The first award ceremony lasted until noon. Roland, who was also a contributor, commentator and host, was exhausted until the end. Fortunately, the ceremony finally concluded with the bell ringing and salute at noon.
He returned to the castle with a sweat on his head. As soon as he stepped onto the third floor, he saw Anna leaning against the office door with a smile on his face.
What's wrong?
You will know when you go in, she blinked her beautiful lake blue eyes.
It wasn't a prank show, right? Roland pushed open the door in confusion, and then stood there in a daze and saw the twelve witches standing neatly in two rows, with Shu Shu and Wendy in the front.
Seeing the prince appear, everyone lifted the corners of their skirts together, bent their knees and bowed to salute.
Ahem, you guys are...
The book was the first to speak, Your Highness, your actions prove everything you said, and the sisters are deeply grateful for this.No words can describe our gratitude, so please let us continue to serve you in the future.
So that's it, Roland breathed a sigh of relief. I thought you were going to say goodbye together.
Puchi, Wendy couldn't help laughing out loud, how could it be, Your Highness, this is the holy mountain that the witch dreamed of.As long as you don't drive us away, we hope to live here forever.
And this is what I want to see... In fact, you don’t have to do this. I am not only helping you, but also helping myself.Don't be too serious, I prefer your relaxed and at ease.
Humph, I just said that there is no need to be formal like this, Lily snorted, "Look, he thinks we are too serious."
There is no saying that you agreed immediately, did you agree? My Moon muttered in a low voice, Traitor!
Okay, let’s go to the restaurant first. Your Highness has to change his clothes. Shujuan helplessly holds his forehead. By the way, I heard from Miss Anna that you have slept very late recently?Please take care of yourself, and you must not fall until that goal is achieved.
Don't worry, Roland smiled, I'm in great health.
After the witches came out one after another, he and Anna were the only ones left in the office.
What, do you want to express your gratitude to me?Roland teased her.
Well... I want to say the same as them, Anna raised her lips, and no words could describe my gratitude.
Then... I hope to live in Bianfeng Town all the time?
That's not necessarily true.
Roland was stunned, and his heart was shocked. Why?
Because you won't stay here all the time, Anna tilted her head, ...and wherever you go, I will always follow you.
A warm current suddenly surged in his heart, and her thoughts had never changed since the day he met her.
Whether in the face of the invitation from the Co-Aid Association or the critical moment of fighting against the evil beast, she chose to stand with herself.
At this moment, Anna suddenly took two steps forward and gently hugged him.
Wait, there is sweat.Roland reminded.
The girl did not answer, but put her head on his chest, as if she wanted to write down the smell, and took a deep breath.
He finally gave up the idea of pushing her away, put his hands on the other party's fair neck, and never let it go for a long time.
……
After lunch, Roland took a cold shower and quickly got into work.
He called Carl Vanbert, spread out the detailed map of the border town, and pointed to the location of the Chishui River, where I wanted to build a bridge.
Not a pontoon bridge?Carl thought for a moment and said, please forgive me for yourselves, Your Highness, the Chishui River is nearly 100 meters wide, and it is almost impossible to build a stone bridge. Even an arch bridge can only cross one-third of the distance at most. The water flow of the Chishui River is extremely large, and the piers cannot be settled. Even a stone pile as thick as a person will be washed down... Except for the raft crossing and the floating bridge, there is no bridge on the entire river.
It was not a stone bridge, but a steel bridge, Roland explained, there were three spans in total, and there would be a witch to solve the piers in the middle.You just need to set up its guide bridge in place in advance.But I asked to raise the entire bridge body at the bridgehead so that the inland sailboat would pass through the masts would not touch the bottom of the bridge.
Didn’t that put the bridge in the sky?Carl said in surprise.
It was just about six or seven meters above the ground. He drew a schematic diagram of the three-span iron bridge on the sketch. In order to better develop the south bank and dock construction in the future, there must be a bridge on the river that does not affect the passage of the ship.Although the pontoon bridge is simple, it itself is equivalent to blocking the river channel, which is not conducive to subsequent development.
The First Army Expeditionary Team's trip to the capital gave Roland a lot of inspiration. He found that the rivers in Grayburg were well-connected, and major cities were basically built next to several major rivers.
If domestic combat is launched in the future and several shallow water heavy artillery boats are definitely a weapon to provide fire support and siege and land grabbing. After all, the power of naval guns, known for their caliber, is far beyond that of field guns.
If he wanted to build a ship, he had to have a dock first, so the plan for a steel bridge came into being.
But I don’t have experience in building bridges like bridges… Carl seemed a little hesitant.
I didn't, either, Roland shrugged, just pretending it was the first time to explore it slowly. You can first set up a bridge on the shore for testing, and then move to the Chishui River when there is no problem. He instilled the construction concept of overall prefabricated and one-time lifting into the other party. Just like installing a water tower, there is a hummingbird to reduce its weight, and your student Anna helps with assembly and welding, it will not be difficult.
Obey... the order, Your Highness.He nodded.
In addition, there is another very important project to hand over to you. The prince moved his finger to the castle area. I plan to expand the size of the backyard and enclose all the vacant land on the high ground, and build a three-story building here.
If all goes well, Tilly's five witches will arrive in the border town next month, and there are no extra rooms in the castle.
Although it can be temporarily changed to a room of three people, there will always be more and more witches in the future, and it is impossible to keep making do with it.
A superior living environment and various novel and comfortable experiences are also one of his strategies to retain witches. Whether it is the ancients' difficulty in getting from extravagant to frugality or the modern theory of sugar-coated bullets, a beautiful and comfortable life can always make people obsessed with it.
Three-story...brick house?
It is not entirely a brick house. Roland smiled. Its name should be called a brick-concrete structure. The columns and roof beams are poured from reinforced concrete, just like human bones.This structure can make the house taller, and it will be fine to build it on the fourth or fifth floors in the future.
Reinforced bars...concrete?Carl repeated with a confused look on his face.
It is a mixture of cement, sand and gravel. Rebars are implanted in the middle to strengthen its bending resistance. He said, of course, the specific amount of each ingredient is mixed with, and if the configuration is successful, it is even stronger than natural bluestone.
Theoretically, this kind of thing has a very large elastic space in quality. It is also concrete. It is bought in rural areas to configure it by itself, which is completely different from the measurement configuration of mixing stations.
The same is true for steel bars... Some people even don’t put pebbles when building their own houses on homesteads, or use iron wire or bamboo instead of steel bars. When Roland was in the countryside, he witnessed several country villas rising from the ground.
And he also planned to follow this, after all, it was just a three-story house, and no matter how hard it was to cut corners, it would be difficult to collapse.
In addition, he hopes to allow Carl to master this kind of building material that can change its shapes randomly and be as perfect as artificial stone through the Witch Residential Building Project.
As one of the development directions of the construction industry, concrete accounts for almost half of the market.
He was not proficient in architecture, and he knew the little bit of fur he learned from the countryside. Therefore, it is the right way to broaden the horizons of stonemasons and lead them to the right path.
Uh... does this also make me exploring slowly?He asked.
No, Roland smiled slightly, I can teach you this.
He returned to the castle with a sweat on his head. As soon as he stepped onto the third floor, he saw Anna leaning against the office door with a smile on his face.
