《Nova Roma》In the farm part 2
Advertisement
The light of a new day illuminated the face of Flavio, who stared at the ceiling with a lost look "Here we go again".
Flavio's morning routine can be described as boring, he gets up at 8 a.m. to go to the bathroom but he needs to use the sponge "Very soon you will be in the past stupid sponge"
Then he goes to the lavatrina of the house (Bath for the Romans) and washes their body
"I must take advantage of that I am in the field to create soap and I can not bear to just bathe with water but its better than only use oil that is disgusting
But even all that is small with the way the teeth were washed, my parents and the principal servants used urine, I almost vomited when they offered me that disgusting thing
Fortunately as I am a child, I had no misfortune to prove it personally before I unlock my memory, I forced them to never touch urine for brush the teeth again, instead, I made a mixture with ground mint and charcoal, have a flavor like rays but is no urine which is win-win "
After washing the body and teeth is placed his silk clothes and goes towards the triclinium (Dining room for the Romans).
Breakfast has changed quite a lot thanks to the orders of Flavio on the table you can see freshly baked white bread and honey in a small jar, As the main course you can see a plate of scrambled egg and drink there is hot milk freshly milked cow, also on the table is that there is a kind of thin bread in the form of saucer, and next to it is the same thin bread but with cheese
Yesterday Flavio taught how to do what he called flour tortilla, he also said that once prepared the tortilla it is placed cheese bends to let it heat again and the cheese melts, he call that quesadilla and made it very clear that it has cheese it is quesadilla, if the tortilla contains any other food it is called taco and if the taco is Put cheese on it is still taco.

Thanks to Flavio's efforts in the 21st century, there was never a quarrel over the quesadilla with cheese or without cheese (in the author's comments you can find the link to a curious animation that explains why this last line)
After having a slightly more familiar breakfast Flavio was in a good mood and went to his father's studio, to draw some necessary plans, a few hours later Sadiki entered the studio and informed him that the architect Marco had arrived
Flavio indicated that let him in, the architect Marco was a man about 30 years old who was surprised that the person who had summoned him was a 5-year-old boy
"Welcome architect I was waiting for you, I hope you can help me build some things that are quite special, but before that, you need to look into my eyes is the protocol of this house"
After doing what was necessary Flavio showed him 5 papyrus, Marco was surprised by the detail of the plans, he had never seen that level of detail before but he did not understand those strange letters that the plans had
"Very well I'm glad you like it but first of all take this other papyrus will help you to understand the construction plans"
Flavio placed 3 more papyrus on the table Marco looked curiously at the content of that papyrus when he took one forsee he was surprised to see a lot of text explaining the conversion between units that he knew (Romans) and others called universal system
There was also the conversion of the numbers that he knew to these other numbers called imperial (Arabs) what surprised him most was the facility to make large sums, all by the curious number "0" that It represents nothing, but it allows us to do a great variety of calculations
Marco knew that this knowledge was very important, he looked at Flavio and said "You can count with my loyalty young master, nobody else will see these scrolls even if it costs me my life "
Flavio nodded in satisfaction "Now let me explain these scrolls, we'll start with the simplest to the most complicated"

He pointed out the first of the plans "This is called chicken coop, it is a safe house for chickens where they can put their eggs without worries, I hope you can make a few chicken coop, Although chickens seem insignificant they are very important for the meat and eggs, one egg can provide a lot of nutrients without mentioning the wide variety of applications thereof "
Flavio took the second plane "This is a building that called the area of 3 uses, its application will be necessary to create fertilizer, as for the creation of food for chickens (Worms), as soon as the third will see in the future
This building I need you to do a small simple version for the farm, the full version you will start to create in the strong Dovahkiin, you can see my father to receive the necessary labor, the small version I need it no later than in 2 days "
Flavio left the 2 planes and grabbed the 3 "This is a water tower has the function to store water and occupies the force of gravity to distribute it through pipes, you are going to build two of them, one in the fort and another one in the palace, are very important for me
I hate to bathe in the bathtub I prefer the shower, as soon as the delivery tries not to take more than 3 months if it is necessary artisans ask for them "
Flavio left the 3 and showed the 4 planes "This beautiful workshop is urgent that is built in the fort in 1 month you have the unlimited budget the value of the factory of the paper should not be passed!"
Flavio left the 4 planes and showed the 5 "This building will be built in the fort, I called propaganda ministry, as to its function is a state secret, I hope you can keep the pipes marked in the building, it will be one of the first buildings in tap water,
Also, I hope you can occupy the same mechanism to create a network of water pipes in the palace, do not worry about the denars for the works if you need just ask and you will have it if at any time you have any questions just look for me"
After spending an entire afternoon talking to Marco Flavio went to sadiki and asked him to bring a disposable slave, white ash, some containers, dry grass, lard, olive oil and water, everything necessary to create soap
Sadiki scored in a papyrus the process to create soap along with the recommendations that gave his master, to create soap it is quite simple but dangerous due to the reaction that produces ash (bleach)
One slave in the experiment suffered severe burns in the skin and eyes due to the handling Without precaution the compound created by the ash, Master called it bleach and said that it can be used to make paper and wash clothes, but that for clothes to be lowered
He also mentioned that people who occupy bleach must occupy leather gloves and eye protection glasses, the master also explained that the protective glasses are made with leather and two pieces of glass, he made a small drawing and asked that I order them to manufacture with some craftsman
After ending the suffering of the poor slave, master just said is a small step for science but a great leap for Roma, after removing the corpse, another slave was called unlike the first one this only made some mixes with lard, butter with olive oil, or only olive oil, after that very carefully added the bleach and let it rest, also added dry lavender, master said that after 7 days of rest the soap could be occupied to wash the body
He also mentioned that we used the same recipe but without lavender to make soap from clothes.
Before leaving he drew a device to wash clothes called lavoir, said he would send it to a stonemason, he described it as an extremely useful apparatus to wash clothes, after that Flavio dinner and went to his room to sleep, tomorrow he has that show the function of the ring in the nose.
