Chapter 370:Rhythm
Three days later, Roland received a positive reply from the honeysuckle eldest son.
"I am willing to continue to work for you, and so will the honeysuckle family."He said, "I'll convince my father that he's not like everybody else."
"Yes," said Roland, in a happy mood, "so best."
“These days, I’ve witnessed amazing changes in your territory... Presumably, this is the city I’d expect,” Pero said bluntly. “If honeysuckle could become so prosperous, my father would not mind the family and the new city.”
This sentence made the prince feel a little touched, and the purpose of calling the other party was originally only derived from two points: one is that such a major event is more sincere in the face, and the other is to observe his attitude towards the order, and I did not expect to have this effect.He nodded, “Of course, every piece of land in the Grey Fort can become a comfortable place for the people to live in for as long as time goes by.”
“Then I will return to the fortress as soon as possible and tell my father the news.”
"There are four others, and the whole nobility of the West," added Roland, "that the new city will accept the new city, regardless of the fact that it is necessary to accept them."You can have a feast at Fortress Castle and spread my word."
“You mean, let me inform them?”Peel nodded.
"Yes," laughed the prince, "this time... you shall be my Ambassador."
“Follow your orders, Your Highness,” the honeysuckle-wielding son said.
As he was about to leave, Roland stopped him, “Yes, you’ve done a great job of witchcraft, and you don’t need to hide it anymore.”People who still have expectations and cling to the church can all be cleared out of the West.What to do, you decide for yourself.”
“Yes.”
After Pero Hermon retreated, Roland stretched out a lazy waist and continued to look at the various engineering profiles of the city hall statistics.
Affected by heavy snowfall, the construction of the royal estate has long been suspended, and the construction of residential buildings has been slow, and only some decoration work has been carried out indoors.Fortunately, the large number of earthen kiln caves built before Lian left basically meets the needs of subsequent refugees, and even if the number of refugees continues to increase, they only need to plug more people in each cave – this is the advantage of the fire shop.
According to the Ministry of Construction, at least 60% of the workers are currently in a state of nothing to do, which makes some temporary recruitment issued by the city hall, such as clearing the snow on the streets, the transportation of blast furnaces, and so on.If in other cities, it is inconceivable that so many people are eager to work in the evil moon, it is the most difficult day for the civilian population to live, and most people stay at home and rely on the food saved in autumn to live.However, in Roland's eyes, seeing so many laborers idle always feel reluctant, and the mind calculated that perhaps something should be done and make it all better to use them all.
After all, the Margari Chamber of Commerce dragged away the last steam engine of the year, and the town hall had plenty of money and food, and he had a lot of plans to implement.
Thinking of this, Roland asked the Guard to call the Minister of Construction, Carl Fanbert.
After giving his idea, Karl couldn’t help but stare at his eyes, “Do you want the stonemasons and masons to build your ship?”
He nodded and said solemnly, "Yes, the location is located near the dock, with wood to set up a temporary factory building, the indoor fire pot to ensure the temperature, after construction can be directly pushed into the water."
“But, sir, how could they possibly know how to make such a thing?”
“Of course, it’s like building a witch building,” Roland pulled out a piece of paper and a drawing, “the templates, the steel bars, the concrete... the first ship I’ll guide you in the construction, and you’ll supervise the ships behind you, so you can use all the workers.”
Karl looked doubtfully at the sketch, “Is this... a basin?”
He couldn't help but straighten his mouth, "Yes, a huge cement basin."
Since the construction of the small town number Carl was not involved, it is not surprising that this idea was made.In fact, in the long development process of the ship, it has experienced several changes in form, and there is not even much inheritance before and after.Let Roland design a classical wooden boat with keel, he naturally can not know, but the construction of cement ship is essentially and pinch a model with mud is no different, as long as you can float up.The same is true of steel ships, due to the advancement of welding technology, most modern hulls have abandoned the practice of laying keel, but changed to a section of steel box segmented splicing, the bottom plate as a whole force, do not need to master the manufacturing method of wooden ships in advance.
With regard to the new batch of cement boats, he has been thinking about it for a long time - whether it is mining coal resources near the snowy mountains, or transporting refugees, it needs a batch of higher-load inland water boats to carry out the task, so the low-water flat design is still the most suitable choice.Compared with the conservative design of the town, the new ship's hull can be longer, while ensuring load and stability while improving the speed.At the same time, in order to reduce the difficulty of construction, Roland finally decided to use the bright wheel propulsion system, which has been experimented on the wooden boat, and the craftsmen are more easy to use.
“Your Highness, how many people are you going to put in to build this... cement boat?”Carl asked with some quiver.
“Call all the idle workers together, just like a residential building, and you can start several at a time.”
In this way, the newly assembled steam engine in the factory has a useful place even if it cannot be sold.The kiln area can also continue to burn cement without stopping work, which can be described as more.Until the next year, if you can have a large cement fleet, the first army regardless of the attack, it is equivalent to reliable logistics.
After this, Roland planned to go to the castle back garden to see.
The olive trees and vines planted in the leaves provide a place to block the wind and snow, and if there is no work at hand, the witches generally practice their abilities in the garden, and the new white paper should be no exception.
Listening to Wendy's report, her ability was neither like regulating temperature nor like material reduction, and in addition to water, the effect on other objects was very small, which made Roland curious.Now it has been three days, the little girl should no longer be as timid and afraid as when she first arrived, but it is better to wait and see for yourself.
As soon as he entered the garden, Roland noticed something strange.
A lush sight, as if completely isolated from the snow-white world outside - olive trees are evergreen trees, there are vines between branches, snowflakes can not fall in, but these plants are too vibrant.And unlike the silent woods, there is no cold wind blowing, but a grass and a tree are gently swinging, neat and rich rhythm.
He thought it was an illusion, but as he went deeper into it, he saw the branches of the olive tree hanging down, as if he were bowing his head to himself, and the grass at his feet fell to one side, as if to meet his own arrival.
This feeling made Roland a little creepy, with goosebumps behind it, feeling that he was not walking in the garden, but walking through the body of a huge creature.
The whole garden was breathing.
