章 119: Problems with the design

21st April 1574

Despite how we arrived in the place rather late, with only about two or three hours before the sun would set beyond the horizon, rather than looking for the nearby villages where this huge crowd of people could spend the incoming night, I instantly pushed them to work.

Obviously, before the construction of the steam horse could start, I still had to take care of their basic needs, but that was something I thought about in advance. Following the example of the later ages, instead of making small tents capable of housing up to two or maybe three people, I ordered one group of people to bring the huge pieces of cloth along with the sharpened, wooden poles.

As soon as the materials arrived on the site set just beside the messy sheds containing the hole leading towards the depths of the mine, craftsmen received a rare responsibility to order the rest of the people around, erecting four massive tents almost in an instant.
