Rebirth from Conan

Chapter 213 Two pieces of news
A week later.

The housing construction project officially started.

Pat and four other sheriffs began to build the foundation on an open space at the end of the village near the foot of the mountain.

The wood used was naturally mass-produced by Xia He using the skill of [Turning Waste into Trees].

It is precisely because of this that the villagers who have never seen Pat and his men cutting wood are now curious about where these people got so many planks.

"The length and width are both about 20 meters. It seems a bit tight to live with nine people in a 200-square-meter house... How about building a second floor and let Minnie Ann and her family live upstairs, and we men live downstairs. This way, we can protect their privacy and safety."

Xia He folded his arms across his chest, standing in the open space and planning with an air of adultery.

After saying that, he took a cup of water from Minian and took a big gulp of it.

The rich aroma of milk instantly filled his mouth.

The milk in the cup was certainly not obtained on this island.

Instead, it was discovered by Xia He during the treasure hunt when he saved Pat nearly a month ago.

【Name: Beverage Converter (Enhanced Edition)】

[Type: props]

[Effect: Place the converter into water (fresh water, river water, sea water), and it will be converted into the drink you want to drink]

[From the "Doraemon" dimension - Doraemon's Treasure Pocket]

After getting this thing, Xia He turned it into pure milk to drink every day, which perfectly solved the problem of protein supplementation he needed during his growth.

"Build two floors? Then this amount of wood doesn't seem to be enough." Pat scratched his head.

"It's okay. I'll take as much wood as you want. I'll find some time to go to a deserted place and make some more." Xia He said nonchalantly, then he took out a design from his pocket and handed it to Pat. "This is the interior structure of the house I drew last night. There is a living room, a dining room, and eight rooms. You move four of the rooms upstairs, and then build a staircase at the position I circled. There will be about twenty steps, each step is sixteen centimeters, and the height of the floor is three meters and two meters. It should look something like this."

Pat reached out and took the blueprint.

After taking a look at the extremely clear structure and the very rigorous numbers marked on it, my inner wonder and admiration for Xia He increased a little more.

"Okay, I will try my best to complete the task!"

Pat nodded, feeling motivated.

Obviously, after a month, he has completely recovered from the trauma of being betrayed by his spouse.

Karavis Island has become a thing of the past, and now he is a resident of Koizumi Village, Roccadilli Island.

The other four sheriffs thought the same thing.

"From now on, this will be our home."

They all muttered to themselves.

Driven by this thought, the movement of carrying the wooden board in his hands became faster and faster.

……

"From now on we will live in Zuoshan Village for a long time."

"I have surveyed this place and it is suitable for development. Based on the knowledge in my mind, within five years, I should be able to completely transform this place into a completely different place."

Xia He sat beside the mountain stream, holding Dousha, looking down at Pat and others who were busy below, and said to Minnie.

"But there is a problem right now. Once the economy of this island develops, there will definitely be a lot of pirates passing through here. Without anyone to protect us, it will be difficult for me, Pat and the others to protect the peace of this island."

This is exactly what he is most worried about.

After all, this is the Age of Discovery, and strength is respected in all seas.

"Delicious fat meat" like Roccadilli Island that has no owner is the most likely to attract pirate groups.

"Then let's just stay like this and be content with the status quo," said Minnie An.

She still enjoys the peace she has now.

It would be great if I could live in this place with my parents forever without worries.

"Meow!" Dousha called softly. "What's wrong, Dousha, are you hungry?" Xia He touched its head.

Just as he finished speaking, a news bird flew overhead.

It was the first time that Xia He saw this thing. He stood up immediately and waved his arms at him, saying, "Hey, here! Here! Give me a newspaper!"

"Gu~~!"

Out of the corner of his eye he noticed Xia He, the news bird lowered its flying altitude, and then slowly landed in front of Xia He and Minnie Ann.

"Gu!" It picked up a newspaper and handed it to Xia He.

Xia He reached out to take it, and was impatient to open it and read the news on it, but the news bird pecked the back of his hand with its beak.

"Cuckoo!"

"Uh, I almost forgot."

Xia He searched his pockets awkwardly, and after finding that he didn't have even a penny of Bailey on him, he immediately turned his gaze to Minian.

"Don't look at me, I don't have any money either..." Minian spread her hands.

At that time, she was busy taking her parents to escape. The Bailey her father had saved from years of shipbuilding must have been burned to ashes by the fire of Village Chief Valentine.

Therefore, let alone five hundred Baileys, she would definitely not be able to pay even fifty Baileys.

"Gu!" Seeing this, the news bird flapped its wings twice angrily and tried to snatch the newspaper from Xia He's hand.

"Wait a moment."

Xia He quickly retracted his hand, then took out the bone knife he made on the uninhabited island from his arms, handed it to the news bird and said, "This thing is made of wild animal bones. If you sell it in a weapon shop, you can get at least 10,000 Baileys. You're getting a bargain by exchanging it for a newspaper."

"Goo?"

Newsbird glanced at the bone knife handed to him by Xia He.

Just when he was about to refuse, he felt a murderous intent in Xia He's eyes.

Newsbird: "."

"Goo!"

So it quickly put the bone knife into its backpack, then spread its wings and flew away quickly.

Minnian blinked and reached out to catch a feather dropped by a newsbird from the air.

at the same time.

Xia He opened the newspaper and began to read the recent news.

"The Kingdom of Frevans has been completely destroyed by the World Government, and the Platinum Lead Disease has been successfully eradicated. No one will be infected in the future..."

Haiyuan calendar year 1506.

The Kingdom of Frevans...

Platinum lead disease...

It turned out to be the case.

Is it this time period?
In that case, Trafalgar Law should be joining the Donquixote Pirates soon?

He rubbed his chin.

as predicted.

The title of the next news is about the Don Quixote Pirates.

"Recently, the Don Quixote Pirates have been spotted near Swan Island, and several warships have been sunk by them..."

Swan Island?
"It's a good thing I chose this Roccadilli Island a month ago."

Looking at the words on the title, Xia He couldn't help but twitching the corners of his mouth and muttered to himself.
