Chapter 337 Postpartum Inspection of the Construction Site in Maota Village Commercial District
After a long period of careful consideration, Carnegie finally made up his mind to expand his sphere of influence. He set his sights on the entire Five Sacred Mountains and attempted to take it for himself in order to obtain all kinds of materials necessary for the development of the college.
Carnegie's reputation as a heretic can never be erased. Today, the college's armed forces are strong enough to dominate the area.
They only needed to randomly assign some magicians and a few knights to easily repel the local lords and firmly control large tracts of territory.
Faced with such a powerful opponent, the local Magic Association, despite knowing that there was a huge gap in magical power between the two sides, still went against the king's will for the first time at this critical moment and chose to remain silent.
They did not dare to engage in a fierce battle with Carnegie and his accomplices.
In desperation, they once again sent out a distress signal to the Magic Island. However, to everyone's surprise, this time the request for help was ruthlessly rejected.
Although Carnegie now has the notoriety of being a "heretic", his strength is too strong and people are helpless against him, and ultimately they can only choose to leave him alone.
In a conflict not long ago, the Magic Association lost more than 400 magicians. Such a tragic number of casualties is truly shocking.
In this situation, no one would easily offend Carnegie, a dangerous person, unless it was absolutely necessary. For this reason, when the Iron Curtain Principality urgently asked for help from the Magic Island, it was politely and firmly rejected...
The Carnegie incident that occurred in the Iron Curtain Principality was like a thorn in the heart of the Magic Association Headquarters. It not only seriously challenged the Magic Association's ruling power, but also put the entire organization into an extremely embarrassing and uncomfortable situation.
After about a week, Bryony was finally able to get out of bed and walk. The potion showed an excellent effect in assisting postpartum recovery, allowing her to basically return to her pre-birth condition.
On this day, Ms. Bailey held the child in her arms, and the two of them rode their mounts to inspect the construction site. Unknowingly, nine months had passed since the start of construction, and they had not come to inspect the construction site for several months.
At this time, the construction of the underground space has been completed. You know, the scale of the project below is ten times that of the above. Just reinforcing the underground space and completing the work of the full stone frame is equivalent to completing the most difficult part of the entire project.
The formation engraving of the underground space has been going on for about half a year, but only one-third of it has been completed. It must be said that the engineering level of the underground space is comparable to that of a top magic tower.
On the ground, the filling operation is currently underway, and about five meters of soil will be laid. This is done for no other reason than to effectively reduce the fluctuations in the magic power below.
After that, we have to reserve green areas according to the drawings, and harden the ground in other places before laying stone slabs. As for the sewers and other facilities, they are all pre-buried. The location of each house has also been fixed.
This is undoubtedly a miracle in the field of engineering construction. The entire project adopted an integrated construction model, which greatly improved efficiency and quality.
"Director, I think it's still too early here. We have just reached the stage of hardening the ground..." said Ms. Baileyteri.
Bryony responded, "We came here to inspect this time mainly to ask the local alchemist if there are any errors in the drawings. If there are any problems, they must be corrected immediately. In fact, the most difficult underground projects, including underground formations and compartments, have been completed. In contrast, the construction speed of ground buildings will be very fast. We must pay close attention to the situation here in the future..."
Miss Blaney had an in-depth discussion with the local alchemist. As expected, there were some problems with the blueprint.
Some of the problems were minor and they had already found ways to solve them themselves, after all, the leader basically came to the construction site every three days to supervise. But there were still some problems that needed to be solved as soon as possible because there was no construction yet.
Blaney took over the problematic parts of the drawing and readily agreed to go back and make changes. Fortunately, even though there were problems, the overall framework was not wrong.
From now on, Blainey has more time to pay attention to this place. With her attention, the quality of the project is undoubtedly effectively guaranteed.
I spent about two hours on the site, communicating well with the alchemy masters, bringing back problematic drawings, finding time to solve the problems, and ensuring the project was secured.
After inspecting the construction site, he went back to the pocket watch shop to have a meal, take a short rest, and put the child to sleep. Then, Blainey headed to the Witte Tower in a radiant mood.
Let's go check out the submarine design first, and then go straight to Senior Edwin to find out more.
"Little girl, I haven't been here for a long time. You seem to be in good shape. Is it a boy or a girl?"
"Thank you for your concern, senior. It's a little boy. His days of suffering have finally ended. Senior, how is the progress?"
"Not bad, Qianzhou is the culmination of puppetry, this move has improved the overall puppet making process, some of the technology can be used in the latest puppet design, but it costs a bit too much..." Senior Edwin was a little embarrassed.
"This is normal. An alchemist's average daily salary plus rewards, as well as the materials consumed in the experiments, must be a huge waste. This is the minimum expense. Are you short of money, senior?"
"Fortunately, the most expensive stage has passed. There are still some experiments that need time to be verified. Please be patient!"
"Senior, how much money do we have left in our account?"
Edwin carefully took out an exquisite box from his bosom, opened the lid gently, and carefully counted the treasures inside. After a while, he looked up, smiled and said, "There are still more than 1.5 million funds left. This month's salary has been distributed, and the bounties have also been distributed. But, there is no rush for funds, just prepare another batch for me next month..."
At this time, Bryony took out a check of five million yuan from his pocket without hesitation, handed it to Edwin, and said with a smile: "Senior, please take this money and make arrangements first, and don't worry too much about the expenditure. If this money is not enough, just come to me for more! After all, only with sufficient funds can we get things done quickly!"
Hearing this, Edwin couldn't help but complain: "Oh, this is such a headache! We have invested nearly 100 million in that damn submarine project, but we haven't even seen a decent finished product yet. I really don't know when this will end!"
After listening to this, Blayney smiled slightly and consoled: "Don't worry, senior. Think about it, which of the big shots in this tower does not control the most advanced technology in various fields? Even my mercenary team, if it does not have the support of top technology, how can it survive for a long time? So, the submarine is just one of many projects. Besides, those magic coins are useless in your hands. It is better to spend more money on several core technologies. Maybe there will be unexpected gains..."
After chatting with Senior Edwin for a while, Blainey stood up and said goodbye. It seemed that the progress was very fast, many technical aspects had been solved, and success was just around the corner.
