Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair
Chapter 208 - Finding Interesting Adjustments To His Construction Plans"Welcome back clan head," Amelia led everyone to welcome him, and their faces were brimming with big wide smiles. He nodded to them as he said:
"Has anything major occurred recently?"
"Not a thing, everything is quite calm here," Omar replied, while pointing towards the huge digging occurring everywhere, "the work is already going smoothly, and with this huge number of workers, I'm sure most of this area would be turned into a huge digging place soon."
His remark made everyone smile, and Arthur laughed shortly on his words. "Just stop playing around and start assigning them to work. I will take a tour here then move out to gather the next batch."
Everyone just exchanged happy glances before they chuckled. It was really nice to have such a mighty leader. Arthur then started to move inside the great place of his city.
According to the towns he already conquered, the mere size of his city was over twenty towns combined. He knew his city wouldn't stop growing, and this current wave of construction would form only the core for the future plan in his mind.
But he was really content with such progress. What he cared about right now was the walls, and defenses. The towers in this world villages and towns were really weak and short, and the walls were thin and fragile.
He just hoped his walls and towers would be executed as he wanted. So, he started to take a very detailed tour around parts of the walls and great section of towers, checking over the foundations laid to the ground.
He was pleased to see the excellent state of the current foundations, with the addition of the newly joined villagers brilliant ideas like smelting the rocks and hammering the mix before sending it to cool down in the deep holes inside the land.
Also they added some modifications to the hole dug by them. Arthur just asked for the towers to have a fifty meters deep pit, filled entirely with rocks. However when he glanced at one of the recently dug holes, he was astonished to see after reaching the required depth of his drawing, the workers kept digging separate deep holes with fixed spaces between each other.
The sight looked like a honeycomb from above, and these workers then spilled the melted mix of ores coming from the mountains into these holes, forming very long and deep pillars after cooling off.
Arthur admired this modification, and then he turned to look at one of the workers here, as he asked:
"Tell me, who is the owner of this idea?" Arthur pointed towards the many small holes in the bottom of the hole he was standing next to it.
"Esteemed lord, it's one of the workers called Deem," the worker he asked recognized him, replying at once while deeply bowing his head.
"Good, keep the hard work," Arthur then took out one of his bird's wings, wrote the name of that brilliant worker in it, and sent it to Amelia, asking her to find this genius and bring him to the main eastern gate to meet.
Arthur then continued his tour, and so far everyone was quite busy digging and laying down the foundations. To melt all the ores required to build the city, a huge empty area was turned into a huge stretch of large oven, while many workers were going back and forth, carrying ores taken from the mountains to here.
Arthur knew the nature of the ores in these mountains were earth type, which was a good thing to use in building sturdy buildings. After a couple of hours, he went to the place of the eastern gate, with Lily following him silently all this time.
She was enjoying this tour in a very different way. As a girl coming from a nameless clan's small village, she was very interested in seeing all these new stuff on her.
Everything seemed magically alluring to her, and she was always busy watching what these workers were doing, and she wondered how they would build the towers, walls, and the different buildings in the city.
When Arthur went to the gate, he noticed Ron standing there talking to someone. He was a young man, mostly twenty one years old, however all his hair was ice white in color, giving him a very distinctive look from far.
The moment Arthur and Lily went nearer, the two in front stopped talking, while Ron smiled and welcomed Arthur by saying:
"Clan head, this is Deem, the one you asked for."
Arthur smiled back, nodded to Deem as he observed him. Despite knowing Arthur's identity, Deem seemed not to be fazed by his aura and fame. He stood calmly while slightly bowing his head in greeting for Arthur.
"I heard you are the one to suggest the idea of making pillars in the base of the foundations, right?"
Ron hurriedly glanced at him, while Deem suddenly showed a nervous expression, so Arthur added:
"Don't worry, I'm admiring your idea. I didn't bring you here today to punish you, but to discuss further about any ideas you might have in mind."
The eyes of Deem shone brightly, as his face changed from being nervous to being excited, as he hurriedly said:
"Thanks a lot esteemed lord for your generosity and praise. I really had many ideas in mind, but no one supported them except for the smelting ores idea and the pillars idea."
It was the turn for Arthur's eyes to shine brightly when he heard his words. Arthur never thought that the owner of such brilliant two ideas was the same person! That meant he had found a gem, an unpolished one.
"Come, let's talk and walk side by side around this gate. Tell me everything you have in mind, and I promise I won't treat you badly."
Arthur then walked heading to the site of the great hole of the foundation of the main gate here.. "Esteemed lord, I have seen your drawings and they all inspired me to make some adjustments, if you allowed me to do so."
