Chapter 136: Smooth and steady
People in this world have never seen "real rubber," so no one can imagine what Robb is talking about.
Robb, of course, didn't bother to explain. He asked Gorda to take out the natural rubber and put it on the ground.
Lillian was asked to take out the sulfur and carbon black that had been prepared, which were already widely used in the world, so it was easy for him to say hello to the traveling merchant and buy a lot of them.
Robb uses "Engineer" skills. Choose materials: natural rubber, sulfur, carbon black.
Synthesis!
Item obtained Rubber!
When the onlookers saw him put these three things on the ground, they couldn't help being a little confused about what he would do. But as soon as Robb raised his hand, the three things on the ground merged together and finally became a dark, strange colloid of some kind.
Magicians are curious about the unknown, so Xuelu was the first to take the rubber and tap it first. It felt soft and flexible, but at the same time, with a sense of toughness and durability.
She tried to bend it with her hand and saw that it bent, but as soon as she let go, it bounced back.
Huh? This thing is kind of interesting. Xuelu said, "there is strength, but also elasticity. If this thing is used to wrap the tire, it may really work."
Robb said with a smile, "it's inevitable. All right, don't say nonsense, carpenters. Take out the mold I asked you to prepare in advance."
The carpenters had long been instructed by Robb to make a "Rubber tire mold," which was made according to the size of the "wooden wheels of the wheelchair." Robb heated the rubber and put it into the mold, and after a while, the cooling was finished.
The carpenters took it out of the mold, turning it into a beautiful rubber ring.
Of course, the rubber ring made by this very primitive method is a lot worse than the rubber rings made by an industrial assembly line, but Robb did not expect it to be better in the first place. All is fine as long as he is able to use it.
He can finally see Westwind Town running normally.
Smooth roads were built all over Westwind Town, thanks to the three hundred Templar Knights, who built all the main roads in the town, making Robb's wheelchair journey even smoother.
"Well, the Templar Knights are doing a good job."
Lillian said with a smile, "Yes, master, the Templar Knights have a good reputation in the town. Everyone says they are good people and are great knights."
Robb couldn't help laughing, "that's right. That's what the clergy do. That's what makes them look good."
Lillian whispered, "They were forced to do it by master. If you hadn't been here, they wouldn't have done so obediently for the people. I know a lot now."
Robb gave her a thumbs-up.
While the two were talking, three middle-aged women came from the front not so far away, laughing and chatting as they walked. The townswomen spoke loudly and could be heard from a distance, "this month I have knitted 27 pairs of stockings. I only need another 13 pairs to complete my task. The factory director said I did a good job and gave me a bonus. "
"Oh, you are that good? I've only knitted nineteen pairs. If it goes on like this, I'm going to have money deducted this month. I have to hurry up later.
The third female worker said with a smile, "I have knitted 30 pairs this month, and I am the best! My husband also got a high reputation in the spider breeding department. Hahaha, my family's salary will be very high this month. "
The other two female workers said admiringly, "how envious it is that you both work in the factory! My husband couldn't get into the factory, so now he could only dig in the mine to earn hard money. "
"Don't worry!" The third female worker said, "my husband told me top-secret news from the spider breeding department. The old hunter is breeding two big spiders. Soon a new batch of small spiders will be born. At that time, the factory will certainly have to expand its members. You must hurry to get your husbands ready and squeeze in first."
Huh? The previous two women were surprised, "aren't the four big spiders female? How do they breed?"
The third female worker said with a smile, "the factory director took out a sum of money and asked Mr. Gorda's party to catch another big spider, a male spider. I heard the breeding was very smooth, and a new batch of little spiders will be born soon."
So thats how it is! The previous two women were overjoyed, "the factory is going to have another recruitment. That's great. Let's talk about it to our husbands tonight."
