Chapter 559: Chapter 558: Days Filled with Hope

"Mayor Wang, why do you have to dig it like this?"

"Mayor Wang, why do you have to bury the tree roots here?"

"Mayor Wang, why is the interior of the kiln designed this way?"

...

Although they were all experienced, a few farmers from the villages who made bricks and tiles gathered around Peter Brown and asked many questions.

Hearing everyone’s inquiries, Peter smiled and said, "Actually, our forefathers left us with many valuable experiences and knowledge, but our descendants did not inherit their best things. It is right for you to question this type of design, but you don’t know that after these changes, the effects produced are quite different."

A young man named Shane Taylor curiously asked, "Mayor Wang, what’s the difference?"

Peter had noticed this young man at first sight and was intrigued. Shane Taylor actually possessed top-grade spiritual roots; if he were guided on the path of cultivation, he would quickly develop on Earth.

Peter also had the idea of helping him out, but he wanted to observe his character further.

"Some adjustments were made during the installation, creating a feng shui pattern. The main function of this feng shui pattern is to significantly increase the firepower. Nowadays, people generally use electricity for refining and rarely use wood. Since our conditions are not sufficient, we can only use charcoal for refining. As a result, the firepower is not enough. We can only use this feng shui formation method to increase the firepower. You need to observe this kind of setting carefully. In the future, even if you build a kiln by yourselves, you will be able to build it with this kind of fire pattern."

So that’s how it is!

Everyone nodded their heads in vague understanding, full of respect for Peter.

Peter carefully examined it for a while and then made a few modifications.

Each time he made adjustments, Peter would introduce his intentions to the others.

"In ancient times, when refining ceramics, people actually used some feng shui formation settings. The more experienced the elders were, the more accurate the settings."

The villagers didn’t have much, but they had strong labor. Under Peter’s guidance, a large kiln was built.

When Gael Armstrong saw such a large kiln, he asked hesitantly, "Mayor Wang, can this really work?"

"Have they made the clay blocks?"

"Mayor Wang, it’s easy. Many blocks have already been made."

Peter went to check, and each block was as thick as a bucket.

"Remember, each time you make the pipe, you must add the wild grasses I told you."

Shane Taylor asked, "Why add those wild grasses?"

Peter said, "This is a secret recipe passed down through generations. After adding those wild grasses, the clay block actually changes. During the refining process with fire, they can produce some chemical reactions, which contribute to the hardness of the ceramic pipe."

Everyone listened and nodded, gaining a better understanding of Peter’s instructions to add the wild grasses.

Peter checked the clay blocks again before having them placed inside the kiln.

"Mayor Wang, as expected, the heat inside is much stronger than before!"

After the fire was ignited and refining began, a villager exclaimed excitedly.

Everyone looked again, their eyes full of respect for Peter, who was truly a knowledgeable man.

"Yes, once these pipes are fired and produced, we can start operations."

Although they didn’t have much confidence in the success of the project, everyone was enthusiastic about it under Peter’s leadership.

Peter wasn’t too worried about this matter and sat down to the side once it was finished.

"Mayor Wang, can this really work?" Gael Armstrong walked over and quietly asked.

With a slight smile, Peter said, "Is the cost of this project low?"

There’s not much cost; all materials are from our area. At most, some trees were cut down to make charcoal."

"Theodore Mitchell, the development of the village must keep up. Just farming alone can’t make the entire village prosperous. Have you considered other aspects?"

Theodore Mitchell sighed, "Other towns have local specialties, and some even have medicinal materials. There’s nothing here, so it’s hard to develop!"

Peter said, "Our village’s transportation is actually quite convenient; isn’t there a mountain road that leads into the county at the foot of the mountain?"

"Yes, it’s under construction. They say it should be open to traffic this year, which would really be more convenient."

Peter nodded slightly and said, "I have a suggestion. You can group together the ceramic makers, establish a ceramic pipe factory or something similar. This should have a market. When the time comes, operate the factory collectively through village shares. If it develops, it will become an economic growth point for your village."

"Mayor Wang, this technology is all yours. Isn’t this inappropriate?"

Peter waved his hand and said, "You don’t need to worry about me. Just handle this yourselves. I’ll be happy if the village can develop."

Gael Armstrong sighed, "Mayor Wang really cares about our lives!"

"Isn’t the road below about to open soon? I suggest you build some hotels and restaurants along the highway. Passing vehicles can stop there for a break. If you manage these establishments well, you’ll have substantial income."

Gael Armstrong’s eyes lit up. "Mayor Wang, as you have said, we can actually do these things!"

Peter smiled and said, "As I’ve said, as long as people are idle, gather them to level the land along the highway. Then turn it into a leisure street, managed by the village. Share the profits among everyone. Don’t you think the village can alleviate poverty this way?"

Excitedly, Gael Armstrong said, "We can also plant cash crops. We can set up stalls to sell them when the time comes, generating more income!"

Seeing that Gael Armstrong had a plan, Peter was happy, "That’s good! As long as everyone is thinking, there’s definitely a way."

"But I heard that it’s not allowed to do these things on the side of the highway?"

"No problem. There are rest areas beside the highway. As long as the county coordinates and turns this place into a temporary rest area, it won’t be difficult. I’ll handle this matter, and you just need to build the place."

"But construction also requires money!"

Peter smiled and said, "The refining methods I taught you are completely capable of producing the ceramic materials needed for decoration. At the very least, we can produce some floor tiles. The township and county will definitely need these items—I’ll help you contact them. If you can secure some orders, you’ll have the funds."

Gael Armstrong said, "Only Mayor Wang can do
