In the beast world, I got rich and became the favorite of the group

Chapter 175 Pumping Machine + Running Over By Himself? (4000 words)
The mold for the straight water pipe is ready!
"It's very neat. You can get more food and clothes for a few months. You deserve it."

An Jin nodded in satisfaction, and under the grateful gaze of the orcs, he continued, "According to the size of this section, make another curved stone mold with the same section, which can be used to connect the straight water pipes on both sides."

Although the orcs didn't quite understand what An Jin wanted to do, they started manufacturing in full swing according to her instructions.

In the morning of the next day, the second mold was also finished, and the two molds were moved to the vicinity of the iron smelting plant by the orcs, and An Jin and Ling Hong followed them.

The movement here attracted many orcs from the tribe.

Big and small, old and young, male and female... As long as they stayed at home and had nothing to do, the orcs rushed over to watch.

"Can the water pipe that the patriarch said really succeed? How is it possible to let the water in the river so far run over by itself?"

"Only the beast gods have such great power. How could the water run over by itself? They don't have long legs, so we can only rely on us to bring stone jars to pick them up..."

Everyone whispered, accompanied by big or small doubts, but they watched the situation at the iron smelting plant from a distance without blinking their eyes, for fear of missing any details.

There was billowing gray smoke in the iron smelting plant, and everyone held their breath, watching this unprecedented grand occasion.

"Quick! Pour it in!" A dozen orcs with burly bodies and sweaty muscles were holding a half-human-high stone vat, and quickly poured the molten iron in the vat into the mold.

The moment the bright red gold molten iron entered the mold, it was quickly poured with cold river water by the orcs.

The scorching hot molten iron was sucked away by the river water, and accompanied by the sound of violent boiling, a large puff of white smoke quickly evaporated in the air, covering people's vision.

When the white smoke dissipated, the bright red gold molten iron transformed into a silver-white metallic solid, which was molded into a cylinder with a hollow center.

According to An Jin's order, the orcs put some casting sand into the mold in advance, and the solidified iron water pipes were easily picked out by the orcs with their sharp nails, and thrown on the ground covered with soft turf.

Then they did the same, and produced more than 200 such two-meter-long straight iron water pipes and more than 50 curved iron water pipes again.

"The orcs who are still standing over there, come here, there is work that needs you to do." An Jin didn't even have to turn her head to look, and felt the hundreds of hot and surprised eyes that fell on her back.

Sure enough, there was a lot of chaotic footsteps behind him, and they stopped soon.

"We were attracted by such a big movement. We were really curious, so we came to take a look..."

After being discovered, they scratched their heads in embarrassment, showing a bit of simplicity, "What does the patriarch need us to do?"

An Jin said, "Follow everyone and transport all these iron pipes to the Datang River. We will dig holes there and bury these water pipes on the ground there."

"Yes!"

Such a huge project took most of the day without knowing it. The gradually cooling scorching sun slid down to the west, and the sky was stained with the afterglow of the evening.

Seeing that the sky was about to darken, the orcs hurriedly carried several heavy iron pipes weighing hundreds of catties each. Following An Jin's instructions, they ran towards the river as nimbly as ants carrying food.

From a distance, you can see hundreds of iron pipes running wildly, and countless pairs of long legs that are tossing fast.

"Come up, I'll carry you." Ling Hong also tied 7 or 8 iron pipes on his back with wooden vines. He originally wanted to throw An Jin on his back and carry them together, but when he thought that the iron pipes were too much , and directly reached out to embrace her and ran to the river.

The howling cold wind blew on her face, making her hair whistling. The seaweed-like black and lush hair was all blown onto Ling Hong's resolute and handsome face, leaving a few inches of lingering fragrance.

He moved his wrist, and the hand on her waist tightened a bit. It would have taken An Jin half an hour to walk there by himself, but Ling Hong shortened it to seven or eight minutes.

Unexpectedly, he was carrying a thousand-jin iron pipe, could hold her with one hand, run effortlessly, and didn't even sweat a little on his face.

His physical strength is really... good.

An Jin was very envious.

By the time they got to the river, many orcs had already thrown the iron pipes on their backs on the river bank, and some orcs with poor physical strength began to lie on the ground and pant heavily.

The iron pipes collided with each other, making a crisp and piercing "humming~" sound, which made people rub their arms and get goosebumps.

The moment before Ling Hong unloaded the iron pipe, An Jin jumped out of his arms and stepped on the sparse yellow grass with his feet.

She picked up a branch at random, released her mental energy to scan around, and then drew a straight line on the ground with the long, hard branch.

"Just start digging from here. The amount of work is too big. I can't finish it in one day. Let's dig to—"

An Jin dragged the branch to a hundred meters away, and finally selected a point closest to the center of the city. "Let's dig here first! Then lay a water pipe in the dug long pit."

"Dig as deep as you can, but keep the depth the same."

She touched her chin, pondered for a while, and then continued, "If you encounter a huge rock that cannot be removed, use those curved water pipes to change the route, and then use a curved water pipe to connect back to the original route."

"Wow!" The orcs with sharper claws turned into animal shapes and began to dig a hole, and after a while, half of their bodies got into the hole.

Some of the weaker orcs brought shovels from their homes to dig holes.

An Jin was not idle either. She took the shovel from an orc and started digging a hole with them.

Although her strength is not as strong as that of a strong orc, but a little more strength can finish work a second earlier.

The sun gradually slanted to the west, and the sun was hidden in the blue-purple mountain twilight in the distance. Like a shy girl, she held a fan like a mountain to cover her flushed cheeks little by little.

After the orcs worked together to dig a passage through the ground, they arranged the water pipes closely and put them into the pit, trying not to leave a single gap.

"Stay away! This is the hottest molten iron like magma, but it will burn your skin off!" Several orcs from the ironworks walked over slowly carrying the hot molten iron just out of the oven, yelling loudly.

The orcs who had dug the hole quickly backed away, for fear of being splashed by the boiling molten iron.

The molten iron absorbs heat quickly and dissipates heat slowly. Even if the orcs carried it from the iron smelting plant to the river, the scalding temperature and bright red appearance would not be reduced by half.

The molten iron was carefully poured on the junction of the two iron pipes, and then the cold river water was quickly poured on it. With the sound of white smoke, the bright red molten iron instantly cooled and condensed into iron.

The small gap between the two iron pipes that was originally invisible to the naked eye was quickly filled.

Then they continued to do the same thing, and the dozens of iron pipes that were originally scattered were turned into a large iron pipe dozens of meters long by the orcs.

Once you encounter a corner, you still use this method to connect the curved water pipe, and then reconnect it to the original passage after bypassing the obstacle.

With the sound of labor by the river, everything is going on in an orderly manner.

The sky that was originally dyed orange-red also began to gradually become dark, as if a pot of ink had been sprinkled on it.

Two huge crescent moons covering 1/4 of the sky secretly climbed up from the branches, the twinkling stars gradually brightened, and the brilliant and magnificent Milky Way ran through the navy blue night sky.

Tonight's night seemed extraordinarily bright and beautiful, without a trace of dark clouds covering it, as if countless bright lights were releasing light and heat for the hard-working orcs.

The roars of beasts rang out one after another in the distant jungle, but they were afraid of the scent of the large orcs here, so they hid far away.

Finally, the project on their side gradually came to an end.

"Let's go back to rest first, and continue tomorrow. The cold season will arrive in about 10 days. We just need to finish the project before the cold season comes." According to this speed, let alone 10 days, it is estimated that 5 days will be enough up.

The orcs wiped the sweat off their faces, jumped into the river to take a battle bath, cleaned up and returned home one after another.

On the second day, the orcs came to the river to dig the channel according to the previous track. With the experience of the first day, even if An Jin was not present, the project could be carried out in an orderly manner.

After An Jin drew the pipeline route for the orcs, he simply left this project and turned to another project.

- Manufacture of water pumps.

Water pipes alone are definitely not enough. The water pipes are just a drainage channel. If you want to transport the water in the river to every household through the channel, you must use the help of a water pump.

If there is no electricity in the animal world, then use a hand-operated water pump.

There are many kinds of water pumps known today. With the help of various scientific principles, An Jin thought about it and locked on the piston water pump.

The structure is simple, the operation is convenient, and it can be manufactured even in the animal world with relatively backward productivity.

The principle of piston pumping is actually simple - use atmospheric pressure to press water up.

She rushed to work overnight on the design of a hand-operated piston water pump, which is very convenient for pumping water and air.

After handing over the design drawings to the orcs in the workshop, she left with peace of mind, and could come to pick up the finished product after three days.

After several years of training, the craftsmanship of the orcs in the workshop has become more and more exquisite, and the mastery of size and size is perfect. As long as she submits the design drawings, she can get exactly the same finished product.

"What is this thing? It's so strange, it can't be used for sleeping, and it can't be used as a stool. Why did the patriarch ask us to make this thing?"

The orcs in the workshop have begun to whisper.

"Why do you think so much? The patriarch asked us to make things, so there is a reason for her."

The orcs next to him urged, "Stop talking nonsense, do it quickly, this time things are a bit complicated, I don't know if three days will be enough..."

After the water pump is built, the laying of water pipes has also been completed.

Today is a special day, all the orcs in the city gathered in the square, An Jin stood on the high platform, receiving the baptism of everyone's eyes.

Can you really let the river water run to their house by itself?This is a common question among the orcs present.

This kind of absurd thing, which is absolutely impossible in the eyes of the beast world, will completely change their lives in the future.

"Everyone has worked hard these past few days. All the orcs participating in the project can receive an extra 100 catties of animal meat and 5 sets of clothing this month."

While talking, An Jin walked to the water pipe and opened the stone that blocked the water pipe.

Everyone stared at the water pipe nervously for one second...two seconds...one minute...

However, no water came out.

"Is it still not working? How could the water in the river come over by itself? Unless the Lord Beast God comes, will there be a miracle?" The orcs sighed in disappointment. It seems that even the omnipotent patriarch, she sometimes When you miss.

The efforts of the past few days were in vain.

The originally enthusiastic atmosphere in the crowd suddenly dropped to freezing point, and gray haze shrouded everyone's heart.

There were still a few orcs who continued to stare at the water pipe mouth without giving up, but as time passed, the hope in their eyes was gradually shattered.

"Don't worry, the water will definitely not come out now, and there is still one last step to do." An Jin just smiled, and she asked a few orcs to move the water pump to the side of the water pipe, and then connected the two.

Ling Hong, who was behind her, was the first to stand up, his cold eyes swept across the noisy crowd below, his sharp and slender eyebrows were frowned, and his thin lips were slightly parted, "We must have confidence in the patriarch, the beast god will not come to help us, But we can help ourselves."

The man's long, rock-solid honey-colored legs stepped forward. Under everyone's nervous gaze, he squatted down, reached out and grasped the rocker arm and began to swing.

Ling Hong's strength was great, his movements were sharp and quick, and the swing of the rocker almost became an afterimage.

His muscular and muscular arms condense a vigorous sense of strength, but they don't look bulky and rude, but full of hormones and wildness.

As the air in the water pipe was sucked out, the river water rushed into the water pipe quickly, and then Ling Hong pulled the rocker arm several times, accompanied by the sound of "bang--".

River water jetted out from the nozzle, pouring water on the blue marble floor, smudging large swathes of water.

"This, is this river water? This is water! The water really came here by itself?!" The orcs were stunned by this scene.

The Datang River is obviously thousands of meters away, so why did the water in the river come here by itself? !
They ran to the mouth of the water pipe in disbelief, reached out to catch a handful of water, and poured it on their faces.

The touch of the cool, clear water forced them to accept the reality in front of them.

——Water really came here by itself? !
"Patriarch, how did this happen? It's amazing. I've never heard of such a thing. Even the high priests don't have such powerful spiritual power!"

"This is not spiritual power, this is science."

"science?"

The orcs were even more confused.

"This science is not difficult to say, but it is not easy to say it is simple. I will tell you slowly when I have time in the future." It seems that education must be put on the agenda, and at least some basic scientific principles should be known to them.

The orcs dragged their families to bring buckets, ran to the mouth of the water pipe to collect water, and carried it back home.

The whole process back and forth only takes a few minutes.

"It's much more convenient than before. It's just two steps away, and the female doesn't have to go all the way to the river to wash clothes." The orc laughed more and more from ear to ear, and there was nowhere to vent the turbulent emotions in his heart.

"This is just preliminary construction, so you can see that building water pipes is not a waste of work."

An Jin continued, "This year's cold season is coming soon, and there is not enough time. It will be more convenient when the water pipe will be directly connected to your yard next year."
