This is a very simple-looking slate room with no excessive decoration. If it has any characteristics, it is probably large enough, covering more than 400 square meters. It does not look like it is for one person to live in.
.
Moreover, there was very little furniture inside, including a rectangular stone table with stone cups and plates placed on the table, four stone chairs at the front, back, left, and right, and a large stone bed and stone cabinet in the corner.
I have to say, the style of this house is really tough!
"The wall is the load-bearing component and enclosure component of the building. As a load-bearing component, the wall bears the load from the roof and floor of the building, and transfers these loads to the foundation..."
Sentences with a sharp voice were read out loud from the mouth of the only man in the room.
I saw this man with long wavy purple hair sitting in front of the stone table, wearing only a set of golden cross-faced armor.
Its coverage area is extremely small, giving people an almost naked sense of sight.
But that huge figure, nearly four meters tall even when seated, and a body of muscles that were a bit stronger than beef tendons, gave people a strong sense of intimidation.
It's just that...with such a burly body and appearance, his voice when reading was much higher pitched than that of a woman, and a strong sense of dissonance immediately hit his face.
Looking at the stone table in front of him, there are more than a dozen thick books and various drawings and materials stacked on top of each other.
"Architectural Composition", "Architectural Art", "Building Materials", "Architectural Design", etc. are basically all titles related to architecture.
The cover of the book he was reading had the words "Building Structure - Middle" printed on the cover.
[Dong dong dong]
Just as the man was looking at the writing intently and reading the content carefully, a knock on the door interrupted the sound of reading.
"Mr. Pika, the materials for the first part have been received!"
Seeing that the person coming was Director Lu Si'en, Pika had no choice but to pick up the long stone tablet at hand and clip it on the page, and then gently closed this interesting book.
In fact, when he was sent to the World Government by Doflamingo at first to cooperate with the Construction Department in the construction project, he was not very happy.
Because Pika felt that he should be a fierce warrior, but because he could not refuse the young master's personal order, he came over without saying anything.
It sounds like he is asked to help build a house. With his devil fruit ability, it will be easy. He can just finish the work and go back as soon as possible!
But when I finally arrived at the construction site, I found that things were not that simple.
He still remembers it very clearly. It was in the Dongdao area numbered RL0003. The construction department asked him to use the prepared stones and try to build a stone building according to the design drawings they gave him.
.
The question is, how can I understand the drawings?
I just memorized the basic outline and the general distribution of the rooms inside, and then blended it into the mountains of stones without saying a word, and used the superman's stone fruit ability to merge them into one.
Soon, a stone building that was basically consistent with the shape on the design drawings rose from the ground under everyone's surprised eyes.
At that time, he felt a little proud.
But something happened that puzzled him next. As he separated from it, the stone building collapsed behind him, causing all the cheers to stop abruptly.
later.
After many experiments, the architects of the Construction Department discovered the problem. It turned out that the buildings they created only looked similar in appearance, but the detailed structure inside was a mess.
When he was inside the building, there seemed to be no problem because he had the power of the Devil Fruit to maintain overall stability.
But after the ability control is released, the stone building becomes an ordinary creation, and everything must abide by the basic physical rules.
Pika was shocked.
In the past, he only used the power of the Stone Fruit to fight and naturally didn't care about what would happen afterwards, but it's different now.
Since then, at the request of the Construction Department, he has begun to enrich his architectural knowledge. He is not required to be very professional, but he must at least be able to understand design drawings.
At the same time, while learning theory, he continued to build various small buildings under the guidance of architects. In the process, they would constantly point out problems, which increased Pika's architectural experience.
Anyway, with the ability of the Stone Stone Fruit, there is no problem of taking too long or wasting stones, and it can be reconstructed repeatedly.
At the very beginning.
Pika was very reluctant, but a strange thing happened. As the time passed by and she came into contact with architectural knowledge, she discovered that it was actually not difficult to understand.
This made him feel the joy of harvest, and the more he watched, the happier and more fascinated he became. Especially when he combined the theory he learned with practice and witnessed with his own eyes the good enough effects, he became even more excited.
I fell in love with architecture inexplicably, and I fell in love with building various stone buildings, stone houses, and stone bridges. I just had the feeling that I could build everything...
correct.
It is worth mentioning that in addition to being a senior cadre of the Don Quixote family, Pica now has a new identity, that is, a senior architect in the Construction Department under the World Government's Administrative Department.
Although he can only be regarded as an apprentice in architecture, Shi Shiguo's architectural abilities are not comparable to those of architects.
In other words, in terms of knowledge, as long as Pika is given enough time, he can catch up with other architects, but where can the architects get the second Stone Fruit?
"Let's go."
Pika stood up and followed the director of the Construction Department out of his stone house. When he came out, his vision suddenly opened up. He could see hundreds of construction machinery of various types working nervously on the construction site of Nuo Da.
The roar of excavators, bulldozers, and heavy trucks rushed towards us.
Especially the scenes of billowing smoke caused by heavy trucks passing by and the activities of thousands of workers in uniforms, which express the word "hot" to the fullest.
This is area RL0001 of the Red Earth Continent.
Originally, this place was densely bushed and full of greenery, but now all the vegetation and trees have been bulldozed by the mighty engineering team, exposing the brightest red land.
And the project they are going to build now is called the New World Government Headquarters.
The mission is to enable the upcoming highest government meeting to be held in this brand new place!
Although Pika exists, it does not mean that the entire construction project does not need others. He is only the main body responsible for the overall construction.
Of course, this alone has saved the Construction Department an unknown amount of time, labor, materials and funds. No matter how it is built, he will be the first contributor.
"Mr. Pika, this is the design drawing of the New World Government Headquarters. We want to build the first part of this place first. Take a look..."
An architect came over with a video phone bug, and soon, a virtual screen was projected into the air in front of Pika's eyes, but it was a little confusing at first sight.
"Isn't this the emblem of the World Government?"
His sharp voice sounded full of doubts, but everyone present had long been accustomed to this dissonant voice.
The key is that no one dared to laugh out loud. A few people who laughed out loud were beaten to death by Pika and were seriously injured. They are still lying in the hospital.
Looking at the picture that appears in the sky, doesn't it look like five white circles connected by a cross?
"This is a bird's-eye view, take a look again."
As the architect cut out another design drawing, Pika was surprised to find that the white circle, when viewed from above, turned out to be a huge circular high-rise building, and the cross was actually erected in the middle of the floor.
sky corridor.
Five circular buildings, four sky corridors, surrounded by woods, flower gardens, lakes and ten tennis courts are the headquarters of the New World Government.
"What we are going to build now is this first office building, please do it!"
"I understand, let's try it first..."
Pika nodded, moved his well-dressed body, and walked towards the construction site in the distance where workers had laid the foundation and piled stones inside.
I have to say that he feels that he has found a new direction in life here. He has asked himself many times before which one he prefers over fighting.
It's actually hard for him to give an answer, because he doesn't hate fighting, otherwise he wouldn't be able to develop such steel-like muscles.
