Warlords: Rise From the Land of Doom

Chapter 108: caravan arrives

"I've seen your lord!" When Narant came to John's blacksmith's house, Pete was already waiting with the masons and carpenters.

"Well, get up!" Narant waved his hand towards the group of people, and his eyes fell on the newly built stove.

The stove was no different from what he had in mind.

However, most of the previous lives were brick kilns, but this one is made of loess and stones.

The whole furnace is rectangular, with a width of more than one meter and a length of about two meters.

As for the internal structure, except that the fire chamber is straight, the rest is similar to the firewood stove in the countryside in the previous life.

After all, a large pot needs to be placed above the wood-fired stove, so the mouth is small and the stomach is big, but this wrought iron stove does not need it.

The top layer of the stove is used to burn charcoal, the lower layer is used to store carbon ash, and a bellows air outlet is reserved at the inner end of the stove.

After the stove was finished, Narant looked at the waterwheel again.

At this time, the small waterwheel has been installed, but the water flow is blocked by a large wooden board above, so the small waterwheel is still in a static state at this time.

"John, please light a stove!" Narant instructed John, who was beside him.

"Yes, Lord!"

As a senior blacksmith, to be honest, this is the first time John has seen such a strange stove.

In the past, the stoves were round and round, like a small wooden barrel.

However, although I have never tried a stove like this, I am still looking forward to this stove John.

Because from the shape of the furnace, one thing he is very clear about is that this furnace must be more advantageous when calcining long strips of iron.

For example, for calcining long swords, a cylindrical furnace was used in the past, that is to insert the long sword directly, but this way, the heat problem alone cannot be observed with the naked eye, and it needs to be pulled out from time to time to check.

In addition, there is the problem of uniform heating. The long sword is inserted into the furnace. Because the bottom of the sword is buried deeply, the temperature must be higher than the end of the sword.

If it is not handled well at that time, it is easy for the long sword to be scrapped directly, or it is also a defective product when it is done well, and it is easy to break in the battle.

But this rectangular stove, as long as the long sword is placed flat on the charcoal fire, not only the temperature situation is clear at a glance, but the temperature of the sword tip and blade can also be heated evenly.

Thinking like this, John skillfully started to ignite.

As the charcoal fire was lit, Narant instructed, "Let the water go!"

"Yes, my lord!" Pete Leather Boots immediately trotted to the edge of the stream and picked up the wooden board separating the water.

Crash!

Creep! creak!

As the water scoured, the waterwheel slowly began to rotate.

After the waterwheel rotates, the horizontal shaft at the center drives a 'concave' horizontal shaft in front to start to rotate.

As the 'concave' wooden shaft rotates, the bellows rods fixed above also begin to be pulled up and down, back and forth.

Snoring!

Snoring!

Although the bellows was full of loopholes, there was still a large amount of wind that was sent to the stove.

"How's it going, John!" Narant asked, looking at the rapidly burning charcoal in the stove and the pale red flames more than ten centimeters high.

"Lord Lord, wait a moment, the villain will give it a try!"

Blacksmith John immediately took out an iron bar that was 40 to 50 centimeters long and put it on the stove.

As the flames in the stove scorched, it took only ten seconds for the iron bars to become red as visible to the naked eye.

"It's so fast! Lord Lord, the effect of this stove is really good! Not only does it heat up quickly, but it also heats the iron embryo evenly!" John showed an extremely excited look on his face.

For the blacksmith, this furnace is like a warrior who has obtained a sharp blade, and he can't help but be excited.

More importantly, this stove does not require apprentices to pull the bellows, which is even more the heart of John Blacksmith.

"Your majesty!" The carpenters and masons on the side were also dumbfounded.

Of course, what they were looking at was a small waterwheel, which was used to automatically push and pull the bellows, which was something they had never heard of before.

Suddenly there was a trace of enlightenment in everyone's mind, as if a new door had been opened.

"Very good!" Narant nodded and smiled at everyone, and then continued: "Since you can, then John, you will speed up the progress, by the way, when you are free, you can replace the wooden shaft that pulls the bellows with Iron shaft, this should last longer!"

"Yes, Lord Lord! Lord Lord, you are the wisest nobleman John has ever seen!" At this time, John also revealed his true temperament, and praised Narant with great sincerity.

"Yeah!" Nalanda nodded, then looked at the carpenter and the mason, "As for you, I'm going to build a mill in a few days, and I will also use this waterwheel to replace human and animal power. At that time, the size of the waterwheel will be this. More than ten times, you go back these days and prepare well!"

"When the mill is completed without error, everyone will be rewarded with ten silver coins!"

"Thank you, Lord, for your generosity!" The mason and carpenter smiled happily upon hearing this.

"Ding! The system side quests to improve the work efficiency of the blacksmith shop have been completed, and the system rewards have been issued!"

At the same time, a system sound came from Narant's mind.

"Hey, I got a little cutie!" Narant was overjoyed, "However, it seems that you haven't sent my third lucky daughter to me, right?"

Narant complained to the system, and then walked out of John's house happily.

When he came to the square of Maiye Village and wanted to see the progress of the construction of the stone house, a guard ran towards the village entrance.

"Sir, there are several convoys on the road in the direction of Tulip, at least hundreds of people!"

"Oh? Could it be that the caravan sent by my father is here?" Narant's eyes lit up ~www.readwn.com~ The people coming from the direction of Tulip City, basically there would be no enemies.

"Come on, let's go and see!"

However, in order to make sure nothing goes wrong, Narant still rode on the lightning bolt and took the guards to check on one or two.

When Narant and the others arrived outside the castle, the convoy reported by the guards was less than a mile away from them.

Narant stepped forward immediately.

"Master Narant!" When it was more than 100 meters away from the convoy in front, a call suddenly came from the convoy.

Nalande looked closely and saw that it was a man in his sixties. Although he was on his way, his silk dress and hair were meticulously managed.

"Old Steward Ute!" The next moment, Narant searched for the old man's information from his memory. This was the castle steward under his father.

"Utter has seen Master Narant!" Soon, Utter came to Narant and gave Narant a respectful salute.

"Butler Ute, don't be too polite!" Narant got off his horse and helped Ute up.

This Ute has served as the steward of Andrew Castle for thirty years. Although he is a servant, for the three Narant brothers and sisters, they are no different from their relatives and elders.

"I didn't expect that my father would send you Butler Ute this time!" Narant was also a little excited.

Of course, this is still because the memory of the original owner in the subconscious plays a certain factor.

Away from the family, a person can meet close people in this Storm Territory, this exciting feeling is unimaginable in the 21st century in the previous life.

In the era of backward transportation and communication, sometimes parting is likely to be a goodbye. Although the nobles are better, they are similar.
