Chapter 783 But I only Know How to Play with Mud
Chapter 784 But I only know how to play with mud
One month later.
Tina observed the latest construction situation on the construction site.
The site of this piece of housing was officially named "Dages Manor".
The originally desolate and rugged stone mountain was carved out with winding veins like branches, the stone road was made into the shape of tree bark, and a small half of the mountain was transformed into the roots of some giant trees exposed on the ground.
The workers were still knocking.
The house part was easy.
The idea was the most difficult.
Related technology, whether it is building stone houses or paving roads and beautifying the environment, these experienced workers can complete it under the requirements of architects.
After the model house was opened to the public, under the promotion and promotion of the business, the Dags-style house became a hot spot in Yancheng. Many people come to visit and inquire every day, full of curiosity and appreciation for this place.
"Do the Dags people live in houses like this?"
"Yes, sir, that's why it's called Dags style. We have retained the Dags style and added the comfort, convenience and advanced parts of Yancheng, so there is no need to worry about daily life."
"How much does such a house cost?"
"There are several specifications according to your needs... Our prices are not cheap, and we strive to create a high-quality living environment with a landmark board and a unique and elegant design. In this world, beauty is a luxury, isn't it?"
"But it's not very convenient here, and I don't have a car to go out."
"Miss, please don't worry. Soon, a special railway line will be opened from Yancheng to the famous ancient salt pond in the west, which will also become a public scenic spot, so the value here will only increase further."
...
The agents of the Chamber of Commerce were all eloquent, and they talked about the Dags-style courtyard in a grandiose way.
Tina was used to it.
People pay for things, in addition to the functions of the items themselves, but also the extra value and subjective emotions given to the items... In more familiar words, I pay, and I am happy.
As an architect, it is a pleasure to see that the buildings she designed are loved and bought by people.
But she has more important things to do now.
After confirming that there is no problem at the construction site, Tina drove back to the college office at a high speed.
In the mailbox at the door, she unexpectedly saw the long-awaited letter.
Signed "Mrs. Matthews".
This is her mother's handwriting and name. Another identity of her father Pava is the storyteller Matthews.
Tina took a look.
It said inside.
"Got it, take it, and wish you good luck."
In the concise and concise style of her mother, there is also a large city bond in it, with a face value of 3 million.
Great! !
Fortunately, I sold everything I had to bear it.
Tina flicked the paper in her hand and said to the busy girl assistant inside: "Don't worry about the materials for the second phase. The sponsorship has arrived."
Vilia said, she was concentrating on kneading clay figures at the moment.
The mud she used now was not the common white or reddish-brown clay, but a lead-gray soft soil with a smooth surface and stronger viscosity.
This is an extremely expensive superior substitute.
Forbidden soil.
It comes from the distant Xirang Mine, and the output is not much. At present, it is only supplied to qualified scholars or research institutions, and the price is still high.
The shaping function of forbidden soil is much stronger than clay, because it has stronger viscosity and elasticity, and is not easy to collapse and deform naturally.
It is an impurity stripped from Xirang, which is itself a powder of forbidden stone. It does not need to be fired with the fire of faith. It only needs to be heated at low temperature or wait for it to dry naturally, and it will solidify into forbidden stone again.
Forbidden stone has the ability to isolate various elements.
At present, Yao scholars have tested and found that adding a small amount of fine sand and iron sand to it can make the forbidden soil solidify into a new material with both strength and stability. It will be able to conduct power through iron sand, and the conduction speed can be determined by adjusting the content of iron sand.
It is expensive.
Tina almost emptied her savings to buy enough forbidden soil for Wei Liya to use in the first stage.
Facts have proved that it is expensive for a reason.
The rune engraved with forbidden soil as a carrier is very stable and almost never deformed. It has strong bearing capacity and is not as easy to break or uneven as clay-fired pottery.
Vilia used forbidden soil as raw material and pieced together a finished prop with new clay pieces.
Tina looked at the shelf against the wall, where there was a tall and big hammer. Its surface was made of square gray forbidden stone, and both the long handle and the hammer head were square.
This is the magic wand made by Vilia.
In actual production, because the bending of clay pieces would cause the rune to fail, the bending technology has not been conquered. So Vilia used pieces of clay pieces to piece together a long column, and then made the head of the magic wand on it...
In short, due to technical difficulties, the magic wand finally became a gray hammer.
But it can really fly.
When Tina first tried it in the suburbs, she sat behind Vilia and watched the girl slowly move the handle to control the wand to fly. She was particularly surprised.
She originally thought that it was amazing to be able to float.
Flying is a very complicated exercise, which requires both hanging in the air and floating up, moving forward and turning, and controlling speed and balance.
Even in the fields of magic and engineering technology, flying is a difficult subject.
It took a hundred years for the flying boat project to achieve initial success, which is enough to show its complexity.
But Vilia controlled it very simply. She was like a magician riding a goose, and she could fly easily by twisting the handle of the hammer wand.
"Teacher, every clay piece on this wand is useful. As long as there are enough, you can do a lot of things."
The girl rode the hammer wand and flew happily at low altitude.
"At the head of the wand, which is also the heaviest part, I reinforced a lot of clay pieces. The power they provide can push forward, just like someone is always pushing us from behind."
"There are evenly distributed clay pieces on the long handle of the wand, so it will not lose balance. The end of the wand, which is where I hold it, is similar to the reins of a horse. It can be done by gently turning it, because the power here is not sealed..."
What she said made Tina secretly shocked.
The small clay piece became a spell part with infinite functions in Vilia's hands. Just a spell ability can produce incredible qualitative changes through different combinations and arrangements.
Tina thought, she is indeed a genius.
"I envy the teacher."
Veliya's short hair fluttered in the wind: "You can do everything. You can draw blueprints, speak at least four languages, build houses, mix clay, burn bricks, use [Magic Box Garden], use elemental crystals to build various models, understand various spices, cosmetics and clothes, and master such difficult mathematics at the same time. You are an architect, understand business, and come from an enviable family... You can do everything. I just need to ask you and you will teach me."
"But I can only play with mud."
Tina was stunned. In the eyes of the other party, is she such an omnipotent person?
Maybe everyone tends to ignore what they have mastered.
Maybe there are no geniuses in this world.
Or maybe everyone in this world is a genius.
It's just that sometimes, people are like clay, living deep under the dead leaves and in the trenches and rivers on the mountains, and may never be able to enter the right workbench to play a role in their lives.
She thought.
What is the difference between the Dags and the Yao people?
Is it the difference between Odin and Yao? .
Is it the different results of inferiority and self-confidence?
Or is it the inevitable result of poverty and wealth?
Maybe both.
Tina touched Veliya's head: "Don't doubt yourself, you are a genius."
The girl said with some sadness: "I just hope my mother can recover her health."
"Don't worry."
Tina told her: "The social rule of the Yao tribe is that what kind of treatment and resources you can get depends on the ability you show. If your ability is strong enough, even the gods may treat your mother."
Veliya nodded: "I will try my best!"
Tina said: "I will report to the current apostle of Yancheng, Yanhu. At that time, you will need to state this achievement, which will enable this invention to be truly recognized and applied on a large scale, which will also help your mother get better treatment."
"Really?! Thank you, teacher!" Veliya was excited.
...
However, when this day came, Veliya stuttered and couldn't speak fluently.
The girl stood under the statue of God Yao in the temple, so nervous that she almost cried.
Her shoulders trembled slightly: "... This... I call it [Plastic Sheet], which has a strong shaping ability. It is, that, a piece made of forbidden soil, just like ordinary mud, oh no, it's a piece of clay, like a very small brick, and like a handkerchief..."
Her incoherent appearance made Tina next to her anxious.
It's not Vilia's fault.
After all, she is just a thirteen or fourteen-year-old child.
And here, everyone standing around is a famous figure.
Black Forge, the father of [Elemental Demon Realm].
Fahai, the general manager of [Flying Boat Ring Road].
Blood Hill Apostle, the legendary hero of the Yao Clan and the light of warriors Yan Jiu.
Regent of the Kingdom of Resurrection, Apostle Mao Cao.
Representative of Sand City, founder of "Sand City Gazette", and Apostle of the god [Billion Body] Yazdan.
The apostle of Zhoudao, the assistant of the god [King of Light] [Ghost Girl Lori] Neferi.
Even Philus, who was far away in the mine, rushed back just to meet with Velia to discuss [Plastics].
Among them, Yanhu, the apostle of Yancheng appointed by the Tyrant, is considered a young man and a junior.
In addition to these apostles who have left their names in history, there is also a heavyweight god sitting in the audience.
On the blood throne suspended in the center, the god [Tyrant], wearing a white bone antler helmet and a blood-colored cloak, held his chin with one hand and overlooked the entire scene.
Being watched by the gods and so many apostles, it is inevitable that people have difficulty breathing.
Tina took a deep breath and decided to help the assistant out: "Respected God, and all the apostles, I am Velia's teacher and agent Tina. She is not very good at reporting in public, please allow me to tell Velia about her discoveries and achievements."
Velia cast a grateful look.
The apostles looked at Tina.
The female architect picked up the square gray block in her hand and said, "This is a [plastic sheet]. You have all seen and tried it. Its greatest function is that it can be standardized in size and can be combined with each other like the standards of the bone project, just like a classical wooden building."
"It can carry the power of runes and maintain the power of spells for at least 15 days. As long as there is a magic bottle, it can be recharged at any time. Of course, the biggest advantage is its detachable assembly. As long as we want, we can assemble a magic wand with plastic sheets at any time and take people flying."
Tina gently grabbed the huge hammer-shaped magic wand, rode on it, and slowly floated up. As she pulled the end of the wand, the plastic wand slowly turned in the air.
This caused a lot of discussion among the apostles.
"In addition, there is this full body armor made by Vilia. Although it is a bit crude, its function is very clear."
Tina landed and took a set of wide sheet armor from the shelf on the other side, disassembled and put it on her body.
She buckled the last piece of armor belt, and the whole person slowly floated up and walked slowly up and down in the air.
"My lords, this is the [Plastic Flying Suit]. After putting it on, ordinary people can also float up."
The apostles became quiet at this time, and they fell into thought one by one, staring at the equipment on her body.
After getting confirmation, Vilia pulled Tina down with the armor belt.
Tina took off the armor skillfully and continued: "The most important thing is that this is a very strong support for the Rune. In the past, we always thought that the Rune was useless, but we used it improperly and did not discover its internal format and diverse combinations. Whether it is dragon language or Rune, only the text that can be used by the Yao people is a truly useful tool!"
There was a silence at the scene.
This is equivalent to directly denying the judgment of the apostle Longji in the past, and criticizing the Yao people's decades of thinking errors on Rune.
The apostles were also silent.
In the end, it was the skeleton apostle Philus who laughed: "Very good, you are right, Tina."
"Your experiments and results have overturned the existing Longji's judgment and inference, which is a good thing. If there is no new thing to replace the old thing, then our Yao civilization will really stagnate. The right thing must be persisted, you did a good job."
Tina was slightly relieved.
This person can be said to be the most senior apostle except Miss Isabel, and he is also the one who opened the fire age for the Yao civilization.
What Philus did is the ultimate goal pursued by all engineers - that is to lead the entire civilization to advance and change.
Tina continued: "Based on this judgment, we made a model."
Vilia took out a gray house model from the box.
After taking the small house, Tina gently rotated the twist piece below, aligned the last piece of plastic, and then let go.
The house hovered steadily in the air.
"This is a model we made in proportion to ordinary houses in Yancheng. The plastic pieces are enough to make them suspended in the air, and even a large number of flying houses can be made."
"If we can add [Elemental Magic Well] and [Magic Bottle] to it, then in theory, we can create a city that has never existed and will never fall."
As soon as the words came out, everyone was in an uproar.
The apostles began to discuss around the floating house, each with their own opinions.
"I believe that the achievements of the Yao civilization so far are inseparable from the creations of our ancestors. But now, with the plastic pieces and the expansion of rune runes, we only need the magic well and magic bottle to supply-"
Tina picked up the gray block in her hand: "We can get another power to rewrite the world."
After many apostles asked about the details, they repeated the verification one after another, and the results proved that Tina was not aimless.
On the throne, the god [Tyrant] also slowly raised his head.
"What you have made is indeed valuable."
"You can ask for anything, and I will do my best to meet any of your needs."
The tyrant's voice was cold and unquestionable.
Tina looked at the young assistant next to her and knelt on one knee: "Lord God, Vilia's mother is suffering from illness. Can she recover her health..."
The tyrant was about to say something, but suddenly He slowly stood up, raised his head and looked up: "It seems that I don't need to bother."
He bowed slightly to the air.
Tina felt a vast power enveloping her.
Tyrants have to stand up and salute... It's God Yao!
She and Vilia quickly knelt down to pray.
Then a moment later, the goddess of medicine bathed in golden light descended into the temple.
[Sekhemet], with a noble and cold face, appeared, and his voice was as clear and penetrating as the rumors.
"Don't worry, your mother's heart problem has recovered, but she still needs more rest."
Vilia was so excited that she kowtowed hard: "Thank you, great God Yao... Thank you, Goddess, thank you, Tyrant!"
Tina was relieved immediately.
God Yao actually showed up, so everything is fine.
She looked at the apostles who were arguing with red faces and louder voices, and suddenly wanted to laugh.
Nowadays, there are all kinds of problems in the Yao civilization. There are many hypocritical and annoying opportunists, there are also elites who are just filling in the numbers and are more famous than real, there are shameless people who buzz like flies and are complacent, and there are endless system comparisons and superiority... These are objective facts.
But here, as long as you keep moving forward, you will definitely reach a higher place and get closer to the sun.
The closer you get to the top of the mountain where Lord Yao is, the more and more distant scenery you can see.
Want to see the apostles swearing at each other, glaring at each other and choking each other?
Then go ahead.
