This short and long bull horn is the pre-agreed assembly number for high-level heroes.
Three short blows in rapid succession are an emergency warning signal of an intrusion.
There are also several sets of orders that have been agreed upon.
They correspond to different situations respectively.
The relevant orders have already been memorized by all heroic talents.
Among them, orders such as the general assembly number, the warrior assembly number, and the farmer assembly number are also understood by the relevant territorial citizens.
With such a few sets of orders, he can quickly gather the corresponding subjects.
Compared with the original method of using communication crystal for notification, it is more efficient.
When the horn was blown here in the territory, there was already a special wolf cavalry messenger team on standby. They rushed into the directional transmission channel leading to the teleportation gate with their horns slung across their bodies.
Basically, all ruling heroes can be notified in an orderly manner within a few minutes.
Of course, it would take a certain amount of time for them to rush to the lord's fortress to gather.
So after Zong Shen sent out the signal, he walked directly into the conference hall on the first floor of the fortress.
Sitting on the table, holding his chin with his hands, he seemed to be thinking about the next arrangements.
About twenty minutes passed, and with the assistance of the space mage Reese Ulysses, all the heroes with the power to govern in the territory arrived.
Some of them had already rested, temporarily dressed in uniform, and rushed to the Lord's Fortress to answer the call.
The maids responsible for the daily chores in the lord's fortress also got up and were on standby.
At Zong Shen's instruction, a crystal wine glass was placed on each table.
The three crystal decanters were filled with wine, and the kitchen was on full fire and busy.
He planned to turn this impromptu night party into a late-night dinner party.
Although it is a bit sudden, as a lord, you can be so willful.
This night party can be regarded as a gathering of all the backbone members of the territory.
[Dark Night Prayer Sophie] also came and was still sitting next to Mariel and Luna.
Strictly speaking, this guy has not officially joined the territory yet.
She is truly an "old guy" who has been sleeping since the last era, and her memory still remains in the past.
At that time, the elves were one of the most powerful races in the Endless Continent.
It was this pride stemming from the past that prevented her from surrendering to Zong Shen immediately.
Of course, Zong Shen didn't pay attention to her and was too lazy to spend time on Sophie.
Now that the territory's basic plan has been established, there will be no shortage of an ancient hero like her.
What's more, [Night Prayer Sophie]'s strength is not legendary.
It is only slightly stronger than a seventh-level warrior, and its strength level is between the middle and high levels of epics.
But one thing is for sure, Sophie's looks and figure are really impressive.
As a prayer, she has the holiness of a priest of the Holy Light and the fieryness of a huntress of the night.
However, the holiness of the night prayer comes from the pure heart of serving the moon god.
If I had to use one word to describe it, it would be lustful and pure.
The turbulent waves in the chest can even blind the eyes.
In addition, her clothes were extremely revealing. Whenever she knelt down to pray, both hemispheres glowed like water waves under the moonlight.
It's a pity that Mr. Zong is not the kind of guy without principles.
For beauty and other things, just taste it briefly. If you eat too much, it will be difficult to digest, and you will be punished by the river crab mythical beast.
As far as the current harem is concerned, he is too busy to favor even one person in one day.
But this guy is always hesitant and somewhat disrespectful to his handsome boy.
But Zong Shen was not prepared to argue with her, he was not so stingy.
It's just a matter of opening your mouth to eat. Sophie can stay if she wants to.
Just as Zong Shen's thoughts were flashing like lightning, he looked at her inadvertently.
Sophie, who was still chatting enthusiastically with Vereesa, felt something in her heart, and turned her eyes to meet Zong Shen's gaze.
Their eyes met and they were both stunned for a moment.
Then Zong Shen came back to his senses first and nodded in greeting with the same expression as before.
Sophie nodded quickly in response.
Vereesa, who was sitting next to them, glanced at the two of them silently and said nothing.
Fortunately, there were many people at the scene, so it was not an embarrassing situation.
This time even Xiao Heizi rarely came to attend the meeting.
It activated its transformation magic and turned into a young nobleman who was more than handsome but not calm.
His pale face looked like he had overindulged himself.
Naturally, the little blue dragon was not absent either. It hugged Joan of Arc's thigh and screamed "chichichi".
I don’t know why, but the little guy is very close to Joan of Arc.
Apart from Zong Shen himself, Lan Xiaodai has only shown obvious intimacy to Joan of Arc.
Even if other people take out food and feed it, Lan Xiaodai will not go crazy, but it is definitely not close to him.
Maybe this is the implicit relationship between personal charm and compatibility with dragons.
After all, pure-blood dragons all possess considerable intelligence and powerful telepathic talents.
They will have a natural affection for those close to them.
Zong Shen is an exception, his method of gaining favorability is still the same as the third one.
It is nothing more than extending favor and exerting pressure while maintaining personal force to suppress it.
The kobold chief Dutra was also picked up by Rhys Ulysses. He was wearing a hood to cover his ugly scales.
Because he was particularly afraid of Xiao Heizi, this guy didn't dare to come to the table.
Finally, Zong Shen noticed his embarrassment and ordered someone to bring a chair and temporarily place a seat next to him.
Anyway, the table top is spacious enough, and there is enough space for each single person, so it won't be a problem to squeeze in one more person.
Such an act of caring for his subordinates won the respect of everyone present.
As a subordinate of Zong Shen, it is inspiring enough to see the lord behave like this.
After everyone arrived, the maids poured wine into the glasses.
The kitchen was in full swing, and the aroma of fried eggs, fried meat and bacon wafted out.
It can really arouse a bit of greed.
Zong Shen didn't speak, just smiled and picked up the wine glass.
Howie was very discerning. He quickly picked up the wine glass and shouted loudly at the same time.
"With this glass of wine, let us wish the lord good luck!"
After he started, the atmosphere immediately became lively.
All the heroes around the table raised their glasses and shouted.
"May you have good luck, my lord!"
…
Zong Shen nodded and drank it all in one gulp.
Then, the maid standing next to him quickly picked up the jug and refilled the wine for him.
The magic chandelier emits warm white light, illuminating the entire meeting hall.
After drinking the first cup, the chef began to bring the appetizers to the table.
Since Dinan Village was conquered, the mid-level chef in the village and the old lady Tie Zhu once helped find the lost cat also joined the territory (first appeared in Chapter 64).
It is worth mentioning that the old lady is a rare pastry chef.
And the professional title has reached the intermediate level.
You should know that pastry chefs are much rarer than bakers.
Bakeries are almost everywhere, even in slightly larger villages, and there are bakers who are good at baking.
However, pastry chefs are basically exclusive to giant cities and can only be found in a few large cities.
So Zong Shen can be regarded as finding a treasure.
Just in time to drag the mid-level chef and pastry chef grandma to the Lord's Fortress.
To avoid making a big pot of rice and wasting your skills.
Specially provided for conference banquets to serve him and the key heroes.
In addition, during this period, the territory's material reserves have become more and more abundant.
Especially the types of ingredients available are much more than before.
With ingredients, chefs and pastry chefs, the quality of life is instantly improved.
As long as Zong Shen has free time, he can have a big meal every time.
The food standard is basically comparable to that of Baron Bezos.
——The dinner hosted by the baron was quite unforgettable for him.
Unfortunately, Zong Shen also had a hard life.
Just as I was able to enjoy the blessings, it was time to go out and work hard again.
Although there is not enough time, it is not short of an hour or two.
Simply make arrangements while eating, and save yourself from having lecture-style meetings at both ends of the three days.
And to be honest, all the heroes here are also hard-working and meritorious people for the territory.
In some ways, their contribution is no less than Zong Shen's.
Without their dedicated dedication, Zong Shen alone would not be able to make it happen.
Even if it works, it means spending a lot of time and energy on the management of the territory.
Normally fighting and coordinating the overall situation made him feel tired.
Not to mention being responsible for the arrangement, construction, farming, production, food, clothing, housing and transportation of the residents.
In addition, the arrangement of various combat formations is not an easy task.
Recently, the wear rate of soldiers' equipment has suddenly surged, reaching a breaking point of concentrated wear and tear.
Colby and the others were also overwhelmed with the situation.
Fortunately, there are reserves of relevant spare weapons in the territory, especially the batch of Lion Knights equipment that was originally obtained, as well as the standard equipment from the underground fortress in the Azshara sewers and the warehouse deep in the mines.
The total number reaches tens of thousands, which can meet the current replacement needs.
For a small number of warriors with special equipment or insufficient compatibility with these standard equipment, they will be registered separately, and then dedicated hero-level talents will go to the [market] to purchase them.
In addition, most of the equipment of level three and below can be produced by the territory itself.
The production volume has not increased yet, but it can produce more than 100 pieces every day.
To sum up, the soldiers’ clothing changing needs can basically be met.
However, just listening to the steps will tell you how tedious this job is.
Requires communication and coordination with multiple departments.
There is no need to delay the equipment matter. After all, equipment accounts for 40% of a soldier's actual combat power!
Anyway, the larger the territory, the more complex problems there will be.
This is why the more powerful the lord, the more powerful he is, rather than doing everything himself.
The atmosphere at the scene was good, and everyone ate and drank with peace of mind.
Among them, Salome Linyu, who is in charge of agriculture, the dwarf uncle, the goblin mechanical engineer Tie Zi, and the senior pharmacist Clarissa Theresa sit at the end of the seat.
None of them have yet advanced to become heroes.
In addition, functional departments are biased towards production. Although they are all important, their priority must be ranked behind the basic people's livelihood, governing heroes and fighting heroes.
Anyway, those who can sit here drinking and eating meat tonight are all Zong Shen's confidants.
A large luxurious round table was mostly filled.
Sooner or later, this round table that can seat 66 people will be full.
Zong Shen looked around and started eating and drinking.
The sky is huge and the earth is big, so eating is the biggest thing. Although he now has almost unlimited hunger and fullness, eating can still satisfy his appetite.
During the dinner, everyone was chatting.
Zong Shen also chatted with one of them from time to time.
The dinner at the night party adopts a separate meal system, and the kitchen is constantly serving dishes.
This meal lasted for more than an hour.
Three or four hours have passed since Zong Shen ordered some supplies.
The time has come to midnight.
Seeing that everyone has almost eaten.
Zong Shen put down his wine glass, picked up a napkin and wiped his mouth.
"Ahem!"
After two coughs, the hall instantly turned from noisy to quiet.
Everyone understood that this was the lord who wanted to speak.
Everyone stopped talking, put down their wine glasses, put their hands on their knees, and waited for Zong Shen's instructions.
Zong Shen first turned to look at the kobold chief Dutra.
He smiled and tried not to make it nervous.
Compared with the "big shots" on the scene, Dutra is inferior to him in terms of strength and qualifications.
Not to mention there are two full-blooded five-color true dragons present here.
True dragons are inherently repressive against kobolds.
After Zong Shen spoke, it quickly jumped off the chair, held its chest and saluted, waiting for instructions.
"Don't be nervous Dutra."
"The 1,200 elite miners who set out from the territory not long ago should have arrived at the mining area, right?"
The first thing he asked about was official business.
Fortunately, this is the only area where Dutra excels.
It never dares to slack off when it comes to matters in the mine, and it can be said that it is conscientious.
Hearing what Zong Shen said, it regained some composure.
"Back... back to your lord!"
"All 1,200 skilled miners are in place."
"Considering human rhythms, there is no work scheduled for tonight."
"All of them have entered the cleared dormitories in the mining area and have been assigned stone rooms according to the standard of four-person rooms."
"Relevant linens and food have been distributed by dedicated personnel."
At first, his speech was a bit stumbling, but then it became smoother and smoother.
It even has a bit of the shrill and brisk tone of the kobold.
This answer was enough to satisfy Zong Shen.
Efficient scheduling can also help productivity.
This new batch of miners need to adapt and rest, and due to the impact of their nighttime rhythm, they are prone to sleepiness.
So don't rush to work tonight.
After resting, there is no problem in arranging to go down the well tomorrow.
“Well done Dutra.”
"If you have any needs in the mine, you can report to Mariel."
After giving words of encouragement, Zong Shen raised his hand and took out a seed that glowed with golden light.
Then explained.
"This treasures the seed of the tree spirit [ancient condensator (gold)]."
"It can assist in ore mining, condense mineral fruits, and at the same time stabilize the mining area barriers."
"The Azshara Mining Area will receive one, and you will be responsible for choosing a planting location."
After saying that, he handed the seed into Dutra's scale-covered paw.
Dutra took it with some excitement and then closed his paws.
His expression became complicated and joyful.
"Sir, please rest assured, Dutra will sacrifice his bones and blood for you."
"Your mining area will be rich and productive, and the dogs will dig out the ore piles for you!"
