Chapter 86: Thanksgiving

That night, the mountain barbarians, who were downlived in life and death, held another banquet in the manor.

Eating meat and drinking, singing and dancing, with warm and unrestrained cheerful laughter, diluted the sorrow of life and death parting.

The next day Lawrence began to prepare for the move.

"I've been busy since the spring, and now there's two houses in the cave," says Sariel. ”

Lawrence spends most of his time busy with other things, and pays less attention to the cave.

"Well, do you think the cave can be lived in now?"

Sariel shook her head, "The stones and wood inside haven't been cleaned up, and it will be a few days before they can be done." ”

Delen added: "I've done a good shower first these days, and then I can go in and take a shower." ”

Lawrence quickly said, "Wait until I have the approximate order figured out." ”

Sariel was already in a hurry.

"You haven't thought about it yet, have you? I've been thinking about it since last winter, but I haven't thought about it yet. ”

Lawrence is not in as much of a hurry as Sariel, and some things have to be done slowly.

"I was thinking about the structure of the castle, not about the house in the cave, but today I remembered about the plumbing, and we need to set up the outlet sewer and the water inlet."

"It's better to have a toilet like a flushing toilet that relies on the pressure of the water to flush everything down the drain into the river outside."

Saliel blinked at Lawrence and remained silent.

Lawrence gestured with his hands and explained to the crowd.

"There is a natural underground water spring outside the cave, and we can make a rotating waterwheel to lift the water from the stones to the mountain, and then create pressure in the reservoir on the mountain."

"The water will slowly press down, and the air and water in the whole pipe will be pressed out one after another, and of course there will be some valves in the middle."

Saliel wondered, "How can the water in the stone have the strength to turn the waterwheel?" ”

Lawrence took the spoon and put it in the cup, "You can add a pipe to the outlet of the spring outside, so that the water will all drip into the tank of the water wheel, and when the water in one tank is full, it will be shifted down a bit, and then the second tank will continue to receive water." ”

"Heavy things fall, light ones rise, and then gradually carry the water from the first tank to the tank on the mountain."

Salyl looked at Lawrence and asked, "How do you send it?" ”

Lawrence was glad that Sariel would be curious about this, rather than impatiently blaming everything on herself.

Interested, curious, wanting to know, that's all good thing.

If you want to try to do it, so much the better.

"You can set the angle of the sink, and when it rises to a high place, it is at an inclined angle, and the water inside automatically falls into the sink next to it."

Sarriel still doesn't understand that the water from the previous hydro mill is finally back in the water, and this time the waterwheel to be made is to raise the water from the lower places to the higher places.

Saliel looked at Delenn and Keharan, "Do you understand?" ”

Both Delenn and Khallan shook their heads, "I don't understand. ”

Sophia followed up and said, "I don't understand either. ”

Saliel happily, "yes, so am I, Lawrence doesn't know what he said at all. ”

Lawrence said: "You will know when I make it, this is really difficult to understand, it is difficult to understand without physical objects. ”

From the setting of sewers, to the distribution of water inlets and pipes, Lawrence had a lot to consider, and the waterwheel was not in a hurry.

Loshanda found it amused, and when she saw that everyone else was fine, she spoke her mind.

"Since you can bring water from the bottom of the mountain to the mountain, is there a way to bring water from the well to the earth?"

Lawrence immediately thought of the pressurized water well, "Yes, I'll make one or two, so that I can save the production of water wheels, and it is easier to get water." ”

Deren said, "Then I'll go and make the cave bigger." ”

Loshanda smiled: "I can also help, if I move in earlier, I can start work here sooner." ”

Lawrence wanted Delenn to help him make a pressurized water well, but when he saw that Delenn had something to do, he nodded and agreed.

There was no hurry in the matter of pressurized wells, so Lawrence wanted to leave the matter to his craftsmen.

Exercising these people's skills more can improve everyone's thinking and vision.

In the future, most places will have to make pressurized water wells, and the sooner these people can understand this technology, they can pass it on to more people.

There is only one Delen, but the craftsmanship can be passed on to many people.

Lawrence said: "It is enough to expand the area of the cave to 500 square meters, and at present it is mainly for our usual cooking, resting, entertainment, and bathing, and other things will be developed slowly in the future." ”

Sariel said quickly, "So small? How is this enough, it is already 600 square meters now, and the height is more than five meters! ”

Lawrence didn't expect such a large area to be expanded in the cave, "How did you do that?" Hollowing out such a large area in the mountains? ”

From the beginning of spring, when there was still snow, to the present half a year, the spring, summer and autumn here are very short, in fact, not long.

"That's it," Saliel explained, "Delen dug a hole in it first, and then everyone went to different places separately, and both Loshanda and Delen often helped, and more and more people went in and dug it, and then that's it. ”

Emma took the initiative to add: "Everyone knows that you are building a new house for the owner, and they all work hard in it, there is no difference between day and night in the cave, and sometimes they will go in at night to dig some stones to build a house. ”

Lawrence only ordered a few people to take charge of this, and did not expect that many more people would actually help themselves.

This kind of thing surprised and touched Lawrence, "In this way, I can't ignore the efforts of these people, but serve me, even if it is only to help dig a stone, I must reward it well." ”

"Those who dig holes and build stone houses for me will be rewarded with ten eggs each, and ten pounds of meat for the winter!"

Emma smiled, "Yes, master, your servant people will praise you for your kindness. ”

The joy in Lawrence's heart could not be quelled.

There were not just two people under them, but a large group of people, and no matter where they came from, they supported their orders and took the initiative to build new houses for themselves, even if they didn't need to sacrifice their rest time to do them.

These are from awe, but also from the bottom of the heart.

This group of people knows gratitude and knows who led them to a good life.

Although this is a matter of course, Lawrence is accustomed to staying in the country of barbarians, and has always been accustomed to the bandit mentality of barbarians, and today he suddenly found that everyone has the spirit of gratitude and solidarity that only civilized people have, and he was immediately excited.

These people know to be grateful, and Lawrence should treat them well.

"We don't need to build a castle first, it will take many years to build a castle, we will build the city in the cave ourselves, and let the carpenters repair their own homes first."

"Use your spare time to fix your roof and walls, make some beds, tables and chairs for your children, or renovate the camp, in short, to make it more comfortable in the winter!"

"I'll make the wood, and I'll lend the nails and hammers and other tools, and when their houses are finished, they'll build me a castle!"
