Many times, Rebecca felt that she could not understand the thoughts of her ancestors - but the girl with a stubborn head had the advantage that she would not force herself to understand things that were incomprehensible. Anyway, her ancestors spoke. It's never wrong, just follow it.
Looking at Rebecca who happily accepted the order and left, but didn’t even ask why she wanted to burn the stone, Gawain couldn’t help but touched his chin and muttered: Sure enough, everyone is born with their own talents. They are all limited. Adding more or less depends on the dice. Rebecca probably rolled a lot of math and imagination, and the rest were all 1...
But it doesn't matter, since the drawings and basic operation methods were given to her, and she could just watch and figure it out on her own. The actual case of the Magic Network No. 1 project has proven that in addition to being straight-headed and having a low emotional intelligence and often having unreasonable ideas, this girl actually has amazing talents in mathematics and fields that require creativity. This kind of talent type The contestant should be thrown out and allowed to do her best to death. As long as she can survive, there will usually be unexpected gains, but adding a lot of rules and regulations to her will easily limit the results.
Besides, even Gawain himself is not sure how many of the native methods he restored through the earth's memory can be successful...
The "burning stones" After giving the task to Rebecca, Gawain went to the farmland to check on the progress of the reclamation and confirmed that the waterwheel had started to be made. Then he went to the blacksmith shop and gave the old blacksmith Han the new furnace he designed. Merle.
The old blacksmith expressed unconcealable astonishment at the drawings Gawain took out.
He was really surprised.
Hammer knew that the lord was paying attention to the issue of new furnaces, and he still remembered that Gawain had collected some opinions and suggestions from him on making new furnaces a few days ago, but in his concept, It was already unbelievable for an aristocratic master to achieve this step. Next, he would at most find a few craftsmen to help him build a new furnace, and occasionally come over to check on the progress and so on - he never expected that , Gawain actually came directly with the drawings.
When he heard the lord said that the furnace drawings had been drawn, Hammer's first reaction besides being surprised was not surprise, nor was he greatly moved, but nervousness and a headache.
Still that sentence, does a duke, a great nobleman, a person who should sit in a castle and eat from a golden rice bowl, really know how to forge iron and build a stove? Can the drawings he made by himself really be used?
What should I do if it doesn’t work? Who dares to give an opinion? But to put it bluntly...whose fault is it if something goes wrong?
The old blacksmith took the drawing handed over by Gawain with a rather sad face, and secretly made up his mind: If this stove is too whimsical, then he will never say it out loud, at worst, he will nod in agreement. Then work hard to build a stove that is similar in appearance but completely different inside. If the lord really finds out something is wrong and asks about it, he will say that the illiterate apprentices and slaves are too stupid.Stupid, there is no way to build a new stove properly...
His thought continued until he saw the design drawing with exquisite structure and reasonable layout.
Gawain saw Hammer's reaction completely and smiled.
He is not a blacksmith. To be honest, even in his previous life, he has no experience related to steel smelting or forging. But which keyboard expert who has come from the era of information explosion cannot pull out a lot of Theoretical knowledge?
Of course, a strong keyboard player with only theoretical knowledge is not of use, but it doesn't matter, he still has the memory of Gawain Cecil.
Gawain Cecil is not a blacksmith, but the first Duke of the East is a blacksmith, and the important bragging material when the Duke of the East invites everyone to drink is his knowledge of steel smelting. In addition to their close personal relationship, Gawain Cecil had been dragged to the furnace by the first Duke of the East many times to practice his skills, so he naturally knew what the structure of a qualified furnace should be.
With the combination of the two knowledges, plus the suggestions given by Rebecca and Hetty and the small loss on the hairline, it is still possible to draw a drawing.
However, self-confidence is self-confidence, and Gawain has not reached the level of blind arrogance. He is well aware of the shortcomings of laymen leading insiders, and knows that his identity can easily be faced by the real experts in the territory. I didn't dare to give my opinion when I was on my own, so I took the initiative and said: "I adapted this drawing based on some furnaces from the Gondor period. It may not be suitable for the actual situation. It just gives you an idea on how to make this furnace run. , that's your business - you can modify it as you like, as long as it meets my requirements."
"No, no, no, this design is already very reasonable," Hammer said hurriedly. Said, "There is no shortage of structures that a furnace should have, and they are all well connected, and this idea of continuous smelting... As long as the ore is continuously put in and the slag is cleaned out, can it keep burning? ?”
“Yes, it is continuous,” Gawain nodded, “But in this case, the usual working method of a blacksmith with several apprentices working around a furnace will probably be different. Isn’t it suitable?”
Hammer obviously had not thought of this before. He was still immersed in the wonderful idea of the new furnace. At this time, when Gowen reminded him, he suddenly realized that such an extremely efficient What does it mean to have a stove that's high and doesn't need to be turned off.
As if it was some kind of professional intuition, he realized that there was a deep gap between the tinkling blacksmith shop in the past and the furnace in front of him.
When he thought of the large yard that was hundreds of meters long and wide and could house dozens of furnaces, he looked at Gawain with wide eyes: "Master..."
" Steel, steel is the basis of everything - of course there are all kinds of other weird metals included here," Gawain said as he took out another thing from his arms and gave it to Hammer, "I'm asking. Passed, you are literate, so you should do these thingsCan you understand it? ”
Blacksmiths are the upper class of civilians. Although they are still civilians, they hold hammers in their hands and have roughly the same status as those family warriors and even trainee knights who hold long swords and riding whips. In addition, several generations of the Hammer family have been responsible for smelting steel and forging weapons for the Cecil family, and their status is even more extraordinary. Therefore, Hammer is literate and numeral - his father is quite enlightened in this regard. .
After taking the paper handed over by Gawain, Hammer just scanned it briefly and his eyes widened in surprise.
“Is this still a blacksmith shop? ? "
"No, this is Cecil Steel Works," Gawain looked into the old blacksmith's eyes, "I want a large amount of steel, which will even exceed the total amount of steel you have seen in your life. The new furnace and Magic Network No. 1 are just the foundation of the foundation, and these things require a matching, new production structure to support them. ”
This is the transformation from a workshop to a factory. Even Gawain himself doesn’t know what effect this rigid, top-down reorganization will have, but he really can’t wait any longer.
He cannot wait for this society to slowly develop to the beginning of capital and the industrial revolution - even if he is willing to wait, the thing in the sky may not be willing to wait.
You. Bian Zheng was immersed in the farming sub-base when a wave of aliens and a wave of demons hit his face at the same time. Can this be played?
The progress of Magic Network No. 1 is so great! He saw the opportunity for the great development of productivity - in other words, the productivity has already reached the point where it can develop greatly, but in this world where magic exists, it is stuck in place. Magic Network No. 1 is the liberation This imprisoned hope.
There is magic in failure, and magic in success.
Hammer fell into thinking, but found that he could not think of anything-this was beyond. With his world view, he, who has been forging iron all his life, could not find his place in steel for the first time: "Master, if you really follow your plan, how many blacksmiths will it take to use so many steel furnaces? ? I am the only blacksmith in the territory now..."
"Smelting ore and steel processing will be separated sooner or later and become two parts. I have follow-up arrangements for these," Gawain looked at Hammer He glanced at me and said, "After seeing the design drawings of the new furnace, you should know that I am not just doing it on a whim. ”
Hammer really had such a dangerous idea in his mind just now, but Gawain’s reminder reminded him of the bold and reasonable furnace design.
After a few seconds of silence, Gawain spoke deliberately and unhurriedly: "You think I am a stupid nobleman who is full of naive ideas and all kinds of fantastic ideas, but has no understanding of reality at all. What? "
Hammer suddenly broke into a cold sweat: "No, no, how could you be..."
"It is normal for you to have such thoughts, because I see this More than ninety percent of the timesThe other nobles on the throne also made the same comment." Gawain laughed. "Living in the castle, he is aloof, luxurious and naive. He doesn't understand how grain grows, and he doesn't know how to blacksmith, build houses, or cut wood. But... You also like to give random orders that are impossible to implement, right? ”
Hammer stared at Gawain dumbfounded. He held it in for a long time but did not say the word “friend”.
The Duke of seven hundred years ago commented How can you be so insightful when talking about nobles?
"You must be curious about why I am so insightful in my evaluation of them. It's simple - I am Gawain Cecil, and I lived in this land seven hundred years ago. When it was still deserted, I led people to open up wasteland here." Gawain looked into Hammer's eyes, "We didn't live in the castle at that time. When it comes to work, there are many craftsmen in this territory. I'm afraid they are no match for me. "
Hammer's expression changed slightly, and he nodded slowly.
Gawain put his hand on the old blacksmith's shoulder: "So do as I say. Do it, the first step is to complete the construction of the new furnace. "
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Betty trotting over.
"Master! "The little maid still took a few hard breaths first, and then bent down awkwardly and exaggeratedly, "Miss Amber is back! And with one... one..."
Betty thought hard and said loudly: "A dirty old man! ”
