Chapter 225: One day of training 3/3
When Einar walked away, along with his wives and Sven, Seren could only scratch her cheek. As she knew, she had a lot of work to do.
That is why, following Einar’s advice, she came out of the trench and started shouting “All the Gamma team require it in front of me because I will have to carry out some orders.”
The Gamma team who was resting got up from where they were resting and in just two minutes they were lined up in front of Seren.
‘Interesting turnaround time. Perhaps I should ask Einar about his way of training for the slaves under our command in the craftsmen’s guild.’
Seeing all the slaves standing, she pointed to one of them “Who is the leader of the group or who can coordinate them.”
The slave pointed out to Edric a 20-year-old with blond hair and blue eyes, who had a somewhat scrawny body.
Noticing the look and after hearing the words of his partner, Edric took a step forward and gave a military salute.
“I am Lieutenant Edric, leader of the Gamma team. I and my sergeant are in charge of enforcing the orders.
Do you have an order, madam? “
Seren nodded “I want three of you to go to the tribe and inform Gerd that I need him in this place with delicate tools so that I can take out an object of value.
If he asks what object tells him it is bones, once you’ve been informed, I want you to help him carry the tool.
I also want one of you to go with Jesper, as I need some animal skins to make a tent in this place.
Because I don’t want the sun to burn the bones or some rain to damage the bones.
The rest of you I want you to divide into two groups. One should place wooden boards on the ground over the trench to prevent the water from creating mud.
The other team will have to build a wooden base to place the skins that will form the tent. “
Edric quickly and began to give orders, to begin sending to the village all his companions who knew where the artisans were.
Then he left his sergeant in charge of placing the wooden planks in the trench, while he and two other companions were in charge of building the base of the tent.
Seren, noting that the teams had already been divided and everyone was heading to do their work, pointed to Edric to accompany him.
“I will show you where you should place the wooden pillars to make the framework.”
When she finished speaking, Seren took out of her bag a limestone which she would use to make some marks on the ground.
After taking a few steps, she reached the area where the fossil was and, using her hands, she began to imagine where the tent would be placed.
Edric, who did not understand what she was doing, only remained silent because he did not want to disturb Seren. Also, to avoid problems, he signaled to his companions not to make noise.
‘If Einar’s teachings are correct, a structure with 5 points of support and an arch in the front should be enough to support a tent.
Even if they fill up with water… ‘
Seren bit her lip as she continued doing her calculations in her notebook ‘To think that I used to do this using only my experience, now I have to use math to solve these problems.
I suppose it’s a blessing disguised as a curse, but someone has to do it. ‘
When Seren had just used her hands, she took out her notebook and a metal-tipped wooden pen as she wanted to do a little operation to calculate how thick the wood should be that the tent would support.
After a few minutes, he finished and sighed, so she closed her notebook and started walking towards a corner where she marked an x with the limestone.
Then she walked to another corner and repeated the same thing. When she finished, she continued repeating the same process until she was finished.
So she pointed to Edric “I want you to start drilling some holes where I made the marks with limestone.
I want the holes with a depth of half a meter. If you have doubts about how much is half a meter use your shovel as a reference.
They are built in a meter size, so the hole should be able to cover half of the shovel.
While you are working on it, I will go to the carpentry workshop that is in this place, to inform about the size and shape of the boards that I need.
Edric, it is your responsibility to watch over your companions, if they damage the bones it will not be something pleasant for anyone. “
After a while and after eating with his family, Einar went to the camp to supervise the slaves, as it was time for them to take a break to eat.
Upon arrival, he was surprised to see that some obstacles were already ready, as well as the frame of the tent that would cover the fossil.
With immense joy, he took out his whistle and made a noise to indicate that they all needed to stand in front of him.
All the rather tired slaves began to form in lines until they were completely ordered.
“I know they are tired and dirty, but this is just getting started, because the Gamma team is working with Seren.
They should stay in this place and follow their orders. Beta team is in charge of making the food, Alpha team should wash everyone’s clothes.
The others can take a bath in the hot springs of the camp. I want to see their bodies clean and without dirt.
When you get out of the bathroom, the Alpha team should have for you a simple change of clothes. Beta team when you finish making the food you have the responsibility of bringing food to the Gamma team.
All of you have one hour to do all of this. When the rest of the teams come out of bathing, you will take turns entering the bathroom.
The only ones who will only be able to bathe until the night will be the Gamma team. Now move forward and carry out the orders. “
Einar, seeing that everyone greeted him with a military salute, began to walk towards the kitchen, as he would begin with the German classes.
