Soon after the construction of Harmony Village began, there was an area called "No. 4" in the village that was on high security and prohibited outsiders from approaching. Zhou Qingfeng placed the "No. 4" area in the middle of the village during planning, with administrative, military camps, etc. Surrounded by ribbons.
Compared to the bustling tavern, District No. 4 is only a hundred meters away from it, and it also makes noisy noises from time to time. However, all its movements are basically covered up by the noisier forging ground, and few people pay attention to it.
Most of the people working in District 4 are the villagers who first followed Zhou Qingfeng out of Black Marsh Village. After repeated screening, education, and training, their total number is less than fifty, but they are the true direct descendants of the Chairman, and they are absolutely different from outsiders. .
These direct descendants are neither powerful nor tall and strong, and their appearance is very ordinary, no different from other people in the village. However, Zhou Qingfeng gives them the highest treatment in terms of food, clothing, accommodation and even marriage.
Because on the population registration form of Harmony Village, the identity of these people is - workers.
The buildings in the 'Fourth' District are nothing special, not big in scale, just a few spacious bungalows. The villagers-turned-workers have been receiving Sophia's 'online education' from the early days, and Hilly didn't even get involved in this matter. .
After repeated education and training, these workers have mastered a little knowledge. They can read and write a small amount of simple words, perform addition and subtraction calculations, can memorize the "Nine-nine Tables", and have a basic understanding of scale units.
This level is considered intellectual in Harmony Village, where illiterate people are everywhere - many people in the village didn't even have names before, and they were called by nicknames. There are many people who call them "mud", "shit" and "stinky ball" yes.
It's just such a group of low-level workers, paired with a low-level workshop, but what they manufacture is unusual - arrow shafts. Arrow shafts that are straight, well-proportioned, consistent in size, light and heavy.
Don't underestimate the arrow shaft, it is very important.
Not long after Zhou Qingfeng arrived in the other world, he discovered that all the products here could not be consistent in large quantities. The pots and pans in life, the knives and armor in battle were all the same.
Human beings lack fangs and claws, so the most important weapon is arrows that can attack from a long distance. The biggest consumable is also arrows. The biggest difficulty in arrows is the well-proportioned arrow shaft.
But all the arrows Zhou Qingfeng has seen are different, with great differences in length and thickness. The greatest skill of experienced hunters is to adapt to different arrows. Because it is difficult to make the arrow shafts exactly the same by hand-cutting. The output is also special. of low.
When Uncle Zhou joined forces with the "heroes" of the Black Forest in Tieliang Village, he saw with his own eyes those country guys splitting the wood with a bǐ shǒu and cutting arrow shafts by themselves. After cutting for a long time, he picked it up and visually judged whether it was straight. As for the thicker and thinner ones, The requirements cannot be too high.
An archer may not be able to sharpen ten arrows in a long time, but it only takes a few breaths to shoot them. What should I do if I run out of arrows in a battle? Just go up and fight with the knife.
In Zhou Qingfeng's mind, if you can shoot from a distance, don't fight at close range. He started thinking about arrows after occupying Mouse Village. The first industrial project after he started building Harmony Village was a woodworking lathe for making arrow shafts.
After all, he was also a person who had received nine-year compulsory education. Zhou Qingfeng found some simple design drawings in the real world and worked on them with his carpenters.
First, make a unified measuring tool and build a heavy, large square table that is driven into the ground to serve as a workbench. Then make simple fixtures and tools. Since there are no bearings, Zhou Qingfeng was troubled by the need to build a stable rotation and sufficient strength platform.
But the woodworking lathe is the simplest mechanical tool, and it was built with the help of various information. At first, it required manpower to operate, but Zhou Qingfeng quickly equipped it with a wind drive, so that it can run day and night.
work.
Once this lathe is started, it opens a door to a new world. The roughly processed thin wooden rod is rotated on the stand, and the tool slides gently along the rod body, and a high-quality arrow shaft can be obtained in half a minute.
.
This lathe is completely made of wood, without any metal. It is so simple that it is ridiculous, like a defective product put together by children like building blocks. But it only needs to work for one hour, and its efficiency is comparable to that of ten carpenters working in one day, and it does a good job.
better!
With the first woodworking lathe, Zhou Qingfeng quickly used it to upgrade himself and produce parts for the second woodworking lathe. The processing progress and efficiency far exceeded that of manual work. Then he replaced some key parts with metal, and everything was perfect.
.
With the lathe, finer parts can be processed quickly. Coupled with the wind saw, wood processing is not difficult. With a large number of wooden boards, the construction speed of the village can be greatly improved. One step at a time, it is very stable.
.
Compared with the unreliable wind forging machine in the forging yard, the wood processing system is simpler and more practical. Zhou Qingfeng did not let outsiders intervene at all, and only used his trusted direct descendants.
The rich wood resources in the Black Forest provide this workshop with abundant raw materials, and several lathes work day and night. At most, they can provide three to four thousand arrow shafts a day. The forge has not enough arrows.
When Zhou Qingfeng went to explore the Silver Leaf City, the workshop started small batch trial production. When he came back, the workshop's warehouse was filled with 30,000 standard arrows, and more than 70,000 unassembled arrows.
of arrow shaft.
"Sell it, take it out and sell it!"
When Harmony Village opened a new copy of the new Black Forest adventure map, Zhou Qingfeng did not hesitate to order the arrows in stock to be sold to external parties, "But only to customers who purchase our adventure gift pack. A bundle of fifty copper coins, open for sale."
The adventurers who came to Harmony Village were excited by the news of the opening of "Silver Leaf City", and discovered that a weapons store had opened opposite the tavern. The main product in the store was bundles of arrows.
All arrows are almost identical, and each one seems to have been carefully selected. Archers no longer have to worry about the differences between different arrows. As long as they adapt to one arrow, they can shoot the next arrow continuously. This is
Let the equipment adapt to the person.
There is a small shooting range next to the weapon shop, and adventurers who want to make a fortune flock here to try shooting. Anyone who has used the 'Harmony' brand standard arrows all praises them. For many people with poor archery skills,
The user experience is great.
The most rare thing is that the 'Harmony' brand standard arrows are well made and relatively cheap. After all, arrows are consumables. It is common to shoot more than ten or twenty in a battle. If they are too expensive, they cannot be used.
To celebrate the opening of the new map and new copy of the Black Forest, the weapon shop has a big discount. A bundle of ten sticks costs fifty copper coins, which is half the price than elsewhere. Buying ten bundles comes with a free arrow pot, and buying twenty bundles gives you a 'paralysis potion'
One bottle.
As soon as the shop here opened, a bunch of adventurers crowded in front of the door to pay for them. The five hundred pots of arrows prepared in advance were quickly sold out, and another five hundred had to be sold.
After selling the arrows, the salesperson in the store would like to ask, "Dear customer, after purchasing the arrows, don't you want another bottle of enchanting potion? You can kill powerful enemies at critical moments, or you can save your life and fight again. Limited time promotion,
