Chapter thirty-six hot
John Old has lost the mood to argue with William about the high salary William gave to the villagers. He devoted all his energy to the identification and supervision of the limestone or clay sent by the villagers.
If the weight is not enough, the money will be deducted!
If the clay is not red enough, the money will be deducted!
If the basket is not full enough, the money will be deducted!
...
Old John tried every means to save money for William, but he still couldn't avoid the clay piled up higher and the limestone was getting more and more. It was still impossible to avoid William's Poole copper coins being less and less day by day.
In ten days, William paid more than eight pis gold coins in his vault.
Even though the villagers bought baskets and dustpans from William because of their needs, their income was far from enough to offset the expenses.
This made Old John's face darker and his mood worse and worse.
But at this time, something that must have happened finally happened!
A large number of scattered baskets appeared in the small village of Nisse.
Because of the long-term load of soil or limestone, especially limestone, the baskets have been moved around and over, which has been too heavy, resulting in a loose structure, which can finally be unable to support it and it has broken up.
The baskets in the village have been bought by the crazy villagers, and the nearby golden silk grass has also been pulled out. We can only wait for the spring next year to bloom. But at this time, without golden silk grass, there will naturally be no new baskets.
This means that when the last batch of baskets are also destroyed, the villagers will be unable to continue to "moving bricks"!
This matter was very serious and the villagers were very anxious, so they reported to William.
William was also very sad that the amount of clay and limestone today could not meet the construction of walls!
He needs more clay and limestone, so the work of "moving bricks" cannot be stopped, not only can it be stopped, but it also has higher efficiency!
William had been focusing on training the guards before, and he had put all the work of clay and limestone for Old John, so he didn't know much.
When he saw the amount of clay and limestone transported from the village, William was desperate.
At this speed, even if the basket problem is solved, can the wall be built in the year of the monkey and the horse month?
So William locked himself in the dirt house, thought hard for a night, and finally came up with a solution.
He found the carpenter of the village, Clever Shoudun, and called the old carpenter Charles. In the collection of Clever Shoudun, he selected a log with a diameter of about 60 cm, and cut down a section into a wooden wheel, making the wooden wheel as flat as possible.
A round hole was dug in the middle of the wooden wheel and a hard wooden shaft was stuffed into it. The two sides of the wooden shaft were spliced with wooden boards, and the junction was nailed and fixed with iron nails. The iron products bought from Patras were just used.
At the other end of the car plate, connect a stick to serve as a handlebar and also fix it with iron nails.
Several beams were nailed on the axle to surround the three sides of the car, so that the goods could be held back without letting them fall off the car.
In this way, a rough and simple wheelbarrow was completed, and it took less than a candle to burn.
When the results were presented to Modun and Charles, both of them looked surprised, but they still didn't believe that such a wheelbarrow could be used on a daily basis!
Because in their perception, the car that needs to carry goods must have at least two wheels, and many of them are four wheels in order to allow the cargo to run steadily.
If a wheel is not carrying much, the whole wheelbarrow will fall apart.
Faced with the suspicion of the two carpenters, William spoke directly with the facts and placed four baskets of limestone on the wheelbarrow, allowing the elderly and weak Charles to pull the wheelbarrow around the village.
Charles pulled up the wheelbarrow with a nervous mood. The wheels ran over the ground of Nisse Village and made a creaking sound, attracting the attention of many villagers.
Charles' original fantasy of being out of breath and even being weak in his hands and feet did not happen. He did not spend much effort at all, and he calmly pulled four baskets of limestone to wander around the village casually, just like the floats held by the nobles in Sel. If he hadn't heard the unpleasant creaking sound, it would have felt better.
It's just that when you go up the slope, it's more laborious. But this is just a small and insignificant problem.
The villagers all understand.
There is no doubt that the emergence of the wheelbarrow was sought after by the villagers of the small village of Nisse.
Even the stupidest and most stingy villagers see its potential.
It is more labor-saving and faster. You can run two to three more trips after a trip before.
It carries more, four times the previous one.
And the gains brought about will be unimaginable before.
William directly made a charter with Motton and Charles. The wheelbarrow was sold for three francs. He personally collected 1 francs and fifty Poole copper coins. This was the intellectual property remuneration of the inventor, while Charles and Motton each had fifty Poole copper coins, which was the remuneration of the working people, and the remaining fifty Poole copper coins were the material fee.
The iron nails were provided by William. Although the dosage was very small, William still pulled ten of the fifty Poole copper coins.
The remaining forty Pull copper coins are the cost of wood.
The rules have been set, so start working hard!
Charles and Motton worked together to create a 15-wheelbarrow wheel in just a few days.
The villagers have made a lot of money from William during this period, and each household still has a deposit of several francs and silver coins.
As soon as the fifteen wheelbarrows were completed, they were "boldly" bought by the villagers guarding the door. Then, in the jealous eyes of other villagers, they pulled the wheelbarrows to the foot of the Cordillera Mountain with pride to pull clay, or to the caves in the dark forest to fill limestone.
When other villagers worked hard to return to the village with a basket of limestone, the "rich people" who owned wheelbarrows had already traveled back and forth twice, diligent and even three times, each of which started with four baskets. Moreover, the "rich people" were easily pulled, and the damage to the basket was minimal, because the weight was borne by the wooden boards and wheels.
When I could only get one Puer copper coin, other villagers had already got eight Puer copper coins, and even more than 12 Puer copper coins.
The villagers will compare themselves.
The result of the comparison was that the villagers who had no cars were crazy. They did not dare to be arrogant to Lord William, but they surrounded the house of the carpenter Shumodun.
Modon and Charles were immediately trapped in painful joy, and had almost no moment of rest to "serve the people"!
The few logs that Modun originally stored were completely consumed, but he only made 10 additional wheelbarrows.
Ten wheelbarrows were bought in an instant, and some villagers even conducted a full martial arts campaign at the door of Modun’s house in order to buy wheelbarrows!
Finally, the guards were attracted.
The guards were wearing a uniform uniform, holding a wooden shield in their left hand and a long sword in their right hand. Just standing there, a terrifying power rose.
The villagers no longer dared to see him as a teenager, especially Jacques Porter.
The two villagers who were fighting were taken away by the guards without any resistance and brought to William.
After hearing this, William couldn't help but shake his head, what a thing!
However, William did not build his territory into a place to allocate according to the quarrels.
He directly asked the guards to punish them according to the first rule of the Decas Territory, and used a whip of ten times and showed them for one day. He also added a penalty regulation and fined 1 franc silver coin.
If whipping is painful in the body, then the fine is painful in their hearts.
Especially after the heart and body were hurt, the wheelbarrow did not come into their hands, but was obtained by another lucky villager. This was to make matters worse and put salt on the wound!
The other villagers were worried about it, but they soon devoted themselves to the great cause of making money.
The 25 wheelbarrows were unable to meet the growing cultural and material needs of the village of Nessey, so the work of Metton and Charles continued.
Without the logs, they used 40 Puer copper coins as employment fees and hired several villagers to cut trees into the forest, only cutting big trees with a breast diameter of more than 50 cm.
It takes half a day for a person to cut down a tree, and clean up the branches, so most of the day is spent on it.
With the logs, Charles and Motton's work could continue, and the new wheelbarrow was made and sold to the villagers.
William can draw 1 franc silver coin for each wheelbarrow, and ten wheelbarrows have a pizza gold coin, all of which are collected by Old John.
The high income made Old John smile rarely.
But soon, the limestone and clay that were constantly transporting away the large amount of copper and silver coins in his hand, and the old John's face sank again.
Ten days later, almost every household in the small village of Nisse had a wheelbarrow, some of which were relatively wealthy, even owning two and three wheelbarrows.
Every day, there are endless "cars" that go to and from the foot of Cordillera, the small village of Nisse, and the dark forest cave. The creaking sounds are endless, and the sounds of the guards are occasionally mixed in the middle.
The villagers' expressions were energetic, while the expressions of Old John were black.
The limestone that was constantly transported has piled up into a small hill, and the clay piled at the entrance and end of the village is even higher than the other.
