Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing From a Rundown Yard

Chapter 415 The Visit of Mr. Mars, the Ranch Plan 【Subscription】

The purpose of Zong Shen's exchange for farmers with rare talents is to reserve talents.

Except for blacksmith apprentices now.

"Cooking Handbook" and "Introduction to Pharmacy" were also distributed.

Farmers with rare talent are smart, and most importantly, they are literate.

This provides the basis for self-directed learning.

Erya and Xiaoping, who were originally responsible for taking care of the farmland, are also studying.

They studied "Introduction to Farming", but because they were illiterate.

So these two days, I have been learning to read from other farmers with rare talent.

The growth potential of these illiterates is much lower.

Even if there are books for them to learn, it takes more effort than others to grow up.

On the whole, the talent development plan of the territory is in full swing.

This is a good trend and a good sign.

Luna took the [Fire Ginger Candy] and nodded obediently.

Her beast-riding partner, Sentinel Black Panther Murray was in the corner beside him, dozing comfortably.

Luna stepped forward, reached out and patted the black panther on the head.

He led the black panther to the kitchen.

To others, the Sentinel Panther is a fearsome beast of the jungle.

But for Luna, Murray the Panther is a docile big cat.

As for Vereesa, she silently returned to the terrace on the fourth floor by herself.

The cold outside did not make her feel uncomfortable, on the contrary, she still enjoyed the time alone in the snow.

Zong Shen watched Vereesa go upstairs silently.

Every step of the plump body is a landscape.

But he didn't appreciate it.

Anyone can see Vereesa's melancholy.

After she was recruited by Zong Shen from the [Natural Altar].

Most of the time, she was not very happy.

It seemed to her that the world had completely lost its color.

All things are meaningless.

Not only Zong Shen could clearly feel this melancholy, but almost everyone in the territory could feel it.

In addition to giving orders to the combat team, Vereesa rarely communicated with other people in the territory.

The person who communicates the most is Luna.

Zong Shen often sees Luna pulling Vereesa and chatting quietly.

In addition to her melancholy, Zong Shen has an awkward relationship with her.

In a relationship that is neither close, nor distant.

The most embarrassing thing is that when two people are alone, there is always an ambiguous feeling.

Vereesa's husband, Ronin, died in the Dimensional War.

So Vereesa is now a widowed widow.

This made Zong Shen wonder in his heart, should Veresa be taken away?

Otherwise, seeing her so depressed and unhappy every day is really unbearable.

There is a man who takes care of her, fills her emptiness, and may be able to bring her out of her blues.

Zong Shen stood there, looking slightly distracted in the direction of the stairs.

After regaining his senses, he gently shook his head and stepped out of the lord's small building.

Opening the door, cold air blows in.

Take a breath and just feel refreshed.

The heavy snow has almost stopped, and only the sparse snow particles are still drifting away.

The thickness of the snow has reached nearly fifty centimeters.

Nearly bent over the knee.

Zong Shen walked out of the lord's courtyard with one foot deep and one foot shallow in the snow.

He took out the weight-bearer mecha and drove towards the east of the territory.

Visibility has improved a lot after the snow was reduced.

When Zong Shen traveled two or three kilometers, he joined the carriage team that Veresa said.

The convoy consisted of eight carriages in total, all of which were large transport carriages.

Each transport wagon is driven by two steppe horses.

The first three carriages are closed, and the last five are wooden fences.

When Zong Shen stopped in front of them with a load-bearing mecha.

The entire convoy also stopped.

In the first carriage, a chubby figure opened the tent and jumped out of the carriage with a smile on his face.

He walked quickly towards Zong Shen.

Now Zong Shenke can understand why the defense matrix of the territory will not attack the convoy.

Because it was Master Mars.

Mariel's father.

During this time, his favorability for Zong Shen also reached 65 points.

The arrow tower in the territory has already counted him as an ally.

At this time, Master Mars looked at Zong Shen with a smile on his face.

He came here this time, not originally to find Zong Shen.

Instead, he came to fulfill the previous agreement and invested in the construction of a large-scale ranch here.

At the same time, he also brought a few familiar travel business friends.

Let them include it in the traveler's itinerary in the future.

Finally, look at his lovely daughter, little Mariel.

But I didn't expect to meet Zong Shen as soon as I came here!

Being able to see Zong Shen at this moment means that he has returned from Bosbang.

Then the wealth left by his parents...

Thinking of this, Master Mars' eyes looking at Zong Shen became more and more frantic.

He opened his arms and gave Zong Shen a hug.

Seeing such an enthusiastic Master Mars, Zong Shen felt goosebumps.

After the two of them hugged gently, Zong Shen hurriedly came and slid away from each other.

Only then did Master Mars notice that Zong Shen's dress was not quite right.

"Master Zong, why are you wearing such thick fur?"

"The style is pretty good."

"But isn't it hot when you wear so thick this weather?"

Mars said with a smile, and his expression suddenly froze as he spoke.

"what?"

"Why does this fur coat look familiar?"

"It's a bit like the bearskin coat I keep in my collection..."

"Cough cough..."

At this time, Zong Shen coughed awkwardly.

"Master Mars, this trip to Bosbon, I will not disgrace my mission."

"Successfully brought back what your parents left behind."

"Let's go into the house and talk later."

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Master Mars' heart flew farther.

He couldn't even think about why Zong Shen was wearing a fur coat.

As long as he thinks of the wealth left by his father, his whole body trembles with excitement.

Although he didn't know how much money his parents left behind.

But certainly not a small sum.

Even if he only got half of it, it would be better than the many years of his business in Sitano Village.

"Okay, let's go into the house and talk..."

"By the way, I came here this time and brought another batch of grassland cattle."

"All cows with calves."

"In addition, I also brought several friends who are active in the vicinity of travel businessmen all the year round."

"This is our previous agreement."

Master Mars winked at him and said.

According to the previous agreement, there is indeed such a thing.

At that time, it was said that a large ranch was built in Zongshen's territory by Mr. Mars.

As the host, Zong Shen only needs to provide the venue and ensure the safety of the ranch.

Master Mars will pay an annual contribution and 10% of the ranch's return.

At the same time, we will also introduce a few teams of tourists.

"Okay, everyone, come with me."

"Master Mars, just sit on it with me."

Zong Shen nodded and pointed to the weight-bearer mecha that he drove.

Of course Master Mars would not have an opinion.

Watching Zong Shen walk towards the weight-bearer mecha, he felt that his walking posture was a bit strange.

At this time, Zong Shen was even more uncomfortable.

He strode hard, trying to minimize the impact of the snow on his posture.

Because the aboriginal people can't see the winter challenge.

So he can't act too weird.

Wearing a fur coat can also be attributed to a personal quirk.

If there are too many feet exposed, it will not end well.

In line with the principle of sailing carefully for ten thousand years, there is no benefit and I will not wave.

Zong Shen once again entered the drama mode.

Finally got on the weight-bearer mecha and patted the vacant seat next to the driver's seat.

He motioned to Mr. Mars to get in the car quickly.

Don't look at his fat body, but his movements are very vigorous.

Three to five and two to sit in the passenger seat.

Looking at the driver's seat with curious eyes.

Goblin Fel Mechas of this type are unusual.

There is something similar in the giant city.

But it's not a mainstream vehicle.

Zong Shen activated the weight-bearer mecha and turned the body.

Rolling over the passage that was opened when he came, he drove towards the central area.

It's a slightly contradictory feeling.

He and Master Mars are obviously in the same world.

Able to communicate, hug, shake hands.

experience a completely different climate.

But no matter how embarrassed it was, Zong Shen could only bite the bullet and continue.

Anyway, Master Mars doesn't have much power.

The level of those wandering business leaders is not too high.

Tourists are also divided into three, five, nine and so on.

Like this kind of team of traveling merchants based on village-level units or even settlements.

The scale and grade are not too high.

After seeing the prosperity of Bangcheng, Zong Shen's vision also improved a lot.

Naturally, these people will not be taken seriously.

However, this is always a way to increase the activity and communication of the territory.

Although he didn't have high hopes for this, he wouldn't shut them out because of it.

Zong Shen drove the load-bearing mecha from the east to the northwest.

Prepare to take them to the farming and pastoral areas in one step.

Finalize the building location of the large ranch.

Along the way, Master Mars was watching the changes in his territory in amazement.

Compared with when he came back to the territory, the biggest difference is that the stalls here are bigger.

Buildings are listed in various locations.

There is also a large amount of spare land reserved.

Even a simple rammed road was built.

It seems that Zong Shen did not lie to him, this is obviously to build the territory according to the standards of the state.

And these changes all happened in less than a week.

The only difference is that this time the territory seems to have become depressed.

For several kilometers along the way, I didn't see anyone else.

It took about ten minutes for Zong Shen to bring the convoy to the farming and pastoral area in the northwest.

"Master Mars, this is the future farming and pastoral area."

"You can choose any piece of land on both sides of the planned path."

Zong Shen stopped the weight-bearer mecha, waved his hand, and said very boldly.

Master Mars looked at the large open space and didn't know what to say for a while.

Especially when he saw the small ranch surrounded on all sides.

He opened his mouth in surprise.

Zong Shen's territory gave him a feeling of being normal, but not normal.

At least he couldn't understand the operation of enclosing the ranch with a wooden city wall.

And he does not have the concept of the lord's territory.

To him, the large tracts of land around here are unclaimed wilderness.

So he thought what Zong Shen said was a bit funny.

The differences and generation gaps between the lords and the aborigines were thoroughly exposed at this moment.

He glanced at it, and just randomly delineated a square area about one kilometer long and wide on the side of the compacted road.

For the aboriginal people, building pastures is not very important.

Just drive four stakes at four points.

Then insert the fence strips at a distance of one meter, and nail them horizontally with wooden boards at the same time.

The vaguer ones can even be replaced with twine.

It's not too difficult to build a four-kilometer pasture fence.

There are dozens of people, and it takes about four to six days to completely get it.

Of course the fence is only part of the pasture.

Six to eight hay sheds will also need to be built in it.

There is also a need to build a slaughterhouse nearby.

Can do preliminary processing.

The others are of no importance.

If the future prospects are good, a meat food workshop can also be built.

For deep processing, the slaughtered grassland cattle are directly made into air-dried meat, sausages, or other storage-resistant meat products.

Master Mars still has a certain talent for business.

He took his men with flags and wooden rulers and spent less than 20 minutes to determine the scope of the ranch and future development plans.

In fact, Master Mars has no other requirements for Zong Shen.

It is enough to ensure the safety of the pasture.

In the village of Sitano, his ranch was repeatedly looted by rogues and bandits.

There are also many sneaky cattle thieves.

In the second half of the night, there will always be some nasty guys who take the opportunity to destroy the fence and steal the grassland cattle.

Neither the armed militias of the village guard nor the night watchmen employed by Mars could completely prevent the loss of the ranch.

Every year, the grassland cattle that are stolen and robbed can reach more than 15% of the total number of slaughtered in that year.

Therefore, his choice to invest in the ranch in Zongshen's territory was not a decision made by his head.

What he saw was the force possessed by Zongshen's territory.

With so many professional fighters sitting in the town, the average rogue bandit has to weigh it.

And there are many tall defensive arrow towers here.

When it comes to raising cattle, he doesn't care about the location.

Anyway, there are large grasslands around here.

Just after a simple weeding, sprinkle a handful of pasture grass seeds.

It doesn't take long to grow pasture.

At the same time, the by-product of raising grassland cattle is cow dung.

Not only can it be fermented to make fertilizer, but it can also be dried as fuel.

In the field of aquaculture, Mr. Mars is a well-deserved master.

Overall, he is still very optimistic about Zong Shen's territory.

He has already made up his mind, if the first batch of grassland cattle is raised smoothly.

In the future, he will relocate all the pastures in Sitano Village.

At the same time, it will also consider introducing a group of dairy cows.

Dig deep into the industry.

Master Mars stood in high spirits.

All minds are devoted to the prospect of the future.
