Chapter Thirty-Six: Ten Thousand Taels of Gold (Collect!) )
The so-called cannon sounded a golden tael, and now Dane has a deeper understanding of this sentence. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info He knew this before, but in the past, in the ghost mercenary group, he was not the real boss after all, he had to take care of the battle and the mission, but he didn't have to care about the of firewood, rice, oil and salt. But now, he is in charge of his own affairs, and he has to carry all these things together.
"Hearts of Dynasty" helped Dane considerably, but it was by no means free. Even, Dane mentally put a 'black shop' logo on the game's class training system!
The Sword Dancer can only be regarded as a member of the ranks of light infantry anyway, at most it can be regarded as assault infantry, but the price of training is almost as high as training a hoplite on the mainland.
Looking at Dane's unpredictable face, Lanstrow asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Two words popped out of Dane's teeth: "It's okay!" ”
He was really distressed.
However, when you calm down and think about it, it's actually worth it. The Sword Dancer troops had already shown their combat effectiveness in the battle just now, in addition to spending such a high training price. This is definitely much better than Dane's mercenaries. Lightly armed, their movement speed and flexibility on the battlefield are incomparable to those of mercenaries, and more importantly, the sword dancer after entering the battlefield is really like a sharp knife, which can stab the enemy into the heart of the battlefield fiercely.
Saying goodbye to Lanstrow, Dane finds Druid Falo again. This old man, who has gone through a long life cycle, is the only talent that Dane now has that is recognized by the system. He was still at an upper-middle level of internal affairs, so Dain appointed him his lieutenant, and in his absence, Faro was in charge of the construction of Orinadus.
Recently, Dane has not had much free time to go back, and has been vigilant against the Faceless tribe of Freshwater Lake in Ghost Knife Harbor. Although, he can remotely understand the current situation of Orinedu through the information displayed on the system of "Imperial Heart", but after all, it is not immersive, and there are still many things that will be incorrect. Therefore, the best place to start is from Faro.
“…… During this time, Orinedu has welcomed two groups of guided compatriots from the Divine Guide Tree Tower, and now, there are a total of thirty-one elves in Orinedu. I've been leading my compatriots to plant trees on the transformed soil around Orinedu, and now it's starting to bear fruit, and it may not be long before a small forest will appear around Orinedu. ”
"At the same time, we have also laid out an orchard, and when the moon well is built, it is estimated that the orchard will have a good harvest. At least, there is no problem in providing food to the elves, and there will be some surplus for the mercenaries in Ghost Knife Harbor. I have calculated that the construction of two moon wells through the moon wells and the accompanying orchards, and our future population growth, should be enough for us to be self-sufficient and not need to continue to obtain food from the outside. ”
Faro reports some news of Orinedu to Dane, and Dane smiles when he hears it. After a series of bad news, what Fallo said was finally a relief to his heart. It was a very good thing to have an older, experienced druid by his side to help. Originally, Dane thought that in order to complete food self-sufficiency, he would need at least three moon wells.
It was true that the spring of life produced by a moon well only met the needs of about a hundred people, but he forgot that the moon well had the effect of nourishing the surrounding plants in addition to its own spring water. The orchard centered on the Moon Well will solve the problem of food to a large extent. Even if you don't make an orchard and instead cultivate a field, the yield may be even higher.
Dain mentioned the matter to Faro, who shook his head and said, "No, no, no, normally, the yield of the orchard needs to take into account the time it takes for the trees to reach adulthood, and of course wheat is more appropriate on average. But, you know, I'm a druid, and we have moon wells, we have trees of life, and in this case, developing an orchard is the most valuable. Our annual food production per acre of orchard can reach one ton, while wheat is only about half a ton. ”
"Okay......" Dane could only compromise, in fact, he was very reluctant not on the issue of yield, but at the thought of having to eat fruit for a long time in the future, he felt a stomachache.
Faro could not understand the food preferences of Dane and the mercenaries that Dane represented, and in the druid's opinion, eating fruits and vegetables and grain was much healthier than eating meat.
Although there is a difference in taste, Dane is still very satisfied with Faro's work in Orinadus during this time. He promised Faro that when the war was over, he would return to Orinedu and build the Moon Well.
The materials brought from the mainland, after this half a month of consumption, are not much left. If we don't solve the problem of food supply as soon as possible, we have to hurry back to the mainland to buy enough food. This is really reluctant for Dane, who is strapped for money. Although he still has some money in his hand, he doesn't know how much money he will need to invest in the future development, so he can save a little bit.
In addition to savings, Dane's most important consideration is another problem: how to open source. Obviously, no matter how much you save, if you want to build a territory, you must constantly need capital investment. In such a situation, if you don't find a way to make money quickly, sooner or later there will be a time when the mountain will be empty. Although there was still a balance, Dane had to prepare for a rainy day.
He didn't want to slow down the pace of development, and even thought it was too slow. If you want to develop faster, you need more gold, this is an obvious problem. He is even thinking about whether to go back to his old business and do some businessless business?
Thinking about it, two hours passed like this. As he pondered, Delin, Sacco, and Golobo had already regrouped their ranks, waiting for him to call the shots and head east to wipe out the remnants of the Faceless Tribe.
Take your mind back and make money must be on the agenda, but at least don't think about it today. He stood up, looked around at his warriors, and said, "All ready?" Let's go! Let's destroy those damned monsters once and for all and avenge the dead brethren! ”
