"One, two, three! Ready to get bricks! Be careful not to burn! ”

After a whole day of discussions, like a vegetable market, perhaps ten times more chaotic, the peasants decided to put up the bathhouse first. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Well, no matter what God and his old man mean, if you want us to take a bath, you have to let us build the place first.

Otherwise, taking a cold shower, or in the early spring when the cold has not yet dissipated, is really killing people.

Magnus, on the other hand, was happy to see the idea come to fruition.

To build a bathhouse, there must be two prerequisites, one is a ditch, and the other is bricks. With a ditch, water from the river far outside the city could be diverted into the bathhouse, and with bricks, the bathhouse could be built.

Ditches, ditches are good things, irrigation crops, drought prevention and drainage, which are inseparable from ditches, although the one dug now is just for water diversion, but it can also be regarded as an experiment, besides, with the first one, will the second one be far away?

As for brick, its use is even greater.

Building cities, paving roads, building bridges, building houses, it makes people no longer have to be drenched in the rain, and people no longer have to blow the wind, so to speak, since the Bronze Age, human beings are under the protection of bricks step by step to develop and grow.

Not to mention that bricks can also be used to build kilns.

Whether it is a brick kiln or a blast furnace for ironmaking - the latter is particularly important.

The reason why the iron-smelting technology of ancient China was higher than that of Europa, and even we can proudly claim that our iron tools were stronger than these barbarians in the Middle Ages during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, is mostly due to this blast furnace.

It was not until the 16th century that the Europa people learned to make iron in blast furnaces.

The Renaissance was in the fourteenth century.

You may not believe it, but in the whole Middle Ages, no one had ever seen the bright molten iron that brought humanity from barbarism to civilization!

The reason is simple, the temperature of burning iron into molten iron has to reach 1500°C, and it is not difficult to reach this temperature, but what is needed to withstand such an astonishing high temperature?

You know, even if it is real gold, which is known as 'not afraid of fire', its melting point is only 1000°C.

Without bricks, there would be no blast furnace, without blast furnace, there would be no molten iron, without molten iron, large-scale ironware manufacturing would just be a beautiful dream.

Therefore, Magnus fully supported the construction of the bathhouse, and in his mind, the focus has now shifted from 'bathing the peasants' to 'expanding the production of bricks'.

This cannot be blamed for his rapid change of heart, it can only be said that time has passed, and his personal preferences are far less than the development of the whole of Brittany.

And speaking of Brittany, after searching the entire dukedom, Magnus really turned out a few bricklayers with ancestral craftsmanship.

Although they were bricklayers, even they lived in thatched huts, and their main business was farming, and if Magnus had been ten years late, it was estimated that this craft would have really become extinct in Brittany.

Found the bricklayer, and then it was time to burn the bricks.

Burning bricks, there is nothing to say about this matter, they are all ancestral crafts, the East is no different from the West, digging soil and mud, removing bricks, drying bricks, loading kilns, igniting, burning bricks, bricks, bricks.

The only thing worth mentioning is that because there is no brick kiln, the first batch of bricks is the most troublesome to burn, and it all depends on manpower to dry it little by little; In order to avoid this, the Magnuster bricklayers could find suitable materials for themselves from the ruins of the tower.

I just don't know if the Duke of Brittany in the sky will vomit blood if he knows it.

What the bricklayer master said just now is to remind the apprentice to be careful, if he is burned by the heat when the furnace is just opened, no matter how light it is, it will be a serious burn, and there is no cure in this era.

Master, this is another great idea that Magnus came up with.

Masters and apprentices are nothing new in this era, but the treatment given by Magnus is somewhat extraordinary.

A master bricklayer with five apprentices, all of whom were innocent, shrewd and capable children from among the serfs, Magnus promised them that once they had learned to become teachers, not only them, but also their parents would be freed from slavery and become free men.

Freely.

*******。

Just hearing this term brought tears to the eyes of serfs.

Even this freedom is limited.

Contrary to what most people think, free people do not mean that they can go wherever they want, they are still bound to the land of the nobility, and they have to report to the chief before going far away.

But becoming a free man means that the noble lord can no longer take people's lives for no reason; Moreover, after serving free labor, the noble lord could no longer force free men to work.

These conditions alone were worth risking their lives for the serfs to pursue.

For those bricklayers who were freemen, Magnus offered more generous terms.

It's the same as the knight.

Except that there were no villages as fiefdoms, these masters were treated the same as knights.

Although Odegar has a lot of complaints about this (mainly because the cost is too high), Magnus, whose soul comes from the future, knows that science and technology are the primary productive forces.

These bricklayers, although they are not called scientists, are also rare talents of the times.

For talent, Magnus has always been unstinting with rewards.

The consequence of this is that, in addition to the bricklayer, other inexplicable craftsmen have also sprung up, such as bricklayers, masons, and astrologers.

What the hell is the last one?

And the pie is quite big, a black robe and black robe, his face is hidden in the dark, if he didn't take the initiative to identify himself, it is estimated that the guards would have regarded him as an assassin.

But it's just a daughter to buy horse bones, anyway, no matter how poor Magnus is, there is no problem at all in raising an idler until he is old.

Magnus knew that although most of these 'alchemists' were just playing tricks, there were a few who were occasionally used, and such alchemists were also one of the driving forces behind Europa's technological progress in the Dark Ages.

Moreover, because of the attitude of the Church, the group of alchemists is very small.

They can be nobles, knights, or even farmers, as long as they don't actively reveal their identity, even if he is standing in front of you, you will not recognize him.

Magnus hopes that through this inexplicable astral magician, more alchemists will be able to take the initiative to take the initiative, so that even if his starting point is not high at the beginning - although everyone is not high - he can still get a quick increase.
