Extraordinary Mechanical City

"Oh, damn it. I passed out at the time, and I didn't see what the savior looked like."

"Father, I remember that the Coleman soldier who rescued you had a moon and a snake on his face totem."

"My son, although our Brown family is poor, we are not people who don't want to reciprocate. Go, give the excellent sword left by your grandfather to the brave man, he saved my old bone We should repay him for his life. Oh, I hope that warrior will not be too young to be too small."

"."

Old Brown's ancestors were all blacksmiths, and he has also learned some simple mechanical knowledge over the years. Later, I was fortunate enough to become the servant of a certain knight under the eldest princess, responsible for doing some simple maintenance of the knight's armor and machinery.

But in the monster siege just now, he unfortunately became the unlucky guy who was taken away by the flying dragon as food.

He thought he was going to die, and was grabbed by the giant dragon's claws like iron tongs. The fear and suffocation made him faint.

Then, when he woke up, he was in the hospital.

The son and the yellow-faced lady at home told him that he was just lucky with two broken ribs.

Then, after hearing that it was Coleman warriors who rescued him, Old Brown couldn't lie down any longer.

Ren and Ymir returned to the city, and Udo went to deal with the captured flying dragons.

This time the flying dragon attacked the inner city and caused a lot of damage. As the city lord and prime minister, he and Ymir naturally went to check the situation.

But walking on the street, he was suddenly stopped by someone.

It was a family of three, like a mother and child supporting an injured middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man has a beard and an old face, wearing coarse linen and a leather apron covered with iron filings. The most eye-catching is his pair of callused hands. Looking at the mountain is not like holding a sword, but more like holding a hammer.

Ren realized that this was an old blacksmith.

The middle-aged man with a slightly pale face came over and respectfully saluted his chest, "Dear Princess, forgive the offense of a vulgar blacksmith. But I really need your help."

Ymir was stopped by someone, and he didn't show any strangeness.

She looked at the man, smiled slightly, and asked, "What's the matter, Mr. Brown?"

When Old Brown heard this, his expression was obviously taken aback for a moment.

He suddenly forgot what he was going to say, and exclaimed with a look of flattery, "Oh! Your Royal Highness, you actually remember my name?"

"Yes. I remember that you are a very good blacksmith. Your forging skills are great. The interior officer mentioned it to me."

When talking, Ymir had a smile on his face that made people feel refreshed, and asked again: "Did you encounter any difficulties?"

"Oh, my God, the eldest princess actually remembers my name."

Old Brown became a little incoherent with excitement, and kept repeating this sentence in his mouth.

And the son and wife beside him also had an unbelievably stiff expression on their faces. They never expected that Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess would remember the name of an ordinary craftsman.

"yes, I remember."

Ymir showed a kind smile, then looked at the half-grown young man who was supporting him, and said, "This is your son Karen, right? I remember he signed up for the first session of our 'Black Dragon Academy'." Mechanic class. Study hard in the future, I think he will become an excellent mechanic."

Hearing that the Eldest Princess not only remembered her own name, but also her son's name, Old Brown finally couldn't hold back his tears, rolling down to the ground like soybeans.

He said with snot and tears: "Oh! Your Royal Highness, the eldest princess. Little Karen told me a long time ago that he no longer wants to be a blacksmith for the rest of his life like his incompetent father, but wants to be a blacksmith. He is a real mechanic. But his poor family can never earn enough money to send him to a mechanic shop as an apprentice. You are kind enough to give my son Karen a chance to become a real mechanic."

As he spoke, he clutched the stinging wound, prostrated himself on the ground excitedly, and kissed the ground in front of Ymir's feet.

The son and wife behind him also knelt down.

In other territories, "knowledge" is the privilege held by the nobles, and it is also the means by which they control the learned commoners.

The common people simply do not have the opportunity and means to receive the education of the academy. No aristocratic academy would enroll civilian students.

The only way they want to become machinist apprentices is to spend a lot of money online, find acquaintances and let the machinists in some machinery shops in the territory take them as apprentices, and be free apprentices for ten or eight years, in order to learn some knowledge. Introductory mechanical knowledge.

This is how old Brown came here. When he was young, he was lucky to earn a fortune as a wild hunter and learned some rough mechanical knowledge. Then because of this craft, the days of starvation and starvation ended, and he married a wife and had children.

But now, he is old, unable to hunt wilderness anymore, and also unable to create the same opportunities for his son

Originally, he thought that his son would follow the same old path and be an ordinary blacksmith all his life. But I didn't expect that coming to Black Dragon City was a choice that changed the fate of the whole family.

Ymir quickly wanted to help the simple old blacksmith, and said: "Everyone can have everything in front of us, not only because of me, but also the Lord Rennes and everyone who contributed to the construction of this city. This Black Dragon City , will be the common home of all of us in the future, and it will become more and more beautiful.”

But she hadn't helped the three members of the blacksmith's family in front of her, and the three members of the old Prang family's kneeling, which seemed to have triggered a chain reaction. The sound is like a tide, one wave is higher than the other.

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness, the eldest princess."

"His Royal Highness, Lord of the City, I praise you for your kindness. Because of you two, our descendants have the opportunity to learn valuable knowledge. Our descendants will always remember this great kindness"

"."

Some of these craftsmen are the subjects of the eldest princess, and some are recruited from other places. Before coming to Black Dragon City, they didn't know what kind of city they would participate in building.

At first, they thought it was just another place to be exploited, but they never thought that they came to a place that they thought was like a dream.

Not only is there no high tax here, but the common people have the rights enjoyed by nobles and rich people in other territories.

Medical care, education. They are all free!

It was like a pie falling from the sky, and all the citizens felt the real benefits.

In other territories, the high taxes of the nobles exploited most of the wealth created by their labor. Those nobles would rather have the grain in the granary eaten by rats than distribute moldy food to civilians like them.

But everyone feels that this has been the case for generations, and it should be the case, because they are civilians.

In the past, when they were sick, they dared not call a doctor at all. Because the high expenses will make the already poor families worse.

But in Black Dragon City, they found that as long as they worked, they could get what they deserved. Even if you earn a hundred copper lisos, you will not be siphoned away by the tax collector for eighty. They can get ninety and put them in their pockets, food and clothing, and even have money left over to enjoy the rum in the tavern.

This allowed the craftsmen to discover for the first time that they could fight for the future with their own hands, instead of being ruthlessly exploited and squeezed by others, unable to stand up for generations

This is why it is so dangerous to open up wasteland and build cities in the "Kalateva Basin", and they are also very motivated and working hard.

More importantly, he feels alive and respected now.

Will other lords remember the name of a commoner?

Ren looked at everything in front of him, his expression remained unchanged, but a strange color flashed in his heart. He felt that in the eyes of those craftsmen, Ymir probably exuded a layer of holy light at this moment.

Not only those bystanders, but even Ren himself was moved.

Ymir's outstanding internal affairs ability is confirmed to be extremely amazing.

Ymir said to everyone: "Everyone, please stand up. This is everything you have created with your hands. This is what you deserve. We need to work harder in the future. I believe that we will be even better after the Black Dragon leads us. !"

"Long live the city lord, long live the eldest princess."

In the crowd, a flood of praise and cheers broke out again.

After a long time, the boiling emotions subsided.

Ymir was also very patient. She waited for the old blacksmith to lose his shortness of breath, then smiled and asked, "Mr. Brown, you haven't told me yet, what do you need me to do for you?"

"Oh, almost forgot!"

After calming down from the excitement, Old Brown slapped his head violently, and then he remembered the business, and said, "I was captured by the flying dragon just now. I heard from my children that it was the Coleman warriors who saved my life. Therefore, I want to give this sword to that soldier as a reward for saving his life. But I don't speak Coleman, so...I just thought of coming to trouble you, Your Highness the Princess."

"I'll help you."

When Ymir heard this, he realized why he was still wrapped in hospital gauze.

She laughed and asked again: "But do you remember what that soldier looked like?"

Old Brown said: "Yes, my son remembers. That warrior has a moon and a snake on his face"

Hearing this, Ymir and Renn looked at each other.

"Okay, let's go together," she said again.

Old Brown took the most precious iron sword in his family, and as a thank-you gift for saving his life, he came to the shantytown of the Coleman tribe that he had never stepped into.

And behind him, not only his son and wife, but also the artisans and family members who were rescued by Coleman's soldiers just now came along.

Coleman fighters didn't understand why so many people from Omar suddenly came to their place of residence at first, and they also stepped out of the thatched hut to check.

Later, after Ren told them, everyone understood.

Udo asked for help, and also found the Coleman warrior named "Mata" who saved the life.

Marta accepted the gift from Brown Sr. and gave a gift in return.

The relationship between the two parties was suddenly drawn closer because of today's flying dragon attacking the city.

The Colemans make new friends and they celebrate with a big bonfire dinner.

Originally, Ymir invited the elders of the tribe to a dinner, but because of this incident, it became a carnival for the entire city.

As night fell, hundreds of huge bonfires were lit in the open space in the city. The Coleman hunting team hunted and killed dozens of giant earth dragons, and Omar's people also brought mashed potatoes, bread and cheese, and delicious wine.

The tens of thousands of people in Black Dragon City had a carnival.

No matter the Coleman or the Omar people, although they do not understand the language, they sang and danced, witnessing the growing friendship between us through singing and dancing.

It was also the first time for Ymir to participate in such a passionate bonfire party, and she still maintained the reservedness and reservedness of a princess. Originally, she was just watching quietly from the sidelines, but she was pulled by Udo, and together with Ren, they danced Coleman's war dance around the fire.

The palace ball was not so wild, and he couldn't break free. Ymir also enjoyed this kind of flame-like dance for the first time, dancing heartily.

The flames reflected red and bright faces, and everyone laughed like a group of children.

Tired of dancing, ate barbecue.

Ymir invited Udo and Rain to her apartment.

Dined on a well-prepared dessert and shared her favorite favorites.

Udo also witnessed the ultimate luxury of human civilization for the first time, and for the first time she lay on a big velvet bed that she could sink into

Following Coleman's custom, Ymir kept Udo and Ren to stay overnight.

But it's not a room for three people, there are enough vacant rooms in the apartment.

But in the middle of the night, Ren still felt a "sneaky" figure open his door.

Not long after, a warm and delicate body sneaked into his quilt.

The timid voice told him that this was the most comfortable bed she had ever slept in in her life.

However, she said sadly that she was not used to sleeping.

She still likes the forest best.

Then as he spoke, tears streamed down his face.
