Chapter 685: Accident at the Construction Site

Just as Zhang Xiaowei was about to interrupt Lu Xueyou to let him continue talking about sand, Tian Xiaomai raised a question first.

"If you say stone is harder to work with than wood, doesn't that mean working with stone requires higher building skills?"

Facing this question, Lu Xueyou laughed even harder.

"You're completely wrong about that. If you really want to compare, wood is even harder to work with. After all, stone is just tough and hard to transport, just look at these carpenters and how many mortise and tenon joints they have to work with."

"Besides, there's also the carving on top of that, which is much more complicated than working with stone. Not to mention, in order to slow down the wood's decay, they also have to apply lacquer and other anti-corrosion treatments, something you don't have to deal with when working with stone."
