Chapter 144. The sheriff's residence in ruins

The leveling of the ruins suddenly accelerated, and the water thief captives with whip marks on their faces and bodies, all with humiliating marks on their faces, swept around the Barbary pirates who were still carrying short whips from time to time, but they were also a little in awe.

First Officer Green's spur was still extremely effective, especially after the hungry captives poured a few sips of rum-filled water, and a dozen Barbary pirates armed with short whips let this group of water thieves know what spirit is and what it means to complete the deadline on time.

Corporal punishment and threats are always a kind of motivation, spurring this group of weak water thieves to work quickly, and although they hold shovels and pickaxes that can barely be used as weapons, they have no intention of resisting.

The Barbary pirates around them, wearing leather armor and sharp scimitars around their waists, had been starving for about two days, and now they were not even fighting angrily, even if they used these tools to level the dirt and broken stones, and knock down all the rotten wood, they were almost exhausted.

Keeping the captives and slaves hungry was also a means of controlling them, and after seeing that the project had gradually accelerated, and the ruins had been leveled by nearly half, the first officer Green, who was in charge of overseeing the reconstruction of Cape Town, also nodded with satisfaction.

"It's almost time, give them three slices of black bread each, and unlimited fresh water."

Giving some sweet dates at the right time was also a small means of controlling the captives and slaves, and it was quite effective, and of course the first mate Green understood, and stretched out his hand to beckon a sailor to come over, and also instructed him: "A barrel of fresh water and three large spoonfuls of rum, so that these friends of ours will be in good spirits for more work." ā€

The sailor immediately answered, turned and ran briskly along the repaired road towards the makeshift fortress, the food they had already prepared for the captives, it was only up to them to eat.

Of course, as captives and slave laborers, this group of water thieves must not eat the wheat bran mixed bread that Levi and his people eat now, but pure black bread like bricks.

Stockholm syndrome began to appear in the group of water thief captives, and after being told that they could rest and enjoy food, even the hard black bread caused the hungry water thief captives to swallow with tears in their eyes, apparently extremely hungry.

And a few Barbary pirates who watched them coldly also found a few water thief captives with good attitudes, although their previous plan to tame the water thief leader Kit failed, but this does not mean that their methods are wrong, on the contrary, Levi still intends to neutralize a few examples among this group of water thief captives, and let them manage themselves.

Sometimes their own people know their own people better, and when they help their enemies to treat their own people, they tend to burst out with a stronger desire to attack, which may be one of the complex emotions of human beings.

Whether it is the history of various countries on the earth in the previous life, or the phenomena that also exist in this world. Of course, they were also captives, but this miserable group of pirate captives was no better than the elven captives who were kept alone in tents and guarded by sailors.

The bread eaten by the elves was also the wheat bran bread that the sailors ate every day, and even there were bacon and sausages at every meal, as well as the soup they wanted to make, although the standard of living was still poor, but compared to those water thieves, it was like a heavenly gap.

In particular, the female elf commander with a delicate face and plump body was treated like a general, not only with white bread and cheese, fried fish and broth at every meal, but even a limited number of times a day to walk through the wind, but the location for the ventilation was mostly near Levi's tent, and it seemed that these sailors were also looking forward to some orders.

Levi, who was busy now, didn't have the heart to think too much, but after ordering the group of sailors to take care of the female elf, he had already quickly drawn a map of the surrounding terrain on a blank piece of paper.

The future of Cape Town also needs to be planned, especially when the Sheriff's Mansion is successfully established, then the development of Cape Town is really on track, especially the future building collocation also needs to be reasonable, otherwise when the game system is blessed with the blessing of Cape Town, it will be quite terrifying after rapid development.

After all, one round in the game is half a year, and it takes a few years to build a huge and magnificent stone building, which is almost god-fast in real life, where the cycle is usually calculated in decades.

If you look at the construction speed of concrete and steel in modern times, you can compare to how difficult it is to build buildings that are all made of large stones in ancient and modern times, if you follow the game half a year is one round, even if it is a large building built in six rounds, it is only three years!

And in this real world, it is unimaginable that a brilliant building can be built in more than three years, and in a world without reinforced concrete, it is already a miracle.

In other words, the system is no longer much different from miracles, recruiting people and warships out of thin air, using mysterious power to urge the sea breeze, which can only be done by powerful mages in this world, but now it is easily manipulated by Li Wei in his hands, and he can appear instantly with his mind.

"Your Majesty, the ruins of Cape Town are almost finished."

Just as Levi was drawing on the paper and determining the ruins of Haijiao Town to delineate the future development area, First Officer Green had already entered the tent, bent down calmly, and saluted respectfully before saying softly, "We can proceed to the next step of construction." ā€

"So fast?" Levi raised his head, slightly stunned, turned his head to look outside the tent, but found that he didn't know when the sky had darkened, and he shook his head and showed a wry smile: "Time flies quickly." ā€

After studying the city planning for an afternoon, Levi almost forgot the time, stood up and twisted his somewhat sore waist, and nodded to the first mate Green: "Go out and have a look, and strive to completely arrange things before dark." After a pause, Li Wei also shook his head and said, "You don't need to call your majesty the king every time. ā€

"It's not in line with etiquette, Your Majesty, and it's disrespectful to you."

First mate Green has now been transformed into a standard Spaniard, and after hearing Levi's words, his face did not change slightly, and he frowned and said calmly: "This is the honor that God has given me to be loyal to you." ā€

"There is no need to shout in front of others, so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings."

Touching the tip of his nose, Li Wei also shook his head helplessly, in this feudal era, there is a strict hierarchy, if he is called His Majesty, it is estimated that it will not be a laughing stock at that time, but a provocation to the entire aristocratic class.

In fact, First Officer Green also understood this, frowned slightly or nodded respectfully, and said: "Yes, Your Majesty, of course I and others will pay attention to the tone in front of outsiders, but in our hearts, you are still the king sent by God to save us, and the savior from heaven." ā€

"Perhaps."

Levi shook his head helplessly at these religious believers, put down the pencil in his hand and walked towards the outside of the tent, the sky was gradually darkening with a bit of silence, and the torches on the city wall had been lit and distributed, just like the stars on the ground, illuminating the dim corners around them.

The group of pirate captives were being reprimanded by the Barbary pirates as they lined up and walked back towards the low wall of their guards, each receiving three slices of black bread as they passed through the low wall.

This food is not enough to feed them, only to maintain the bottom line necessary for each meal, not to starve to death, and not to give them too much energy to think about miscellaneous things, and the spur from the Barbary pirates can also keep their work efficiency within an acceptable range.

Levi didn't pay much attention to these, and went directly to the outside of the temporary fortress with First Officer Green, and the ruins of Cape Town, which were originally in a primitive state, have now been basically leveled.

It seemed that there were not so many shrubs and groves, and although they were still a mess, and it seemed impossible to walk on their feet, they could be cleared at any time after leveling, after all, these wooden houses had rotted away, and it was much easier to clean up, at least than leveling the ground.

"Sheriff's Residence."

A card of a typical Baroque building, which was flashing with golden light in his mind, slowly swallowed and foamed, Levi's mind had already touched this card, and he looked at the ruins of Cape Town in front of him, which had already been planned in his heart and on paper, and directly recited silently in the very center of the ruins: "Confirm to build." ā€

A stream of green data instantly appeared in Levi's eyes, entangled and furious like the wind appeared in the middle of the ruins of Cape Town, and the countless rich data streams instantly rushed to the ground, and the force that set off made the leveled gravel, dirt, and rotten wood disappear in an instant.

The green stream of data began to spin wildly from the bottom up, but in Levi's eyes, the red-roofed marble walls and the three-story building with fountains and gardens appeared directly there as the stream rotated!

Unlike the ostentatious Gothic buildings, the Baroque Spanish Magistrate's Residence, known for its grace and magnificence, is already located in this ruin, and even the crowd in it seems that many people are busy preparing to welcome their Majesty the King.
