0031 Engineering Poor Three Generations
Primary engineering equipment allowed Augustus to obtain a dwarf earth-turning machine. Even after simplification, it improved the farming level of Baihe Town by more than one level. Augustus did not doubt the value of the advanced engineering scroll at all. Perhaps a steam engine "duang" appeared in front of him.
Because of its amazing value, Augustus decisively gave up Choice 2. He did not expect that the consequences of rejecting the Count were so serious.
"It seems that you should pay more attention to the guy Count Giles. He is afraid he is a tyrant. He just refuses to participate in his daughter's coming-of-age ceremony. It's so dangerous..." Augustus thought to himself.
He didn't know that Count Giles invited the vassals to attend the coming-of-age ceremony, just to make sure that the barons did not rebel. If anyone dared not to go, he would prepare to welcome the anger of Silverlight Castle...
After a moment, August stretched and said, "I'm a little tired, go back to the castle!"
Before leaving, he looked back at Shitoushan and seemed to be feeling better.
Augustus was indeed much sunny. Although it was troublesome to go to Guanghui City, it could not conceal the joy of obtaining the new professional skill "engineering". He wanted to go back to the castle to study "engineering" carefully!
On that day, all the vassals under Earl Giles received letters, without exception, were invited to attend Erin's coming-of-age ceremony.
No one rejected Count Giles because there was no rebellion at all.
Darkness always makes people feel inexplicably uneasy, but night still comes as promised.
The night was shrouded in the bedroom of the Thunder Axe Castle, two maids were lying on the bed in transparent robes. The fabric of Baihe Town could not be spun. It was purchased by Maia Griffin before from Guanghui City. It looked very interesting under the candlelight.
Lying on the bed, the two maids looked at me, and I looked at you, their eyes were full of confusion. From the time they came in, half of the candle was burned out, but the lord kept sitting by the window and looking at the bright moon in the sky, without even moving.
"How to make money..."
Augustus was deeply confused.
There is such confusion because of Augustus' new professional skills, engineering (primary).
Unlike the "mining" skill, "engineering" contains drawings that need to be learned, such as [triggered wood roller], [q54 convenient harvester], [continuous crossbow gun], [u81 convenient logging machine], [rocket boot], [exquisite telescope (with night vision function)], [gunpowder powder], [salt screening machine], etc.
There are a lot of jealous babies. Just collect the materials according to the requirements and activate the drawings. After a moment, you can get the corresponding finished products of the drawings.
Unfortunately, almost all drawings in engineering are red and unusable, and require a lot of gold coins to study. However, the [w76 type convenient earth-turner] is displayed in green, which means it can be made.
"Rocket boots instantly increase the movement speed to 120km-150km/hour, lasting for 6-10 seconds, and automatically complete charging in twenty-four hours... With this thing, you can still take the upper level and take the lead. Two hundred gold coins are still just drawings..."
Augustus looked at the introduction about the Rocket Boots enviously. If the two armies faced each other, the superior combat skills put on the Rocket Boots, and if one rushes to fight, the acceleration time is even enough to return to the camp, I just don’t know if the speed can turn so fast...
But the expensive study costs made Augustus sigh. The cost of drawings is only one aspect. It is not easy to create a pair of rocket boots after learning drawings. The materials include precious metals such as gold and copper. You don’t need to think about it and you will know that it is another huge sum of money.
"Salt sieve the salt sieve, process salt-containing ore, water, coarse salt, extract it into fine salt, and automatically charge it for 24 hours to work continuously for six hours... It's a coincidence that I found a salt mine. If I could directly extract fine salt, I would have a lot of things left in the future. Unfortunately... 300 gold coins, the project is indeed poor for three generations."
"Gunpowder powder, I can do this, one sulfur, two nitrile, three charcoal, sixteen to two to three, it is more mature than this process, but I can't get the raw materials, just this thing sells 100 gold coins, black heart..."
Gunpowder is a necessary artifact for farming, but Augustus is now in a remote countryside, and he can't find any except charcoal, sulfur and saltpeter, and he can't do anything if he wants to do an experiment.
"yawn……"
Augustus stood up and stretched his body, and decided not to think about engineering first. Making money is the top priority, and it is hard to move without money... He looked at the round moon in the sky and felt a little melancholy.
"When will the bright moon come? I asked the blue sky with wine. I don't know what year it will be tonight..."
"Lord, are you chanting the poems written by the bard?" asked the maid sitting on the bed softly.
Augustus was frightened and turned around suddenly, saying, "Who!? Uh..."
He completely forgot to ask Beard to arrange for the maid to sleep. He looked at two creatures called loli and blushed and felt a little embarrassed.
Although the maids in Thunder Axe Castle are not very beautiful, the visual effects displayed are greatly improved with the dual blessing of the environment and clothing.
Augustus coughed to relieve the awkward atmosphere, unbuttoned his clothes and walked to the candle, and said, "No, this is just a poem I wrote casually when I saw the moon, huh..."
The candle was extinguished, and only the hazy moonlight was left in the room. A crow fell quietly on the window frame of the bedroom, his head was tied under his wings, and he secretly watched the movements in the room and listened to the strange sounds.
One night passed, and during the day the next day, Augustus was diligently walking around the territory, searching almost in a carpet style. Except for the temporarily unexploited salt mine and closed iron ore, no third small white dot was found. The road to making money with minerals is temporarily unavailable, unless the iron ore is restarted at a huge risk, but that is obviously OK.
Farming is an indispensable part of all systems. As far as princes and nobles and barons in remote areas, who can not eat? If the food is choked by others, it will be very uncomfortable.
The earth-turning tool is definitely an epoch-making farming tool. If it is well operated, you can make a lot of wealth. Considering that the Earl's caravan collecting iron ore is coming, Augustus decided to prepare the stock as soon as possible.
He did it when he thought about it. Anyway, the cost was low. In order to provide the soldiers with training, he built thirty earth-turning tools. The carpenters were able to make parts with ease. Augustus summoned the people to cut down trees and dry wood. In more than two days, the carpenters once again created fifty sets of earth-turning tools.
Of course, the final assembly process was operated by Augustus alone. He did not teach the core assembly key points to anyone, and it is safer to master the core technology in his own hands.
After three days of busy life, Augustus looked at the earth-turning tools neatly placed in the empty granary and said, "It's up to you to exchange for the grain that fills the granary. No, this is not enough. It's better to have some more surplus."
Augustus thought greedily.
