My farm does not raise idle dragons
Chapter 170: Some daily explanations, a new dungeon story is about to begin
In the past six months, Lu Xi has completed five activity tasks one after another, ranging in size from large to small. The only thing the same is that the activity tasks have more experience points as rewards.
Perhaps it was because he found that Lu Xi was too slow to complete side tasks and main tasks, so the game system had to open other plug-ins for Lu Xi.
Each event mission brought Lu Xi experience points ranging from level three to level ten.
This brought Lu Xi's level to the 65 mark, and his energy and stamina values reached 700 points. It was enough to maintain his stamina and energy consumption for a whole day without any additional supplements.
It’s hard to say how many things I got from the game activities, but the high-quality white bread for Grandma Rodya was very enriching, enough for Grandma Rodya to use for another year.
After all, Granny Rodya actually only needs to use a few of them a day, and she does not have to stay awake 24 hours a day, which is unrealistic.
And Grandma Rodya was not willing to rely too much on this food. She ate high-quality white bread for more than half a year, no matter how delicious it tasted. Anyway, Grandma Rodya was now a staunch rice lover.
The three ice dragon scales that were previously auctioned were each sold for tens of millions of gold coins. However, the money did not fall into Lu Xi's hands, but stayed in Crook Town.
Binglong came to Lingxuan Farm before. It seemed that only Lingxuan Farm suffered losses. However, Lingxuan Farm was included in the town of Crook. One-third of the area was affected at once, not to mention Bei. Temu has a headache.
Lingbo Farm hosted seven villages, but more disaster-stricken villages fled to Crook Town.
Thousands of homeless civilians suddenly appeared outside the town. Bertem was not the original aristocratic mayor. He could not care about the lives of civilians. He also knew the kindness of Miss Lucy - he even took them in at Lingbo Farm. If the people of seven villages were killed, could Crook Town allow these thousands of people to die?
Most of the wealth originally obtained from the Crocker family was used to maintain the normal operation of the town.
Not to mention anything else, the wages of the people sent from everywhere, the elemental warriors and elemental mages, are a big expense, and they cannot be refused. Who will do the work if they refuse?
In addition, as soon as Lu Xi came to power, he reduced a lot of taxes on civilians - this means that in the next few years, the tax amount of Crook Town may not be enough to maintain normal operations, and sufficient funds must be set aside.
Therefore, without much thought, Lu Xi left all the money from selling the ice dragon scales in Crook Town, and part of it was used for disaster relief, building temporary shelters for villagers outside these towns and providing survival relief food.
The other part was used to build roads.
Yes, Lu Xi is planning to build a road directly to the towns of Landry and Muhatta.
Luxi, Muhatta Town and Landry Town all have their own businesses. If the road condition is not good, the speed of caravan travel will be slow. If there is a well-built road, at least one more trip can be made in the same time and double the profit. money.
Lu Xi was probably influenced by the saying "If you want to be rich, build roads first", so he was very determined about building roads, to a point that others could not understand.
In fact, it is not that there are no roads built in other worlds, but there are very few, because human towns are too loosely distributed and far apart from each other, so road construction is not cost-effective. Because of monsters, it is difficult to maintain road conditions.
Almost no one wants to do such a thankless job.
But Lu Xi had different ideas.
The geographical location of Tanersi Territory is relatively remote, and there is not even a large human city. But because of this, the distance between the three human towns is not too far.
As the output of Lingyi Farm increases, maintaining a continuous trade route is not a big problem. In other words, it is precisely because the output of Lingyi Farm is increasing that a trade route is needed to increase transportation volume.
Furthermore, it is a matter of maintaining roads. The respective towns regularly send people to maintain them. The cost is naturally very high, but what if there is no need to send people specially?
Outside every human town, there are hundreds of villages, ranging from hundreds to dozens of people, scattered in the wilderness with no fixed living location.
Maybe if you encounter a monster today, you will move to the next place to live. Not only will your safety not be guaranteed, but your property will not be protected either.
If all the villagers in these villages could be moved to live next to the trade road, and these villagers would maintain the trade road, wouldn't this problem be solved?
There is no need to worry that the villagers will not be careful or damage the trade routes themselves. If the patrol team can ensure the safety around the trade routes so that these villagers can completely settle down and do not have to travel around, then these villagers will be better than anyone else. More concerned about the integrity of trade routes.
Furthermore, in addition to patrols, caravans travel non-stop throughout the year, and there is no need to worry about monsters. Which caravan does not bring dozens of elemental warriors and elemental mages with it?
The caravans who travel by themselves are also part of the maintenance of trade routes.
In addition to these, there are several advantages that are visible to the naked eye. For example, for the thousands of people outside the town of Crook who can only wait for charity every day, the construction of roads gives them a job to do and hope to survive.
Lu Xi couldn't do anything to force people to work for him for free, so he didn't even need to tell how much he would pay. Countless people signed up as long as he was provided with three meals a day and enough to eat.
Even some civilians in human towns want to join the road construction team.
Not everyone can live well in human towns.
And Lu Xi considered that many people not only had to feed themselves, but also had to feed a whole family, so he generously allowed everyone to take away a piece of food in addition to eating for themselves.
In fact, this was a bit troublesome, but Lu Xi only came up with ideas, and Bertem was the one who actually did the work, so the trouble didn't come to Lu Xi.
According to Lu Xi's opinion, all road construction workers will carry a wooden ID card to prove how much work they have done every day. They can press a seal with the foreman. The seal pattern will be different every day to prevent anyone from cheating.
With the stamped wooden sign, road construction workers can go to the "big canteen" for meals every day. It is a self-service mode. You can take as much as you like, but no waste is allowed.
After each meal, when they go out, someone will supervise them and put another stamp on them.
The seal of "Big Canteen" has two meanings, one is "Eat cleanly, no waste", and the other is "Eat not cleanly, waste food".
One month is used as a period. If you get the previous no-waste stamp for one month, you can use this wooden sign to receive an extra piece of food.
Because of the size of the wooden sign, it can only be stamped for one month at most, so the wooden sign itself is replaced every month.
In addition to the "big canteen", there is also the "small canteen". You can get a piece of food in the small canteen every day with the help of wooden signs. This food is enough to feed an adult and enough to feed two children. As long as the family size is not There are so many that they can be fed. Originally, people in Crook town were quite repulsive to people who allowed this group of civilians to enter the town. After seeing this treatment, many people started to become jealous.
Although workers were not paid directly, food was not less valuable than money. Therefore, after building the road for more than half a month, Betem discovered that many civilians from Crook Town ran out and infiltrated the road construction team.
They were all poor people who really couldn't survive. If they could live in peace, who would be willing to do such hard and tiring work? Betem didn't say anything, just turned a blind eye and let it go.
By the beginning of the second month, the original road construction team of several thousand people suddenly grew to more than 10,000 people. In addition to some civilians in Crook Town, there were also many villagers from other villages who came after hearing the news. .
Although they were not affected by the disaster, their life was not that good. They had been busy farming all day, and the harvest was only a little. They couldn't eat enough every day. It was like working at a road construction site. Regardless of how tired they were every day, they only had three meals a day. Meal, no one cares about eating every meal, as long as there is no leftover food.
After a month, I can take home a reward of food to give my family extra meals to replenish their health.
If you switch to a home with a small population, you can still sell food and save some money to keep.
Bertem really didn't expect that Miss Lucy could think so long-term, be so detailed and comprehensive, and solve multiple problems at the same time with one thing.
As for the road in Crook Town, it took less than a month for the road to be built, and both Landry Town and Muhatta Town had received the news.
Muhatta Town immediately chose to follow Miss Lucy's footsteps, and a road construction team from Muhatta Town was formed within two days.
If Mayor Julie were not said to be smart, others might have seen Miss Lucy as "wasting money and wasting people" or "loving without boundaries", but Mayor Julie suddenly thought of what would happen after the completion of this trade road.
Do I need to pay "tolls" when traveling on business roads? That must be paid, otherwise where will the cost of maintaining and repairing the road be paid, regardless of the profit-absorbing ability of this trade road.
This caravan leads from Crook Town. Of course, the "tolls" belong to Crook Town - but think about it, how many goods are there in Lingbo Farm and how many times the caravan has to go to and from it. .
Not just caravans, but with a safe road, will the mercenaries coming and going come here? Who would choose a dangerous place when there is a safe route? As we go back and forth, we can imagine that the number of people traveling on these trade routes will only increase.
Mayor Julie will never let go of such a money-making opportunity. She has already lost the possibility of participating in the profit sharing at the beginning, so if she joins now, she can still get at least 10% or 20% of the profit, which is not a loss.
Therefore, after sending someone to learn about Miss Lucy's arrangements, Mayor Julie didn't even hesitate too much and directly chose to apply them.
Landry Town was closely followed. I don’t know whether he looked down on the role of commerce or felt that the road was useless. The mayor of Landry Town was not interested in this trade route at first.
However, there is still a young master Landry living in Lingnan Farm. After discovering that Miss Lucy was building a road, he sent messages to his brother three times a day.
I don't know whether he thought it was okay after thinking about it, or simply couldn't stand the harassment of his brother's messages. The mayor of Landry Town also later got involved in building the road.
To avoid trouble, seeing that the other two towns were using a set of management methods, Landry Town followed suit.
When Lu Xi went out, more than half of the roads in several towns had been built. It was initially expected that they would be completely completed before it snowed in winter.
Many villages have also completed their relocation and have completely settled on both sides of the trade road.
Lu Xi also suggested to Betem that the villagers who settled on both sides of the trade road could build a few more houses for the caravans to rest.
Although most carriages are comfortable and luxurious, they are only for the owner's family. Most of the entourage can only sleep in tents and beds on the floor.
If you can provide them with houses and other accommodation functions, you can at least make enough money to live on. If you can provide special food and other services, it is not impossible to make a fortune.
As for Lingxuan Farm, road construction has not started yet, because the ice layer left by the ice dragon has not completely melted away, so we can only wait until next year.
Lu Xi got on the brand new special carriage and looked at the scene outside, looking forward to the future a little more.
This carriage was specially dedicated to Lu Xi by Betem. The carriage Lu Xi used before was only made by the craftsman Uhe. It was a relatively ordinary one. In Betem's eyes, it was not a perfect match for Miss Lucy's identity.
It happened that Bethem was in charge of affairs in Crook Town, so he spent a long time to find someone to make Miss Lucy a super invincible and luxurious giant carriage - it took six feathered horses to pull it.
How luxurious is this carriage... It has a separate bedroom, bathroom, dressing room, toilet, kitchen, living room, study room, and lounge.
Although this carriage is only four or five meters wide on the outside, it uses the power of the contract to fold a considerable amount of space inside.
Rather than a carriage, Lu Xi wanted to call it a "RV", which was really equivalent to a house.
After receiving the carriage, Lu Xi specially found the craftsman Uhe to help modify it. The modified carriage can give some of the characteristics of game system props - such as a faucet that can produce water without a source.
All in all, it is more suitable for Lu Xi's usage habits, and some flashy functions have been removed, making it less flashy.
Even for the renovation fee, the craftsman Wu He charged Lu Xi 10,000 gold coins. It can be imagined that the carriage built by Betem cost an exaggerated amount.
"He... is good at spending money." Even Xiuge gave Bertem an evaluation when he saw this carriage for the first time.
Lu Xi was silent, but she had to say that this carriage came at the right time. If nothing unexpected happened, she would be embarking on an extremely long journey after attending the "Ice Festival" in Crook Town.
[A letter of invitation: The elves from far away have heard the sound of music you created, the sound that is enough for the soul to rest quietly, the sound that is enough to soothe the tiredness and sorrow... They hope to invite you to participate in a party. Concert of elves. 】
