Chapter 25 - dock
Mermaid Bay.
Barr was standing by the sea, Donald was observing the conditions of the surrounding waters.
Bart stood quietly behind Baal, his broad body blocked a large area of sunlight, bringing a shade of shade to Baal, followed by some goblin laborers and a team of guards in the village.
After annihilating the murlocs, the murlocs near the bay have already started to escape on a large scale. This water will not be troubled by murlocs for a long time, and it is time to start building a dock.
Barr’s current location is a beach on the north side of Mermaid Bay. At a glance, the blue sea surface is rippled by the sea breeze, and the scenery is very beautiful.
It is very close to the village.
Not far behind the beach is a cliff. Due to the erosion by sea water and sea breeze for many years, the rock wall has begun to weather a little, and it is covered with some large and small caves.
“My lord, I’m sorry to say that the location here is good, but it’s not the best place to build a dock.” Donald said with some worry, “Although the environment here is not bad and it’s very close to the village, the sea area in front of you is not bad. The current is not stable, and there is a lot of sediment on the seabed. It is good to build small ships. If you want to build large ships, you must clean up and transform the sea area ahead, which will take a lot of time and the amount of engineering big.”
“Old Tang, I understand what you’re saying, but I have reasons why I have to choose here, and you will naturally understand in a few days.” Barr smiled wryly.
He didn’t know that building the dock here would require a lot of manpower and material resources to transform in the later stage, but compared to what he got, this effort was nothing.
“Old Tang” is Barr’s new name for Donald. Although Donald was not used to it at the beginning, after calling it a lot, he reluctantly accepted it.
Donald nodded.
“Okay, since the lord decides to choose here, the subordinates will lead people to start the construction.”
Donald understands in his heart that although his adults sometimes think a little out of the way, they are very cautious in handling important matters. After all, he didn’t say any more.
“Start work!”
After Baal finished speaking, Donald directed the goblin hardworkers to start work.
The wood and stone materials needed for construction have already been delivered by the goblin hardworkers. Although it is very close to the village, and the murlocs in this area are hard to see, Baal still mobilized a team of guards from the village to station here.
Be prepared.
There are several places where a dock can be built, and there are many better ones, but Baal chose this place without hesitation. The reason is very simple, the crystal mines are located in the depths of these caves!
Crystal is an important strategic resource. If it is mined rashly, it will bring disaster to the village if it leaks.
At that time, not only the human kingdom in the south will not let him go, but even the orc empire will do everything possible to **** the crystal mine. This is just like the nuclear weapons of the previous life. Although those big countries have many nuclear weapons, they will never allow other small countries to get even a single nuclear warhead. Ordinary people need not say more, and may not even have the qualifications to take a look.
If you want to mine, you naturally have to hide it from the world, so Barr chose this time: build the plank road in the bright, darken the warehouse, and use the dock to hide people’s eyes and ears. The size of the dock is large enough to cover the caves on the rock wall, and it is a matter of course that the dock is built on the seashore, which will not lead to suspicion.
What Baal brought this time was all the people he had summoned. No matter how loyal people are, they will have weaknesses, and those with weaknesses can be broken. Only the characters who are summoned will never betray themselves.
The dock was built on the side near the cliff. With the efforts of the goblin hardworkers, the building was gradually taking shape. The cave on the cliff was soon hidden by the huge dock.
……
The first-class dock can only support the construction of some small fishing boats, but for Hailan Village, it is enough. Now the village does not need to engage in maritime warfare, nor does it have the conditions for maritime trade.
Fishing can enrich the variety of food in the village, increase some food reserves, and improve the satisfaction of the villagers. It is still very good. After the murloc water village was wiped out, this water area is relatively safe.
“Let’s go back first.”
Leaving Donald and the villagers to build a dock here, Baal takes Bart back to the village.
Village entrance.
“Sir, you are back.
A team of guards in the village was patrolling, and when they saw Barr walk in, they stopped to say hello. Now that Bart is behind him, it becomes very difficult for Barr to keep a low profile. For such a tall and big man, his movements are not small when he walks, and he can be noticed from a distance of several hundred meters.
“Thanks for your hard work.”
Barr patted the lead guard on the shoulder.
The guard looked excited, stood up straight, saluted, turned around and continued to walk forward with the team.
After joining a lot of new troops, the village is now a busy scene.
To the southeast of the village is the planned commercial district of Barr.
The primary market and primary grocery store have all been built, and the primary clothing store next to it is under construction. Some goblin laborers and new villagers are busy. It should be completed this afternoon. Except for the blacksmith shop, the village Upgrading requires that all other buildings have already been constructed.
The northeast side is a residential area. With the efforts of the villagers, the houses are rapidly taking shape.
At present, the wood and stone materials in the village are still relatively sufficient, so there is no need to worry about the shortage of resources in a short period of time. The number of people in the village is increasing, and the consumption of food is also increasing. However, after the construction of the dock is completed, fishing boats can be built and some villagers can be organized to go fishing. , and in a few months, the farmland will be able to produce something.
About 70 acres of farmland in the east of the village have been reclaimed. Barr alone found someone to spend a small piece of land and planted the seeds of the flaming potato. The seeds are growing very fast, and they should be harvested in a few days. Soon Can be planted on a large scale. Not far from the east of the village is the Soma River that flows from the northeast to the southwest coast. The water flow is very large. Barr has instructed John to organize the villagers to dig a canal to divert the water from the Soma River to irrigate the farmland.
Although John was a bit slick, he was very attentive to what Barr ordered. Barr left some small matters in the village to John to handle by himself.
In the Rand world, these buildings constructed directly from the world source are very important.
If the sub-professionals are equivalent to the technicians in the previous life~www.mtlnovel.com~, then these buildings themselves are equivalent to large-scale production factories. A person’s power is always limited, and these factories can play a huge role after the technical support provided by the relevant technicians. They can produce various items in large quantities. The level of the building determines the production volume of the factory. and production capacity.
Take the junior blacksmith shop for example. After the blacksmith moves in, providing the necessary materials and blueprints, it can automatically produce equipment and weapons on a large scale. However, due to the limitation of scale, it can only manufacture equipment below level 20 on a large scale, and the daily output can only reach 20 sets. When the building is upgraded, the level and output of equipment that can be manufactured will be increased.
Of course, if you have a master-level blacksmith in your blacksmith shop, you can also directly let him build advanced equipment, but it will take a long time to build. For a territory, this kind of large-scale manufacturing equipment The ability is more important than a mere blacksmith.
However, the collection point of various resources is an exception. As long as your collection personnel skills are high and the number of people is large enough, the collection speed will naturally be faster. Of course, the improvement of the mining technology in the territory will also speed up this process.
“Bart, go and call John to meet me in the chamber.” Barr turned his head and said.
Batt nodded, turned and left.
As a half-elemental life, Bart is not very good at communicating with people. The elemental life is almost an eternal existence. Like most elemental life, he has become accustomed to loneliness in his long life.
Back in the meeting room, Barr made himself a pot of tea.
The tea in this world is similar to what Barr drank in his previous life. It is also made from leaves of a plant, but in comparison, it has more sweetness and less bitterness. After drinking it a few times, Barr will get used to it.
