Chapter 111 Efficiency Issues

Sigmund also doesn’t quite understand how things got here Such.

He was originally just an ordinary team Captain of Silver Stream Mine, and his biggest plan for his life was just the word “resignation”.

But one day, after he was dragged out of his throat by a self-proclaimed judge, a spider with a human face, his fate, which he could see at a glance, suddenly began to change. Unpredictable.

In the beginning, the presiding judge just sent him to a field in the mountains and asked to excavate an ancient ruin, and promised him that as long as he could do this well, he could become a “mason repairer”. Alternate member of the Council”. Although Sigmund didn’t know what kind of organization the Mason Order was, it didn’t prevent him from agreeing to this commission because he thanked the other party for his life-saving grace.

Everything was normal at the beginning, dozens of miners, rudimentary equipment, limited supplies and generous rewards, except for the few Netherworld Knights who were responsible for their security work. These things are still within Sigmund’s understanding.

But then things started to make him feel more outrageous than each other.

First, the presiding judge directly transformed the rock and soil blocking the valley pass into a human-shaped earth servant, and then used them to open a road to this long-forgotten mountain within the valley.

Although it is a very rough and rough road, it still connects here with several surrounding towns and establishes a stable logistic supply line.

And then, this deserted place started to get lively day by day.

A hired professional excavation team, various skilled craftsmen from the Craftsman’s Guild, a large number of logisticians, clergy of the Holy Spirit Church, a small number of magic casters, and many enchanters and alchemists…

…not only did a team of luxurious technicians come here, but there were even a few circuses in the nearest town to relieve their boredom.

It seems to have gone from a wilderness to a thriving town overnight.

At the same time, one news after another was brought from afar, constantly confirming the Lord Judge’s previous promise like a fantasy story.

The former Duke of Thorns died, the entire Elemental Silver industry began to reshuffle, and the Blackwater Province announced its independence from the empire’s rule…

Now the ruler of the entire Blackwater Province is The former chief court mage Vincent, the first thing he did after taking office was to spend a lot of money to hire experts in various fields to come to this deserted sad mountain range to repair the fortress.

And what happened next was even more dreamy for Sigmund.

The refined source silver, which was purchased by the gram in the market, was dragged here by box after box, and piled into the warehouse like sweet potatoes. Soon after, the processing equipment of the Thorn City Element Silver Refinery was disassembled and shipped here for assembly. apart from this, and the large enchanting table regarded as a treasure by Offa University was also taken down and sent here for placement.

Many of these devices are antiques produced before the establishment of Riel Empire, and their manufacturing processes have long been lost. Some things are even damaged and do not know how to repair them. . But in order to save a little time to repair the fortress, they were all dismantled and sent here.

After the preliminary work on the excavation of the ruins was over, Vincent sent almost all the enchanters above a certain rating in the entire Thorn City to be responsible for the maintenance of the second stage of the fortress. .

Of course none of the above was the most incomprehensible to Sigmund.

The most incomprehensible thing for him is that until now he is still the direct Chief-In-Charge of the entire fortress maintenance work.

In other words, the thousands of people who are now mourning the mountain range, whether they are miners or craftsmen, whether they are enchanters or magic casters, are actually obeying his command now.

“Lord Presiding Judge, I think I may not be able to handle such an important job, you should ask for another…”

One time, the presiding judge in that mysterious came back to check the work As it progressed, Sigmund dared to suggest to him.

“Why? Isn’t your current job doing a good job? I don’t see any flaws. Rather, you have managed this place quite well.”

The Inquisitor who checked the condition of the already laid lines in the fort so replied.

“But I was just the Chief-In-Charge of a team before, and I didn’t understand those technical things. So far, I haven’t made any mistakes, it’s just my good luck…”

“Then keep your luck going.”

The other party replied lightly.

He went on to say:

“Some people help you check the technical problems, and all you have to do is learn how to make good use of those people. You’re doing very well now. Don’t worry, if you really can’t do this job, you don’t have to propose it yourself, I’ll just find someone else to take your place, but before that, I need you to take care of it. Take responsibility for this job.”

Sigmund was very disturbed by the presiding judge’s speech at that time, and he always felt that there would be greater challenges waiting for him in the future.

As expected, shortly after that, the presiding judge ordered that the construction of the Fengmo rune line be laid 30% ahead of schedule and must be completed before the rainy month this year. Compared with the adjusted plan, the current project progress is far behind.

It made Sigmund’s hair go gray. Because with the current manpower and efficiency, this is basically an unachievable goal.

Although the raw materials and working equipment here are very abundant, because the level gap of these enchanters is too uneven, the pass rate of the final product can be said to be extremely appalling.

Merely identifying and returning unqualified seal runes, and then casting and re-forging, at least slowed down the efficiency of the entire project by 40%.

But even so, Sigmund didn’t dare to keep putting pressure on the Enchanting Factory. Because last time, after he issued the death order, several enchanters had a private discussion with the magic caster who was in charge of testing whether the finished product was qualified or not, and marked some magic seal runes that were barely usable as qualified although there were problems. The finished product was sent to the engineering team.

If it wasn’t for Sigmund’s attention in advance, there would be a final inspection without the other party’s knowledge before the final line was laid, maybe that batch of problematic seal runes would have been installed on the fortress.

At that time, after Sigmund learned about this situation, he was so angry that he took the control of the three Netherworld Knights in his hands to find the enchanting factory, and they joined forces to deceive his enchanter. I was almost scared to urinate with the inspector.

But even if the other party’s actions were wrong, Sigmund couldn’t argue with their excuses afterwards.

They’re only so capable, and now everyone at this Reverend is doing their best work. But what you can’t do is you can’t, whether it’s continuing to increase pay or threatening violence, you can’t get someone who’s done their best to continue to be productive.

Forcibly increasing the pressure and increasing the demands will not help them in any positive way, except for them to take risks and coax themselves together.

In the end, nothing changed except that the enchanter and the inspector’s workplace were completely isolated, and the rules for blind inspection were formulated.

Even this new rule has slowed down the overall work efficiency a bit, after all those runs are no longer ready for inspection as soon as they are completed.

In the end, Sigmund, who didn’t even finish Offa’s pre-university class, was forced to go to the enchanting factory himself, ready to learn the entire enchanting process from scratch, and see if this would work. Like mining, there is room for optimization in the process.

And the first day he came to the enchanting factory, he found a huge problem – all the enchanting runes were made by the enchanters themselves, and then cast them by themselves.
