Chapter 124: Transportation and Agricultural Areas

Pack animals, a kind of gentle beasts similar to wild cattle, have been pulling four-wheeled carts in the territory in shifts, traveling back and forth in the territory according to the time of mechanical clocks.

Together with the two pack animals originally in the territory, there are a total of 17 pack animals, and every two pack animals can pull a four-wheeled carriage for transportation.

Ji Lin simply paid more money to buy another pack animal from Fang Ai, and exchanged the frightening amount of fish caught in the territory from her hands.

Now the territory has nine shifts of pack animal transport vehicles, and the carrying capacity of the pack animal transport vehicles is about 2 tons, which greatly alleviates the transportation pressure of the territory.

At least now the people in the territory no longer have to use multiple people to pull carts to carry wood or bagged hulled rice back and forth.

In terms of the fishermen's catch, it is still the bonus period of new fishing, and every day they return with a full load.

There are too many fish caught, and Ji Lin has allowed the fishermen to use fresh sea salt from the salt field under the supervision of the militia.

The fish with stronger vitality were placed in the large pool of the fishing port to swim freely, and they were allowed to live for two more days. The remaining fish with weak vitality (not strong enough to survive) would be sent for pickling.

The fish population would also decrease with the fishing, and we should not waste food just because the current production is high.

In addition to fish, the territory is not without seafood, such as some octopuses that were lucky enough to hit the net.

These octopuses, these rare seafood, had no chance to be put into the pool. It was not good to put them in. The small space was surrounded by dense schools of fish. They were either taken to the market by Ji Lin to be converted into foreign exchange, or turned into a snack for tonight by the chefs.

Cause of death: rare.

If the chefs in the territory were still the original batch, their cooking skills would be OK for ordinary food, but these fish from the shallow sea were quite troublesome for them to handle.

The people in the territory were all farmers from the inland.

At this time, it was the turn of the new chefs to show their abilities. They were experienced and were all serious chefs.

And the others became assistants to these chefs.

The experience from mature civilizations was spread to the people in the work.

Ji Lin paid a lot of money, and these foreign chefs did not skimp and did not hide tricks in front of the assistants Ji Lin sent to them.

If they hid tricks, they could not even complete the daily food supply.

Only occasionally did they report through Chongshan that it was too troublesome to lead these newcomers, and sometimes they were in the way and the workload was too high. After Ji Lin raised their salaries by 40%, such voices never appeared again.

Forty-five people plus some children who helped in the kitchen were responsible for the meals of nearly four thousand people, without rest for a whole month.

After these chefs came to the territory, they found that the workload was even greater than they thought, so Ji Lin also felt that it was not excessive to increase the salary of these 15 chefs by 40%, and he still had this little money. From 2 gold/month to 2.8 gold/month, the only requirement was to guide these chef apprentices more when they were free.

Since the money was in place, these chefs also accepted it.

There was no way, Ji Lin gave too much.

"Hey, is this the place?"

The light-colored elf shook her hair and followed Ji Lin.

They did not take the pack animal bus, which was used to transport goods. They walked along the long stone road to the agricultural area.

The elf lady carried her big backpack and stared at the dark green fields that stretched into a line.

She had actually made plans for the territory to be not very rich, and looking at the fields, even with her experience of traveling to many city-states, this dark green field was considered to be very well taken care of among her many experiences.

That was the breath of life.

The vitality of this land was awakened and activated.

The breeze brushed across the elf lady's cheek, and she hummed an unknown little song in a particularly pleasant voice.

"No, we have to go further."

Ji Lin shook his head and his eyes fell on the front of the road.

There is still a way to go to the church of the goddess of life.

"Hey, Lord, how many plants have you planted here?"

This is the first time that Forna called him Lord.

"It should be more than 4,000 acres, and many crops are planted." Ji Lin recalled: "I heard that elves have special skills for planting crops. Is it true?"

"Of course! I don't know about other elves, but in order to take care of this tree species, I have learned all kinds of plant planting and care methods."

The elf lady patted her barren chest, but did not notice Ji Lin's deep thought.

I have learned all kinds of plant planting and care methods...

It just so happens that the hero units in my territory have been used up...Thinking

Ji Lin's eyes fell on Fuerwei. Just now, he was finally able to see her data.

Undoubtedly a hero unit.

[Fuerna]

[Level 4 (Tree Guardian)]

[The recipient of the world tree: the growth rate of plants in the managed area +5%. The world tree chose this child and gave her some of its own power, but she may not know anything yet. ]

[Stealth Ranger: The success rate of stealth behavior is greatly improved. Elves have an indescribable talent for agility and stealth, and she is the best among them. 】

【Energetic: Energy and physical strength recovery speed +100%. Miss Elf has a lot of energy, and with the blessing of the World Tree, her energy is almost inexhaustible. 】

【Unorthodox Agricultural Expert: Plant output +5%, management cost +1%. Miss Elf always has some wonderful ideas, but they don't always have good results. 】

[Hidden, increase loyalty to unlock]

Level 4 hero unit...

This kid, maybe he can help him with his work.

He was full of energy, which reminded him of Chang Heng's Unbreakable. Why couldn't the system give each of his hero units an Unbreakable, so that his workload could be reduced by 30%.

Ji Lin's eyes fell on the wheat that had begun to form ears on the roadside. The small green grains hung on the ear branches, and the straight wheat stalks had not yet been bent down.

Swaying gently in the wind.

After the breeze swept through the entire dark green wheat field, a rustling sound of branches and leaves rubbing against each other was heard. The people who were leaning over to work in the wheat field also stood up to enjoy the rare cool breeze. They all wore straw hats woven from wheat stalks and rice stalks on their heads.

This was a new fashion in the territory. Ji Lin found that this kind of straw hat had spread in the territory without knowing when.

After the last season's wheat harvest in the territory, there were quite a lot of wheat stalks left, as well as rice stalks and rice leaves left over from collecting natural rice. The people in the territory used their spare time and nighttime hours to weave straw hats with these materials, and shared them with their neighbors after weaving.

This made the farmers more comfortable when working during the day.

Even Chongshan and Li Erlang wore this rough straw hat.

It was given to them by the people in the territory.

They were not fishermen and could not go to the sea to catch fish. Farmers also had their own wisdom.
