Chapter 18: Scaffolding and Carpenters
In the afternoon.
Seeing that it was almost dark, Vondolph led someone to send Margaret back to the chief priest's house.
“1,2,3!”
Several porters shouted and carried the bundled samarium knives to the wheelbarrow.
Margaret was stunned: "What is this for?" ”
"I'm going to deliver the samarium knife that has been remodeled from the old sickle."
"That's not what I'm asking."
The chief priestess pointed to the wheelbarrow: "What is this?" ”
"A trolley made of hardwood. The Norse tribe didn't? ”
Margaery nodded: "No, the goods are either carried in longships or in Roman four-wheeled vehicles." ”
Feng Dolph suddenly smelled the smell of silver coins and experience: "I'll introduce you to the performance, you can help me refer to whether it is good to sell." ”
"I built two types of wide frame and narrow frame, the wide frame can carry 250 kilograms, the narrow frame can carry 150 kilograms, can reach 25 kilometers ~ 40 kilometers per day, the passing capacity is very strong, can be passed on rugged dirt roads, mountain roads."
"Vondolph, will it be unstable?"
"It's very stable, you can use it to know."
Feng Dolph kicked the two pillars on both sides of the wheelbarrow on his toes: "There are pillars, if the shaking is too strong, when it is about to roll over, the pillars can withstand it." Most of the time, it can prevent rollover, as long as it is not overloaded too much. ”
"What do you think?"
Vondolph looked at Margaret expectantly.
The priestess said earnestly, "It will be more popular than a samarium knife." ”
Horses were very expensive, and a single horse cost three or four hundred silver coins, and most farmers did not have horses at home.
Families who don't have horses can either carry their own goods or rent a horse-drawn carriage with their neighbors.
Even families with horses will be tempted, after all, horses are very squeamish, and they have to take care of food and drink.
In comparison, it is much easier to squeeze yourself than to squeeze a horse.
Hearing Margaret's explanation, Vondolph thought for a while and said, "What do you think of selling 5 silver coins on a wide shelf and 3 silver coins on a narrow shelf?" ”
"I just often go to the rural areas for free clinics, so I know a little bit about the situation, but I don't know their psychology."
The chief priestess pointed to the employees, "You should ask them. ”
They replied, "We are willing to buy a freight trolley with less than two weeks' income." But I think those with average income may choose to build their own. ”
Feng Dolph: "Whoever makes the beating beats whom." ”
Margaret: "? ”
Feng Daofu looked at her in surprise: "This kind of guy who steals the glory of my god, don't you want to teach a lesson?" ”
The chief priestess's charming saffron eyeshadow moved: "I always feel that you are much more shameless than the first time we met." ”
Feng Daofu said in his heart that there should be too many magic sticks, which is like this.
As we all know, Io has no specific appearance, and can be said to be a Faceling.
Those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black, of course, this one who is close to God is shameless.
In short, the plan to sell the unicycle was set.
When I went out, I passed by the industrial area, and there were already Norwegians who had come back from collecting sand.
These strong Norwegian men didn't try much, but they also pushed the wheelbarrow seriously, and carried the clay at a normal pace to the kiln.
The North workers who were squatting next to him pushed the bellows vigorously to make the fire in the kiln burn more vigorously, and there was no intention of bothering the Norwegians at all.
But the Holy One said that this was to build the first worship church of the Aeopaths.
In the face of faith, the Norse put away all their rebellion.
Surrey, who organized the brickburners, also took the initiative to say hello: "Hard work. ”
The Norwegian was a little surprised, and subconsciously said: "It's not hard, for the sake of the true god Io." ”
Surrey's smile was much more sincere: "That's right, for the sake of the true god Io." ”
Feng Dolph nodded secretly.
Although it was still a lot worse than what he wanted to see, he was already very satisfied with the initial harmony without verbs.
After spending a long time together, participating in daily rituals together, feeling the collective atmosphere of the church more, and having a collective goal of making money, and having the material and spiritual things in place, the Norwegians and Norse people will soon be able to assimilate into a whole.
This is like the beginning of the new moon, when a group of people came together in order to make money and do dinner.
Human society is cohesive through the exchange of various interests.
The core interests are in place, and the complex capital can be grouped together to form various associations, but it is not difficult for the Germanic tribes to assimilate into a community of Io-pravy.
Just on the way, it was a newly surrendered captive, and Feng Daofu walked over to offer condolences.
With Tim's blessing, the Norwegians had already recognized Ioism and had great respect for him as a saint.
Not to mention the Norse.
"Everyone has worked hard during this time, and everyone eats and drinks well at the evening banquet."
Feng Dolph shook off the real cake and asked with concern, "Is there any difficulty now?" ”
Surrey said directly and honestly: "There is no difficulty, the new brick making machine you built is very easy to use." ”
"Give the Sage a show!"
The brick burner next to him skillfully conveyed the well-proportioned materials into the feeder, and then made a gesture.
The cattle herd directed two short, stocky manatees onto the conveyor belt.
The animal force drives the shaft under the wooden track, and the large flywheel mounted on the shaft begins to rotate, driving the pulley to mix the material evenly to form the raw material billet, and then enter the extrusion system and extrude it into a block of standard bricks.
Vondolph was satisfied.
In vain, he spent a few nights grinding out a qualified ruler, using the Maudsley method to improve the accuracy of the ruler, and then relying on the accuracy of the ruler, he replaced the simple wooden machine tool with an iron casting machine.
This is exactly what Engineering Dog is best at, and the tool is self-iterating.
Although the next step is to be stuck by smelting, the processing is not upgraded, but at present this set is enough, coupled with his excellent invention ideas, rubbing out of this animal-powered brick machine has been praised by brick burners.
"Very good, you have mastered it, and learning is exactly what the Eda Sutra encourages."
Vondolph clapped his hands and asked, "Have you recruited any new cattle herders?" ”
Sarri shook his head embarrassedly: "Many cattle herders have come and tried it, but it is not enough for the cattle to work obediently and steadily. ”
"What about the Wrangler?"
"A lot of people came to try it, but it was okay at first, and the horses didn't work for a while."
Vondolph shouted pity in his heart.
If you can command the cattle and horses, the animal power harvester, animal power forging machine, animal power blower and other cattle and horse happy series can be directly launched.
Master the black technology of the Middle Ages, step into the era of animal mechanization, and win the world's best invention award!
Although it is very painful to not do the best because of the lack of technical work, the temporary start of the brick-making animal power machine is enough to improve the productivity.
"But there's still a big gap between the daily output and the number you requested."
Surrey's face darkened by the charcoal burning was full of shame.
It has only been less than half a month since the brick-burning technology was lit.
At the beginning, it was the primitive people's soil method of burning bricks, and the Australian brother loved the stacked Arhat-style firing process in his bones.
When the brick-burners became skilled, they also burned enough bricks by the soil method, and used these bricks to build a sunken kiln pit developed by the Warring States with higher internal temperature and better efficiency.
At present, one kiln a day, with a daily output of 500 standard bricks, has built several kilns to meet the building material needs of student dormitories.
This is certainly not enough to build a brick and wood church.
Considering the low temperature of minus 14 degrees Celsius on average in this ghost place in winter, and considering the weight of the snow, Vondolph gave enough design redundancy when making the design.
Referring to the design of the woolly bear, the sandwich wall, the inner and outer layers, the middle is the air sandwich layer and the insulation material, and the thickness of the wall is directly pulled to 80 cm, highlighting a hairy bear bunker-style brick building style.
The price of simplicity and crudence is that the amount of bricks used has skyrocketed.
Like the renovation design of the old house in the south, in order to insulate the heat, the walls are all 24 empty buckets, and a three-story small building uses 70,000 bricks.
The weight of the snow should be taken into account when building a house in the north, and the load-bearing walls and roofs are more than twice as thick as those in the south, basically 50, and the same three-story building requires twice as many bricks.
The church he designed was thicker, with at least 200,000 bricks to be built as a whole, which could be used as a compact version of the castle.
There may not be a sense of Gothic religion, but in Scandinavia, you can only think about keeping warm first, and grasp the five keys of 'sealing, wall thickness, small windows, low floors, and rising sun'.
Moreover, in the Norse tribe, the construction of a three-story church is enough to arouse religious enthusiasm.
The problem is that there are more than 200,000 bricks, and even if there is an animal-powered brick machine, it can't be burned in a year just by relying on an earthen kiln.
Feng Dolph expected it when he designed it, and patted Sarry on the shoulder: "This problem is beyond your ability, and when there are enough people after a while, I will personally transform it into a wheel kiln." ”
The wheel kiln has a continuous annular kiln road, the bricks are placed on the kiln car, the car is sent to the furnace along the track, and the brick embryo with the back yard has just entered, and the fired bricks in front have come out.
Each fire is produced in three shifts day and night, each shift is eight hours, and the daily output of each fire can reach 60,000 bricks.
The efficiency is certainly not as good as that of modern kilns such as tunnel kilns and roller kilns, but the advantage is that the difficulty of building is low, and the existing cast iron machine tools can be processed.
If you don't point out the animal-powered brick machine + wheel kiln, it is useless to have soil cement.
"With these three things, the Io-O Church can be regarded as a real development."
"But that's not enough, we also need qualified workers to make our lives better, so those who pray must pay attention to education and advocate knowledge," said Vondolf. ”
Sarri quietly jotted down: "You're right. ”
"Io's A, church's A, and arrow's A. The arrow is sharp and painful, we should be patient, but it is really tiring to make a brick mold, fortunately we have you, with your knowledge, we can relax, we have all felt the importance of knowledge. ”
"In the past, I was in charge of food, housing and heating, and I could get a stable salary of 3 silver coins a week, and the treatment was good, but it was too tiring to burn bricks, and many people hesitated."
"Now that you have invented the tools, it is easier to burn bricks than it is to do farm work and porters, and many people in North Town are eager to come and work here."
Sarri said with a smile.
Feng Daofu said in his heart that A still means this?
What did you make up in your head when I didn't know?
After a while, are you going to say, 'My lord, it's cold, put on some clothes?' 'And weld a yellow garment to me?'
By the way, the Norwegians have not yet reported the matter, and it is not time to turn the other cheek, so I will go to the town and talk to the chief......
As they talked, Margaret looked at the place that had changed dramatically.
The blacksmith's house, which was originally empty, is now home to many more buildings.
Or kilns or student residences.
It looks like a thriving small gathering place.
When Feng Dolph returned from his condolences, the chief priestess couldn't help but admire: "Your merits are almost comparable to Thor's." ”
At this time, the Norse people believed that Thor was the protector of craftsmen, and such praise was a praise for the good construction.
But Vondolph still felt that she was scolding herself......
However, when it comes to development, it is also because of this fiery development momentum that many unsatisfactory low-level Norse people come to hug the black prince's thighs.
Some big sisters and aunts also want to deeply feel the wisdom of the sages.
If it weren't for the fact that there was no fate in appearance, for the sake of missionary work and the development of human civilization, Feng Daofu gritted his teeth and recognized it.
It turns out that it is still a Slavic girl incense.
When Vondolf thought of Maurle, he thought of the ancestral land of the Slavs.
There are more people to feed, and the demand for food is increasing.
At present, a small part of the grain can be purchased in the towns, and most of it is bartered with nearby agricultural areas.
However, if the number of purchases continues, there will not be enough nearby agricultural areas, and the purchase volume in Noth Town will increase, which will most likely attract the attention of the nobles of Noth Town.
Just do a little religious ritual when you deliver the baby, they won't be confused, but if you buy so much food, it's two different things.
When the ice and sea freeze to bear fruit, go to the Slavs and plunder more food and women... Free Trade Point Grain and Recruitment of Unemployed Female Workers.
By the way, it is also to leave a strategic retreat...... Feng Daofu casually found a topic: "Do you want to build a brick building for yourself?" ”
"I'll talk about it when you build the first one."
Margaret paused and said with concern: "Are you short of money?" ”
"If you raise more than 100 people, the money will not be enough at any time."
Feng Daofu took out a knife and wood, and cut as he walked: "It's still within my scope of responsibility, don't worry." ”
Margaret doesn't ask this anymore.
Bored on the road, her eyes were fixed on Feng Dolph's hand again.
Looking at Vondolph's nimble fingers, Margaret suddenly found that she seemed to be much faster than before?
I lost my mind again last night, and I didn't pay attention to it, but I immediately felt the difference when I saw it during the day.
She couldn't help but ask, "Your fingers seem to be getting faster?" ”
"Is there one? Maybe you're used to the speed of my hand injury, and I'll try to get you used to my full strength. ”
"Phew!"
Margaret took a sip on him and decided not to speak to him for an hour.
After a while, some employees couldn't help but ask curiously, "What are you going to build?" ”
Feng Dolph replied casually: "I am designing teaching aids for students to understand the mechanical principles. ”
Mechanics or something, Margaret doesn't know much about it.
She just watched Feng Daofu work so hard, and her brain made up a lot.
I shouldn't have done that to him...... The chief priestess broke her vow: "Hard work. ”
Feng Daofu subconsciously replied: "It's not hard. ”
Well?
Do you always feel that this kind of brain supplement seems a bit familiar?
Forget it, continue to brush up on experience.
Last night's one-handed skill upgrade, the specialty - Swift Strike bonus was only 2%.
Originally, I thought that this addition was not enough to plug the gap between the teeth, and it was a bit boring, but now I feel different when cutting with a knife, and with another specialty, the efficiency has been significantly improved.
It didn't take long for Vondolph to cut the wood gears and assemble them into a simple pulley set, and finally got the hint he wanted.
"Project upgrade!"
"Gain the specialty - Carpenter (+33% Equipment Durability, +12% Town Construction Speed)"
The infrastructure magic skills are in hand!
Vondolph blew the sawdust off his hands.
During this time, the technology tree of the animal power machine has been upgraded.
"Engineering Expertise - Scaffolding (+10% Weapon Build Speed, +30% Shield Durability)"
Frequent manufacturing of tools finally got the two key engineering expertise.
If it weren't for the setting, only the side you held would be able to enjoy the shield durability bonus.
Otherwise, +30% is enough to make the vine shield qualitatively change, and then completely change the way the Norse light infantry fights.
It's not perfect, but the infrastructure bonus is fantastic.
For example, the unicycle originally lacked rubber and had a lot of wear and tear, but now it becomes very durable after the durability is +33%.
There are also those wooden animal power machines, which are far less durable than steel machines, and can last a long time after being bonus...... It's useless to stand for a long time, it's super long and long-lasting, but it's useless.
Where are the beast tamers?
With a faint sadness, Vondolph sent Margaret into the chief priest's house.
As soon as she sat down and had not yet taken a sip of tea, a priestess said that a woman was about to give birth.
Vondolph rushed around carrying the relics.
Efficiently delivered two babies, and received two bags of charitable donations, and the news that I had always wanted to see came.
"Within a month, let 100 couples recognize the city of piety from the bottom of their hearts (satisfied)"
"The Treasure is Formed!"
"Treasure - Midwifery Forceps (Iotic Treasure, Cultist Fertility +10, Believer Pregnancy Complications −10%, Believer Vitality +1, Monthly Piety +1)"
"Trade upgrade!"
"Gain Specialty - Caravan Leader (+30% Unit Logistics Load)"
The treasure was successfully conceived and the logistics magic was happy.
Feng Dolph was in a better mood, and asked Wanda and other students who had learned multiplication and introductory accounting to hand over the payment, leaving a few more guards, and he moved to the chief's longhouse.
