witch and First Army set off had four days of time, according to the plan, they should arrive in the Silver Light City suburb tomorrow afternoon. 女巫和第一军出发已有四天时间了,按照计划,他们应该在明天下午抵达银光城郊外。 After having provided the Honey flight messenger, Roland can receive the letter that the team mails every day, has Iron Axe, has Anna, has Nightingale, although cannot compare the mobile phone like that fast , the basic and wireless telegraphy was similar. If the flight messenger on this line are many on several times, frequently has the bird to travel between two places, perhaps can also simulate the effect that the short note chatted. 配备了蜜糖的飞行信使后,罗兰每天都能接到队伍寄来的信件,有铁斧的、有安娜的、还有夜莺的,虽然比不上移动电话那般迅捷,也基本和无线电报相仿了。假若这条线路上的飞行信使再多上几倍,时时刻刻都有鸟儿往返于两地之间,说不定还能模拟出短信聊天的效果。 Nightingale not in the day, Chief Knight received the heavy responsibility of security castle. However what made Roland puzzled was, a Carter for several days cheerful appearance, as if has always come across the especially happy matter. Re-enters the labor of duty, is responsible for itself personal bodyguard such being worth happily? 夜莺不在的日子,首席骑士接过了保卫城堡的重任。不过令罗兰不解的是,卡特这些天总是一副乐呵呵的模样,似乎遇到了格外开心的事情。难道重回本职工作,负责贴身护卫自己就这么值得高兴吗？ He shakes the head, the attention will put the report of Minister of Construction Karl van Bate. 他摇摇头,将注意力放到建设部长卡尔.梵伯特的汇报上来。 Had the assistance of Sleeping Island witch, this month the Border Town's construction project progress is amazingly quick. 有了沉睡岛女巫的协助,这一个多月来边陲镇的建设项目可谓进展神速。 First is traditional stone bridge and wooden plank bridge of steel bridge smooth completion-- on Scarlet Water River compared with, the bridge body of steel can the pre- initiative be good, carries on the integral hoisting again, in addition Lotus in two floating islands that in the river course raises, further simplified its putting up difficulty, shortening the main span time astonishing one month. 首先是赤水河上的钢铁桥梁顺利竣工——比起传统的石桥和木板桥,钢铁的桥身可以预先制好,再进行整体吊装,加上莲在河道中升起的两座浮岛,进一步简化了它的搭设难度,使得主桥工期缩短到了惊人的一个月。 Although by the vision of later generation, it is short and narrow, the structure is crude, the load is extremely low, is purely the jerry-built project of waste material, but was considered as the previous grand magnificent super bridge-- Chief Head more than 100 meters in this time, and bridge floor is straight, may pass through for two horse-drawn vehicles abreast in row, the lower part can also satisfy the inland river sailing ship to pass through, which regardless of being not the unwieldy stone bridge can achieve. 尽管以后世的目光来看,它又矮又窄,结构过于简陋,荷载极低,纯属浪费材料的豆腐渣工程,但在这个时代已算得上一座宏伟壮观的超级大桥——总长100多米,且桥面平直,可供两辆马车并排通行,下部还能满足内河帆船通行,无论哪一点都不是笨重的石桥可以做到的。 Next, the Lotus newly-built city wall has also completed closing up. City wall that this pure soil builds tripled the small town area continues, if will construct the city from now on, the original town will become „in city that” will be worthy of the reputation. However Roland favors a point of two points of view, perhaps in the future one day, this place can also expand to have seven points of giant cities, coronates the name of imperial capital officially. 其次,莲的新建城墙也完成了合拢。这道纯泥土堆砌的城墙将小镇面积生生增加了两倍不止,若是今后建城,原先的镇子将会成为名副其实的“内城区”。不过罗兰更倾向于一环二环的说法,或许将来有一天,此地也能扩建成拥有七环的巨型城市,正式加冕帝都之名。 Finally is the construction of Kingdom Highway, follows the foot that Impassable Mountain Range spreads to be reduced to the flat land by Lotus, enabling the path to pass straightly, greatly reduced the total time. 最后是王国大道的建设,一些顺着绝境山脉蔓延下来的山脚被莲降为平地,使道路可以笔直通过,大大降低了总工期。 „Your highness, what your next construction plan to the Lotus arrangement is?” After Karl reports various progress, asked. “殿下,您对莲安排的下一步建造计划是什么？”卡尔汇报完各项进度后问道。 Can look, he to transforming the ability of terrain fills to envy, the difference face to face had not only proposed that must integrate Ministry of Construction her, and appointed vice-minister's request. 看得出来,他对改造地形的能力充满羡慕,只差没当面提出要将她纳入建设部,并委任副部长的要求了。 „......” Roland was not pondering that this issue, then his also three upgrade projects wait for the implementation. “唔……”罗兰也在思考这个问题,接下来他还有三项重大改造项目以待实施。 First is the estuary project: Seeks for a low opening in the south mountain ridge region, then subsides to pass in and out the shoal the path, this point must depend upon the Lotus ability to achieve. Once completes the transformation, Western Region had has faced directly the harbor of sea. 第一个是出海口工程:在南端山岭地带寻找一处低矮豁口,然后沉降成可以进出浅滩的道路,这一点必须依靠莲的能力才能做到。一旦完成改造,西境就拥有了直面大海的港湾。 Second is the house expands: Although City Hall put in a huge amount of manpower financial resource to speed up constructing the residential district, when the winter approached, possibly about 3000 people are unable to be admitted to the warm brick house. The wooden shed and simple residence that now puts up are unable to satisfy the protection against the cold to need, therefore he needs one batch to have the cave house of thick wall and heated kang solves this problem. 第二是住宅扩建:尽管市政厅投入了大量人力财力加紧建设住宅小区,不过在冬季来临时,仍可能有近3000人无法住进温暖的砖房。现在搭设的木棚和简易住所根本无法满足御寒所需,因此他需要一批拥有厚实墙壁和火炕的窑洞房来解决这个问题。 Last point is puts up dock: To produce shallow water heavy gunship, he must result in the first arrange/cloth next spacious dock, simultaneously was unable to affect passing through of Scarlet Water River. Roland plans to decrease in a stream bank altitude west small town, forms the dry dock, and in approaching Scarlet Water River one side installment fluctuation strobe, the control keeps off the water and turning on the water. The project folk recipe scale is huge, similarly completes by the Lotus ability. 最后一点则是搭设船坞:想要生产浅水重炮舰,他必须得先布下一座宽敞的船坞,同时还不能影响到赤水河的通行。罗兰打算在小镇西头降低一片河堤高度,形成干船坞,并于靠近赤水河的一侧安装升降式闸门,控制挡水和放水。工程土方规模巨大,同样得靠莲的能力来完成。 After having considered the moment, he decided puts first finally the house extension, since brought Border Town eastern region refugees, must be responsible for their basic necessities of life. Freezes to death words that starves to death, is not only Western Region's loses, will also reduce the citizen regarding this place the sense of belonging. 考虑了片刻后,他最终决定将住宅扩建放到第一位,既然将东境逃民带到了边陲镇,就得对他们的衣食住行负责。冻死饿死的话,不仅是西境的损失,还会降低领民对此地的归属感。 „Which position then this temporary house does construct in?” Karl then asked. “那么这片临时住宅建在哪个位置？”卡尔接着问。 „Falls on the current serf shantytown,” Roland swept a map saying that „was far away from the city wall defense line, there is Impassable Mountains to be able shelter.” “就落在目前的农奴棚户区吧,”罗兰扫了眼地图道,“远离城墙防线,又有绝境群山可以遮风。” After Minister of Construction asks to be excused, he just wants by to nap on the chair, Cam Schuire walks. 建设部长告退后,他刚想靠在椅子上打个盹,凯莫.斯垂尔又找上门来。 „Your highness, large-scale system acid process that you request, I have succeeded to develop.” “殿下,您要求的大规模制酸法,我已成功研制出来了。” These words have scattered the Roland feeling of weariness immediately, he stands up to say from the table pleasantly surprised: „Really? Leads me to have a look quickly.” 这句话顿时驱散了罗兰的倦意,他惊喜地从桌位上站起道:“真的？快带我去看看。” The group come to near the Scarlet Water River laboratory, saw only by No. 5 laboratory to put up several iron grey jar and furnace, each jar about two people were high, the crown had the pipeline to be connected, the neat smooth contour was Anna cuts obviously. 一行人来到赤水河边的实验室,只见五号实验室旁搭设起了数个灰白色的罐子和一座炉窑,每个罐子约有两人高,顶部有管道相连,规整光滑的外形显然是安娜切割出来的。 „Salutes to you, Your highness,” looks like very young young fellow bows to salute to say to Roland. “向您致敬,殿下,”一名看起来十分年轻的小伙子向罗兰躬身行礼道。 „Are you James?” Although already knows that Cam dug a group of alchemy apprentices to come from Scarlet Water City, but also has won over outstanding alchemist, but he still for the first time saw the appearance of opposite party today. “你就是查美斯吧？”虽然早就知道凯莫从赤水城挖了一批炼金学徒过来,还拉拢了一位杰出的炼金师,但今天他尚是首次看到对方的模样。 „You actually remember my name,” James surprised say/way. “您竟然记得我的名字,”查美斯惊讶道。 „Mr. Cam once many times mentioned you,” Roland has patted his shoulder, encourages, „does well.” Afterward he looks to chief alchemist, „how does this thing make the acid?” “凯莫先生曾多次提到你,”罗兰拍了拍他的肩膀,以示鼓励,“好好干。”随后他望向首席炼金师,“这东西是怎么制酸的？” Cam feels the beard to say with a smile, „it can develop successfully, on equation Derivation according to «Elementary Chemistry» comes out completely. You look at that furnace, the sulfur after depuration will burn in the kiln, the gas of production after further heats up, sent in the casket.” 凯莫摸着胡子笑道,“它能研制成功,完全是按照《初等化学》上的反应式推导出来的。您看那座炉窑,提纯后的硫将在窑中燃烧,生成的气体经过进一步加热,被送入铅罐中。” „Are these installments the lead do?” “这些装置都是铅做的？” „Right, only then the lead can resist the corrosion of acid liquid.” Cam nods, „the lead pipe of jar peak sprinkles to contain the nitrosulphuric acid unceasingly, under the scalding hot sulphur dioxide gas, the nitric acid heating decomposes the nitrogen oxide, finally with the water and sulphur dioxide production sulphuric acid solution, is flowed out-- this response ingenious place only to play the role of transmission oxygen by bottom cave entrance in the nitrogen oxide, itself not consumes, therefore the nitric acid amount used is not big, responded, once starts, can work continuously!” “没错,只有铅才能抵抗酸液的腐蚀。”凯莫点点头,“罐子顶端的铅管不断洒下含硝硫酸,在灼热的二氧化硫气体下,硝酸受热分解成氮氧化物,最后与水、二氧化硫生成硫酸溶液,由底部的洞口流出——这个反应巧妙之处就在氮氧化物只起到传递氧的作用,本身并无消耗,所以硝酸用量不大,反应一旦开始,就能源源不断地进行下去！” „Its output how?” Roland pats the casket to ask excitedly. The large-scale system acid is the mass production smokeless gunpowder premise, if can solve this difficult problem, the new generation launched in salvos the flintlock and cannon ammunition is hopeful. “它的产量如何？”罗兰激动地拍着铅罐问道。大规模制酸是量产无烟火药的前提,若能解决这个难题,新一代连发火枪和火炮的弹药就都有希望了。 „This is I the fourth equipment that tries to make, day of output can be as good as laboratory dry distillation production law one week of weight/quantity probably.” Chief alchemist happily said that „, because has the factor of experiment, therefore its volume is not big. If can make a larger capacity casket, the output can also further enhance.” “这是我试做的第四个装置,一天的产出大概能抵得上实验室干馏制取法一周的分量。”首席炼金师得意地说,“因为有试验的因素,所以它的体积并不大。倘若能建造更大容量的铅罐,产量还可以进一步提高。” „This is really a good news,” Roland said with a smile, „, when Miss Anna returned, you immediately begin to construct large-scale system acid installment. Moreover the lead insufficient words can replace with the iron, Miss Soraya coating can make the iron hardware avoid the corrosion of acid liquid.” “这真是个好消息,”罗兰笑道,“等到安娜小姐归来,你就立刻着手建造更大规模的制酸装置吧。另外铅不够的话可以用铁代替,索罗娅小姐的涂层能使铁器免除酸液的腐蚀。” Smiling face that the Cam nod should, his below a few words then let the prince stiff on face. 凯莫点头应下,不过他的下一句话便让王子的笑容僵在脸上。 „Now the large-scale system acid process had the achievement, five laboratories completely have also filled up the apprentice, Your highness, «Intermediate Chemistry» that you granted whether can grant to me?” “如今大规模制酸法有了成果,五个实验室也全部填满了学徒,殿下,您允诺的《中等化学》是否能赏赐给我了？”
