Chapter 161 It’s so delicious
The orcs worked until dark, and the second floor of the building was almost completed.
Daven slept very well tonight.
With Xiaomo by his side, looking at him with such concern, Daven even had sweet dreams.
As the sun rises and sets, the construction of the villa continues.
Kai led the Eagle guards, took Xiaomo and the beast kings to pick up the most beautiful shells.
They forged iron hammers and continuously polished the shells to make them smooth, then used the paste they made themselves to glue them firmly together bit by bit.
The windows are all wooden lattice windows with shell-made tiles as glass, which are beautiful and light-transmitting.
Xiaomo brought Attis and made green tiles in advance using clay.
Various pebbles taken from the stream and various colors of granite collected from the mountains were used to make the exterior walls of the villa.
Except for a small part of wooden furniture that is fixed with nails, most of the wooden furniture uses mortise and tenon structure, which is strong and smooth.
Because the iron furnace was relatively large, Xiao Mo asked the snake clan's guards to dig out a large basement and place the iron furnace underground to reduce the space occupied.
They even built a drainage system, which, although not very advanced, allowed wastewater and other garbage to be discharged outside the villa.
In just one month, a luxurious six-story villa with each floor covering more than 500 square meters, a terrace on each floor and a basement was built.
The furniture inside is complete. Although not as complicated as that in modern society, there are tables, chairs, tea tables, dining tables, and beds.
The wood of the Tiger Tribe is not only strong, but also has different textures and colors.
Some are natural wood color, some are red sandalwood color, and some are dark brown.
The furniture produced has a smooth surface, various colors, and exudes a faint wood fragrance.
Looks better than painted wood.
Aunt Julie had been busy making animal-hide quilts and laying out every bed.
For the red bricks in the room, Xiaomo did not apply cement or white powder. Instead, he polished all the red bricks finely and filled the gaps between them with gypsum powder, making them look neat and beautiful.
The yard was quite large, and the large stones that had been carried here were not used. Xiao Mo asked the lion guards to build a courtyard wall with them. It was very simple and solid.
Xiaomo also spread the remaining pebbles and stone strips in the yard.
No need to walk on the grass and get your feet wet on rainy days.
The villa was finally completed before late autumn.
The heroes who built the villa were all rejoicing in the villa's yard.
Sero was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth.
What kind of divine residence is this?
He had been digging holes in the ground all his life and had never imagined that houses could be built so high.
He just digs underground.
"Xiao Mo, you are so amazing," Sero looked up at the villa, but due to his short stature, he couldn't even see the top of the villa, "Even if I dreamed, I could never imagine that there is such a tall and beautiful house in the world."
"Ha, this is all thanks to Atis and the others," Xiaomo said with a smile, "Not only can you dream about it, you can even live in it."
"Really?" Sero clapped his hands with a smile, "Haha, thank you so much, Xiaomo," he frowned again, "But, I only like living in a cave. Otherwise, I will take over the cave in this yard. I want to dig a big, deep cave and live comfortably in it."
"That's fine," Xiaomo said, "We are still good neighbors."
"Xiaomo, let's hold a celebration ceremony this afternoon," Artis walked over to Xiaomo, "The villa is finished, and everyone is very happy."
"Yes, of course," Xiaomo said. "We still have plenty of time this afternoon. The iron smelting furnaces have not been dismantled yet. How about we make some roasted whole lamb, roasted venison or something to entertain everyone?"
"Okay," Artis nodded, "There are still a lot of stoves, enough to bake anything."
"Artis, you should be in charge of the barbecue," Xiaomo said with a smile, "I'll tell you a secret. I also made some grain wine. I don't know if you beastmen have ever drunk it, but it's not much. Everyone should try it."
"What is wine?" Daven came over curiously. "I've never heard of it."
"You'll know after you drink it," Xiaomo pretended to be mysterious. "Anyway, in our world, we all like to drink this when there's any celebration."
"Xiao Mo, I haven't heard of it either." Kai also said. His Eagle Clan was considered relatively advanced, but Kai had never heard of it either.
"Gaiyi, in fact, it's all thanks to the food you sent over," Xiaomo said, "I made wine with the glutinous rice you sent."
Xiaomo remembers that when she was very young, her grandfather used koji flowers to make koji, which could be fermented with cooked glutinous rice to make rice wine.
By chance, Xiaomo found a plant of Polygonum multiflorum in the Lion Clan. The flowers on it were in full bloom, so she secretly tried it.
It actually turned into rice wine.
Although she didn't know if the taste was purer than her grandfather's rice wine, when Xiaomo opened the stone jar sealed with animal skin, she smelled a particularly strong aroma of the wine.
"I'll explain it to you when you start drinking it," Xiaomo said with a smile, "I just started making it, so I don't know what the alcohol content is. You can all try it."
Xiaomo doesn’t drink alcohol herself.
She just thought the wine smelled nice, but when she licked it, she choked and started coughing.
She didn't dare drink.
Attis and the lion guards were grilling whole lambs, whole deer, and whole chickens...
Xiaomo gathered together all the things that could hold wine.
There wasn't much wine, and each orc got about half a cup.
Dozens of whole roasted lambs were roasted at the same time, and batch after batch of roasted meat was served to the guards.
Xiaomo took out the rice wine from the cellar.
The wines had been settling for a while but were still slightly cloudy.
It feels like rice soup that has been used to soak rice.
The guards began to eat the meat with big mouthfuls and sip the rice wine in their hands.
They all exclaimed in surprise.
"It's delicious, so delicious," the guards shouted in unison, "What is this? It's so delicious."
Artis took a bite.
The unique aroma of wine wafts into your nose and penetrates your heart.
This was a feeling he had never had before.
The aroma of wine is everywhere, and the unique fragrance lingers in the air, making people intoxicated in this mysterious taste.
"Xiaomo, is this wine?" Artis couldn't help but exclaimed, "Not only is it delicious, it seems to have a unique fragrance, mellow in the mouth, and long aftertaste..."
The orcs found it hard to believe that there was such a delicious liquid in the world that tasted like water.
After taking just one sip, Zero began to feel dizzy.
It was holding a small stone cup and spinning in circles on the ground.
"It tastes good, it tastes good," Sero said dazedly, "Xiaomo, is there any more? I want to drink all this wine!"
