Carriage making (1)

"They say that it was the king who came up with all these designs. I don't believe it, the king is not a blacksmith, he has to have stolen this knowledge from somewhere or he might be imprisoning the brains behind these designs in the dungeon in his palace." A muffled sound could be heard from a group of jabbering blacksmiths who had long dreadlocks.

These blacksmiths seemed to be out of place because they came from Litkesh kingdom and they had been sent here to investigate where Virtya got the design of such excellent stuffs like the plough. The Litkesh kingdom had also heard that the king of Azuhai was working on another project called "the wheel and the carriages" these blacksmithing spies were here to learn the true design of the wheel and the carriages so that they could export the information to their kingdoms so that their kingdom could not be left behind by the Azuhai kingdom in terms of development, after all, making a true carriage was not easy as it needed experience and training from the experts of the Northern continent, that was why there was almost no one who could come up with a design for a carriage in the Southern continent.

"I don't believe it! We have to investigate and find out where he found the knowledge from." A furious roar could be heard from one of the blacksmiths with dreadlocks before his friends silenced him using their hands. It seemed that one of them was so furious in that he could not help but shout out loud like a fool which angered his fellows but they didn't punish him because they were also agitated. Why was the technology that the king of Azuhai kingdom found not theirs? They wanted so much to know who was the brains that Virtya was keeping to himself.

They were all indignant. Some other blacksmiths around them were pissed off by their murmur and they could not help but reprimanded them which made them even more agitated.

They will kill someone!

They could only grit their teeth because they had not finished their mission or else, a bloodbath would have prevailed.

"Silence everyone! We have come here to create the wheel and the carriages. His Majesty has come up with different designs of the carriages, what you guys will need to do is to fabricate what is depicted on those papers and if there is a question, you can ask the experienced blacksmiths in your midst who had already gone through the training with his Majesty. As for the parts of the wagon, the carpenter's association will take the role of creating them." Tanya finished by saying. Her face was filed with prejudice as she looked down on all the blacksmiths and the carpenters that had showed up. She knew that in this group, there had to be some spies planted by the enemy but Virtya had told her to keep a blind eye and let the spies be, she didn't knew what was going in the mind of king Virtya these days.

With the order from Tanya, several drawings drawn on papyrus were handed out to each blacksmith present and as qualified blacksmiths, they quickly understood everything behind the wheel as it was a simple tool. 

One should know that Virtya had chose to make some fully ironed carriages first while the rest will only have the iron wheels with the rest of the frame being made of wood, this was why the carpenter's association was also invited.

This!

The people who got the designs could not help but scream in agitation. The designs were otherworldly and never seen before. They even started to begin thinking that even in the northern kingdom, something like this could not he found. It was simply heavenly.

The spies were silent as they took in what was depicted on the papyrus. The people who didn't manage to get their hands on any of the designs, assembled around those who were given the designs and they were all agitated and restless.

"Man, what do you think about this?" Maks Popov nurged his friend.
