Chapter 78: The Great Waterwheel Squeaks and Squeaks

The old blacksmith, after being shocked by Langdon, finally gained some confidence, and began to try to forge the parts with Ridori, a stupid apprentice.

On the other side, the poor bard sat in front of a pile of wood and sighed.

He could never have imagined that he, who boasted of being dashing and romantic, would one day be reduced to being a carpenter.

Bang dang!

A few tools were thrown in front of him, and the thing turned his head in extreme displeasure to see Langdon's smiling face.

This thing instantly changed his expression faster than the Sichuan opera changed his face, and said: "The lord actually sent me tools in person, I am really grateful, I ......"

"Come on, let's do it together. Langdon simply interrupted him, sat down beside him, picked up a saw, and began to work.

Nolan was shocked, this was even more surprising than Langdon throwing the carpentry work to him, Langdon is also the boss of one of the forces, and he actually came to do the carpentry work himself?

And so skilled?

Nolan was startled for a moment, silent for a moment, and then, picking up the drawings, looking at them carefully for the first time, then picking a handful of tools from the pile and working on Langdon's side.

In addition to the need for some fine parts of metal in the shaft, most of the wood waterwheels still need to be made of wood, and in order to be able to accurately transport water from low to high places, many parts need to be done very accurately, so if you really want to talk about the degree of complexity, the wood part is no worse than the metal part.

However, in general, it is still the wood part, which is easier to do, because the carpenter apprentice is easier to teach than the blacksmith apprentice.

At first, it was Langdon and Nolan who did it, but in fact, it was Langdon, a skilled hand, who taught Nolan this new hand, so that he could bypass some unnecessary troubles.

Three days later, as several pieces of windmills took shape under Nolan's hands, Langdon left and brought in a few helpers for Nolan, the equivalent of his apprentices.

That's a couple of black dwarves.

These black dwarves have some backgrounds, they were brought back by Deadmund.

At the beginning, Langdon sent all five dark elves out for the sake of manpower, and the other four came back early, and brought back a large number of people, only Dedmon has not been heard.

If it weren't for the loyalty of the lord system, Langdon would have thought he had betrayed him and joined another force.

In this way, when Langdon was about to forget about him, he actually returned, and he came back with someone.

The number of people he brought back was incomparable to others, only more than 200.

In terms of labor, it is impossible to say that a third of the people he brought back were elderly.

However, in terms of quality, the people he brought back were definitely the highest!

Although the high-level intelligent races in the underground world are not as rich as the above-ground world, there are definitely a lot, there are several kinds of goblins alone, and there are also lizardmen, kobolds, dragonmen, fishmen, and so on.

However, when it comes to the absolute ruling class of the underworld, there are only two kinds of them - the dark elves and the black dwarves.

70% of all the cities in the Underworld are ruled by dark elves, and the remaining 30% are ruled by black dwarves, which alone is enough to explain the situation.

And the more than 200 people that Dedmund brought back were a group of black dwarves, including more than a dozen dark elves!

Ah, by the way, I forgot to mention that more than 80% of the weapons and equipment that are prevalent in the underworld are made by black dwarf craftsmen.

Half of the reason why Dedmon came back so late was to convince them, and the other half to check on them.

It really made him find out that the reason why these people did not enter the city was because they had a huge conflict with the Marat family in power, so they escaped from the control of the Marat family, and they didn't want to leave the place where they had lived for generations, so they found a place in the wild to barely live, and it has been more than a hundred years now.

They didn't want to have anything to do with the Marat family anymore, and the Marat family didn't want to let them go, although they couldn't find where they were hiding, they also judged that they had not left the scope of their rule, so they did everything they could to make it difficult for them.

After more than a hundred years of tossing and turning, they have actually reached the end of their crossbows, and if Deadmond doesn't go to them, they will try their best to get out of the ghost place that they once regarded as their homeland.

Dedmund took advantage, but it was also because he had a unique talent in this area, he was patiently searching for the Larry brothers when they had already begun to pull people, and the others began to take people back, and he was still searching, and the Marat family had been looking for people for a hundred years, and he found them.

Not to mention spending time to investigate the situation of those people in detail, and using these successes to convince those people.

Langdon found that the few dark elves who followed him to this place actually have their own specialties, and they can shine if they have the opportunity, but in the troops of the Isis Mistress, they will never have such a chance, they desperately gave up everything to come here with Langdon, at least for now, it seems that they are right!

The addition of the black dwarves greatly relieved Langdon's pressure, and when it came to ingenuity, the races that others brought back were not comparable to theirs.

Moreover, although there were few people, they were a tribe after all, so among them were cooks, farmers, stonemasons, carpenters, blacksmiths, and guards.

Because of them, the first windmill was completed a full double as Langdon had expected.

Then, led by Langdon, a team headed for the intended place with all the windmill parts and plenty of food.

The waterway project also happened to come to an end, and the water of the Blackwater River was finally channeled into a small lake, and the arrival of Langdon meant the end of the project.

With a wave of his hand, Langdon came to a bonfire, and both civilians and slaves got together like that and enjoyed a sumptuous dinner, in fact, the things were still those things, but there was no limit to the number, and they were full!

On this day, everyone rested early, and when they woke up the next morning, the workers thought they were going back, but they saw those who they thought were transporting food, and took out all kinds of strange things from those parcel boxes, went to both sides of the river, and then went about their work silently under the command of the lord.

They weren't well prepared, and everyone didn't know what to do with the parts, but luckily there was Landon.

"You four, come here, put together the things in your hands and put them at the bottom, yes, that's it......"

"Where's the load-bearing rack? Oh, you, come here!"

"Pivot pivot, yes, it's you, don't turn your head to look at others......"

"Cogears, forget it, I'll do it myself, bring it ......"

All the workers watched as a behemoth made of wood slowly took shape in the river they had dug out.

"Alright, the last piece, go to you!"

Langdon lay on the waterwheel and drove the last nail into the waterwheel with his own hands.

The next moment, several people who had been pushing the waterwheel to prevent it from being pushed by the water let go at the same time.

Just listening to the squeak, everyone saw that the large disc hanging from the behemoth was slowly moving under the impetus of the water.

The sheets filled with water were pushed up to the heights, and then, with a bang, the water did not fall back into the channel, but fell into the ditch that had been dug long ago on the high platform.

"Wow!"

An exclamation.
