Chapter 633: Temporary Workers in the Intermission, I Used Temporary Workers

*Only Ramizane would dare to do this without getting into trouble.

“…So, this dam must be built?”

"Yes, my lord. This important Corinthian Dam can not only block the construction sites we need to build ports, power plants and other factories downstream, but also provide a large amount of electricity and water resources for additional construction in the region without interruption. However, if it is completed before the time you mentioned..."

“But such a short deadline will take a huge toll on the construction workers!”

"The estimated loss of personnel is 79 percent... We can complete the mission! Father!"

"A 79 percent mortality rate is even higher than a war! Are you trying to cause a mutiny?!"

"No, sir. Some of our battalions launched attacks according to your orders in the previous battle. At least with an 83% casualty rate, we can still return to the organization..."

"... [Gutai swearing], what a sin, Old Deng, look at what you wrote and stuffed into the children's heads!"

Although he didn't know what Laoden was, Fricks still carefully added this new word to the Primarch's quotation list.

The Lord of Steel, sitting at his desk, frowned as he looked at various construction drawings with tight deadlines, wondering what he was thinking.

Finally, it was clear that the great Lord Perturabo had a plan in mind.

"So that's it." Fricks, Dantioch, and several senior officers nominated by Fricks to come in for observation were all perked up and pricked up their ears.

"Well... the main reason limiting the construction of this important dam project is actually the lack of manpower, right? Heavy machinery alone cannot work well in this terrain, and the construction period is too tight."

"That's right, my Lord."

"So, in addition to manpower, there is actually no shortage of raw materials, fuel, and other things to build this place...including food and drinks, right?"

Chief Trident was confused by the repeated confirmation of such simple questions, but the inquiry of the Father of Genes forced him to answer.

"Yes, my Lord, we just lack manpower." Flicker paused, "Even if we use the existing mechas, it is still not enough. Modifying their mechanical limbs and the subsequent debugging work still require a large number of manpower, especially professional technicians."

"... Even so, I will not release those brain statues and install mechanical shells until I am sure that they have completely worked for us and cannot come back. You know, Fricks, I mentioned to you that we still have to continue to deal with the envoys of the Mechanicus and others until the time I set arrives."

"Your will. I'm sorry."

"Well... Well, I'm going to go out for a while, taking Dantioch and Urdeck with me. Can you and Kelly Fanny take care of this place while I'm gone?"

"My Lord?!" Chief Trident was panicked, "Your current state..."

"I know. Don't worry. I don't plan to go to some remote place, nor do I plan to be away for a long time. I'll be back right away after I do something."

"Then you...?" "Fricks, don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask. Just prepare the supplies and other things by the river bank at the time I specify."

The legend of the Olympian Iron God's fastest construction is now spreading wildly around the city-state of Corinth.

On the first day, people saw supplies, steel, unpolished stones, food and water being transported and piled up on the cliffs and river banks. They were told not to leave their houses. Legion soldiers would deliver food and water every day. All windows, doors and gaps facing the river where the dam was to be built were blocked.

The next day, some people said they smelled a strange odor and heard weird noises, some said they smelled nothing but the animals in their homes were very frightened, and some said they heard the footsteps of the patrolling legionnaires becoming heavier and seemed full of anger.

On the third day, still nothing happened, only the sound of the legion soldiers patrolling.

On the fourth day, when people were notified to leave their homes, they all gathered on the river bank and exclaimed in amazement at the miracle construction of the God-King.

look!

The materials, steel, stone and other things that were originally just materials have all disappeared, and there is only a completed dam.

The dam, with its graceful curves, is eight hundred feet high, so majestic, white, smooth, and rising from the ground.

At the entrance of the power station and other buildings on the top of it, lines of Iron Warriors technical sergeants were entering with cables, and soon there were flashes of light indicating the start of work. Lines were connected to the pre-erected iron towers around it. It seemed as if it was born there and had been working well for the people of Olympia for several years, blending in with the surrounding mountain walls.

Then within days, residents closest to the dam, apart from the factory, would be able to flip the switch with awe and caution at night in the marble rooms of their homes.

Then the light filled the rooms large and small.

From the most magnificent cultural palace to the lowest shepherd's hut, warm orange and yellow light splashes into the deep blue night from every window.

The light bulbs that lit up after being powered on were so bright and dazzling that the women immediately worked overtime to weave new covers with yarn to cover the bulbs so that their eyes would not be hurt by the night light.

To be able to build such a wonder that benefits everyone in three days, what else could it be but a miracle?

Later they learned that the same miraculous event occurred throughout Olympia within six days, and many infrastructure projects that could not be carried out simultaneously due to lack of manpower were completed within six days.

Multiple terrain shifts, multiple dams, power stations, road and rail tunnels, large underground facilities, the foundation of a spaceport...

In the face of such an irrefutable spectacle, not only did the people of the city-state of Corinth immediately accept the statements of the priestesses among them and add the name of the God of Steel to the pantheon of the Olympian gods to enjoy sacrifices together, but even the most stubborn and skeptical scholars and philosophers and the most hostile Olympians who had been deprived of their status, property or family members began to appear in secret at this year's sacrificial gathering to pray for a good harvest.

- Of course, no one knows what people did specifically when they celebrated the festival, and the Iron Warriors who witnessed that the Father of Genes was so sick and confused that he made such a big mistake swore together that they would not let anyone get hold of their father's handle to deal with him.

Therefore, when Ramizane Kalosini was asked what he had done to speed up the infrastructure construction so quickly that a batch of supplies were accumulated so quickly, he could blink mysteriously and say very sincerely, "It was temporary workers. I hired temporary workers."
