"Upgraded! Our Xiaoyao Village has been upgraded to a small town! Deng Yi said in surprise. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"What? Are you kidding? Xia Yu couldn't believe it, he was still frowning about this matter just now, how could it be upgraded to a small town in an instant, fooling people, right?

"Really? Is it really upgraded? When the true joy fell from the sky, Jiang Ming was so excited that he trembled a little when he spoke, and the goal he had been thinking about day and night finally got his wish!

"Great! Haha, I was still worried about this just now. I didn't expect it to be upgraded in a blink of an eye! Han Cong laughed heartily, although he had been naturalized in Xiaoyao Village for the shortest time, he had no affection for this village. Now that Xiaoyao Village has made breakthrough progress, it is natural to be overjoyed.

"Haha! Let's go, go back to the Lord's Palace! Deng Yi casually threw away the fishing rod in his hand, jumped up, jumped back to the river bank, and ran towards the lord's mansion.

Han Cong, Xia Yu, and Jiang Ming also got up and followed, and Xia Yu didn't even bother with the big fat fish he had finally caught, and threw them into the river casually.

In the council hall of the Lord's Palace, the four of them were already seated separately.

"Lord, I don't know what conditions need to be met to upgrade the territory to a town?" Jiang Ming was the first to ask, he really wanted to know what conditions had hindered Xiaoyao Village for several months. Not only him, but Han Cong and Xia Yu were also curious about it.

"This... I haven't figured it out yet! Being asked like this, Deng Yi was instantly dumbfounded. The territory was successfully upgraded for some reason, and he really didn't know the reason. I was happy to visit just now, and I didn't pay attention to this.

"......" The three of them were speechless when they sat down, and they all looked at their lord with strange eyes. This lord is really ......

"Wait, I'll take a closer look!" Deng Yi said with some embarrassment, and took out the lord's order again to check it carefully. Carefully compare the changes in each attribute.

Half an hour later.

"Lord, have you figured it out?" Xia Yu couldn't help but ask.

"Wait, don't you see I'm taking a closer look!" Deng Yi was still immersed in the search and dealt with it casually.

Deng Yi never let go of every possible change, and one by one was screened and eliminated. In the end, all possibilities were ruled out, but nothing was found. If it is said that the accumulation of resources to a certain amount, or the reclamation of enough farmland, or the over-construction of enough houses are hidden conditions for the upgrading of the territory, it is really nonsense, and I will not believe it if I die.

"I've carefully checked the attribute status of the territory, and I haven't found any valuable clues." Deng Yi said helplessly.

"Indeed, I checked it and found nothing suspicious." Jiang Ming also echoed casually, he was also burying his head in looking for clues just now, but he also found nothing.

"Could it be that the conditions for the upgrade of the province are not the province itself?" Han Cong said.

"Han Cong has a point." Xia Yu agreed.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, Deng Yi seemed to think of something, and opened his attribute panel to check it. Due to the solidification of attributes, the virtual and real are synchronized, and the external factors have no meaning to him, so Deng Yi almost never checks his attribute panel, and he can't remember how long ago the last time he checked it.

Character attributes:

"Ah......" The miserable screams and beating his chest were not enough to express Deng Yi's mood at this time.

"Stupid, stupid, I'm just stupid!" Deng Yi kept slapping his head, regretting his stupidity.

After looking at his attribute panel, Deng Yi instantly understood the reason. Ordinary villages need to obtain official positions to upgrade small towns, and Xiaoyao Village is an independent territory, so naturally no official positions are required, but this does not mean that the upgrade of independent territories has nothing to do with the lord, and the reputation of the lord is a necessary condition for the upgrade of independent territories.

And how did Deng Yi's fame upgrade from obscurity to emergence? Looking at what he's been doing over the past few months, there's only one possibility.

Two months ago, Deng Yi single-handedly exterminated a group of more than 400 pirates, which made his reputation soar, and he turned from obscurity to his first edge.

In other words, Xiaoyao Village had already met the conditions for upgrading the town two months ago, but Deng Yi didn't find out! Two months! Because of a moment of negligence, two months of time were wasted. No wonder Deng Yi beat his chest so much and regretted it.

"Lord!" Seeing the village elder looking so remorseful, the three of them sat down and shouted with concern.

"Whew!" Deng Yi took a deep breath, calmed the depression in his heart, and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine, just a little depressed!" ”

"But I've figured out the hidden upgrade conditions for the territory." Deng Yi paused for a moment and then said, "Han Cong is right, this condition is closely related to the lord. It is necessary for the lord to reach a certain height of fame. ”

"Oh! I see. The three of them nodded at the same time and sighed.

"How famous is the lord now?" Jiang Ming asked.

"Showing the edge."

"Was it because you killed the pirates two months ago?" Han Cong asked.

"Exactly." Deng Yi said bitterly.

"Isn't that ......" Xia Yu said subconsciously, but he subconsciously paused halfway through speaking, and now he finally understood why the lord was remorseful just now.

Jiang Ming and Han Cong glanced at each other, and they both tacitly understood what their father-in-law's mood was just now.

"Hmm, let's discuss the next development of Xiaoyao Town." Han Cong diverted the topic and said.

"Does Jiang Ming have any plans?" Deng Yi hurriedly descended the steps given by Han Cong, and it was inevitable that people would panic if he continued to dwell on the matter of territorial upgrades.

"My lord, first of all, there is the question of cultivating the fields. After the village is upgraded to a small town, half of the farmland that was originally used to grow food will be divided into crops such as vegetables and fruits. This directly led to the reduction of grain production by half, and at the same time, the production of vegetables and fruits was too high, and the territory could not be consumed. Therefore, his subordinates thought that the planting area of vegetables and fruits should be reduced, because the feng shui pattern arranged by Han Cong's brother increased the yield by 50%, and only two-thirds of the current one was enough. Jiang Ming said.

Deng Yi is also very clear about this, and there are many related posts on the official forum, which explain the relevant issues very clearly. This change can be said to have made all territories suffer. Although vegetables and fruits can also replace part of the grain, this is not food after all, it can only replace 20% of the grain consumption. However, it has to occupy nearly half of the territory's fields, which undoubtedly brings huge pressure on the territory's grain production and greatly delays the progress of the territory's development.

Moreover, vegetables and fruits must be planted in sufficient quantities, otherwise it will greatly affect the hearts of the people in the territory. The people's heart is a very important hidden attribute, and some territories who do not believe in evil give up planting vegetables and fruits, and as a result, the people's hearts are greatly disappointed. First of all, the people are passive and slacking off in their work, and the morale of the soldiers is low. Then it developed to lead the people to strike and sleep in the people's houses, and the soldiers drank and gambled in the barracks all day long, neither practicing nor being on guard. In the end, even the people and soldiers gathered together to make trouble, so that the chickens and dogs jumped in the territory, and it was impossible to produce and develop at all, and at the same time, many people left the people. It can be seen that the importance of the people's hearts and vegetables and fruits have a great impact on the people's hearts.

It's a pity that there are so few independent territories like Xiaoyao Town, which are simply rare. As a result, there is no strategy for the development of independent territories on the forum. Otherwise, Deng Yi would not have been unable to find a way to upgrade.

"Well, vegetables and fruits are not conducive to storage, and it is not advisable to plant too much, so you can arrange this matter to ensure the needs of all the townspeople." Deng Yi said to Jiang Ming.

"Yes, the subordinates will arrange it properly." Jiang Ming commanded.

"In the next two days, the architect should be naturalized, and then you will arrange for 10 villagers with mediocre qualifications to be apprenticed under him. In the future, when there are qualified displaced people to naturalize and then make distribution, it is necessary to ensure that there are enough architects for the territory to develop rapidly. Deng Yi commanded.

When a village is upgraded to a town, the original level will be canceled. Various buildings are upgraded to become low-level buildings, and if they are upgraded to medium-level buildings, they are medium-level buildings. All building upgrades and construction must be designed by an architect before construction can be carried out under the guidance of an architect. Moreover, an architect can only direct one construction target at the same time.

After becoming a small town, the construction cost of each building increased tenfold. Take, for example, a private house. The first design takes 1 day, and the construction period is 15 days, during which a minimum of 5 workers are required. The wages of architects and workers alone require nearly 7 taels of silver, about 5 taels of various raw materials, and about 3 taels if the territory needs to collect land use fees, and a total of nearly 15 taels is needed to barely be enough. After the renovation, the house was transformed into a private house, a stone and wood structure, from a single wooden house to a fully equipped suite, and the area of the house has also increased a lot.

This is only the simplest private house, and if it is other such as private school, dockyard, lord's house, etc., the cost is even more amazing. Especially in the barracks, the capacity of the low-level barracks is 1,000 soldiers plus 11 generals. Each barracks can accommodate four non-commissioned officers, and each general has one barracks for himself, plus the hall of the Chinese army, 262 barracks are required. Finally, with the addition of a large canteen and other training facilities, you can imagine what a huge project this will be.

"Yes, my lord." Jiang Ming replied and asked: "If there are townspeople who need to renovate their houses, how to deal with them?" ”

It's a question worth pondering. The renovation of the houses by the townspeople will inevitably occupy materials and human resources, thus affecting other important construction in the territory. If it is not allowed, it will return to the issue of popular will, which will definitely cause dissatisfaction among the people.
