Warlords: Rise From the Land of Doom
Chapter 283: Because I am not a stone house! (2 in 1)
Whoa!
"This Narant is too clueless!"
"This has failed Andrew's words just now!"
In an instant, all the nobles in this restaurant had different expressions.
The older nobles all looked at Andrew with some sympathy.
Originally, this time he was likely to become the future hope of the Berwick family, but Narant actually fell off the chain at this time.
And those young heirs laughed secretly one by one, and now Narant has no chance to turn over.
Only the Count, Miss Stella and a few nobles did not laugh at Narant, but their expressions were a little solemn.
They felt that Narant should not be so unwise, but the facts were right in front of them.
Only Boris looked at Narant with some suspicion.
Among the crowd, he is probably the only one who knows the current Narant the most. In his eyes, he is absolutely resourceful. Therefore, he feels that Narant must have a purpose for saying this.
"Little Narant, don't talk nonsense!" Andrew looked at everyone's reaction and his expression changed slightly, and he gave Narant a rare stern reprimand.
"Father, I'm really not talking nonsense. I asked the craftsmen to design this small building like this!" Narant is still full of confidence, "Furthermore, father, Lord Earl and all the guests, you know that these seven manors of mine started from the beginning. How long did it take from construction to completion?"
Narant didn't care about his cheap dad's anxious expression, and continued to talk about the next paragraph while a group of nobles watched.
Naturally, no one answered the question posed by Narant.
Narant didn't care, he smiled and stretched out **** and said, "In less than two months, it took less than two months from the start of construction to the completion of my seven manors! "
Whoa!
Narant's words are truly earth-shattering.
It usually takes two months to build an empty shell of a small stone house, but Narant built seven buildings in two months.
Unless he used seven times as many craftsmen and coolies as others.
But the next moment, Narant continued: "And during these two months, I used the manpower to build seven manors, including craftsmen and coolies, no more than 100 people."
"How is this possible? Even if we cut corners, we can't build it so quickly. No matter how small the stone is, it needs to be trimmed!"
"Lord Count, let's get out of this small building! This small building is too dangerous. Sir Narant seems to be talking nonsense, and he said it sincerely! It was built in two months. There are seven small manor buildings like this, and I am afraid this small building will collapse at any time!"
Narant didn't have time to answer the nobleman's question, but several young people became more and more uneasy.
If this small building really collapsed, the Count and several noble nobles might be able to survive with their super strength, but if these young people were pressed down by the house, they would definitely become meat pie.
"Narant, do you know that if you do this, this stone house will become very dangerous?"
The Count naturally wouldn't think that Narant was suddenly crazy, so he didn't listen to the young man's words, but asked Narant with a blank face.
"Lord Count, I don't know!" Narant shook his head.
However, seeing Bernard's brows slightly wrinkled, Narant knew that he couldn't play anymore, and he would really set himself on fire if he kept playing.
So he turned around and said, "However, Lord Count, I can guarantee the absolute safety of my small building, because my small building is not a stone house!"
"It's not a stone house? What does that mean?"
Everyone was stunned, unable to understand what Narant also said.
"Lord Count, and all the guests, as you heard, this small building of my manor is not made of heavy stones! That's why you can see that the walls of this small building are so thin."
"But I, Narant, can use my reputation to guarantee the firmness of the small building! This is a restaurant for nobles. I am a noble myself, so how could I not know that nobles' lives are extremely precious existences? !" Narant explained in one breath.
"Narant, you said that your small building was not made of stone, so what was it made of?"
Some of the guests who were leaning against the wall were already looking at the wall, but unfortunately because of the lime powder on it, they naturally couldn't see anything.
In everyone's perception, there are only two materials for building houses, wooden houses and stone houses. Although the small building of Narant is painted with lime, it cannot be made of wood!
"Well, since everyone has asked, I won't hide it! In fact, this small building is made of clay!"
""
There was silence in the field for a moment, and everyone wondered if Narant was crazy.
That's what Narant wants.
"Big rock, go get some bricks!"
"Yes, my lord!"
Soon, the big stone came to Narant with a few bricks.
Narant picked up a brick and then showed it to everyone, "Everyone, this is the brick for building the small building, and it's made of soil!"
Having said that, Narant waved at the big stone again, and asked him to send the extra bricks to the hands of the nobles.
When the big rock began to distribute the bricks, Narant handed his own brick to Bernard.
"Lord Count, this is a new specialty of my Storm Territory, a material that can replace stone to build houses. Using it will not only save costs, but also greatly shorten the construction time!"
Hearing this, Bernard took the brick from Narant's hand thoughtfully, and immediately put it in his hand and checked it. .
"It's really hard, but, Narant, are you sure this material is reliable?"
Bernard tossed and pinched again, and found that the hardness of the bricks was indeed good.
However, compared with rocks, there are still some gaps.
Not only Bernard felt this way, but also the nobles below.
And Narant has long known that only seeing is believing, so that everyone can understand the firmness of the brick building!
So, Narant immediately said to everyone: "Sir Count, and all the guests, since I have informed you of the existence of this brick today, I will show you the real face of the house built with it! "
With that said, Narant invited Bernard and a group of nobles to walk outside the restaurant.
At this moment, Narant is also slightly nervous, because whether his third shock can be completed, the answer will be revealed soon.
Naturally, everyone wanted to see what the brick house Narant said looked like, so they followed.
Walking out of the small building and passing through the front door, Narant led the crowd towards the back of the manor from the side.
Afterwards, several dense trees with their roots cut off appeared in front of them, and the nobles did not know why they saw this scene.
Narant took a deep breath and waved directly at Mario who was standing not far away.
Seeing this, Mario immediately turned around and said loudly to the two nearby savages: "Pull!"
"drink!"
Following Mario's order, the barbarians on both sides instantly pulled the hemp rope in their hands.
As they exerted their strength, the big trees in front of Narant and the others were pulled directly to the side.
boom! boom!
With a few muffled sounds, the dense tree finally fell down, and the scene behind also fell into the eyes of a group of nobles!
"God, what did I see?"
"How can there be such a house?"
At this moment, the empty shell of a small brick building that has been completed for the most part appeared in the eyes of everyone.
Without the cover of lime powder, the original appearance of the wall was immediately exposed to everyone.
Until this moment, no one really believed what Narant said about building a house with this brick.
And this unprecedented scene also instantly had an impact on the cognition of the nobles.
"Ding, the third shock of the side quest has been completed, and the reward for the third green elf has been distributed!"
When the nobles were stunned, Narant finally heard the long-awaited sound in his mind.
"Haha! It's done!" Narant cheered in his heart.
In the restaurant, he deliberately made a group of nobles misunderstand him for so long, and finally his hard work paid off!
However, although this third shock has been completed, what Narant needs to do is not finished.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, he naturally wants to start selling his bricks, which is also a considerable fortune.
"Lord Count, and all the guests, this is an unfinished building. After the construction is completed, it will be exactly the same as the restaurant building!" Narant spoke directly to the stunned guests, "And everyone Obviously, I am worried about the quality of this small building, and I have no evidence, so I will show it to everyone!"
With that said, Narant looked at the young man who stood up and told Bernard to escape.
"Your Excellency, don't know what to call him?"
"Gnimir, what do you want Narant?" The young man looked vigilant.
"It's not very good, it's just that I want to ask Lord Gurney for a favor!" Narant smiled.
"What are you busy with?" Gurney didn't know what Narant wanted to do, but he was not afraid of Narant because he thought that his father was here and that all the nobles were there.
"It's very simple. I have a hammer here. Can Lord Gurney demolish that section of the brick wall for me within ten minutes!" Built brick wall.
The area of this brick wall is not large, it is only half a person high and four meters long.
"Of course, during the process of knocking on the wall, Lord Gurney cannot use his grudge, otherwise even the stone house will not be able to stop the destruction of the title knight!" Narant added: "If Lord Gurney can complete this task within ten minutes , I am willing to pay twenty gold coins as Lord Gurney's reward!"
"Wow! Twenty gold coins!" Narant's voice just fell, and the nobles in the field were surprised.
Twenty gold coins, this is a considerable wealth, even the nobles cannot turn a blind eye.
"Sir Narrant, does your sentence count?" Gurney was instantly excited.
Not just a wall, not a stone wall yet.
Even if he can't use Dou Qi, with his extraordinary physique, it's definitely not difficult.
"Your Excellency Gurney, of course my words count, and the Earl and all the guests can testify!"
"Okay, then I'll help you with this!" Gurney didn't delay any longer after hearing this, and couldn't wait to go forward and pick up the hammer.
"Sir Narrant, then I'll start!"
"Okay!" Narant had already prepared a crystal hourglass.
This hourglass was used by nobles for short-term timekeeping on weekdays. Although it could not be 100% accurate, it was not far behind.
And this hourglass happens to be a ten-minute cycle.
Boom!
As Narant nodded, Gurney unceremoniously raised his hammer and smashed it towards the brick wall.
As the muffled sound came, the debris on the brick wall suddenly flew.
However, Gurney's expression, which was originally indifferent, became slightly dignified.
He didn't pay much attention to this first hammer, and hit it directly in the middle of the wall, wanting to see if it could directly smash the wall down.
But the shock from his hand let him know that it was wishful thinking to directly smash the brick wall.
The wall didn't even move when the hammer hit it just now, only the bricks where the hammer fell were damaged.
Gurney no longer underestimated, he honestly chose the edge of the brick wall and started smashing wildly.
dong dong dong!
As Gurney began to swing the stone hammer vigorously, even more shards of marl splashed in the field.
After all, it is an extraordinary physique, and a single brick cannot withstand a few hammers from Gurney.
While everyone watched Gurney smash the bricks on the edge, they did not despise Narant's brick wall, but had a new understanding of Narant's brick wall.
The Earl looked at the brick wall thoughtfully at the moment, and he had already seen some clues from the notes that Gurney was struggling to beat. .
In this way, when Gurney was knocking **** the wall, everyone was silent and watched Gurney perform.
Gurney was full of energy at first, but as time went on, his expression gradually became solemn. At this moment, he finally knocked down a wall that was more than square meters, but when he turned his eyes to the hourglass beside him. ~www.readwn.com~ I saw that the hourglass had leaked more than half at the moment, and he had only knocked a quarter of the wall.
Moreover, with the loss of his physical strength, it was impossible to knock down a complete section of the wall in ten minutes.
This also means that it is impossible for him to get twenty gold coins.
"Gurney, come back! You can't finish!"
Seeing this situation, Gurney's father knew that it would be shameful to let his son stay there, and he immediately greeted him.
Although Gurney looked gloomy and uncertain, he was not mindless. In the end, he put down his hammer and walked back to the team without saying a word.
"Thank you, Your Excellency Gurney, I'd like to ask if there are any guests who want to try it! As long as you don't use Dou Qi and smash the next section of the wall within ten minutes, my reward will still be valid!"
In the face of Narant's inquiry, there was silence in the field.
Obviously, everyone saw that the strength of the brick wall was not as bad as they imagined.
And the reason why Narant is so sure that everyone can't complete it, naturally has his reasons.
In order to ensure the absolute reliability of the wall, the blue bricks he used to build the small building reached a thickness of three.
You must know that in the past life, even if a building was built in the countryside, only two bricks were used, and the thickness of Narant’s brick was increased by one, and the firmness can be said to be doubled directly.
Also, don't look at a brick as hard as a stone.
But when it is built, the firmness and tightness are not inferior to stone walls.
To say that the brick house is worse than the stone house, that is, the aging time of the brick is faster than that of the stone.
However, bricks are more economical, and the money to build a stone house is enough to build several small brick buildings of the same size.
