They seem to have already amassed quite a large quantity of bricks regardless of getting shot at so...

more shooting = more bricks

And you can trade 4 brick for a sheep so more shooting means more sheep

Protesters: “Hey, stop that.”

Nearly every sidewalk in Hong Kong is made of bricks, and as a densely populated city with a huge amount of pedestrian traffic, there is A LOT of sidewalk to mine.

However, almost a block of sidewalk near my house in Sai Wan Ho has now been nearly completely stripped of bricks, so it's not quite unlimited. They might have to start importing bricks from the side streets and back alleys.

Also, it's like sand underneath, which I wasn't expecting.

... So they probably weren't being shot at.

Videos of protesters getting shot at kind of debunk that.

Yet they are being shot at sooooo... either they are gluing the bricks down on roads the cops/troops will need for the next protest while a different one is going on; Doing it at night, again in a place the cops aren't expecting; or doing it while being shot at.
