Chapter 125 Field (Update Completed)
Canals were dug and paved with stones. Clear and subtle currents were diverted from the river and extended into the entire agricultural area, spreading out fractal veins like a spider web, becoming the blood vessels of this land planted with thousands of acres of crops.
This is a scene that cannot be seen from the road. These small canals sunken in the ground are blocked by the prosperous fields.
Only when you walk down the road and enter the fields can you see the water veins and stone canals that are planned to cover every field. This water supply network is the credit of Chongshan and the people. Ji Lin only provided them with the huge amount of resources obtained from the exercise battlefield through their resource use applications.
Infrastructure is really expensive.
Paving roads, agricultural area expansion, and people's livelihood projects.
Each one is a first-class gold-eating monster. If Ji Lin does not build it, or even invests resources in expansion in the short term, it will be more profitable, but Ji Lin knows that he cannot care about the gains and losses of one day or one night. While resources are still sufficient, infrastructure should be rolled out as soon as possible to reap the benefits of infrastructure improvement as soon as possible.
Otherwise, you will have to clean up your own early garbage planning in the later stage, and the energy and resources you have spent... Ji Lin recalled the painful memories of playing various construction games in his previous life.
Infrastructure is the number behind the "^" of growth, and it is a multiplier of production capacity.
With the rich resources of the exercise battlefield and the newly arrived 100 blacksmiths, he has planned to expand from the current 4,000 acres of fertile land to 10,000 acres of fertile land after the autumn harvest, and build along the river to make full use of the terrain advantages.
With iron farm tools, the labor efficiency of the people has more than doubled. The soil that wooden farm tools need to dig several times can be dug by iron farm tools in one go, and it saves a lot of effort just to turn the soil.
The Church of the Goddess of Life, as the only large building nearby, is a relatively large building.
A mechanical clock is also hung here for the people to determine the time.
Wubai had been waiting for him here early, wearing a straw hat like other farmers, chatting with the priestess of the goddess of life.
Wubai no longer looked as dusty as Jilin remembered. He looked energetic in the blue guard uniform, and his expression was more than ten times richer when he spoke.
The priestess of the goddess of life, Leah, also chuckled from time to time, echoing Wubai's words.
After seeing Jilin coming, he said a few words to Leah, and immediately showed a serious and dedicated expression, and stood up from the chair to greet his lord.
"Don't be so reserved, I'm not the kind of guy who doesn't understand human feelings."
Jilin coughed twice, looking at his serious and dedicated face, he was a little uncomfortable.
"How have you been recently?"
"Much better than before, all thanks to the lord."
Wubai touched his head and said from the bottom of his heart.
Life in the territory is indeed ten times better than his previous life, and he has also found a job that can fully prove his own value and is recognized by others.
Wu Bai then reported the recent situation in the agricultural area to Ji Lin.
"Lord, recently the farmers hope to build some temporary resting places next to the agricultural area."
The farmers in the territory often get up at dawn and go out to work. Before noon, when the temperature of the sun is too hot to work, they can go back to rest.
Some people in the territory also work hard and come to take care of it once in the morning and once in the evening.
They return to their residences only when the sun sets.
As the autumn harvest approaches, there are more people like this. After all, the results of the work in the next period of time will determine their harvest this year. Those who perform well in the autumn harvest can be rewarded by the lord and live in those stone houses with large spaces.
The travel between the agricultural area and the main residential area is extremely time-consuming, so they need a temporary place to stay.
This place is often the church of the goddess of life.
As the autumn harvest approaches and the new agricultural area is gradually opened up, more and more people gather around the church of the goddess of life to rest.
There are only two options. One is to expand the church of the goddess of life, but it is impossible for him to pay for the expansion of the church building. Then the other option is to build some temporary resting places as Wu Bai said, for the villagers who want to rest to rest outside the agricultural area.
"No problem, you can go to Chongshan to get the resources."
He took the application paper that Wu Bai had written and signed his name on it.
Although it is very troublesome that every application for large resources must go through him or Chongshan's signature, the system still has to operate in this way.
Some things that seem troublesome are to save more trouble.
Otherwise, their entire system will take a hundred times the time of writing a report and signing it to verify the whereabouts of a resource. Although Ji Lin is not worried about the possibility that his group of heroic units and people under his command will steal resources, the sooner this system is established, the more helpful it will be for subsequent development.
Wu Bai was a little uncomfortable at first, but later Chongshan asked him to take over the statistics of the resource consumption and production data of the entire territory for a week.
Since then, Wu Bai has been honestly following the system.
Ji Lin plans the territory's tendency and development weight based on these resource consumption and production data. For example, on a certain day, the meat supply may be insufficient or excessive, and the canteen may run out of cooking materials, so the collectors need to increase the amount of wild rice they collect.
Although the system provides the most basic resource monitoring templates for these lords, those are limited to the resources that enter the warehouse, that is, the resources that actually enter the territory resource warehouse. They can be compared with the statistical data of the affairs officers, but they still need a lot of other auxiliary data to govern the territory.
Ji Lin and Wu Bai talked for a while before turning the topic back to the light-colored elf lady following behind Ji Lin.
"This, Wu Bai, is responsible for the material transportation here. You can ask him if you have any needs."
Ji Lin introduced his guard team to the elf lady, the captain of the neighborhood watch organization, Wu Bai.
The elf lady nodded, indicating that she had memorized the guy in front of her.
Ji Lin asked routinely, he needed to confirm Forna's attitude... although her face could not hide her expression.
Confirm the attitude of this elf lady who almost wrote the words "I will stay here today" on her face.
"What do you think of this place?"
The elf lady thought for a moment and said.
"This is the center of the entire field... If there is such a strong breath of life... the tree species should be able to grow a little bit!"
"But there is actually a church of the goddess of life in the territory, this..."
The elf lady looked at Leah's gradually dangerous smile, and thought that this person might be her long-term neighbor, so she swallowed the four words "these guys" back.
The Life God Church is not a bad person, but Forna is fed up with the guys of the Light God Church, and habitually wants to blurt out. Carefully consider the words and give a fair evaluation.
"They still follow the prosperous territory very much."
