Chapter VI Plough Drawings
Sean looked at the five carpenters found by Duru, handed the drawings to one of the carpenters and said, "Can the farm tools of this drawing be made?" ”
"My lord, I've never seen this farming tool before, but this one is really cleverly designed, where did you get the blueprints, my lord. ”
"Lord forgiveness, I can't help but get carried away when I see the ingenious drawings. Look at this shape should be used for ploughing, the material at the bottom of this sharp point is not easy to find, and iron ore may be used. The rest of the constructs shouldn't be a problem. The carpenter knelt on the ground and quickly apologized, his eyes still staring at the drawings in his hand and said.
"Very well, Druux, you go to the castle and take out some iron ore and let him find a blacksmith to build, and make sure that you make ten of the plows in the image within two days, and you are solely responsible for this. ”
"As for you, you communicate with Deru about the cost of building 10 ploughs, and the image will rot in your hands. If I find out that the drawings are circulating, you should know the consequences. Sean said lightly.
When the five carpenters heard this, they quickly knelt on the ground and trembled and said, "Don't dare, Lord Lord, we will definitely complete the task, and the image will only rot in our hands." ”
"Duru, take them down, and be sure to supervise them to complete this thing. ”
......
At the castle's dining room table, Sean looked at the white bread and grilled bacon in front of him. Sean also didn't care about etiquette and asked, "Duru, isn't there anything else for dinner?Does the castle cook only make white bread and bacon?Isn't there no seafood or anything else?"
Hearing Sean's complaints, Du Lu looked at Sean for a moment, and then said in a helpless tone: "Lord Lord, the only grain brought from the Initial Continent is wheat flour and bacon. And now that the lords are all cultivating the wasteland, there is no way to arrange for the lords to catch seafood, and you have issued a decree prohibiting the hunting of wild beasts, so there is no way for the time being, sorry. ”
"Okay, I know, let's eat, I still have things to arrange after eating. Sean frowned and swallowed the dinner in front of him, feeling that his previous life was not as frowning as he had been in this world for a week.
"Alright, after dinner, you can report on the progress of today's events. ”
"Lord Lord, about 150 acres of wasteland have been cultivated today, and we can continue to increase it every day at this pace. It is estimated that 1,500 acres of arable land can be reclaimed before planting. Joyce said.
"1,500 acres is too little, and I expect to open up at least 3,500 acres. Sean shook his head.
"Lord Lord......" Joyce stood up anxiously, for Sean's goal, Joyce felt incredible, according to Sean's plan, if he really completed all 3500 acres of arable land, then he would miss the best opportunity to cultivate, he felt the need to explain to Sean the knowledge of land reclamation.
Sean waved his hand and motioned for Joyce to sit down.
"I know what you're worried about, I've already arranged this matter, if things go well, the 3,500 acres of cultivated land will only increase, not decrease. In addition, the main work of your reclamation in the past two days is to clean up all the weeds in the wasteland with fire, and pay attention to the fire barrier, I don't want the fire to spread uncontrollably. The weeds that have been cut are dried and stored first, and I have other arrangements. ”
"My lord, I don't know what your plan is, because the stakes are very important, so ......" Joyce still asked without giving up, if there is any accident in the cultivation of the wasteland, then there will be a major crisis in the future food of the island.
"Well, this is the end of the problem, I promise that there will be no delay in the time of planting, and I will do what I ask. Sean looked at Joyce and still wanted to ask, and couldn't help but take out the identity of the lord and force the order.
Although the carpenter had promised to make plough tools, it was not yet the last moment, and Sean felt that he could not be careless. And as a lord, he didn't need to explain too much to the officials below, and even if the plough tool failed, the land would be cleared faster with fire than by cutting.
"Yes, my lord. Joyce replied with a reluctant bow.
Sean looked at the main officials of the three territories in front of him, and he knew in his heart that except for Dulu, the other two probably thought that he was an arbitrary and dictatorial person, and Sean did not intend to explain, because the facts in the future were the best explanation.
"Duru, how is the recruitment of the Lords going today. Sean then turned to Duru.
"Lord Hui, the craftsmen and teachers have all been recruited. ”
"Very well, the toilets and fecal fermentation houses that I planned should be made as soon as possible. In addition, you should build a row of fences in the open space a little further east of the castle, and the area should be large, and the trees should be taken from the same place, and the gaps between the fences should be surrounded by wooden thorns to prevent wild beasts from entering and leaving, and I have arranged for this fence separately. ”
"In addition, a few thatched huts of various sizes were built inside the fence, and wild animals might be kept in the future. Sean thought for a moment and continued to add.
He had already instructed the hunters to hunt the beasts, and although he didn't know what the results were, he was prepared in advance to avoid any accidents.
"Okay, lord, I'll arrange it tomorrow. ”
Sean nodded with satisfaction, it would be better to be the butler Duru, all the arrangements would be properly executed, and everything would be centered on him.
"Your Excellency, the teenagers you asked for have been identified, and there are a total of fifteen who are eligible, all of whom are 16-year-olds. Two days later, your 16th birthday will be your swordsman training. Without waiting for Sean to ask, Taylor took the initiative to bow down and report.
"Very well, everything has to be done according to plan, and if you need to recruit civil servants, you can arrange it yourself. Sean finished his instructions and went back to the bedroom.
"Hope everything goes well. Sean muttered.
......
In the side room of the castle, Joyce was anxiously circling the room, and when he saw the arrival of Duru and Taylor, he hurriedly pulled the two of them and said urgently: "You two don't help me persuade the lord, now the lord is still young, and many things are not considered, this is the time when we need help to correct, and you didn't say a word." ”
"And such a major matter as cultivating the wasteland, if the best opportunity is missed, the destruction of Sean Island is only not far away, how can this be worthy of the sustenance of the lord's father. ”
Before Durroux and Taylor sat down, Joyce couldn't stand it anymore.
"Joyce, don't be impatient for a while, the lord has his own arrangements like this, don't worry, if it really doesn't work, let's persuade the lord again, if you can't delay it for a few days, you should buy a lesson for the lord." Taylor looked at Joyce as anxious as an ant on a hot pan and couldn't help but comfort him.
But Duru sat down in his chair without hurry, poured a glass of water calmly, and drank it slowly.
"Okay, you Duru, you still have the heart to drink water, you are a housekeeper, this matter should be explained to the lord, not only do you not explain, but you also drink water leisurely like this, which makes me angry. Joyce's face flushed, and he pointed at Duru and shouted in a suppressed voice.
"Alright, well, you're not afraid to scare me, an old fellow. Taylor is right, the lord has his own arrangements for doing this, haven't you noticed the changes in the lord in the past two days? It's really like when the lord was young. Duru shook his head as if nostalgically recalling the time when he was with Sean's father when he was young.
"You still have the heart to reminisce here, you two are really calm. Joyce was so angry that he snatched Durau's glass of water and drank it down.
"Don't worry, the lord doesn't look like he has no plan, and after inspecting the wasteland at noon, he took out a tool drawn by the lord named "plow", and the craftsmen were amazed at the ingenuity of the design of this plow. It is estimated that the confidence of the lord lies in this. ”
"Whether it is the eagle's wings or the child's nonsense, we will see in two days. I'm old, so I won't nag you anymore. After Duru finished speaking, he patted his waist with his hand and slowly walked out of the room.
"Ploughs?" Joyce looked at Taylor, who shook his head and walked out of the room.
