Chapter 155: A contract must be signed
Yang Yi got more than a dozen architectural drawings from Bain, and he looked through them. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
It was found that two of them were Level 1 town-level architectural drawings, namely the City Wall and the Arrow Tower.
The rest are the basic architectural drawings of a level 3 village, including drawings of common buildings such as walls, houses, warehouses, inns, etc.
Yang Yi first asked the fish-man builders below level 3 to build the fish-man hut, so that he could settle the fish-man sent to the backwater oasis so that the fish-man would not lose his popularity.
Then Yang Yi found a level 3 fish-man builder, and he handed over the construction drawings of the hotel to a fish-man builder. This is a drawing of the construction of a large village-level inn, and Yang Yi instructed the fishman builder to build this inn as soon as possible.
"If developers want people to pay for a house, they always have to build a beautiful sales department first, and this hotel will be used as a sales department first." Yang Yi thought to himself that when the time comes, he will always bring the investors to see the scene, and first build a large building as an advertising campaign on the site.
There are still a few level 3 fish-man builders left, and Yang Yi called them together. Yang Yi gave each of the two Level 3 builders an architectural drawing of the Level 3 fence and asked them to start building the fence immediately. The other builders first let them start building living buildings such as warehouses and fish-man huts, so as to ensure the logistics of the battle fish-man and fish-man builders.
These two architectural drawings of the level 3 wall, one was purchased by the Goblin Wanderer in order to build the wall, and the other was brought by Banegang.
The wall is an important building to defend against the Centaur attack, and having a wall can protect the Fishmen inside the wall at least to a certain extent, so you don't have to worry about the Centaur sending a small team to constantly harass you.
Yang Yi hopes that the wall can be completed as soon as possible, but at present, he only has a total of two architectural drawings of the level 3 fence in his hands, so he can only arrange it this way for the time being.
Yang Yi still had a blueprint for the construction of the city wall, but he ruled out the possibility of building such a basic city wall in the town at the beginning. It takes nearly ten days to construct a 100-metre section of a level 3 wall, and it is estimated that it takes at least twice as long to build a 100-metre section of wall as a level 3 wall.
The key point is that Ratchet Town currently only has two level 4 fish-man builders, Gollum and Woolur, that is, they can only rely on these two level 4 fish-man builders to build the city wall section by section.
The backwater oasis is an open terrain, unlike Ratchet Town, where only walls are built at the entrances and exits.
Yang Yi made a rough calculation.
With the current talent conditions of Ratchet Town, no matter how reasonable the terrain is used, even if it is estimated that there will be other fish-man construction unions upgraded to level 4 in the future. If you want to fence off the future fish-man village of the backwater oasis with a town-level wall, you will never be able to complete it in a year.
The Fish-Man can wait a year, but the Centaur won't, so he has to settle for building a level 3 wall first.
Yang Yi plans to take advantage of this time to buy the architectural drawings of the level 3 wall, so that all the level 3 fishman builders can devote themselves to the construction of the level 3 wall, so that the construction speed can be greatly accelerated.
News always spreads quickly among the pioneers, and many of the pioneers who are operating near the backwater oasis rush to learn that the fish-man and the minotaur are going to build a stronghold in the backwater oasis.
Yang Yi found that in a short period of time, dozens of pioneers had come to the land of the Backwater Oasis that had just been burned to ashes, and most of these people came to see if they could reap the benefits of it.
Yang Yi naturally became happier when he saw the more pioneers came, but he ignored those pioneers for the time being, and he directly found Braque.
Braque is directing the fish-men to dig trenches, barbs, and horses, and behind the trenches is a wall that is being built. Until the wall is erected, this fortification will be the main defensive barrier for the new stronghold.
Yang Yi walked over and said to Brak, "Brak, the master plans to build a large village here. ”
Brak said, "Lord, will this also be the territory of our ratchet fish people in the future?" ”
Yang Yi said: "Yes, but in the future, this place will not only be exclusive to us ratchet fish people." You send a small team of Fighting Fishmen back to Ratchet Town, and ask the old blind deputy mayor to send more Fishmen to labor and transport more materials. ”
Braque nodded.
Yang Yi took out a piece of parchment that had been prepared a long time ago and handed it to Brack, "This letter asks them to take it back to the old blind deputy mayor." ”
"Yes, my lord."
Braque took the parchment and hurried away to make arrangements.
Yang Yi watched Brak leave, he made a tour of the construction site, and then he went to find Bane the Minotaur and them.
A small group of battle fishmen was sent back to Ratchet by Brack, and the backwater oasis was still some distance away from Ratchet Town, and the group of fishmen did not return to Ratchet Town until midnight.
After Yang Yi left, Lao Blind was in charge of Ratchet Town, and when he got the report of the fishman patrolling the beach, he immediately met with the fishman who came back.
The fish-man who returned from the backwater oasis conveyed Yang Yi's instructions to the old blind eye, and then they handed over Yang Yi's parchment letter to the old blind eye.
The old blind eye opened the parchment and found that there was a lot written on it.
The main content of this parchment is to ask the old blind to send another brigade of fighting fishmen to the Backwater Oasis, and there is also about raising funds to build the Backwater Oasis stronghold.
Yang Yi thought about it, and the stronghold of the Backwater Oasis still has a large market as the first aboriginal village and town to raise funds from the pioneers. Therefore, Yang Yi set a threshold for investors, which will make people feel that the opportunity is rare.
The parchment is detailed that those who can make it to the Ratchet Friendly List can invest 10 gold coins, those who enter the Honor List can invest 100 gold coins, and those who enter the Reverence List can invest 1000 gold coins.
It's not hard to get into Ratchet's reputation list, the easiest thing is to make a deal with Ratchet or complete Ratchet Town's bounty announcement. According to the rules set by Yang Yi at the beginning, as long as you complete the monetary exchange with the fishmen in Ratchet Town, a total of 1 gold coin can be entered into the friendly list, and then the respect list of 10 gold coins and the reverence list of 100 gold coins will be followed.
The Pioneers who regularly interact with the Fishmen of Ratchet have made more or less money by trading with Ratchet or completing announcements, so brushing up on Ratchet Tooth's reputation is a good thing for them in itself.
That night, the old blind eye wrote a big announcement according to the instructions in Yang Yi's letter and nailed it to the bulletin board outside the west gate of Ratchet Town.
Early the next morning, the fishmen of Ratchet Town wanted to jointly build a village in the Backwater Oasis, and the news of public fundraising quickly spread completely, and even the content of the new announcement posted outside the west gate of Ratchet Town was completely posted on the forum.
The major forces of the pioneers began to discuss the matter of the aboriginal fishmen raising funds to build a village, and the forum exploded at once.
So far, there have been few forces that have been able to establish a strong foothold in the world of Azeroth, and most of them have been based in remote and ownerless areas.
The Northern Golden Road, which faces the Near Barren Land to the west, is a great way to the Crossroads to the north, and the Pioneer Forces are very advantageous if they can take root here.
As an alien human, the pioneer was rootless when he first came to the world of Azeroth, and the attitude of the aborigines towards the pioneer was also lukewarm, and everything needed the pioneer to work hard from scratch.
Many of the pioneers in the Barren have managed to establish a relationship with the natives of the crossroads until now, but they are only allowed to enter the town, and they are not allowed to stay in it at night.
This is the first time that indigenous people like Backwater Oasis have taken the initiative to seek foreign investment to build villages and towns.
Yang Yi walked around the forum offline, and saw that the backwater oasis was going to raise funds to build a village and became a hot topic on the forum, and he couldn't stop talking.
Back in the world of Azeroth, Yang Yi thought that the news was so hot that there should soon be a large group of leaders of large and small forces rushing to invest, but he didn't expect to wait for a day without any movement.
At this time, most of the pioneers operating in the vicinity of the Barren Land were still on the sidelines, and they only sent a few more people to inquire about the situation.
"How so? Isn't it time for the heads of the major forces to hold gold coins and squeeze their heads to beg the master? Could it be that I set the investment threshold too high, so they don't come? ”
Yang Yi stood in front of the inn under construction and kept thinking, if no one was willing to invest, then his words in front of the Minotaur that he would directly build a large village would become an empty cannon.
At this moment, a holy sword knight walked over with several members of the Holy Sword Knights.
"Brother Mayor Poseidon, we, the Knights of the Holy Sword, have decided to invest in the construction of the Backwater Oasis." The head of the regiment, a holy sword knight, said.
Because Yang Yi didn't deliberately keep it secret, it only took a few days for many people to know his new name, and these well-informed pioneers even knew about it.
"You've decided to invest?" Yang Yi was immediately happy when he heard that he was going to invest, and a holy sword knight tried his best to make his expression and tone look stable, but his unconcealable cheap eyes betrayed him deeply, Yang Yi knew that this guy was not an absolutely unstable person.
Yang Yi looked at the rest of the Holy Sword Knights again, and these teenage young people nodded one by one like chickens pecking rice, it seemed that they had made a decision.
The Holy Sword Knights have grown rapidly since they cooperated with the fishmen in Ratchet Town, and Yang Yi found that these people are all familiar faces, and they should all be the backbone of the Holy Sword Knights.
"Yes, we, the Knights of the Holy Sword, have decided to invest."
"Well, how much are you going to invest?" Yang Yi calmed down and asked.
"50 gold coins." A holy sword knight said word by word.
"50 gold?." Yang Yi was slightly disappointed, he needed to raise 10,000 gold coins, and these 50 gold coins were just a drop in the bucket.
"50 gold coins are fine, I'll take it."
Yang Yi finally stretched out the fishman man's hand, which was the first investment.
In fact, 50 gold coins can already be exchanged for a lot of money, which is a huge amount of money for most people, let alone investing in the Fish-People of the world of Azeroth.
The Holy Sword Knights are no better than those big forces, all this money was earned from Ratchet Town before, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to take out so many gold coins.
Taking out 50 gold coins is already a ruthless decision for the people of the Holy Sword Knights, who have seized the opportunity of the development of Ratchet Town and made a few sums of money, which can be said to be one step ahead of the pioneers.
This time, the Holy Sword Knights followed the fishmen of Ratchet Town to the Backwater Oasis, and a Holy Sword Knight was the first to know that the fishmen of Ratchet Town were going to build a village in the Backwater Oasis, and at the same time, he also learned that this village would be occupied by the Minotaurs of Thunder Cliff in the future.
"Accepted?" A holy sword knight looked at Yang Yi's outstretched fish man's hand and was very confused, 50 gold coins was a huge amount of money for him and the Holy Sword Knights, how could such a large investment of money be collected like this.
"Brother Mayor Poseidon, our Holy Sword Knights have the conditions." Said a knight of holy swords.
"Conditions? What conditions? Yang Yi asked, he didn't expect that this "mere 50 gold coins" would also have to negotiate conditions.
A holy sword knight made eye contact with several of the backbone of the regiment and said, "Regarding the big house assigned to us, our Holy Sword Knights hope that it will be a room that can be used as a storefront. ”
"Cheng, I'll leave you a big house with a good location that can be used as a storefront." Yang Yi thought about it for a while and decided.
This is also the first investment, which shows that the Knights of the Holy Sword can trust the ratchet fishmen. And it is also necessary to set an example for those who are waiting and watching, and it is also appropriate to give more benefits.
The big house that the Holy Sword Knight said was actually a few level 3 houses that had just been built in the backwater oasis by the Fishmen in Ratchet Town, and the level 3 houses of this general purpose building looked boxy on the outside, each house occupied an area of about fifty square meters, and there was also a small attic, which was not bad for living.
In Yang Yi's plan, the large villages in the backwater oasis should be able to accommodate about 5,000 permanent aborigines, and about 100 houses of various sizes would be needed to house these aborigines. Then he plans to build another 100 houses for the investment pioneers, so that the village needs 200 houses of various types.
A large village has hotels, shops, warehouses, and other buildings in addition to housing. The total cost of the building materials for this large village as a whole is about 10,000 gold coins, so it is acceptable for the Knights of the Holy Sword to be the first to invest and give them a large house where they can be used as storefronts.
"This ......" A holy sword knight looked at Yang Yi and stopped talking, he hesitated for a moment before he spoke: "Are we going to sign a contract?" ”
"Sign the contract?" Yang Yi was stunned, he had never thought about making a contract, but he immediately said: "Sign, I want to sign, but this contract still needs to wait." ”
Without seeing the contract, the people of the Holy Sword Knights would not hand over a huge sum of 50 gold coins to Yang Yi because of "trust", and they left after a few more words with Yang Yi.
"Captain, do you say this fish-man understands what a contract is? Can the fish-people keep the spirit of the contract? As he left, a man asked not only worriedly.
"Poseidon is different from other fishmen, I just talked to him, he at least knows what a contract is." A holy sword knight wasn't too sure either. "And, Bain Bloodhoof, and the other minotaurs of Thunder Bluff."
A holy sword knight didn't make it clear to Yang Yi, the mayor of the fish-man town, just now, he actually learned that the big village of this backwater oasis in the future had a close relationship with the minotaur of Thunder Cliff, so he dared to give it a go and invest boldly.
Among the pioneers, the face of the minotaur Bane Bloodhoof is much larger than that of Yang Yi, a fishman. If Yang Yi hadn't joined forces like Labain and his Thunder Cliff Minotaur in the first place, he wouldn't have found anyone willing to invest in the construction of the Fishman Backwater Oasis now.
……
Of course, Yang Yi also knew that the people of the Holy Sword Knights were willing to invest only when they saw the Minotaur, which was one of the reasons why he would rather divide half of the built village to the Minotaur and work hard to pull the Minotaur banner.
After the people of the Holy Sword Knights left, Yang Yi's head began to spin, thinking about the contract.
"I'm a fishman now, how can I get a formal contract? At most, they write a short note, and they can't sign it, and it's not good if someone finds out that the handwriting is the same as that of 'polymath'. ”
Not long after the people of the Holy Sword Knights left, Mu Xiaolan came over with people, and in the last few days, Mu Xiaolan and they have been working as assistants to Tuga the Minotaur, and they have been working hard to restore the backwater oasis.
"Mayor Poseidon, we want to invest in a new village in the backwater oasis." Mu Xiaolan said.
"Welcome, I wonder how much you want to invest?" Yang Yi nodded immediately when he heard this, and the money for building the village was still a lot short.
Yang Yi has now guessed that Mu Xiaolan and their approach to Ratchet Town is actually coming for the Minotaur, after all, Mu Xiaolan and they have been working hard for a long time to get in touch with the Minotaur.
"3,000 gold coins." Mu Xiaolan replied.
"Okay." Yang Yi thought to herself that Mu Xiaolan's ambition was really not small, which was a lot of money. Since she dares to invest, of course I dare to accept it.
Yang Yi is now warmly welcomed, and the 3,000 gold coins have filled nearly one-third of the funding gap at once.
In recent times, Mu Xiaolan has been more diligent than any pioneer in brushing the reputation of the fishmen in Ratchet Town. Now Mu Xiaolan and Applejack are on the revered list of Ratchet Town, and the rest of the Qin Kun Society is also on the revered list, so they are eligible to invest 3,000 gold coins.
Mu Xiaolan and they also have their own investment requirements, and then Yang Yi chatted with them for a while, but because there was no contract, Yang Yi couldn't get the 3,000 gold coins for a while.
"This is not good, I see the money in hand, but I can't get it because I don't have a contract, so I have to ask someone to write the contract immediately."
The two investment funds flashed in front of him because there was no contract, and Yang Yi hurriedly ran to solve the problem.
The defenses of the Backwater Oasis are being built in a hurry.
The next day, a second group of fishmen sent by Ratchet Town arrived at the Backwater Oasis with supplies and food, and they were immediately put into construction.
Soon after, the Minotaur follow-up party also arrived at the Backwater Oasis.
Yang Yi and Bane greeted the arrival of this group of minotaurs, this time there were more than 300 minotaurs, and Yang Yi found that the group of minotaurs following the group did not look like combatants from their clothes.
"Poseidon, these are the villagers who fled from the Stonetalon Mountains, and they will settle here in the future." Bane said, pointing to the minotaurs at the back of the line.
"Yes, welcome." Yang Yi nodded.
Yang Yi told the Minotaurs at the beginning that they didn't need to come out with the manpower and material resources, but Bane arranged for these Minotaurs to build the Minotaur Village by themselves before coming to the Backwater Oasis.
Yang Yi and Bain have discussed in the past few days, and the new stronghold of the Backwater Oasis is not a complete mix of people of different races. After all, most of the Minotaurs are still reluctant to live with the Fishmen, so Bane chose the tops of several small peaks tens of meters high to the west of the oasis lake to build their Minotaur camp according to the living habits of the Minotaurs, while the Fishmen of Ratchet Town will build a Fishman Village near the edge of the lake near Thundering Peak.
The two are bounded by the median line of the lake, so that not only is the boundary clear, but also the precious water of the lake can be used together.
In fact, such a division also has its own considerations. In addition to the Minotaur's habit of building their settlements on high ground, the location they chose was also close to the crossroads, and the location of the Fish-Man Village was also close to Ratchet Town.
Yang Yi has been staying in the backwater oasis, and when he is fine, he patrols the construction site.
Yang Yi walked to the lake after inspecting the completion site, and when he came to the lake, Yang Yi stumbled upon a group of people standing between the two small peaks on the west side of the backwater oasis.
"Where do these people gather and what are they doing?"
Yang Yi looked over with his eagle eye technique and found that it was Lu Xiaoming and his men.
"Lu Xiaoming, this kid, is sneaky, is he playing some bad idea."
Yang Yi felt that there was a big problem, Lu Xiaoming and the others seemed to have really connected with the high-level of the Kokar Centaur, and reported the news to the Kokar Centaur every time.
"In the past, those Kokar centaurs were dealing with the Horde Alliance, so I don't care, I can't let you do any more sabotage this time."
Yang Yi looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to him, so he activated the Fishman Ambush Technique.
[Stealth].
Yang Yi's figure gradually became blurred, and he quietly dived in the direction of Lu Xiaoming and them. (To be continued.) )
