Mermaid Bay.

Barr stood by the sea, and Donald was watching the surrounding sea.

Bart stood quietly behind Baal, his broad body blocking out a large amount of sunlight and bringing a hint of shade to Baal, followed by a few goblin laborers and a team of village guards.

After the destruction of the Fish-Man Water Village, the Fish-People near the bay have begun to escape on a large scale, and this body of water will no longer be bothered by the Fish-People for a long time, and it is time to start building a dock.

Barr's current location is a beach on the north side of Mermaid Bay, and the blue sea ripples in the sea breeze as far as the eye can see.

It's a short walk from the village.

Not far behind the beach is a cliff that has begun to be somewhat weathered by the sea and the wind over the years, and is covered with caves, large and small.

"My lord, with all due respect, although the location here is good, it is not the best place to build a dock." Donald said with some concern, "Although the environment here is not bad, and it is close to the village, the sea currents in the sea ahead are not stable, and there is a lot of silt on the seabed. It's good to build small ships, but if you want to build large ships, you will have to clean up and renovate the sea area in front of you, which will take a lot of time and a lot of work. ”

"Old Tang, I understand what you said, but I have a reason why I have to choose here, and you will naturally understand it in a few days." Barr smiled wryly.

He didn't know that building the dockyard here would require a lot of manpower and material resources to be renovated in the later stage, but compared to what he obtained, this little effort was nothing.

"Old Don" is Barr's new name for Donald, although Donald was a little unaccustomed to it at first, but after calling too much, he reluctantly accepted it.

Donald nodded.

"Okay, since the adults have decided to choose here, my subordinates will bring people to start construction."

Donald knew in his heart that although his own adults sometimes had some out-of-the-box thinking, they were very cautious in handling important matters, and they were able to listen to everyone's opinions, plan and then act.

"Let's go!"

With Barr finished, Donald ordered the goblin laborers to begin work.

The wood and stone needed for the construction had already been delivered by the goblin laborers. Despite the proximity to the village and the fact that the fish-people in the area were hard to find, Barr had assembled a team of village guards to garrison the area.

Be prepared.

There are several other places where you can build a dock, and there are many better ones than here, but Baal didn't hesitate to choose this place, for the simple reason that the crystal mines are located in the depths of these caves!

Crystals are an important strategic resource, and if they are mined rashly, they will bring ruin to the village if they leak the news.

When the time comes, not only the human kingdom in the south will not let him go, but even the orc empire will do everything possible to snatch the crystal mine. This is just like the nuclear weapons in the previous life, although those big countries have a lot of nuclear weapons, they will never allow other small countries to get even a nuclear warhead, let alone ordinary people, they may not even have the qualifications to take a look.

If you want to mine, you naturally have to hide it from the world, so Barr chose this time: to repair the plank road in the open, to display the warehouse in the dark, and to use the dock to hide people's eyes and ears. The dockyard was large enough to cover the caverns in the rock face, and the fact that the dock was built by the sea was a matter of course would not arouse suspicion.

Baal brought all the people he had summoned this time. No matter how loyal a person is, he will have a weakness, and a person with a weakness can be attacked, and only the summoned characters will never betray him.

The dock was built on the side of the cliff, and thanks to the efforts of the goblin laborers, the building was gradually taking shape, and the cavern on the cliff wall was soon hidden by the huge dock.

......

The first-tier dock can only support the construction of a few small fishing boats, but it is enough for Hailan Village, which does not need to fight at sea and does not have the conditions to trade at sea.

Fishing can enrich the food types in the village, increase some food reserves, and improve the satisfaction of the villagers, which is still very good.

"Let's go back first."

Leaving Donald and the villagers to build a dock here, Barr takes Bart back to the village.

Village.

"Your Excellency, you're back.

A group of guards in the village was patrolling, and when they saw Barr walk in, they quickly stopped to say hello. Now with Bart behind him, it has become very difficult for Barr to keep a low profile, such a tall and large man, he walks and moves a lot, and he can be noticed from a few hundred meters away.

"Good work."

Barr patted the lead guard on the shoulder.

The guard's face was agitated, he straightened up, saluted, turned and walked forward with the group.

After joining a lot of new people, the village is now a busy scene.

To the southeast of the village is the planned business district of Barr.

The primary market and the primary grocery store have been built, the primary clothing store next to it is being built, some goblin laborers and new villagers are busy, and it should be completed this afternoon, except for the blacksmith shop, all the other buildings needed to upgrade the village have been completed.

On the northeast side is a residential area, and with the efforts of the villagers, the houses are rapidly taking shape.

Now the village is still relatively abundant in wood and stone, there is no need to worry about the shortage of resources in a short time, the number of people in the village has increased, and the consumption of food has also increased, but after the construction of the dock is completed, fishing boats can be built, and some villagers can be organized to go to sea to fish, and the farmland will be productive in a few months.

About 70 acres of farmland had been cultivated in the east of the village, and Barr alone found someone to spend a small plot of land and planted the seeds of the blazing sweet potato, which grew quickly, and should be harvested in a few days, and soon a large area could be planted. Not far east of the village is the Sumo River, which flows from the northeast to the southwest coast, and the flow of water is very large, and Barr has instructed John to organize the villagers to dig a canal to divert the water from the Sumo River to irrigate the farmland.

Although John is a bit slippery, he is still very dedicated to what Barr commands, and some small things in the village Bar are left to Han to deal with.

In the world of Rand, these buildings that are directly constructed from the origin of the world are very important.

If the sub-profession is equivalent to the technicians of the previous life, then the buildings themselves are equivalent to large production plants. The power of one person is always limited, and these factories can play a huge role in the production of various items in large quantities after the technical support provided by the relevant technicians, and the level of the building determines the production volume and production capacity of this factory.

Take the junior blacksmith shop, for example, after the blacksmith moves in, provide the necessary materials and blueprints, and it can automatically produce equipment and weapons on a large scale. However, due to the limitation of its size, it can only produce equipment below level 20 on a large scale, and the daily output can only reach twenty sets.

Of course, if you have a grandmaster blacksmith in your blacksmith shop, you can also directly ask him to craft high-level equipment, but it will take a long time to build, and for a territory, this ability to manufacture equipment in large quantities is more important than a simple blacksmith.

However, the collection point of various resources is an exception, as long as your collectors can be skilled and the number of people is large enough, then the collection speed will naturally be fast, of course, the improvement of the mining technology of the territory will also speed up this process.

"Bart, you go and call John to come to the council chamber to see me." Barr said, turning his head.

Bart nodded and turned to leave.

As a semi-elemental being, Bart is not very good at communicating with people, elemental life is almost eternal, and like most elemental life, he has become accustomed to loneliness in his long life

Back in the council chamber, Barr made himself a pot of tea.

The tea in this world is similar to what Barr had drunk in his previous life, and it is also made from the leaves of a plant, but in comparison, it is more sweet and less bitter, and after drinking it a few times, Barr gets used to it.
