Chapter 149: Back to the Tribe
In the afternoon of the next day, the team finally arrived at the tribe, and the faster people stood on the cliff, looking at the thriving human camp at their feet, and they were all a little stunned for a moment. It was a long time before they began to cheer, their expressions excited, their eyes shining.
Liu Zhi on the side saw this scene, and looked at the tribe he had created with his own hands, and couldn't help but feel a sense of accomplishment in his heart.
Compared to a month ago, the tribe has changed dramatically. The woodland on the south side of the lake has been cut down, and the two settlements are connected together, and as far as the eye can see, thousands of domed earthen houses are divided into five columns, extending from one side of the cliff to the other cliff, and the distribution is extremely regular.
In the large residential area, there are several buildings, the short ones have four floors, and the high ones are seven or eight floors. These are the office spaces of various departments, as well as public facilities such as health centers, schools, and canteens. For the time being, these have not been built in the small people's gathering area, but two security watchtowers have been put in.
The barracks of the martial arts training camp and the guard battalion are connected in one place, in the middle of the large people's gathering area on the left, close to the mountain palace, next to the wide training ground, covering an area of more than 20 acres, almost equivalent to the size of two football fields, in addition to allowing the soldiers to train, the militia training is also carried out here. To the right is a newly built market, equipped with more than a dozen shops, including grain stores, animal meat stores, tool stores, medicine stores, grocery stores, clothing stores, etc., all of which belong to the tribe.
More than a dozen caves have been excavated on the cliff wall in front of the settlement, most of which are used as storehouses, and a few are workshops for processing food.
Under the cliff on the right side of the tribe, there are workshops and factories, and several warehouses have also been dug out of the mountain wall to store all kinds of materials needed for production.
The farmland and farm are located in the corner below the tribe and cover hundreds of acres. There are all kinds of crops in the farmland, including the Liufang Forest, and the elixir garden is located in the innermost part, surrounded by a tall earthen wall, and there are soldiers patrolling the four corners of the earthen wall.
There are seven or eight groups of animals domesticated on the farm, a total of hundreds, most of them herbivores, all of which are very large, and are the main source of ordinary meat. The grass is cultivated and boosted by special personnel, so there is no need to worry about it being eaten and gone, and it is pure natural and pollution-free, ensuring a virtuous cycle of domestication.
The school is nearly three kilometers away from the people's gathering area, with a lake on the side, covering an area of about 30 acres, and two tall towers stand on the left and right, always alerting to nearby movements. At this moment, more than a dozen wooden factory sheds have been erected in the school yard, which should be a temporary place for new members.
On the cliffs surrounding the tribe, there are six watchtowers responsible for guarding, and two soldiers are stationed on each tower.
The breeze blew, raising Liu Zhi's shoulder-length hair, he looked at the busy figures in the tribe, his mood was slightly agitated, but in half a year, this small camp showed vitality, people came here from the darkness, harvested hope, looked forward to the future, life was calm and fulfilling. Looking at everything in front of him, he felt that no matter how big the effort was, it was worth it.
Descending the hill, Zhou Baiqi led a group of officials to greet him, Liu Zhi handed over the population to Zhu Cheng, and the various materials he brought back were also properly distributed.
The soldiers of the third battalion of the dragon battalion did not sit idle because of this, and took on the maintenance of tribal order.
With these arrangements in place, Liu Zhi called officials above the deputy bureau chief level to hold a meeting in the palace in the mountains.
"Chief, the tribe now has a total of 8,672 people, plus the 2,743 people you brought back this time, a total of 11,415 people. Among the original population, there are a total of 6,527 awakened people, including 1,464 special awakened people, 698 combat people, and 766 talent people. In addition, there are 53 people who are suspected of being special awakened, and their abilities are still being tested for the time being, and the results will have to wait until at least three days later. ”
Zhou Baiqi first made a report on the household registration work.
The specific data of the tribe was reported by someone from the military intelligence department when he was on the way, so Liu Zhi was not surprised at all, and looked around at everyone: "Now that the population has exceeded 10,000, the development policy of the tribe should also be adjusted in a timely manner, first of all, it is naturally the problem of residence." Xu Jun, how many special awakeners of the 'solid soil' skill does the Construction Bureau have now? ”
He looked at Xu Jun, director of the Construction Bureau, on his left.
"Including Lin Bei, there are four of them." Xu Jun replied.
"Four ......" Liu Zhi was obviously not satisfied with this number, the finger on the table lightly tapped the table, and after pondering for a while, he turned to Zhu Cheng beside Xu Jun and said: "In this way, your Construction Bureau and the Personnel Awakening Bureau will sum up to see how much manpower is needed to build a house for 20,000 people in the shortest possible time." There is no need to build a igloo, now that the land area is tight, the agricultural area and the industrial area need to be expanded, the cement can be fired in large quantities, or the combination of various conditions, to build some more practical residential buildings. ”
"Okay, my subordinates remember." Xu Jun listened and took notes.
Liu Zhi's voice continued to sound: "If there are enough manpower, remember to take into account the construction of production facilities and office space while building a house, but as soon as the house is built, there will be a large number of people who have nothing to do." ”
Xu Jun wrote them down in the small notebook one by one, and said after he was done: "Then the subordinates will go back and study with Director Zhu, and after the specific plan is decided, I will hand it over to you for review." ”
"yes, okay." Liu Zhi nodded, his gaze moved up, and fell on Jing Ning: "Jing Ning, now that the population is growing exponentially, can food production keep up?" ”
Compared with when she first met, Jing Ning had become much more eye-catching, her figure was plump by two points, her skin had turned from black to white, and her temperament was gentle and tranquil, she nodded lightly and said: "Yes, leader, there are already five 'plant-fueled' special awakened people in the bureau, plus the previous stockpile, there will not be a shortage of supplies for at least two months." In addition, I have already seen the melons, fruits and seeds you brought back, and if the yield is really that high, just by cultivating enough farmland, the number of people who can be supported can be increased to about 20,000. ”
"That's good, but even if the production increases, we can't give birth to slackness, we have a limited understanding of the world, and no one knows how bad the winter will be, so in terms of food reserves, we must be fully prepared." Liu Zhi said again.
"Well, my subordinates understand." Jing Ning's jaw should be lowered.
After that, Liu Zhi inquired about some other information, and learned that the production tools of the Materials Bureau were quite insufficient, and they were stepping up their construction. Although the research progress of the Civil Technology Bureau and the Scientific Research Bureau is fast, the results obtained are average. Like the high-power generator mentioned last time, more than two months have passed, but it is still not completed, mainly stuck in the adjustment and correction of the accuracy of the components, because of the lack of industrial machine tools, can only rely on the newly determined ruler to slowly correct, the two special awakened people who can decompose the metal can also help, but the repair is too low, and the high-power engine needs too many components, and the help is really limited.
Once the generator is made, it can provide power for high-precision industrial machine tools, and then all kinds of machinery and equipment will naturally come into being, and the productivity of the tribe will be multiplied.
