After Maxing out all Classes

Chapter 23: Archimedes, do you know?

The Mason soon arrived. The town wasnt big, so it took only a few minutes for the middle-aged woman to find the Mason. Just like the blacksmith just now, he was also a simple and honest middle-aged man. As soon as he saw Robb, he quickly looked respectfully, "My father. I heard that you're looking for a Mason. I'm happy to help you."

Robb did not beat around the bush and said directly, "I need you to cut off the chapel roof and build a reservoir of water on it."

"Huh?" The Mason was startled, "Father, this can't be done. Building a reservoir on the roof is too heavy. The chapel will collapse easily and will easily leak like its raining."

Robb carefully thought about it. Hes right. The building standards of here still haven't reached the level of building water reservoirs on the roofs of houses and chapels.

"I'll tell you what. Build a small stone tower on the clearing next to the chapel, which is next to the well, and then build a reservoir on top of that tower," Robb said.

"I can do this." The Mason quickly saluted: "But it takes a little more strength, and a lot of stones need to be moved. I don't have enough strength alone."

Manpower's quite troublesome for ordinary people to get, but for the rich, it is simple. Robb suddenly thought, I used to take tasks in the game and was commanded by NPCs. Now its my turn to take command.

Okay, time to release a building mission.

He took out two gold coins, smiled, and said, "Okay, now I'll give you a mission, that is, to help me build a small stone tower as high as the roof, and build a big reservoir on it. These two gold coins are the reward. Think of a way yourself to hire people. I dont have to care."

The Mason was overjoyed. The manpower of this broken town was valued at two gold coins. He could invite many people to line up and carry stones with less than a dozen silver coins. Deducting the cost of materials, he'll earn at least one gold coin upon completion of this mission.

He said happily, My father, please leave t to me.

The Mason used all the commendatory words he knew to praise Robb and left happily.

Three days later!

Beside the well, a wide and thick stone tower was erected. Since the top of the tower is to be built with a reservoir, the stone tower cannot be built very small and must be built with a big arm and waist. The bottom is solid with stone, and the middle is not hollow like an ordinary "Tower" at all. It was filled with stone. It is not so much a stone tower as a stone mountain.

The stone mountain was built by twenty townspeople, who kept carrying stones from the rocky slopes on the hillside, built under the command of the Mason for three days, and the cracks between the stones were glued with a strange kind of mud. Each of them was paid only three silver coins, and in this manner, they were already

pleased.

The Mason pasted layer after layer of waterproof material in the top-most part of the reservoir. To be honest, Robb didn't understand how people prevented water leaks in this era. He couldn't figure out this strange material, but it didn't matter. Anyway, it's good to be able to store water in the end.

"Father!" The Mason courteously said to Robb, Now it's ready; after it dries, you can store water in it. If it rains before it dries, I'll get here immediately and cover it with a tarp."

Robb said, "Good, these two gold coins are yours."

The Mason took the money and said, "Thank you, God of Light, and thank you, Father."

Thanking God again? Fine, if you're not benevolent, I'm not righteous.

Robb assumed a magnificent look: "Oh, my child, the God of Light will remember your dedication to the chapel."

This is called treating him in his own way. Since you like to thank the God of Light so much, I will let the God of Light remember your dedication. As for me, of course, I will not remember. I want to be a feudal landlord with no feelings. Hum!

After collecting the money, the Mason looked curiously at the stone tower towering by the well, "Father, what on earth are you doing? Although I made this thing for you, I don't think it is practical. Why should the reservoir be built so high? How can water storage be used like this? Do you have to build a ladder to climb every time you have to use water?"

Robb smiled and said, "well, don't worry yet! The answer will show up soon. "

At this point, the blacksmith came and brought many iron pipes of different lengths and several faucets.

As soon as he saw Robb, he saluted respectfully, greeted the God of Light first, and then his father, "My father, I finished the iron pipes and faucets as you asked, and after I got the techniques you taught me, I quickly made the iron pipe, but the faucet was so difficult that it took a lot of time."

"It doesn't matter. Understandably, it'd take some time." Robb smiled and said to the Mason, "Help the blacksmith and put these pipes in the innermost part of the reservoir."

The blacksmith didn't know what he was doing yet, but as soon as he saw the pipes, he looked up at the reservoir built high above and suddenly understood it. After all, he is a professional who often deals with muddy water, and the reason why water flows downwards is more apparent to him than to anyone else.

"Hey, hey, hey?" The Mason shouted, "I seem to understand something. It turns out this is how the reservoir is used? My God!"

The Mason felt as if he had learned something.

However, he soon sat down on the ground and growled, "No! Although it seems more convenient to get water, if it doesn't rain, there will be no water in the reservoir, and itll end up being useless. Even if the next rainstorm fills it up, it will run out as long as it doesn't rain for a few days. Although the idea of adding iron pipes to this high reservoir is great, it is actually not very practical."

Robb patted the Mason on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Archimedes, do you know?"

"I know!" The Mason nodded abruptly and said, "Archimedes, the most famous specialist of ancient devils, is known to all on this continent."

Robb said, "Great devil specialist? Ahem!"

Well, it seems that Archimedes exists in this world, but he is no longer an ordinary mathematician but a devil specialist; forget it, that's not the point! First of all, Robb said, "Archimedes solved the pumping problem a long time ago. Its name is Archimedes Water Screw."
