Chapter 63 – Double-layer insurance and wheels

  "Boss, this is the Iron Cave, right?"

  As soon as he finished speaking, Gobu Shi looked up and provocatively gred at Gobu Di.

  With a massive body, he bumped into Gobu Di, pushing him aside.

  Gobu Di was furious aaliated by smming his shoulder into Gobu Shi.

  Gobu Shi wasn't about to back dowher.

  The two of them started shoving each other bad forth beside the sand table.

  "What are you doing? Don't you dare break my sand table!"

  Seeing the two big guys g, Li Meng shouted sternly.

  This shout made Gobu Di and Gobu Shi jump in shock.

  They obediently separated and lowered their heads.

  "Gobu Di, I want you to take your bloodline desdants and half of the Goblin Soldiers to establish a ribe here."

  Li Meng pointed with a wooden stick at the northern forest along the Goblin River, about fifty kilometers from the tribe.

  Gobu Di nodded.

  Although he didn't uand why the boss wanted him to establish a ribe, Gobu Di didn't think much about it.

  He would do whatever the boss asked him to do.

  "Gobu Shi, the same goes for you. Lead your bloodline desdants and half of the Goblin Soldiers to the southern shore forest to establish a ribe."

  Gobu Shi rubbed his bald head.

  Although he didn't uand why the boss wanted him to establish a ribe, since Gobu Di had such a task, he should have ooo.

  "Boss, I take the female Lizardmen with me?"

  "No, all the female Lizardmen must stay iribe!"

  Li Meed Gobu Shi's request.

  The female Lizardmen had to be under his trol.

  This was beneficial for trolling the popution of the tribes.

  While a popution boom had its advantages, it could also lead to various problems.

  "Go prepare, a off immediately once your bloodline desdants return!"

  Adult goblins would learn how to hunt with the hunting party.

  Gobu Di and their bloodline desdants were scattered among various hunting parties.

  It would take at least a week to recall all the bloodline desdants.

  Afterward, Gobu Di and Gobu Shi each left the throne cave with their followers.

  Standing at the entrance, Li Meng watched the goblin followers depart.

  "Now we have a double insurance!"

  With ribes, there were new options.

  From now on, his tribe wouldn't face the risk of being pletely wiped out.

  Survival was the most important thing; everything else could be sacrificed.

  As long as they survived, everything else would follow.

  In the following days, Li Meng stayed diligently withiribe.

  Gobu Qiang's pig farmierprise, Gobu Da's carpentry workshop, and Gobu Ge's Iron Cave.

  These three pces all needed Li Meng's supervision.

  During the day, he ied the tribe, and at night, he worked with the female Lizardmen to produce little goblins.

  Li Meng was quite atteo the matter of reprodu.

  On the fifth day, Gobu Di and Gobu Shi each left the tribe with their followers.

  Gobu Tian had already returo the Gobli half a month ago.

  It was another new day, and the time had reached the afternoon.

  "Boss, it's finally dohis time there's absolutely no problem!"

  Outside the carpentry workshop, Gobu Da greeted the boss with a fawning smile and led him inside.

  The carpentry workshop was still the same as before.

  As soon as he entered, Li Meng saw a three-bow ballista at the entrance.

  It was clear that Gobu Da had deliberately pced it there.

  Having learned from st time, Li Meng wasn't quick to praise Gobu Da.

  He walked up and began iing the three-bow ballista.

  First, he grabbed the ballista and gave it a shake.

  Though there was some he modules were fairly solidly fitted together.

  Li Meng then touched the bow.

  Though the craftsmanship was rather crude, the quality of the bow was not low.

  He then turhe winch.

  A "creak, creak" sound echoed in the carpentry workshop.

  Although it was a bit loose, it didn't his use.

  Seeing the boss silent for a long time, Gobu Da started to panic.

  "Very good, not bad!"

  At that moment, Li Meng praised.

  To have achieved this was already quite impressive.

  The step was to improve the goblins' proficy.

  Then, have them optimize and enhahe craftsmanship of the three-bow ballista.

  The boss's praise made Gobu Da grin widely.

  "That's great!"

  Gobu Da cheered.

  The goblins in the carpentry workshop also shouted excitedly.

  They had endured quite a few shes from the boss these days.

  With the boss's boss satisfied, maybe the boss wouldn't hit them anymore.

  "But it's still not good enough. Only whehree-bow ballista doesn't make any noise when shaken will it truly be perfect!"

  The boss's words made the excited Gobu Da's face fall again.

  "Bring in a new batch of goblins, I want to teach you to make something new."

  Hearing that they were going to make something new, Gobu Da's heart trembled.

  His brain was about to explode; he couldn't fit anything new in there.

  He wao say this to the boss.

  But Gobu Da didn't dare.

  He could only anxiously drive the goblin followers out of the carpentry workshop.

  "Get out, get out, all of you, call the goblins from the other workshops over."

  There were five carpentry workshops iribe.

  However, the other workshops weren't as rge as this one.

  The boss's shout made the goblins in the workshop shrink their necks.

  They ran out as if esg.

  Although the boss wasn't holding a whip, the whip ot far from the boss in the er.

  They didn't want to be whipped by the boss again; it hurt a lot.

  Before long, anroup of gobliered the carpentry workshop.

  And so, Li Meng tio immerse himself in the development of the wagon wheel.

  Time ticked away, day by day.

  The daily life of goblins was monotonous and b.

  Either on the road hunting or on the way back to the tribe.

  It was another new day, and the time had reached the afternoon.

  "Boss, is this the hing we're going to make?"

  In the carpentry workshop, the first wagon wheel was successfully pleted.

  Looking at the rge wheel in front of the boss, Gobu Da was full of curiosity.

  He couldn't uand what use this round thing had.

  Li Meng propped up the wheel, examining it up and down.

  The wheel's height was nearly 1.2 meters.

  The outer rim of the wheel wasn't a single piece.

  Instead, it was assembled from multiple modules.

  These modules were then fixed together with iron nails.

  A yer of iron was ed around it to reduce fri.

  To prevent the wheel from def, there were load-bearing pilrs between the axle and the outer rim.

  The axle had a linear groove.

  Ihe groove were small steel balls.

  Some animal grease oured inside for lubrication.

  The steel balls and grease effectively reduced the fri between the bearing and the axle.

  To make this wheel, Li Meng spent nearly two months.

  During this time, he stantly explored and remade it.

  Finally, he settled on the current design of the finished product.

  Just the steel balls ihe axle took Li Meng over half a month in the Iron Cave.

  "Very good, it's perfect!"

  Li Meng was very satisfied with the finished wheel in front of him.

  Although it took a lot of time, it was worth it.

  With a sample, making the sed and third wheels would be retively easier.
