The city is crowded with people busy with their livelihoods, wearing the gray straw raincoat, like chess pieces that cannot be found in the cool rain, and like hard-working ants.

On the gray-white roof in the distance, there were a few wandering pigeons standing, as if they were full of thoughts, making the rain even more dull. But when the rain comes in summer, it will be completely different when it stops. In a blink of an eye, the dark clouds will disappear.

The clear and green sky is like a carefully polished sapphire mirror, reflecting the colorful pastoral areas, like a colorful oil painting. The white and green jade is a vegetable with some water droplets.

What has turned slightly yellow is a field shining by the scorching sun. The pollen of the bare wheat has escaped the wetness and floated in the field, like a light smoke.

The quiet heat evaporates on the earth, shining light, swaying leisurely and gently, like fish swimming in the stream. At the same time, the rising water vapor is like a wisp of blue smoke or white mist. A contrasting wave is formed around the heat.

In the distance, the roofs of buildings that blocked their view kept flashing with white or red glowing reflections. This was the water droplets left by the new rain, as bright as diamonds under the sunlight.

The entire city of Poatu has entered the atmosphere of early summer. The trees are shaking with branches and leaves, and the climate begins to be hot at noon. The boys and girls who are idle have already put on cool summer outfits.

But the busiest porters, shirtless, only drooped thick linen mats in the load-bearing parts. These guys who looked rigid, stupid and silly and shiny, formed a very strong variance with their cheerful and childish faces!

On this afternoon, just after the light rain at night, the dust on the road was not rising, and the branches of the locust trees, whose leaves were not yet falling, were green and dripping, which meant that the first summer was clear and the rain was clear.

Soon, the little guys who turned into mud monkeys were pulled back into the house with their ears amid their mother's rolling pin and scolding. The adults were busy with their own friends, and even these children were not idle. They had their own tasks - either to be responsible for housework, and older boys would often follow their elders to take action.

Boxes of goods, under the record and command of the warehouse manager, were moved into different carriages in different categories. The carriages will gather into a huge convoy and set off early tomorrow morning. This may be a hundred miles away, and the difficulties and obstacles on the road will be difficult to tell outsiders. However, the melody of Dada's horseshoes and the axle sounds of the wheels will bring endless cash flow.

The circulation of material not only brings money benefits, but also the continuous stream of raw materials and commodities exported. It not only brings material wealth to the territory, but also a lot of labor consumes the people's physical strength, and their hope for the future makes them more spiritually enterprising.

As orders become increasingly severe, the management and installation in the territory has improved slightly. The quarrels and the number of fights between neighbors have shown a straight decline. However, drinking at night has become more and more common. The security team led by Borham has just breathed a sigh of relief for a few days and is about to start facing its new challenges.

The drunkard who is half drunk can be said to be the best target for the Golden Fingers. It seems that there is such a bad guy every day, and he can't find his own purse when paying for the alcohol.

Of course, there are also some pickpockets who are not shocked enough to fail, and have suffered physical frictions far more than before. Alcohol can easily cause people to lose their minds. In addition, personal experiences or influences during this period, alcoholics begin to become a little excited. The number of gold fingers that cannot be used to get a slack due to large-scale soft tissue contusion can even exceed the total of the previous two months.

Fortunately, the shadows under the lights cannot have any major impact. The atmosphere of the entire territory is still thriving. The attack more than two months ago caused a considerable shadow on the residents of the territory.

But now, the burden has been left behind by the people. The people are forgetful, and sometimes they are really not wrong at all. However, the effect of correct guidance here plays an important role.

Groups of migrant workers wearing short brown and beautiful faces were busy carrying pickaxes and loads on the construction site. In an instant, the sound of chiseling stones, the shouts of **********, the sound of labor trumpets, and the symphony of heroes.

The golden threads shining from the scorching sun radiated from the corners of the house, and the rainbow after the rain shone on the strong body of migrant workers. In the light of the golden light, you can clearly see them chiseling out rocks, laying foundations, building bricks and tiles, building straw shapes, setting up cloud ladders, and raising pillars.

They stirred sweat in the seemingly primitive mud, transformed their muscles into load-bearing stone pillars, and cast the stability of the foundation with the condensation of will. Their radiant figures were cast on the adjacent buildings, and their crystal sweat was left on the construction site.

This busy construction site scene is the rebuilt civilian area of ​​Poitu. After two months of construction, the original streets have been widened, and the bluestone road full of nostalgia has become the current stone road.

The construction process of automatic westward has made the houses that have been completed early and the focus of residents' attention.

The original long street is curved and narrow, and the streets are mostly old wooden houses. Their scattered roofs and their unbearable shapes, and only the intimate scale is the memory of the home.

The current three-story building has bright colors of white walls and green tiles, as well as three-dimensional made of earth and stone, which gives people a sense of momentum. The most important thing is that the road is wider, and the originally cold and humid atmosphere is blown away by the flowing breeze early.

After the gloomy atmosphere was swept away, the entire neighborhood felt a new feeling compared to the past. It was like a young entrepreneur who had been trying to be stable and unrestrained to the current struggle.

The first group of residents who returned to the house can be said to be full of praise! The government's actions and responsibilities gave the residents of the entire territory a heartfelt trust in the darkest period.

Every day, people come here to watch the construction progress. Not only the affected residents who have not moved into their new homes, but also residents in other neighborhoods, and even merchants or travelers passing through this place.

The plan and heroes formulated by Qiao Ji not only stabilized the people's hearts of the territory, but also was also an effective advertisement for external publicity. The image of "not abandoning, not giving up" and the style of the person in charge have spread more and more widely as these people's journeys spread.

What followed was that during this period, the number of free people applying for settlement in Borham became 1.5 times the previous one. Although it did not show an explosive growth, it was at least a good start. Unfortunately, the number of people 60-70 per month

To alleviate the shortage of labor, it is still a drop in the bucket!

But at least it was water, and it was high-quality mineral water! The newly opened blacksmith shops in the city are recruiting apprentices, requiring them to be half-soldiers over the age of 14.

There was a long queue in the alleys in the workshop area. After all, blacksmiths are not only a craft of survival, but also a very decent job. Although their main job is iron practical products: knives, pliers, door locks, horseshoes, pots and basins, and various farm tools... At the same time, nail horseshoes to horses, etc., in Xiao Nian's heart, it is simply a perfect combination of creativity and strength! The exposed upper body and strong muscles give people a feeling that it is also a very masculine profession.

No matter what the image and psychology are, if only two or three little blacksmiths cooperate with each other, they can make nearly 10,000 nails every day. They cut off the bundles of iron wire with their hands, hammered the tips, and flattened their heads, which is extremely skillful. Judging from the current consumption of the Borham Collar, of course, it is a big iron-consuming man. Whether it is the repair of houses or the construction of ships, they are all big iron-consuming people! After deducting consumables, each blacksmith can also earn nearly one gold coin.

The common people are often short-sighted, and the current hot situation is enough to make them yearn for.

At the same time, blacksmiths also make swords, of course, this requires better steel. High-tech blacksmiths can make helmets and armors that are both well-organized and exquisite. Although it cannot be said that weapons can win the world, they are often at a disadvantage without sharp blades. Therefore, from a military perspective, blacksmiths are very important. Although they are respected, their social status is not high, and their income is stable.

Of course, this social status is not high, and it is also compared with the aristocratic class. Among the free people, the status of the senior blacksmith is extraordinary. Even in the Knight Manor of the Kingdom of Cruze to the south, the blacksmith is the only non-noble member who does not need to be polite. In remote and ignorant places, some people even think that they have some magic power.

In commercial republics farther away, iron products are often combined with buildings. Outdoor balcony railings, gates, fences of courtyard walls, indoor stair handrails, door handles, door locks, mantels, etc. Blacksmiths often make iron products based on drawings. Their pattern design is very exquisite, and some iron products can be called works of art.

When he was in Karada, Georgie had seen such a product. Although in the eyes of many blacksmiths, this method is a wrong way, it does not hinder the other party's health.

Qiao Ji welcomed the blacksmiths who came to Borham to obtain a home and buy property. Just by greatly accelerating the construction of the territory, Qiao Ji smiled when he was sleeping. What's more, he could also prepare talents for the possible wars that might occur in the future.

If the war really comes, the transportation of material will probably not be as convenient as it is now. Even goods that arrive successfully, the rising price may be so high that it is hopelessly high. This kind of thing has not happened in history.

At this time, it is crucial to increase your own supply capacity. Baron Vessi, which is close to the Borham Territory, has several large iron ore. If you don't use such resources and conditions well, you will be punished by God. Besides, during the war, the loss of weapons and armor will be far beyond the daily life. The maintenance work alone is probably not enough.

After several days of screening, the blacksmith shops selected several new apprentices from the best choice. The stove used to calcinate iron billets are the partners these young men need to stay with each other for a while in the future. At the connection of the stove, there is a large hand-pulled bellows, which are mainly used to control the temperature and strength of the fire, which is generally called controlling the temperature and temperature.

In addition to carrying things, the most arduous job of the new apprentice is that. It is also the first and most easy to master. The ever-destroying stove and the continuous black smoke will likely accompany the lives of these little guys with a slightly childish face.

The sound of "ding ding ding dangdang" kept coming from the blacksmith shop, which was the sound of the master and apprentice making the product. A blacksmith who just arrived usually brought one or two senior apprentices. The apprentice's main job was to use a large iron hammer five or six times larger than his master to help the master make the tools into the required shape. Of course, there was no apprentice's life in the final tool forming stage. Quenching and small hammer shape training are the tools that test a blacksmith's craftsmanship the most.

Looking at the sparks bursting from the hammer and the red metal on the anvil, Qiao Ji felt that the pressure he had endured before was worth it: 'Yes, this is the senior technician of this world, this is the metal craftsman engineer of this world. This is the representative of the advanced productivity of this world! Unlike the mysterious mage of the mage, which is the magic of the white and snowy combination, this is the technology that can truly benefit the people. When the number of blacksmiths increases, I came forward to form a blacksmith craftsman union. Relying on these experienced old craftsmen to start improving the craftsmanship. In the future, the weapons of our territory's soldiers will never lose to others. However, these blacksmith shops suddenly appeared, and the charcoal used for the original iron smuggling seemed to be insufficient.'

Generally speaking, the fuels used for iron smelting include charcoal and coal. However, because the fuel requirements are relatively high, only about ten kilograms of coal can be used for iron making, and charcoal that can be used for iron making is often called iron charcoal. Charcoal is obviously much better in this regard, but in terms of output and cycle, it is often not as good as using coal. The "Greenpeace" in this world is not peaceful at all, and the ferocity of the druids of the extreme factions is well known.

As for coking technology in coke, Qiao Ji didn't know anything about this technology that is almost a must-have for every traveler. Although he knew that it was a product made by bituminous coal under the condition of isolating air and heated to 950-1050c and finally made through drying, pyrolysis, melting, bonding, solidification, shrinkage and other stages. But the process process! The key to the control! The most basic type of kiln used is a problem that needs to be solved one by one. Even a top student in metallurgy and chemical engineering can't solve this problem in a short time!

After all, the prerequisites for the two are completely different. At that time, modern high-tech was used, and it was quite difficult to use the local coking method of World War II. What's more, this kind of backward and polluted process is often not taught by the colleges. It takes a lot of time to convert the theoretical data into an operable sound field process!

The processes that need to be paid attention to in the production process require repeated and repeated experiments. God knows how his colleagues did that in the novels that Qiao Ji had read. Fang Zheng Qiao Ji himself does not have such great powers.

All he could do was to point out the direction for the craftsmen in the territory. Then he provided more abundant material conditions for their research and development. Then he could only wait for a long time. This topic, which began after the fiscal surplus last year, has been progressing slowly so far. It seems that it is a bit of the meaning of the lifetime series!

'I learned since I was a child that the steel industry is the backbone of a country. Although the saying after industrialization was said at that time, it is not the case in this world! Otherwise, I would not be so happy because of the arrival of several blacksmiths. I hope that one day, the steel production and pig iron production of our Borham can truly meet our needs! If we are more famous for our fine metals, then I must let my descendants write letters to burn it to me!' Feeling that the future is so difficult, Qiao Ji smiled like this bitterly from afar outside the blacksmith shop.

Of course, loss and thanksgiving are not the main themes of Qiaoji's life. He quickly controlled his emotions and signaled the carriage to drive out of the city. As a lord, Qiaoji held the responsibility and trust of the entire territory on his shoulders. He could not show any weakness in front of others, and even during the funerals of the soldiers who were together day and night, he could not cry.

In this country that pursues iron and blood, Qiao Ji can be arrogant, arrogant, and even cruel, but he will never be allowed to be weak. This will cause the territorials to distrust the territory and thus affect their control over the entire territory.

The endless caravan passed by the pedestrians and Joggy's carriage. He was about to go to routinely check the work conditions at the port.

After the spring, the freezing of the northern ports once caused the cargo throughput of Morebi South Korea to continue to decline. Of course, in Qiao Ji's view, this is a normal phenomenon. However, in recent times, with the continuous spread of the reputation of the territory, the throughput of this cargo has begun to rebound again. For Qiao Ji, this unexpected surprise must be achieved by double efforts to completely retain it!
