Chapter 74: Winter Village, which is getting more and more lively
"Do you have experience managing a battalion?" David looked at Sharon Rogers, the daughter of Captain America and Agent Carter, who was perhaps not only trained in the relevant fields, but even had an early hands-on experience?
"Hahaha!" Sharon smirked twice, and then said crisply, "No! β
ββ¦β¦β
Sharon is only in her early twenties, and she is at the age of not graduating from college on Earth, and she can complete a messy course including hot weapons, cold weapons, empty-handed combat, tactical command, special operations concepts, etc., as well as all kinds of knowledge that normal people need to learn, she is already a very powerful person, even if she wants to experience what it is like to really command the troops, she doesn't have that spare time.
According to Sharon's future plan, she will participate in several actual battles next, and if she performs well, she will officially take over her father's title and become a new generation of Captain America.
If the performance is average...... She hadn't thought about the situation, and as Steve Rogers' daughter, she couldn't behave mediocre!
"Let Eva help you, she was originally in the army to do clerical work, intelligence collation, and liaison work, and she is better at these trivial things than you." Peggy watched his daughter from another world make a few unreliable jokes, and then gave her own advice: "The current situation in the village is similar to the situation in the army. β
"It's a good idea." David glanced at Eva, he had thought that he would have a headache with all kinds of paperwork when the population of the village increased, so he sent someone to the door to do a clerical job. Does Goldfinger have a certain filtering function? "What do you think, Eva?"
"No problem at all, sir." After answering habitually, Eva realized that this was not an Allied army, so she wanted to change her words: "I mean, the village chief...... Or is it a lord? β
Don't look at Eva's tall and long legs, but she always looks cute, and when she laughs, she looks like a silly person, and the look of doubt on her face at this time really makes people doubt her ability to work - the Allies won't be defeated because of this, right?
"Just call me David, the village chief feels weird, and I'm not a real lord." David briefly said about his situation: "Not yet! β
David's goal has always been clear, and he casually expressed some of his thoughts: not counting now, when the four hundred new people arrive, the entire village is rebuilt, and the village is successfully upgraded to Winter Town, then he will be able to obtain the status of lord.
"At that time, will you still get a knighthood?" While continuing to write in the notebook, David chatted with the three women sitting in front of him, and by the way, he broadened his mind: "Normally, yes. β
"Baron?" Sharon was curious about these things, probably because of the circumstances in which she livedβthe people of America despised all sorts of European 'feudal customs' and looked down on the 'aristocracy' at the same time. Growing up in this environment, it is normal for Sharon to be curious about these things.
"Hopefully!"
Theoretically, you can also seal a knight and send it away. While it may seem a bit 'weird' to have a knight run a town, it doesn't seem like a big deal considering it's a remote town in a remote area.
Even if Winter Town is successfully established, it will not become an important town in the Kingdom of Tiran because of its geographical location, and there is no need for any 'big man' to sit in the town, and he will casually give David a knighthood, and there is no problem from a legal point of view.
"Do you think there is anything missing besides bedding and daily necessities for washing and eating?" David wrote for a while, looking at what was recorded in his notebook, David was not sure if he had been negligent, and after reading out what was written on it, he asked a few women opposite.
"I don't think you need to spend time building beds after the big wooden houses are built, you can buy bunk beds directly, so that more people can live in each big house." Eva looked at Peggy and Sharon next to her, after a day of familiarity, they were more familiar, and knew that they were giving themselves a chance to perform: "This kind of thing should be very affordable, right?" If it is a detachable metal tube structure, it is not difficult to transport. β
"Great idea!" David didn't think about it at all, he only thought about building more cabins, and if he chose to buy a double bed, it would take only half the time to get all the craftsmen in place.
"If you can, you can buy some radiators." Compared with the main building log cabin in Winter Village, the heating of the large wooden house is more troublesome. Make a fireplace in the cabin, and if the fire is lit, the temperature of the whole cabin will be very high; A large wooden house is not good, because the space is too large and empty, and it is impossible to ensure enough indoor temperature by just lighting a fire by fireplace.
If you can install enough radiators in the house, you can ensure the temperature of the whole house.
"I almost forgot about it." David slapped his head hard, he actually forgot this kind of winter artifact, this is really a mistake that should not be made, and sure enough, it is easy to fall into the wrong thinking when he is bored and blind, and he is always stuck in one train of thought: "Thanks to you, Eva, it really helped." β
Looking at the list of radiators, bunk beds (metal tube spliced structure), bedding, daily necessities, etc., recorded in his notebook, he knew that he would need to rely on Laura to show her money ability and purchase all these materials.
After reading the list again, discussing it with Eva and Peggy, and determining how much was enough, David finally closed the notebook.
David, who had done the necessary work, was also in the mood to gossip: "Where's Steve?" I don't seem to see him today. β
"Steve said that there may be some things to be busy lately, and he may not come over every day recently." Regarding Steve, it was right to ask Peggy, and Eva took the opportunity to ask who Steve was?
"Steve Rogers, also a super soldier......"
"It looks like there are a lot of people in the village that I haven't seen yet." After listening to Peggy's brief introduction to Steve, Eva became interested in the rest of the village.
So far, she's only seen Laura, Mark, Peggy, Sharon, and Jonah, and none of the others have seen the others.
As soon as Eva finished speaking, a 'group of figures' appeared in the clearing not far away, and then Fording came with Van Cleef and the craftsmen of the Masons' Guild.
"This is Tirio Fortin." David pointed to the middle-aged man with the most conspicuous physique and introduced: "The one with the red scarf around his neck next to him is Edwin Van Cleef, and the others should be craftsmen...... Oh, you and they can't communicate yet, you're both speaking completely different languages. β
Speaking of this, David reminded Eva by the way: "Remember to ask me for a textbook on learning the local lingua franca in English in a while." β
"Okay."
Got up to greet the new craftsmen, and then, together with Van Cleef, took them to the newly built big wooden house, which was not yet fully built, but could barely live in it, and the craftsmen came early to complete the construction of the wooden house as soon as possible.
While introducing the small Winter Village to several craftsmen, David explained his ideas and some plans: for example, the two wooden houses are only temporary residences, and the next priority will be given to building completely personal residences for all craftsmen and their families, and as for the construction of Winter Town, we will wait until everyone adapts to life here.
During the conversation, Fording brought in more craftsmen, and then David took many of the craftsmen to the cafeteria, where Jonah made a sumptuous dinner for everyone, and asked them what they wanted.
The small notebook was opened again, and the records were kept being recorded according to the requests made by the craftsmen - because they only brought their belongings to move, the craftsmen needed to buy various tools to start working.
Other than that, the craftsmen barely talked about their personal needs, and they felt that having a place to live and enough to eat was enough for now.
"I've written them all down and will solve them for you as soon as possible."
When he had chatted with the craftsmen for a meal and sent them to the big cabin to rest and leave, David noticed that Leonard had arrived.
David took a closer look and saw that Leonard had brought all of his friends with him, and one of them was a tall, thin man with a big smile on his face, circling around Fordin, completely ignoring the women next to him, including Laura.
Instead, one of the blonde women sat with Laura, looking at the tall, thin man who looked very excited and whispering something, while an Indian and a skinny Jew stood next to her, as if they were talking about something...... Well, the Indians didn't speak, just gestured and gestured.
David took a look and saw that the first few of the main characters of the Big Bang Theory were here: tall, lanky theoretical physicist Sheldon Cooper, blonde waitress part-time street actor Penny, Indian astrophysicist Rajesh Kusapari, and Jewish engineer Howard Wolowitz.
"Hello, Leonard!"
"Hi, David." Leonard turned his head to see Davy and greeted him warmly, he was very proud to be able to bring his friends to visit this magical place, and he finally met the legendary Tirio Fortin: "Thank you for letting me bring my friends over." β
"You're welcome, look like your friend...... Loved it here. After a glance, he immediately withdrew his gaze, ignoring Ferdin's helpless eyes: "Introduce me to your friends!" β
"Oh, of course, this is Penny!"
As soon as Leonard's words came out, the blonde woman named Penny had already stood in front of David, and quickly straightened her hair: "Hi~ I'm Penny, are you the village chief here?" It's not what I imagined! β
Looking at the enthusiastic Penny, David felt that Eva, Peggy, Sharon, Laura, Leonard, Howard, and Rajesh's eyes were focused on him in an instant.
