Chapter Ninety-Nine: Damming Repairs

After solving the trouble of the goblin, Surin also began to prepare to start making wine and cane sugar, but although he knew the general method, it was very difficult to do, which may be the gap between the ideal and the reality!

But he still had a lot of work to do before he could get started, so he had to get things straight.

Now Schrieman and other carpenters are very skilled in the production of gears, and he is ready to make full use of water power to replace the consumption of manpower, after all, there are not enough people in the town now.

In the follow-up plan, the first thing to do is to build a warehouse, and this task is left to the goblins, who are natural construction masters, and the warehouse is just a relatively large hole for them.

The next step was to build a dam on top of the waterfall to make better use of the water resources.

After making a mission plan, Surin called Schleyman again and gave him a drawing.

Schleiman saw a long table with a bunch of belts and gears on the top of the picture, and after observing it for a while, he asked, "Your Majesty, what is this?"

"It's a gearing device that uses gears to drive the belt on the bearing, which drives the movement of the table. ”

Su Lin said that the automatic device of the assembly line in the previous life, although there is no electricity now, it can also be done by using a hydraulic bond.

After his detailed explanation, Schleiman also understood how it worked, and then went back to study.

Then Surin called Titney up, and since last night he had been much more honest, and then gave him instructions about digging a huge warehouse at the foot of the mountain.

Hearing this, Titney also said arrogantly: "Isn't it just digging a hole, I promise to complete it in a month." ”

"Okay, then you dig the stone into a whole piece, and I'll be useful then. Surin made another request, and the stones were used to build the dam.

"Okay, no problem. ”

After saying yes, Titney turned around and went into the hole, not forgetting to walk the fruit and snacks on the table.

After the task was ordered, Surin was ready to go out to look for limestone, and after having limestone, then it was possible to make cement, which was actually a binder, but it was different from modern cement.

He had also seen a white rock on the beach before, and he thought it should be limestone, so he had to go and see it.

Immediately Su Lin took a few people to the seashore, and after walking a few kilometers up the coastline, he saw a white stone on the shore in front of him, so he immediately dismounted and walked over.

Picking up a stone and examining it carefully, it was hard and had many small pits on the surface, and it was determined that it was limestone.

Then he said to Gordon, who was beside him, "Bring someone to dig some of these stones for me." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. ”

Gordon immediately turned around and rode back as soon as he received the order.

After a few hours, one after another, people took shovels and bags, pushed the wheelbarrow, and then banged on it.

Later in the evening, Titeney and other goblins also came to the surface, dressed in gray leather coats, in addition to carrying a bag, from which a faint red light came out.

At this time, Su Lin also came to the side with a group of people, and saw them take out a red shovel from their bag, which was shining red, and it felt very magical.

Seeing this, he couldn't help but ask Titney, "What is this?"

Hearing this, Titney also said proudly: "This is a shovel made of special ore, which is very hard and sharp, and it is very convenient to dig, and we dug it from deep underground. ”

Hearing this, Su Lin also took it and took a look, the first feeling was very heavy, without any temperature, it felt a bit like a red glow stick, it was good to decorate, but I don't know what the effect is.

Then the goblins began to work, and they struck the stone wall with their shovels, and the shovels were knocked into the stone, and the stone was like paper in front of the shovel.

Soon a square stone was knocked out, and then they took out a rope and tied it to the end of the stone, and a group of goblins pulled it hard outside, and a stone of four or five hundred catties was pulled out.

After seeing this scene, Surin's eyes also lit up, but he didn't expect these goblins to have this hand, so he let people transport the stones to the edge of the waterfall.

After a while, the hole in the warehouse was cut out, and it was just a matter of expanding it inside.

The next day, Su Lin came to the place where the limestone was piled up outside, and saw that the open space was already full of a lot of limestone, about a few thousand catties, and many people next to him had begun to build a stove.

He had already handed over the drawings of the blast furnace to Kersma, and he couldn't help but be happy when he saw that the furnace six or seven meters high was almost ready to be built.

These limestones were not yet usable, and had to be calcined before they could be disintegrated into powdered lime, which was then mixed with water and sand to become the cement of this era.

After handing over the next calcining task to Kersma, Surin came to the edge of the waterfall again, and saw that there were fifty or sixty boulders piled up next to him, all of which had been transported here last night, and Starr was already waiting here with a few hundred people.

"Your Majesty, can we start now?" Starr asked as he walked over and smiled at him.

"Let's get started, be careful. ”

After saying that, Su Lin walked to the side, Shi An was fishing with a fishing rod at this time, and also asked, "Do you really want to block the river?"

Hearing this, Su Lin also touched her head and replied: "It's not blocked, it's to control the flow rate, you don't understand if you talk too much, just look at it." ”

The mouth of the waterfall is not large, as long as it is more than ten meters long and more than one meter deep, it is not very difficult to put stones in it to block the water flow.

By this time some of the soldiers had already gone down to the river, reaching out to put their ropes on them, so that they would not be swept down by the current.

Now all they have to do is to chisel the bottom of the embankment so that the stones can be installed so that there will be no leakage.

The work was completed by noon, and then the people carried the stones with ropes and carefully lowered them into the water, each weighing four or five hundred pounds, so that they would not be washed away by the water.

By the end of the evening, the two-metre-high dam had been built, leaving only a leak in the middle, but the river had risen a lot upstream, but the water pouring out was more impactful.

Now just wait for tomorrow when the lime is burned and then plaster it with cement.

Su Lin stood below and looked at the more than ten meters long dam above his head and couldn't help laughing, now all kinds of buildings in the town are slowly being built, only by attracting people over, I believe that the town will develop faster.

Shi An also walked barefoot to the dam at this time, and waved his hand at Su Lin, he also smiled slightly.

In the evening, Su Lin went to the construction site of the warehouse again, and saw that the inside had been opened up for more than ten meters, and many people were transporting the knocked down stones to the stone yard for stacking, so as to facilitate future use.

The next day, Surin got up early in the morning, intending to go to see how the lime was burning.

When I arrived, I saw a large pile of gray powder piled up next to the stove, and I walked over and wiped it with my hands, and then put it on my nose to smell it, and I was sure that it was lime.

Then he asked people to bring the sand they had prepared before, and they mixed it with their own hands, first mixing the sand with lime, and then adding water, and after a while it turned into mud.

Then people started to smear the mud on the stones of the dam to see how it worked.

At this time, a row of wooden frames was erected over the dam, and after several people put ropes on them, they slid to the outside of the embankment, and began to plaster the cement with special planks.

After an hour, the surface of the dam is covered with a smooth white mud, just wait for it to harden and dry.

After waiting for a while, the mud dried quickly under the sun, Su Lin looked at it, and found that it was not much different from the modern cement wall, and he couldn't help but secretly say in his heart that he had succeeded.

Just then Starr leaned over and said, "Your Majesty, does this really work? I just find that it just makes it smoother and more beautiful." ”

"Yes, it looks like you want to feel it, so let's try it!"

So he took Starr to the place where the lime was stacked, and then made a slate again, and when the slab was dry, he had a hammer brought to him, and handed it to him, saying, "See if you can break the slate?"

Hearing this, Stara also took the hammer with a proud face, looked at the slate that was only a few centimeters behind, and smiled: "I have a lot of strength, and I promise to turn it into powder." ”

Seeing this, Su Lin also hurriedly retreated, and at the same time covered his ears.

Then Starr picked up the hammer and smashed it down, only to hear a loud bang, the wooden handle of the hammer was broken, and the hammer flew straight out.

Su Lin also felt a shock in his ears when he was standing in the distance, and he was surprised to see Star, and he kept rubbing his ears, muttering that he couldn't hear or something.

Seeing this, Su Lin knew that he must be temporarily deaf, so he walked over and shouted in his ear: "It's okay, it'll be fine later." ”

"What? You say louder, I can't hear you. ”

After a while, Starr felt that he could hear a voice, so he looked down at the stone slab and saw that there was only a shallow mark on it, and nothing else.

After seeing this scene, he was sure that this thing was really strong, and after shaking the bull's head, he turned and left.

And Su Lin also had an idea in his mind at this time, now that he has cement, it is much easier to build a house, and in the future, he will definitely build a landmark building belonging to Logo.
