Chapter 31 Construction
The biggest difference in architectural style between Chinese castle buildings and castle buildings in Hebrew-speaking areas is that there is no sharp spire that is often seen in castle buildings in Hebrew-speaking areas, but tall and thick eaves. Wing tower.
Of course, as a castle in this era, its building materials and armed defense functions are exactly the same. The entire castle, city walls, outer forts, battlements, arrow towers, ditches, drawbridges, and steam power units are all available.
The entire castle covers an area of more than 30,000 square meters. Among the more than 30,000 square meters, it includes the main castle building of more than 10,000 square meters and an airship next to the castle with an area of more than 20,000 square meters that can dock a large airship. The construction site of the castle is at the foot of Yunju Mountain near Bailong Town. The entire castle cost 460,000 gold coins. The bank under the Changfeng Merchant Group loaned it to Zhang Tie, and Zhang Tie entrusted it to Changfeng The professional construction team of the business group will build it.
During this process, what Zhang Tie did was to discuss with a team of architectural experts around a pile of drawings and discuss the basic functions and uses of the castle, and put forward some of his own requirements and opinions on the castle, and then, that The expert team selected three sites suitable for building the castle on Qianlong Island. After Zhang Tie chose to build it on Yunju Mountain, there was basically nothing to do with him.
By the way, he also signed two formal agreements with the Changfeng Merchant Group, one is a loan agreement, and the other is a commissioned construction agreement for the construction of the castle. On the afternoon of the day when the two agreements were signed, a construction team of more than 600 people under the Changfeng Merchant Group took a huge airship to Qianlong Island with a lot of construction equipment. Tents were set up at the foot of the mountain and began to survey the terrain.
By the way, it was not until this time that Zhang Tie knew that the right to build buildings on Qianlong Island was not enjoyed by everyone, except for permanent residents on the island who could build houses and some facilities around several towns after applying. Besides, only the family students of Qianlongtang have the right to buy land and build various buildings on Qianlong Island. This is how the entire Qianlong Island developed.
The land of more than 20,000 square meters on Yunju Mountain cost more than 18,000 gold coins. Calculated, it is not cheap at all. Not only is it not cheap, but it can also be said to be very expensive. Gold coins should be found in other places, not to mention tens of thousands of square meters of forests and land, even a few mountains can be bought.
In this era, as long as it is outside the city walls, the land in many places is not very valuable, especially in some economically underdeveloped areas. Take Heiyan City as an example. The large tracts of land in the black map area around Heiyan City , are all unclaimed lands, you have to be capable, let alone build a castle on those lands, even if you can build a city, no one will care about you.
But at this time, all Zhang Tie's energy is immersed in the joy of owning a castle of his own, and he doesn't care about the land price here, and every time he thinks that he will own it soon When Zhang Tie was in a castle, there was always an unreal feeling of dreaming in Zhang Tie's heart, and he always felt that everything in front of him was so unreal.
Zhang Tie did not expect that those little yeasts with vitality and aura would one day bring about earth-shaking changes in his life.
Thinking of those unremarkable earthworms, those unremarkable golden unicorns and those cheapest sand scales, Zhang Tie was full of awe for the great nature and magical creations.
In this world, nothing is insignificant and worthless. This is Zhang Tie's deepest realization these days. With this realization, it appeared in Zhang Tie's heart, but it was a question.
Since even a little yeast and earthworms have the extraordinary ability to change the world, what kind of extraordinary ability is endowed by the creation of man, the spirit of all things?
Zhang Tie wondered whether everyone has an extraordinary ability. This ability does not need to be exercised. Everyone is born with it, just like earthworms are born with super vitality and anti-drug ability, just like gold. Unicorns are born to be able to carry objects that exceed a thousand times their own weight, just like Yuanneng Lingqi Yeast is born to complete the fermentation of super enzymes. These things, no one teaches them, they will do it by themselves, it is their instinct .
Is there any kind of ability and instinct in human beings that everyone is born with, brought from the womb, unique, and can change the world and the extraordinary instinct that makes people human? This instinct, just like breathing, does not need to be learned or exercised. Everyone should have it. Is it the unique symbol of a person standing at the top of all races in the universe?
As a human being, one must be superior to such inconspicuous little things as earthworms, golden unicorns and yeasts, right? Zhang Tie speculated in his heart, if it is said that humans do not have this ability, Zhang Tie feels that something is wrong, because it does not seem to conform to the law of creation. Of course, a bully race must have the inherent extraordinary instinct of the bully race.
And if people have this ability, then what exactly is this ability? Why have I never heard of it? In this era, including the era before the cataclysm, almost the vast majority of people seem to have learned their abilities from schools and other parties. As a whole, human beings have never shown any extraordinary extraordinary instincts that can be possessed without learning. , What is wrong with this, is human beings really the exception in the universe, or has human beings collectively forgotten this extraordinary instinct they possess?
Zhang Tie is a person with strong imagination and curiosity. He is also a person who doesn’t like to be too horny. I buried it in my heart, like a book that was turned over and then put in the bookcase, leaving only a small bookmark with a question mark—do people have such an innate extraordinary instinct? If so, what is it?
Putting aside these random thoughts, Zhang Tie's castle is appearing on Yunju Mountain bit by bit at a fast speed with the efforts of a group of construction experts.
On the third day when the construction team came to Yunju Mountain, amid the roar of a lot of camel machines, a simple site for large airships to take off and land was leveled out, and then the construction team laid two tracks, Two rail cranes, one large and one small, were also quickly assembled, and then, a large number of airships flew in every day to unload a large amount of construction materials directly here.
After the simple site for the airship to take off and land was prepared, the foundation of the castle was dug in four days amidst the roar of a lot of camel machines, and then the construction team transported the airship The prefabricated steel foundation components are laid and connected on the foundation of the castle. Once the professional quick-drying cement concrete is poured, the foundation construction of the castle is completed, and the subsequent work becomes a process of building super large building blocks.
The skeleton of the entire castle is made of steel standard components. The large airships of the Changfeng Merchant Group continuously transport these steel components that have been made. Poured with quick-drying cement concrete or filled with prefabricated masonry, the entire castle is like mushrooms after the rain, rising day by day.
Under the continuous construction of the construction team day and night, it only took 13 days to complete the topping construction of the main project of the entire castle.
The castle that has just completed the capping construction of the main project is like a gray-brown cement bump placed on Yunju Mountain. Although it looks a bit ugly, it has already shown the momentum that a castle should have.
On June 15th, after igniting the bright spots of the Jingu Temple, Zhang Tie once again completed the work of igniting the 13th bright spots on his spine by relying on his own mental strength, and officially became a quasi-level seven fighter. With the soul fire of a centipede, Zhang Tie will officially step into the ranks of seventh-level fighters. Zhang Tie's battle spirit totem will also change from a hell black spider to a more ferocious centipede. The power of iron-blooded battle spirit will also further increase get promoted.
It was also on this day that Zhang Tie was notified by Baicaotang that the first batch of standard crystal medicine bottles with his private registration logo engraved on them had arrived.
When the staff of Baicaotang notified Zhang Tie, Zhang Tie was blocked by Yang Yuankang at the entrance of the basic swordsmanship training ground.
Compared with the training of basic footwork, the training of basic swordsmanship is a method that only perverts can come up with, and no one can take advantage of it.
There are only eight basic moves in swordsmanship, which are splitting, chopping, picking, stabbing, prodding, collapsing, stirring, poking...
To pass the basic swordsmanship, you must practice each of the eight moves a million times. The goal of everyone's basic swordsmanship training is a metal robotic doll counter driven by steam. That doll has The function of counting, for example, if you use a sword to stab any one of the three parts of the puppet's eyes, throat or heart, every time you stab, the puppet's counter will move, and the number of "stabs" A number is scrolled in the display bar.
The puppet's neck, hands and feet correspond to attack counting areas such as hacking and slashing. The puppet has four metal arms, holding four different weapons, and waving them according to a fixed rhythm. The defense or attack on these four arms corresponds to the four moves of teasing, collapsing, stirring, and dialing.
There is a counting display column divided into eight rows under each metal doll. The minimum standard for passing the basic swordsmanship is that the minimum number displayed in each of these eight counting display columns is one million.
This is a hard training where there is no way to cheat at all, and epiphany doesn't work here. You can only accumulate the numbers bit by bit.
In the past, Zhang Tie wondered why the compulsory subjects in Lingtian Academy were only basic swordsmanship, and there were no trainings such as basic swordsmanship and spearmanship. It was only after the basic swordsmanship training began that Zhang Tie understood why the Chinese people chose swordsmanship. It is called the Lord of Hundred Soldiers, because those eight sword skills have almost covered the basic attack skills of most weapons. Compared with sword skills, knife skills focus more on chopping and slashing, while marksmanship focuses more on picking and stabbing. .
When Zhang Tie saw Yang Yuankang, Yang Yuankang hugged Zhang Tie as soon as he came over as if he saw a savior, "Brother, you must save me this time!"
