Carry a Ride-and-slash System with You

: Sixty-two, cement and lime

The territorial stronghold was officially named 'White Wolf Town' and the news that Lord Harry would be the chief executive quickly spread throughout the town. The civilians and warriors were very happy. Now they are counted as town residents, no longer like As before, like duckweed swaying in the wind.

Geralt continued to stare at the production of limestone, and stopped a brick kiln to tell them that the limestone and clay could be ground and mixed to produce a new type of material, in order to make the brick kiln The temperature inside was higher, and Geralt had Gaudí attach two large external blowers.

Let the members of the manufacturing team try it first, and then ask Geralt to come over to identify it when it burns out, to see if it is similar to the cement in memory.

Everyone in the territory performed their own duties, and various industries developed rapidly.

The gear made by the blacksmith was completed on the third day. The architect Gaudí arranged for the water forging waterwheel to be installed by hand. Through the experiment of the blacksmith, the hammering interval of the water forging hammer was too fast, so the water forging waterwheel was being dismantled. After re-installing and disassembling it, after repeated experiments many times, it finally worked perfectly.

The water-forged waterwheel hammered by water power is much more convenient and faster than manpower, and the important thing is that it saves the physical strength of the blacksmiths. Therefore, the second day when the water-forged waterwheel runs perfectly, the original blacksmith shop was also demolished. The two master blacksmiths and more than thirty apprentices moved the blacksmith shop to the vicinity of the water forging waterwheel.

One water-forged waterwheel was not enough, so Gaudí worked hard for a few days to build two, and more than thirty blacksmith apprentices were divided into three groups and arranged to work in the three water-forged waterwheels.

The two master blacksmiths went to study the project of blast furnace steelmaking. Although there are three water forging waterwheels that can temper a lot of steel every day, it is too slow after all, so Geralt's focus is still placed on the blast furnace.

The two master blacksmiths have already experimented in the blast furnace built by Gaudí. The blast furnace emits hot smoke every day, and there are a lot of limestones to assist in steelmaking. The master blacksmiths shook their heads. It was just ordinary iron, not steel, and even more brittle than ordinary iron. Geralt was not in a hurry and told the two master blacksmiths to continue the experiment.

However, the members of the production team responsible for refining the cement received good news, and sent someone to tell Geralt that the cement firing was a success.

Geralt was overjoyed and rushed to the brick kiln following the members of the manufacturing team who came to report the news.

When they arrived near the brick kiln, Geralt was overjoyed when he saw that workers wearing masks kept coming in and out of the cooled brick kiln, carrying out trucks after trucks of black lumps.

"Sir." The person in charge of firing this brick kiln greeted Geralt.

"At the beginning, I couldn't control the heat well, so I failed. Later, I made preparations. After continuous attempts, yesterday I finally succeeded in burning the cement that the lord said. Please forgive me."

The person in charge of the brick kiln was a member of the manufacturing team, and told Geralt about the problems encountered during the firing process.

"It's a good job. I wrote down all these experiences and put them in a book, which will also be useful for training workers in the future."

Geralt praised the person in charge of the brick kiln and asked him to save his experience to prepare for the construction of a cement workshop in the future.

Geralt took a cart from the hand of the porter, pushed it to a flat place and fell to the ground, brought in stones to grind it into powder, and asked a nearby soldier to transport it and it was ready. The sand in the river, Geralt brought a bucket of water and began to stir it up.

Mix the cement and sand evenly with water. Geralt didn't care about whether it was dirty or not. He squatted down and began to press the cement into small cubes. When the cement became small cubes, Geralt got up and used the Wiping the sweat from his face with his elbows, he called a soldier.

"Put a warning line on this place, and don't allow anyone to move those small squares!"

"Understood, my lord."

Geralt washed his hands with the remaining water in the bucket, looked at the cement blocks all over the floor, and came over to test the strength when it cured tomorrow.

After washing his hands, Geralt went to the brick kiln again, looking at the person in charge of the brick kiln that was still directing workers to transport cement.

"After the brick kiln is emptied today, there is no need to fire cement in the kiln. I will send someone to inform you tomorrow."

"Understood, my lord."

The person in charge nodded to indicate that he understood, and then asked.

"Sir, do I still need to continue to burn bricks here?"

Geralt thought for a while and said.

"Don't need it for the time being. The cement and bricks are not fired first. You smash them with limestone, and then calcine the limestone separately."

"Yes, sir."

After giving the order, Geralt left here, and the day passed quickly. The next morning, Geralt came to the cement block.

After checking them one by one, they found that they were all cured. They took out the small hammers prepared last night and smashed them one by one.

Hmm... how should I put it, the strength Geralt thinks is okay, but he also feels that the strength of the cement in the previous life is higher than this.

"Is there anything wrong with the firing process?"

Geralt frowned while smashing the small cubes, thinking about it. After all the small cement cubes were smashed, Geralt stood up.

"The strength is the same, which means that this kind of cement can be used, but why do I always feel that something is wrong?"

While thinking about it, Geralt walked to the brick kiln, but he still didn't come up with it, so Geralt gave up. Anyway, cement of this strength can already be used, so let's burn it first.

Yesterday, the person in charge of the brick kiln was instructed to burn the lime. com is now being shipped out.

Walking to the person in charge, Geralt said.

"The cement can continue to be fired, and the last batch of cement can be sent to Gaudí, so that he can use cement as a bonding material to build the city wall."

"Okay sir, I'll make arrangements later, what should I do with this batch of calcined lime?"

The person in charge of the brick kiln obeyed and pointed to the lime that the workers were carrying.

"Pile it up on the open space first, take waterproof measures, and I'll let Harry take care of it."

Geralt replied to the person in charge, and then left here.

Without stopping, after leaving the brick kiln, Geralt came directly to the council hall, pushed open the door of Harry's office, and sat opposite Harry.

"Good day, sir."

As soon as Geralt sat down, Harry got up and said hello.

"Sit down and sit down, I'll tell you, I've had people calcined a batch of lime, and you can arrange for someone to try to tan fur and leather with lime."

Busy and out of breath, Geralt didn't bother to pay attention to any etiquette issues, and said straight to the point.

"Good sir, I will arrange for someone with experience in tanning to try it."

Said and poured Geralt a glass of water.

Geralt drank the water in one breath and continued.

"Also, sprinkle all those public toilets with lime to clean them up. It's so stinky there!"

Thinking of the few public toilets that were far away from the town and the smell, Geralt is still a little sick now. Fortunately, it was far away when it was planned. Although it is not very convenient for the residents to go to the toilet, it is better than repairing it. in town.

Geralt said, Harry remembered that the two of them cooperated very well.
