Broad World

Chapter 61 Comprehensive Construction

After sending away Jasuo's fleet, Henry began to teach these selected young druids the knowledge and the teachings of his own sect, and then he began to let them often perform natural summoning ceremonies in the valley. In just half a month, two apprentices who could use the zero-level spell: "Cure Slight Injury" appeared, which made Henry very happy. Soon another half month passed, and Amy used the message technique to report that Cagan had sent a batch of weapons and armor for him to go back and deal with.

Flying across the strait from Emerald Island to Hart Island, Henry found the dwarf who was waiting for him. After landing from the sky, he said to Cagan, "My friend, I heard that you have brought a batch of weapons and armor?"

The dwarf puffed out his chest proudly. "That's right! It's definitely top-notch steel and first-class craftsmen. I have built about a hundred sets of tall armor for barbarians, and about 500 sets of ordinary armor. Weapons mainly include three hundred long swords, one hundred crossbows, Four hundred daggers, and a thousand spear points. Finally, four hundred steel-clad wooden shields and double helmets."

Henry took out a long sword and swung it vigorously a few times. He felt that the weight was moderate, the material was hard, and it was quite sharp. He looked at the armor again and found that the outermost armor for barbarians was made of steel plates, the middle was sandwiched with chain armor, and the innermost layer was a thick layer of leather armor. The three-layer sandwich is both strong and resistant to considerable impact.

"It's a perfect design, these armors are so well made Kegan." He admired.

After hearing this, the dwarf's beard rose up. "Of course, these armors cannot be worn by ordinary soldiers. But it is suitable for these tall and strong northern barbarians."

Henry nodded and said to Amy who was standing aside: "Go and ask Asembu and his soldiers to stop patrolling and come over to collect the armor, and let Captain Hawke choose some strong men from the residents as soldiers." Amy After receiving the master's order, he turned and left to find the barbarian leader and the old captain.

The dwarf scratched his head and continued to say to Henry: "The output of steel blocks is very large now, but we don't have enough manpower to make them into finished products. Are you going to sell some?"

Henry shook his head. "Build a warehouse to store unused steel blocks. We don't sell materials but finished products. Are there enough ordinary workers there?"

Cagan smiled and said: "Of course it is enough. I have built a lot of transfer rooms near the mine for miners and blacksmiths to rest. If you have nothing to do, I will go back first. There is still a furnace of steel smelting there. "

"Then go ahead, I'll wait for Amy to come back here." Henry finished speaking and watched Cagan leave with the others.

It didn't take long for Amy to come back with more than seventy barbarians. She said to Henry: "Master, I brought Asembu and his people. Admiral Hawke said that he needs a day to select personnel."

Henry smiled at Amy. "Good job. Now go and do your work. I'll call you if I have something to do."

The leader of the barbarians saluted with his right hand on his left chest and asked, "My lord, why did you ask us to come?"

Henry pointed to the armor on the car. "Those armors are specially prepared for you, and you will wear them on patrol in the future." Asenbu and his men cheered, and they rushed over to put them on. Soon a group of more than seventy barbarian hoplites appeared in front of Henry. Henry smiled looking at this mighty and majestic army. Although their discipline is not very good, they are absolutely qualified as fighters.

He said to the barbarian leader: "With these armor islands, most of the people and beasts will not threaten your safety. Now send the rest of the car to the warehouse."

"Okay, I'll send them there right away." As he spoke, Abson began to direct his companions to start pushing the cart. Henry went to Robert to inquire about the development of the underground guild, and then prepared to go home and take a rest. When he came to the door of the house, he saw his younger sister sitting in the yard reading a book, his mother was busy preparing lunch, and Shi Kodi was sitting by the window calculating the expenditure of various projects. He walked to the side of his sister and found that what the little girl was reading was a book of "Mathematics" written by scribing based on his memory before time travel.

Lina stood up when her brother came back and said, "Brother, this book is so difficult to understand. I have been reading it for several days and can only understand the first few pages."

Henry touched her little head. "My sister, you are already very smart. You can't just read this book by yourself. You'd better start reading from the bottom shelf in front of the bookshelf." The girl nodded half-understanding.

After bluffing with his mother, he came into the house and saw Shikodi sitting in front of the window looking at a lot of expense reports. Since she came to the island, she has assumed the duty of a wife and started to help Henry with various accounts. service. Henry walked over slowly and put his hands on her shoulders and pressed them a few times, and then his hands began to caress down dishonestly.

Shi Kodi said without looking back: "If you don't want my whole morning efforts to be wasted, you'd better stop."

Henry stopped the next action in embarrassment and said to his wife: "Why are you still calculating these messy expenses?"

Shi Kodi pressed her head. "A nobleman must be well aware of all the income and expenditure of his territory, otherwise there will be a big deficit or even bankruptcy. Although we are rich now, we can't spend it randomly."

Henry smiled and massaged his wife's head for a while. "From then on, all the expenses of the territory will be taken care of by you, and I will concentrate on educating my apprentices. After the construction of the territory is completed in a few months, I will go to Gaolibao to find my teacher and start building my own. Mage Tower."

Shikodi lay on the back of the chair. "The Mage Tower is a huge expense, but it brings a lot of benefits. I heard that you have already started training Druid apprentices?"

Henry nodded. "Yes, two of the eighteen students can cast zero-level magic. They all have potential, and it's only a matter of time before they become druids."

Shi Kodi stood up abruptly and said to Henry: "Really! That's great! We can train our own mages after the mage tower is built, and the foundation of the leadership will be stabilized by then."

Henry kissed his wife. "I'll go to the study for a while, don't be too busy and be careful to tire yourself out."

Shikodi hugged her husband. "Go and do your work, just leave it to me." After walking out of the room, he quickly came to his study. There are densely packed books on a large number of bookshelves inside. These are all copied by him every day with scribing skills, some of which he has seen in Tyrantyr's library, and some of them have been seen by Master Habasser. The most important thing is some knowledge on the earth, including physics, chemistry, geometry, biology, mechanical manufacturing, aircraft, steam engine, internal combustion engine, etc., which he has learned or read on the Internet.

He took out a piece of parchment and used a copying technique on the ink and quill pen, and the quill pen stuck to the ink and rustled and began to write. As long as he is free every day, he will organize the knowledge in his mind into a book and write it into a book. After several months of hard work, the bookshelves here are now full of books in different categories, and in terms of number, they have surpassed the two great masters. After his mage tower is completed, all the books here will be transferred there. He is now an eleventh-level mage, and a copying technique can make the quill automatically write for nearly two hours. Soon a book made of golems was finished, and Henry threaded the paper and bound it into a volume and put it on the bookshelf behind.

In one afternoon, he added ten more books to his study, when Lily's voice sounded outside the door. She knocked on the door and shouted, "Henry, you've been in the study all afternoon. Now it's time to come out and finish your meal."

After Henry opened the door, he said to his mother: "Okay mom, I'm going to eat now." After seeing Henry coming out, she took her son into the hall, and Henry found that the high-level executives of the territory had arrived tonight.

He walked to the main seat, sat down and asked, "Why are you so organized today? Did you discuss it in advance?"

Hawke smiled. "That's not the case, my count. We all have our own affairs and need to ask you for instructions. I want to ask how many soldiers you need in total?"

Henry thought about it. "Currently four hundred people are needed. The barbarians are good fighters, but their methods of maintaining law and order are too rough. I heard that more than 30 people were injured by them last month."

Asenbu touched his bald head and argued, "My lord, it's because they are too weak. We didn't use any weapons at all, just punched a few times."

Robert glanced at him. "Ordinary civilians can't stand your sandbag-sized fist. I remember you beat a wolf to death with your fist outside the city, right?"

The orc warrior nodded. "Yes, I saw it with my own eyes. He beat the poor wolf's mouth full of blood with two blows. It was cruel."

Asembu turned his head and yelled at Vaughan: "If I remember correctly, you ate the most meat at that time! You still have the face to say it."

Henry pressed his forehead hard. "Okay, stop arguing. Hawke, you will be responsible for selecting 400 people tomorrow. Asembu, you will be responsible for training their fighting skills. I hope to see these people start their duties in the city in a month."

"Understood," Hawke and the barbarian leader replied at the same time.

Henry glanced at Asimbu. "Do you really understand? I don't want to hear about someone being crippled or dead from overtraining in a few days. Got it?"

"Don't worry, I will treat them very gently." The barbarian leader wiped his sweat with his hands, that's what he thought just now.

Henry turned his head and said to the old captain: "How are the houses in Hawke's city and the villages outside our city?"

Hawke thought for a while. "The construction of the city on Hart Island is basically completed, only the city wall is missing. Dozens of villages have been built, and large tracts of farmland have been reclaimed and planted with potatoes. Most slaves have been pardoned and become citizens. The proportion of about 100 people has been distributed. I have also checked Emerald Island. People in several settlements have also built houses and reclaimed large fields. The spices you planted and spawned have also begun to bloom in large areas. It worked out."
