The canyon had always been under Zhao Hai’s watch. He had determined that it was the most stable base other than the space.
The terrain of the canyon was very hidden, and the mountains on all sides blocked the cold wind. Water was not difficult, and there were two roads connecting the outside world, water and land. It could be said to be very convenient and more suitable for people to live.
Zhao Hai believed that he would have more and more subordinates in the future. Given the size of the blackearth wilderness, as long as he had the strength, he could definitely build a small dukedom here. With more people, of course, not all of them could live in the iron Mountain castle. Those people would have to be divided to build villages.
However, before he had the strength to build a country, Zhao Hai could only build a small village in the canyon as a test. He wanted to see if there were any problems that needed to be improved to make it easier for him to build a bigger village in the future.
However, the land in the canyon had not been fully improved yet, so it was not the time to build a village. Zhao Hai only had this idea in mind.
Three days passed by quickly. Zhao Hai and the others were almost done with their preparations. Now, they were just waiting for Laura and the others to deliver the oil press, and then they could send green to Casar city.
On the afternoon of the third day, the mackedel family’s caravan arrived at the foot of the Rocky Mountain. This time, Laura didn’t show up, and it was still green who did it. They didn’t let the mackedel family go up the Rocky Mountain, but instead tied up the five carriages that were originally bought by Grimm, and sent the radishes down the mountain. After that, they pulled up the oil press that Laura had bought for them.
In addition to the five oil mills, the magicians also gave Grimm 200 gold coins and a set of books. This set of books was a collection of animals and plants on the continent written by an Alchemist on the continent. This set of books was a gift from Laura to Zhao Hai.
Last time, Zhao Hai told Laura that he had done some research on plants and was planning to open a farm. Laura wanted to form an alliance with Zhao Hai, so she would not let go of such an opportunity. Thus, she bought the books and gave them to Zhao Hai.
This set of books was rare on the continent. In order to write this book, The Alchemist spent 20 hours collecting information on the continent’s plants and animals. He also visited many alchemists and alchemists. In the end, he went to many places to study the plants and animals before finally writing this set of books.
As this set of books wasn’t a magic book, there weren’t many copies. Normally, only alchemists or alchemists would have one set.
In addition to giving the magicians 10000 Jin of radishes, Zhao Hai also gave them 110 hingyu. These were all promised to Laura by Zhao Hai. The extra 10 hingyu were Zhao Hai’s gift to Laura.
The oil press that Laura sent to Zhao Hai was not very big. It only took five carriages to load the top five oil press. When they returned, they could load the radishes.
It didn’t take much effort for green to bring the five machines up the mountain. He didn’t unload the cars, but had Zhao Hai keep the carriages in his space.
The appearance of the oil press was beyond Zhao Hai’s expectations. There was an instruction manual to guide you on how to arrange the oil press. Zhao Hai was confused. He could not understand what was going on on on the ark continent.
There was no science here, as their alchemy and alchemy skills had something to do with science. There was no machine civilization here, but an oil press like this, with a sophisticated design, could not be considered as a place without science. There was also magic and battle energy that could not be found on earth. Zhao Hai was at a loss for words.
After receiving the oil press and 200 gold coins, Zhao Hai and the other guys went to the iron Mountain castle and installed the oil press in the warehouses that had been tidied.
The design of the oil press was pretty good. It was more than three meters high, and at the top was a large loading barrel. At the bottom was something like a millstone with a long pole outside. The top could be pulled by a magic beast, and at the bottom was an oil outlet. This oil outlet could be pulled out by a tube, from which oil could be directly released. The other exit was the oil residue outlet.
It looked very simple, but the entire machine covered more than 20 square meters. It was not small, but the oil press could be disassembled into several parts. Otherwise, a carriage would not be able to fit it.
Zhao Hai took a look at it. The feeding port was too high from the ground. If he wanted to add ingredients, there were only two ways. One was to put some boards beside the feeding port to form a slope so that he could directly push the cart to the feeding port to add ingredients. The other way was to use a conveyor belt.
The conveyor belt was a relatively easy method. You could directly put the tarps on the conveyor belt below and then send them to the refill port.
The oil press didn’t have a conveyor belt, probably because no one on the continent used it. Zhao Hai had seen it used in some grain warehouses on earth, so he thought of it.
The method of setting up boards was commonly used on this continent. Some people directly dug a huge pit on the ground and put the oil press into the pit. In this way, they could feed the oil on the ground. However, after discharging the oil, they had to transport the oil barrels from the pit. Zhao Hai didn’t want to use this method as it was not easy to dig a pit in the castle. The ground of the castle was made of stones. If he did that, he would probably have to tear down the house.
Zhao Hai still wanted to make a conveyor belt. It wasn’t hard to make a conveyor belt, and the power it needed could be directly obtained from the oil press. However, it would require some modifications.
Fortunately, the entire body of the oil press was made of metal. If he wanted to modify it, he only needed to add some metal parts to it.
However, there was a problem. Among Zhao Hai’s group, there was not a single blacksmith. If he really wanted to make a conveyor belt, he would have to find a blacksmith, and the blacksmith could not be too weak.
Zhao Hai only found out after asking green and the others. Although there were many machines on the continent that could be powered by magic crystals, a simple machine like this that could only extract Fruit Oil was not worthy of using magic crystals as power. He was afraid that the money he earned from selling the oil would not be enough to buy magic crystals. Therefore, these machines were generally designed for water, wind, or animal power.
Since there was no way to make a conveyor belt, they could only build boards. Fortunately, they did not lack boards now, but they did not have a cart to transport oilfruits, nor wooden barrels. They had to ask Grimm to go to kassa city to buy them.
Green was aware of the situation and immediately set off for kassa city. Zhao Hai was in the iron Mountain castle, setting up boards for the oil press and preparing a place to wash the fruits. Fortunately, the water supply in the city was very convenient. Zhao Hai had Ann build a huge stone pool outside the oil press to wash the fruits. Then, he would carry the fruits into the house and send them to the oil press through the boards.
The water in the pond was constantly flowing, so there was no need to change the water. If the fine hair on the oilfruit flowed into the moat, it could also become fish food.
However, Zhao Hai did some calculations. One oil press required at least one person to feed and one person to look at the oil and residue. If the person who washed the oil was included, it would require at least four people. Five oil press required at least 20 people to complete.
Zhao Hai wasn’t worried about the manpower. He didn’t want to use the slaves to work in this kind of oil press, as it required 24 hours. If he used all the slaves, it would take at least three shifts. In other words, if he used the slaves, he would need at least 60 people to ensure the normal operation of the oil press. Zhao Hai only had over 100 people at the moment, so it was obviously impossible to transfer 60 people to this oil press. Therefore, Zhao Hai decided to use the undead creatures to build the oil press.
The 20 humanoid undead creatures would be responsible for adding the ingredients and extracting the oil. However, Zhao Hai wanted to use the horned-scale horses to pull the animal power.
It wasn’t that Zhao Hai didn’t want to use other undead creatures to replace the wildebeest, but he didn’t have a suitable one. The undead creatures he collected last time were all from the carrion swamp. They were huge and weren’t suitable for pulling things. The force needed to push the oil press didn’t need to be too strong, but it had to be stable. A huge creature like alien wouldn’t be able to pull the press. Their speed wasn’t stable, and Zhao Hai had no choice but to use the scaly horned horse to pull the oil press.
Zhao Hai didn’t have many mature scaled-horned horses, but they were enough. Zhao Hai had already decided that if things didn’t work out, he would kill a few scaled-horned horses and turn them into undead creatures. That way, the problem would be solved.
Everything was ready for Zhao Hai’s side. They just had to wait for green to buy all the things they needed before they could start work.
The operation of the oil press was not a small matter. As long as the oil press was open, they would have another stable source of income. At the same time, they would have the high-quality feed, oil residue, and they could start their rabbit farm. This way, they would have another stable source of income. This was really important to the Buda family.
