Chapter 164: Reclamation (II)
In April, the island named Anrida by the gods.
Along the northern part of the island, mountains divide the island into two halves.
The scenery is truly beautiful, with snow-white sandy beaches, plenty of forests, and a large flock of exotic birds that fly like patches of colour.
Dotted with archipelagos, huge reefs and brilliant wildflowers, this archipelago is unique.
"Governor, please instruct!"
"Find the right spot and start anchoring!"
"The 1st, 2nd, and 3rd detachments began to search for the situation near the shore, and the other sailors went to the beach for a simple camp. Governor Pictos commanded, and after two months of sailing, the huge fleet had reached its destination.
"Yes!" someone replied.
After a moment's wait, the hull shook and it was already coming ashore.
"It's a natural deep-water port, Governor!" Naturally, someone with an experienced experience immediately noticed this.
"God, this is your will, you bless!" already had the believers of Romon kneeling down and praying with all their hearts.
According to the instructions of the governor, and the preparations had already been made, therefore, it was very quick and began to get busy.
First of all, it was to use tools to cut down a small area of jungle, and the valuable trees were turned into wooden fences, and the worthless ones were turned into fuel, and in order to prevent plague and pests, the camp was set on fire.
In the flames, countless insects and snakes fled one after another, and after an hour, the flames were extinguished, and a charred field was vacated, which was the new camp.
There were already people, and they began to build around the wooden fence.
At this time, the detachment was exploring.
A young man was walking cautiously in the forest, followed by two male warriors, each with a weapon in his hand, looking around vigilantly as he walked.
Daniel is the second son of Lord Rugan, and he is very enthusiastic about participating in this expedition, of course, with the aim of gaining a small territory and becoming a new family.
Daniel was only the son of a lord, and the family sent only two able-bodied warriors.
But there is also a scholar who can draw maps.
After two months of sailing, there was not much food left on the ship, so the collection of food, the search for suitable freshwater rivers, and the repair of the boat were also problems that they had to solve this time.
By this time the sky had cleared, and the morning sun was shining gently on the earth, and before they knew it, they had left the camp for a long distance.
The place where we are now is a sparse forest, and the air is filled with the fragrance of grass and trees, which is normal, but for a group of people who have just come out of the storm and the salty smell of the sea, such a fresh and sweet air is simply wonderful.
Greedily breathing in the fresh air, everyone continued to walk forward, and when a piece of mushroom mixed with green and tender grass suddenly appeared in front of them, the people of this team all opened their eyes wide and swallowed their saliva.
"Mr. Inge, do you think these mushrooms are edible?" Daniel asked his scholar.
"I'm not a druid, but according to my knowledge, these are edible mushrooms...... You see, there are also traces of insects and ants. The Inger scholar watched carefully and said.
The only thing people do is try to fit them as hard as they can - after all, after eating salted fish for countless days, the allure of fresh mushroom soup is almost impossible for anyone to resist.
Even Daniel was disgusted with a salted fish feast that lasted for days.
While everyone was busy collecting, dozens of birds suddenly flew up from the woods not far away, screaming in fright in the air.
In some cases, the people who had been busy collecting food just now suddenly became vigilant, and the warriors immediately clenched their weapons in their hands.
"Whew!" just as everyone was arming their weapons and preparing to attack, an animal sprang out of the woods.
"It's a wild boar!" exclaimed the Inger scholar.
"Kill, kill it, bring it back. Daniel jerked out his sword.
He and his two attendants, both of whom are third-level warriors, are still not a problem dealing with a wild boar.
A warrior stepped forward and blocked the boar's steps, which, although thick-skinned, was not without weakness, and was quickly wounded by the warrior's attack.
The wounded boar slowed down significantly, and Daniel and one of the other warriors mercilessly dealt the boar a fatal blow!
Flattened the boar and looked at the bloody, brain-splattered corpse of the boar on the ground.
Daniel couldn't react for a while, but the wild boar meat was delicious, and it was a crime for everyone who had eaten salted fish for many days to throw it here and not take it away.
"It's strange that the wild boar seems to be fierce, but in fact it has a relatively docile temperament, why is it so hateful when we see it?" said to himself in confusion.
Daniel also thought it was strange, and he examined the boar carefully, but found nothing unusual.
"Shall we continue our walk inside?" Seeing him come to his senses, the Inger scholar consulted him.
Daniel stood up and looked deeper into the forest.
"Of course, we still need to find some materials to repair the boat, and just now I went all the way and found that the further you go in, the stronger the texture of the trees, which is suitable for repairing the boat. ”
"What about the wild boar?"
"That's it, wild boar, you drag it back, it's not far anyway, let's move on. Daniel thought for a moment and said to one of the warriors.
"Yes, young master!" replied the warrior.
Almost at the same time, a giant eagle with thirty meters of wings was flying over the island, and on its broad back, five people could sit, all of them scholars on patrol.
Someone was even drawing a map on the spot.
Romon became a true god, and the connection with lightning was broken, but even so, lightning reaped great benefits.
Now, it has turned into golden feathers, can speak, has intelligence, and has a life form beyond the realm of beasts.
Eleni looked up and continued to speak to the scholar.
With the continuous evolution of the territory, not only did many high-level professionals come to the country, but also many scholars were trained in the local area.
"Madame, we think it's time to start planting and it's time to plant a batch of wheat. ”
"What about the planning of the wheat area, have you come to a conclusion?" asked Eleni.
"Madame, we will speed up the revision of the original drawings according to the environment on the island, so that the layout is reasonable, but planting a small piece of wheat field of 1,000 acres will not only supplement some of the grain, but also provide enough seeds for winter wheat. ”
"In terms of food, we have basically preliminarily decided that the nearby waters are suitable for the growth of various kinds of fish, and the fishery resources are extremely rich, and we must be able to provide abundant fishery resources. ”
"Coupled with the food that was still on board, the food problem was not very big, on the contrary, white hemp had to be planted immediately. ”
The so-called white hemp, a hemp plant grown in this world, is the main source of clothing for the common people, most of which are sown in late April and harvested in September.
Although the woven cloth is rough, it is soft and smooth, strong and durable, and most importantly, it has a relatively good function of keeping warm from the cold.
"There are also sheep, which must be immediately fenced and grazed to harvest the cold items used in winter. One scholar added: "The breeding of sheep will take time, and it must be carried out as soon as possible." ”
In this world, civilians are basically dressed in sackcloth.
Wealthy people or squires wore woolen clothes to protect themselves from the cold.
Only the nobility wore woolen sweaters, but also made coats or cloaks out of various animal skins.
In fact, the main role of cotton hu*a is only to fill the pillow or the inner layer of clothes with that kind of soft plant fiber, and there are similar varieties.
I have already started to look for this.
Eleni nodded and said, "You're right, as for cocoa, coffee, coconut palm, tea tree, etc., you can ignore it first, even including the olive tree." ”
"Your task is to plan the overall architectural drawings first, and as for the actual construction, the first thing to build is the road, the wooden house, the dock, and the warehouse. ”
"Madame, where's the altar?"
"Temples and similar structures do not have to be built at the first time, as long as there is piety in the heart, God will naturally know about it. Eleni said, and only she could say that.
According to the general rule, what can be delayed, the first thing to be built, is the temple.
"Yes, ma'am!" the scholar present responded.
"As for the other islands, our ship has already passed, what do you think?"
"Madam, the other islands are not far apart, most of them are within a dozen miles and dozens of miles, which is not a very long distance for the ocean, and some islands also have hundreds or hundreds of square kilometers, which can be developed, but at present, the development of the main island can only be concentrated. The scholar said.
"Aside from the main island, how much is the largest island?"
"About 300 square kilometers. One scholar thought for a moment and said.
"Named Lightning Island, marked by the Golden Eagle, this island is planned to be the religious domain of the Church of Nature, specializing in the training of clergy and dealing with the affairs of the local churches, and the Druid Guild can also establish a stronghold here. ”
"Yes!"
No one doubts this, which is in line with the norms of this world.
Any church has an exclusive area, and according to the laws of the world, it has the right to be the lord.
Generally speaking, there are wide squares, magnificent shrines, lavish palaces, museums, military camps, schools, etc., and their main function is to train and direct the natural churches of the world.
Most of the people who live here are priests and paladins.
In essence, it is a seminary area, but it has 300 square kilometers, and of course it will have its own manor and fruit groves, so that it is basically self-sufficient and not affected by the outside world.
The specific design can be decided by scholars, but the overall planning must be classified and decided by Elenie.
Eleni knows that these overall designs will have a great effect.
God can be indisputable, but mortals must pay attention to this.
