Chapter 120: Powerful Cement

"I'm not blind, of course I know that you went to buy goods, but what kind of goods are your two guards carrying, it won't be high-grade fabrics, right?"

The old lion man had a wooden pipe in his mouth, and the tobacco in the pipe was burning faintly, and white smoke was rising.

Although he said it calmly, his eyes kept staring at the two bags of linen, as if there were a bunch of golden dragons in them.

"Inside is an ancient collection, old smoker, you don't have to ask a few words, in case it is stolen, I will not be lazy on you." Goss glared at him in a calf-like manner.

"Collectibles, what collectibles?"

The old smoker is also a wealthy businessman, and he hasn't done a big business for a few days off recently, and he is idle, and when he hears about the collection, he immediately comes to his heart.

In this era, the orcs kept some rare treasures as collectibles and kept them in their homes to enhance the scene.

The old smoker has a glass ball in his house, which glows in the sun and is very attractive.

The Goss family has a collection of shells with beautiful patterns, crystal orbs, and gold dragon coins issued a hundred years ago, which are either rare collectibles or items full of historical age.

The old smoker shook the soot from his pipe, and stared intently at the bag in the lion man's hand, which looked soft and large, and was not familiar to him in terms of form, so he asked.

"Don't ask, I'll invite you to come and see when I have time." Goss hurriedly pushed the old smoker, but the old smoker was dumbfounded and had to get out of the way.

"As you said, don't forget to invite me to sit down when the time comes." The old smoker was a little angry, but he felt understanding, after all, the collection had not yet entered his house, in case he was robbed, he would naturally wait for others to put it at home for a few days, and then invite others to come into the house to pretend to be forced to bask in his own rare collection.

"Got it."

Goss waved his hand and led the man away quickly.

Fortunately, the Goss family has not yet reached the point where the enemy is everywhere, and two bags of epoch-making objects symbolizing the future direction of the building have been moved into the heavily guarded mansion compound.

The maid with a white apron, dressed in black, with hairpin coils, and cat ears on her head, squatted slightly and said respectfully: "Young master, your father is waiting for you in the house." ”

Goss touched the buttocks of the maid Cat Lady, making the latter slightly red, and then ordered: "Let him come over, save yourself another trip, you tell him that I brought back something very important, and I will wait for him in the back garden." ”

Goss takes the two leonin muscular men away, and the maid goes back to the mansion to find Goss's old father.

After a while, the current patriarch of the Anderson family came to the back garden, and with him was the family priest elder, who heard that Goss had brought back a heavyweight item from Tomorrowtown, and they were all curious about what it was.

"Goss, what the hell is it, so mysterious?"

The patriarch saw that there were fierce men with eight-pack abs standing guard at the gate of the back garden, and the maids were all branched out, and there were all guards inside, and he suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a little serious, not like ordinary items.

"Have you heard of a thing called cement, father?"

"I haven't heard of it."

The old father's lion beard was very long, the muscles of his arms were still very strong, and he was still very strong at the age of fifty.

"The town of tomorrow has a ten-meter wall, and it is said that it will be completed in two months." Goss said, pointing to the ball of flax sacks.

"Oh?" The old lion man brushed his beard, his eyes narrowing slightly.

Originally, he was angry with his son's attitude, but now that his anger is gone, he just wants to know if cement has magical abilities.

At their command, the lionman began to unpack, and the cement bag was quickly unpacked.

The orcs came back and walked around, carrying several large buckets of sun-dried river sand inside, and some orcs brought two large water tanks to prepare for filling the water.

Gather the sand into a cone of sand, then dig out the sand in the middle to form a small pit, put the gray cement powder into the sand pit, fill it with water, and stir it with a long stick.

After a while, a viscous gray liquid bubbled and bubbled, and the bubbles burst out to emit a little white gas.

At this time, a few orcs carried a few loads of green bricks and put them in the small dense forest in the back garden.

Ten orcs with shovels dug into the dirt and dug a small pit to serve as the foundation of the wall.

Lay a layer of cement, cover the brick surface, scrape another layer, green bricks compact, scrape another layer of cement, layer upon layer.

These were simple construction techniques, although they were not skilled at first, but after the skillful movements, the lionmen were very fast, and by the time the moon was in the night sky, they had completed the small two-meter-high wall.

"That's it?"

The old priest of the clan raised his eyebrows, he had not spoken up just now, but it did not mean that he did not doubt it.

The ten-meter city wall was built in two months, bluffing ghosts, anyway, Anderson priest didn't believe it.

"Wait a few hours, and we'll see the results tomorrow." Goss nodded silently, the specific method is like this, it was all said by Allen.

"As far as bricklaying is concerned, it's not complicated, I also saw the whole bricklaying process of Hou Slave at the time, and the only difficulty is that the cement setting time is not as fast as Alan said." Fox straightened his lion's tail, and the whole person was excited and expectant.

Before there was no cement mortar, the main method of building the walls of the Lionheart Kingdom was to use lime and water to form a binder to attach the bricks.

However, the lime mortar is not stable, and it cannot be built into a tall city wall, and it takes two or three days to finally set, and it is also very brittle, and it is easy to be shattered by the minotaur with a shaking fist to break the lime mortar gaps between the bricks and bricks.

Like the twenty-meter fortress wall in Moonlight Valley, it is actually not stable enough and needs to be maintained by the lion people all year round.

Next.

Goss and the others returned to a dense forest in the heavily guarded back garden, and saw a quiet city wall standing in an open space, about sixty or seventy centimeters wide, more than three meters long, and two meters high.

The patriarch stepped forward first and struck a blow with a sledgehammer.

Bang, the cement brick wall is motionless, and there is a little crack on the surface of the green brick.

The green bricks they bought were not of good quality enough, and they were not good bricks fired in Tomorrow Town, so they naturally could not resist cold weapons without damage.

"I used seventy percent of my strength, and the walls that I usually built with lime mortar should have had a lot of gray cracks, but now they are completely gone." Satisfied, Patriarch Anderson then slammed Fox against the wall with the strength of the Awoken.

Whew, a big hammer swept over, the wall was smashed, and the green bricks cracked more tomorrow's cracks, but the cement gaps between the bricks and bricks were not the slightest abnormal.

"Ninety percent strength." Fawkes's chest bulged slightly, and he had used ninety percent of his strength just now.

"Good, good, very good, it's only been one night, the two-meter-high cement brick wall is so strong, wouldn't it form an invincible city wall after half a month." The bearded and white-bearded old priest laughed loudly.

Before, he didn't believe in the miraculous effect of cement, seeing is believing and immediately changed his view, and he also thought of a sentence that Goss mentioned last night, cement has not been fully hardened, and it needs to be cared for, covered with wet sacks every day, watered and moisturized.

The approximate time is about half a month, and then the cement will be in a complete state.
