All of the snow covering Wessas and Fort Comoy has melted.
The city is also slowly returning to its former liveliness. There are many craftsmen wandering around every day on the streets, holding blueprints and tools in their hands, and they have to record them from time to time.
There was still a bit of white left on Parshan, interspersed among the vast emerald green, and then disappeared as the weather gradually warmed.
When the craftsmen were fully prepared to participate in the competition for the president, Valk and Fernandi began to lead the soldiers into the small valley on the northwest side of Mount Parr to mine.
The veins are unexpectedly long.
There are a large number of black mines, which are spread throughout the small valleys and extend to the depths of the mountains... It is estimated that in the next few decades, there is no need to worry about the cost and consumption of black mines.
For the time being, Fernandi and Valk sent someone to dig out a passage suitable for entry, about ten meters wide and sixty meters long.
The black ore resources dug out are already very rich and countless.
They then loaded the ore dug into the warehouse they built, and sent people to watch over them carefully, waiting for everything to be ready before they could be used in the reconstruction of Weissus and Fort Comoy.
Xia Zoe has mainly read books on "urban planning and management" recently.
The library produced by the Buddhist system is indeed very versatile and covers a very wide range.
Some urban planning books even detail the spatial layout of a city, the arrangement of streets that connect in all directions, and what kind of public or infrastructure the city should contain.
Xia Zoe actually already had a general idea in his mind about how to rebuild Weissus and Fort Komoy.
After all, some of the facilities and individual buildings he wants to build are issues that the current craftsmen may not even consider.
The reason why Xia Zuoyi held a competition to compete for the president of the artisan guild was that he wanted to select a person with a flexible mind, ability and talent to be the leader of the construction in the next five years.
I want to see what level the drawings they designed will be at.
A better choice will be made by comparison.
It is also more convenient for him to add the required public or infrastructure into it.
Xia Zuoyi: After all, I, as a Party A, do whatever I want :)
In the future, there will be more places to use the craftsmen's guild.
Time flies so fast, it seems like spring is coming in the blink of an eye.
It's sunny today, a rare sunny day.
Xia Zoe took Judit, Gibran and others to enter the northwest side of Pal Mountain again, and looked for a suitable location for the castle to be built next to Pal Lake.
He wanted a castle facing the lake.
When you open the window, you can see the beautiful mountains and lakes, wake up in the warm sunshine listening to the melodious birdsong in the morning, boats roaming in the lake, beautiful water birds...
There will also be pastures next to the castle, surrounded by fences, raising horses, cattle, sheep...
It is best to cover the area of planting, picking, breeding and grazing, self-sufficient and fully functional.
The environment in the mountains is quiet, the air is fresh, and the scenery is beautiful.
Snowballs and briquettes can move freely in the forest.
These two little milk tigers have grown a lot now, from the size of two palms of adults at the beginning, to as long as half an arm now.
Besides sleeping and eating every day, my favorite thing to do is to run around behind Xia Zuoyi, ooh, ooh, ooh.
Xia Zuoyi is rare.
Not only did he move the nest of the two little milk tigers to his bedroom, but he also planned to put them on the bed and sleep together.
After several attempts by Judit to persuade him, there was no significant effect. The little earl refused to listen, so he reluctantly acquiesced to his wayward behavior.
This visit to Pal Lake is also a spring outing.
Toby and Kelly followed, and the two knights led a team of soldiers to protect them.
They lay long cloths on the grass by the lake and sat on the ground.
"Ow, ooh."
Two chubby little milk tigers pulled Xia Zuoyi's arms, and stretched out their thick little claws to reach the meat strips in his hands.
Xia Zoe tactically leaned back to avoid them.
Judit was sitting behind Xia Zoe and guarding, afraid that he would be knocked down by two heavy and stocky little tigers.
"I can't eat any more. Look at your tummy's bulge, and baby fat isn't so long."
Xia Zuoyi ruthlessly asked Judit to take away the meat strips, sighed while touching the fluffy belly of the snow balls and briquettes, and said to himself, "098, they are delicious."
098: [Host, this is a normal situation. Snowballs and briquettes are different from ordinary tigers. They will grow into a large body in the future, and their food intake will naturally be amazing.]
[098 suggested that the host, after the castle is built and moved in, can let them hunt freely in the mountains and forests.]
Xia Zoey hummed.
This is also what he considers, the mountains and forests are the most suitable places for snow balls and briquettes.
Seeing that the two little milk tigers really couldn't eat the meat strips, they stumbled away on the grass with a whimper.
They ran to Fernandi and Valk's side at some point, stopped naively, and looked at them curiously with their black eyes.
Valk couldn't help smiling, and when he tried to reach out, the snowballs and briquettes bared their small fangs and made a still slightly milky cry.
"Ow! Ow! Ow!"
Valk's laughter deepened, perseveringly, he continued to stretch out his hand to the mouth of the snowball, but quickly retracted when the snowball was about to bite.
Repeatedly, it's quite unpleasant.
The briquettes followed and bit them a few times, probably feeling that they couldn't bite, so they swayed their little tail and lay to the side.
After lying down for a while, it turned over, and then began to lazily spread out its belly again. The fluffy little belly rose and fell with its breathing, very regular, and its four claws were curled up, as if it was about to fall asleep.
At this moment, a small wildflower that seemed to have just budded and was budding was slowly handed to its nose.
The branches swayed gently with the breeze.
The briquettes were involuntarily attracted to his eyes, and he rolled over and got up, his eyes fixed on him, his chubby little tail no longer swayed, his buttocks were gradually raised, and his front claws clenched the grass, looking like he was ready to go.
The next moment, it pounced on the wildflowers.
"Ow."
The briquettes turned around in a circle in a daze, but didn't jump.
Fernandi held the wildflowers in one hand, the corners of his mouth could not help twitching, and his eyes were extraordinarily soft.
This weather, this mountain, this water... all make people feel very relaxed.
Xia Zuoyi put his hands behind his back and swayed jiojio leisurely.
After turning his head to look around, he pointed to a direction and said, "Judit, how is the castle built in that location?"
"It's not too far from the lake but it's not too close, to avoid moisture, the surrounding area is not only empty but flat, and a large pasture can be built in the rear right..."
Then delineate the planting area, breeding area, vegetables, fruits, herbs...
Judit said: "Of course it's good, Lord Count, but can you leave an area around the castle for me?"
Xia Zuoyi nodded: "Yes, but what do you want to do? Judit."
"I want to plant a large field of bright and beautiful roses for the count, and let the roses representing Desinia grow with you."
Hearing this, Gibran couldn't help but say: "Rose is indeed very suitable for Lord Earl."
"That's a good idea, Steward Judit, can I come and help?"
Judit smiled and nodded, of course there was no problem.
Kelly and Toby are also excited to join in.
"… "
Xia Zuoyi was so shy that he didn't even want to shake the little jiojio.
After a moment of leisure, returning to the castle is another busy time.
two months later.
Under the leadership of the knights, the craftsmen gathered again in the open space outside the castle to hand over the blueprints.
There is a person at the front who is in charge of recording something.
When it was Conrad's turn, the recorder asked, "Have you written your name on your own drawing?"
Conrad nodded hurriedly: "It's written, my lord."
Judit said: "Then next, tell me your name, whether you have formed a team with others, and how many drawings have you drawn?"
Conrad said his name and hesitated for the second question: "My lord, may I ask my two sons to help me as a team?"
Judit glanced at Darren and Diff, who were poking their brains behind him, and replied, "Are they involved in the detailed design of the city plan? If they are involved, it is a team effort."
Conrad hurriedly said: "Yes, my lord, it is teamwork. There are a total of twenty-two drawings."
Darren participated in a small part of the design, and sometimes is responsible for computing some edge data, etc.
As for Diff, follow them to run around the streets or the city, make suggestions on some issues, and often help to assist in drawing.
The two sons are very talented, serious and sensible.
Conrad trusted them.
Judit recorded them one by one, and then said: "Follow the knights after six days, and the results will be announced at that time. Please wait patiently for the time being when you go home."
"Yes, my lord."
Conrad and his two sons went back excited and uneasy.
in six days.
Xia Zoe invited Fernandi, Valk and others to look over it together.
They first eliminated those drawings that were unqualified at first sight, the drawings were messy, unclear, or the design was unreasonable.
Finally, check the detailed and well-designed drawings slowly, and choose according to whether it conforms to the reasonable layout and planning of the city, whether the functions are complete, and whether there are new ideas.
Xia Zuoyi pulled out a drawing and said, "What do you think of this planning and design?"
This drawing not only clearly divides the various areas in the two cities, but also highlights the necessity of drainage facilities in Weissus, and gives solutions, taking into account the safety principles.
And a short and convenient road was designed between Weissus and Fort Comoy.
Compared to other drawings, this design is really good.
Otherwise, it will not stand out in the hands of Xia Zuoyi.
After Judit and others read it, they also nodded in agreement.
Xia Zuoyi said, "That's him."
The author has something to say:
Zoe Xia: Are you ready to go bald :)
