Working Prophet

A look of suspicion flashed across Wang Guowei's face, but he didn't insist anymore, and then went upstairs with Li Yu.

Back at the place where he lived, Li Yu first took the shower and washed his feet, and washed his socks and shoes along the way.

After going out, he saw that Wang Guowei did not go back to the house to play games as usual. Instead, he was sitting on the IKEA sofa in the living room, looking thoughtful. He said seriously when he saw Li Yu coming out.

"Brother Li, tell me honestly, have you found a new job, have you been pretending to be at work recently?"

"Why do you say that?" Li Yu said while wiping his feet with a towel.

"Because you've been acting very strange recently. You go out in a suit and tie every morning, but you don't work overtime anymore. You go home from work early, cook your own meals, and exercise on time... No matter how you look at it, you look like you're pretending to be strong after losing your job. middle-aged man."

"The problem is who am I pretending to be strong for, you?" Li Yu asked back.

"What you said seems to make sense." Wang Guowei was taken aback, paused, and then said, "Then you just..."

"Do you want to hear the truth? The truth is that I want to see if I can walk on water." Li Yu admitted frankly.

"Cut!" Wang Guowei returned his middle finger directly, but he relaxed a little.

…………

Li Yu didn't know how to evaluate the second godhead sequence he had obtained.

From the current point of view, the advantage is that it is difficult for him to be drowned again, and the disadvantage is that he seems to be insulated from all water sports.

He can no longer enjoy bathing, swimming and even footbath.

It's hard to say which one is greater, especially for a modern person living in a civilized society. As long as he doesn't always swim in the river, the probability of drowning is actually not too high.

But the matter has come to this point, Li Yu asked Hephaestus, after the Godhead Sequence is activated, there is no way to go back, so he can only let it go.

After spending a few days researching his new abilities and props, Li Yu turned his attention back to the work at hand.

With the unremitting efforts of several stonemasons and carpenters, the first windmill on the continent of Bratis took one and a half months and was finally declared complete.

Even though Li Yu provided the design drawings in advance, he still encountered many problems during the actual construction process. Fortunately, during the two-week break, many technical talents were attracted to join.

Everyone worked together and finally built the magical mill described by the prophet Merlin that does not require humans or animals and can be driven only by the power of the wind.

On the day when the windmill was built, everyone put down their work and came to watch.

The huge cross sail quickly started to rotate under the blow of the north wind. The rotating axle drove the stone mill below to grind the wheat inside into flour.

In just one hour, more than 400 catties of flour were ground. When Hera announced the final figure, the crowd couldn't help but let out a sound of amazement.

The lizard people are not bad. They are novices in farming. They cannot grow wheat in the swamp. No one usually grinds flour, so naturally they will not suffer from the pain of grinding flour.

But for other farmers who come to work on a double holiday, harvesting crops every year is just the beginning of hard work. After that, they have to dry, shell, and grind.

Normally, the mills on the territory were owned by the lord. If civilians or serfs wanted to use them, they had to pay taxes or use labor to offset them.

Most people will choose the latter method, which means that they not only have to grind their own part of the wheat, but also grind their grain for the nobles who own the mills.

Moreover, no matter using manpower or animal power, they need to rest after a period of work. At the same time, their strength is limited and they cannot push too large a stone mill.

The appearance of the windmill undoubtedly brought great convenience.

Moreover, Li Yu promised to charge only one-fifth of the fees originally charged by the nobles after it was put into use, which would be used for daily maintenance and the most basic construction expenses. It is expected to take forty years to recover the investment. In fact, it is semi-public welfare. infrastructure too.

Li Yu even planned to make it free at the beginning, but he was worried that there would be a tragedy of the commons. Everyone would use the windmill without restraint, leaving those who really needed it unable to use it.

And if it’s free, just one is fine. With the expansion and development of Shuangxiu Education, there will definitely be more and more windmills. If all of them are free of charge, Shuangxiu Education will also bear a heavy financial burden.

In addition to the windmill, the new auditorium is almost completed at this time.

The auditorium is still made of brick and wood, but it occupies a much larger area than ordinary residential buildings, and can accommodate 600 people to watch movies at the same time.

Li Yu still found the architectural drawings from the online designer who helped him design the Northeast Kang.

The latter's online name is "Please settle the final payment."

Of course, Li Yu couldn't tell the balance directly that he wanted to build a place specifically for missionary use. He just said that the village wanted to build a small cinema that could seat more people. In addition, water, electricity and fire protection were not required as before.

Although this request is a bit strange, but it is rare to meet a customer who pays so happily and does not need to change the picture, of course there is no reason to refuse the final payment.

He even suspended the other work at hand, and helped Li Yu draw his village cinema first.

This is the second time the two parties have cooperated. The final payment has almost figured out Li Yu's preferences and needs, so this time Li Yu didn't even put forward any suggestions for modification, but just asked him a few questions.

I readily paid the final payment, and even ordered a bathroom design after that.

Please settle the balance, please. When I got excited, I chatted with Li Yu again. He first asked Li Yu how he lived in the Northeast Kang.

Li Yu fully affirmed his design level, and said that everyone who lived in said the house was warmer and much cleaner than the previous house.

I don't quite understand that it's just autumn, and the temperature is quite high. Why are the people living in it thinking about warmth? Could it be that it's too cold in the mountains? However, he is very happy to get compliments from customers.

He felt a little sad when he heard the second half of Li Yu's words, so he typed and asked Li Yu.

"Brother, are you engaged in poverty alleviation? You are building a house, a village cinema, and a bathhouse. Even water and electricity are not available. The conditions are still too difficult. Our country's poverty alleviation campaign still has a long way to go. Let's see. , Brother, I will give you a 50% discount, which is also my heart, to support the construction of impoverished mountainous areas."

The sudden love in the last paragraph made Li Yu on the other side of the network line unable to deal with it.

After a while, I typed again, "It's okay, I can reimburse you."
