Chapter 233 Reform Ideas, Hunting and Upgrading (8,000 Words on the Day)

Zong Shen let go of his hand and turned away without hesitation.

Just a few steps away, the loud voice of the dwarf uncle came from behind.

"My lord, I will fix this combat puppet within three days!"

Zong Shen waved his hand to the rear, indicating that he understood, and then walked straight to the residential area on the side. The two of them were in a hurry just now, and he still had something to hand to Mariel.

At this time, Mariel was chatting with San Fatty, and there were farmers of men and women sitting nearby.

The ratio of male to female farmers in the territory is about two to one. This ratio is not too balanced, but there are not many people now, so there is no need to consider the issue of pairing farmers to form a family.

But when the population is large, this problem needs to be dealt with seriously.

As soon as Zong Shen walked to their side, the farmers stood up and saluted, showing great respect to him.

Zong Shen waved his hand, motioning them all to sit down, and then came to Mariel's side.

He took out a large stack of books, a total of six books, all of which were obtained by Zong Shen during this period.

Including "Herbal Science Expo", "March Strategy", "The Lord's Confession", etc., you only need to complete the reading for the specified time to get a certain attribute improvement or master some blueprints and skills.

This is true knowledge is power, but unfortunately Zong Shen doesn't have much free time. Apart from rest, he is building or exploring and fighting. Otherwise, it would be good to take time to read.

Zong Shen handed all these books to Mariel for safekeeping. First, she had the talent for reading, and secondly, Mariel could find talents among farmers, and began to consider training her own pharmacists and cooks for the territory.

In this way, various potions and buffing dishes can be made, forming a healthy industrial chain, and treating potions as standard equipment for soldiers to improve the safety of soldiers.

Of course, this is just a plan and assumption, and it may take some time from the preparation work to the final shape.

"Maryl, these books will be handed over to you."

"When you have nothing to do, you can read more books, and we will build our own library in the future."

"We also need to set up schools and popularize education. Everyone has to study to improve themselves, master more living and labor skills, and improve the quality of all citizens."

"In addition, you should pay attention to who is more talented in pharmaceuticals and cooking in the territory, and try to cultivate talented people."

Zong Shen said to Mariel in front of all the farmers.

Learning this kind of thing is almost unimaginable for the average farmer.

Especially in this world where education is not universal.

Only the inhabitants of giant cities and state cities have educational opportunities.

It is almost impossible for villagers and farmers to learn, and the skills they have mastered are only some labor skills that can meet daily life.

For example, farming or herding cattle and sheep, and for example, coastal villagers usually fish, while mountain villagers hunt, such as these basic labor skills.

Just like Erya and Xiaoping, who are in charge of the farmland in the territory, these two peasant women are very good at cultivating the land.

It's just that with more complex tasks and skills, farmers can only stare blankly.

Among them, there are also some potential stocks among farmers, Zong Shen once observed.

With every day's labor, there are individual farmers whose qualifications have improved a notch.

There are also some farmers whose qualifications are indeed better. For example, San Fatty is a very smart guy. He is very quick in both work and errands. There is also a farmer named Ruiou who was recruited from Sitano Village before. It belongs to the green good qualification.

This shows that farmers still have the value of cultivation, and farmers can indeed serve as the population cornerstone for the long-term development of the territory.

In the short term, it relies on recruitment and plundering, but in the long term, it still requires the development of cities and the reproduction of the population.

In the future, the territory will need to be reformed in all aspects.

Regarding the reform of the territory, Zong Shen actually had a rough idea long ago

First of all, the territory needs to accumulate a certain basic population, and the second is to attract the circulation of enough foreign personnel. The circulation of personnel can not only bring various news, but also bring a lot of materials and wealth.

Only when the territory expands its influence and increases its communication with the outside world can it rapidly accumulate wealth.

It is like Sitano Village, because a large number of businessmen often come to Sitano Village to purchase agricultural and sideline products such as cattle and sheep grain, cowhide and sheepskin.

In the end, it became a relatively large and populous village in the surrounding area.

And because of the prominent cattle and sheep industry, many villagers have chosen to raise cattle to make money.

The circulation of the economy and the emergence of demand promote the development of the industry and ultimately feed a large number of people.

In addition, a wage system needs to be established within the territory, so that farmers and soldiers can enter the stage of paid labor.

For example, meals and accommodation need to pay a certain fee to the territory, and the remaining salary can be used to purchase private property, forming an economic cycle and wealth accumulation.

Zongshen can also sell land and seeds, calves, and lambs at low prices, encouraging farmers to take the initiative to open up wasteland in designated areas around the territory for farming and breeding.

The harvested products can be sold by farmers in the territory, and those that cannot be sold will be purchased from the territory, forming a cycle of output and income, absorbing wealth into the territory like a snowball, which can greatly improve farmers. their production enthusiasm.

In addition to the economic aspect, there were other formalized reforms, including the separation of classes, military and civilians, and the implementation of the military merit system.

The territory should not only become a trade center for the aborigines in the region, but also a commercial center among the regional lords.

Rome was by no means built in a day, and it took a lot of water mill work to run it.

At least for now, Zong Shen needs to firmly grasp the general direction and start to plan step by step to gradually lay the foundation for future normalized development.

So what Zong Shen explained to Mariel is also an important opportunity for these farmers.

Being able to become a cook or a pharmacist is a complete self-improvement for these farmers, and more importantly, they can master a more valuable skill.

Mariel took these books solemnly, and she already knew Zong Shen's intended goal in her heart.

From the moment she joined the territory, she deeply understood where the gap between the territory and the villages and towns was at present. With a goal, she should move forward bravely. At the same time, she really needed to use reading to continuously enrich herself and improve her ability.

After Zong Shen's explanation, San Fatty began to distribute the food according to the preparation. In addition to the barbecue, each person also received half an apple, half a hard-boiled egg, and some boiled vegetables.

Most of these foods were purchased by Zong Shen from Sitano Village.

Everyone was given the same food, and the food for the front was sent by Colby with a team of wolves.

This distribution system seems fair, but in fact it is the biggest injustice.

Everyone in the territory has different contributions, but they can enjoy the same food, but Zong Shen did not choose to divide the food into three, five and nine.

Because no matter which of these two approaches, it is one of the reasons for the contradiction and contradiction.

Because of this, it is even more necessary to get the territory on the right track as soon as possible.

It is a pity that the buildings of the cold storage and the bathhouse cannot be constructed due to the lack of runes of the corresponding attributes. These two buildings are buildings with high practicality.

The cold storage can prolong the preservation time of fresh ingredients, and the bathhouse can solve the cleaning problem of the residents at this stage.

Thinking of this, Zong Shen added another task to Mariel, asking her to go to the [Market] to collect all kinds of rune materials at suitable prices from tomorrow.

As for how to measure the purchase price, she needs to observe and summarize the market situation in the [market] to judge. The market is the best teacher and the best price maker.

After all the things that should be explained, Zong Shen also ate his own portion of food. This kind of simple food is somewhat bland, but Zong Shen doesn't mind. For him, as long as he can fill his stomach Stomach will do.

It was already nighttime, and Zong Shen also had plans for tonight.

After the soldiers of the expedition team rest for a while, he will start the night hunting tonight.

Clean up the monsters around the territory and the crypt front line, and by the way, level up to earn some points.

At the same time, Favid also accumulated some killing points, and he himself took the opportunity to extract some more power.

During the day, the expedition team only focused on upgrading Mariel, and did not specifically help them to spawn monsters.

But even so, they have accumulated a small half, and they will be almost full as long as they kill one more round at night.

At that time, Zong Shen can increase his strength by 1 point, and Favid can directly consume the upper limit of 1000 killing points to summon a lv35 hell double-headed dog.

For the two of them, when they go out to hunt monsters, as long as they kill them, they earn money. The more they kill, the stronger they become.

After resting for an hour, Zong Shen began to gather the soldiers of the exploration team.

At the same time, in order to increase the hunting efficiency, Zong Shen called for a team of wolf riders.

They were originally a mobile team, sometimes patrolling the territory, sometimes supporting the front line, and sometimes assisting in exploration, and they would run wherever they were needed.

The remaining 21 wolf cavalry patrol the territory on a regular basis.

It's a pity that the third team is still short of three wolf cavalrymen to form, otherwise it would be a good patrol configuration to have the second team and the third team take turns to patrol.

After all, wolf cavalry can activate team skills as long as they form a team of twelve, and their combat effectiveness is much higher than that of skirmishers.

After all the members had arrived, Zong Shen began to officially set off with the two teams.

Still start from the periphery of the territory, take the territory as the center, and start walking from one kilometer of the territory to hunt crypt monsters.

Gradually clean up to within three kilometers of the territory.

Clear all crypt monsters in this area.

It took more than an hour to hunt down a total of more than a thousand monsters. Because of the assistance of the first team of wolf riders, the hunting efficiency this time was quite impressive.

Zong Shen also killed a lot of crypt monsters during this period, many of which were elite fang worms.

He can get 1 extraction point for killing a whiteboard monster, 5 points for killing an elite monster, and 25 points for a captain-level monster, and the extraction value increases by 5 times for each rank.

It's just that the captain-level gargoyle is a flying monster, and Zong Shen's attack method is mainly melee, which makes him very uncomfortable.

That is the naked extraction value!

Faved's killing points are accumulating very quickly. During the day and night hunting, he has accumulated more than 600 killing points, and there are only more than 300 points left before the full value.

If you work hard tonight, you should be able to collect 1000 killing points and summon a double-headed hellhound.

However, Zong Shen was not completely without gains. He rose by one level and finally made his level reach level 20.

In addition to the points that have not been assigned before, he now has a total of 2 assignable attribute points and 2 assignable skill points.

The higher the level, the higher the experience points required to level up, and the speed of leveling up will only get slower and slower.

Zong Shen added 1 attribute point to intelligence, raising the intelligence to 30 points, and the assignable skill points also increased to 3 points accordingly.

Then, he added the remaining 1 point to strength, making the strength 68 points, and the upper limit of life value also increased to 1163 points, and the increase in strength also slightly increased some attack damage.

Among the 3 assignable skill points, he added 2 [Captive Management] and 1 [Item Management].

After activating [Prisoner Management], he discovered that this passive skill actually has another mystery. Each level 1 lord system will provide 5 portable prisoner storage locations, just like storage compartments, which can easily accommodate prisoners.

In some cases, this feature can indeed have unexpected effects.

It's just that this skill has been ignored by Zong Shen before.

After the upgrade is complete, after adding attribute points and skill points, Zong Shen is stronger than before.

Compared with when he first landed, even if he didn't turn on the demon state, he could easily hang dozens of him when he first landed. This is an improvement in strength.

With every day's accumulation, Zong Shen's progress and changes can still be clearly seen.

After everyone finished solving the crypt monsters around the territory, they headed towards the crypt front line.

At noon today, when the Crypt Challenge started for 72 hours, the crypt monsters of level 4 strength were officially started.

The difficulty of killing high-intensity monsters is slightly higher than before.

Mainly, it is more uncomfortable to mix the crypt monsters of various difficulties.

It's hard to find a steady rhythm and keep killing monsters.

The last zombie could have been hacked to death with two slashes, but the next one came with a higher strength, and it might take three slashes to solve it.

Even so, they still couldn't stop Zong Shen and the others from hunting.

Moving forward quickly, they soon reached the crypt front.

After Zong Shen's strengthening of the front-line defense and the professional grouping of the warriors, the front line of the crypt is obviously more stable than before.
