Chapter 25 Village Ranking
After seeing off Zonghengtianxia and his group, Huangfu Chaobo and the others came to the workshop area in the village together. A bow and arrow workshop and a carpenter's workshop have already been built here, and other buildings stopped because Huangfu Chaobo said that they were only half built. Now a blacksmith's workshop is being built.
Blacksmith workshop: primary, construction requirements: 20 units of wood, 20 units of stone, 50 copper of money, primary blacksmith. A place where blacksmiths work. It can accommodate 3 blacksmiths working at the same time.
As soon as I arrived at the workshop area, I saw nearly 30 villagers working nervously, and Henry Zhang and the blacksmith and carpenter were directing. Seeing Huangfu Chaobo and others coming, the three of them walked over immediately.
"I've seen you, son."
"Meet the village chief."
"How about it, how long will it take to build it?"
"Now the brackets have been supported, and the thatch on the roof is almost paved. Just make the wooden wall and fix it." Henry Zhang said;
"Well, that's good. By the way, Brother Blacksmith, what do you call you? And what do you make. The iron plow should be fine, right?"
"Back to the village head, the younger one is called Chen Da. Although I just entered the door yesterday, I can still beat these iron farm tools. And after I learned yesterday, the village head Zongheng asked me if I would like to come to our village. After knowing that I agreed, I also asked the master to teach me how to forge iron knives and iron gun heads. Although the weapons produced now are all inferior, the quality of the weapons can be gradually improved after gradually becoming proficient. But , the weapons I make are all from level 10 to level 15. If you want to make higher level or other weapons, you must have blueprints or practice more. And for guns, you need a carpenter My brother provided me with a wooden gun handle." said the blacksmith;
"There is no problem with this. What we can use now is about this level. The blueprint can be done slowly, and even if you have the blueprint, you may not be able to make it. By the way, what kind of iron ore do you need for farm tools? stone?"
"For agricultural tools, use low-quality iron. One catty of iron can be used to make the head of an iron plow, and then the head can be wrapped on the wooden plow. If it is ordinary-quality iron, one catty can be used for two iron plows. If I If we start from now on, we should be able to finish all the iron plows that will be used in the village before tomorrow, and it will not affect tomorrow's grain growing." Facing Huangfu Chaobo's question, the blacksmith answered seriously.
"This is great, my son. With the iron plow, our speed can be increased by half. By tomorrow, we should be able to recruit 60 farmers. If we start work at the same time, we can drive 180 farmers in five days." Mutian, so we will have nearly 12,000 grains by the end of the month. It would be great if there were more cattle, and then we could double the speed. Alas, it’s a pity that we can’t buy cattle at all now.” Henry Zhang Said regretfully.
"Don't be dissatisfied. It's a surprise to be able to complete the iron plow before tomorrow. I have to thank the village head Zongheng and the blacksmith brother." Huangfu Chaobo laughed.
It didn't take long for the blacksmith workshop to be built, and Huangfu Chaobo quickly asked someone to bring over the ordinary iron and low-quality iron from the village. As soon as the blacksmith entered the workshop, he immediately entered the state, and immediately took out all the tools he brought, and then asked Henry Zhang for ten units of stone, and picked some soil from outside the village, and after the water was mixed into mud, then The mud was used to build stones into a furnace for blacksmithing. After the stove was built, a small fire was lit inside the stove. According to An, the stove must be dried before it can be used. While the stove was heating, the blacksmith did not wait around. Instead, he brought a large vat to the canteen of the village, and asked someone to fill the vat with water from the Shuangzan River. According to him, the water is used for quenching. In this way, I have been busy all afternoon, and the carpenter and several villagers are helping me to complete all the preparations. After dinner, the blacksmith started working non-stop, and with the help of the carpenter,
The two of them worked until midnight, and finally turned 56 kilograms of low-quality iron into iron plows. After wasting more than ten kilograms of iron, they made a total of 40 pairs of iron-covered wood plows. Now there are only 60 ordinary villagers. There are 10 more pairs for two people. As for the iron that Huangfu had stored in Chaobo for a few days, there were only 20 catties of ordinary iron and 12 catties of high-quality iron left.
The next day was February 1, 182, the game time. The sky had just dawned, and the first plowing climax was ushered in in the entire "Contest of Hegemony".
Last month, because the players were not familiar with the rules of the game, many villages failed to reclaim as much farmland as possible because they missed the farming season. As a result, there was a shortage of food at the end of the month, and the whole month was very tight. The villagers did not dare to recruit enough, and neither did they dare to recruit soldiers. This time the village chiefs have all learned their lesson, and they can't wait to jump into the field to dig the soil and cultivate the field.
The forums are full of "top-secret experience-cultivating land is the ultimate road to the hegemony of the Three Kingdoms", "On how the top ten villages in the world are made - a comparison of the number of farmers and farmland in the top ten villages", " Grain—Comparison of Rice, Wheat, and Chestnut”, “On how to give full play to their respective farming advantages under different climatic conditions in the North and the South”, “Locust Plague, Rat Disaster, Plague, Drought and Flood, Grain Thieves, and Military Rebellion——The Rise of Agricultural Overlords The six natural enemies on the road"...
If there is still that village chief who doesn't know how to farm, he will be ridiculed as a game idiot.
Players who are idle and bored are arguing under the game, and there are more than ten pages of the battle forum that can be excited about the difference between a data. The village chiefs in the game didn't have so much time to talk about it. They were already busy running around, running all over the field, practicing and researching it themselves.
At the entrance of Luoshen Village, Huangfu Chaobo, Zhang Xuan, and two elders assembled a team of 60 NPC farmers before dawn. Even the blacksmith and carpenter only slept for half the night and rushed early coming.
Seeing the sun emerging from the eastern horizon, Huangfu Chaobo shouted excitedly: "It's plowing——, all of you!"
Under the command of Henry Zhang, the army of NPC farmers immediately waved their hoes and began to fight for the future of the small village in full swing.
As for the players, they are not in the mood to level up anymore. It's rare to see such a lively scene of land reclamation. This day is a day off, let's watch the busy farming. Although Huangfu Chaobo came out of the countryside, the current agriculture is all mechanized operations. Where can I see such primitive farming methods? At present, several people were holding an idle iron plow and watching the villagers start to plow the fields. There were 60 villagers in groups of two, one person was pulling the iron plow with a long rope, and the other was supporting it in the back, operating in an orderly manner. Looking behind the villagers, one after another turned Tian Long stretched straight into the distance. After a few people looked at it for a while, they felt that it was not a problem. Huangfu Chaobo yelled: "Go, Lao Du, let's try it too..." After speaking, he took an iron plow and walked to a place without opening it. In the past field, seeing this, Dures immediately walked over, took the rope from Huangfu Chaobo, and walked forward with the iron plow like the villagers did. Before he had gone two steps, Zhang An came over and said, "Master, you can't do this. If the plowing is too shallow, the crops in the field will not grow well. You should press the plow tighter, son, so that the ground will be deep enough." He said, pressing down tightly on the iron plow in Huangfu Chaobo's hand. As soon as he pressed down, Dures immediately yelled: "Old Zhang, you have pressed the plow too deeply, I can't pull it at all..."
The 5-day busy farming period passed in a busy way. During these five days, three refugees from Luoshen also came to vote every day. By the 6th, the population of Luoshen Village had increased to 75 people. After five days, Luoshen Village had cultivated a total of 207 mu of farmland. Calculated at 65 catties per mu, 13,455 catties of grain can be harvested by the end of the month, which seems like a lot. But if Zhongcun is full, there are 500 villagers, and the food consumed in a month will be 15,000 catties, and at the end of the month, the system will definitely have to move a little bit. Whether it can collect so much is still a problem.
Now at the end of last month, nearly 200,000 villages were almost fully recruited. In addition, most villages are equipped with iron plows, so the number of farmland is basically the same for everyone. Zongheng Village, for example, now has 95 farmers, and this month only has nearly 80 mu more farmland than Luoshen Village. On the surface, the strengths of the two villages should not differ much, but in fact, the quality of craftsmen, the number and overall level of players, and the types and quantities of buildings in the village are all far behind in Luoshen.
As soon as the land reclamation campaign ended at the beginning of the month, the re-ranking of the official website also came out. The top positions basically remained unchanged, but Zongheng Village jumped up a few places with the help of Huangfu Chaobo.
Village leaderboard:
Ye Laixiang Village Chief Ye Laixiang, the No. 1 Village in the World, 98 villagers in Xiapi, Xuzhou Comprehensive strength 1128
Huangjin Village, the second village in the world, the head of Huangjin Village, Huangjin Village, Jizhou Julu Village, the overall strength of 96 people is 1125

Huangfu Chaobo checked the ranking of his village again, and was taken aback by that number:
Luoshen Village ranks 85086. The village head, Huangfu Chaobo, has 75 villagers in Yingchuan, Yuzhou. The overall strength is 398.
Dark horse, it went from more than 300,000 to more than 85,000 in a few days. It might be less than 10,000 by the beginning of next month, Huangfu Chaobo wondered in his heart. However, the overall strength is still too poor, only a little more than one-third of the top ten. It is estimated that the dozen or so taels of silver in his pocket have played a big role.
After wandering around the forum, Huangfu Chaobo returned to the game. The situation in the village is slowly getting on the right track, but there are more and more things, such as the deployment of personnel, the accumulation of various materials, the establishment of the directly subordinate army and the arrangement of equipment, etc., all kinds of things make Huangfu Chaobo feel headache, Fortunately, he only needs to be sure of the direction, and Henry Zhang is still doing the specific things, otherwise, just these things will make him dizzy.
The construction of the martial arts hall started after the grain growing, and it seems that it will be completed soon.
