Chapter 783 But I can only play with mud(1/2)
One month later.
Tina observes the latest construction conditions at the construction site.
The area where the houses are located is officially named "Duggs Manor".
The originally desolate and rugged stone mountain was carved out with a winding vein shaped like a branch, the stone road was shaped into the shape of bark, and a small half of the mountain was transformed into the exposed roots of some kind of giant tree.
The workers were still banging away.
The house part was easier.
Ideas are the most difficult.
Related technologies, whether it is building stone houses, paving roads, or beautifying the environment, these experienced workers can complete it at the architect's request.
After the model house was released to the public, and with the vigorous publicity and promotion of the business houses, the Dage-style house became a hot spot in Yancheng. Every day, many people come to visit and inquire about the place, full of curiosity and appreciation for it.
“Do the Dagos live in houses like this?”
"Yes sir, that's why it's called Dagos style. We have retained the Dagos style and added the comfort, convenience and advanced aspects of Yancheng. You don't have to worry about daily life at all."
"How much does a house like this cost?"
"There are several specifications here based on your needs... Our pricing is not cheap, and we strive to create a high-quality living environment with sign boards and a unique and elegant design. In this world, beauty is a luxury, isn't it?
"
"But it's not very convenient here. I don't have a car when I go out."
"Miss, please don't worry. Soon, a special line for steam, steam and horse carriages will be opened below, leading from Yancheng to the famous ancient salt pond in the west. It will also become a scenic spot open to the public, so the value here will only increase further.
.”
…
The agents of the Chamber of Commerce were all eloquent and talked about the Dagos-style courtyard.
Tina is used to this.
What people pay for, apart from the function of the item itself, is also the additional value and subjective emotion given to the item... To put it in more familiar terms, I pay for it, and I am happy.
As an architect, it is a pleasure to see the buildings you design being loved and purchased by people.
But she has more important things to do now.
After confirming that there was no problem at the construction site, Tina drove quickly back to the college office.
In the mailbox at the door, she unexpectedly saw the long-awaited letter.
Signed "Mrs Matthews".
This is my mother's handwriting and name, and my father Pava's other identity is storyteller Matthews.
Tina took it apart and took a look.
It says inside.
"I know, take it and wish you good luck."
Concise and concise motherly style, there is also a large city bond in it, with a face value of 3 million.
Very good!!
Fortunately, I resisted by selling the pot and selling iron.
Tina flicked the paper in her hand and said to the busy girl assistant inside: "Don't worry about the materials for the second issue. The sponsorship is here."
Vilia said oh, she was concentrating on squeezing the clay figurine at the moment.
The mud she uses now is not the common white or reddish-brown clay, but a lead-gray soft clay with a smooth surface and stronger stickiness.
This is an extremely expensive upper replacement.
Forbidden land.
It comes from the remote Xirang Mine, and its output is not large. Currently, it is only available to qualified scholars or research units, and the price remains high.
The shaping function of forbidden soil is much stronger than that of clay, because it has stronger viscosity and elasticity and is not easy to collapse and naturally deform.
It is an impurity peeled off from the soil. It is itself the powder of forbidden stone. It does not need to be fired with the fire of faith. It only needs to be heated at low temperature or wait for it to dry naturally, and it will solidify into forbidden stone again.
The Forbidden Stone has the ability to isolate various elements.
At present, Yao scholars have tested and found that adding a small amount of fine sand and iron sand can solidify the forbidden soil into a new material with both strength and stability. It will be able to transmit power through the iron sand, and can be adjusted by adjusting the iron sand.
content to determine conduction velocity.
It's just expensive.
Tina almost emptied her savings to buy enough forbidden soil for Vilia to use in the first phase.
Facts have also proved that there are reasons for being expensive.
Runes engraved using forbidden soil as a carrier are very stable and will hardly deform. They are extremely durable and are not as easily broken or uneven as pottery made from clay.
Vilia used forbidden soil as raw material and pieced together a finished prop using new clay pieces.
Tina looked at the shelf against the wall. There was a tall and large hammer. Its surface was made of square gray forbidden stone. Both the long handle and the hammer head were square.
This is the wand made by Vilia.
During the actual production, bending of the clay sheets would cause the runes to fail, and the bending technology had not yet been mastered. So Vilia made a long column out of square pieces of clay, and then built it on its foundation.
And the head of the wand was made...
In short, due to technical difficulties, the wand ended up looking like a gray hammer.
But it can really fly.
The first time she tried it in the suburbs, Tina sat behind Vilia and couldn't help but be surprised when she watched the girl slowly move the handle and control the wand to fly.
She originally thought that it was amazing to be able to levitate.
Flying is a very complex sport that requires both hanging and floating, moving forward and turning, and controlling speed and balance.
Even in the fields of magic and engineering technology, flying is a difficult subject.
It took hundreds of years for the flying boat project to achieve initial success, which illustrates its complexity.
But Vilia's control is very simple. She is like a magician riding a goose. She can fly easily by twisting the handle of the hammer.
"Teacher, every piece of clay on this wand is useful. As long as there are enough, you can do a lot of things."
The girl rode a hammer-shaped wand and flew happily at low altitude.
"On the tip of the wand, which is also the heaviest part, I reinforced a lot of clay pieces. They provide the force to push us forward, as if someone is pushing us from behind."
"The long handle of the wand has even clay pieces, so it won't lose balance. The tail of the wand, which is where I hold it, is similar to the reins of a horse. You can do it by turning it gently because of the power here.
It’s not sealed…”
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! What she said made Tina secretly frightened.
A small piece of clay has become a magic part with infinite functions in the hands of Vilia. Just a magic ability can produce incredible qualitative changes through different combinations and arrangements.
Tina thought to herself that she was indeed a genius.
"I envy the teacher very much."
Vilia's short hair was blowing in the wind: "You can do everything, you can draw design drawings, you can speak at least four languages, you can build houses, you can mix clay, you can burn bricks, you can use [Spell Box Court], you can
Use elemental crystal structures to build various models, understand various spices, cosmetics and clothes, and master such difficult mathematics at the same time. Are you an architect, understand business, or come from an enviable famous family... you can do everything
, I just need to ask you and you will teach me.”
"But I can only play in mud."
Tina couldn't help but be stunned. In the eyes of the other party, was she such an omnipotent person?
Maybe everyone tends to ignore the things they have mastered.
Maybe there is no genius in this world.
Or maybe, everyone in this world is a genius.
It's just that sometimes, people are like clay, living deep under the dead leaves and in ditches and rivers on the mountains. They may never be able to enter the correct workbench to perform their functions throughout their lives.
she thought.
What is the difference between the Dage people and the Yao people?
Is it the difference between Odin and Yao?
Are they the different results of inferiority complex and self-confidence?
Or is it the inevitable result of poverty and embarrassment and wealth?
Maybe both.
Tina touched Vilia's head: "Don't doubt yourself, you are a genius."
The girl said sadly: "I just hope my mother can recover."
"Don't worry."
