Volume 4 The Rising Star of the Imperial Capital 16 The Imperial Capital Water Project 05

Dane and Bruce were overjoyed and asked, "Is it really possible?"

Foran nodded excitedly, "The conversion speed of twenty-eight barrels in one hour is quite amazing." Moreover, Xu Zheng also designed such things as water towers and planned a complete water supply system, which is a mature and perfect plan. Second brother, I admire you so much. What's your brain? It's really packed with a lot of weird stuff. The idea of the magic array converting the water source is already wonderful, and there are actually water towers and city water supply systems, these two things are really wonderful things!"

Xu Zheng said: "Don't just be happy, the cost of building the water tower and laying the city's water supply system is quite amazing. If the cost exceeds the load, it can only be empty talk. ”

Dane shook his head and said, "I don't see it that way. With Zion's current predicament, as long as it can afford it, no matter how much it costs, this water supply plan will have to be built. No matter how expensive it is, I don't think it's as big as buying bottled water from other neighboring countries, Zion hasn't done this before, and that's how a lot of mineral deposits are exchanged. It's a bottomless pit that can't be filled. Xu Zheng's water supply system, if it is really feasible, can continue to operate after it is completed, which means that it has been effective since the day it was built. It is more than a thousand times stronger than imported bottled water. ”

Foran said quickly: "Father, please call someone to ask the Minister of Construction, Dirk Wilbertium, the sooner the better, I will calculate the cost with him." ”

"Good!" said Dane, calling the guards.

Xu Zheng said: "I'll go." I'm riding a little faster. ”

Dane said: "You stay, the whole plan is the core, and I want to ask you the key things first." ”

Bruce said, "Why don't I go." Anyway, Xu Zheng couldn't find Dirk's residence. ”

"Good. It's up to you. lest the identity of the guards is not enough, and they have to wait for the summons to delay and waste time. ”

"Wait. Xu Zheng said, the dark gold beast pattern on his forehead appeared, and he summoned Lulu. After a while, Lulu rushed into the conference hall half-flying and half-jumping. Xu Zheng said: "Ride Lulu." He can now understand human speech and tell him how to fly. ”

Bruce was excited. "Wow! Finally have a chance to ride your monster to pull the wind! Are you sure he won't lose his temper and throw me down halfway?"

"No, it won't. Xu Zheng smiled: "You are my eldest brother, you usually know how close you look, don't worry about him throwing you down halfway." Purr, good. He reached out and scratched his chin twice, and said, "Carry Bruce where he's going." Help pick up one more person back. In the evening, we will treat you to a barbecue dinner. ”

Lulu knew the closeness of Bruce and Xu Zheng, and was not very resistant to Bruce, but when she heard that she had to bring another person back, she was a little unhappy. Xu Zheng hurriedly coaxed and deceived for a while, and promised countless benefits, and only then did Lulu nod and agree.

Bruce excitedly climbed on Purr's back and laughed happily. After a series of shouts, he flew out of Samus Castle with Lulu.

Taking advantage of this wait, Xu Zheng asked Dane to send sheep paper and pens, and began to draw the structural diagram of the water tower and the water supply system in detail. Forren and Dane look at the intricate drawings. I was dizzy and dizzy, and I understood it under Xu Zheng's explanation. The two of them only understood a little bit of the surface, and they already felt that this plan was not simple. I can't help but be like Xu Zheng, a little uneasy. If it's too expensive, that's not good.

After a while, the sound of flapping wings sounded, and Bruce shouted excitedly, landing directly in the conference hall. Bruce jumped off Purr's back, his face flushed with excitement. It's a blast to behold. And the other person on Lulu's back was so frightened that his hands and feet were soft, and he was spread out on Lulu's back like a puddle of mud, and he couldn't get off after struggling for a long time.

Bruce laughed and helped the man down. Xu Zheng looked at it, this person was between an uncle and an old man, with white skin, yellow hair, and his body didn't look very good, and he was sick. That man was Dirk Wilbertium, the Minister of Construction. It looks very ordinary, but it has a scholarly temperament close to Fu Lun, but it is much more mature and wise than Fu Lun.

Dirk was helped down by Bruce from Lulu's back, put it on the chair to recover for a while, and after recovering from the soul that was frightened by Lulu's rapid hurricane, he immediately showed a vigorous and resolute style, grabbed Xu Zheng's drawings and began to look at them carefully.

Dirk looked all the way down, and the more he looked, the more moved he became, and the more he looked, the more excited he became. I browsed it as a whole, and without saying a word, I directly began to calculate the cost problem in the sheepskin.

"How thick is the main pipe?" Dirk asked.

Xu Zheng compared a circle with a diameter of half a meter thick, Dirk nodded, and asked again, "How many sets of pipes are there under it?"

Xu Zheng said: "There are four levels, the main pipeline, and the second, third, and fourth level pipelines. The second and third levels are all used for diversion, and the fourth level is directly introduced into residential buildings. ”

I roughly talked about the thickness of the second, third, and fourth level pipes. Dirk estimated the distance length and materials, and quickly began to calculate, while Forren followed suit for a second calculation.

This was followed by the estimation of the water tower and the process planning. Dirk looked at the cone-shaped umbrella-shaped part on the picture, frowned, and said, "This thing is very troublesome, so I can only choose to build it, and then connect it after the columnar part of the lower part is built." Fortunately, it is only twenty meters above the ground, and it is estimated that the large elevator used when Samus Castle was built will be used. Your Majesty, that thing has been sitting for decades, can it still be used?"

Dane hurriedly called someone to check the lift. Dirk & Forren continued to calculate costs. From the content of this film, Xu Zheng couldn't help, and stood aside with his hands down, waiting for Dirk to ask questions at any time.

The whole calculation process was large and complicated, and when the guards who replied to Dane came back to report that the elevator was still usable after maintenance, the two were still there to do the math.

This calculation went straight to late at night, and Dane had already called for food to be delivered twice, and several people hastily ate and wrapped their stomachs in the council chamber and continued their work. Xu Zheng couldn't help with the calculation, so he pulled the sheepskin, and while drawing the magic array upward, he thought carefully about what were still lacking in the entire array.

Considering that although the consumption of the condensation array is not large, in order to save costs, all first-order magic cores are used, Xu Zheng added three magic power supply links to the magic array, leading them all the way to the bottom of the bottom pillar of the water tower, where a magic supply circuit was designed, where magic crystals or magic cores could be inserted to provide magic power to the magic array above.

Finally, with an idea, he combined the ideas of programming and magic array design, and added two more trigger arrays to the magic array system according to the principle of judging sentences in the programming. Due to the single working principle of the magic array, Xu Zheng used two, both of which were used to check the water storage level, and one was on the upper limit of the water level, cutting off the magic source and making the magic array stop working, so as to avoid the harm caused by the full flow of water and save magic power. The other is to reconnect the magic source when the water level is below the subscription limit, allowing the entire magic array to work again. The two arrays are carved into the inside of the water tower, one on the top and one on the bottom, about half a meter apart, and they are each connected by a separate magic link and the main water system condensation array.

These two arrays are the real Xu Zheng's originals, and they are not in any alchemy manual. Xu Zheng created these two arrays based on the fact that the magic array could automatically sense the concentration of magic elements, and for the first time in the alchemy history of the Aris Continent, a special magic array that could be judged according to external conditions was created. This was a great feat in the alchemy of the entire Aris Continent! Later, all the magic arrays that could move independently according to conditions were all based on the principles of Xu Zheng's two magic arrays. These two magic arrays were also recorded in the history of alchemy, and they were given a nice name, called - Initial Array.

At this time, Xu Zheng was just an inspiration and drew it, not realizing its great use at the time, and randomly gave them two very clumsy names: the starting array and the closing array.

The entire magic array system is designed here, and it can be regarded as perfect. For his first large-scale painting array, although Xu Zheng was not very satisfied with its function, he still couldn't help but be proud of designing a successful work. Turning his head to look at the magic array system in his hand that was becoming more and more gorgeous due to the gradual increase, Xu Zheng was happy.

It was already late at night, and the two moons were already high in the sky. Dane, who watched everyone's work with full attention, although he couldn't help much, was with him throughout the whole process, and he was a dutiful monarch. Bruce, who does aftermath support work, does not have the frame of the eldest prince and the successor of the imperial capital, and actively does what he can. and Dirk and Forlen, who are still immersed in calculations, have serious expressions on their faces that are very impressive.

Xu Zheng felt a strong sense of happiness in his heart. When everyone is working towards a common goal, every step is an exciting change. Actively participating and working together to create a better life is the meaning of life, and this rebirth is valuable. Some people say that a person's life is actually a process of being affirmed and self-affirmed. At this moment, Xu Zheng really realized this.

After a long time, Dirk slowly lifted up from a large pile of sheepskins, let out a long sigh of relief, rubbed his sore neck with his hands, and said, "I have a preliminary estimate that it will cost seven hundred and forty thousand gold coins to build a water tower of this size. The volume of 2,000 cubic meters, the conversion of 28 barrels of water per hour, and according to the preliminary estimate of the amount of water used by residents, if it is used sparingly, because the water used by residents is stopped from time to time, and will not be used uninterruptedly, it should be able to provide water to 5,000 households. According to this cost, the cost of laying the pipeline system is as large as 420,000 gold coins. He took a deep breath and said, "A set of such things is built, about 1.3 million gold coins!"
