The Wizard’s Fairy Tale
Chapter 41 Fat Meat
In addition to Adams, Smith, and Collis, there are two other families in the small village of Nisse who are not optimistic about William and choose to leave with West Knight.
These two families are considered middle class in the village, otherwise they would not be able to afford the protection fee of Patras, which has increased in price.
For these guys who don't have any special skills, William easily let them go.
Only one, not a single grain of rye.
William compelled his own piskins to buy grain from their fields.
Knight West knew what William meant, but after all he didn't dare to quarrel too much with William. In addition, William didn't suppress the price, but bought their grain at the standard purchase price, so Knight West pondered over and over again, and did not express any objection .
As for the opinions of Adams and others, they cannot enter the eyes of the superiors when they are of no use value.
No one cared what they thought. Naturally, all the food was bought by William.
For this, William paid 85 piss.
Although they got a lot of Pisces, Adams and the others didn't feel happy at all, their expressions were like dead parents, they fidgeted behind the cloudy-faced West Knight and the others, and returned to Patras. city.
At the gate of the city of Patras, after 50 of the 85 pis gold coins that Adams and the others had not warmed up were confiscated and 50 of them were taken away, Knight West ignored them completely and went to the Viscount Grian. New Weir Castle.
The Adams family was left standing there in a daze.
In Newville Castle, in the living room, in the fireplace with silver and white borders, flames were burning fiercely.
Wearing a dark red graceful leather jacket, Viscount Grian stood in front of an oil painting with his back to Knight West.
In the oil painting is an old man with silver-white hair. The age spots on his face cannot hide his sharp eagle-like eyes and wolf-like greedy eyes.
After a long time, Viscount Grian said plainly, Failed?
There was no joy or anger in the voice.
Yes, Lord Viscount. Only a few villagers are willing to leave with us, and the rest of the villagers chose to stay! Knight West was very respectful, and he was not arrogant in front of William at all.
Knowing how to advance and retreat is the reason why he was appreciated by Viscount Grian.
Oh, interesting, how did he do it? Viscount Grian still didn't turn around.
He seems to have persuaded Gretel... West Knight thought for a while, not very sure.
Gretel the messenger? That Andrew?
Andrew's father, Old Gretel, people in the village listen to him more.
I underestimated him, Baron Dikas, you surprised me. Viscount Grian said with a chuckle.
Knight West paused and asked, Master Viscount, what are we going to do now?
How many villagers come to Patras? Viscount Grian asked.
Yes.
How much food did they bring?
Not a single grain! Knight West said, Baron Dikas didn't let a grain of rye flow out of the village, and he bought all the grain with gold piss.
Viscount Grian was silent, his eyes flashed with unknown meaning, and after a while, he sighed, It seems that our Baron Dikas is determined to spend the winter in the small village of Nise!
Knight West also nodded and said, He dug a lot of soil and stones in the village, and he seems to be building a wall!
Building a wall? Viscount Grian sneered, sarcastically, A real high wall needs several years of hard work by the nobles, investing countless manpower and those lovely Pisgold coins, but what does our Baron Dickas have? Hundreds of untouchables, or two months? Hahaha...
So, Knight West understood, Master Viscount, shall we just watch?
No,
How could a nobleman do such a thing? Viscount Grian refused unexpectedly.
I believe that in the city of Patras, the news about the small village of Nisai will soon spread. This will damage the reputation of the Grian family. West, I heard that in the Cordillera In the mountains, there are some wild people...
Yes, Lord Viscount! You are always so wise.
The small village of Nise is like a granary filled with a lot of grain, isn't it? Viscount Grian asked.
Yes, Lord Viscount, and they don't have the strength to protect themselves yet. Knight West knew the elegance when he heard the string song.
That's really dangerous. They are like a big piece of fat now. There are many big bad wolves in the wilderness... Viscount Grian suddenly said worried.
Knight West thought for a while before saying, Master Viscount, I need some time to find the big bad wolf in the wilderness!
Hurry up! I want to wait too long! Viscount Grian turned around to appreciate the oil painting again.
The owner of the oil painting is the founder of the Green family, and a motto he left to future generations is this: The Green family has no enemies!
Yes, you won't be disappointed! Knight West nodded heavily, and then retreated.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… ………
After West Cavaliers and the others left, William released new tasks non-stop.
After all, time waits for no one!
The small village of Nisai has turned into the bustling scene before.
It even got busier!
Men and women, old and young, join the battle!
Some were still sent to dig soil and transport limestone, while others had new tasks.
First up is brick making!
The clay is manually crushed, sieved, and kneaded with water to form a fine thick mud. The thick mud is poured into a mold made by two carpenters in the village, then compacted, and the excess mud is scraped off to form an adobe.
Just this step takes up a lot of labor.
Eighty or ninety people work continuously, some are in charge of crushing, some are in charge of mixing mud, and some are in charge of making bricks, which can produce 60 bricks per minute.
Working in three shifts in two days, day and night, 60,000 bricks were produced.
These 60,000 bricks were piled up and chopped into more than a dozen walls with different heights.
Originally, it would take a month or two for the adobe to dry in the shade, but William obviously couldn't wait for such a long time.
The wheat stalks in the field are used as waste, and after being picked, they are placed on both sides of the adobe wall to bake, and the moisture in the adobe is dried by the power of the flame.
The flame burned all night, and the fire illuminated the whole small village of Nisai.
On the second day, William had more than 50,000 instant bricks, some of which had cracks due to various reasons and had to be smashed and remade.
After having instant bricks, William began to direct the villagers to build brick kilns.
On Adams Field!
First, a cube was built with bricks, and the outer layer was sealed with soil except for a few holes for ventilation.
In the brick kiln, the instant bricks are stacked in a way that is easy to ventilate and heat, and firewood is stuffed in the middle.
Leave a few holes in the lower face for fuel filling.
When everything is ready, the brick kiln starts to ignite and burn bricks.
And such a brick kiln, William had ten of them built!
Ten brick kilns stood on the Adams field, and the black smoke, like the breath of the devil, spiraled in the air and was finally blown away by the wind.
The firing of bricks takes more than half a month.
At this time, there is no need to rush to make instant bricks.
The finished bricks are stacked to form walls, waiting to dry naturally!
Even if there are a large number of fired bricks, it is not enough!
Between bricks and bricks, an adhesive is needed to allow them to be closely combined and use the strength of unity to resist wind and rain.
