Game of Thrones' opening sold the gods

Chapter 53 53. The first step ahead

The people of Westeros are very indifferent to the change of years, and even very vague about the change of years.

For this reason, Sean could only roughly determine the specific date of the year according to local methods, and asked the nobles to report the time to the people under their rule every half a month.

At the same time, they also recruited a large number of low-level bachelors from the academy, or down-and-out knights and nobles who could read and write.

Due to cost issues, Theon could not publish newspapers as expected. He could only produce a small amount of newspapers and distribute them to the noble knights by letters. Then, on the last three days of each month, he arranged for the bachelors to read the newspapers in a fixed place. content.

In fact, this is not a newspaper, it can only be regarded as a notice. There is no way to do this. The Industrial Bureau has a paper craftsman who is responsible for researching low-cost paper.

Because of the general idea provided by Theon, and the fact that Westeros papermaking is not too far behind, the progress is still good.

Under the implementation of Theon's many measures, Pike Island has developed extremely rapidly. Although its own resources are poor, the economic development is still visible to the naked eye.

The next day, a letter came from King's Landing, which probably asked Theon to appear in court to accuse Tyrion of poisoning the king, and asked Theon to arrive in King's Landing within two weeks.

Handing the envelope to Andre, Theon sneered and said, "If it was before, they would ask me to go to King's Landing, but now, have you seen what the letter says?"

"Tywin asked me to arrive in King's Landing within 15 days, and what he meant was as if I would be sorry to Joffrey if I didn't go." Theon complained.

Andre thinks this is normal. You were taught by His Majesty Joffrey so smoothly before, but now you are talking about Joffrey.

Of course, Andre just complained in his heart, "Your Majesty, I think you can ignore it completely, just find an excuse to shirk it."

When Andre said this, his back was straight. Tom Bill had just bought [-] good horses from Essos, and the first batch of [-] horses had already arrived in the riverland.

Theon made some adjustments to the Westerosi saddle, and also installed horseshoes on the warhorse.

This allowed the cavalry under Theon's command to quickly control the horses while maintaining their combat effectiveness for a long time without worrying about the wear and tear of the horseshoes.

In the era of cold weapons, war horses are like tanks. Once they form an impact, they can easily break through the infantry phalanx that is several times their own.

At the same time, battles in the world of Game of Thrones seldom appear "soldiers, deceit!", so it is particularly important to have an elite cavalry.

"Your Majesty, good news!" A burly man rushed into Theon's office.

"Truss, how many times have I told you, don't be so reckless, hurry up and apologize to His Majesty!" After speaking, Andre winked at Truss frantically.

"Prime Minister Andre, did you get sand in your eyes? Why are you blinking?" Truss asked curiously, forgetting what he was doing for a while.

"Pfft, well, what's the matter with you, Telas?" Theon knew Telas, the son of a very famous blacksmith on Great Wake Island.

Because he often invented some "flashy" things, he was driven out of the house by the old blacksmith to make a living by himself.

After wandering to Pike Island, he heard that Theon was recruiting a nimble blacksmith, and Truss volunteered to sign up, and even took out many drawings he had drawn.

It happened that Theon was walking his dog at that time, and when he saw Telas' blueprint, he was shocked. He immediately took Tras-Mogdin under his command, and gave him the "Encyclopedia of Sea Monsters" and [-] golden dragons.

Then Theon forgot about him and put him in the Engineering Bureau.

Truss handed the blueprint in his hand to Theon, with a very strong expression on his face.

Theon took the blueprint curiously. He wanted to see what made this 15-year-old researcher with a height of [-] meters face him so arrogantly.

But Xi En took a look at the blueprint, looked up in shock and asked, "Did you f*ck make it?"

"Of course, the first sample has been made!" Truss praised me with an expression.

"Quick, show me!"

The two of them left quickly, leaving only Andre with a confused face, not knowing what happened.

The Mogos River, an inland river on Pike Island, is fast-moving and not suitable for fishing. As a result, there are not many surrounding villages and sparsely populated.

At this moment, a simple building rose from the ground around the Mogos River.

Truss took Theon to a machine that was being assembled. This is the good news that Truss said, the first hydraulic forging and hammering machine.

Once the experiment on this simple and primitive forging machine in Theon's view is successful, then the hydraulic drilling machine and the hydraulic grinding machine will not be far away.

At that time, the efficiency of forging weapons and armor in the Iron Islands will be greatly improved!

The machine was assembled until the afternoon. Under Theon's expectant eyes, the runner fell into the water, and the hammer on the head of the machine began to swing up and down regularly.

"Okay! Everyone involved in the production will be rewarded with five hundred golden dragons each, and one thousand golden dragons for Tesla!"

Hearing Theon's reward, the craftsmen around were stunned. A golden dragon was equivalent to [-] RMB. These blacksmiths had never seen so much money!

Not to mention five hundred gold dragons, even five hundred silver coins are an unparalleled reward for them!

However, Sean not only rewarded them wantonly, Sean also planned to announce the award to the entire Engineering Bureau, and at the same time nominated and praised Tesla's small team.

Comparison is always the best way to motivate, and the staff of the Engineering Bureau felt that the opportunity to make a fortune was right in front of them for the first time!
They were all craftsmen from various backgrounds, and after entering the Engineering Bureau, they were divided into different so-called teams, and then they continued to study some weird things according to His Majesty's will.

Not only do they study things that they don't understand during the day, but they also follow the bachelors to read, read, and learn arithmetic at night.

His Majesty has worked hard to invent a set of suggested calculation methods, otherwise they will be even more uncomfortable.

However, they still have a salary of [-] silver coins per month, which is a golden dragon in two months, which makes many people start to dawdle unconsciously.

However, when Truss' team made a breakthrough in research and the news that each person was rewarded with five hundred golden dragons reached their ears, many people's mentality quietly changed.

Xi En looked at the "revived" Gongqi Bureau with satisfaction, and thought to himself that the money was not wasted.

Theon is not a fool, so he naturally saw that the Engineering Bureau was gradually "loosing", so he took this opportunity to activate the Engineering Bureau.

Of course, this is just the beginning. After another year or so, the Gongqi Bureau will start kicking out all those who intend to dawdle, and the remaining elites will be the future team of the Gongqi Bureau.

If the nobles of Westeros are willing to use their money to develop their territories instead of staying in the castle to eat ashes, Westeros will definitely not be in the middle ages in 8000 years.

When the first batch of hydraulic machine tool workshops were completed, the iron mines on Great Wake Island became particularly important.

On the other hand, Theon mobilized [-] soldiers to station on the periphery of the "Mogos Manufacturing Plant", and strictly controlled the approach of irrelevant personnel.

At the same time, a large number of 'staff dormitories' began to be built in the surrounding area, and the Morgos manufacturing plant will be the first "iron rice bowl" in the Iron Islands.

Pike Island is undergoing many changes quietly, and at the moment the nobles of Westeros are still playing 'Game of Thrones'.
