Chapter 132 From Manpower to Hydraulic Power

Matthew continued to train the militia, and Linn followed Farr to the edge of the canal. There were three small waterwheels built here, which were driven by the water flow and kept rotating. Two rotating shafts were installed on them.

The rotating shaft is connected to multiple wooden boards. These wooden boards are dislocated, and there is a rotating shaft in the middle.

It is the joint work of multiple rotating shafts that keeps the wooden board rotating, and then drives the textile machine at the end to work.

The textile machine is also completely different from before. In the past, there was only one parallel spindle, and the spinning thread came out from the top. Now, eight vertical spindles are directly added. Not only does the thread not get tangled, but the operation is also quite stable.

Negi is debugging the machine to make sure there is no problem.

Farr said excitedly: "Sir, you said before that the textile machine does not need to be limited to one spindle. After many tests, Naji and I can install eight spindles. This is the most stable state and basically will not happen. The problem is that if more than eight are installed, it can run, but the problem of wire tangles will occur every once in a while.

You said that you can add a foot pedal to free up your hands. After we added it, it was indeed faster. Later, we thought, since the foot can step on to increase power, why not use a water wheel instead, and the two of us used it. The water wheel is used to connect the textile machine. At the beginning, it is easy to control the strength poorly, causing the textile machine to be too fast and the spinning thread to be easily torn.

Later, we carried out the transformation and used a rotating shaft. The wooden rotating shaft was particularly easy to damage and could not accurately control the speed. You asked Kiel to send an iron rotating shaft. We discussed with him and re-modified the rotating shaft and then installed it. on top. "

Farr pointed to a wooden stick next to the rotating shaft, "This is the handle that controls the speed. If you want to go faster, you just need to turn it this way."

As he spoke, he turned the handle, and the shaft connected to it suddenly tightened. As a series of sounds sounded, the waterwheel rotated faster, and then the spinning speed of the textile machine also increased.

"If you want to go slower, turn this way."

Linn was shocked as she watched Farr explain non-stop.

He just provided ideas. According to Linn's idea, Farr and Negi would at most update the textile machine and add spindles, but they did not expect that they would directly upgrade it.

From traditional human-powered looms to water-powered looms, the scale can be completely expanded.

"Sir, this is the loom we made. You are really amazing."

Farr and Negi both praised them from the bottom of their hearts. They are carpenters, but not in the traditional sense. They accept new things very quickly, and Negi also has a very powerful father, which keeps his thinking from being rigid. .

Through cooperation, two people can produce many things, but compared to the Lord, they are completely incomparable.

The two of them never thought about changing the spindle or making a waterwheel. They were completely perfected based on the lord's ideas.

Lin En didn't say anything about their praise. After all, he was someone who had mastered modern information, but he still relied on them to understand the specific technology.

First Matthew's words, then the two of them's masterpiece, Linn suddenly realized something.

people oriented!

As long as people's abilities are fully utilized, unexpected results can be achieved.

"You two did a good job. You've been tested, right?"

"Yes!" Farr nodded.

"Now we are developing towards the Rhine River. It will be opened soon. At that time, a large number of waterwheels will be built on the river bank to weave in batches. You should be prepared."

Farr and Negi both nodded excitedly. They wanted to see what they made be widely used.

Lin En was worried about the dark cultists before, but now he is in a good mood and said: "Then I will name you as the person in charge of this construction plan. If it is completed smoothly, I will give you a reward."

Negi's eyes lit up.

After the lord left, Farr came over and said, "Nagy, this may be an opportunity, you have to seize it."

Naji snorted, "I know, I will work hard. No matter whether adults can help me find my father, I will do it well. My father told me that no matter what you do, you must like it. If you don't like it, , then give up as soon as possible.”

Far patted him on the shoulder and said, "Your father is a powerful man. If it is really possible, I would also like to meet him."

Whether it was making the waterwheel before or the textile machine this time, Naji was a big help, and he came up with many new ideas.

"People, people"

Lin En walked on the way back, muttering constantly.

"What are you talking about?" A voice suddenly came from behind, trying to pat Linn with one hand.

Like a prophet, Linn moved a step to the left. Harvey didn't expect that he would dodge and stumbled, almost falling on his face.

"Miss you!"

Harvey immediately put on an I-know-you expression, "I know, you must be thinking about women, right?"

His expression changed, "Bah, you nobles are all the same. You only miss women all day long. You really don't know what good women are."

Linn glanced at him, "That's because you're still young."

"I'm not young anymore!"

"Okay, okay, you're not young." Lin En was not in the mood to argue with him here, "I'm still thinking about how to find more people."

"Who are you looking for?" Harvey stopped teasing and asked seriously.

"Civilian knights, wild mage, or other spell casters can do it." Linn said casually.

"What are you doing with them?"

"Of course it is useful. We need more people in the territory so that we can be more energetic." Lin En came back to his senses. "Why should I explain this to you? How can you, a little kid like you, understand this?"

"I don't understand why." Harvey put his hands on his hips and hummed, "If there are more serfs, they can help the nobles do more work. If there are more spellcasters, they can protect the safety of the nobles. Moreover, they can also Will study some weird things.”

Harvey suddenly paused, and then said cautiously: "Have you offended someone recently? They want to come and kill you, so you are looking for these people."

Lynn: "."

I really don’t know how this little melon grew, but what he said is not unreasonable. The dark cultists are indeed a threat to him.

"Yes, you are right."

Harvey hesitated and stopped, not even noticing that Linn had walked away. When he reacted, he immediately chased after him.

"I can help you. I know where to find these people."

"Oh, you know?" Linn looked suspicious.

Harvey immediately became angry, "Don't treat me like a child. I have been hanging out in various pubs for I don't know how many years. I grew up in the sewers. Of course I know more than you. As long as you give me five .For ten gold coins, I can find you a lot of knights and spellcasters."

Lin En stopped and said seriously: "This is no joke, and I asked these people to come to Ashes Town because I hope they can settle here. If I find evil people and destroy the order of the town, you have to It’s a big responsibility.”

Harvey frowned, "I know, and I think you are much scarier than them. Anyway, I am only responsible for finding people. When the time comes, you will be in charge."

Lin En looked at him, laughed, and rubbed his head, "Okay, just do it. I'll give you twelve gold coins. The more you find, the better. When are you going to set off?"

"Give me the money and I'll leave now."

Linn took him back to the castle, took out twelve gold coins and gave them to him, "Let's go, I hope I can get good news from you."

Seeing that he gave him gold coins so directly, Harvey couldn't help but ask: "Aren't you afraid that I will take the money and run away?"

"If you didn't ask, I might still be scared. Since you asked, it means you won't run away. I still believe you."

Harvey stuffed the gold coins into his pocket and rushed out, only the sound came through.

"Don't worry, I can still tell which one is more important, taking money once or taking money all the time."

Linn smiled and shook his head. Because of this, he wouldn't worry about Harvey not coming back.

On the west side of Ashes Town, two serfs were looking around.

A serf said: "Why do you ask us to come here every day?"

"I don't know. Anyway, I just said I would go back and tell the adults if I found something. But it's been several days and I haven't found anything."

The two of them were arranged here by the housekeeper a few days ago. It is said that it was the order of the lord. He just said that if he found anything wrong or there was any trace, he would report it. However, it had been several days and there was nothing wrong.

The two of them did not dare to go deep into the Sunset Forest, fearing that they would encounter monsters, so they kept searching in shallow areas.

"I really want to go back. They can do so many jobs to earn work points, but we can't earn them here at all."

"Who says it's not the case, but this is your Lord's order, so let's just follow it."

The two of them were chatting and observing the surrounding situation.

Suddenly, they saw the trees in front of them withered. The two looked at each other and walked over.

A large number of trees here are withered, and some white flames are burning.

"Is this what the lord said is wrong?"

"It must be, let's go back quickly and tell the adults."

In the castle.

After Linn learned about the situation from the mouths of the two serfs, he immediately rushed to the place where they found the withered trees. Judging from the traces, this should be the place where the dark cultists fought with the clergy.

Looking at the panel in front of him, Linn felt confused.

"Mission 7: There are some strange traces on the west side of the town. Exploration and reward unexpected visitors. (Completed)"

This task has lasted for a long time and has not been completed until now, so what will be the reward?
