Early in the morning, more than 50 cauldrons lined up. Five people in front of each cauldron stood in line to check each other's hygiene, and then lit a fire and boiled water to start making breakfast, although it was busy but orderly.

Nearly a month later, the camp near Fabro Manor had changed. What used to be an open-air 'pigsty' fence has been turned into a wooden shed. Although there is still no wall, it can cover the top of your head.

The magnates in the city opened their supplies to Zhou Qingfeng, and the food and cloth in the camp gradually became abundant. The homeless people who lived in wooden huts already had coarse linen clothes to wear, and they got up early to do their work.

It was not wrong with Zhou Qingfeng's prediction, as long as they had enough food for a few days and provided the necessary safety, the displaced people who had been stranded by the heavy rain would quickly recover. They are even better and more energetic because they can fill their stomachs.

Every morning at six o'clock, the sky is just dawning. Torches were still lit in the camp, and a mechanical clock woke up the staff on duty. The whistle wakes up the whole camp and a regular routine begins.

Because of the lack of management personnel, there was a greater emphasis on discipline in the camps, and everyone had to follow a routine life. When the first rays of sunlight shone on the camp in the morning, Zhou Qingfeng asked everyone to take their places and start mechanical labor.

The 'Chief Alchemist' Fabro personally visited the camp.

The housekeeper of the manor followed behind Fabro, pointed to more than fifty neatly arranged cauldrons, and whispered, "Look, master. The barbarians of the Black Forest have so many cauldrons, and how well they feed the lowly outcasts. ”

Breakfast was noodles, and the camp manager could get an extra slice of bacon. For homeless people who can only 'eat a full meal and a hungry meal' on weekdays, this is definitely nutritious. Being a slave to Lord Hugo also has advantages, at least his face is full of red light.

Making noodles is no easy task, and just grinding the wheat into flour is a big problem. The efficiency of making it entirely by hand is too low, and a noodle extrusion machine must be used.

The noodle machine in the camp canteen is made entirely of wood. The flour with water and salt is kneaded into a ball, thrown into the machine and squeezed, and the noodles fall out of the holes in the bottom.

This is Arcie's masterpiece, which looks crude and simple, but it is a very practical handmade machine.

Because the quality of the flour is not high enough, more than half of the buckwheat is added, which causes the noodles to be pressed intermittently. But in front of the more than 50 cauldrons in the canteen, thousands of homeless people ate one by one with plates, all of them were happy and never complained.

The aroma of pasta and sauces wafted outside the cafeteria, and the housekeeper of the manor drooled at the smell. He whispered to Fabro, "Sir, we should collect more rent from the barbarians of the Black Forest, they are too rich. ”

Money? It's not just money!

More than half a month ago, Fabro also tried to suppress Zhou Qingfeng and squeeze more benefits from the other party. But the young man simply threw him off and ran to hook up with the powerful in the city, and a series of operations were dazzling, and the problem was solved immediately.

Zhou Qingfeng sold goods in demand and also bought a large number of goods. Many of the magnates in the city are wizards, and just to grab a place in a 'boutique arcane class', they sell their own food to the Harmony Chamber of Commerce to gain favorability.

In addition, the practice of 'member spelling' has brought real discounts, which has instantly attracted more than eighty percent of the entire group in Cold Wind City. There are many contradictions between the forces in the city, but they are all happy in front of Zhou Qingfeng.

Faced with this kind of shameful operation, Fabro was stunned for a long time in his own manor, sighing to himself. But 'sigh' returned to 'sigh', Zhou Qingfeng seriously damaged the interests of the 'alchemy chief'. Since the start of the campaign, no one has patronized his business.

A carpentry workshop has been set up in the camp, and the displaced people who have completed the purification work in the workshop. In other words, Fabro will definitely oppress the homeless like a slave, and human life is not worth anything anyway.

But the homeless people in the workshop not only have food to eat, come and go freely, but also get wages. Although the daily wage is only two copper coins, it stimulates a high enthusiasm for labor. It is indeed easy for the homeless who have a salary to work.

The workshop is very simple and is also a wooden shed. Alsie built several simple woodworking sawing machines, driven by manpower, to produce planks of the same specification one finger thick.

Horse-drawn wagons brought logs from the lumberyards of the magnates, and the processed planks were taken away on the spot. It seems to be an ordinary processing process, but the wood boards produced are extremely versatile, and there is no worry that it will not be sold at all, or even in short supply.

When the displaced people have eaten enough, they rush to the workshop. They would take another sip of the spicy stamina potion, and in groups of five they would shake the sawing machine's flywheel. Each group can work in shifts for 20 minutes, and the next group can continue to work.

It's just sawing a plank, and Zhou Qingfeng has made it a large-scale operation. More than half of the displaced people in custody are doing this work, and with their steady labor, the processing of planks continues.

Fabro doesn't understand what 'cash for work' means, he only sees thousands of people working together, and it's very shocking. The housekeeper whispered beside him, "Master, these homeless people work very hard. Much stronger than the slaves on our estate.

Can we buy some from His Excellency Hugo, and preferably a few of the same sawing machines they use for their work? This kind of sawing machine is really easy to use, and most of the planks sawed out are the same, which can be used to build a house. ”

"It's just a pariah who eats a lot for a few days, what are you going to do?" Fabro will never admit that Zhou Qingfeng has a better level of management than him, "Give the slaves in our manor more to eat, and they can work well." ”

The butler nodded again and again, but asked again, "Master, there are still some good things in this camp." Even if you don't buy the homeless, can you buy a few of their carriages? ”

"Isn't their carriage still the same?" Fabro asked with a frown.

The butler didn't say anything for a long time, but a carriage from the Black Forest arrived at the camp, and two horses pulled a four-wheeled carriage. Judging from the rut marks, the things that were transported were heavy and numerous.

The homeless people acted as porters, unloading the wagons one by one. Fabro glanced at it closely, and as the 'Chief Alchemist', he was keenly aware that the chassis of the carriage was really different.

Ordinary axles are made of hardwood and are rigidly connected to the wheels and cabin. This structure has high friction and limited load.

The Black Forest used a wind forging machine to make hollow metal axles, which were light and strong, and also used ball bearings brought by Zhou Qingfeng.

Hahaha...... the improved carriage is so easy to use.

The metal axle greatly increases the load capacity, and the load of the carriage can be increased several times. With ball bearings, the horses pulling the cart can be much less labor-intensive. It used to be ten points, but now it is up to five points. Even horses are happy!

The capacity of the new carriage is four or five times that of the ordinary carriage, and it runs faster. The steward of the manor was shocked to see this kind of carriage, and he really couldn't imagine how there could be such a good thing.

The improvement of transportation capacity can directly change the social landscape.

But such a good carriage, a discerning person can see its advantages and cannot imitate it. Fabro deigned to lower his frame and personally bent down to observe the territory of the new carriage. After reading it, he kept a straight face.....

The metal axle can still be imitated, but it is more expensive. The black technology that can be sealed on the bearing cannot be made by hand.

The obvious technical advantages can be seen but not imitated, and you will be angry.
