Chapter 71 Assignment of Tasks

"Forget it, it's all on your own!" Just getting a vacant lot of land was worse than Zhou Tian had originally thought. However, Zhou Tian didn't have too many thoughts about this situation at that time, giving up the idea that he knew was unrealistic in his heart, and after Zhou Tian cheered himself up, he thought about how to develop the territory.

The other nobles either did not have a territory, and if they did have a territory, then they must have towns and villages, regardless of whether the inhabitants of the territory were large or small, as long as they had the ability, they would definitely be able to run it well. That is, Zhou Tian, because of the deliberate arrangement of Emperor Beamon, is now transferred to the border, and in such a situation, his situation at that time is not good.

Inevitably, there will be constant skirmishes between the two countries on the border, and for those armies on the border, the daily clashes between the two countries may be just a small fight. But if those things were to fall on ordinary people, or even lords, it would definitely be a disaster.

Imagine if a group of aliens would come over and kill a group of aliens in a territory from time to time, and the strength of the enemy was not enough for you to resist. In such an environment, there is no way to guarantee one's own safety, and it is impossible for anyone to live in that kind of place.

In fact, although there are indeed some gathering points or markets in some special border areas, most of the border areas are absolutely impossible for ordinary people to live. Without exception, if there are 'people' on the borders of most countries, there are only smuggling merchants except for the army.

Zhou Tian is also a little mentally prepared for the situation in his territory, after all, what is the border and Zhou Tian can guess without asking. Even if the neighboring country is a race that is not too aggressive, such as elves, since it is a foreign race, its territory is on the border, and it is inevitable that it will be harassed by the other party.

Of course, for Zhou Tian at that time, whether it was the situation of his own territory, or how the elves would react in the future, all of this was too early for him. For him at that time, there was actually only one important thing now, and that was the need to find a way to develop his territory.

No matter what, no matter how bad the geographical location is, even if the territory has no foundation, that place is still Zhou Tian's first territory. Although the difficulty was very great, if it was possible, Zhou Tian at that time still hoped to develop his territory.

After all, having a piece of land that can be completely mastered is a beneficial and harmless thing for Zhou Tian. If that territory can be developed well, it will be very beneficial to Zhou Tian's future development.

Moreover, although Zhou Tian's territory can be said to be poor and white at the moment, not to mention the inheritance left by his predecessor, he doesn't even have a lord. But Zhou Tian came over this time to pack and bring his original team together. Now, although he didn't have any foundation, Zhou Tian believed that as long as he had the support of those orcs under his command, it wouldn't take long for him to develop his territory according to his ability.

As a result, after having a plan in his heart, Zhou Tian did not waste time, but quickly made arrangements at that time.

"Ladies and gentlemen, although this land is still very barren at the moment, it is still our future home, and our own home is built with our own hands. Although we can be said to be poor and white at the moment, you have to believe in your own ability, before we could build a base in a canyon with nothing, then now we are also capable of building our own territory!" After clapping his hands to attract the attention of his employees, Zhou Tian said a morale-boosting word at that time according to the thoughts in his heart.

"Yes, since we were able to build a base before, now we can build a city!"

"Listen to the boss, we can definitely build our own territory. ”

"...... right"

Although the chicken soup for the soul is vulgar, it is really indispensable in a scene like that at that time, after all, the current situation is there, and the orcs under Zhou Tian are not stupid, how can they not see what kind of situation Zhou Tian was in at that time?

Although Zhou Tian was kind to most of his employees, and at the same time, his employees also believed in his ability, but no matter what, the desolate territory was placed there, even if the orcs under Zhou Tian would not betray him, after discovering that Zhou Tian's territory was like that, their enthusiasm must have been greatly affected.

If Zhou Tian didn't take any measures, it is estimated that for a long time, the orcs under him would have a passable attitude towards life, and that would definitely be what Zhou Tian didn't want to see. It was also for this reason that Zhou Tian, who had never performed in that regard, had to make a morale-boosting move at that time.

Obviously, Zhou Tian's actions at that time were still effective, and they were almost as simple as a stupid group of orcs who didn't have much thought at all, and after listening to Zhou Tian's words, they were immediately affected by his words and reinvigorated. Even because they were building their own 'territory', those orcs showed a full of energy at that time.

Seeing the expressions of the orcs under his command, Zhou Tian nodded with satisfaction, and then he didn't waste time, and directly ordered at that time: "Very good, the construction of the territory will be handed over to you in the future." However, before building the territory, we need to get a rest station, the territory can't be built in a day, and we can't stay in the field overnight at the moment!" After speaking, Zhou Tian thought about it and ordered again: "Lao Niu, you take five hundred people to set up tents, and you must ensure that every employee has a tent to live in, is there a problem?"

"No problem, there are actually no five hundred people, three hundred people are enough, and the others should be busy with other things!"

"There can't be a problem with the tent, give you five hundred people and you have to guarantee me that there will be no problem, otherwise if someone is out for the night, I will only ask you at that time." ”

"Guarantee to complete the task!" After speaking, Lao Niu didn't wait for Zhou Tian to reply, called a group of familiar orcs and carried the tent that Zhou Tian took out of the warehouse to work.

After seeing Lao Niu take action, Zhou Tian turned his head and ordered his maid again: "Anna, you lead the team of cooks to prepare food, and everyone is hungry after traveling for so long." After speaking, as if he remembered something, Zhou Tian hurriedly continued: "In addition, let the children in the team help build the stove, otherwise I am afraid that you will not be busy." ”

"I'm going to prepare. Without saying much, after listening to Zhou Tian's order, Anna just nodded, and then immediately led the people assigned to her by Zhou Tian to get busy.

And just after Anna also took action, Zhou Tian then ordered Arnold: "Monitor everything in the vicinity, and notify me immediately if there is any trouble." ”

Nodding silently, after listening to Zhou Tian's order, Arnold released the monitor in his body, and carefully monitored the nearby situation according to Zhou Tian's order.

Finally, after looking at the remaining people, Zhou Tian thought about it and ordered: "The others will act with me and dig a ditch along the line between our territory and the border of the Elven Empire." ”

I didn't ask why Zhou Tian gave that order, because of previous experience, those orcs under Zhou Tian had already developed the habit of blindly obeying his orders. After receiving Zhou Tian's order now, even if they couldn't think of why Zhou Tian gave that kind of order, those orcs at that time still chose to obey without hesitation.

And at the time of Zhou Tian's order, nearly 10,000 orcs under his command were all in action at that time, and a group of people lined up and worked with the shovels issued by Zhou Tian.

With the labor of those orcs, and with their concerted efforts, a deep ditch two meters wide and one and a half meters deep, and the length of which was still unknown, slowly took shape with the efforts of those orcs.

"This ditch will continue to expand and deepen, and in the future, it can not only be used to isolate our territory from the Elven Empire, but also play a role in storing water. In the future, so many of us will live here, and it will definitely not work without enough drinking water. Although Zhou Tian didn't go down to work in person, he also said the reason why he asked them to do the same, although he didn't say anything, those orcs would still work honestly, but it was obvious that if those orcs knew what they were doing, they would always be more motivated.

Sure enough, after listening to Zhou Tian's words, the orcs under his command immediately moved a little faster, and as a result, with the efforts of those orcs, although they did not dig a canal that Zhou Tian wanted, they had already laid the foundation for Zhou Tian's follow-up plan.
