Age of Empires From Scratch

David didn't respond specifically to Penny's enthusiasm, but just chatted politely, and the blond girl also realized that David had 'no interest' in her.

However, her character is relatively careless, and her nature is not bad, she didn't care too much about being 'rejected', she just took advantage of the situation and said, I thought you were like Leonard and the others in the game, you are a useful person. The old man with the gray beard' changed the subject.

After a brief chat, the two sides got to know each other. Seeing that David hadn't launched an offensive against Penny, Leonard heaved a sigh of relief secretly, and at the same time introduced several other friends to David: This is Howard-Woloway tz.

Hello, just call me Howard. Howard reached out and shook David, and at the same time introduced Rajesh Kusapari, who was unable to speak in front of women, for David: This is Raj - Kusapari, he can't speak in the presence of women, considering the current situation, you can just treat him as a mute.

... Raj glared at his friend, then shook hands with David with a smile, then pulled Howard aside, and continued to express his dissatisfaction with his hands.

Oh? What did you say? Sorry, I can't hear anything... Although Howard kept complaining about Raj, he didn't break away from each other, and the two walked aside like this, continuing the previous conversation mode.

The two of them...

Yes, we sometimes have such doubts. Leonard looked at the two people, expressing that he was used to this scene: And this is the roommate Sheldon Cooper who rents the apartment with me, Shelton Don! Don't pester Fording to ask questions anymore! You don't need you to popularize what Holy Light is for him!

He greeted Sheldon Cooper loudly, the tall and thin man who kept talking around Fording, although his face was full of reluctance, he still walked in front of David.

In fact, if he hadn't met Fording, Sheldon would have been very curious about David, the head of Cold Winter Village. He wondered why this place could gather people from different worlds. What is so extraordinary about David?

After looking up and down, Sheldon greeted David very politely: Hi, I'm Dr. Sheldon Cooper.

Hello, Dr. Cooper. David shook hands with Sheldon. Compared with how Sheldon treats most people in the plot, this man is already very polite to himself: Welcome to Rin Winter Village.

Thank you very much for inviting us to be your guest. It's my honor. It's not that Shelton doesn't know how to speak politely to people, but most of the time he doesn't want to do that because he thinks it's unnecessary.

But when facing David, he re-arranged the skills that he didn't usually use in the skill column: In addition, I can assure you that your decision is very correct... I heard that the village chief is considering using Rin Winter Village has been built into the town of Cold Winter, and I have some... oh ~ Leonard, don't you see that I am discussing important matters with Village Chief David?

Leonard gave David an awkward smile full of apology, and at the same time poked Sheldon again: I don't think Village Chief David needs to ask your opinion on how to build his own village.

While whispering 'whisper', Leonard pulled Sheldon aside, and the two began to argue fiercely. David looked at the similar scene that he had seen many times at close range, and found it very interesting.

Huh? Why is it so lively here today? At this moment, Will, who hadn't seen much all day, came back from Port Royal, and found that the village was bustling like never before, and there were many people he had never seen before: Here we come So many newcomers?

David explained the current situation to Will, and learned that not only newcomers like Leonard and Eva came to Cold Winter Village, Fording also successfully recruited hundreds of people, he realized that Cold Winter Village will To enter a period of rapid development.

As a blacksmith, I will be very busy next time.

Will doesn't think there's anything wrong with this, it's only when he's busy that he becomes important, and in these days like now, his main task is to study. Learning a new language and learning new forging knowledge, but there is nowhere to display it after learning, which makes him very uncomfortable.

Now, with the arrival of a large number of people, just building various tools and maintenance is enough for him to keep busy every day.

After another introduction, several of Leonard's friends reacted miraculously when they saw Will Turner, especially Penny and Raj. On the contrary, Sheldon was very calm. It seems that he I don't have any special impressions of the little blacksmith.

While a group of people were chatting with each other, David took the time to hand Laura the list he had written earlier: These things need to be bought as soon as possible, especially beds and bedding.

The weather has gradually turned cold, so it's okay for the group of craftsmen who just arrived to deal with it for a day or two, but something will happen after a long time.

Leave it to me. In fact, Peggy has already told me. Laura looked at the list, which showed in detail how many sets of quilts to buy at least first, and how many sets are needed later? And the priorities of various materials: Speaking of which, don't you need to buy a batch of building materials?

It's not clear yet. David said that he can only decide what to buy after Van Cleef inspects the surrounding environment of Cold Winter Village: It may be necessary for Edwin to figure out what resources are available around Cold Winter Village, You need something missing to know which building materials to buy.

When Laura heard David say this, she immediately understood his thoughts: Do you want to use the materials available here as much as possible to build a new town?

If the city wants to develop, the demand for various raw materials will increase. It is impossible to always rely on you to carry them from home. David has already had this idea. Before the village was small and the population was small, the demand was only At that point, Laura transportation is not a hassle either.

It is no longer possible, a town with a few hundred people is not too small, and the demand for various supplies is very alarming. If everything goes well, there will be continuous expansion in the future. Does it all depend on Laura to transport cement here one by one?

In short, David's next goal is to use 'local' resources as much as possible in raw materials. Only some high-end, sophisticated, and irreplaceable things are 'imported' from other worlds.

In the days that followed, Laura began to frequently go back and forth between Cold Winter Village and her own world. She first brought over bedding and bunk beds, followed by various tools required by the craftsmen to ensure that the craftsmen could start working immediately.

Then there are radiators and other living facilities. In order to ensure that there will be no injuries and downsizing in the winter village, which has reached hundreds of people, Laura also purchased a large number of medicines and coal.

The originally quiet and peaceful Lindong Village has become a large construction site again, and this time it is much larger than the previous one. The simple layout of Lindong Village can run through the whole village from a main street, and gradually changes to a square layout.

Fording took some time, and finally brought all 400 former Brotherhood members and some of their family members to Cold Winter Village. Among the 400 people, there are nearly 100 senior craftsmen, and more than 200 are the families of these senior craftsmen. Mainly women and children, less than a hundred people are low-level craftsmen and miners.

This population structure is very unreasonable, but there is a reason: the senior craftsmen trust Van Cleef, and they are on the most wanted list of the Stormwind Kingdom, so there is no way for them to go back and continue to be ordinary people. These people and their families will either follow Van Cleef Cold Winter Village, or choose to leave the Kingdom of Stormwind by boat.

As for the less than 100 artisans and miners, they are basically young and strong bachelors. They trust Van Cleef and they have nothing to worry about, so Van Cleef will take them to start a new life elsewhere, and these people will follow. up.

In the end, these 400 people are all human beings. When Van Cleef formed the Defias Brotherhood, in order to ensure that the Defias Brotherhood had a strong enough high-end combat power, he hired tauren, murlocs and other races. None of the mercenaries brought to Cold Winter Village.

One is that Van Cleef doesn't know what the situation in David's world is like, and he doesn't know whether these non-human races will cause any bad conflicts after the past; the other reason is that Van Cleef doesn't trust these mercenaries. When discussing whether to go to another world to start a new life, he didn't even inform those few.

In any case, about 400 craftsmen, miners and their family members joined Cold Winter Village, and after Van Cleef introduced David to everyone, he also voluntarily resigned as the leader and took off the red mask around his neck on the spot Burn it down, announcing that the fraternity and masonry guilds are a thing of the past, and everyone will be villagers of Cold Winter Village in the future.

Afterwards, he started his own field investigation. He estimated that he would spend one to two months to investigate the surroundings of Lindong Village, and to study the geology, types of mineral deposits, and where there are a large number of high-quality stones in this area. Only when all these situations are clear can we start to think about how to design a new city.

Including your castle, you need to start designing after that.

My... castle? David listened to Van Cleef's description of the future plan, and he was completely dazed. Even his hand that was writing stopped: When did I say I was going to build a castle?

He just wanted Van Cleef to help design a new Cold Winter Town. Why are the castles all out?

I heard that you are going to apply to upgrade Cold Winter Village to Cold Winter Town. If it goes well, you will get a title. As a titled lord, isn't it normal to live in a castle?

... David felt that what Edwin Van Cleef said was very reasonable, and he couldn't refute it at all: This... is at best a rural lord in a remote area of ​​the kingdom, and he may not necessarily be able to obtain a title.

Van Cleef looked at David's shining eyes: I will design a better castle than Stormwind Keep.
