Rebirth from Another World: Creating a Happy Life
Volume 2 Imperial Capital Volume A happy life begins with eating and drinking 28
The man who led Xu Zheng and Xiao Bangjia into the house took a step forward and shouted: "Sit down!"
The short-bearded dwarf glared at the man angrily before sitting down reluctantly. As he turned his eyes, he glanced at Xu Zheng and Xiao Bangga, with the same look of disgust in his eyes.
The dwarf with a dark gray beard looked much calmer. He put down the forging tool in his hand and said, "Is there anything that can't be made?"
The man said: "This guest has a drawing in his hand. You can make the thing according to his requirements. You can discuss the specific details and let me know what materials are needed after you decide. If it is well made, I will send more.
Bring more wine."
The short-bearded dwarf snorted and said: "There is no need to make wine a condition. We are not human beings. The God of Forging is above, and no dwarf will not try his best when making it." [
The man was suffocated, his face a little confused, he accused Xu Zheng and left the room.
Xu Zheng and Xiao Bangjia looked at each other. Neither of them knew how to deal with a race they had never seen before. They stayed where they were for a moment, not knowing what to do. Xu Zheng looked at the shackles on the two dwarves, but
Some people feel a little unfair to these two dwarves. The so-called crime of harboring a treasure is that these two dwarves were captured as slaves because of their good forging skills. They were treated like prisoners, with their hands and feet shackled. Humans.
, is really a complex and contradictory race with deep evil roots. Xu Zheng couldn't help but secretly shake his head, feeling a little disappointed in his own race.
Human beings always seem to be like this. It is not uncommon throughout human history to bully other races in order to satisfy their own desires. Wasn't this the case in Xu Zheng's previous life? With the rapid development of science and technology, in terms of objective survival conditions, humans themselves are aggressive.
For subjective reasons, human beings have been expanding colonies outwards with the Milky Way and Solar System as the center. There are many disputes internally, and there is no peace for a day. Until another powerful race crossed the edge of the universe and attacked, the entire human race was oppressed by external forces.
They were forced to form an interstellar alliance to fight against foreign enemies. It's ridiculous, isn't it? What really makes all mankind join forces is not mankind itself, but the powerful enemy who is pressing the situation and feels the crisis of survival and has to do it. Alas, mankind, Xu Zheng thought in his heart
Qingqing, when can we truly unite as one, not bully the weak and fear the strong, and show our true glory as the overlord of the earth?
Seeing that Xu Zheng had lowered his head in silence for a long time, Xiao Bangka raised his elbow to Xu Zheng and said, "Brother Xu Zheng?"
"Huh?" Xu Zheng was slightly startled before he woke up from his introspection. When he saw little Banga and the two dwarves looking at him, he couldn't help but smile apologetically.
Seeing that they were two human teenagers, the attitude of the dwarves was not as bad as before. The gray-bearded dwarf even said in a tone that was close to calm: "Humans, what do you want to build? Bring me the blueprints.
"
Little Banga was a little scared when he looked at the thick chains on the two dwarves, and leaned close to Xu Zheng. Xu Zheng smiled and stepped forward to hand over the drawings.
The gray-bearded dwarf only glanced at the blueprint and let out a soft sigh. He dragged the thick chain to the limit and walked into the sunshine before looking at the blueprint in his hand carefully. He waited until he saw the second one.
Eyes, I couldn't help but let out another sigh.
The short-bearded dwarf felt something was wrong, so he stood up and asked his companion, "What's wrong?"
The gray-bearded dwarf's hands trembled, and he said in confusion: "It's an exploded view of the dwarf!"
The short-bearded dwarf jumped up with a roar, rushed towards Xu Zheng, and shouted: "Despicable! Catch the dwarfs too!" He rushed with such an amazing momentum, his whole face was angry, and Xu Zheng was also frightened, and couldn't help but
He took a few steps back.
The short-bearded dwarf only took a few steps to straighten the chain. He could not move forward anymore and only stared at Xu Zheng with a pair of bull's eyes.
The gray-bearded dwarf stopped him: "Don't be impulsive. This drawing doesn't look like it was made by a dwarf. It seems -" He looked at it carefully for a few more times and said, "It needs to be much more detailed." He turned to look at Xu Zheng, gently.
Said: "Human, where did this drawing come from?"
Xu Zheng said: "I drew it myself." He was secretly looking forward to it. He used the standard engineering mechanics drawing method to draw the three-dimensional view. The dwarf recognized it at a glance.
The short-bearded dwarf looked at Xu Zheng with contempt and said: "Can you humans draw such a thing? Come on, the god of wisdom gave the dwarf all the wisdom, and the god of forging gave the dwarf exquisite forging skills. Humans
Then greed and cruelty are obtained from chaotic beliefs."
Little Banga was a little angry and bold, and said loudly: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Xu Zheng pulled Xiao Banga. To a certain extent, the dwarf was not wrong. Although the words were unpleasant, they did speak to the bad nature of human beings throughout history. This is a refutation.
The gray-bearded dwarf stopped his companion and asked again: "Human, was this drawing really made by you?"
Xu Zheng nodded, picked up an iron piece on the iron, and started drawing casually. This time, what he drew was no longer just the three views of the main structure looking down to the left, but the two views looking up and right together.
Draw it. These two views are generally not used in regular mechanical drawing applications. In order to prove that the drawing was designed by himself, Xu Zheng also drew it according to the projection relationship. If it was not too troublesome, he even planned to
Draw a three-axis perspective obliquely at 45 degrees.[
The short-bearded dwarf kept watching, and the expression on his face slowly changed from contempt to surprise, and finally to conviction.
The gray-bearded dwarf sighed and said: "This technology has always been the unique skill of dwarves. I didn't expect humans to also master this technology. No wonder we non-human races will always be oppressed. I have to say that you humans are indeed
The race with the greatest potential for development.”
Hearing what his companion said, the short-bearded dwarf just snorted and said nothing, but the frustrated expression appeared on his face.
Xu Zheng felt guilty and said: "There are actually not many people who have mastered this technology." If you guessed correctly, he is probably the only one who knows this advanced exploded view.
The gray-bearded dwarf looked at the view and said with some desolation: "Don't you know how to do it? I believe that this technology will be spread among humans in the continent of Aris soon." He smiled a little sadly: "I'll take it.
I don’t know how powerful humans with such advanced technology will become. We non-human races will have no place to stand.”
Xu Zheng was startled and couldn't help but feel confused. Is the progress of science and technology good or bad? He didn't know. Taking the past life as an example, the progress of science and technology has indeed improved human beings' ability to survive and transform nature on the one hand, but on the other hand it has
Pollution, war, invasion and expansion are also the products of scientific and technological progress that worsen the living environment of mankind, and are constantly being upgraded with the advancement of science and technology.
Seeing a thoughtful look in Xu Zheng's eyes that a young man should not have, the gray-bearded dwarf was a little surprised. However, this surprise did not last long, and the gray-bearded dwarf said: "Human, since you designed this thing
, just tell us the details, and we’ll see if we can make it. I hope you can have the wisdom of a dwarf. Although we dwarves are favored by the God of Forging, we are only good at processing and manufacturing, and many of them are truly handed down from generation to generation.
It’s a masterpiece, but the original design came from a family of dwarfs who were small but poor in wisdom.”
Only then did Xu Zheng regain his composure and began to explain his design ideas and requirements in detail.
At this time, the two dwarves showed their true qualities as excellent craftsmen. In front of the work they loved, they temporarily forgot about the conflicts between races and discussed with Xu Zheng. The short-bearded dwarf was still watching indifferently, but slowly realized that Xu Zheng
Not only was his relevant knowledge no worse than that of his two dwarves, but there were faint signs of transcendence, he unknowingly joined in and started a discussion, gradually showing his unique passion for craftsmanship as a craftsman.
Time passed quickly, the angle of the sunlight continued to change, and the atmosphere between the three people became closer and closer. Xu Zheng lay on the ground, pointing to the location where the wine pipe and the steamer were connected on the pattern copied to the ground, and said
: "Will it be difficult to seal here?"
The short-bearded dwarf said: "It is difficult, mainly because the bending angle is relatively large. But if pure copper is added to the casting raw materials, the toughness of the material will increase, making it easier to bend. Anyway, this part does not require too high strength.
It’s possible. I recommend using an iron rim and red copper structure for the bottom of the pot, which makes it easier to transfer heat.”
Xu Zheng nodded and wrote it down on the sheepskin. He was not that familiar with the material in this world and was far less knowledgeable than the dwarves.
The gray-bearded dwarf said: "I'm not sure that the ball valve you mentioned can be made well. I made another kind of valve for the dwarf before. Do you think you can replace it with that one?" As he said that, he began to explain the structure designed by the dwarf.
A much simpler, but less reliable valve.
Xu Zheng understood it and thought it was feasible, so he replaced his original design with this valve.
The short-bearded dwarf added: "I don't agree with the design of the sealed lid. Once a thing is made, it can be used many times before it is reasonable and effective. If the lid is sealed, it will cause difficulties in cleaning and maintenance. We should consider using a removable lid.
Replacement of disassembled cover.”
Xu Zheng considered that rubber had not appeared, so he said: "How about making a circle of soft lead, adding a cover on top and fastening it with a buckle? Although lead is poisonous, it can be wrapped with copper sheets, so there should be no problem."
“Chamfer buckle or finger press buckle?”
Xu Zheng didn't know much about this craft, so he asked two people to draw it and have a look. Finally, he chose acupressure buttons.
The two dwarves nodded and thought it was good. The plan was finalized again.
After several discussions, Xu Zheng's original design was simplified a lot due to the unsatisfactory craftsmanship. The four-layer compound distillation was directly simplified into two layers; the single seal was replaced with a double seal; the tower shape was changed to a straight column.
The process is simplified; in order to meet the requirements, the heat transfer of the internal water is changed to the second injection of hot water into the pot to form double hot water heat conduction. In short, there are many changes. In conjunction with the current process, the premise is to not affect the quality of the wine as much as possible.
Try to simplify the process as much as possible. The three of them discussed it for nearly an entire afternoon before finally finalizing the entire design.
Looking at the final design drawing, Xu Zheng was very satisfied. He liked this atmosphere very much. A group of people communicated on an equal footing, each expressing their strengths and working hard for a common goal. The dwarf really deserves to be a person who is good at processing and
The race of manufacturing is like the creative power given to them by the God of Forging truly flowing in their bodies. When facing the drawings and processing technology, they are so serious, so serious that they can forget that the other party is a hostile race, and they can
By making things together, the gap between the two was eliminated. At this time, they really regarded Xu Zheng as a working partner, communicating on an equal footing and discussing together. This kind of character is extremely cute.
And for this simple and pure race, some people chained them up as slaves, how cruel it was. Xu Zheng's eyes were fixed on the iron chains of the two dwarves, and suddenly his heart was pounding.[
After trying hard to swallow the drool that was accelerating due to nervousness, Xu Zhengqiang said calmly: "How many days will it take to make it?"
The gray-bearded dwarf thought for a while and said: "There is no shortage of materials in the sharp blade, and there are also some ready-made molds. Moreover, this steamer is not big, but there are more details, but overall the workload is not large. If it is the two of us
, it can be built in two days. If the humans in the blade cooperate with us, it will only take one day!"
The short-bearded dwarf also nodded, showing an expression of confidence and pride in his craftsmanship.
Looking at the two faces that were so selfless because of their work, Xu Zheng's blood surged up, and he suddenly blurted out: "Then for two days, don't call for help. If I can draw another key adjustment diagram, you can
Are you sure it can be made?"
The two dwarves were startled, confused by Xu Zheng's sudden jump of thought. But little Banga understood, and said in shock: "Are you going to rebel? If you secretly release a private slave, something will happen!"
Xu Zheng raised his head, looked at little Banga intently, and said: "Do you agree with the practice of raising slaves? I remember that when Uncle Carlo talked about the dwarves, you were also full of yearning and curiosity for them, saying that you wanted to go too.
Look at this magical race in the mountains. If you lock them up here like dogs, will you feel at ease?"
Xiao Bangjia was at a loss for words for a moment, pouted, and then said after a while: "I'm going to find trouble."
Having already decided what to do, Xu Zheng calmed down and smiled: "Are we friends?"
Little Banga nodded affirmatively.
Xu Zheng said: "That's good. I don't ask you to help me. You just have to turn a blind eye and pretend you don't know anything. Besides, that fat pig in Sinduonuo is so annoying, so let him create
A little loss is also a pleasure."
Little Bangjia stared at Xu Zheng, feeling that he was extremely audacious. He wanted to laugh, but he couldn't. He was very panicked, but mixed with an inexplicable excitement, which made him feel confused.
After hearing this, the two dwarves realized what Xu Zheng was planning to do. The short-bearded dwarf looked at Xu Zheng in disbelief and said excitedly: "You mean, you want to help me escape on my own?"
Xu Zheng smiled slyly: "No, I'm just creating conditions for you, and you can find your own way to escape. What materials are needed to make the key?"
"Lead, silotite, and a small amount of red gold." The gray-bearded dwarf said: "The materials are controlled very tightly. These three things are precious and there cannot be too much."
Xu Zheng smiled slightly and said: "I remember that these three materials are used in this steamer, right?"
Both dwarves nodded.
Xu Zheng picked up the pen and drew a dwarf angle valve like the one mentioned by the gray-bearded dwarf on the inside of the sheepskin pot.
The gray-bearded dwarf watched Xu Zheng continue to draw, frowned and said: "It's unnecessary, this is not necessary-"
Xu Zheng interrupted him and said: "It is indeed unnecessary, but instead of making this valve, wouldn't it be better to use the material used to make it to make two keys? If I am not wrong, the chains you are wearing must have the same key.
What opens the door is a different kind of key, just two keys."
The short-bearded dwarf suddenly understood. He looked at the gray-bearded dwarf with joy, then turned back to look at Xu Zheng and said: "You humans are cunning." This time, the word cunning no longer has a derogatory connotation.
"Thank you for the compliment." Xu Zheng smiled and winked at little Bangga. Little Bangga hesitated for a while, and finally walked to the door, looked around for a while, and said in a low and nervous voice: "No one is there."
Xu Zheng quickly walked over to the two dwarves to check the locks on their bodies, and then went to study the locks that locked the door. Finally, he came to a simple conclusion. The structures of these two locks were quite simple, with only one rotating shaft and three
A chute. The two dwarves let something like this get trapped here. Xu Zheng couldn't help but shake his head.
The short-bearded dwarf became nervous and said, "What? Is it difficult?"
Xu Zheng shook his head and said: "As long as you understand the principle, with your dwarves' casting skills, it is really simple to make a key." After sliding the lock with his finger to confirm that his idea was correct, he turned back and drew
He got a key with a long handle and three teeth, and asked two dwarves to remember it before wiping it off with their feet.
The two dwarves were very excited and looked at Xu Zheng with grateful eyes.
Xu Zheng was about to speak when he heard little Banga shouting loudly from outside: "Oh, you're here, we've almost finished discussing it." As soon as he finished speaking, little Banga came in from outside the room accompanied by the man who led the two people in earlier.
Xiao Bangjia was a child after graduation. Although his face was serious, when he glanced at Xu Zheng, his fingers were subconsciously twisted together, and there was a slight sweat on his forehead.
Xu Zheng immediately smiled and said: "Yes, it's almost done. When will it be finished?" He turned his back to block the man's eyes, and stretched out two fingers on his waist with his left hand.
The gray-bearded dwarf understood and said, "Two days."
Xu Zheng turned around, deliberately frowned, and said: "Two days? It's a bit slow."
The man said: "I'll invite someone to help, it should speed up the process."
Xu Zheng shook his head and said: "No need. This thing of mine requires relatively high craftsmanship, so let's just let these two dwarves make it." After that, he led little Banga and turned around to leave.
"Wait a minute!" The gray-bearded dwarf stopped Xu Zheng, looked at him intently, and said: "The appearance of humans is very similar to that of dwarves. What is your name?"
"Xu Zheng." Xu Zheng walked forward without looking back, chatting intentionally with the people around him, and said: "This pot is used by Yuanye Tavern. Although we are residents of Xiacheng District, we do not allow the pattern to be spread.
Go out and I'll pick it up in two days, together with the drawings, and no word can be spread about it, okay? As for the remuneration, we..."
The sound of conversation gradually faded away, and the gray-bearded dwarf looked at his companions, showing the most cheerful smile since he became a slave, and said: "Very interesting humans, aren't they?"
The short-bearded dwarf said: "My name is Xu Zheng. I remember the Wilderness Tavern in Xiacheng District."!~!
