After Ren Changsheng introduced some common knowledge of the caravan to Zhang Sheng, he handed him a list of caravan goods.

In the end, he only chose 1,000 units of salt, a copy of "Qian Duolai's Cooking Experience", a copy of "Expeditionary Farm Optimization Experience", 20 ploughing cattle, and 10 boxes of paper.

That alone cost him one hundred and eighty gold coins, more than twice the market value of the Empire!

There are three types of coins in "Journey to Empire", from the most basic copper coins, to gold coins, to divine power crystal coins, and the conversion between each level is 10,000 to 1. Among them, the Divine Power Crystal Coin is both a currency and a top-level material, which is refined by a psionic researcher from the land infested by divine power, which is extremely rare and will not appear in ordinary rewards.

"By the way, here's for you." After a short transaction, Ren Changsheng took out a stack of slips and handed them to him.

These lists are bounty orders with the target's avatar, a brief biography, and a bounty on them.

"So much?"

"Is it much? That's just a small part, for you, because these people are probably hiding in the Canglin Mountains. ”

[Ran Chengjie: The former guard of the Baishi outpost, his internal qi was separated from his body, he encountered a group of beasts besieging the town, and fled without a fight. Give his head to Zhenyuan City, and reward him with three thousand meritorious deeds and one thousand and five gold coins. 】

[Qin Yuansheng: The former deputy general of the Heilin outpost, his internal qi was separated from his body, he lost the battle, abandoned the main general and fled, resulting in the fall of the Heilin outpost and the death of the main general. Give his head to Zhenyuan City, and reward him with two thousand meritorious deeds and one thousand gold coins. 】

[Nguyen Liangjun: ......]

These are all rebels from the expeditionary force, and the reward for meritorious service ranges from two or three thousand, and he must be able to complete four or five, which is enough to earn a barony.

The merits of "Journey to the Empire" are expensive, and the title is even more expensive! Dukes, marquises, uncles, sons, men, and barons need 10,000 merits, and for each promotion, the required merits are increased tenfold. Bounty orders are considered to be the most common means of spawning meritorious deeds, in addition to regional conscription and battlefield missions. Conventional territorial development, hunting beasts, bandits and bandits are not meritorious.

The characters on these bounty orders are all separated from the body, the specific force value is unknown, the force 81 is the internal qi separated from the body, and 95 is also the internal qi separated from the body, the gap between the two is not the same, and the strength in charge is not clear, and it is not something that the current Jiaolong Village can touch.

The caravan only stayed in Jiaolong Village for one night, and then set off again, saying that it still needed to go to the next new lord.

Zhang Sheng also carefully studied the map, in addition to his Jiaolong Village, there are also two other villages marked on the map, namely Wayao Village in the north and Hongliu Village in the west, which should be the same player territory as his Jiaolong Village. However, with the distance between the three villages, it is impossible to communicate in a short period of time.

With salt, Zhang Sheng and Qin Liangyu also accelerated the hunting of crocodiles in Jiaolong Lake, hoarding resources and training troops in battle.

In the blink of an eye, there were three days left in the one-month protection period of the territory.

With the daily inflow of refugees, the population of Jiaolong Village has swelled to 1,600, and the number of soldiers has reached 350. The construction of the village has not stopped, building houses, expanding workshops, opening up farmland, and trying to breed.

There are large areas of reeds on the shore of Jiaolong Lake, pheasants, mallards, geese, and swans in the reeds, just because of the threat of crocodiles, the villagers dare not drill into the reeds, and now Qin Liangyu will lead the troops to sweep in from time to time, and the dead are directly used as daily food, and the living ones are trying to be kept in captivity.

These days, there are more than 1,000 wild birds in captivity in the village, and some eggs have been hoarded, which is difficult to improve the quality of these wild birds and cannot raise high-level soldiers, but this is also an indispensable part of people's livelihood. With the guarantee of force, the food was better every day, and in just a few days, the morale of the people in the territory was raised to seventy-two.

In addition, these days the territory has opened up another 500 acres of farmland, planting seasonal seeds. With 20 ploughing oxen, the efficiency of farming has been greatly improved.

Zhang Sheng, who had just piled up a new batch of agricultural fertilizer, returned to the village with the smell of gold, and in front of the lord's courtyard, a fat man with a waist circumference almost equal to his height, a smile on his face, and a food box had been waiting for a long time.

"My lord, this is the latest cooking, you can taste it." When the fat man saw Zhang Sheng, he took out a plate of cooked crocodile meat from the food box.

"I said tall and fat, can't you wait for me to take a shower and change my clothes before taking it out? Can't you smell that smell on me! ”

The fat man's name is Gao You, don't look at this person who looks like a ball, but he is the existence with the highest level of life skills in Jiaolong Village at the moment, and the chef of insect cuisine level 8. Zhang Sheng handed over to him the previously purchased "Money Comes to Cooking Experience", which is expected to impact the master craftsman.

"Don't adults smell like this every day?" The tall fat man blinked innocently.

Recently, Zhang Sheng has been leading a group of farmers to fatten every day, poultry and animal manure, crocodile flesh and blood, bone meal, plant and wood ash, and the smell on his body is quite ecstatic, and he can no longer smell the aroma of meat.

"Forget it." Zhang Sheng waved his hand, picked up the bamboo chopsticks and picked up a strip of meat and put it in his mouth.

The opening of the sense of taste is definitely a big leap forward in the virtual era, and the deliciousness that blooms on the tip of the tongue is not comparable to a bland nutritious meal.

Spicy crocodile meat - quality 6, can strengthen physical strength by 5% after being full.

"Yes, how long is the storage period?"

Quality six, the rations of the white pole soldiers are available. However, military rations are different from daily diets, and many times the march and combat are involuntary, not that you can stop when you want to stop and bury the pot to cook.

Therefore, it is best to cook military food, or the cooking method is simple, the key is to save the time! At present, as we enter the summer in May, it is not only the preservation of military rations but also meat.

"It can be stored for three days in summer, seven days in spring and autumn, and more than fifteen days in winter."

"Continue to study new recipes, and find a way to extend the storage time of military rations." Military rations are an important part of determining the combat strength of the army, and are the basis for conquest in all directions.

"There are too few ingredients, and the villain is still better at insect cooking."

"Recently, I will go into the mountains with General Qin, and you will also go with you at that time." Zhang Sheng has been waiting, waiting for Qin Liangyu's white-pole soldiers to be trained, and if the territory wants to develop, it will eventually go out. Qin Liangyu and the white pole soldiers are not good at water warfare, and now they can only lure the crocodile ashore and cut it to defend the lakeshore, and it is difficult to develop the resources in the lake for a while.

"I'm going too?" The tall fat man looked tangled, and his facial features were crowded.

"Don't worry, with General Qin here, it's safer than in the village!"

The first leather armor of the realm had been made and had been handed down to the soldiers, and even he had put it on.

Standard Crocodile Leather Armor - 30 armor, 50 sturdiness, +10% penetration resistance.

This attribute is already considered excellent in whiteboard equipment, and if there are master craftsmen and tailors, it is expected to reach bronze quality.
