Chapter 46: Kawi: In my opinion, this is a means of transportation

Arriving at the Elhaisen house, Harold knocked on the door.

It was Kavi who opened the door. When he saw Harold, his eyes lit up and he looked Harold up and down several times with appreciation, revealing a satisfied smile.

"This outfit is really nice, it suits you very well! But... it's a little plain. It would look better if you paired it with a necklace or earrings."

"Really?" Harold raised his sleeves unconsciously.

However, the aesthetic taste of the Xumi people seems to be indeed like this. Both men and women like to wear gold earrings and gold necklaces with gemstones.

He had no habit of wearing jewelry in his previous life, but when in Rome, do as the Romans do, and it might be possible for him to give it a try after graduation.

Kavi nodded repeatedly and said with a smile, "It looks great. Come in quickly. Now everyone will be here."

Harold followed Kavi into the house and saw that Seno and Setale had arrived. The two were sitting on a chair with a few books on the table in front of them. They were holding documents and discussing something.

"Today I am the last one," said Harold.

"Well, the founders of the society have been taking turns being late, and it's time for you to reflect on this," said Alhaisen, sitting across from Senor and Setale, reading a book.

Kavi rolled his eyes at him and said, "Harold was only one minute late. I was just here to make up time. How can that be considered late?"

Kavi sat down next to Elhaisen, and Harold sat down next to Kavi, placing his notes and books on the table in front of him.

Then the five of them began to share their achievements over the past day and a half.

Setale is the Sage's Assistant. Although her work is not busy, she has no days off. She switched shifts with her colleague in order to attend the society activities on Saturday morning, so she had to go to the Church of the Lord to sort out documents on Saturday afternoon.

Even so, her progress was not slow. She was a desert person and was familiar with the living habits and some ancient customs of the desert people. She could more easily guess the events described in ancient books.

Seno had previously joined many societies that studied the Red King and mastered a variety of ancient Sumeru languages. In addition, his graduation application was awaiting approval. He was currently unemployed at home, so he devoted most of his time to the project.

He was very interested in this subject and even reduced the frequency of playing "Seven Summonings". His progress was faster than Setale's.

Elhaisen did not invest extra time in this aspect. During this day and a half, he still spent most of his time reading other books and resting. He only used the time he thought he needed to spend on work to learn the subject. His progress was slightly slower than Setale's.

Kavi still had orders from the client to revise, so he was revising the manuscript while conducting research on the project. His progress was slow, but far above the average level of ordinary scholars.

Harold...

His progress on linguistics was almost the same as that of Seno, and he also wrote two additional reports on the use of desert plants to reduce reservoir evaporation, promote water circulation and improve desert climate.

Far ahead, far ahead.

Setale looked at Harold with eyes full of admiration and trust. She was even more convinced that what Harold said about just "waiting" was not empty talk. This lord was doing his utmost to prepare for improving the lives of the desert people.

When the time is right, they will be able to go to the desert with their research results, act decisively and change everything.

So she has to work harder.

Setale clenched the documents in her hands. She felt that compared with Harold, she had done too little and she should squeeze out more time to spend on this project.

"...Did you not sleep last night?", Seno asked a question that everyone wanted to know.

Harold looked innocent: "I'm not Batman, how can I not sleep?"

"But bats sleep during the day," Kavi scratched his head.

No one got Batman, they all thought Harold was comparing himself to a bat.

Harold could only spread his hands and said that Batman was a mythical figure in his hometown and he didn't need to sleep.

Kavi estimated the speed of his research project and found that if he did not draw pictures for the client, he could indeed catch up with Haroldt's progress, or even be faster than him.

It seems that I have to work harder. I won’t find out that my junior classmates have done more work than me during the final project summary, right?

Isn't that asking the junior to make up for my workload? That won't work! I'm the senior! How can I take advantage of the junior!

Kavi swore to himself that he would never let Haroldt's workload exceed his own next time.

Then, the five people began to check each other's research results.

Setale circulated her research content to the other four people, and they all received positive responses.

Setale breathed a sigh of relief. Linguistics was not her major after all, and she was very worried that she would make mistakes in it, causing others to help her, a senior, make up for the mistakes. Fortunately, she was cautious enough before writing the conclusion, and every word she wrote was carefully considered.

This was necessary. Although she wanted to translate more books as quickly as possible, she could not make the same mistakes as her predecessors, as that would go against her purpose of spreading desert civilization.

Then came Senor's, Alhaisen's, Kavi's, and Harold's.

The research attitudes of the several people were quite rigorous, and after looking through the work, they did not find any mistakes. Because the project had just begun, there was no overlap in the research of the five people, and there were no doubts for the time being.

Kavi recorded everyone's current progress in his notebook, and then asked if anyone wanted to change the research list.

After making sure that no one wanted to adjust, he announced the end of the event and the next event would still be held at 8 am on Saturday.

"Senior Kavi, Senior Alhaisen, I have something to show you," after Seno and Setale left, Harold took out the prepared parchment and spread it on the table.

"What an old blueprint! Where did you find it?" Kavi asked curiously.

Harold: "I bought it from a street stall. I think the picture on it is very interesting. Senior Kavi, you are good at mechanical engineering. Can you tell what this is used for?"

Kavi looked at it for a while, then turned the drawing over to look at it for a while, and then turned it back over again, unable to suppress the joy on his face: "Based on my experience, this is a means of transportation used by ancient residents!

You see, the functions of these two wheels should be similar to those of carriage wheels, but it does not need to be pulled by a horse. It is equipped with gears and chains. These two... should be pedals.

This is done by pedaling to generate power, and then using chains and gears to transmit power to the wheels. This machine can move forward! The handle in front should be used to control the direction. "

so amazing!

Although the principle of the bicycle is not complicated, Kavi is worthy of the title of "the light of the Miaolun School" as he was able to analyze its principle in such a short time based on a sketch.

Praising secretly in his heart, Harold made a surprised expression on his face: "It sounds interesting, is it useful?"

"Of course!" Kavi insisted, "This is a human-powered means of transportation. Don't be fooled by its simple appearance. There are more than four parts of it that use the principle of levers. Using it to travel will definitely save time and effort. Harold, you really found a treasure!

I would say that people with vision are different. Even if they come across a mechanical drawing that they are not familiar with, they can still distinguish the good from the bad.

But some people, even if you put good things in front of them, they can't see anything, eh, don't you think so, El Haisen?"

At this moment, Elhaisen also put down the book in his hand and looked at the drawings in front of him.

"Did you see anything?" Kavi asked with narrowed eyes.

Elhaisen: "Of course I don't have the same keen eye as the two great artists, but from your description, do you have a way to make it?"

"What's so difficult about this?" Kavi took the blueprint in his hand and looked at it over and over again. "The principle is not complicated, but the design is very clever.

I can't believe this was designed by the ancients. How come I've never seen a similar means of transportation recorded in a book? If there was, even if it was only recorded in words, I should have had an impression of it."

"It means I really found a treasure," Harold said with a smile.

"Yes, you are so lucky!" Kavi patted Harold on the back of his head.

Harold: "Then I'll give this blueprint to Senior Kavi for study."

"Ah? Can I really take it?" Kavi was very surprised, but a little hesitant.

"Because it's useless in my hands and will just gather dust, but since Senior Kawi was able to make it, I really want to see the real thing," said Haroldt.

"Okay, I will never let you down, give me three days... no, two days, and I can make it!" said Kavi.

After saying goodbye to Kavi and Elhaisen, Harold left Elhaisen's house. It was already nine o'clock in the evening. He planned to go home to continue his research and go to Huachengguo tomorrow to check on the two beasts of burden.

But after walking for a while, he heard Kavi calling him from behind.

Harold stopped, turned around, and saw Kavi running towards him with the blueprint in his arms.

"Harold, are you free the day after tomorrow?" Kavi asked.

I'll go to Huachengguo tomorrow to feed the pack animals some water and check on the status of the Pianpian flowers... The Dundun peaches have only been planted for two days, so they must not have sprouted yet. So there's nothing to do at Huachengguo for the time being...

"When I have time," Haroldt asked with a smile after thinking for a while, "Senior Kavi, do you want to invite me to see what you have made?"

"That's only one aspect. Um... the day after tomorrow is El Haisen's birthday. Do you want to hold a birthday party for him together? It will be at 8 o'clock the day after tomorrow at El Haisen's house. I will serve my specialty and I promise not to let you down," said Kavi.

El Haisen's birthday?

February 11th.

I have been in this world for more than a month, and the school has been open for more than a month... It is indeed almost Elhaisen's birthday, and I actually forgot about it.

It's also been too long since I graduated, otherwise I would have thought of Elhaisen's birthday as soon as school started. It's because Elhaisen's birthday always overlaps with the start of the school year.

"Okay," Harold agreed immediately, "Then the car made by Senior Kavi can be considered as part of Senior Elhaisen's birthday surprise."

"That's a good idea," Kavi said happily, suddenly realizing, "Then this should be considered a gift from us all to him!"

Harold nodded in agreement.

"Then we should give it a name, 'car'? It is indeed a means of transportation like a horse-drawn carriage. Well... since it was you who discovered the blueprint, let's just call it the Harocar," Kavi suggested.

"Dismissed," Harold said very quickly.

This is too socially dead, and it also reminds people of the blue "Hello Bike" in his previous life.

"Ah? Why did you reject it so straightforwardly? I think this name is quite nice!" Kavi said dissatisfiedly.

“Because I can think of a better name, how about we call it a bicycle?”, Harold suggested.

Please forgive his poor naming skills, he just “took” the name of the bicycle from its previous life.

Anyway, as long as you don’t call it “Hello Car”, everything will be fine.

"Good idea," Kavi also thought that the name was very suitable and did not insist on his opinion.

After saying goodbye to Kavi, Harold continued to read books and research topics as originally planned.

The next day, he went to Huachengguo to check on his two pack animals. The two pack animals had not had water for two and a half days, and their eyes were gray, as if they had lost their vitality.

Harold gave them some water, and the two beasts of burden quickly licked the water clean and looked at him with begging eyes. Harold felt that it was enough, so he fed them a peach, deliberately not letting them eat enough to wear down their will.

According to the forest rangers' practice, they have to let them starve for another three or four days, and then drive them into the pack animal pens to be fed, so that they will completely shed their wildness and become domestic animals.

Then Harold looked at the deceptive flowers in the laboratory. They were all quietly pretending to be sweet flowers and nestling in the pots.

After confirming the situation here, Harold took a boat to the port of Ormos. This time, as soon as he stood in front of a merchant, the other party immediately smiled and asked respectfully, "Are you looking for Master Sangge Mahabayi?"

Harold nodded, and the merchant immediately sent his followers to lead the way.

Harold found Dolly and asked her about the production of freeze-dried food.

Speaking of freeze-dried food, Dolly immediately became excited. She took out five bags of freeze-dried Dun Dun peaches and asked Harold to taste them.

"This is just the first product. I tried twenty times and finally found the right drying method. My friend, you really left me with a big problem. You only told me to freeze it at -45 degrees Celsius and then dry it in a vacuum environment, but why didn't you tell me how to dry it?

I figured out this drying method by myself. Since you provided me with such a good inspiration, I won't make it difficult for you. Come and try the finished product!" Dolly said.

Harold opened a bag of freeze-dried Dun Dun peaches, took out a piece and put it in his mouth to chew.

Mm! That’s the taste!

Harold smiled with satisfaction: "Your research is very successful."

"Of course. Look how much time and peaches I wasted on this!" Dolly spread her hands. "If we weren't friends, you would have to pay me, Mora, for the freeze-dried food."

"Thank you, my good friend," Harold said without any guilt. "Please give me ten more packets. I will give them to my friends."

"My friend, you are so shameless!" Dolly couldn't help but say.

But she still took ten bags of freeze-dried Dun Dun peaches and gave them to Harold, who said goodbye to Dolly with satisfaction.

After returning to Xumi City by boat, Harold ordered a cake and bought a beautiful packaging box from the gift shop, then packed the freeze-dried Dun Dun peaches in it.

Elhaisen doesn't like eating fruits because if he eats fruits while reading, the juice will easily splash onto the book. So he should like freeze-dried fruits, which is very convenient for him to eat while reading.

At seven o'clock on Tuesday evening, Harold took the gift box, went to the cake shop to pick up the ordered cake, and went to Elhaisen's house.

Kavi had arrived, and a brand new bicycle was parked in front of Elhaisen's house.

But this car was a little different from what he had imagined.

When Haroldt saw the two training wheels added to the rear wheel of the bicycle, his brain froze for two seconds.

My considerate senior Kawi, what have you done? !
