Volume 8 Flap your wings! 06 Monsters that don't make a bang 01
Since the facts have been decided, the first thing Xu Zheng went to find was the dwarf and dwarf clans. These two races, one is good at manufacturing and the other is good at metal processing, which is the most reliable help for Xu Zheng at present.
It took Xu Zheng two full days to draw all the drawings and hand them over to the gnomes and dwarves to study. Then it took another day to teach the gnomes to learn to see new types of dimensions and process requirements in more advanced ways.
The reaction of the two groups is very interesting, the Yalu patriarch is obviously much more interested in digging holes in the ground than in making new means of transportation, he directly handed over Haze and Iliqi to Xu Zheng, and divided two hundred dwarves to Xu Zheng to help, and the rest are still burrowing in the ground.
And Haze has been mixing with Iliqi and Xu Zheng for a long time, whenever Xu Zheng comes up with something new, both of them are very interested, and immediately throw away the work in their hands and follow Xu Zheng.
As for the gnomes, they were immediately fascinated by a more advanced and sophisticated set of scientific drawing and notation, and then fascinated by the patterns made of trains and automobiles. The dwarf gang led by Ling Lingmei immediately gave up the matter of building a transport aircraft to participate in the gnome technician evaluation, and joined in the manufacture of the train with a feverish mood. For them, being able to create this iron guy that Xu Zheng described as being able to run fast on the ground is obviously much more attractive than participating in the technician evaluation.
Gnomes are not a race with a good reputation, and the technician rank is nothing more than a liking and affirmation of their abilities, and when there are more interesting things, they will immediately put the seemingly trivial evaluation behind them and devote themselves to the creation they like more.
By the time they were still studying the drawings, Xu Zheng had already started the groundwork, because this matter could not be delayed, in just three days, a large number of materials purchased by the Cape of Good Hope had been piled up, and the letter sent back by Lan Si was full of bitterness, and the whole content was saying that all the members of the Starlight Song and Dance Troupe were temporarily transferred to warehouse keepers. Guarding these vital supplies. Other than that, I can hardly do anything else, let alone perform. Vic is illiterate and can't write, but he threatens to do so in a letter written by Emel that he can't be allowed to pursue the singing career he now enjoys so much. He will revert to the transformation of himself into a great axe berserker, wielding a large plate axe to chop everything he can chop.
Xu Zheng looked at the letter and laughed down. They were brought back by small convoys to pull materials into the estate. As for the small convoy, do you remember the dozen or so chocobos that Lord Orson brought in hand? They are now on the terrible task of transporting. And terrible means that the task is too difficult, as if it will never be finished.
Of course, Chuck, who is more business-minded, is trying to buy a mount that can be used for transportation tasks. I don't know if it's because Orson Manor is too lucky, or if he himself is too unlucky, this job is not done well, and the strange mounts that can be obtained are all left by the merchants when they see that they are profitable. These include three wildebeests, two ironbacks, and four Corbymons from Virgil. There are also two short-beaked crocodiles, and there are no more. These, together with the previous chocobos, twenty or so magical beasts and animals are responsible for the main transportation. At that speed, you can imagine what it will be like when you grow your brain......
News of the lack of vehicles in Orson Manor had already spread, but it would be at least a month or two before the merchants responded. The current situation of the Aris continent is like this, there are no telephones, no text messages, no Internet, no transit satellites, and only relying on a living vehicle with as few as two legs, as many as twelve legs to do this, how fast can you expect the news to spread?
Time waits for no one, at least not for Orson Manor. Due to the rapid construction speed brought by sufficient manpower and the lag in the arrival of materials and materials brought by backward transportation. The huge gap between the two was getting bigger and bigger, and Hawke was so anxious about it that he had to send out his spare people to carry it himself.
Then the letter sent back by Blue Silk brought even worse news. It's raining lately. And the air on the seaside is very humid. If you don't hurry up and find a way to deal with the food and materials that are piled up like mountains and highlands. Then everyone has to watch the hard-bought grain sprout and become inedible. The wood becomes moldy and becomes wood.
Both Hawk and Bruce realized the magnitude of the problem. All eyes stared viciously at Xu Zheng's back. often makes Xu Zheng feel that Mangla is on his back. Creepy half a step without stopping.
This may not be the case elsewhere. Because their construction and development are gradual. At first, a small group of people gathered into a small tribe in order to better help each other live. Then it developed into a small village. It was then developed into a small estate. Small towns. Big towns. Small castle. Great castle. In the end, a well-established city was formed. That's pretty much it. And Orson Manor. The start is high. A large number of people of all ethnic groups flocked here. Funds have been put in place several times before and after. It grew to the size of a large city---- although it is still customarily called Orson Manor. But in fact, it is much larger than the imperial capital. And that's not even counting the underground being built and the part of the sky that is about to come.
Such and such. Transportation has truly become an urgent issue. Because it's so good that it's the most important bridging part that links all the key things!
But no matter how anxious I am. The dry work has to be done step by step. Half a little bit is indispensable. Even more sloppy. Xu Zheng was also very annoyed by this. It seems that he is indeed a bad manager. I didn't expect traffic to be such an important issue. Instead, they got some miscellaneous things like biogas digesters, paper mills, and printing houses. It doesn't do much to really improve people's lives now. There's no denying they're good. But at the moment they do little to improve lives. Material civilization and spiritual civilization. You have to satisfy the former before you can talk about the latter. And he is obviously inverted. It's too much ahead of its time. They're here for now. It doesn't have to be.
Good thing there is Hawke. Otherwise, I don't know what Orson Manor will be ruined by itself......
With a feeling of chagrin, Xu Zheng worked harder than ever.
He did something that no one understood: he taught all the children in Orson Manor, including orcs, gnomes, dwarfs, elven dolls over sixty years old, but still looked like Terran children the age of rolling hoops.
The toy is very simple, with only two things, a thin iron rod with a hook over the loop, and a hollow ring made of iron rod of the same thickness.
There is no requirement to control the length of the iron rod, but in order to allow the dwarf children and dwarves who are too short to play well, they added a stretchable structure to Xu Zheng's design, so that it can freely expand and contract within a certain range. In addition, in order to facilitate the small orcs whose claws are not flexible enough and can only use their mouths, a leather bite handle for chewing is added to the end of the handle, which is a special type for small orcs. The approach of Orson Manor is to be fair, and to consider the participation of all races as much as possible.
The rest was handed over to Xu Zheng. Xu Zheng added a magic counting mechanism to the iron rod, and when the iron ring made each additional turn, the mechanism would receive a signal to make the counter number jump one more time. At the same time, the circumference of the hollow hoop is accurately customized to one meter, and the control irons are long and short, but all the hoops played by the little ones must be the same size, all of them are one meter in circumference.
Next, Xu Zheng did something that made everyone's eyes fall and made Hawk and Bruce angry---- when he was working at Orson Manor at its tightest, he actually took all the little dolls to play hoop rolling together!
What's even more irritating is that as an adult, he is still a middle-aged person who is not too old. Orson Travis was the first to join the children's game, and the hoop was rolled with pleasure, feeling like he was looking for a lost childhood. Not to mention how bright and loud his laughter was, hahaha's rough laughter could be heard from afar, and his beard was spreading his happiness outward. Once again, the popular godfather of Orson Manor played with the children, further cementing his position as the godfather...... Live off a little doll control......
Immediately afterwards, some half-grown teenagers and some adults with childlike hearts also joined the team---- anyway, they were waiting for the materials to arrive. In fact, rolling hoops are really interesting, it is healthy, sunny, can sweat fully, and can also experience the unrestrained freedom in the wild, smell the fresh smell of the mountains, the moist wind blowing from the sea, not to mention the incomparably beautiful sunshine, this is like an otherworldly version of aerobic exercise.
The demons are a little complaining, because they can't run in the sun, and they roll hoops at night, forehead...... It seems weird just to think about it.
As for the real kids, it's just a bit of fun. It's a simple and fun game that takes little time to learn how to balance the hoop with speed and the control stick in your hand, and you can run in the sun and the crisp wind with your friends from all races.
The rolling of the first hoop was practiced by Xu Zheng several times, and he successfully took it to run around the manor for a while, after demonstrating it to all the children who were looking forward to it. Orson Manor is full of cheerful laughter, all the children are laughing happily, and the little orcs are screaming, pushing the standard custom hoops all over the manor in various ways they like. This also includes a few small saplings that are not very restful, the roots of the Treants can form legs, and they are not slow to run. They can also roll hoops with their hands made of branches.
