David didn't respond specifically to Penny's enthusiasm, but just chatted politely for a few words. The blonde girl also realized that David was 'not interested' in her.
However, her personality is relatively carefree, and her nature is not bad. She didn't care too much about being 'rejected'. She just took advantage of the situation and said, 'I originally thought you were like Leonard and the others in the games they played, a talented person.
The old man with a gray beard changed the subject.
After a brief chat, the two parties became acquainted. Leonard secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that David did not attack Penny. At the same time, he introduced several other friends to David: "This is Howard Walloway
"
"Hello, just call me Howard." Howard stretched out his hand to shake David's hand, and at the same time introduced David to Rajesh Kusapally, who couldn't speak in front of women: "This is Raj
- Kusapali, he is unable to speak in the presence of a woman. Considering the current situation, you can just treat him as mute."
"..." Raj glared at his friend, then smiled and shook hands with David, then pulled Howard aside and continued to express his dissatisfaction with his hands.
"Oh? What did you say? Sorry, I couldn't hear anything..." Although Howard kept complaining about Raj, he did not break away from each other. The two just walked aside and continued the previous conversation mode.
"The two of them..."
"Yes, we sometimes have such suspicions." Leonard looked at the two people and said he was used to this scene: "And this is my roommate Sheldon Cooper who rents an apartment with me.
Dun! Stop pestering Fording with questions! I don’t need you to educate him on what the Holy Light is!”
After shouting hello to Sheldon Cooper, the tall and thin man who kept talking around Fording, although his face was full of reluctance, he still walked up to David.
In fact, if he hadn't met Fording, Sheldon would have been very curious about David, the village chief of Winter Village. He wondered why this place could gather people from all different worlds. As the village chief,
What is so extraordinary about David?
"Leave it to me. In fact, Peggy has already told me." Laura looked at the list, which detailed the minimum number of sets of quilts to buy first, how many sets are needed in the future, and the priorities of various supplies.
: "Speaking of which, don't you need to buy a batch of building materials?"
"If the city develops, the demand for various raw materials will become greater and greater. You can't always rely on you to carry it from home." David has already had this idea. In the past, the village was not big and the population was not large, so the demand was huge.
At that point, transporting Laura is not a hassle.
"It's not clear yet." David said that he would have to wait until Van Cleef inspects the surrounding environment of Winter Village before he can decide what to buy: "It may be necessary for Edwin to find out what resources are available around Winter Village.
Only when something is missing can you know which building materials to buy.”
After looking up and down, Sheldon greeted David politely: "Hello, I am Dr. Sheldon Cooper."
"My... castle?" David was confused as he listened to Van Cleef's description of the future plan. Even the hand that was writing stopped: "When did I say I was going to build a castle?"
Then there are radiators and other living facilities. In order to ensure that Winter Village, which has a population of several hundred, will not suffer from injuries or casualties this winter, Laura also purchased a large amount of medicine and coal.
Will doesn't think there is anything wrong with this. Only when he is busy will he appear important. During these days, his main task is to study. Learn new languages and learn new forging knowledge, but after he has learned it, he has no place to put it to use.
, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
Afterwards, he began his own field investigation. He estimated that he would spend one to two months inspecting the surrounding area of Winter Village to learn about the area's geology, types of mineral deposits, where there are a large number of high-quality stones and other resources, and their various
Only when all these situations are clearly understood can we begin to consider how to design a new city.
After another mutual introduction, the reactions of several of Leonard's friends when they met Will Turner were amazing, especially Penny and Raj. On the contrary, Sheldon acted very calmly. It seemed that he
I don’t have any special impressions of the little blacksmith.
But when facing David, he put the skills he didn't usually use in the skill column again: "In addition, I also assure you that your decision is very correct... I heard that the village chief is considering using Lin
Winter Village was built into Winter Town, and I have some thoughts about this...Oh~ Leonard, didn't you see that I was discussing important things with Village Chief David?"
No matter what, about four hundred craftsmen, miners and their families joined Winter Village. After Van Cleef introduced David to everyone, he also took the initiative to 'resign' as the leader and took off the red mask from his neck on the spot.
Burning it down, declaring the Brotherhood, and the Masons' Union have become a thing of the past. From now on, everyone will be a villager in Winter Village.
This demographic structure is very unreasonable, but there is a reason: the senior craftsmen trust Van Cleef, and they are on the wanted list of the Kingdom of Stormwind. There is no way to go back and continue to be ordinary people. These people and their families will either follow Van Cleef.
Winter Village, or choose to leave the Kingdom of Stormwind by boat.
In the days that followed, Laura began to frequently travel back and forth to her own world in Winter Village. She gave priority to transporting quilts and bunk beds, followed by various tools that the craftsmen needed to ensure that the craftsmen could start work immediately.
"Thank you very much for inviting us to be your guests. It's my honor." It's not that Sheldon doesn't know how to speak politely to others, it's just that most of the time he doesn't want to do it because he doesn't think it's necessary.
While whispering in a low voice, Leonard pulled Sheldon aside, and the two began to argue fiercely. David watched a similar scene up close that he had seen many times before, and found it very interesting.
In the end, these four hundred people were all humans. When Van Cleef formed the Defias Brotherhood, in order to ensure that the Defias Brotherhood had strong enough 'high-end combat power', he hired tauren, fishmen and other races.
None of the mercenaries brought Winter Village.
When Laura heard what David said, she immediately understood what he was thinking: "Do you want to use the materials available here as much as possible to build a new town?"
"Including your castle, you need to start designing it after that."
It’s no longer possible. A town with a few hundred people is no longer too small, and the demand for various materials is astonishing. If everything goes well, it will continue to expand in the future. Isn’t it all up to Laura to transport bags of cement here?
?
In short, David's next goal is to use "local" resources as much as possible for raw materials. Only some high-end, sophisticated, and irreplaceable things are "introduced" from other worlds.
"Hello, Dr. Cooper." David shook hands with Sheldon. Compared with how Sheldon treated most people in the plot, this one was already very polite to him: "Welcome to Rin."
Winter Village.”
One is that Van Cleef doesn't know what's going on in David's world, and he doesn't know if these non-human races will cause any bad conflicts after they pass; the other reason is that Van Cleef doesn't trust these mercenaries, and he doesn't know what's going on in David's world.
When discussing whether to go to another world to start a new life, he didn't even inform those people.
The weather has gradually turned colder. It's okay for the newly arrived group of craftsmen to deal with it for a day or two, but something will definitely happen if it goes on for a long time.
As for the less than a hundred craftsmen and miners, they were basically young and strong single men. They trusted Van Cleef and had no worries themselves, so Van Cleef wanted to take them to start a new life elsewhere, and these people followed.
.
As a blacksmith, I will become very busy next time.
David explained the current situation to Will. He learned that Winter Village not only had newcomers like Leonard and Eva, but Fording had also successfully recruited hundreds of people. He realized that the next step in Winter Village was
It is about to enter a period of rapid development.
The originally peaceful and peaceful Coldong Village has once again turned into a large construction site, and this time it is much larger than the last time. Coldong Village has a simple layout that can run through the entire village from one main street, and gradually changes to a square layout.
While a group of people were chatting with each other, David took the time to hand Laura the list he had written earlier: "These things need to be bought as soon as possible, especially beds and bedding."
"Huh? Why is it so lively here today?" At this moment, Will, who had not been seen all day, came back from Port Royal and found that the village was more lively than ever before, and there were many people he had never seen before: "Here they come.
So many newcomers?”
Now, with the arrival of a lot of people, just building various tools and maintaining them is enough to keep him busy every day.
Leonard gave David an awkward and apologetic smile, and at the same time poked Sheldon: "I don't think Village Chief David needs to ask for your opinion on how to build his own village."
Fording spent some time and finally brought about 400 former Brotherhood members and some family members to Winter Village. Among these 400 people, there were nearly 100 senior craftsmen, and more than 200 were the family members of these senior craftsmen.
Mainly women and children, and the remaining less than a hundred people are low-level craftsmen and miners.
He just wants Van Cleef to help design a new Winter Town. Why is the castle already out?
"I heard that you are going to apply to upgrade Winter Village to Winter Town. If it goes well, you will get a title. As a lord with a title, isn't it normal to live in a castle?"
"..." David felt that what Edwin Van Cleef said was very reasonable and could not refute it at all: "This... is at best a country lord in a remote area of the kingdom, and he may not necessarily get a title."
Van Cleef looked at David's gleaming eyes: "I will design a castle better than Stormwind Fortress."
