The World Best Engineer novel - chapter 34
chapter 34
“Fire in the Hall!”
Whoops, flash! It was a bright sunny morning. Lloyd’s shout cut through the sunlight. At the same time, Habiel’s long sword flashed. A white flash of light penetrated the granite. swept deep exploded in Damn it! Even granite, which had stood in one place for tens of thousands of years, could not withstand the explosion caused by sophisticated calculations inside. Cracked and cracked in one direction. The rift expanded in an instant. collapsed under its own weight. Curry! Like a giant’s dice, a cube of granite fell out. It was a large mass that would be enough to weigh several tons.
“Good job, Habiel!”
Lloyd gave a thumbs up. Habiel wiped the sweat from her forehead with her handkerchief. That was the role of Habiel. Next, it was the turn of the phantom.
“Come on, Podong?”
“Pop?”
“Would you like to eat this? Red sunflower seeds.”
“Podo-dong?”
“I ordered this specially to feed you. There is only one red one and one blue one in a set, so I have to pay a whopping 1 RP to buy it?”
“Podoong?”
“I bought 50 of them yesterday. I poured 50 RP. But what do you do? Isn’t this all the tearful and tiring efforts of this body to feed you and the bell?”
“Podo-dong?”
“So, would you like something to eat?”
“Podong!”
The little one on the palm of his hand received the red sunflower seeds. She put it in her mouth at once and started to poop. Meanwhile, Lloyd stepped back. She and she watched her transformation of plump. Tuaang-! A 10-meter hamster descended (?).
“Podoong!”
“okay. Well done, Podong. Come on, gossip.”
“Podong!”
“Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Then can you move it?”
Lloyd’s hand pointed to a cube of granite.
“You can move it to Orc Village. how is it? can you do it?”
“Podong!”
Podongy nodded his big head vigorously. The guy went straight up to the granite mass, twitching his plump buttocks. He stretched out his wretched hand. He opened his mouth even more disgusting. And he shoved a chunk of granite into his mouth.
“Pop! Pedro!”
One cheek pocket of Podongi became full in the shape of a cube.
“Good job, Podong-ah. So what about that?”
“Puddung!”
The rest of Podongyi’s cheeks also became cube-shaped. Lloyd rode on the back of Pudongyi.
“Then let’s go!”
“Pop!”
Even with tons of granite on both cheeks, there was no hesitation in her gait. Like a dump truck, he ran towards the Orc Village. After moving the granite to the oak village, the following process continued. The protagonists of the next process were Lloyd himself, the young orc warrior Arosh, and 20 men of the Engineers.
“The stone has arrived, Kuk!”
“Everyone ready!”
Cheeky! They were waiting at the planned construction site for Seokbingo. As if waiting, as soon as the granite arrived, he picked up a chisel, a hammer, and a pickaxe. And then, he ran fiercely towards the granite he had spit out.
“Crush it, Kyuik!”
“Let’s not lose either!”
“Wow!”
Arosh the Orc and the 20 men of the Engineers sweated all day long. Following the marks Lloyd drew on the granite, the rock was split into chunks and squared. It was to make large granite bricks for use in Seokbingo. Of course, in the meantime, Podong did not rest.
“Podong?”
“Pop?”
“Can you dig here? From here to here. this much. 7 meters deep.”
“Podo-dong?”
supportive! Lloyd drew a crack in the ground with a branch. It was an action that looked like it was drawing randomly. But in fact, the lines he drew were exactly the same as Seokbingo’s design. It was thanks to the option of the design skill, ‘flat plan display (2D)’.
‘Oh, it’s comfortable. A floor plan that is displayed on the ground in real time only to me.’
All you need to do is to load the pre-designed design model of Seokbingo. What if we apply it to real terrain? A floor plan, visible only to him, was engraved on the ground. Thanks to this, the lines he draws reflect the actual Seokbingo design. I was able to accurately convey the scope, depth, and shape of the digging to Podongi.
“Come on, please.”
“Podong!”
Podong raised his arms. Along the line drawn on the floor, he began to dig with a fierce force. Hobarbababat! There was no exception even if it was a dry and hard wasteland. With each gesture, the ground was dug. A huge amount of dust was also blown out. But Lloyd did not back down. The more he did, the more he stayed next to Podongi who was digging the ground. He gladly drank the dust with Podongi, who worked for him. Every time Podongi dug the ground, he carefully inspected it. Whether there is an error with the actual design. I wonder if it was too short or too much digging. While simultaneously activating surveying and design skills, he thoroughly inspected every nook and cranny. And he picked up the shovel himself whenever he found a place where there was a slight error. Be careful where you sell short. Where it is dug out excessively, make it firm. dug out and filled All errors of even one centimeter were corrected directly.
‘Digging the ground. This is one of the most important processes in all construction, not just Seokbingo construction.’
It was literally creating the foundation of the structure. Neglecting this process will inevitably cause problems later. So what if there is a problem with the building?
‘Credit is down. Bad rumors spread. Then you won’t be able to keep the business going for long.’
Trust with customers is the most important thing. It didn’t matter if the opponent was a human or an orc. Orc Chief Akush was also a clear customer. Anyone who has an order contract with them is a customer. It was Lloyd’s mindset to think of them all as customers, even if they weren’t humans, even orcs or monsters.
‘Artisan spirit? no. I give you money! All those who give money are customers, kings, and gods!’
So we had to create the best results. I had to give my best. Considering the current cost of construction and the money that will come one after another in the future, it should have been the case. So Lloyd willingly shed a sweat. A few days passed quickly. It was a breath-taking day as if it had been nailed to a plate. Habiel blasted the granite and broke off her chunks. Pudong moved the granite mass to the site. Orc Arosh and his men polished the granite. Lloyd worked hard to refine and inspect the site. So, after ten days, the foundation work was finally finished.
“No time to rest! Let’s keep going!”
“Yeah!”
Lloyd took off his jacket and stepped out. He carried granite bricks with the men of engineering. Bricks were laid one after another on the pre-minced ground. The experience of assisting with tile work in the field in Korea was of great help.
‘It’s incredibly large and heavier than the tile that was laid back then!’
It was the same as having the floor finish with a hard material. Make the floor firm. Pre-set horizontal or slope. To cover the hard stone according to the plan. The finish was similar to filling the gaps between the stones with a joint. The only difference here is that the waterproofing is done with lime-mixed mud instead of tile grout. In any case, the overall construction went smoothly until then. But when I finished the floor and started to put the stones on the wall, a problem arose.
“Keeping ↗”
There was a groaning sound from the waist of a certain engineer, along with a groan that was strange and somehow more spectacular.
“Hey, are you okay?”
“Ugh… … I feel like my back is out.”
“… … .”
The soldier who had his back protruded while putting a stone on the wall had to lie down for several days moaning. The large granite blocks were too heavy to lift. Other soldiers of the Engineers were in a similar situation. As the work progressed day by day, the number of people in the goalpost increased. Someone injured the wrist ligament. Someone else’s shoulder went out. This was even though the soldiers were accustomed to working hard through the construction of ondol rooms, paved roads, and coal mines. In the end, Lloyd was the only one left to lift the stone at any cost. Since Habiel used his blasting in succession, he had to rest for a few more days. A deep wrinkle formed between Lloyd’s forehead.
‘This is a little tricky. If I had Orc Arosh, I’d use it a bit. Oh, that guy. I mean, what is it like to go out on a hunting expedition at a time like this?’
Unfortunately, Arosh was not in the village. When the construction of the ground was completed, it was because he went on a group hunt, the duty of a warrior, with the members of the tribe.
‘However, I can’t make Podongi gigantic here.’
The floor had just been finished. The stone laid on the floor has not yet settled. If tens of tons of porridge move here and there and step on it, there is a possibility that the hard-laid floor stones will be slightly misaligned.
‘Then what should I do?’
Lloyd pondered a solution. The problem was that the stones were too big and heavy. However, that did not reduce the size of the stone.
‘At least this thickness should be enough for insulation.’
The purpose of building Seokbingo now was to protect against the cold. In order to block the heat from the outside, it was necessary to use a whole thick stone.
‘Is there no choice but to wait for the bottom stone to settle down and then use the puffy one?’
For the safety of the soldiers, I thought that it would be better. But it was the afternoon of the day Lloyd was so troubled. An unexpected solution came out in an unexpected way.
“Cooky? You can’t say that like that, Kuk!”
From the beginning of the construction of Seokbingo, there were orcs who had gathered and watched. They used to grunt and watch Pudong and Lloyd digging and compacting the ground and laying stones on the floor. It was the same today. Lloyd was putting up the wall stone alone. Of course, it was incredibly heavy. However, it was not impossible with the help of a shrewd mind. At this point, I was thinking about doing some strength training. However, the orcs who were watching began to meddle in one by one.
“human! It doesn’t cost that much, is it?”
“Yes?”
Lloyd, whose face was open from raising the stone, lifted his head. Outside the construction site, from above, an elderly orc was talking to this side.
“What did you just say?”
“Literally. If you do that, the isolation movement will not work, Kuik.”
“Yes?”
“You have to keep your back straight and your butt back. She stretches her chest too. You need to utilize the flexibility of the ankle to properly stimulate the muscles in the desired area, Kwiik!”
“Hey, I’m not exercising, am I?”
“It doesn’t matter, Kook!”
“… … .”
It was from then. The other orcs who were watching together also began to add words one by one.
“Catch it further down, Kook!”
“Breathing is also important, Kyuik!”
“Faster when uploading, kuik!”
“One more, Kook!”
“… … .”
It was as if I was being kindly surrounded by the gymnasts at the gym I went to for the first time in my life, who were stagnant with petroleum extracts. In the end, the situation came to a point where the uncles (?) came out directly to the sluggish appearance of this place.
“Ahh, that person is frustrating, kuik!”
“Why can’t you do what I tell you, Kyuik!”
“We’re going to show you a demonstration, Kuiik!”
“Look carefully and learn, Kuk!”
Dozens of chubby orc uncles came down to the scene. Before Lloyd could try to dry it, he grabbed the large granite bricks one by one. Anaconda-like tendons rose from their backs.
“Heo itcha, kuik!”
“Yeopcha, Kyuik!”
It was the stone that Lloyd was holding while grunting while operating his shrill mind. It was a stone that could only be lifted by three soldiers of the engineering corps. But what about these orc lads? A rice cake gorilla who broke into the Olympic weightlifting stadium lifted it so lightly that it overturned the table!
“OMG.”
It was an eye-opening sight. But Lloyd wasn’t caught up in surprise. He quickly caught on to the essence of this absurd situation. he said quickly.
“Aww, that’s amazing!”
“Kook! That’s about it, Kyuik!”
“no. You are really great. I couldn’t even dream of putting that stone ‘over there’.”
“Until there, Kukik?”
Lloyd pointed to the half-stacked wall. The muscular orc warrior glanced back at him. and laughed bitterly.
“People are the problem. Take a good look, Kyuik.”
He lifted the stone he was holding onto his head in an instant. Then, as if dealing with a half-empty ramen box, Lloyd pointed it out and placed it gently. woohoo-! A large granite brick took its place with a heavy sound resonating deep in the heart. It was placed exactly where it was needed for construction.
‘done. This is it.’
Lloyd secretly clenched his fist. Then he hugged the granite brick next to him. She groaned deliberately.
“Uhhhhhhhhhh! Am I not doing well?”
“Twitch! Look out, human. This is what a proper demonstration looks like, Kyuik!”
Flashing, woooong-! Another huge stone was placed where it was needed. After that, a similar process continued. Lloyd was sweating profusely and stroking her. He touched the hearts of Orc warriors with his awkward facial expression that rivaled the Academy Award for Best Actor. Each time, the orc warriors trembled with their biceps in the rising sadness. He tried his best to teach the weak and poor human the proper exercise posture. There was a warm feeling in the fiery muscles and tendons. Thanks to this, I was able to raise all the walls of Seokbingo in less than a day! The work did not end there.
“Oh my, it’s harder to lift like this! Ouch, turn it off!”
The next day, Lloyd was deliberately grunting and groaning. It was like a novice who went to the gym for the first time to cast a trainer summoning skill. Then, more orc warriors than the day before came, snorting his nose. I burned my will to teach the true exercise method to that unfortunate beginner. It was thanks to their voluntary (?) help. Seokbingo’s vaulted ceiling structure, Hongye, was also outlined in less than two days!
‘Even this, it’s not even a blow job.’
Each Orc was like a crane. It was so strong that it was able to place it in the correct position while handling a huge and heavy stone. Literally live the muscles. The speed-of-light space-time that Lloyd had only dreamed of was becoming a reality.
