As the government official of the town hall, Ruvid was responsible for all matters of all sizes, so he was naturally the last supplementary speech.

"The construction of 32 houses in Xintun has been completed, all the ones on the north side of the street have been completed, and two buildings have been built on the south side.

The gravel pavement, drainage ditches, and the public toilets you specifically told them are all given priority. Just wait for the remaining 28 buildings to be built, and the first phase of the Xintun Planning Area will be completely completed.”

After dealing with Odin for a long time, Ruvid also learned a lot of new words that he heard, such as public toilets, first phase engineering, etc.

Not only did he say it himself, but he also often told the construction workers that whenever a new word appeared in Ruvid's mouth, the workers knew that they had learned it from the Lord of the Castle.

For this reason, a trend of imitation has also emerged in the town.

"The residents like the house you designed very much. Anyone who has visited hopes that they can live in such a good house. Someone has begun to inquire about the price of the new house."

"Oh, is that right! It seems that Xintun is still very attractive.

Teacher Ruvid, what price do you think we should set to be the right one?”

"Well... I have also carefully considered the price of the house. Last time I went to Poppy Town with the caravan, I asked Consul Brue that if the location factor is excluded, it would take at least 2 to 3 gold coins to own such a house in Poppy Town.

I think in Jishi Town, 1 gold and 50 silver is a very suitable price.”

For a lord, the cost of building a house is actually very low, especially in Jishi Town.

The land and materials are all used on site. Only some auxiliary materials need to be purchased, and only a little money is enough.

In addition, the biggest cost is the workers' remuneration. 30 skilled construction workers can build a house within two days, so the worker's cost is about 20 silver coins.

Then count the time required for a street and public facilities, and spread it together.

Basically, the cost of a house is around 25 silver coins.

The price is 1 gold and 50 silver, which is very reasonable.

"No one in Jushi Town can afford this price, right?"

Odin looked at Luken again.

"Luken, how much savings do you have in your hands now."

"Go back to the Lord, I have a savings of fifty silver coins, most of which were earned after taking the position of captain of the tour.

Before that, I had only a dozen silver coins at most.”

Luken did not get married, and his parents passed away early, and he was the kind of person who fed and his whole family was not hungry. In addition, he lived a frugal life and had excellent hunting skills.

Only then can we slowly save more than a dozen silver coins. After serving as the captain of the tour, we even had a high daily salary of one silver coin, which has now increased to two.

In this case, Luken still needs to wait two months to save enough money for a house. Without the position of captain of the tour, he may find it difficult to save this huge amount of money in his life.

Through Luken, it can basically be judged that 90% of residents have savings below 3 silver coins, and the remaining 1% of residents will not have more than 15 silver coins.

After all, Odin has been here a little shorter, and the economy has only been developing for four months, which has just caused residents to breathe from hunger.

It is impossible for them to take out such a huge sum of money at once.

"Just follow this price, it can't be lower, but the method should be more flexible, and there is no need to let residents pay it in one lump sum.

You can pay slowly in monthly units. As long as you pay on time and do not default, you can move in in advance.

After all, the development of the town is obvious to all. As long as you work hard, you will not be afraid of not having money to make.

Just like a construction worker, the daily salary of 35 copper coins can be left with 10 copper coins, right?”

Luken, who was standing beside him, nodded and said, "It's totally OK."

"A day, 10 copper, 3 silver per month, a year is 36 silver. This is still saved without affecting life. If there are other laborers at home, you can save more.

I think it is appropriate to pay off all the debts in less than three or four years.

Of course, the development of the town is not stagnant. There will be more and more business opportunities and jobs, and maybe it will not take that long to earn this amount of money."

Ruvid nodded repeatedly in agreement and spoke.

"Sir, you have said before that you can also use old houses to deduct part of them, so that residents will be under less pressure."

"Haha, yes, just trade the old for new ones and subsidize a part of the difference, and the difference can also be paid in installments.

The old houses were sorted out and used to resettle serfs. The houses in the three villages were so dilapidated that it only took a heavy rain overnight and the shack would collapse.

These serfs are my precious property. One less is a huge loss. Do you understand, Mr. Ruvid.”

"Does serfs need copper coins to live in?"

Ruvid nodded to show his understanding, and then asked again.

"There is no need for old houses, but the old houses are limited and certainly not everyone can have them. Just as the gift of the lord, it will be rewarded to the most diligent and pious serfs."

As the saying goes, free things will not be cherished, so Odin temporarily thought of a reward mechanism to increase the existence value of old houses.

If the serfs feel that this is a hard-won thing, they will naturally cherish what they have gained. Of course, as a role model, they will be envied by other serfs, working harder to farm, and they will also receive the gifts of the Lord.

The four-person meeting took place for a long time, and the content involved almost covers all aspects of the town.

As the city hall hired more and more workers, Ruvid recruited two literate apprentices and followed Melalola to learn how to deal with government affairs.

A new batch of poultry has also been saved and needs to be transported to Poppy Town for transactions.

After the trade route is opened, there will definitely be caravans coming to trade. Everyone discussed how to keep Jushi Town attractive to the caravans for a long time.

Finally, two plans were determined.

First, at the intersection where you enter the town, a trading market is built, and the caravans you come to can be used for rent free of charge.

Such a free place for caravans to rest, repair, sell and acquire is very attractive.

The second is to create town specialties.

The caravan's profitability method is to combine buying and selling, bring common resources in a place to scarce places and earn the difference.

Generally speaking, fresh items and essential daily necessities in big cities are sold to small places, and then the local cheap output is brought back to big cities for a price increase.

The one-way purchasing ability of Jushi Town cannot meet the needs of the caravan. You may not come again after you come once.

Therefore, Jushi Town needs a sufficiently attractive resource, just like my sister Oviya’s Flint Mine, let these caravans come to buy it and then sell some goods by the way.

Kunas proposed to sell bellflower on the public. Indeed, as long as it is a magic plant, it has extraordinary appeal and may also cause caravans to rush to buy it at high prices.

But Odin denied it.

The greatest value of the magic plant is not gold coins, but voice and connections. He has already experienced this in Fengsangling.

Enough magic potions impressed Count Kmath. If he brought gold coins to say he wanted to buy advanced meditation methods, then Count Kmath would not even look at him directly.

Luken felt that the materials on the monsters or beasts should be used to attract the caravan.

90% of the area of ​​the giant stone collar is covered by jungle, with rich animal resources, wild beast meat, fur, monster crystal core, special monster parts, etc. These are all high-quality resources.

However, the town has not yet had the strength to go deep into the Stone Ridge to hunt monsters on a large scale, so it has to give up.
