Blackstone Town. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
It's a typical western town, and it comes across as a mixed wheel, rugged.
The entrance to the town, like most towns, is a bulletin board, and there are two rows of houses going inside.
The spacious streets of Blackstone Town are barely paved with stones, but they are still a little undulating, and most of the houses in the two rows are grocery stores or taverns, after all, this is a town with many adventurers and mercenaries.
In the past, there was an alternative bustle on the streets here, with mercenary adventurers and civilians running errands, and in taverns, all kinds of vicious warriors shouted and touched their wine glasses.
Since the orcs took over the place, there was a great war, many troublesome mercenaries were killed, and then another great purge, and the town became dead and silent.
It has to be said that this town relies on restless mercenaries and brave outlaws to support the appearance of prosperity, and when the orcs are fiercely cleansed, the essence of this place is so dilapidated.
No matter who rules here, life will go on!
Harlan rubbed his hands together and prepared to walk out of town to see if he could find something to eat.
In the old days, he could also help those merchants and lords carry goods, which could also earn some living expenses, and no matter how poor he was, he could accept the hired by adventurers to enter the wilderness as a guide, although he would lose his life from time to time, but he could also get a bite to eat.
But with Wang Xiaotian's purge, both the gangsters and the mercenaries disappeared, although the order was cleared, but it made the people at the bottom lose the source of survival.
"What is this?"
Walking to the entrance of the town, Harlan saw a group of people surrounding the bulletin board, and the scene was very lively.
"What kind of cement road is going to be built in Blackstone Town, it is said that there is a gray stone city in the depths of the Great Wilderness, and now it is recruiting workers for our town!"
A man in a gray cloth shirt read out the contents of the bulletin board, and everyone around him asked.
"What is this concrete road?"
"Where's Greystone City?"
......
A group of people asked in a gossiping voice, and the man said unhurriedly: "I don't know about this cement road or something, but it says that the reward is paid with food, well, you can go to the vicinity of the town mansion to sign up." ”
"Food!"
When Harlan heard this, his eyes lit up, and his eyes instantly burned when he heard these two words.
For civilians like him, there is nothing more attractive to them than food, and he only has a handful of strength, and he can do the work of building roads, if he can pay for it with food, anyway, it will be a bad life, why not give it a try, at least not starve to death.
Thinking like this, Harlan hurriedly ran in the direction of the mayor's mansion.
Along the way, he also saw a group of people hurrying there, apparently also for food.
When he reached the mayor's mansion, he saw a lot of people from the town lining up there, two teams of orcs in armor armed with weapons and patrolling the neighborhood to maintain order.
Harlan honestly lined up.
Soon, an orc dressed as a clerk registers their names, and then, to Harun's surprise, they are taken to a residential building.
"Everyone receives a number plate, and in the future, your food will be received by virtue of the brand! And your tools and other things, you have to receive them according to the brand, have you remembered?"
Harlan received a [C-53] sign, and he quickly memorized it, because this was his future food.
The town of Blackstone is just too barren.
Wang Xiaotian had to think of such a way to provide jobs for the people of the town by building roads.
If you want to get rich, you must first build roads.
On the one hand, building a cement road to Greystone City can greatly reduce the transportation time on both sides, on the other hand, it can also provide a large number of jobs, and moreover, a complete cement road is not only necessary for commercial use, whether it is to transport troops or communications.
And it's about to be winter, and the road conditions from Blackstone Town to Graystone City are very unsatisfactory, unless it is a monitor lizard beast pulling the transformed beast cart, otherwise it is too time-consuming and laborious.
What's more, Nick has already left Blackstone, and the next time he arrives, it will be when the Greystone Alliance's army is out of the wilderness.
That is, the war is about to start at any moment.
Time was of the essence, so it was imperative to build a road to reduce the transportation time on both sides.
At the same time, not only to build roads, Wang Xiaotian also ordered the renovation of the buildings in the town, and adjusted the remuneration according to the labor force, at least to ensure that they can rely on work to fill their stomachs.
It is also very important to renovate the town, because Wang Xiaotian wants to lay some rune equipment in the black stone town.
In his mind, Blackstone would be a buffer town for the Greystone Alliance to communicate with humans, so it had to have a strong defense system, and with the turmoil in the west and the haze of war shrouded in war, Blackstone Town also needed to be guarded by the power of runes.
In this way, the renovation of the town and the construction of roads will provide a lot of jobs for the town, take the renovation of the town, for example, there is the work of moving wood, and there are all kinds of work of pushing stones......
And Wang Xiaotian just needs to pay for food.
Wang Xiaotian also envisioned that if the conditions were sufficient, a scoring system would be provided, and unlike Greystone City, the points here could be converted into gold coins.
After all, the population of Blackstone Town is still in the thousands, and there are some shops in the town, and when the road is repaired, the Graystone Orcs will transport a large number of goods, which can be purchased through points.
Of course, all of this is carried out under the premise of ensuring the stability of Blackstone Town.
Time flies.
The town of Blackstone is in ruins, and residents are heading to the mayor's mansion to register, where there are plenty of houses waiting to be expanded, plenty of items to be made, and plenty of building materials to move......
Unlike Greystone City, Wang Xiaotian personally used a large amount of rune technology, and everything here required labor.
Originally, a large number of interests in Blackstone Town were controlled by those adventurer mercenaries, but when Toure killed them with a great sword, it was easier for the town to enforce the decree.
Wang Xiaotian's idea for Blackstone is: "Everything in Blackstone Town must rely on your own hands to fight!"
Graystone City is his base camp, his idea is that "runes are the first productive force", Graystone City will become the first line of technology, by building the top rune technology, Graystone City will pull the progress of Blackstone Town, and finally reach each other's horns.
At the same time, Greystone City is indeed developing rapidly.
With the Ink Blade Army sweeping away all the beasts near Greystone City, and the force in Greystone City, it seems that this year's winter will be a lively winter.
