Chapter 0058: Watergate Incident (1)

The "fan" fluttered rhythmically, and the gentle wind blew towards the old lady Baird Swift, and Asida also followed the light, and felt the coolness in the hot weather.

It was a hot day, and like most of the Silver Sands, he was enthusiastic about it, explaining in detail: the food and clothing of pirates and female slaves, the repair of castles, the construction of docks, the one-stop road for iron ore mining and transportation planned by Alwin, the distribution of manpower and the expenditure of money......

This was the old bachelor's job, but as a knight, Asida only had one hand, and his horseback and sword swinging were very affected, and his combat effectiveness was greatly weakened, and he couldn't bear his own share of duties.

Fortunately, as the son of a small nobleman, he received an education, and his learning was not very good, at least he could read and write, so he became the helper of the old bachelor, assisting in the management of the territorial chores.

The Young Lord's trip to Giant Whale Island was fruitful.

Murder and arson, the pirates accumulated a lot of stolen goods, this trip in vain and black, temporarily solved the food crisis in the castle and Salted Fish Town, enough for them to last for some time.

There are many places where manpower and material resources are needed for the initial construction of the territory, the money is not in decimals, the accounts are messy, he explained them one by one, the pamphlet is thin, and there is another page to see the bottom, the old bachelor occasionally took a sip of the tea brought by Alyssa, occasionally stopped, nodded quietly, obviously very satisfied with the results of his work.

Fingers twisted, paper rubbed, and another page turned, the last part, and possibly the hardest, and Asida tried to slow down as much as she could.

"Spend so much iron?" It is worthy of the important minister who has been immersed in the place with the most intelligent people for decades, the old bachelor of the palace, and suddenly heard the most critical part, and the faint old eyes suddenly widened, "For the sake of ...... For what gate? What gate costs more iron than the gate of the castle?"

It was right to leave this item for the last part, and Asida handed the ledger to the old bachelor, who put on his glasses and read it word by word, for fear that he had read it wrong.

"Watergate, that's what the lord called it, saying that it was used for ...... Catch fish. Asida explained softly. When he said this, the knight felt like a piece of flesh had fallen from his body, and his heart ached to death.

"Nonsense!" the ledger was closed, gently tossed on the table, and the glasses were taken off, "More than a hundred cavalrymen are fully armed to build a door?" The old bachelor said sonorously, and his half-clenched fist tapped lightly on the table.

One hundred and nine complete sets of equipment, Asida has long been clear, from men to horses, swords, guns and shields, iron armor and saddle horseshoe, there is no shortage of one.

With these irons, the silver sand collar has a formed cavalry unit that obeys the orders of the lord, and with this army, the lord can look like a lord and have charisma, after all, pomp and honor guards are also a way to swear the authority of the lord, otherwise, they are just a group of rabble, similar to the powerful bandits.

He was also extremely dissatisfied with this item, but he was self-aware, and knew that he was a soft-spoken person, and there was no good result for offending the lord, so he sorted out this matter, sandwiched it on the last page of the account book, and reported it to the old bachelor.

"Watergate, what Watergate?" the learned old scholar was surprised when he heard such a term for the first time.

"It is said that they went into the water, blocked the bay, and closed the door to fish...... It's like closing the door and beating the dog......"

"Poof-" The old bachelor took a sip of tea, not touching a drop to his throat, "no matter what the door, there is no door." ”

For the series of changes since settling in the castle, assassins, gangsters, pirates, and whale island, the old bachelor is both afraid and happy.

When I was in the royal capital, I was clearly decent, and I was timid in doing things, when did I ...... Probably from the night after the arrow, it seems that a different person, a magician, a knight, sweeping the gangsters, sweeping the pirates, is simply unstoppable, and there are many ideas, for example, the idea of exchanging iron ore for food, in terms of the current situation, is still very suitable.

If he is so brilliant in the royal capital...... Maybe...... It's a long time since he died.

For himself, the old bachelor of the student, he is becoming more and more incomprehensible, but he can understand and endure humiliation.

But after all, he could not get rid of the extravagant habits he had cultivated in the king, he liked to waste, and it was not easy to have a little possessions—in fact, there was not much, not in a blink of an eye, how could he use such a huge amount of iron to cast a door, and it sounded like it was to be placed underwater, neither to prevent thieves nor to put pirates, it was useless.

The lord's grace is only applied to Salted Fish Town, and there is still a vast territory to be governed, and if the lord's decree needs to be implemented, it is necessary to build the government agencies and army of the Silver Sand Collar.

There was only a little bit of iron, and they were all thrown into the water, or they rusted in the sea, and there was no door.

“...... Tell him to stop, not a pound of iron can be wasted, and Alvin is messing around again. The old bachelor's beard shook violently, and his half-clenched fist struck a few more times.

Wang——

"Fan" expressed his dissatisfaction with the old bachelor's criticism of Alwin's words, his teeth and claws, his little belly bulging, his body hanging in the air, and his wings not flapping.

Alwyn positioned Feifei on the ceiling above the old bachelor's forty-five degrees, and asked it to fan the wind to help the old master cool off, and at that time Asida only felt that the young lord was very good at using it according to his aptitude, and did not waste any useful people or even animals, like him with only one hand left and Feifei who could flap his wings.

At this time, I felt that the top of my head was simply a pair of surveillance eyes, which made people feel uncomfortable.

......

When Asida and the old bachelor rode slowly to the blacksmith's shop, everyone was busy.

Iron ore was hoarded by the sea, and the coal was carried directly in front of him, and Alwin also equipped the blacksmith with enough manpower to build an earthen stove, and he directly explained to the blacksmith the method of filling steel, which increased the efficiency of steelmaking by a hundredfold.

The blacksmith father and son hired three other helpers, plus three pirates on Giant Whale Island who were responsible for repairing and polishing weapons, a total of eight people, they specialized in forging tools, the efficiency has increased a lot, and the output of steel has also doubled.

"Is that okay?" Alvin was talking to the blacksmith about filling steel, and the blacksmith touched a bright thing as he listened, and when he saw Asida, the young lord suddenly became happy, and clapped his hands, "It's better to come early than to come at the right time, and the thing has just been done." ”

"It's done!" Asida and the old bachelor felt a pain in their hearts, and looked at each other in amazement, "So fast?"

"Oh, you know?" said Alwin, picking up the shiny piece of metal from the blacksmith's hand, and pulling up the severed wrist toward Asida.

"It's ......"

"It's done in a hurry, only two claws, but it doesn't matter, the blacksmith can't fall, we do it every day, you can change it to two, three, four, if you like...... Even seven claws and eight claws, making it like a climbing plow...... Hahaha...... You can also exchange them for expensive materials, such as gold and silver claws, stainless steel, and even alloy claws with added magic. ”

The wrist is stretched in, one end is a cover wrapped in leather, and one is two iron hooks, the buckle is fastened, the sleeve is tightened, the wrist is a little uncomfortable, and the wound heals out of numbness and itching, and there is a slight pain.

"Take it with you, and you've gone from a knight with a broken wrist to an iron-clawed Asida. Alvin patted the knight on the shoulder.

Since the name "Iron Claw Asida ......" is smooth and imposing, the knight with the broken wrist looked at it, and the two iron hooks, no, claws, couldn't help but repeat softly.

"If you don't like claws, you can also bind short swords, spears and the like, but for the time being, it's just claws. Go back and find out if there are any experiments such as Eagle Claw Skill, Dragon Claw Hand, and Nine Yin White Bone Claw in the knight's cultivation. ”

Claw on the sleeve a piece with only two hooks oh the prosthetic leg of the claw is just made directly into a weapon the young lord does things very strangely this is another one in front of him.

"Alright. It turned out that the iron claw was done. Ironclaw Asida muttered to herself.

"Well, what do you say?"

The knight felt something in his throat, and his words were choked, and some of them could not speak, and he was stunned for a long time.

"Iron Gate...... Oh no, watergate don't do it, stop. Behind him, the old bachelor staggered past Asida, and said in a trembling voice.

"Watergate?" Alvin frowned with a puzzled look on his face, not understanding why this question was suddenly there, and then understood the old bachelor and the knight's intentions, and said, "It's finished, go into the water." ”

So fast? The old bachelor and Asida let out an "ah" in surprise and looked at each other, it was too late, and more than a hundred cavalrymen, fully armed, sank to the bottom of the water.

To save a family fund, you have to be diligent and thrifty, and it is really very simple to lose.

The two of them were extremely sad in their hearts, holding hands and looking at each other with tears, but they wanted to cry without tears.

"How is it possible to gather so much iron in such a short time? Iron tools are so scarce...... the old bachelor asked unwillingly.

"From today onwards, there will be no shortage of iron in the silver sand collar. Alvin added.

"No, there is no shortage of iron?" I have the impression that the silver sand collar should be poor and white, extremely lacking in iron, and in the blink of an eye, there will be no shortage of iron. The old bachelor and Asida's heads could not turn for a while, so they could only explore each other again, and looked at each other again, hoping to find the answer in each other's eyes, but their eyes were very confused.

"That's a lot of production!" said the blacksmith, smugly.

"Yes, if the coal fire is not extinguished, the blast furnace will not fail, and the steel will be endless. Alvin pointed to the three black smoke curling up, "Money and food, people, steel, and enough money, it's time to organize an army, the towns in the north and south, and the wild people hiding in the barren mountains, if they refuse to surrender, let them taste the power of the blade." ”

This is exactly what the old bachelor and Asida came to do, but I didn't expect that the young lord had already calculated it, after all, Alvin was the owner of this land, how could he not plan for its future, and the two who felt salty and carrot and were worried about it, glanced at each other again, and saw the relief on each other's faces.

It feels good to guess other people's minds!

In other words, this is also a skill that is not unfathomable, mainly for people like the old bachelor, who only care about a few things every day, and the intention can be traced.

Alvin put his hands behind his back and looked up into the distance, there was steel, there were heavy armor and iron horses armed to the teeth, and there was a torrent of steel.

Steel in hand, I have the world.
