Chapter 29 Town Site Selection
Bai Biyoubin clenched his molars tightly and stood on the sea. The water around him surged violently, but he did not dare to make any sign of attack because three or more mental powers locked him firmly.
he.
For most members of the high-ranking elven noble clans or elder clans, the legendary peak is just standard. Eighty percent of them can reach this level when they are about five hundred years old, especially
A large family with a large population such as Foehn Wind and Windfule who value their family members, apart from the fact that there is no Holy Spirit Grand Elder sitting in charge, they are frighteningly powerful.
Therefore, Bai Biyoubin could only show off his senior skills in front of a young rookie like Adrian. Facing the three Green Towers who had just arrived from the Fenfeng Wendefulai family, there was nothing he could do, especially
In a situation where he himself is a sea shepherd who is good at large-scale naval battles, but the opponent is three arcane shooters who are good at single-point instant kills.
If we compare the large-scale killing effect in naval battles, let alone three, even thirty arcane shooters may not be able to match Bai Biyubin. But now that the two sides are facing each other, it is to give Bai Biyubin three more courages.
He also didn't dare to face off against an arcane archer of the same level, as the opponent would be able to kill him in an instant simply by relying on his abilities.
In the end, under the cold gazes of the three arcane shooters on the side, Bai Biyoubin paid 1,200 magic crystals and property worth 1,800 magic crystals in dejection and left, without even giving Adrian a threat or hatred.
His eyes didn't even dare.
The price Adrian paid was just an oath to order, not to reveal the encounter with the Black Bone Pirates on the beach, and the fourteen-star flag and the Black Bone Pirate Flag that were originally hung on the two masts of the pirate ship.
Adrian, who originally planned to sell the ship, suddenly changed his mind, because after prying open the deck, the white goblins and bugbears discovered that the ship's keel was actually made of light iron wood. In the spirit of recycling waste, Adrien
Derrian finally decided that it would be the greatest waste to keep the ship and let Bai Biyubin sink it.
The three tribesmen who were on duty did not stay long. They just counted the results of the beheadings and gently told Adrian to pay more attention to his own safety, and then left.
They are obviously very satisfied with Adrian, this outstanding junior. Apart from Aragund, facing Bai Bijubin this time is the most satisfying thing for them. Tide Dolanei owes Foehn Windwind Fulai
Seventeen lives.
Don't think that the Foehn Windflees are being extreme. If the Lich Fleet had defeated the Tidal Dolanei's defenses, the Foehn Windflees would not have complained even if they had paid 170 lives, but that witch fleet was
The demon fleet took advantage of Tidal Dolanei's incompetence and mediocrity, so it's no wonder that Foehn Windflei wanted to humiliate him again when he had the opportunity.
The three Green Towers were about to leave, and Adrian didn't hold back too much. He just sat on the beach, accompanied and guarded by his attendants, until the white goblins and bugbears removed all the light rails that could be dismantled from the pirate ship.
After the wood was removed, he ordered everyone to retreat into the forest and set up camp again where Alfred and others first set up camp.
It was a leisurely day. For the first time in three months after leaving the Nibelungen, Adrian did not practice any practice at all. He did not even take a look at the Cauldron of Creation. After finding all his followers, he returned to his home.
Comfort zone, relax a little and give myself a day off.
Just after dinner, all the leaders were informed to go to their tents and the first meeting of the Adrian Territory was held, mainly to listen to the opinions of the leaders on the location of the future town.
The bugbears brought back the chair that Adrian had sat on on the beach. It was transported back together with the light iron wood in the Black Bone Pirate's skiff.
Adrian sat on the chair, Alfred stood on Adrian's left hand side, and Vicky stood on the right hand side. The other leaders sat on the floor opposite Adrian. As for Sam, he was sitting with Anna, Charlie and Ai.
Derrian named the Velociraptor Lightning and went to play with him.
Adrian's eyes scanned the faces of every leader on the opposite side, including the archer leader Meili, the hunter leader Orhe, the stone elf mage leader Booker, the earth elf mage leader Lana, the white elf farmer leader Kino, and the bugbear leader.
Tutam, Chief of the White Goblin Tribe, Jigu, this is the team that Adrian will use to build his future territory. They are not bad, at least they look pretty good.
A gentle smile appeared on Adrian's face and he said: "Okay, now that we are all here, Vicky, first introduce the current manpower and material situation in the territory."
As for why it was Vicki who introduced him instead of Alfred, it is because Vicki has been managing all the properties under Adrian's name, and this will continue until the core town of Adrian's territory is established.
After that, only then will the public finance part of the territory be handed over to Alfred.
Alfred had no objection to this, and Vicki had no stage fright either. She elegantly took out a piece of papyrus and read in a loud voice:
"So far, the manpower and materials of Lord Adrian's territory are as follows: the housekeeper Wood Elf Alfred, the maid Vicky, the chef Baggins, the five golden elves who have not yet been reported, and a team of wood elf hunters Orr
Thirty people under Captain He, a team of wind elf archers, twenty people under Captain Meili, a team of white elf farmers, thirty people under Captain Keno, a team of earth elf mages, five people under Captain Lana, stone elves
A team of mages, 5 people below Captain Lana, a tribe of white goblins, 239 people below Chief Chigu, a team of bugbears, 43 people below Captain Tutam, a team of 10 grass sprout goblins, 15 earth dragons, and then
There are the lord's pets and mounts, and by the way, there is also the newly added red-skinned tree shepherd Sam. Lord, these are the human resources you have at your disposal."
Adrian said nothing and motioned to Vicki to continue, and Vicki continued:
"Then there are the materials in the hands of the lord. The initial supplies provided by the family have been announced within the family, and the lord also has two properties. One is the lord's previous savings, and the other is the lord's adult life.
I won’t list all the gifts I received during the ceremony, just the total number of works.”
"The current property in the hands of the lord is roughly: 2550 magic crystals, which includes the cost of the pirate flag purchased by Lord Babius, a batch of tools, one year's rations, other weapons, etc., as for all
The seeds are all in Lord Adrian’s space ring, so I won’t explain them here.”
Adrian nodded, thought for a while and said: "Now that everyone has understood the general situation, everyone should know that our top priority is to establish the core town of the territory, and then we can talk about developing the entire territory.
I can't manage an entire territory by myself. This requires everyone's efforts, so if you have any suggestions, please put them forward."
Alfred thought for a while and said: "Lord, I think the top priority is to determine the location of our future town, but there are no bird-wing elves or horned eagle knights among us, so I'm afraid it will take a long time to select the location of the town.
.”
Adrian said: "This is exactly what I am thinking about. Without the help of flying races or sky knights, site selection will take a long time, but it doesn't matter. I have already included the information from the last family inspection of the entire Nanfeng Forest System.
I drew and recorded the map I made at that time, and I have redrawn parts of my territory. I have delineated a few suitable locations for everyone to discuss."
Adrian took out a huge papyrus map from the space bracelet, handed it to Alfred, and motioned for him to open the map. The leaders gathered around him, but then dispersed. Among them, except
Except for Meili, Olhe and the two mages, they are basically illiterate. It is difficult to recognize their own names, let alone understand the map.
Those who could understand started a heated discussion, while those who couldn't understand stayed aside in embarrassment. Seeing this situation, Adrian decided that after the town was built, he must conduct a literacy campaign like he did in his previous life.
He does not want to implement any policy of obscuring the people. The essence of this world is power, and as long as the high-ranking elves who control power do not have problems for a day, Adrian's status will be unshakable.
Finally, after discussions with Alfred and others, they decided to recommend three sites to Adrian for in-depth investigation.
The first place is about forty or fifty kilometers upstream from their current location along the Opal River. There is a huge valley there, enough for tens of thousands of people to live, and it is close to the huge water source of the Opal River, and
Don't worry about water source problems in future plantations, magic plantations or even arcane plantations.
Moreover, the mountains and rivers on both sides of the valley can protect the territory from possible storms in summer and autumn, minimizing the losses from natural disasters.
Of course, it is not without its shortcomings. There are two shortcomings. The first point is that there are no proven mineral deposits nearby, including iron ore and silver mines. This will restrict the development of the territory. In the future, all ores may need to be purchased from outside.
.
The second point is that the place is a valley after all, and its area is limited. If Adrian's territory develops smoothly, the land will become a constraint in the future.
But Adrian thought carefully and decided to send a team of people to conduct a detailed inspection of the valley first. He had his own ideas in doing so, because it was marked on the map that a quartz sand mine was found in that valley.
That's a good thing, it can burn glass. In this world where crystals are very expensive, glass should be able to create some value. What's more, Adrian was the owner of an art store in his previous life, so he was very good at playing tricks.
The location of the core town in the territory has been initially decided. If nothing else happens, it should be the valley beside the Opal River, although detailed investigation is still needed.
Alfred then asked another question:
