Chapter 72: It's Not Just the City Walls That Fall, It's the Heart That Falls!
For the next few days, the inhabitants of Drifting Snow City will be able to witness a magical scene, as their great lord, Leoclough, has set up a shed in front of the ruins of the castle and simply began to squat and work in the open air like an old peasant.
In the afternoon, the leaders of several town halls faced the sun, and I don't know where to get a few horses, a low table, a teacup of an old cadre, and a thick military coat began to fight each other.
"The patrol needs a fund! The gates of the outpost are almost gone, and there is no control."
"If it falls, it will fall, doesn't the teacher still sleep on the open cover?"
"Blackstone Town has applied for explosives again, can you let them save some use, and if you can dig by hand, you can use less explosives."
"Standing and talking doesn't hurt your back, you dig it up"
A few students and subordinate stewards spit and flew around, saying that they were nothing more than people! Money! Material! , Leo has long been surprised by this, there is no place for his own interjection, he is more like a mascot of the town, just pat the table when they are arguing.
Inadvertently turned his head and glanced at the ruins of the castle, and there was another heartache, the pain of myocardial infarction, it costs money to clean up the wreckage, and it costs money to rebuild it, and I can't afford to lose that person if I don't cover it.
It would take a lot of time to clean up such a huge amount of rubble, and during this time, in addition to dealing with the affairs accumulated during this time, Leo also began to seriously consider designing a serious house for himself.
Completely ignoring what a few students were discussing, he seriously began to think about having a bathroom in the house first, and now Drifting Snow City has also begun to build public toilets, otherwise the sanitary situation is really worrying, and some people even pour domestic water directly into the ornamental canal.
The sewer of the new house should be specially laid all the way, and the underground pipes of Drifting Snow City are now completely made of pottery pipes, which are low cost and have good sealing and will not corrode, the only drawback is that it is fragile, and it will be chiseled through if you are not careful during construction.
"There is also a water supply, and it is not easy to get sick by washing your hands frequently"
"The teacher has a vision, let's put this matter on the agenda!"
"Mm-hmm, the teacher is right"
“???”
What's in your heart again?
Talking to himself inexplicably picked up the topic of the topic, was he discussing medical and health issues just now? Seeing the adoring looks of several students, they were embarrassed to say anything, so they could only continue to bow their heads and ponder.
How do you supply tap water? Water tower style? No, the geographical location of Drifting Snow City will be directly frozen, and it can only be buried for insulation, and the pottery pipe will freeze and crack, let's consider trying the cast iron pipe first, but the water supply should still bear the minimum amount.
Your home should have not only water, but also hot water! This should be possible with a boiler, and it is no longer possible to endure a piece of ice floating on the hot water that has been prepared in advance on the way to wash and scrub in the harsh winter.
As a private residence, it is still a set of courtyard walls, leaving only one entrance, and the front courtyard is planting some green plants and flower beds, and the design template of the garden house seems to be good.
"Is it better to expand the area a little bit? Anyway, there is a lot of open space."
As soon as I looked up, I found that I had accidentally muttered what I was thinking about again, and several students had adoring expressions on their faces, and they didn't know what topic they had poked again, okay, you guys are happy.
Almost at the same time that Leo set out to meet the Iron Country, the Land of Sand had already prepared the first batch of mines, which were originally to be dedicated to the Empire, but now there is no need for this, and they are packed up on the transport fleet, but the fleet carrying the first batch of mines has not yet reached the southern port.
It can only be said that the efficiency of sailing ships is really low, and they can only float on the sea on windless days, but there is still no breakthrough in the manufacture of steamships, firstly, the power is not enough, and secondly, the problem of material strength has not been solved.
"As a result, we can only wait for the shipment of minerals"
Several hard minerals have been found in the Land of Sand, and if Leo's inference is correct, this shipment should be able to solve the problem of the Snowdrifter Card Tech Tree.
Leo could only hold the water glass and cover his hands, it was a little cool without a wall, and the herald not far away rang the bell three times, indicating that there was something to report.
"What's the matter?"
The herald's face was embarrassed, he looked like he was struggling and stopping, and his eyes kept glancing at a few people, was this a good thing to say in private?
"If there's anything you can say directly, it's all your own people, don't be embarrassed"
"There's a kid outside the city..... who claims to be the illegitimate daughter of an adult, and is waiting at the registration office in the inner city."
"What!?"
Although others repeatedly objected, thinking that it was some kind of conspiracy, perhaps it was an assassin sent by the Empire or the Church? However, the other party is just a child, and Leo still wants to see him.
There is only a deeper reason, that is, Leo's predecessor, and it seems that he really owes a lot of romantic debts under his recollection, and if he doesn't confirm it with his own eyes, he really can't be sure.
"Hide this from Fran first, don't let her know"
Leo commanded that before his right foot could step into the registration office, the whole person froze, wondering whether to pull the other foot back as well.
"Who are you trying to hide?"
Fran sat in a chair, holding a child who seemed to be eight or nine years old in her arms, and it seemed that she was the so-called illegitimate daughter, even in the face of the encirclement of the empire, Leo had trembled so much.
"Forehead ........"
The temperature in the room plummeted, and the disciples who followed behind turned around and quickly moved away from Leo's back to prevent any unwarranted disasters.
…….
As dusk approached, Leo lit a bonfire by the shed, wrapped himself tightly in his coat, but he was still shivering from the cold.
did not usher in the imaginary beating, but Fran led the girl away directly, and he never dared to go back to his residence at this time, so he could only stay alone in the shed.
Aren't you here to recognize your relatives? Why didn't you say a word to yourself from beginning to end? I'm obviously ready to accept that title that doesn't match my age!
"Horn"
“!!”
When I looked up suddenly, I found that it was not a little girl in the daytime, but just a resident passing by in the distance, and I could vaguely hear what they were saying at the downwind.
"Horn, why is the lord sleeping in the shed?"
"Shhh, be quiet, Lord Lord will sleep in the shed if His Highness is unhappy"
"Why is Your Highness not happy?"
"Because adults have a good relationship with other women"
The little girl said with an innocent smile.
"That horn kissed the aunt next door last time, will Ma Ma be...."
The man was shocked, covered his daughter's mouth, picked it up and clamped it in the crook of his arm, and trotted away from the scene, for fear that someone would hear it and reach the ears of the insider.
Leo didn't care about the family ethics theater that might happen next, he just felt like a dead fish, with a strange light in his eyes.
The remaining walls of the castle collapsed without wind.
