Chapter 574: Do Your Best!
It's hard for Lindsay to describe how she feels now.
These Green Swamp scouts actually know all about the gold, silver, copper, and iron deposits!
And they were willing to hand over the information!
For Lindsay, this kind of thing is like swatting a mosquito to death at night, and it turns out that this thing happens to be the most advanced bionic reconnaissance aircraft!
But come all come.
There is no reason not to accept the gift that comes to your door.
Lindsay then opened the map and asked the perceiver in the cage:
"Since you know, tell me all these places."
"By the way, the environment around the mine is also explained in as much detail as possible."
Be more cautious than Green Swamp and Snake King.
The perceiver in the cage has very low sensitivity to minerals. Lindsay just opened his mouth and he answered decisively:
"With Yarrow Camp as the center, a month's walk to the west, there is an iron ore mine that existed decades ago. It is controlled by a human tribe, and the leader is a fourth-stage awakened person."
"Going to the northwest, further away, about a month and a half away, there is also an iron mine. However, the number of people occupying it is smaller, and the leader is only a third-stage guy."
Lindsay didn't want to show her eagerness, so she listened quietly to the other person's story.
Among the various minerals, Perceptors value iron ore the most.
He named the locations of five iron mines, and then began to recall the three mineral deposits: gold, silver, and copper.
"Further back...well, gold mine."
"The bug is entrenched behind the mountainous area. There is a gold mine in the mountain about 5 days away. However, the mountain roads there are rugged and the environment is steep. It is very difficult to develop, so no one has occupied it. The next gold mine is to the southwest. direction, but it’s very far there, at least three months’ journey…”
Lindsay wrote down these locations one by one, and also asked the local forces stationed at each mine.
In today's wasteland, iron ore and copper are the most popular.
Although a few gold mines are occupied by people, most of them will be abandoned.
When civilization is destroyed to a certain extent, gold, which should theoretically maintain its value in troubled times, even loses its value.
After asking about the situation.
Lindsay put away the map and the notes she had taken, and turned back to the house.
With this information, the plan he will prepare next is much more complicated than when he just came back.
Herod followed him in a wheelchair, and the writer girl looked curious:
"Lindsay, now that the news is over, what are you going to do with them?"
Lindsay replied without hesitation:
"Lock him up first."
"Exerting favors blindly is definitely not a way to govern a city. Having these examples in prison should serve as a reminder to people."
Lindsay went back inside and opened the map.
He definitely couldn't know this thing by himself, so he had to take out ordinary paper maps and prepare several copies for the citizens who would carry out the work in the future.
"First of all, it must be the gold mine, which is the source of construction funds."
Lindsay took out a pen and paper and pointed out the locations of several gold mines.
Among all the targets to be selected, the gold mine in the mountainous area of the insect tribe became Lindsay's first choice.
His skills can easily open roads in the mountains.
Problems on the terrain can be solved quickly, not to mention benefits such as concealment and friendly assistance.
If the subsequent gold mine is successfully mined and transported back continuously, corresponding gold coins can be minted. At that time, a large number of secondary buildings will be unlocked, and the development of the territory will immediately advance by leaps and bounds for a period of time.
But other than that.
There is another mineral that is also an important target.
"iron ore."
The tip of the pen in Lindsay's hand stopped due west.
Iron ore and copper ore are both materials for making tools or weapons, so they are especially important in the wasteland. The iron mine closest to the banyan forest, a month's journey away, is also being occupied.
"Deal? Negotiate? Or... go to war?"
Many thoughts came to mind, and Lindsay felt that there was nothing she could do.
The treatment of the insect tribe involves the hope of a second base, which requires him to lead a team; the planning of building a three-dimensional city also requires Lindsay himself, who has architectural knowledge; coupled with the development of iron ore and gold mines, he always It's impossible for one person to divide into three and do it at the same time.
"But these tasks are all important and urgent right now, and none of them can be missing."
Lindsay frowned, and Herod next to her spoke:
"Lindsay, haven't you ever thought of letting your subordinates do the work?"
Lindsay subconsciously refused:
"How is it possible? They have only received training not long ago..."
Lindsay's voice suddenly stopped.
Leaving aside other more troublesome tasks, this iron mine, which is only a month away from the banyan forest, is really an opportunity!
At this distance between the two camps, each other should have heard more or less about the situation in the banyan forest.
It just so happened that Hammer had also trained a team of messengers.
If envoys are sent there, this is an opportunity to practice their diplomatic skills. As for the safety of the envoys...
"Soldiers trained in the territory will have to engage in actual combat sooner or later. It is also beneficial to be exposed to tasks early."
Lindsay had an idea, and Herod started teasing next to her:
"How's it going? Have you figured it out?"
After thinking through her thoughts, Lindsay looked back at the writer girl:
"Figured out."
"And don't worry, isn't it said that there are fewer students in the university recently? I will assign you a new task now."
"Huh?"
Hilde looked confused. She was caught by Lindsay and brought to the table. Then she saw a drawing spread out in front of her.
The writer girl took a look and immediately recognized what it was:
"Is this the city planning map you have been studying recently?"
"It's just a preliminary draft." Lindsay explained, "Next I plan to lead the team to the insect tribe to manage the relationship. So, Hilde, about the city construction plan - as an artist of the Seven Seas Alliance, you at least know some architectural design, right?"
Hilde realized her next job.
Her face froze, and the madness in her wine-red eyes immediately faded:
"I, I understand! But my main job is a writer."
Lindsay didn't care about these, he just continued to ask calmly:
"Can you draw?"
"..."
"Yes."
After a few seconds of silence, Hilde admitted that she had such ability.
But then she made another request:
"Lindsay, I can certainly handle this kind of work. But can I go with you to the nests of those insects? You see - I can also handle work like drawing blueprints on the way."
Lindsay pointed out the window.
Hilde looked in the corresponding direction, and the towering stone dome of the university immediately came into view.
The girl stared blankly at the very familiar building, and then heard Lindsay's decision:
"Even if fewer people go to the university, your teaching cannot be interrupted."
"Didn't you say before that you were willing to be punished? Then stay in the base and do your best!"
