《FERMI PARADOX》Chapter 14 Jakarta City
Advertisement
After the giant water wheel was made, I continued the process of making water pipes.
These water pipes will later be used as water channels that are connected from artificial lakes to the residents' houses tanks.
"Mahesa, open the drainage," I ordered Mahesa.
"Noted, Your Majesty" Mahesa immediately opened the drainage, which previously prevented a lump of water from flowing into residents' water tanks.
"Now turn the waterwheel several times," I ordered.
"Understand Your Majesty," replied Mahesa swiftly.
Immediately the residents gathered and then turned the wheel together.
"Huuuuuu," Not long after, Mahesa and several residents of the village looked turning a giant propeller that stood firmly on an artificial lake together.
"Whung, whung, whung" The water wheel then spins rapidly.
After the wheel starts rotating, I immediately ordered Mahesa and the other residents to stop.
The spinning wheel will continue to rotate automatically at the 3rd spin.
"Whung"
"1"
"Whung"
"2"
"Whung"
"3"
The water wheel rotates automatically because the load of water that is filled and lifted in the plastic cups will automatically flow into the hose and then balance each other so that the wheel will continue to spin automatically.
"Horayyyyyy," residents shouted hysterically as the giant waterwheel in front of them then turned spinning automatically to suck up the water and proceed to the residential tanks.
"All of you, now, please check each other's houses, please inform other residents to open your house's tap," I ordered the 200 residents who were currently near the artificial lake.
"Noted Your Majesty," the residents then started running to their homes, shouting when they arrived near the village.
I also run as fast as lightning but stopped in an instant because I just realized Ashwina was behind me all this time.
"Ashwina, since when were you here?" I asked curiously.
Holy Molly! shit! Ashwina wears jeans with tight white shirts, WTH, this dude is already like a real artist, her appearance so damn hot!
I'm somewhat surprised by Ashwina's beauty.
Her new style makes me comfortable, this girl's face really changes when wearing my world-style clothes.
"Your Majesty .............." she looked down and smiled.
"Come with me," I said, smiling, then hugged Ashwina's waist and then continued my steps as fast as lightning to the village.

"Whoosh"
#The southern hamlet gate
Residents who previously worked to make an artificial lake in the southern area of the village were seen running and shouting into their neighborhoods.
Their actions certainly stirred up some residents in the village and wondered why they were screaming to turn on the water? Where's the water from? Are they crazy?
However, the residents who had just come from the artificial lake were immediately shocked when they set foot in the village.
Their hamlet, which was previously decrepit, suddenly turned into a very futuristic box building.
"This ... this ...... why did our village become like this?"
Some villagers muttered to themselves,
confusion with the current atmosphere of the village that is not the same as the previous environment.
"Whoosh"
When I arrived in the village, I immediately put Ashwina down.
I just realized that Ashwina's hair was a mess due to the wind that hit her as we shot fast like lightning to the village.
My speed when carrying Ashwina makes the green-eyed girl's hair disheveled.
"Are you OK, Ashwina?" I said.
"I'm fine, sire, thank you for the ride," Ashwina said, smiling.
The residents who still looked confused by the condition of their houses were still stunned.
I realized the silence of the residents because the shape of their houses was no longer the same as usual because I managed to change it a few hours ago.
"Um, sorry, I changed your house without permission, that's right, I changed it because, in my eyes, all of you should be able to get a decent place to live," I said amid the residents who are currently gathering.
"Your Majesty does not need to apologize like that, even if your majesty wants to destroy our house, then all the residents of the village certainly do not mind," said Amrita who is currently kneeling before me.
"Sigh, alright, Amrita, I want to explain something to all the citizens, so listen carefully," I ordered.
"Noted, Your Majesty," Amrita said.
"Tomorrow I will be with one of the ministers, in this case, Ashwina will leave the village to enter the aristocratic circles together with me."
"How would I enter their circle, of course, I will not reveal here because one of our prisoners from the aristocratic circles is still with us, I don't want to leak the information to him "

"Therefore, I am changing your residence to be more feasible, including installing water towers in each of your houses."
"You see that, a tall tower with an iron container on it?" I pointed towards the tank tower in a resident's house near me.
"These are water tanks that will be able to accommodate water coming from large lakes 2 km from the south."
"All you have to do is open the faucet in your bathroom."
I then give an example to them by opening the faucet that is currently installed near me.
"Krak, creak."
Not long after that, the water flowed from the tap.
"Woahhhhhh"
"Extraordinary!"
"Unbelievable!"
Said the residents who are currently amazed by the water that just came out.
WTF, fantastic, you say?.
"Ehm, this is not magic, but pure science, this water flows from the iron pipes that I planted in the ground before."
"The pipes deliver water that comes from a lake made by residents I once told to dig."
"The water can flow automatically because of the push from the waterwheel that is there" I pointed to the giant wheel currently standing firmly towards the south.
"Whoah"
The citizens were amazed.
"If you need water, then you just have to turn on the taps in your respective homes, then the water from the lake will flow automatically through water storage tanks," I said.
"At least while Ashwina and I are gone, you no longer worry about lacking food or drink," I continued.
Silent, suddenly silence, the current village is so calm, even I can hear the sound of the wind on my face.
"Drap, drap, drap."
Suddenly all the people of the village all prostrated before me.
At first, Amrita, who bowed down early, was then followed by the ministers and then the residents.
Seeing all the prostration, Ashwina joined - prostrate beside me.
"Sigh, stand up, never mind, you don't need to bow like that," I ordered them all.
"Sire, how should we repay your kindess in the future," Amrita said.
"You can just repay me with your loyalty. That would be enough," I said, smiling.
"Understood My Lord," said Amrita, whose eyes were filled with tears.
"From this moment on, I will turn this village into a city."
"The forerunner of a city which will later become the capital city."
"This capital city will later become the center of my new government, from this moment on, this village will become a city called Jakarta!"
"Woahhh"
"Jakarta city!!!!"
"Jakarta city!!!!"
"Long live the city of Jakarta !!!!"
The residents shouted, welcoming their new name from the village of Kalingga to the city of Jakarta.
After the announcement, I then invited my government officials to hold a large conference in the new building that I created in an instant.
I told the government officials that this building will be their work building in carrying out important meetings and work programs that I set for them.
One of my current work programs is to create secure food resources that lead to food self-sufficiency.
I asked the minister of agriculture to form agricultural and plantation lands.
I also asked the minister of mining and minerals to continue to explore the existence of mining goods around the nearest cave to support natural resources that can produce fuel.
The Minister of Defense and Security assigned to train all military conscripts, train to fight and survive, and so on.
Our meeting went smoothly for more than 3 hours until finally, we all disbanded and returned to our respective homes.
I went back to my own house, took a shower, and then changed clothes.
I started fiddling with my cellphone and was surprised by the "WIFI" signal, which turned out to be on my cell.
Not only that, the number of batteries in my cellphone seems full.
There is no indication of the slightest reduction, even though this cell phone has been on for more than a week, but the number of "bar" batteries in my cellphone does not show any slight decrease.

8 199Dhanurana
Out of an unnaturally quiet night, a bedraggled woman in noble finery requests access to the southern capital. Who she is has been lost to time for most, but her continued existence will throw everything further out of balance. Janurana had barely survived her royal house's destruction at the hands of foreign invaders, surviving day by day in the scattered pocket forests and arid shrub lands, constantly escaping the ghosts of her past. The south has barely survived their recent Pyrrhic victory against the north immediately followed by a coup. The north is bloodied but unbowed, on the brink of civil war, but still ready to take up arms against the southern invaders. The leaders of the south cannot afford another obstacle. And Janurana is just that. Yet her chance meeting with a woman expelled from the warrior class named Dhanur gives them both a chance to avenge the ones they loved, finish what they failed to do, and return to a normal life. *** Set in a fantasized bronze age India featuring LGBT female leads. Told in an omniscient pov with glances into multiple characters. This is my first book even if I've been working on it for a while but I hope you can all still find some enjoyment and take a break from everything happening in the world. Remember to work on your dreams. :)
