Lord of Rot
Chapter 125 Hydraulic Forging Hammer (Page 12)
Li Qi took everything in sight.
Including news that Crowe may be targeted.
However, the farmer had not yet returned with the message on foot, so he had to rely on Crowe to improvise. However, he believed that Crowe should have felt the danger.
The sway of the horse under his crotch brought Li Qi back to his senses.
He went to the stables early this morning. The belly of the female fierce mane horse was getting bigger and bigger. According to what the groom said, the mare would give birth to a griffin child in just a few months. As for the magical creature, The Hippogriff is still a freak, so we will only know when it gives birth.
The horse stopped in front of a building lot in the business district.
The road has not been paved here yet, only a three-way intersection that was roughly divided and simply paved after the weeds were cleared.
There is also a sign indicating the direction of each road.
One end points to the castle, one end is the commercial district, and the other end is Wheatfield Village.
Teams of slaves walked through here. Some of them were responsible for carrying red bricks, and some were responsible for mixing mud, piling lime powder, sea sand, mud and water together, and then pouring some plant ash and slag to make the bonding stronger.
The house-building skills of masons are not much different from those on earth. With red bricks, the speed of building houses is like weeds growing, almost one shape per day.
Following Li Qi is Grant's apprentice, Little Green Eyes. He has a pair of green eyes inherited from his father, whose name is Old Green Eyes.
After the population increased, Grant proposed to Li Qi that he could no longer select apprentices and teenagers from slaves, but only from civilians. Li Qi nodded in agreement.
The nobles are the rulers of the Lurea continent, the undisputed upper class.
The lower class are civilians. They can become craftsmen, merchants, or soldiers to make achievements. They have free status and can go to any territory to start a new life.
Slaves are at the bottom.
Among them, the situation of serfs is better. Most of the subjects of many lords are serfs. The serfs are mainly responsible for farming and handing most of the food to the lords, leaving a little for themselves.
Slaves, even their lives, belonged to the lord, and there was no reward for all their work.
Putting the children of commoners and slaves together would cause great dissatisfaction among the commoners.
Little Green Leaf is the son of a common man. Although his arithmetic ability is average, he has a sharp eye and is very suitable for a job like a secretary.
As a lord, it would look more stylish if someone was holding a small notebook to record his words while he was speaking.
Li Qi also really needs a secretary to help him remind him of his daily schedule and record things that suddenly occur to him.
It is impossible for his brain to follow the planning process. Most of the time he sees something and suddenly realizes that he seems to be a little behind in this aspect, and then his thoughts spread out, and he thinks that there is a better way to deal with it on the earth in his mind.
The idea is only one aspect. Whether the Porcupine Collar is qualified and has the technology to reproduce it is also a question, so many times the idea will only be sealed.
The little secretary had only been following Li Qi for a few days, but he was already completely shocked by Li Qi's endless ideas.
There is absolutely no second person in this world who is wiser than the lord of his own family. Is it really the Four Gods who gave him such wisdom? Why have the four gods never given this wisdom to others for countless years, and now they are all giving it to their own lords?
But if it wasn't given by the Four Gods, why would the lord of his family know so much?
There were some parts in the record that the little secretary could vaguely guess about their functions, such as vehicles that could be ridden without horses, and horse-drawn plows that liberated manpower, but there were many things that he couldn't understand at all, some of which were called " "Hot air balloon", as well as "airplane", as well as "submarine", "internal combustion engine", "steam engine", "land mine", etc. Most of them just recorded a name, and there is no future. Even the lord did not explain it. What exactly are they.
Just looking at the names, the little secretary had no idea what these were.
He guessed that the names were all given by the lord himself, but he did not think that they were just made up randomly. Just like the water mill, no one had thought that grinding flour could be so simple before.
After making sure there weren't too many problems here, Li Qi rode to the blacksmith shop.
Black Ear has now been completely reduced to a tool maker for making farm tools, because he really doesn't know how to make weapons, and Li Qi is not willing to let him waste materials.
Fortunately, Black Ear is already used to this kind of life. What's wrong with building farm tools? As the population of Porcupine Collar increases, the farm equipment work is enough for him to eat and drink. Black Ear will go to the pub after get off work every day. have a drink.
Black Ear has given up hope of becoming a master blacksmith.
After receiving the news from Li Qi, the blacksmiths from Lintawan started hammering, making armor, and weapons.
No matter where you are, blacksmithing is a profession worthy of respect from the lords. War is inseparable from weapons and armor, which are the arteries of war.
They are arrogant enough, and they have reasons to be arrogant.
Although they did not dare to forget their identities when facing the lord, their posture was much higher than that of ordinary civilians.
Li Qi was led by a blacksmith into the blacksmith's shop. The weather outside was already very hot. When he walked into the blacksmith's shop, he mistakenly thought he had stepped into a brick kiln.
The hot air rushed towards my face, and my skin was heated by the hot wind.
Li Qi looked at the long sword that was made on the table, picked it up and waved it twice.
This kind of sword is called a hybrid sword on earth. The sword body is more slender than the two-handed sword used by the porcupine collar. There is a blood groove on the sword body to adjust the weight. It is lighter and suitable for wielding with one hand. It can also be used with two hands. Of course, there are also disadvantages, that is, the sword is thinner and easier to break than a two-handed sword.
The hybrid sword that has a specific image in Li Qi's memory and is quite famous is the enemy sword used by Gandalf in "The Lord of the Rings", although that sword may be a bit longer.
The sword used by the Porcupine Collar is a heavy two-handed sword, which is related to the fighting style of Baron Porcupine. He wears the thickest armor, uses the heaviest sword, and fights the hardest battles.
There is no edge on the sword near the hilt, about two fingers long, making it easier to hold with both hands.
With a blocking hook, people who don't understand would think it is two sword grids.
The hybrid sword made by the blacksmith was very mature, and Li Qi put it back on the table with great satisfaction.
It shows that these blacksmiths have extraordinary skills. Even if they are not legendary craftsmen, they are still experts in making weapons.
He walked towards one of the blacksmiths who was bare-chested and wearing only a simple leather apron. He was hammering on a heavy iron plate.
It can be seen that the opponent has tried his best, and sparks will fly with every hammer blow.
Blacksmithing is very hard, and requires strenuous physical work in a high-temperature environment, especially in the hot summer. Li Qi is a little unbearable just standing here. Looking at the blacksmith, his skin has turned dark red, and his hair has become thick. There was a layer of oily sweat.
The hot red iron slowly deformed under the hammer. When the red light disappeared, the blacksmith threw it back into the furnace, then turned to look at Li Qi: "Sir!"
Li Qi nodded gently and asked: "If there is someone who can help you pound the iron without stopping, without having to do the initial pounding work, can the speed be faster?"
