Chapter 58 Hydraulic Presses

After these three days of labor, the land reclamation group led by the Nanshan patriarch has cleared more than ten mu of land around the army-green tent camp.The brown land formed a complete block. Compared with the dense grass and deep forest where even the beast way was hard to find when the first group of people arrived here 3 days ago, this place has already shown the embryonic form of a human settlement.

The thick weeds that were almost waistless were cut off, and most of the shrubs that had lost their leaves were dug up. Within the designated area, the trees were also cut down. People dug out the roots and dragged them to the designated area. stacked in the area.After estimating the distance, a team of ten people set up poles at both ends, and then along the long line stretched straight from woven bags tied to the poles, they used white stone powder to draw huge checkerboard-like squares on the ground.Unlike yesterday, judging by the amount of stone powder they prepared this time, it seemed that they were planning to enclose the entire cleared land into the magician's plan.

For the majority of people who are delighted with the huge changes that have taken place in a short period of time and have already established incomparable trust in Yunshen, although they don't understand the meaning behind this move, as long as it is the order of the black-haired lord, then There is definitely nothing wrong with doing it.Just like on the first day, some people who originally wondered why the magician didn't make people act collectively like he was still on the way, felt admiration from the bottom of their hearts after witnessing his wrist.After the night when the magician got a clear status, some people who came back to their senses really felt unconvinced—everything was already decided, so how could they have any choice?Moreover, the plan proposed by the magician is so complicated, the manpower that needs to be mobilized is so huge, and the arrangement is so trivial, it has no sense of reality for people who are used to the very primitive tribal life and working mode.

Then reality showed them the possibility.

Especially those patriarchs and elders, they may have the confidence to say how good the tribe under their management is, and they also have some plans for how to survive the winter, but even if the magician can be called almighty talent, if they are required to control the eight tribes with obvious differences. A huge group of nearly 5000 people composed of tribes, even the most arrogant people dare not challenge such a limit, not to mention that the most arrogant one has already completely turned to the magician at some point.The closer the person is to the beast, the more accurate the intuition is. This sentence is true for Takla.

If it is left to the tribal leaders to arrange, I am afraid that the first day will be to dismantle the tent first, and then move collectively, and then start to clear enough open space for camping after arriving. Although a considerable part of the manpower can be allocated to catch prey and explore the environment, in the end A good result is just the first step to complete the human beings' foothold on this land.After the magician completely took over the control of manpower and material resources, people discovered how weak and weak the usual way of thinking of the tribal leaders was compared to the calm methods of the magician.The huge crowd is divided into small groups, just like diverting a pond in the forest. The magician allows people to reach the place where they should go without stagnation along the waterway he has delineated.He unfolded his plan in an orderly manner, using almost no redundant manpower, and in just one day, he brought everyone into his order.

A warlock does more than just control.Since we met, this gentle magician has always helped people solve various difficulties. He has taken such care of these weak people compared to him, and there is no tribe that has not received his favor.If it is said that when he first appeared, tribes other than the bereaved family still had different views on this lord, then now, not only in affairs, but also in spirit, this gentle and merciful black-haired magician has become The common leader of the group.

There are two ways to establish authority, wisdom or violence, and under the wholehearted obedience of the survivors, the sorcerer has neither.However, this sorcerer who has never really punished anyone, his authority is not obtained solely by the bereaved family with the highest force, he himself is a fearsome existence.Yun Shen, who has neither the leisure nor the nerve to feel, does not know that although he has always been very gentle, most people except Fan Tianlan and Takla dare not approach easily, not because of this group of people who live in In the mountains and forests, the tribes far away from mainstream civilization are so respectful and respectful, but because they have an instinctive awe of magicians.There is no need for anyone to declare specifically, anyone who has been in contact with Yunshen can feel that there is something about this black-haired young man that is completely different from them, or their world, in essence, mysterious, and almost omnipotent .He is like a star from the heavens, both desirable and disturbing because of the insurmountable difference.

This kind of delicate feeling will be left to future historians to find various words to accurately describe it.For the people in this land at present, everything in the moment is the most important thing.

In general, the work of the teams remains the same, with changes in a few places.After two days of fishing, Takla, who has completely disturbed the waters close to humans, began to lead the fishing team to gradually go deep into the lake area. The logging team continued to cut down all the trees under the age of 30 rounds within sight. , and then remove the branches and peel off the bark—especially a kind of tree with thick and tough bark, the magician asked for special care.The felled trees have to be sorted and piled up, and the branches are sawed into short sticks of similar length according to the benchmarks taken from the magician, waiting for the day when the charcoal kiln is dug.It’s just that a windproof and warm tent is convenient, but it can only meet the needs of most people and cannot fully accommodate the entire group.Although rotation can temporarily alleviate this situation, normally speaking, to solve this problem, we still need to build a new residence, and the materials are completely sufficient. The logging team on the other side of the river has already piled up the wood into a hill, and it is very powerful. Many people in the endless survivors are good at building houses with wood and thatch, but the artisans have no intention of building new houses with wood at all.

After finishing dealing with the trivial matters of dealing with mages, Yun Shen divided the land reclamation group into two groups, one group continued to expand the human territory as usual, while the other group followed the huge grid drawn this morning, and divided the land reclamation group into two groups. The land is gradually leveled.Because there were not enough tools, the progress of the excavation of the trenches and cellars that started yesterday was not fast, but more than a dozen mounds of soil were piled up in various places. Starting this morning, the soil was transported to a place near the river for placement.There is already a small team digging a canal nearby. Judging from their progress, this short canal will be completed in about half a day.A little upstream, a team was trying to drive a stake into the river.

Many strange components were also moved from Yunshen's tent nearby. They were packed in numbered cardboard boxes. After the seals were opened, various metal parts glistened in the sunlight.After confirming the flow rate of the river with buoys again, Yun Shen asked Fan Tianlan a question.

"Tianlan, in the areas you have experienced, what kind of building materials do people use to build houses?"

Fan Tianlan thought for a while and replied, "The poor build huts with wood and thatch, the lords build castles with stone and mud, and the official residences and palaces of the Central Empire use stone bricks."

"What about the survivors?"

"Wood and thatch."

Yun Shen thought for a while holding a stack of blueprints, "Then let's build a brick kiln first."

"Master Shu, what is a 'brick kiln'?" A bereaved young man who was ordered to follow Yun Shen asked suspiciously.

One of the seven artifacts - of course, Yun Shen would not answer that.Because of his work and personality, he is a person who is out of touch with fashion, so he answered very boringly, "A brick kiln is a closed building that can fire bricks. Bricks are a building material that replaces stone and wood."

"..."

"Use this material to build a winter residence?" asked Fan Tianlan, the only one who understood.

"That hasn't come yet," Yun Shen said, "We have to do other things first."

At this time, the last batch of parts had been delivered, and Yun Shen checked it again. After confirming that there were no omissions, he opened the toolbox and began to assemble some parts.This part of the work is temporarily out of the reach of others, and the people around him can only watch his movements first.Not long after, Yun Shen stopped, stood up, and handed the wrench in his hand to a bereaved youth who was closest to him.

"The next job is up to you."

"...Huh?" The young man who took the wrench was a little at a loss. He couldn't help but look at his companions, but they were also surprised.

"The process of assembling these parts I have just seen, you have seen clearly, the rest are very simple bolt connections, it is easy to get started." Yun Shen wiped the oil on his hands with a handful of dead grass, "I I will guide you next to me, so try it out.”

Now that the magician has said so, the bereaved youths who were glanced at by those black jewel-like eyes can only bite the bullet and follow the instructions to use the wrench and screwdriver to connect the completed core parts with screws of different labels. stand up.When they were finally finished, what appeared on the ground was a... metal structure that had never been in the vocabulary of this world.

"This is a 'hydraulic punching machine'." Yun Shen said.The people around showed a dazed look, Yun Shen smiled, he doesn't need these people to understand the principle and structure of this simplified version of the stamping machine in this other world, what he needs is that it will start working immediately.The new parts were sent over, and under the command of Yun Shen, those young people installed the axle, baffle, and outer ring on the weird metal wheel. It was almost noon, and the young people who were sweating profusely Finally, a waterwheel with a diameter of 3 meters was assembled.These bereaved youths are not afraid of carrying heavy things, but assembling these (relatively speaking) delicate gadgets has exhausted them.

The bottom pile in the river has also been laid, and the rest is the installation work.After a short lunch break, under Yun Shen's instructions, these young people began to toss again - the average age is 17 years old, he has no guilt in calling these precocious-looking half-grown children young.In the afternoon, the water wheel was finally connected to the punching machine through the crank and connecting rod.

At this time, a group of people had gathered by the river. People with different hair colors and skin colors opened their eyes wide, watching the river water push the blades of the waterwheel, making the huge round wheel turn, and the driven connecting rod conveyed the hydraulic power. Go to the simplified version of the punching machine, lift a heavy square stone (made by another group of survivors with a hammer while they were tossing the machine) to the apex, drop it from a height of two meters, and use wooden planks The mixed wet mud in the enclosed square well is pressed into the bottom mold. When the stone is lifted again by the rotation of the waterwheel, the pressed mold is dragged out and replaced with a new one. The mold uses a wooden knife to scrape off the spilled soil on the surface, pulls up the upper formwork, lifts the uniform mud bricks together with the entire supporting plank, and stacks them on a nearby open space.The new bottom plate is put into the bottom of the mold again, waiting for the next cycle.

"...It's really miraculous." The patriarch Nanshanshan murmured as he looked at the tireless hydraulic machinery.

"A sorcerer is a sorcerer." Li Hong smiled at his old friend.

The author has something to say: The first wave of debt amortization: Monday's copy.

Yunshen Tongzi is not a mechanical design major, but he studied engineering in college, and he has audited across departments, and has been exposed to a lot of machinery in his work. There are ideas, parts and such that are already prepared, so it is feasible to assemble a simple version of the stamping machine in a day using only components from the other side of the earth.
