Chapter 208: A request from Party A's father

When night falls, the bar street of the Forge Sanctuary ushers in the busiest time of the day.

The dwarves who had finished their work came in groups to the familiar bar, drank their fill, and then went home to rest.

As soon as I got off work, I came to the bar and ordered a meal first, which was a dwarf who was single and had not yet started a family. Dwarves with families usually come to the bar after 8 p.m.

Here, each bar is a circle, and the regular customers in it are basically dwarves from the same industry.

The name and signboard of the bar reflect the characteristics of the circle in the bar, and some bars simply hang swords, armor and other decorations on the door.

When you see a bar with a brick painted on the sign, you know that the bar is a circle engaged in the construction industry.

A dusty dwarf came to the door of a pub and pushed the door of the bull's pub open with all his might, and was about to greet the old fellows as he had done in the past, and then stepped out to look at the sign of the bull pulling a cart of bricks to make sure he was in the wrong place.

Entering the door again, he came to the bar and shouted to the boss behind the bar: "Phil, give me a glass of love water!"

The bar owner took an oak barrel from the wine rack behind him, filled it and snapped his fingers, and a pale blue flame burst out of the glass.

Michael immediately picked up his glass and drank the burning spirits.

(▔o▔)=?“ Ah......h

After a comfortable hiccups, Michael said contentedly, "It's comfortable, it's not in vain that I'll rush all the way back." ”

Phil put away the barrel and asked, "Aren't you helping the Earl of McCaden build a house, why did you run back?"

"Just leave it to my apprentice over there, he should be in charge alone, and I'll come back when I hear that there's a big business." Michael asked for another glass of ale, "What's wrong with everyone? ”

The bar, which used to be not very brightly lit, is now brightly lit, and the usually noisy drinkers are now sitting quietly at the table quietly flipping through a few books, and occasionally the voice is low during the discussion. If it weren't for the smell of wine, others would have thought it was a study room.

Phil placed a large glass of ale in front of Michael and said, "It's not about the money. The elves said that this project must be carried out according to their rules, otherwise there will be no doors. ”

Michael poured two sips of wine, pursed his lips, and said disdainfully, "Elves, they are okay with decoration, but the house is a little bit close." ”

Phil, who was sitting at the back of the bar, said "hehe" twice, "Just go and see what they're looking at." ”

Michael didn't think so, he went to his friend Dennis, who was immersed in his hard work, and borrowed a book, and sat down at the bar to read it.

"Safe and Civilized Construction Standardization Management Manual?" Michael was stunned by the name of the book.

He flipped open the cover and saw a line written on the title page: Safety first.

He was stunned for a moment before turning to the table of contents.

In the table of contents, you can see that this book can be divided into several parts: general principles, safety production management, civilized construction, safety protection, magic use management, mechanical safety and lifting and hoisting, fire protection and temporary facilities, and each part is divided into various details.

Flipping back a few pages, Michael read as intently as the other dwarves.

He soon discovered that the experience he had gained over the years in the construction process was systematically reflected in the book, and many things that he had not noticed in the past were also mentioned in the book. And there are illustrations in the book, so even beginners can understand the meaning.

Michael took a sip of wine after turning a few pages, and when he reached the last page of the book, he ran out of wine.

After returning the books to Dennis, he borrowed two more books from the table, which were titled "A Guide for Construction Workers" and "A Guide for Safety Officers".

After roughly flipping through the two books, Michael drank the first glass of ale in one gulp.

"I can't imagine that there are such powerful experts among the elves. Michael sighed, "With these books, the temple can give him the title of Sage." ”

"Look at the author. Phil said.

Michael realized that he hadn't noticed who the author was, and he flipped through the pages and found that the authors of these books were Charles McGarden.

His cheeks twitched a few times, this wasn't the owner of the house he was up to now.

Then he thought of the legend of the origin of the House of Maccaden, and said, "It would not be strange that such a book could have been written if it were a descendant of that one." ”

Then Dennis came to get back the book that Michael had borrowed, and Michael asked him, "Dennis, where did you buy this book?"

"I can't buy it now. Dennis said, "The elves didn't bring much, and they were sold out in one morning." However, the temple is arranging for the reprinting, and if you want to buy it, you will have to wait a few days. ”

"Here's to you. Dennis handed a piece of parchment to Michael, "If you want to get the elf's project, you have to follow this." ”

Michael took the parchment and was confused when he saw the "Bidding, Bidding Process" written on it.

After seeing half of it carefully, he said a little angrily: "We have to pay the money first when we go to work for them?"

Dennis said unconcernedly: "This is a bid bond, a guarantee that the person bidding will not default." If you don't win the bid, it will be returned, and the winning bid will be automatically converted into a contract deposit, and it will be returned to you after the contract is completed. ”

Michael pinched his brow helplessly, "What other tricks do those elves have, you tell me." ”

After saying that, he asked Phil to serve two glasses of ale.

Dennis drank a small half glass of ale in one go, and then said to him: "This time, the Temple of Life will send someone to supervise the whole process, from materials to quality and safety, and they must sign for the final acceptance......

Meanwhile, Edward and Charles are having tea and chatting at the hotel where they are staying.

Taking advantage of the days when the dwarves were testing the fast-hardening cement, Charles and the others began the bidding process for the first phase of the project.

Edward and the other elves were quite critical of Charles's unprecedentedly strict demands.

At this time, Charles was taking the opportunity to explain to Edward why he was doing so.

"The cycle of training of our fighters is too long. "We have to use this opportunity to establish a system to ensure the quality of the work." We will definitely build more than these projects in the future, and it is better to get things done from the beginning than to improve them after problems arise. We must do everything possible to avoid needless sacrifices on the part of our fighters. ”

Edward said with some concern, "I'm afraid this will discourage the dwarves. ”

"As long as the money is in place, it is not a problem to spend more money than the lives of the soldiers. Charles said confidently, "As long as the money is in place, the dwarves will definitely do what we ask." ”

In the past two days, he has found that the construction people of the two worlds have a lot in common, so he dares to wave the gold coin to make the dwarves obediently listen to the words of Father A.

Seeing that Edward was still a little puzzled, Charles could only say to him: "I am asking for benefits from management, excellent management can improve our efficiency and reduce a lot of unnecessary waste." ”

Charles knew that he would have to be transferred sooner or later, and when he did, he would definitely take Edward's place. When the task of building the stronghold was completed, Edward would definitely be promoted to the leader in charge of battlefield engineering, so he patiently explained his ideas to Edward to avoid the occurrence of political rest.

The senseless scene in the conference room really frightened him. He would inevitably deal with the engineers in the future battles, and he didn't want to die in the endless tussles in the rear.

After Charles "inadvertently" revealed that he would leave sooner or later and that Edward had a bright future, Edward began to think carefully about Charles's series of policies.
