Chapter 3 Stinky people also want to climb the science tree?
When he arrived at his location, Vondolph was about to knock on the door, when Sarri rushed over: "Vondolph, I forgot to mention just now, our community needs to maintain the fence during this winter break. β
"At the tribal assembly, every farm should set aside three months for maintenance every two years, and this year is the maintenance year."
βοΌβ
Vondolph looked at the fence made of turf and stone.
While trapping and protecting the pasture, it is also the first line of defense for the community.
How did you see it at the beginning, but now you ......
Jobs such as building walls, fertilizing the land, herding pigs and sheep, and digging peat were previously done by slaves...... The shortage of manpower has increased.
"I see."
Vondolph's urgency +1.
Bidding farewell to Surrey, Vondolph turned over and dismounted, and entered the house with light and heavy steps.
The three hairs were well-behaved: "Little master." β
Feng Dolph nodded, and dashingly threw the money bag containing the silver coin to the largest large hairy carrot in the middle.
Da Mao Luo subconsciously took it, and her body shook for a while.
She lowered her head, not seeing it at first.
Hurriedly stretched out his hand a little, only to finally see the money bag that was not blocked: "Master, what is this?" β
"Just earned." Feng Daofu said: "I'll count the family's assets later...... Will you settle accounts? β
Big Mao Luo shook her head blankly.
The smallest of the petite little hairy carrots' eyes moved.
Vondolph noticed: "Will you?" β
Xiao Maoluo nodded timidly: "It will be a little bit." β
Vondolph examined it and found that she was not lying: it really would be a little.
Addition and subtraction within 10 fingers.
Vondolph: "What is 20-4?" β
Little Woolly didn't have enough fingers and looked at her toes.
Vondolph: "What about 50-10?" β
Little Mao Luo looked at the long hair Luo with the longest leg next to her.
Vondolph also watched it.
This is the pure gaze of the thirst for talent.
It's a little worse, but now there is a shortage of people, so it's okay for the time being.
Mr. Vondolph assigned the work.
The big poll took the pigs to the forest not far away, where they were stocked with natural acorns and beech seeds.
Authentic pollution-free pigs~
This direction is an area where the Norse people often move, so you don't have to worry about any beasts.
The long-haired carrot took the rest of the animals to the pasture.
Little Mao Luo made the ledger with him, and calculated by the way how much it would cost to hire people.
"You commanded three hairnuts, Domination +7"
"Woo, master, I can't count it!"
Xiao Maoluo hugged her toes, her toes and eyes were going to turn in circles.
Feng Daofu patted his ass and stood up: "You take care of the chickens, ducks and geese." β
Xiao Maoluo raised her head: "Don't need me?" β
Vondolph said, "I've got it done. β
Xiao Maoluo suddenly looked like the owner was so powerful.
Feng Dolph resisted the urge to pinch her face and wrote down the ledger.
"A professional carpenter is paid 3 silver coins a day, a professional stonemason is paid 4 silver coins a day, and an ordinary worker is paid 4 silver coins a week."
"The simplest kind of cowshed in modern times can be completed in eight days, which is twice as long in ancient times, and it is certainly not open here in Northern Europe."
Feng Daofu happened to have studied with a teacher at Tongliao University of Technology.
"Build the double-row stables I envisioned, arranged in two opposite rows, with a passage in the middle, which can separate cattle and horses and other livestock, do a good job of sealing, heating, and maximize the protection of livestock."
"There are few livestock, the scale is small, I don't know if I can get it in 20 days, in short, I will calculate it according to the cost of 200 silver coins."
"Grass and work for me, this piece will be counted as 20 silver coins."
"Cost: 220 credits."
"That's all for now."
"The property of a blacksmith, not counting longhouses, iron-making furnaces, tools, etc."
"1 silver coin can buy 2 chickens, a cow can sell for 72~120 silver coins, a steer can sell 157 silver coins, and a horse can be sold for 240 silver coins, and a sheep ...... The total value of livestock and poultry is about 2,000 silver coins. β
"Stockpiled cereals, cured meats, salted fish, cheese, honey, ale, shelf-stable rusks, etc., worth a total of 300 silver coins."
"There used to be more than a dozen people, but now there are only four left, and the food is a bit too much, so you have to hurry up."
"And then there was iron ore, firewood, iron ingots, and three slave girls...... These are worth 100 silver coins. β
"Finally, and most importantly."
Feng Dolph looked at the boxes piled high with silver: "A total of 10 kg of silver. β
The weight of 1 silver coin is about 4g.
These 10 kilograms of silver are enough to make three or four thousand silver coins.
"I have a tenfold urge to be flexible and multiply."
Vondolph closed the silver chest.
Lock it and carefully change the place to hide it.
These blacksmith legacies are only in hand, and do not mean that they can be used freely.
Because it has not yet been recognized by the Norse tribe, it has truly become the heir to the blacksmith's estate.
Regardless of the opinion of the other Norse, Vondolph was not allowed to happily spend the money of the blacksmith couple before completing his revenge.
He's just flexible and flexible, not without discipline.
Isn't it just more than 200 silver coins, and it's not that you can't earn it.
To divert attention, Vondolph opened the panel that had just been ringing.

......
It's getting dark.
A grazing North farmer returns home with his livestock.
The group walked to the blacksmith's house with some laughter and laughter.
Inside, Surrey said, "It's the Black Prince's house now." β
"Because of the black prince, the blacksmith will leave a name in history in the future, and there may be such a poem, which begins with saying: Once, when the black prince was young, there was a legendary blacksmith adoptive father."
For the sake of Feng Dolph's banquet, the Norse people were very pragmatic and blew along.
Feng Daofu smiled: "Let's wash your hands and face first." β
Everyone was cleaned and cleaned, and soap was used.
This is a snatched technology that can both kill bacteria and get rid of lice.
"It's just a little more expensive."
Sarri complained: "If the soap was cheaper, I could use it in the shower every day." β
Others quipped: "No matter how cheap it is, it won't be useful according to your usage." β
"Specially prepared with tweezers, razors, combs and even ear picks, you love to be clean, Sarri."
"Loving cleanliness is the tradition of our Norse tribe, and warriors pay attention to appearance and hygiene, so that they will be favored by the Valkyries."
Sarri is right: "It's like we build toilets to collect feces and keep the town of North clean and hygienic. β
"Because we love cleanliness, that's why Goddess Govon blesses us with fertile soil."
The banquet is a buffet format.
Prepare ingredients such as seafood and poultry, and eat them on a barbecue fork if you want to.
Salt may not be enough, but condiments like wild leeks and garlic are definitely enough.
The staple food is barley porridge, and if I don't like it, I prepare dough, flatten it myself, and cook it over an open fire.
It's a little dry, but it's just right to eat it with cabbage, radish, beans, garlic, onions, and other stews with soup and soft vegetables.
The food is warm, and Kan Dashan is more energetic.
In the night chat, a group of people gather around the fire, drinking and eating meat is secondary, the main thing is to see who can speak and want to show their eloquence.
Kan Dashan, no matter that civilized man, loves to do it.
Vondolph listened to it quite interestingly.
Although it's a bit of nonsense that love cleanliness and god's blessing are involved, it's still very comfortable to not worry about when you enter town.
When the atmosphere was about the same, Feng Dolph took out some big red robes disguised with herbs.
"I feel better."
"I feel the same."
"It's a royal potion!"
Under the placebo effect, the Norse felt great and became more curious about the Eastern Empire.
Sarri said, "Vondolph, tell me a paragraph. β
Vondolph thought for a moment and told a mythical story.
The persuasive intensity increased by diplomatic Lv2 made the ordinary stories wonderful in Feng Dolph's mouth, and the neighbors were fascinated by it, and stayed for a while before reluctantly leaving.
The three hairs cleaned up the mess and fed the chickens, ducks, geese and pigs with water in the pot.
Vondolph came to the tool room.
In the middle of the room was an elliptical iron-making furnace with leather blows and ingot troughs underneath. After the furnace is refined, the liquid slag is released first, and then the molten iron is released, which will solidify into iron ingots in the tank.
Not far away is an original anvil made from a large tree stump, similar to a layer of cast iron poured from the stump.
On the left is a wooden workbench with tools neatly arranged, and cones and hammers for mining ore are placed on the ground.
On the right side are iron and finished product shelves, including plows, rakes, sickles and other agricultural tools commonly used by the Norse people, as well as kitchen knives, scissors, door knockers, iron nails, door plugs, etc.
Vondolph walked over and picked up the small hammer on it.
It is about 3kg, flat on one side and pointed on the other.
"You've walked 1 km, +2 runs"
"Running Lv1 (63%)"
The message pops up in the corner of the eye.
If you are on business and have a high level of concentration, the panel will not pop up messages that will affect the battle or work.
Looking at the hidden news, Feng Dolph thought of the 1 free attribute given by the upgrade.
Referring to the difference between the panel and reality, Vondolph did not move.
The age is still young, the body is still growing rapidly, and the cost performance is too low to use now, so it is better to wait for the adult ability to reach the bottleneck period before using it...... Wait, what if it's to improve your talent?
For example, from picking one wrestler level in 10,000 miles, to becoming a million overlord color level.
"If you don't use it, you'll never know, just like if you don't try seven times a night, how do you know your limit."
"You have to use it as a reference."
"10 points of power is enough."
But Vondolph still allocated power.
also whispered: "Panel, add points!" β
The panel flickered, and a stream of heat ...... Well, it didn't.
Vondolph blinked, and the little hammer became much lighter.
It's upside down, and the normal strength is about a dozen kilograms more?
After testing it, Vondolph could be sure that it was a talent improvement.
"Even if it's a high-speed growth period now, it won't be wasted if you use attribute points."
The test was a little sweaty, and Vondolph was in shape, with a strong urge to hammer something.
"Heat the stove first."
Vondolf came to the cubicle.
Iron ore and firewood are placed in compartments for simple drying.
The pile of firewood that has been sawn into pieces and chopped into small pieces is very high, like a low city wall, and you have to worry about whether it will become a mountain code when you smoke firewood.
The Norse tribe has a habit of using charcoal as fuel in large quantities, and the family uses several tons of firewood every year.
This demand led to the birth of large and small firewood bars, or retail stores or stalls specializing in the firewood business in Northtown, and many farms made money by providing charcoal to Northtown as a side business.
The blacksmith will also do this, and the quality of the dried firewood is better, and it is exclusively for the nobles.
Feng Dolph thought to himself that this connection could not be lost.
"There aren't enough people."
Vondolf came up with the idea of dry distillation of wood.
Technology and tools that can increase productivity can barely compensate for this problem.
In fact, when Feng Daofu lived in the blacksmith's house, his first reaction was that if he wanted to do his job well, he must first sharpen his tools.
Feng Dolph does not have the 'spirit of craftsmanship' or 'ancient feelings', and has to be forged in the tradition.
A teacher at his university said that when he was young, he worked as a carpenter, and in the early nineties he bought a small carpentry multi-purpose lathe, which made him as happy as something.
Why? Because this thing can greatly improve work efficiency.
It used to take ten days to make a cabinet.
With a lathe, it can be done in three days.
The improvement of efficiency means an increase in income, which means a great increase in the lower limit of quality.
In ancient times, a good bed was even the top dowry for the daughter of a wealthy family, and you can imagine the difficulty of pure handwork.
Human beings are best at inventing and using tools, tools improve efficiency and provide operational accuracy, 99% of craftsmen would rather have good tools than the so-called craftsman spirit, and the remaining 1% are ready to cut leeks.
Even the neon knife makers who insisted on the ancient method of forging knives used power hammers.
As soon as he came to this world, Feng Dolph tried, without attracting attention, he used his clever head melon and began to take shortcuts unique to traversers.
The water flow is frozen, and the hydraulic machine cannot be lit.
But it's not a big problem, go straight to the generator!
Generators do better than steam engines.
The steam engine also needs metal processing accuracy and tightness, and the generator only needs to understand the basic electromagnetic principle, have qualified copper wire and soft magnetic materials on the rotor.
Knowledge is in the mind, copper is ready-made, insulation is made with rosin, soft magnetism with cast iron, really can't find a way to use lacquered copper to wrap around the cast iron, relying on the strong current of thunder and lightning to magnetize.
Although the resistivity is low, the eddy current loss is large, the core is prone to aging, and it is very undurable, so it needs to be replaced frequently, but it can solve the problem from scratch.
With buddy's hands-on ability, rubbing a generator by hand, and then making a blower, a simple power hammer and an electric machine tool to assist in forging, it shouldn't be a big problem!
Then Vondolph realized that he had underestimated the difficulty.
There are too many front-end technologies needed.
Just the simplest copper wire drawing technology has many problems to solve.
Electrolytic copper is not easy to solve, and the second is to use brass + wire drawing plate, and the scrap rate is extremely high.
Barely got it out, and there were more problems.
The generator needs to be rectified, the rectifier needs semiconductors, and it is not impossible to use it temporarily without semiconductors, and the storage of electricity can rely on salt water.
Volts made the first battery by dipping copper and tin sheets in salt water and connecting wires.
If there is no tin, iron and copper electrodes also have voltage.
This simple battery size and energy density garbage to the extreme, and there is no stable DC power supply, the performance will not be too good, but as long as it can be used, more technology can be unlocked, and this problem is solved upside down.
And then the problem came again, there was not so much salt.
As an engineering master at Tongliao University of Technology, Feng Daofu knows no less than 10 methods of salt production, but the problem is that the Baltic Sea is the largest brackish water inland sea.
Nowadays, when only simple salt production technology can be used, the environment restricts Feng Dolph from making salt in large quantities.
Spend money to buy?
The entire Norse tribe doesn't have that much salt.
Besides, climbing and smelting the Tech Tree is to make money.
The money earned may not be enough for the cost of salt.
And most importantly......
"Kinetic energyβ electrical energyβ kinetic energy, isn't this a pain in the idle egg?"
"Why don't I just use the animal power?"
Looking at the ugly generator, Vondolph fell into deep thought.
