Chapter 2 It's okay, it can be reimbursed
Wang Guowei's face flashed with suspicion, but he didn't insist anymore, and then went upstairs with Li Yu.
Back at the place where he lived, Li Yu went to the shower room and rinsed his feet, and by the way, he washed his socks and shoes together.
After going out, he saw that Wang Guowei did not immediately go back to the house to play games as usual, but sat on the IKEA sofa in the living room, looking thoughtful, and said seriously after seeing Li Yu come out.
"Brother Li, tell me honestly, have you found a new job, have you been pretending to work recently?"
"Why do you say that?" Li Yu said while wiping his feet with a towel.
"Because you've been doing very strangely lately, you go out in a suit every morning, but you don't work overtime, you go home early, you cook your own meals, and exercise on time...... No matter how you look at it, it looks like a middle-aged man who pretends to be strong after losing his job. ”
"The question is who am I pretending to be strong, do I?" Li Yu asked rhetorically.
"You seem to have a point." Wang Guowei was stunned for a moment, paused and said, "Then you just ......"
"Do you want to hear the truth, the truth is that I want to see if I can walk on the water." Li Yu admitted frankly.
"Cut!" Wang Guowei directly replied with his middle finger, but he also put down his snack slightly.
…………
Li Yu didn't know what to say about the second Godhead sequence he had obtained.
For now, the upside is that it's hard for him to drown again, and the downside is that he seems to be insulated from all the water sports as well.
Bathing, swimming and even foot baths, he couldn't enjoy it anymore.
It's hard to say which is more likely to gain or lose, especially for a modern person living in a civilized society, as long as he doesn't always swim in the river, the probability of drowning is not too high.
But at this point, Li Yu asked Hephaestus that the godhead sequence could no longer be retreated after activation, and he could only just forget it.
After spending a few days researching his new abilities and props, Li Yu turned his attention back to the task at hand.
Thanks to the tireless efforts of several stonemasons and carpenters, the first windmill on the continent of Brattis was finally completed after a month and a half.
Even if Li Yu gave the design drawings in advance, he still encountered many problems in the real construction process, but fortunately, he has attracted many technical talents to join during this period of Shuangxiu Education.
The big guys worked together to finally make the kind of magical mill described by the prophet Merlin, which could be driven by the power of the wind without humans and animals.
When the windmill was built, everyone put down what they were doing and rushed to watch.
The huge cross sails, blown by the north wind, soon turned, and the rotating axles drove the stone mill below, grinding the wheat inside into flour.
In just one hour, more than 400 catties of flour were grinded, and when Hera announced the final number, the crowd couldn't help but let out a cry of amazement.
The lizardmen are okay on their side, they are novices in farming, they can't grow wheat in the swamp, and no one usually grinds flour, so naturally they won't suffer from grinding flour.
But for other farmers who come to join the Shuangxiu Sect, harvesting the crops each year is only the beginning of hard work, followed by drying, hulling, and grinding.
Normally, the mills on the territory were owned by the lord, and the commoners or serfs had to pay taxes or pay for their labor if they wanted to use them.
Most people would choose the latter option, which meant that they not only had to grind their own portion of the wheat, but also grinded their grain for the nobles who owned the mills.
Moreover, whether they use human or animal power, they need to rest after a period of labor, and at the same time, their strength is limited and they cannot push too large a stone mill.
The emergence of the windmill has undoubtedly brought great convenience.
Moreover, Li Yu promised to charge only one-fifth of the fees charged by the original nobles after it was put into use, for daily maintenance, and the most basic construction expenses, and it is expected that it will take 40 years to recover the investment, which is actually a semi-public infrastructure.
Li Yu even planned to be free at the beginning, but he was worried that there would be a tragedy of the commons, and everyone would use the windmill without control, so that those who really needed it could not use it.
And if it's free, even if it's free, with the expansion and development of the Shuangxiu Church, the windmill mill will definitely become more and more numerous, and if they don't cost all of them, it will inevitably put a heavy financial burden on the Shuangxiu Church.
In addition to the windmill, the new auditorium was almost completed at this time.
The auditorium is still made of brick and wood, but it covers a much larger area than ordinary houses, and can accommodate up to 600 people at the same time.
Li Yu still found the online designer who helped him design the Northeast Dakang before.
The latter's online name is "Let's settle the balance of trouble".
Of course, Li Yu couldn't directly tell the final payment that he wanted to build a place dedicated to preaching, but only that the village wanted to build a small cinema that could seat more people, and in addition, he still didn't want water, electricity, and fire protection as before.
Although this request is a bit strange, it is rare to meet a customer who pays so happily and does not need to change the picture, and of course there is no reason to refuse the final payment.
even suspended the other work at hand, and first helped Li Yu draw his village-head movie theater.
This is the second time that the two sides have cooperated, and the final payment has almost figured out Li Yu's preferences and needs, so this time Li Yu didn't even mention any revisions, but just asked him a few questions.
I paid the balance very happily, and then I even booked a design drawing of a bathhouse.
The final payment is troublesome, and as soon as he was excited, he chatted with Li Yu again, and he first asked Li Yu how the previous Northeast Dakang lived.
Li Yu fully affirmed his design level, and said that everyone who lived in it said that it was warm, and it was much cleaner and tidier than the previous house.
I don't quite understand that this is just autumn, and the temperature is quite high, why are the people who live in it thinking about warmth, is it too cold in the mountains? However, he is still very happy to receive praise from customers.
Hearing Li Yu's second half of the sentence, he felt a little sad, so he typed and asked Li Yu.
"Big brother, are you engaged in poverty alleviation, this is to build a house, build a village cinema, and build a bathhouse, even if the water and electricity are not connected, this condition is still too difficult, our country's poverty alleviation is really still a long way to go, so let's do it, big brother, I will give you a 50% discount, which can be regarded as a part of my heart to support the construction of poor mountainous areas."
The sudden love of the final payment made Li Yu on the other side of the network cable unable to rectify.
After a while, he typed again, "It's okay, I can be reimbursed." ”
