There are rarely calm, windless days on the Northern Wasteland.
The wind always whistles across the vast plains, weaving through jagged ridges, never ceasing.
As if it were the very breath of the wasteland itself.
Especially during the spring, autumn, and winter, the winds on the mountaintops are even fiercer.
Because of this, Luo De changed the original plan of a water mill to a windmill.
After all, streams freeze in winter, while the wind is stronger.
As for the space left over, it was just right for establishing an additional water-powered forging hammer.
The advantage of windmills is that they are stable and efficient, fifteen to twenty times more than ordinary manpower.
A slave can grind thirty to forty pounds of flour a day, while a windmill can easily reach six hundred pounds.
In places like the Northern Wasteland where the winds are stable, the output may even be higher, enough to meet the needs of the entire domain.
