《Restarting life as a peasant》Chapter 6
Advertisement
In the modern world we have a lot of distractions, keeping us from doing what we truly want to do. In this medieval fantasy world if you are a peasant you have a lot of manual labor to do, work is tiresome and you left with little energy. But I had the best of both worlds, I had a job with a little actual work. All the village's smiting work had been done. Other than odd broken farming tools I was free, also I didn’t need to worry about living expenses for now because I lived with my family. First thing first, I needed a much better furnace, something capable of much higher heat, so I looked for clay and without much issue I found the necessary amount. I built it and fired it with wood from inside and outside to make it hardened. First two attempts ended with cracks but the third time's the charm. While I was looking for my clay I found a little stream of water in the hill close to the simmty. I built a water ditch to bring it to the smitty. Built a quite big mud walled reservoir, near my smitty. While doing all this stuff I started going home only late at night. My mother was worried and wanted to stop me but my father said “Young men should be ambitious about their work”. I worked around sixteen hour a day, I worked constantly, in every break to rest my body I meditated and tried to bend mana. Every day not only my work proceeds but also my skill in mana usage grows. When my reservoir was over I was working alone for a month. I built a water wheel after I built the reservoir. Making it take me another week. Then I built a wheel powered blower for the furnace , the most annoying part of using an old school furnace is constant meddling with the blower. Reservoir had two water release funnels, one at the top, one in the bottom. The one on the top is always open for preventing reservoirs from overflowing, one on the bottom is for pressured water power. Pressured water turns the water wheel that is connected to the blower and the blower constantly works. So using the furnace became quite easy, because I didn’t need to manually pump air in the furnace with the blower.

After completing the furnace I wanted another thing I wanted was a power hammer like the ones I saw on the blacksmithing shows. First I bringed a lot of iron from the small mine. Then I made a hardened steel block, which took me 3 attempts which cost me a week every time totaling three weeks. Then came moving that thing with water power, which and up in failure. My small water reservoir was too weak to move a big steel block, wheating around 50 kg. So I made a much bigger funnel and a separate much bigger water wheel to move my power tool. Normally my reservoir took 12 hours before emptying all the water it had. It took this long because while emptying water from the stream still flowed into it, but with a big funnel and big wheel emptying it took around 30 minutes, but I didn’t know how to close the big funnel. I didn’t need to empty all the water everytime I used the hammer, because the reservoir itself didn’t fill fast. I made a lever system to close the big funnel finally after a lot of work my power hammer was done. It worked and that was all I needed. Power hammer cost me one and a half months in total. Also I connected the sharpening stone wheel to the small water wheel so I can use it without manually spinning it. So around 3 months time I had the smitty I wanted. Now was the time to make the things I wanted with it.
