Chapter 481 The water-powered spinning mill was built
The fantastic restoration scene left the villagers of Amphail stunned. Not to mention the children who couldn't move, even the adults forgot about their work and watched from the wrong side of the long road for a long time.
The halfling escort girl who completed the task was welcomed with the highest standards by her companions in the Happy Hall, who gathered around her and asked about the whole process.
Loren naturally did not mention the embarrassing thing about herself, but exaggeratedly described the entire short fantasy journey. The envy and admiration of her companions greatly satisfied her vanity. The little boring journey on the road suddenly became
Not worth mentioning, I am full of expectations for tomorrow’s delivery work.
If it were not a simple matter, it would not cause much response among escort girls. At most, it would be a relatively unique job.
But if we add in the previous angry rebuke from Gowther's mother, the nature of the whole thing is completely different, and Gavin has to be re-examined as a young man.
Whether they are hiring escort girls for the first time, they are looking for fun, and if they have other tasks, it sounds good - even if they are business travel escort girls, they are not looking for fun in nature.
Doesn't that mean it's the other way that Gao Se's mother said?
If Mr. Gavin could really provide them with a stable job, would they choose that kind of life instead of their current one?
That question caused a large number of Gowther Mama Joy Hall escort girls to lose sleep.
Gavin's unique acting style, as well as the huge resources and capacity he can deploy, make him the focus of attention wherever he goes, making people there unconsciously revolve around him.
That incident caused a particularly big impact in Amphail Village. After all, it was a palm-sized place, and every move was to the east of their sight.
That's fine. When everyone focuses their attention on the surface, no one notices what Gavin really wants to do.
As soon as it got dark, Gavin sent all the construction workers to rest, leaving Dong alone in the hotel.
There is no doubt that he is waiting for the arrival of the weeping witch Filancini.
But until the sun rose the next day, the crying witch was not seen again.
She didn't know that she didn't want to show up in front of Gavin again. The exchange last morning had consumed her too much strength, and now she couldn't even make a sound.
Gavin believed that the latter was more feasible. Avoidance would not solve any problem, only communication would do, whether it was angry or kind.
After waiting for three mornings with no response, Gavin decided not to wait any longer.
He didn't have that much time to waste there, so he let the increasingly large construction team go all out to clean out all the collapsed parts and find the door leading to the Didong storage room.
In this kind of building, it is inevitable to have a large basement, which can be used as a storage room, an emergency room, and a treasure room.
The treasure that the villagers guessed was the former tavern was there.
Because that area often becomes the focus of battles, the surrounding stairs and walls have all been blown down by explosion spells, making cleaning and repair work particularly difficult.
After all, it is not as simple as removing all the bricks and stones, but they need to compare them bit by bit, find the original position, and restore them as much as possible.
Gavin no longer squatted there and watched that kind of complicated work, but returned to Misnoel and went to Darauma - the water-powered spinning workshop jointly built by the two parties began to put into production, and his instigator
, was invited to visit and inspect.
As soon as you enter Darauma, you can clearly feel the difference between the atmosphere there and before the War of Destruction of the Root of Gods.
The main tone of the entire city has turned to bright red, and the red knight logo belonging to the lady of strategy can be seen everywhere. A large temple has broken ground. You don't need to ask whether it will be an exclusive temple dedicated to the goddess of strategy. Citizens.
They keep their mouths shut, and those who mention themselves and get rid of the most can plot against the lady.
The goddess of strategy has become Darauma's main faith, and the identity of Zalanda, the chosen goddess, has been revealed as a secret.
That thing has pros and cons.
Is it beneficial or not? Zalanda's reputation in Darauma has reached an unprecedented height. After all, whether she is now acting as a god to govern this place, many followers of Ms. Strategy, from all walks of life, will inevitably fall in love with her.
It is not necessary to come directly to Darauma to seek refuge. They are also playing a role in other territories. The economic blockade imposed by the Tethyr warlords and nobles on Darauma is no longer as airtight as it was at the beginning, and it is slowly beginning to loosen.
.
The disadvantage is that the warlords and aristocrats have become more defensive about her. They no longer want to impose a simple economic blockade, but unconsciously move their troops in the direction of Darauma. If they have to, they will not hesitate to tear up the contract.
, also praying to destroy Darauma - As for the anger of Ms. Strategy, there is more than one god in that land.
Especially since Zalanda, as her chosen one, was breaking the contract in disguise, they couldn't just be beaten passively.
Gavin is now in Darauma, and he is considered a celebrity. He can go directly to Zalanda without any hindrance by swiping his face.
"How's the matter with the Arcanist?" Zalanda couldn't help but care about Gavin's advancement when they met.
"We already have an idea, and the rest will just be a waste of time." Gavin said, "How are my preparations for the immigration work going?"
Compared to the water-powered spinning mill, Gavin was more worried about the incident, because it was the key to launching the comprehensive construction of the Three Rivers Land.
Without the key, he was guarding a mountain of treasure with no way to dig out it.
It does not mean that there is no natural migration in the Land of Three Rivers, but the speed is too slow, and Yuanji cannot follow Gavin's footsteps.
"Preliminary statistics have been completed. The number of volunteers has greatly exceeded their original estimate. There are already 13,000 registered people. Even if there are some who change their minds at the last minute, there may be some who join temporarily.
, when it really starts, the number of people should fluctuate." Zalanda said lightly.
"Thirteen thousand? That many?" Even if Gavin was mentally prepared, he was also shocked by that number.
How many people are there in Darauma Yeyi? That accounts for one-tenth of the entire city.
"It's normal. No matter how blind you are, you can clearly see Darauma's predicament. The speed of urban construction cannot keep up with the gathering of citizens. Many people who came later have been squeezed several kilometers away from the city wall.
If they set up camp, once a war breaks out, their safety cannot be guaranteed, especially the battle to destroy the Root of Gods, which will have an impact on many people.
If the incarnation of Lady Strategy had not arrived, Darauma would have faced disaster, and those residents outside the city would have been the first to bear the brunt.
When facing the followers of the evil god, can Ms. Strategy be transformed into an incarnation? But when faced with the threat of ordinary monsters, or an external war among human beings, can Ms. Strategy be transformed into an incarnation? "
Zalanda understood the mentality of the citizens of Darauma very clearly, "There is one reason that cannot be ignored. Half of the population of Darauma migrated from surrounding areas in the past six months. In the process, they have already
They abandoned many things that could not be taken away. Although they are now called citizens of Dalauma, they have not found a sense of belonging in that city.
If they are allowed to migrate on their own, many of them will definitely hesitate, but whether to treat it as an organized and organized large-scale migration, the choice to join is not difficult to make."
"How are the specific arrangements being made?" What Zalanda said is not related to the external situation. Those citizens must have their own calculations and considerations. Gavin is not particularly concerned about this. After all, it is not
For a major event with huge implications, they could not formulate big policies, general directions, specific details, and implementation issues by just asking them one question, and then hand over to the knight officials in front of them to help solve the operation.
"The food supplies have almost been collected, and the equipment I sent is being worked overtime to renovate. In another ten months, it will be ready for distribution and installation." Zalanda began to count them one by one with her legs bent, "It's very long now."
There are several big issues that need to be finalized, including migration routes and horses, vehicles and other equipment. There are still a lot of gaps."
"I don't need to think about the vehicle issue anymore. He has already ordered people to work overtime at Misnoel. At least 500 heavy trucks can be produced before the migration. He has also started to work on the horse issue.
It’s impossible to get in position before the migration, but they can be used as a new force to help with the last difficult journey. We’ll wait until they decide the route to the east for the specific meeting point.”
Gavin directly pulled out the large map of Faerûn he carried with him and said, "There's no need to wait for that matter, let's finalize it tomorrow!"
Zalanda did not come together, but shook his head and said: "With so many people walking such a long way, there are really too many variables in it. The matter cannot be completely settled. It can be based on
The actual situation is that one journey is determined, and when the time comes, it is very important to attack the city. Everything depends on the subjective judgment of the commander leading the army. There is definitely no way to go through the trade routes across Tethyr and Amn.
The local rulers will definitely not allow such a large team to use the road, and most of the time they can just walk through trails or wilderness."
It is completely conceivable how huge a team with ten thousand people and their families would be. It has already surpassed many small and medium-sized cities. Even if they were given ten courages, the local rulers would not dare to take advantage of it easily, because they would not be able to use it easily.
If you are careful, you will lose your city.
"It makes sense." Gavin nodded involuntarily, "But he made that matter too simple. When the time comes, they must select a flexible general to lead the team. Yes, he must do that for that matter.
Take action personally, because that would be a great opportunity for him to establish prestige among immigrants and bring the relationship closer."
That will be your own human team. Even if you go by yourself, you can't completely hand it over to others to command. Instead, you can choose a few shrewd and capable lieutenants to assist you, allowing you to have free time to deal with other matters.
Just business.
"That's right." Zalanda nodded and said, "The immigration coach can disable me. Even if he disapproves, there is nothing he can do for me."
"He tried to get the job transfer matter done before the immigration plan started." Gavin carefully calculated the time. He originally had plenty of time, but because the stall he set up in Anfeier Village was a bit big, it was a little too big.
If you are nervous, there are some things you can do to speed things up appropriately.
"We'll discuss the details after the plan is launched." Zalanda said with a smile, "Let's look at the fruits of their labor during that period."
In the blink of an eye, they had reached the purpose of their trip.
A miniature girl wearing a snow-red princess dress, flapping beautiful butterfly wings, greeted her excitedly and said: "Mr. Gavin, they succeeded. They built a hydropower spinning mill, and its production efficiency is higher than theirs."
The initial estimate is to achieve a 30% improvement, but after normal operation, it is likely to increase by another 30%.”
"He knows that it was a very hard time. Sister Zalanda told him about me. The factory was able to put into production so quickly. I took the greatest credit. Wait a minute and I will do all the work in my legs."
Come on, go to Misnoel with him, take a good vacation and recuperate." Gavin did not hesitate to praise him.
Because he now has a deep understanding of the nature of fey, it is so rare for the pixy girl Nicole to stay in one place for more than a month without being red or black.
The extraordinary level she now possesses is not entirely due to the way of war, but also due to her accumulated experience in applying a series of designs.
"No." Nicole shook her head repeatedly, her little face was full of seriousness, "The place has just been put into operation, and many equipments are not running smoothly, and he knows them best. If he wants to take a vacation, he has to wait until the apprentices
, but after taking on a big responsibility..."
Before the Pixie Girl could finish speaking, a human girl rushed out in a hurry, "Teacher Nicole, Teacher Nicole, there is a machine that is not moving. I'm going to take a look."
"I see, he didn't leave for three minutes." Nicole pouted, as if she wanted to show a helpless expression.
But between her small brows, there is unconcealable pride and satisfaction. The feeling of being needed and irreplaceable is not ordinary. It is obvious that the Pixie Girl enjoys that feeling very much.
"I don't need to worry about him. We're getting down to business. He asked me to come and find out about Yidong's production. He won't be able to stay long before he has to leave." Gavin said to Nicole with a smile.
"Then he won't take me on a tour." After the pixy girl Dudong said this, she couldn't wait to take the human girl to the factory. As she walked, she asked the reason, and she criticized and educated her from time to time.
The human girl, who was seven or eight times smaller than herself, was respectful and looked like she was being taught.
Nicole explained with practical actions what it means to be 16 centimeters tall and 18 meters aura.
Zalanda explained on the side: "Miss Nicole's role there is indeed irreplaceable in a short time. She is not only responsible for maintaining the equipment, but is also further improving and debugging. It is said that she is studying a worsted spinning machine. By then, the output
Not only is it higher, the yarn produced is not only thinner, but also stronger."
"That's all the help he can provide. How much help he can provide depends on her." Gavin spread his legs helplessly.
As the saying goes, there are specialties in the arts, but I am really not good at that area.
Providing some simple ideas and future directions is the limit of what he can do. The rest is left to professionals like Nicole who are capable and thoughtful in this area.
Zalanda nodded in deep agreement and said, "The same goes for him. The only thing he can do now is to provide her with whatever she needs."
As soon as I stepped into the huge factory building, the rhythmic sound of mechanical impact echoed in my ears. The clicking sound was very rhythmic.
The entire factory is in the shape of a long and narrow strip, because it must rely on water canals as the driving force. More than a dozen huge wood-iron mixing machines are lined up side by side. Countless workers are surrounding it, busy working nervously. Countless fluffy cottons are produced very quickly.
Soon it turned into clean red cotton threads and was rolled into liquid cotton yarn.
If it were placed on the earth, that kind of small and medium-sized enterprises would be larger than a private workshop at best.
But if they are placed in Faerûn, there are definitely very few large-scale factories. They exist across the entire continent, and there are too many of them. Even if they exist, 80% of them are magic factories, not the kind of factories run by ordinary people.
Before Gavin could speak, Zalanda took the initiative to explain: "That factory is definitely a masterpiece that transcends the times. It will have a fatal impact on the entire textile industry. It has eighteen machines and more than a hundred people."
The factory produces enough cotton yarn to support the original work of 20,000 people, working non-stop on moonlit nights.
Because it not only realizes mechanized textiles, but also replaces most of the manpower with water-driven machinery for cleaning debris, removing seeds, and elasticizing cotton. It is completely done, cotton enters the factory, and cotton yarn leaves the factory.”
"Now that the cost has come, I can appropriately increase the purchase price of Yidong cotton. As long as the price comes, the economic blockade of those warlords and nobles will be broken." Even if there is no information-based modernity, I want to do it.
Economic blockade is not an easy task, let alone information transmission.
As long as the temptation to seek profit is strong enough, there will be nothing that businessmen dare not do or cannot do.
"That one is already doing it. The market price of cotton they are now offering is double that of other areas. As early as tomorrow, he has just sent away a wave of envoys from the Saradas family. They condemned them for disrupting the entire
Cotton market." Zalanda sneered, "What is a normal market for cotton? Does it have to be carried out according to the price they set? All profits must be squeezed out of the legs of those farmers? Will he ask to see it?
, apart from condemning that move, they could probably do something outrageous and resentful."
Now Zalanda's mentality is a little different from before Gavin returned.
At that time, even if she had the support of the goddess of strategy behind her, she was still trembling, walking on thin ice, mistreating those warlords and nobles, and it was difficult to be completely tough.
After all, gods are not omnipotent, especially when the livelihood of hundreds of thousands of people is involved, the assistance they can provide is quite limited.
But it's different now. What Gavin brought not only made up for her shortcomings, but even developed into her strengths, her brand new weapons.
Don’t we want to fight an economic war? Let’s first taste the impact of new textile technology.
