Chapter 12 Potential Evolvers

Today is the day when the canal is opened. This canal, which is about 11 kilometers long, is assigned one of Gorgat's own guards every 100 meters, holding a conspicuous yellow flag in his hand.

Ryan has been thinking about how to simulate and reproduce photoelectric signals in this era, or make the most primitive call line, but it will take some time to verify, so he can only use this oldest way of human signal transmission to tell the people stationed in the reservoir that they can open the gate to release water.

In fact, beacons can also be lit to transmit signals, but doing so will make too much noise, which will inevitably cause nearby people to misunderstand and think that there is another disaster or even an enemy attack.

This is a happy day, and the wolf smoke is not auspicious.

Gorgat stood on the high platform built in front of the original shed and began to speak impassionedly as usual.

These etiquette procedures were originally carried out when the nobles celebrated various festivals, and the location was usually in a magnificent hall full of banquets. Handsome men and beautiful women danced in formal clothes, toasting and everyone was happy.

Now, basking in the morning sun, looking at the awe and expectation in the eyes of these ordinary people, Gao Gat felt that the words he was reading were meaningless.

How long had it been since he had seen so many people gathered together?

Forget it, there is no need to waste time. Compared with reading these cumbersome words, these people are more looking forward to seeing the river water rushing in.

The nobles' castle and this canal were built by the common people themselves, but only this canal is their own.

He coughed, put away the manuscript, and said loudly: "Open the gate!"

The crowd burst into cheers, and the first guard raised the flag in his hand and waved it violently.

People stood on tiptoe and looked into the distance, watching the corresponding guards in the distance raise their flags one by one until they disappeared at a bend.

Going further, people could not see it.

How long will it take for the people in the reservoir to see the signal from the flag?

How long will it take for the water from the Agate River to flow in this canal in a tamed posture?

Ryan was not at the beginning of the ceremony. He was waiting at the water valve himself. If there was any accident with the water valve, he would use his telekinesis to push the water valve to complete the water flow of the canal.

Fortunately, he was not asked to control the entire water flow, but just to control an object similar to a large water dragon to adjust the river water in the canal. Otherwise, the huge water force might have stunned Ryan now.

However, they were lucky. Perhaps it was the blessing of the emperor. The water valve was opened smoothly. First, the pressure relief valve was loosened, and the baffles on both sides of the reservoir began to slowly open. Some of the river water that had been slowly accumulated yesterday flowed out, allowing these mechanical structures to gradually adapt to the water pressure.

Then two or three baffles were opened in turn, and the gushing river poured out, spraying out from the gaps between the four cylinders and converging into river water.

So many intermediate measures are to ensure the stable operation of the core of this canal, the water valve system. Even if there is extreme flood weather, it can temporarily resist the impact of the flood and buy time for the people downstream to escape.

Watching the water rushing down and flowing toward the end of the canal, Ryan finally breathed a sigh of relief, rode on Kamo's warhorse, and followed the pace of the river.

Bang! Bang! Snap! Whoosh——

The sound of the tip of the water waves hitting the stone bricks at every turn and every ups and downs was extremely crisp, followed by the sound of the flowing river.

When Ryan arrived at the middle of the canal, he signaled the guards to start waving the flag again and transmit signals from the middle to both sides.

The meaning of this signal was that the river was smoothly introduced into the canal without abnormalities; the reservoir position should start to shrink the water valve to control the flow of water to prevent the huge water flow from impacting the end of the canal and causing damage.

Kamo's horse could not keep up with the speed of the river flow, and Ryan probably could not see the happy faces of the old farmers and workers who saw the canal flowing for the first time.

But this is just the beginning. With this canal as the starting point, a brand new Turin will be established, bringing a huge impact across the productive class to this feudal world.

At this time, at the end of the canal, more than ten minutes had passed since the first flag signal was sent, and people were still anxiously waiting for the arrival of the river water.

Many officials and nobles who followed the lord had begun to get anxious. After all, they were pampered and had never been exposed to such weather for a long time.

Especially since they were still wearing clothes that symbolized their noble status, they would never make unceremonious movements in front of these low-class people.

However, they did not wait for long before exclamations came from the crowd.

Someone discovered that the buoys embedded in the U-shaped stone bricks on both sides to mark the water level began to vibrate, indicating that something huge was passing through the front of the canal.

"Water, it's the water of the Agate River!"

People shouted excitedly. The gullies and bricks of this canal were dug and embedded by them personally. Compared with the nobles who were only surprised at the canal's penetration, people's feelings were more profound.

At this time, people saw the guards waving flags at the end of their sight. The movement of the water flow was too fast, completely exceeding the transmission of the signal.

When the river water flows smoothly across the length of 11 kilometers to the end of the canal, the corresponding reservoir at the end of the canal begins to store water, and several buried underground water pipes are placed in the fields below and started in rows.

Each water pipe is connected to an air bag made of animal skins, and dozens of them are hung on one water pipe. The waiting farmer turned on the water valve of the water pipe. When the flowing water filled the air bag, many tiny water droplets were sprinkled from the dot-shaped gaps pierced on the surface of the air bag.

These water droplets can be well targeted for crop irrigation, and will not cause too much waste, and the coverage area is still very wide.

The water will fall on the crops in a parabola in the air, and the air near the field will also be cooler.

The first piece of land has been successfully irrigated. Continue to build reservoirs at high places along the canal, and let these irrigation pipes connect from each reservoir to cover the fields, which can solve the irrigation problem.

From now on, people will no longer need manpower to carry river water or expect rain to solve irrigation problems. They just need to walk to the water pipes between the fields and turn on the water valve.

Ryan rode his horse to the end of the canal at this time. He saw people cheering and relieved.

Fortunately, there were no accidents from beginning to end. The canal was running smoothly. After Gaogat counted the output of metal minerals in various parts of the territory, he would start to increase productivity on a large scale and bring more magnificent changes to this land.

"Ryan, did you see it? I never thought that there would be such an irrigation method. How did you do it!"

Gorgat was very excited. He rushed to the fields below and felt the water spraying from the air bags with his hands.

The nobles came over reluctantly. They hated the dust in the fields that stained their precious clothes, but it was too hot to stand on the platform above. Standing in the irrigated fields would at least be cooler.

Ryan glanced at the nobles, stood beside Gorgat and said: "In my memory, there are at least 27 noble families in Turin, big and small. How come only about half of them are here?"

Gorgat didn't get the answer he wanted, but was stumped by Ryan's question. He said helplessly:

"I sent invitations to every family with a title, but they either just let people with no status in the family come to visit, or they claimed to be sick and didn't come. Do you think I am a failure as a lord?"

Ryan laughed and said: "Not bad, at least half of them are willing to come, right? Then in the future, cooperate with these nobles present, with them personally, not their families."

If these nobles have a high status in their own families, then cooperating with them personally is cooperating with the family. If they don't have a high status, it will be interesting. Ryan likes to watch the declining children in the family make friends with resources outside, get great opportunities, and turn the tide.

"Cooperation, huh? What cooperation? What have you come up with behind my back?"

"In theory, everything on this land belongs to you. Mine is yours, and yours is mine. Don't limit your vision. The whole world will belong to you in the future."

Ryan painted a big picture for Gorgat. In the distance, Bryce was organizing people to wash the picked fruits with water from the canal and send them to these nobles.

Gorgat was very happy to take the fruit from a child, hold the child in his arms, and talk cordially with the people.

He had some impression of Bryce, the administrator, but he didn't remember it clearly. He only knew that this town did not belong to any noble territory for the time being, so he announced that this land would be under the jurisdiction of Ryan Will.

Ryan did not have any title, so he could only replace Bryce as the administrator and let the original Bryce be his adjutant.

The nobles who were loyal to the Will family realized that Ryan might become the supporter of the next lord of Turin, and he was also a controllable magician at present, so he would be valued by Gorgat.

They planned to make friends with Ryan and see if they could introduce this method of building canals and irrigation into their territory.

Although the nobles were separated from the lower class, even a fool could see the convenience that this new way of using water resources would bring, especially when built inside their own gardens, how much convenience it would bring to the lives of these nobles in summer.

They could still recognize these benefits.

The nobles had to wait until tomorrow to leave. They were arranged to rest in the most comfortable room in the town, but the living environment here still made them a little uncomfortable.

The rooms here were actually built directly with rough stones, and there were no incense or curtains. I think the mosquitoes had to be driven away by their own servants.

However, when they checked in, they were led to the newly built bathhouse, where Lord Goget was waiting for them.

How comfortable could the bathhouse here be?

The nobles were confused, but they had been in the sun for a day, and it would be uncomfortable if they didn't take a bath.

After entering this large stone house which was not open to the sky, they saw that the floor was also paved with stone bricks with a flat surface but a slight curvature at one end. Every few meters there was a circular hole covered with a metal mesh, inlaid at the end of these curvatures.

Small water pipes are distributed on both sides of the wall. Every few meters, a strange round convex platform that has never been seen before extends out, and below it is a small twistable valve similar to a water pipe regulator.

These things were built by Bryce according to the drawings drawn by Ryan during the construction of the canal. Some of the more sophisticated structures were built by Ryan himself with telekinesis.

"What the hell is this? The lord invited us here and said that this is a bathroom, but we didn't see a pool or water. Is this a joke on us!"

"Keep your voice down. Didn't you see the bottom of those convex platforms? There are many small gaps there. I think it's the same as the irrigation devices in the fields during the day. You have to twist the valve to let water flow out."

"But this place is so far away from the canal. Can they actually bring water here?"

"Just try it and you'll know."

Several nobles of higher status came to the bottom of a convex platform curiously and carefully turned on the water valve. In an instant, boiling hot water poured down, scaring them to scream.

"Gentlemen, turn to the left for hot water, and turn to the right for cold water. Adjust the temperature yourself according to what you are used to."

Gorgat walked into the bathtub with only a towel around him, and the nobles bowed.

Watching the lord walk to the innermost ledge, he calmly turned the water valve to the right position and accepted the impact of the water flow with satisfaction.

"This, this, the form of showering can be so convenient, it's simply unimaginable! My clumsy servants always waste a lot of time when adjusting the water temperature."

"You are still paying attention to this. What I am more concerned about is that they really diverted the water from the canal to the town buildings for use. This is the most critical point! If these water flows can be connected to everyone's room, how convenient it would be! I must get the design drawings of this water system and ask the lord to send craftsmen to build such a system for my castle!"

"Get away, we must let our family The family comes first, after all, we are one of the first four families to follow the Will family! "

"You old man was cursing at me this morning, saying that the Lord was crazy and invited us all to this remote place. Why are you quarreling now!"

"Wait, stop arguing. There must not be many exquisite craftsmen. Look, those bastards have already gone to find the Lord. What are we still arguing about here!"

The nobles hurriedly walked towards the Lord. Gao Gat, who was scrubbing his bath with satisfaction, turned around and looked at a group of naked men behind him. His mood almost collapsed.

Not all nobles were busy planning to improve their life experience. Those young men who originally had a bad status in the family and were just sent to make up the numbers dared to stay a little further away and experience the comfortable shower experience.

At this time, Ryan also finished his work for the day and said goodbye to Bryce and walked in, naturally coming to a place with few people.

"Lord Ryan, these water valve control structures are so ingenious that only the top craftsmen of the Will family can make them, right?"

The young man named Baker Lorian asked tentatively. The lord and his men did not have the courage to ask, but they were less stressed when talking to Ryan Will, who was also a collateral descendant.

Ryan explained the principle of this water valve structure like a teacher. As long as the principle was understood, the most superficial blacksmith could make a makeshift one.

Anyway, these ignorant noble children could only blink their confused eyes and could not understand it at all.

But there was one person who attracted Ryan's attention. He was a guy who was about seventeen or eighteen years old and had a thin physique. He had always stayed at the edge of the crowd, and he had the fewest servants today. It seemed that he was not welcomed in his family.

Compared with other young people, that guy was also very timid. He had been quietly staying under a convex shower and just listened to Ryan's story quietly.

"Qi Ming Grey Vulture, the youngest child of this generation of the Grey Vulture family, is an illegitimate child, and his mother died very early. The Grey Vulture family originally did not plan to send anyone here, and we fooled his brother to bring Qi Ming out to play."

The extroverted Baker noticed Ryan's eyes and hurriedly introduced him. It can be seen that he is very good to his friends. If Qi Ming can have some relationship with Ryan Will, who is valued by the lord, then he can be bullied less within the family.

Ryan laughed and greeted Qi Ming, who was a little at a loss.

In Ryan's eyes, this identity background, this family experience, is a perfect template for the protagonist. Maybe another unlucky person will come through at any time.

However, the Grey Vulture family, uh, seems a little familiar.

Their family was originally unwilling to send anyone here, that is, the part of the nobles who pretended to obey the Will family.

As Gao Gat said, among the families who were ready to run away when Turin got into trouble, there must be a Grey Vulture.

Hehe, let's start with the Grey Vulture Family. I'll ask the Lord to start making trouble for them and take away the mineral resources of the Grey Vulture Family.

Hmm, why did the Evolution Ring suddenly react at this time? Damn, this feeling——!

Ryan suddenly stared at Qi Ming's waist. This guy is also a potential Ajita!

This guy is the original protagonist!
