He quickly glanced at the goblin engineer.
Found that its initial loyalty is only 70 points.
As for the attributes, they are also very general.
Only strength and wisdom reached 23 and 30 points respectively.
Additionally, Goblin Engineers do not have combat skills.
However, he can drive most of the magic tanks and mechas that do not exceed level six.
He also has the technical ability of [Senior Engineer].
Obviously he is also a purely technical talent.
"Welcome to join you, Iron Hand Barenque!"
"Then I'll call you Tiezi!"
"Tie Zi, in fact, there are a lot of good things in our territory."
"I believe you will be very interested."
Zong Shen curled his lips and gave it a nickname with earth characteristics.
At the same time, he leaned forward and whispered to him mysteriously.
After hearing these words, this guy became interested.
"Something that interests me."
"You...are you telling the truth?"
Iron Hand Barenque opened his eyes wide and asked repeatedly.
Goblins are inherently a curious race.
Zong Shen's words obviously aroused his thirst for knowledge.
At this time, Zong Shen just smiled and said nothing, and walked forward several steps to himself, arriving at the open space in the central area.
I saw him raise his right hand and wave it quickly.
He took out the fifth-level [Earthshaker Chariot] from the storage compartment.
As a combat-type magic chariot, this thing can definitely make any goblin engineer crazy!
This fifth-level tank can be said to represent a very high technical level in mechanical engineering.
When the huge Earthshaker chariot appeared in the open space.
Immediately behind Zong Shen came the slightly exaggerated scream of goblin engineer Ironhand Barenque.
"Oh my God! Look what I saw?"
"This turns out to be a large magic chariot!"
Immediately afterwards, Zong Shen saw the goblin engineer running towards the chariot with his agile figure, and climbed up directly with quick eyes and hands.
He raised his buttocks and looked at the chariot carefully while lying on his knees.
Zong Shen smiled and said nothing, not surprised at all that Iron Hand Barenque showed such excitement.
After all, goblin merchants like money most, and goblin engineers like these mechanical products.
Zong Shen didn't mind this either, letting it crawl around on the Earthshaker chariot to study the mechanical structure.
At this time, Ironhand Barenque got into the cockpit and came out again after a minute or two.
With an expression of surprise on its face, it jumped back to Zong Shen and knelt down on its knees.
He reached out and held Zong Shen's left foot.
[Senior Goblin Engineer Ironhand Barenc's loyalty to you has increased by 10 points, and the current loyalty is 80]
A loyalty reminder appears.
Zong Shen just glanced at it and dismissed the reminder with a thought.
Similar loyalty change prompts must appear at least dozens of times every day, and he has long been used to it.
The attitude of the iron hand Barenque in front of him took a 180-degree turn.
"Sir, please give me this chariot for study and research!"
"I'd love to drive it for you!"
Its tone was urgent, with a pleading mood.
Zong Shen raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said in a bewitching and erratic tone.
"As long as you serve the territory well, there will be more good things in the future."
"In addition, there is an ancient combat puppet just outside the territorial living area."
"I thought you'd be interested too!"
Hearing what Zong Shen said, the goblin engineer's two big eyes lit up again.
"Very good!"
"Ironhand Barenque will do his best to serve the territory!"
It bowed its head again to show its loyalty.
Although Zong Shen didn't know in what era this guy was banned from another dimension, the combat puppet that had been simply repaired by the dwarf uncle could just give this guy some training.
"Get up, I will study this chariot for you for a day."
"There is no machinery workshop in the territory for the time being, but I will arrange for people to help you build a simple shelter, where you can conduct research."
"There are some magic energy crystals here. You need to charge the chariot with some energy first."
Zong Shen said with a smile, and took out a few high-level magic crystals and handed them to Iron Hand Barunque. This guy grabbed his feet and wouldn't let go, which was really embarrassing.
After getting his promise, the goblin engineer stood up, took the magic crystal, climbed up to the cockpit entrance above the chariot, got in and started tinkering.
At this time, a white light appeared in front of Zong Shen's eyes.
He twitched his eyebrows, knowing that it should be midnight.
This is a typical characteristic of the time-stop state.
This means that the heat wave challenge has been started for 36 hours.
Speaking of which, this was the easiest of the three challenges he had experienced.
The fancy props and resources I had hoarded worked perfectly in this challenge.
What is foundation? This is called foundation!
If he had not obtained the [cruel blood-burning arrows] and had not conquered the griffon nest and obtained a large number of magic gems, then the harvest from this challenge would certainly not have been as great as it is now.
Before he had time to think about it, the white light in front of his eyes expanded rapidly.
The time-out status appears, which means that the temporary point redemption for this round of challenges is about to begin.
As the white light dissipated, announcement subtitles began to appear in front of Zong Shen's eyes.
[Heat Wave Challenge has been open for 36 hours, and the points redemption mall is temporarily open once]
[Duration sixty minutes]
[After the announcement is over, all lords will be provided with a 15-minute exclusive exchange time]
This announcement is very brief.
When the subtitles slowly dissipated, Zong Shen immediately opened the [Heat Wave Points] option.
Every lord is already familiar with this process.
This is especially true for Zong Shen. Naturally, he will not waste any more time. After all, he has more than one million challenge points in his hand.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This exchange provides a 15-minute time-stop exchange and a 45-minute ordinary exchange time.
He was even a little worried that he might not be able to redeem all the challenge points he had in the total of 60 minutes.
But that doesn't matter, he can keep the remaining points until the point redemption at the end of the challenge.
Based on past experience, the redemption at the end of the challenge can last for a relatively long time.
In short, it cannot be wasted.
However, he will spend as many points as he can spend in this round of redemption.
Only after the redemption is completed can the points be converted into real things.
Otherwise, those points will always be just a string of numbers lying next to the [Points Balance].
For the development of the territory, any items he exchanges can come in handy.
Zong Shen found the new [Points Redemption] sub-option within the [Helang Points] option.
It seems that the [Points Redemption] for each challenge is different.
Zong Shen doesn’t know what kind of redemption classification will appear this time.
With a slightly uneasy feeling, Zong Shen opened the [Points Redemption] option.
The light curtain trembled, and four major exchange categories emerged.
They are [Resource Materials], [Architectural Drawings], [Auxiliary Props], and [Points Lottery]
Needless to say, the first redemption option [Resource Materials] is an option that appears in almost every round of points redemption. It contains various basic resources, as well as some such as mithril, primary element crystals, and elements.
Advanced resource materials such as runes and magic gems.
Zong Shen does not lack resources.
So there is no need to spend points on redeeming resources.
However, he still opened the redemption option as usual and quickly flipped through it to see if there were any rare materials worth redeeming.
Unfortunately, there is still no harvest.
This time in [Resource Materials], the common basic resources that can be exchanged are still those.
It does not include special magic materials such as time, space, frost, arcane, thunder, and wind.
Zong Shen thought for a moment and closed the [Resource Materials] redemption option.
Then the [Architectural Drawings] opened.
Zong Shen still remembers the redemption option called [Defense Blueprint] that appeared during the crypt challenge.
At the beginning, he exchanged a large number of fourth-level defense towers in the [Defense Blueprint] and established the territory's defense matrix system.
This time the [Architectural Drawings] option seems to have more options.
There are also three subcategories.
They are: [Basic Blueprints], [Defense Blueprints], and [Special Blueprints].
These three classification options represent the three redeemable building classifications.
Zong Shen first opened the [Basic Drawing] option.
It provides various common residential buildings from first to fifth levels.
Nowadays, four-story double-story stone houses are commonly built in his territory.
The fifth-story houses are larger and taller three-story stone houses.
The structure and main construction resources consumed are similar.
It just means it can accommodate more people.
All the drawings exchanged here are complete drawings, which can be built directly without consuming any materials and without any pre-construction, which is very convenient.
However, the exchange price is not cheap either.
Basically, the points for material consumption are also included.
In addition to the houses, there are also basic architectural drawings such as stone roads, water canals, simple suspension bridges, and primary and intermediate fertile fields.
For other basic buildings, it is actually not cost-effective to use points to redeem them.
Take the stone road as an example. Each section of the fifth-level stone road costs 320 points to redeem.
The size of each section of stone road is 8 meters wide x 20 meters long.
It is a wide stone road.
The fifth-level stone road has good sturdiness and durability.
But the price of redeeming this points is not low either.
According to the point redemption price, if you want to lay one kilometer of fifth-level stone road, you will have to spend 16,000 points.
If you want to lay a fifth-level stone road in your territory, you won't even see the splash of water without spending hundreds of thousands of points.
Therefore, it is simply not worthwhile to redeem these basic buildings.
Zong Shen checked all the basic buildings available for exchange.
Among all the basic buildings, only primary and intermediate fertile fields are worth redeeming with challenge points.
The point redemption price for [Elementary Fertile Farm Construction Drawing] is 80 points, and the area is 10mx10m.
The redemption price of [Intermediate Fertile Farm Construction Drawing] is 700 points, covering an area of 30mx30m.
The latter is nine times larger than the former, equivalent to 1.35 acres.
From this point of view, it is more cost-effective to exchange for intermediate fertile land.
As a basic building with special bonuses, intermediate fertile fields can shorten crop growth time by 45%, and can also increase crop yields by 10%.
This made Zong Shen's mind become more active.
As a basic building, intermediate fertile land can be exchanged in an unlimited amount.
It just so happened that Zong Shen was already preparing a farming plan after the challenge period.
For him, vigorously developing farming in the territory was a very important goal.
Take advantage now to redeem some [Intermediate Fertile Farm Construction Blueprints], they will definitely come in handy.
Fertile fields with special bonuses can be used as the core grain-producing area for territorial control!
He referenced agricultural patterns among Aboriginal people.
Taking Bosbon as an example, the city has its own farms and orchards.
The grain produced is enough to feed the entire army and relatives of the state, and there is even a surplus.
There are also farmers in Bangcheng, and farmers in Bangcheng are self-sufficient in small-scale cultivation.
It can basically meet the food consumption of the Bangcheng population.
Of course, there are also some residents in the city who do not engage in farming.
But they can work to earn dinars, and then use dinars to buy grain, fruits, vegetables, meat and other ingredients.
After all, Bosbon is also a nearby distribution center for agricultural products.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! As for the villages and settlements under its jurisdiction, they are in the most primitive self-produced and self-sold mode.
In addition to satisfying food and drink, a portion of each quarter's output will be reserved, and the remaining balance will be sold.
Zong Shen plans to refer to this model, but will change the most critical steps.
Grain in the territory can be bought and sold, but it must be exclusively purchased by the Ministry of Agriculture established by the city hall.
Food is not allowed to be sold to any traveling merchants.
This is an important stabilization measure. Zong Shen must ensure that the food produced in the territory does not suffer a large loss.
Otherwise, his free people's reforms and the promotion of farming would become a joke.
The reform of free people is to enhance the subjective initiative of the people and reduce the laziness of tool people.
Supplemented by loyalty as a guarantee, it can ensure that every order he orders can be implemented quickly.
But appropriate regulation and macroeconomic control are also essential.
It is Zong Shen's responsibility as a lord.
Before farming can be fully promoted, territories must have their own fields.
Just like some of the giant cities among the indigenous people today.
There will be a specialized department to operate a large number of farms around the giant city, and they will even spend some money to hire natural druids and natural mages to use natural magic to grow the fields.
The food produced by these farms directly controlled by Jucheng will be used as reserves in Jucheng, which is the so-called "ballast stone".
Zong Shen deeply agrees with this, and now is a good opportunity to prepare the "ballast stone" for the territory.
His current points balance is: 1077689 points.
In the past few hours, he had gained hundreds of additional survival points.
With such a huge amount of points, he can freely consider how to redeem them.
According to earth's land standards, one hectare of land is equal to fifteen acres.
It is almost equivalent to eleven pieces of intermediate-grade farmland.
Zong Shen thought for a moment, then waved his hand and exchanged 110 construction drawings for intermediate fertile fields.
A total of 77,000 points were consumed!
This also brought his points balance down to just over 1 million points.
I have to say that this wave of exchanges can be considered a big deal.
This made Zong Shen feel somewhat distressed.
However, after the territory has these intermediate-level farmland drawings, it will definitely be of great help to the future agricultural development. They will be used as the territory's future private land to quickly produce food, ensuring that the territory can have no worries.
Combined with the special effects of fertile land, various agricultural techniques, and the manufacturing drawings of [Stanley Compound Fertilizer] he had previously obtained, the yield of the private land will definitely be unimaginably high.
I just don’t know the quality of crop seeds in this world.
I hope the yield per unit area will not be too low!
However, Zong Shen can rely on various magic and effects to breed quickly.
By selecting the best from the best and performing three to five generations quickly, the quality of seeds can be effectively improved.
Grain seeds cultivated in this way can basically guarantee that they will not degrade within two to three years of planting.
In fact, Zong Shen had already had a very clear plan in mind for the development of farming in the territory.
From this moment on, it can be regarded as laying the foundation for the future agricultural development of the territory.
So from this point of view, this point is still worth spending!
Zong Shen could not always rely on plundering and purchasing to satisfy the territory's food consumption.
Currently, there are only a few thousand people in his territory.
When the territory becomes a state city, the population will reach tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands.
Daily food consumption will be an astronomical figure.
If there is no good planning ahead of time, the territory will inevitably encounter serious development bottlenecks.
He doesn't want to get stuck with food.
Therefore, everything he does now is for the long-term development of the territory.
Only by completing the farming and free people reforms as soon as possible can we successfully break through the bottleneck of population and expansion.
Don’t let food become the shortcoming of your territory!
These 110 [Intermediate Fertile Land Construction Drawings] are equivalent to about ten hectares of specially enhanced land.
The long-term benefits it can bring are absolutely huge.
The most important thing is that it can effectively make up for the shortcomings of the territory, allowing Zong Shen to fully expand the territory and absorb the population without any worries!
After exchanging the farmland drawings, he closed the [Basic Drawings] category option.
Opening the [Defense Blueprint], he planned to spend more points here.
His ideal is to turn Lord Survival into Lord Tower Defense!
This time, the defensive buildings provided in the [Defense Drawings] category still only have optional levels from level one to level four, and the types are similar to before.
But for Zong Shen, this is enough!
This time his redemption goal is very clear.
Zong Shen is going to exchange for some more characteristic defense towers classified by the demon clan, which is the [Tower of Chaos] series that he has been thinking about for a long time!
