Lin Ke looked at him, then looked at a soldier in the distance who was carrying stones and waving at him excitedly despite looking tired.
Obviously, these guys could tell at a glance that they probably hadn't had a rest all night.
Lin Ke looked at the boat full of pitiful stones. That small amount was just a piece of cake in front of the giant and the [Four-Section Sailboat].
But that was the limit of that little boat.
"Lord of Aswang, what are you doing?"
"Didn't I tell you that you only need to repair the temple within two weeks?"
Of course, the reason why Lin Ke asked this was because he saw the scene in the distance, on the shore of Philae Island.
There was already a lot of material piled up there.
Lin Ke knew very well what it meant for Aswan to transport materials from the edge of the city to Philae Island.
In Lin Ke's opinion, it was just like the pharaohs of the past commanding thousands or tens of thousands of people to work together.
Even ordinary people could not endure this kind of labor, unless they were slaves of the pharaoh, fanatical believers, or passionate patriots.
After hearing Lin Ke's words, the Lord of Aswang first knelt on the ground and saluted, then raised his head and spoke with tears in his eyes.
"Holy! Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh!"
"Within two weeks, we...I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to complete the task of repairing the temple!"
"So, we are working day and night, hoping to complete the project as soon as possible. Even if we can advance the project by a little bit, it will be great!"
"Your Majesty, Holy Pharaoh, can I, can I..."
When Lin Ke heard the other party's trembling voice, he immediately understood that the lord of Aswan thought that the temple renovation was all done by themselves.
But what Lin Ke wanted him to do was to gather craftsmen, make the design first, and prepare the materials.
The specific implementation will of course be completed by Lin Ke.
It will probably take a long time for this temple to be built in Aswan.
However, looking at the slightly tired eyes of the Lord of Aswan and the Holy Egyptian soldiers waving their arms and then bowing on the boat, Lin Ke felt quite satisfied.
At least they showed Lin Ke their attitude.
At this moment, Lin Ke's [Four-Section Sailboat] docked, and he slowly got off the boat, while the Lord of Aswang knelt on the ground, stretching his body out.
"Your humble servant respectfully welcomes His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh to Aswan!"
“Aswan is honored by your arrival!”
Lin Ke looked at the mayor of Aswang, then he slowly stretched out his hand and gently helped the other person up.
The mayor of Aswang was shocked.
"Holy! Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh!"
"How could your holy body touch the lowly body of this humble servant!"
"This will pollute your holy body! Ah! Holy Pharaoh!"
But Lin Ke just smiled and shook his head, and continued to help the lord of Aswang up.
"You have done very well, Lord of Aswang."
"However, I think you have some misunderstandings about my orders."
"But your attitude and actions are commendable. I will reward you greatly after the temple is built."
The mayor of Aswang looked puzzled. He blinked twice and looked at Lin Ke, but seemed not to understand what Lin Ke meant.
"Your Majesty... Holy Pharaoh?"
"Your humble servant, I am only following your orders, working day and night, hoping to complete the work as soon as possible..."
"You, what do you mean?"
Then, Lin Ke turned around and looked at his Holy Egyptian Fleet.
Or rather, the Nile Fleet.
"Everyone listen."
"Everyone, follow the plan."
"The original construction period was two weeks, but I want you to complete it within one to two weeks."
"While shortening the time, we must also ensure the quality of the repairs as much as possible."
"For every day you work early, I'll pay you an extra day."
When Lin Ke said this, the mayor of Aswang was immediately dumbfounded.
Originally, a two-week project seemed like a fantasy to him.
After hearing Lin Ke say "one to two weeks" and "one day in advance means one day's extra payment", he found it even more incredible.
That is simply impossible to do.
"Your Majesty, two weeks is probably already... very difficult. If you want to advance it, this... ah!"
At this moment, the lord of Aswan saw a huge figure suddenly walk down from a [four-section sailing ship].
For those who have lived on the Nile River for a long time, giants are creatures and a nation that many people cannot even imagine.
"ah?!"
"monster?!"
"On the ship, a giant appeared on the ship!"
"More than one, more than one!"
"What is that?!"
The Aswang warriors who witnessed this scene could not help but lean back, and even the boat almost overturned.
The Aswan warriors on the shore watched from afar as the giants stomped on the ground and the water of the Nile, making a rumbling sound.
However, after the giant Goliath took the lead in easily lifting the huge rock on the ground, the Aswang soldiers widened their eyes even more.
But the Lord of Aswang, who was beside Lin Ke, immediately looked as if he had suddenly realized something.
"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh! That! That is!"
“Could it be, ah!?”
Of course, although the lord of Aswang finally understood what was going on, the scene before him still shocked him.
Goliath and his other giants lifted the boulder in the blink of an eye.
As for the small boat still on the Nile River, which was loaded with a stone, Goliath dragged it directly to the riverbank with a "whoosh", which even scared the Aswan warriors on the boat so much that their faces turned pale.
Only after the [Four-Section Sailboat] docked did the giants officially start working.
The giants on both sides of the river were loading and unloading huge stones, while thousands of craftsmen who got off the boats began to work.
The craftsmen from Aswan simply informed the craftsmen from Cairo about the initial design plan for the temple renovation, and the craftsmen from Cairo immediately began to work on it.
The various materials that were originally piled up at the edge of Aswan City were reduced by more than half in the blink of an eye.
"Lord of Aswan, what you need to do next is to continue transporting the materials to the banks of the Nile for backup."
"Although we brought a lot of materials, you also understand that if there is any mistake, the materials will be discarded immediately."
The mayor of Aswang nodded vigorously and even forgot to respond to Lin Ke with words.
He quickly began to mobilize manpower again and began to cooperate with the craftsmen and giants of Holy Egypt.
After everything was in order, Lin Ke boarded the [Four-Section Sailboat] again.
Now, he is returning to Cairo.
