Lord Helanza

In the past two days, the old village chief has built a simple thatched pergola on the north side of the village’s central square. The women in the village began to move all the carriage wheels into the pergola.

The old village chief stood in the middle of the square, standing with Surdak, pointing to the pergola on the north side, and said: "I thought about it last night, and I am going to set up a carpenter's workshop in the village, where there are carpenters. Craftsmanship villagers can enter the carpenter’s workshop to build this pergola. It was originally intended to store the wheat flour purchased back, but now it seems that it’s not bad that it becomes a carpenter’s workshop."

These carriage wheels are used. It is a bearing bush, which is coated with dense lubricating oil. As long as it is lightly moved by hand, the carriage wheel can rotate easily and freely.

The axles are forged from black iron, but the wheels are made of wood. A round plank is nailed with wooden slats to increase the strength. This kind of ordinary wheels are easily damaged in rough roads. , Need carpenter workshop to repair.

The old village chief held the carriage wheel with his hand and confidently said to Surdak: "We will build these twenty cargo carriages first, and then we can build a large water tanker here. Although carpenters in the village have ordinary skills, they are all good children who are willing to endure hardships and are willing to learn. It is worth working hard to train them."

There are indeed a few good carpenters in Wall Village, but they are still in Pustule Mountain. To dig sulfur mines, the old village chief has sent someone to give them a message, and it is estimated that they will be able to return to the village of Wall within a few days.

Surdak looked at the wood piled in the pergola and asked the old village head: "When the main dam of the reservoir is built, some wooden boards are needed to pour the volcanic ash cement. Since we want to set up a carpenter’s workshop, we still need to buy more wood back. Do you know where there is a wood factory nearby?"

The old village head was shocked, probably according to his idea, in the pergola The wood is enough to make truck carriages, and I don’t understand why more wood boards are used when building the main dam of Xu Sui Chuan.

At this time, a caravan leader standing by took the opportunity to interject: "Surdak Knight, it is said that Lloyd Baron is the most famous woodland owner in Helanza. He has at least five Timber factory, you can buy some wood from Lloyd Baron. If you don’t want to come out in person, our caravan is willing to buy it for you, and we will charge only a little pitiful shipping fee."

After hearing this, Surdak was a little moved, and just wanted to talk to the caravan leader, but when he saw the old village chief winking at him quietly, it was obvious that there was something inconvenient to say, so he immediately thought about it and groaned. After a while, he said: "I will think about this..."

The leader of the caravan saw that Surdak didn't pick up this topic, so he didn't say more.

When the caravan leader walked away, the old village head whispered to Surdak, “You don’t need to buy wood. There are many public forests on the mountain pass. Just look for two pine trees in it. , You don't need to spend any money at all."

"Didn't it mean that trees are not allowed to be felled in the forests over there?" Surdak asked strangely.

"There are more things that you are not allowed to do. As long as you don't really touch the interests of the lords, who cares, it's not the golden oak tree." The old village chief laughed.

At this time, the village woman who was transporting the carriage wheels to the pergola went to the old village chief, and said distressedly: "Bright uncle, the warehouse is almost out of stock, what should I do if there are so many bags of wheat... "

"These wheat flours are stored on the side of the construction site first..." The old village chief looked at the sky halfway through the discussion, he hesitated, and then gritted his teeth and said, "Forget it. Maybe it will rain in the past few days recently, so store these wheat in my house."

More than two hundred bags of wheat flour can almost completely fill the old village chief’s house.

As everyone went to the old village chief’s house to unload the wheat flour, they saw a horse team walking on the mountain road from a distance. They didn’t need to look at the faces of the youngsters who led the horses, but the sharp-eyed villagers screamed. Roared: "Our horse team is back..."

……

This time the village horse team came back from the Yaobaoshan sulfur mine, except for bringing back a full twenty pockets of sulfur mine. , And brought back a bad news.

Two new neighbors emerged from the sulfur mine in the rocky area. There were actually two young salamanders. I don’t know where they came from. They occupy a corner of the rocky area, although There is no hostility to the miners in the rocky area, but the daily mining work has been severely hindered. Everyone dared not approach the two salamanders at all, but dared to hide from a distance.

But there are that many stalagmites with sulfur mines in the chaotic rock area. After being occupied by the salamanders, the area left by the stonemasons is very pitiful. This time Luke personally rushed over and just ran back to ask Surdak, even if the two salamanders cannot be hunted down, at least they have to be driven away.

Moreover, they swallow a lot of sulfur ore every day in the sulfur mines in the chaotic area. This is the most terrible thing.

Seeing that there are enough supplies on the reservoir construction site on this side of the village, the next step is to build the foundation of the reservoir according to the plan. The old village chief can fully handle it here.

There is no more urgent matter for Surdak to solve, so Surdak decided to set off to take a look at the sulphur mine in Impulse Mountain. In addition to expelling the two salamanders, he also has to give Impulse Mountain. The masons sent some long-tube thick-soled leather boots, dust masks, cross mine picks, water-gathering scrolls and other supplies.

When all these sulfur mines were moved into the warehouse, Surdak was ready to set off.

Luke just sat in the shade of the tree and took a sip of the cool water, then mounted his horse again, and set off with Surdak back to the sulfur mines of Mount Baobao.

Along the way, you can still see a long line of laborers, walking quickly to the depths of Paglos Mountain. They have to walk to places with volcanic ash, which are far away from the village of Wall. , It takes at least a day to walk back and forth. Even so, the volcanic ash in that area is very thin, but a thin layer is spread on the ground. When you reach that side, you need to sweep the volcanic ash on the ground with a scorpion. Put it in a linen pocket.

If there is this horse team to help transport some volcanic ash, it can also solve some of the problem of insufficient capacity, but this horse team currently needs to go back and forth between the sulfur mine and the village of Vol. Busy.

When passing through the Beigou pasture, the "thirst" growing here has been completely withered, only the weeds near the edge of the pool still have some greenery, but you can see the huge pool At the end of the rainy season, there is no new rain to add in. The water level here drops at a rate visible to naked eye. By next spring, it will probably dry up completely.

Surdak only stayed in Beigou Pasture for a while, and then took the group of youngsters on horseback to the sulfur mine.
