Chapter 28: The Beast Tide is Coming
With so many people coming here today, the existing house is definitely not enough to live in, and You Yuan should consider the housing problem in detail according to the information compiled by Lao He.
Let Lao He count first, he wants to see the situation of land reclamation.
Originally, he expected that it would be good to be able to open about a third, but as soon as he entered, he saw a well-renovated land.
You Yuan couldn't believe his eyes, and blinked vigorously a few times before he was sure that he was not mistaken.
"How did you do it so fast? It's a bit ridiculously efficient......" You Yuan couldn't stop muttering to himself, he couldn't believe that this was normal.
"By the way, Lao He, he is responsible for this matter, just ask him, what is going on?" You Yuan muttered as he prepared to return to the territory to ask Lao He, this matter was really strange.
But as soon as I turned around and didn't take a few steps, I saw a plow on the edge of the wasteland in the distance.
You Yuan couldn't believe his eyes, my God, what's going on today? Just wondering, there was a sudden chill around him, and I shivered.
It's Hugo coming.
His pale and thin hands were casting spells in the direction of the plow, and You Yuan finally reacted, "You got this?" β
Hugo did not stop casting, but simply replied with one word: "Hmm! β
After a while, he continued: "I heard that you made these things yourself, and I thought it was very interesting, so I wanted to try it, and sure enough, there is nothing that magic can't do." β
You Yuan didn't pay attention to the bias in his words, but continued to say: "Don't the elves plough the fields? β
Hugo replied with a rare smile: "It's similar to humans, just relying on the sky for food, but fortunately, the elves have a lot of food, and besides, we will trade some food from the Minotaurs and overseas every year." β
You Yuan was surprised: "Is there really a minotaur?" But he still looked as usual, and asked thoughtfully, "Where do the Minotaurs live?" I haven't met them yet? β
Hugo smiled again, and could see that he seemed to be in a good mood today: "Of course you can't see them, the place where they live is so far away from here that it can be said that almost no human can go to them, oh no, maybe some profession in the human race can, such as necromancers." β
You Yuan became more and more curious about how big this continent really was and how many races there were.
Both of them quietly looked at the plough rake in the distance, and after a while, Hugo turned his head and said, "I have to admit that you are a great human being, and you are very different from the rest of your kind. β
You Yuan wanted to say, "You are very different from yesterday," but in the end he only replied: "Thank you!" β
He didn't plan to stay here any longer, "I still have something to do, go back first, you can play by yourself!" β
Hugo looked at him: "Can you give me the drawings of this thing?" I'd like to look into it. β
"Of course, go back to me and get it!"
You Yuan returned to the center of the territory, Lao He had already counted everyone's family situation and sent it over, he took the list and began to think.
Including the two people at the beginning, Dawang and Ah Liang, the territory has received three batches of people. Most of these people are family members who have suffered accidents, so the population is not too large.
In the list provided by Lao He, there are 58 people in the territory except for the lord and Hugo, and according to the family, there are a total of 18 households. Now the most populous is Zhao Zhengde's family and one of the newcomers, all of whom are six people.
The maximum capacity of the upgraded house is just six people, and a total of 20 huts were built in the territory before, so as long as the existing huts in the territory are upgraded, all the current accommodation problems can be solved.
There are 4 households for one person and 4 households for two people, and the remaining 10 households are families of three or more, so as long as the housing of these 10 households is upgraded first, the problem of "no place to live" will be solved.
After thinking about it, You Yuan thinks that the easiest way is to let each family solve the building materials and construction problems by themselves.
As for one-person and two-person households, if they are willing to upgrade their housing, they can also slowly accumulate building materials, but they cannot affect their daily work tasks.
After thinking clearly, he called Lao He and Dawang over, and after finishing the proposal, both of them readily agreed.
After the agreement is unified, they will go their separate ways.
Dawang was originally assigned by You Yuan to be responsible for arranging work tasks for each person, and now he asked him to count everyone's workload and be responsible for supervising inspection and acceptance; Lao He is responsible for conveying the news.
This matter has been solved for the time being, just waiting for when someone will prepare the materials first, and You Yuan will go to upgrade the foundation for them.
And now he has more important things to do.
According to the system notification, he has now entered the novice gradual period, and although he has not seen any difference from the previous one so far, it does not mean that he can ignore this matter.
Another issue has come to the fore: now that the territory is populated, food availability will become an important issue. Lao He is now busy with residential matters, and the wasteland in the south has been reclaimed, so You Yuan decided to divide the responsibility field first, according to the population.
In this matter, he is going to take Dawang and teach him to write by the way.
He thought about it, since the arrow tower could expand its territory, it would first include the cultivated land that had been reclaimed, which would also be conducive to protection and management.
In addition, didn't Hugo say that the plot suitable for building the Mage Tower is also in that direction, then slowly extend it over there first, and then upgrade the territory, maybe it will be over there, and the left and right do not have the conditions to build the Mage Tower now.
Coming to the edge of the field, the three arrow towers that had been built outside before had already connected the city, and he measured that each primary arrow tower could expand a circular range territory with a diameter of 50 meters. After measuring, he created a total of 14 primary arrow towers, all on this field, so that he could not only protect the peasants, but also expand the territory to the south by nearly a hundred meters.
After laying the foundation, the rest of the work was handed over to Ah Liang, who also told him to equip each arrow tower with twice the amount of wood.
Before returning to the center of the territory, the system screen lit up, and it was written in red letters:
γPlease note! The beast tide is about to arrive in half an hour! The protective cover in the territory has a fixed lifespan, and if it exceeds the limit, it will break, so please be careful! γ
When You Yuan saw this news, he happened to walk to the gate of the territory, and after reading it three times, he found Hugo first and told him the news that the beast tide was coming. Of course, he didn't say that he got the system prompt, but said that he sensed it, and the other party didn't seem to suspect it.
After that, he informed everyone in the territory that there would be a beast tide in half an hour, so that everyone could hurry up and finish the finishing work and return to the territory as soon as possible, and after half an hour, the territory gate would be closed.
The consuls were convinced of You Yuan's words, and in less than 20 minutes, the number of people was counted, and all the staff arrived, and You Yuan personally closed the door and let the consuls go back to the house to rest.
There is still a while, he used this time to build a few more huts in the residential area, the people who came today, before the existing huts were upgraded, there was no place to live, and now everyone is in the territory, so solve today's living problem first.
The foundation of the 6 huts was created in a few minutes, and the territory brought its own warehouse with materials, and You Yuan let them prepare and build their own materials, and he had already heard the earth start to shake.
