"Gudong? (Master, what exactly should I do?)"
"You can use your cheek pouch?"
"Boom! (Yes!)"
"Can your cheek pouch hold something?"
"Gudong? Gudong! (Package? No problem at all!)"
"How big can it hold?"
"Gudong! (Master, let me show you!)"
The little guy pointed to the opposite side of the backyard with his front foot, where there was a rock with a diameter of two meters.
Seeing this rock, I raised an eyebrow.
"No way?"
Gudong's [Cheek Pouch Storage (LV1)] skill is still beyond my expectations.
Before I could continue speaking, the little guy moved, picked up the rock with his front paws, and stuffed it into one cheek pouch.
"Gudong! (Master, I did it!)"
Seeing Gudong's bulging cheek pouches made me feel a little worried. I heard that hamsters store food in their cheek pouches. But, can things like rocks that are not food be put in?
"Is there any problem with putting rocks in there?"
"Gudong! (Totally no problem, Master.)"
Gudong stretched out his front paws and patted its chest, then nodded proudly. With Gudong's nod, the two-meter-high rock swayed back and forth in Gudong's cheek pouch, looking very powerful.
Now I find that, besides being able to replace heavy machinery for construction, Gudong can also be like a tank.
Even the rocks it carries in its cheek pouches can be shells for tanks.
Compared with Gudong, the elephants I saw in the zoo are like puppies in the community.
"Okay, Gudong, now spit out the rock."
Gudong nodded, and then spat out the rock, like a tank firing a shell. When the rock was spit out and fell to the ground, it made me feel the ground shaking.
"Great job, Gudong. Now would you like to try this?"
As I said that, I took out the blue melon seeds and stretched them out in front of Gudong.
"Gudong! (Yes, master!)"
Gudong carefully picked up the blue melon seeds from my hand and put them in his mouth. The Gudong who swallowed the melon seeds instantly became smaller.
I walked over and hugged Gudong who was bouncing on the ground into my arms. At this point, the little guy looked very sleepy, and then got into my coat pocket.
I gently stroked Gudong's head.
"Very successful, problem with heavy equipment solved."
To be honest, Gudong's performance far exceeded my expectations.
"The 20-meter-long and 2-meter-deep trench was dug in three minutes. Even if it was flattened, it did a good job. Even, Gudong was able to put a rock weighing several tons in a cheek pouch..."
what does that mean?
If you use heavy equipment to complete the above work, you need high-performance scrapers, perfect road rollers, and large loading and unloading vehicles.
As for Gudong, it can fully perform these three functions by itself, and its work efficiency is even higher than that of the corresponding heavy equipment. And also has the characteristics of easy to carry.
In this regard, I feel that the SR points consumed are really worth the money.
Looking at the sleeping Gudong in my pocket, I thought I should hide this guy for now.
In order to reasonably explain Gudong's appearance, I think I should look for a summoning magic book. I can explain to others that Gudong is my summoned creature.
In this way, even if one day I have to expose the existence of Gudong to the eyes of others, I can give a reasonable explanation to avoid others' suspicion of me.
"Now that the problem of heavy equipment has been solved, the next link is the formal construction!"
Since the number of construction contracts is quite large, in order to be able to complete the contracts before the residents complain, I plan to start the construction work tomorrow.
However, for such a project volume. In addition to Gudong's help, I also want to form a professional construction team. This team needs to be composed of technicians and elite workers who can work in an orderly manner on site, as well as talents who can lead them. "
I have long had the idea of forming a construction team. Because, if you want to complete large-scale construction projects efficiently and reasonably, professional division of labor and tacit cooperation are essential.
Moreover, this team must have long-term stability. Because this can ensure that members of the construction team can accumulate corresponding professional experience and cultivate mutual understanding, thereby improving the overall construction efficiency of the team.
The reason why I choose to start now is also because I want to persuade Baron Albert to give me the command of the soldiers in the territory.
If I hadn't done the floor heating work, and hadn't taken out the money to pay the interest on this month's debt, I'm afraid Baron Albert would not have agreed to my request at all.
I quickly went back to the bedroom, then gently took out Gudong from the pocket of my jacket, put it under the quilt, and let it continue to sleep.
And I sat gently at the desk, picked up the paper and pen, and began to list all the main characters who appeared at the beginning of the novel.
In the room, apart from the occasional sound of the fireplace burning all night, there are only the sound of pen writing on paper and the sound of grunting.
···
the next morning
According to the description in the novel, Baron Albert's territory is an ordinary rural territory located in the corner of the Lauraya continent.
Even in such a rural territory, the size of its standing troops is not small:
Baron Albert has 5 knights and 100 soldiers. However, Baron Albert did not conduct regular military training for these soldiers. Therefore, whether it is discipline or combat effectiveness, these soldiers are not much better than farmers who have worked for a long time.
Today is a sunny morning, perfect for construction.
In the sunlight, Aaron looked at the 80 soldiers gathered by the river and said loudly:
"Starting today, you are going to work with me. You may think that this is not a soldier's job."
Seeing that these soldiers were either listless or impatient, I suddenly raised my voice:
However, when our lord encounters difficulties, as soldiers, don't we have the obligation to help our Baron Albert solve the difficulties? "
I pointed to the mound of earth by the river, and said:
"Starting today, this is your battlefield. I will be here and fight with you!"
The soldiers were a little surprised by my speech.
In their inherent cognition, Aaron is just a bastard young master. Such a guy would want to help his family, and even be able to give such a speech?
I didn't care about their reaction, but gave the order directly. Because, as soldiers, at least they are more obedient than ordinary residents.
"Do you see these mounds?" I pointed to the mounds piled up by the river with my finger. "Now, I need you to transport these mounds to the other side."
Why are there so many mounds by the river?
This is because I came here in the early hours of the morning, and then let the gigantic Gudong dig out all the loess buried under the ground, and pile them together.
Gudong's work efficiency is very high. It only took half an hour to build a large-scale loess collection site by the river.
When daylight came, I brought here eighty soldiers from the camp.
And I asked them to transport the loess for the purpose of transporting the loess to the construction site as construction raw materials.
In my plan, I hope to develop these soldiers into professional construction team members.
Therefore, even if I can make the gigantic Gudong complete the transportation of loess in a short period of time, I still hand over this work to these soldiers.
At the same time, the work of transporting loess can also become a physical exercise for these soldiers.
Imagine that if you walk with a bag full of loess on your shoulders, you can feel that your lower body, from the waist to the core of the abdomen, shoulders and back, and the anterior wrist muscles can be exercised.
At the same time, this can be used not only as strength training, but also as endurance and balance training.
Therefore, this job can not only help to speed up the construction progress, but also can be used as daily training for soldiers, which can be said to be a very good job.
"I know that it will be very hard. However, the work you have done will not only help the residents survive a warm winter, but also help the baron get out of financial difficulties."
"...Yes, master."
Only a few soldiers responded to me reluctantly.
