Did they put the blocks into place with their economic activity?
... yes, labor is generally a pretty key piece of economic activity. There's extensive archeological evidence about the processes of Ancient Egyptian economics, including discussions of obligation, payment, negotiation, etc.
No, the workers literally put them into place but the economic activity around them provided the food and drink and whatnot to the labourers.
