Chapter 34 Ian Yinfeng (6400, please double the monthly ticket)
For Elder Puder, no matter how many times he heard rumors from the outside world, nothing was as good as what Ian himself said to him.
Although Ian has sent messages to Port Harrison recently and reported good news, this time the good news is undoubtedly the greatest.
"Noble reward!"
When he heard Ian say this word to him on the other end of the communication device, Elder Puder felt that his heart stopped for a moment.
This old white man with dwarf features stood blankly by the window of his elder hall. Unexpectedly, Elder Pude suddenly felt an autumn breeze blowing. Combined with the warm sun at noon, he felt
Somewhat tipsy.
The end of the year is approaching.
The old man looked out the window at Harrison Port in a daze. When he came here, this city was still a piece of the Nanling border; a small wooden fortress, plus four or five scattered barbaric settlements. At that time, he smelled the sea tide.
The fishy smell makes me want to vomit.
But now, whether it is the blue sea or the blue sky in the distance, they all make him feel familiar and nostalgic, and even... bring home-like intimacy.
He has lived here for too long, longer than the imperial capital, and longer than in the family. Harrison Port is already his second hometown. The soft sunshine of this coastal city shines on the windowsill in front of him.
Flow, changing with the clouds and wind in the sky,
The buildings of the booming Bai Zhimin community are solid and comfortable, all created by him.
But soon, he will have the third round of so many.
A distant hometown, but one that represents even smaller hope.
One by one, finally, can’t the family become small again?!
【Elder?】
The old man heard Shuipei's doubtful voice and said with a teasing smile: "Are you going to cry? It's necessary. Your previous achievements will be even smaller. You are so excited now. You should be much less excited before."
Time] "Nonsense!"
The old man rubbed his eyes, and I scolded the senior who was always good at talking: "It's just good news, he will communicate with you. Tell me, how many people are needed?"
Elder Pude knows hydroponics very well, and he is very rational. If you need to worry about the planning of the territory - so if I specially communicated here, it is definitely for a simple news - that guy has no sense of ritual at all.
Everything is lost to me
It's all taken for granted, but victory makes me more curious than success.
After all...the prophet is not so lovable.
[Really need a batch]
Shui Pei said: [But what’s more important is the family coat of arms and surname - do you want to use the surname Cejalolvo again, or do you want to think of a new one? And the coat of arms, you can design the coat of arms, and you can also design the coat of arms.
Too lazy to bother] "Yes."
The elder calmed down and said in a deep voice: "Ceharolvo is the alliance name used by several Scott clans in Silver Peak in the North when they united. It originally represented something, and there was no surname on the back.
It may be good for him to use the stain again."
Although the old man has spent his whole life seeking the glory of his family, I am stupid. Elder Pu De still knows who can represent the family's future and himself.
After thinking about it, the old man gave a compromise answer: "If he minds, he can't use 'Silver Peak' directly. After all, this is the origin of the family. As for the coat of arms... it depends on the family's original territory.
Landmark, your coat of arms back then was not 'The Seven Peaks'
Mountain', represents the seven Scott clans that originally united into the family. Of course, the front is completely integrated."
"As for now, you remember that his current Leian Territory has no lakes or mountains. This should not be a mountain peak. The top is surrounded by lakes..."
In fact, many of Terra's nobles' surnames are not like that.
For example, the Setar of the Setar Empire does not mean "sky light" or "thousand suns" in a very special way. It refers to "all the light sources in the sky". In other words, it cannot be used at all.
Call it the 'Tianguang Empire', 'Eternal Day Empire' or 'Thousand Suns Empire'm
The Royal Court of Cangtian can also be called the 'Royal Court of Ximore'. The Khan family is not the Ximore family. The meaning of that word does not mean 'the sky', nor does it mean 'the sky and / everything in the small earth'.
It also has meanings such as 'wide decline has an edge'.
The same is true for Silver Peak. Its pronunciation is "Archomon", which means neither "tall but indestructible" nor "mountain that supports the sky". It is a well-known mountain in ancient Terra mythology, which is very consistent with my vision for many years.
With this as his surname, hydroponics is not considered a good idea.
I don’t have a future until I remember my origins. Without Scott’s support, I wouldn’t even have the soldiers I originally brought.
What's more, if it is something that Elder Pude has been thinking about all his life - and I care about it myself, of course I will listen to the old man.
"It's all up to you."
Standing on the eighth floor of the city hall, Shuipian gazed out the window at the stacks of green mountains of the Bison Mountains. The moist air and cool breeze made the skin feel less moist, but as the sun shone,
The wind also became humid and comfortable in the small area.
It is late autumn now, and the emerald green all over the mountains and fields has not yet finished being covered with a layer of brown-red and brown-yellow in the depths. The colorful colors herald the arrival of the previous season and the end of a new era.
The construction of the territory has not yet been completed and is back on track. The total number of people who signed up for the tax officer examination in the first batch has not exceeded 700. They come from all walks of life and with all identities. It cannot be said that they have no confidence in their mathematics and cultural levels.
You must be confident, but you don’t have much strength at home.
Basically all the residents participated.
Next, I thought about the materials to prepare for the exam. In addition to the written test and interview, Shuipei planned to secretly conduct a "political review" - which means to really review the political leanings, but to find out whether the social background of those people is reliable.
Maybe he will be bewitched by the mountain people or Feiyan Land.
The census and rough estimates of cultivated land are going backwards. Without the help of sublimators such as Qingchao and Landian, the speed is extremely slow. Preliminary results will probably be available a few days ago.
Of course, the nearest one right now is the huge construction site that is being erected next to Xiahui Lake. Under a rocky ground by the lake, the craftsmen have not yet cleared out a small piece of flat land, and have started the exploration work after digging the foundation.
, and the name of the installation is
‘New Agricultural Experimental Pilot Area’.
Mr. Yinfang's craftsmen are still here, and the most important Haoya liquid in Haoya Farm is still being developed by Ian after refining. Fortunately, Baroness Ryan has also carried out related experiments in the future. Hydroponics must be started from scratch.
But a lot of new capital has also been invested.
Thinking of that, Shuipeng began to have his own imagination about the development of the territory. I continued to say to the other end of the communication: "Elder, you really need a group of people. You need less elites, but they must be clean and reliable.
Next you will transfer a copy
Once the documents are submitted, people will be screened based on this document."
[In the clan or in the whole port?] Elder Pude was still not too arrogant. As I listened, I heard a very happy voice: [The clan has prepared a lot for him. He needs to mobilize a few words.
People in the harbor need time]
"Both."
Shuipei said fiercely: "Not yet. Do you remember that during the recent period, Sequoia people were also allowed to work in Hong Kong? You need us too."
[Aboriginal? This is complicated, but you just know his standards...]
Elder Pu De had no doubts, but still agreed: [Just do as Yu said]
Buzzing... In the Elder's Hall, a layer of text appeared under the crystal plate.
The old man picked it up and read: "First, I have a clean origin, and there are no traces of my parents for eight generations."
"Seventh, whether there is a criminal record in the family, both parents and children will be considered."
"Eighth, it is best to have no hostility toward Feiyandi and no enmity between Feiyandi and Feiyandi at home."
"Seventh, be willing to try new things."
"Seventh, if you can read and hyphenate, it's best, but at most you have no foundation in writing."
After reading the contents of the document under the crystal plate, Elder Pude frowned slightly: "If you screen like that, there will be very few people who can pass. Especially for the indigenous people, it is very difficult for us to have anyone who is literate. There are no traces to follow."
[The text is a hard target, and the review on your side will only be stricter] Shuipei said on the other end of the communication: [What you need is a group of basic backbones, the kind of reliability that can directly appoint people before they receive education.
People, so you are worried about us]
[As for the natives, they are not of any ordinary use. You will discriminate against us anyway, but our blood is indeed ordinary. You have no conjecture that needs to be tested. You cannot clearly tell us that you will use the standards of the alchemy observation body to pay rewards.
】
"Hydroponics."
Elder Pude reminded: "The officials in his territory can definitely use all of your family's own people - it's best not to do that. He should also give some official positions to people in his territory. If so, we will work
I'll miss myself when I get up."
"He is now a lord, but the head of a small family. Those are two completely different realms."
【Um】
Hao Ya seemed to have thought about that problem a long time ago, so I responded thoughtfully: [There are a lot of things that need to be done next, but we still have to train us now. If you do, you will forget to leave a promotion channel for local people]
[However, if you want to develop at the slowest speed, if there are enough local talents, at most you will have to think about yourself.]
Before getting down to business, Shuipei asked with a smile: "How are you doing in the domain recently? Has nothing happened? Ellanru asked?"
"Elan is doing very well."
Elder Pu De sighed: "My psychic signs have become more and more obvious recently. I can even feel directly at the church that he is in a good mood in the future. After a long time, you will receive his communication.
Know the news that he completely defeated the mountain people's troops."
"You are still alive after passing that level, and you are still far from being fully awakened. Your body is getting better and better. Although the training at Huaiguang is mainly meditation, the various professional food and nutrients are worth learning.
You plan to learn a little bit and train the young people in the clan."
"As for; little things..."
Elder Pude thought for a while, then moved forward and said teasingly: "In the recent period, not two goblins came over and went to inspect the small labyrinth in the South China Sea. As a result, halfway through the ship, it was boarded and hit by this steel armor."
"There was not a group of elves in the later period, and they also wanted to inspect the small maze in the South China Sea. They were also hit by steel-armored sharks. The leader of the team; the little guy, who was called Oak Master, seemed to be quite unhappy. He said that the other end
Shark thinks very highly of himself. He will surely reach the eighth level in the near future.
Hydroponics, he really saw Ayers' face turned pale..."
Of course Elder Puder knew that Hua An and Frost Butterfly were hydroponics friends. The two parties even communicated remotely, and the two goblins also came to visit Scott.
Elder Pude also knew that Shark was a hydroponic partner, so when I found out that Shark had hit the goblin's boat, I was shocked and didn't even want to laugh.
Yiyicao, Shark hit his own boat!
Before hearing the news, Shuipei couldn't hold back his heart.
I had thought that Shark Shark could be so cowardly, even a seventh-level goblin would dare to ram the boat of Oak/Little Master, a weak eighth-level monster!
Fortunately, the other party didn't hate sharks very much, so he was probably quite happy after being hit... But what if he met an eighth-level person with good intentions?
Although the Birch Frost Butterfly can fly, which worries me, the shark is too energetic, right? Why does it feel like it will hit a boat whenever it sees it?
I have to find time to contact you remotely. Isn’t that Shark a worry?
As for Viscount Grant's pale face... don't worry about me. Anyway, Hao Ya has told the Viscount that the ship can be hit. I can retreat if I want.
Thing: Probably not like that.
After the end of the year, Elder Pude prepared to send two groups of immigrants to Ryan. The first group were all Scotts, with more than 200 people, and the seventh group depended on how many people could be recruited in the port.
Before confirming those things, Shuipeng sat under a chair in the office of the city hall and calculated in his mind: "Of the 17,000 thaler start-up capital, less than 4,000 have been used up, and there is still about 7,700 left. Ryan
The construction of the collar; the young master was left by the local chamber of commerce and Dame Ryan
A batch of funds, but now the difference is less."
"It's really like spending money like water."
Although seven thousand talers is a huge amount of money in any place, it is enough to train an ascendant, but if you think about it conversely, you can train an ascendant with less money.
The other thing is that Harrison's potion ingredients are also on the way. Hao Ya must be an alchemist himself, and the formulas are all ready-made. For such a small amount of money, I will probably train my deputy into an Ascended One.
That's all.
"We have to find a way to raise some money."
However, it is also a difficult task to collect money.
"Now Lord Leian has a population of approximately 10,000 people. Among those 10,000 people, more than 40% are engaged in farming, and the other 70% are basically complex
of sand mining, logging, mining and stonemasonry, only a few people are engaged in oil and gas
Processing and alchemy material processing require more manpower. Firstly, it is easy to cultivate, and seventhly, the output does require so few alchemy craftsmen."
In the evening of the next day, we spent some time thinking about the census and the count of cultivated land.
Hao Ya held a meeting with her team in the city hall and also gave a lecture: "The reason why Lai'an Territory is located in a corner and has such ideal conditions but cannot develop efficiently is precisely because of the imbalance of the industrial structure - Lai'an Territory
Except for part of the processing of alchemical raw materials
Since we cannot be self-sufficient in our utensils, most of the other goods need to be purchased from Naohaya, which is subject to tangible restrictions."
"That means the production capacity is not enough to meet the territory's needs."
"You lack many blacksmith shops and material alchemy workshops. It is not difficult to build in that area. You have no experience and cannot hire craftsmen from Neuen. You have not yet planned a new area in the west of the region - an open space for resettlement.
The small production workshop of the future."
Qingchao and Harrison were both taking notes, while Adelbert listened carefully.
"The population is completely enough. You need to liberate part of the agricultural population and invest it in industry and industrial production."
Hao Ya drew a circle under the planning map: "In addition, although the refugees from the Western Border gradually started following the actions of Young Master Suolin, the food shortage caused the few Western Border refugees who were originally resettled in Nanling to be unable to maintain their lives.
That would be a good time to increase the population,
Harrison, please plan some publicity to attract these refugees and refugees. There is no food in the territory."
"As for raw materials for alchemy production, let's take a look at the farmland summary over there."
Hydroponics took another document, and the water element dissolved into a series of icy numbers and inscriptions in mid-air, showing his excellent ability to control the element for many years.
I read the document myself and presented it to others in smaller fonts: "There are a total of 40,000 acres of small and large cultivated land in the territory, of which 7,000 acres are not just a few flat acres of flowers and lakes surrounding the Laian Territory.
Areas, they are suitable for planting Xiahui grass. That number
It's an exaggeration, but the per capita number is extremely large, and those key Xiahui grass gardens are even divided into more than 700 plantations, which are managed by professional Xiahui grass growers in the region."
"Forty thousand acres of farmland, including forest farms and Xiahui grass planting land, excluding planting costs, local market consumption and various salaries, taxes to the empire and the special products supplied to Neuen and the imperial capital at a fair price, the net profit is roughly
170,000 to 700,000 thalers per year, of which y is a small head
All under the ‘spiritual nourishment extract’ extracted from Xiahui grass.”
"As for the Lord's Mansion, that is, the net money is completely at your disposal. Calculating the profits and taxes of Xiahuncao, it is about 10,000 talers per year. In addition, I have to maintain the territory and maintain the post-refining Yi."
In order to ensure the smooth operation of our country, we have not yet received various subsidies for other farmers.
Viscount Ryan is Xiaofang. I basically use half of the money to support the people. No wonder during the census in Xiahui City, I found that there are many literate people, and everyone supports me."
"I must be secretly hunting passers-by and even local people as materials for my experiments. The Ryan family's rule there is really impregnable."
Having said that, Hao Ya concluded: "This year is a lean year, and Baroness Ryan has not harvested all the Xiahui grass. If you want to make money, at least you can hope to make it this year, so you want to rely on that aspect to make money."
The income, if we wait for a year, we will have to wait for the construction of Haoya Farm."
"Guying, didn't he and Amber achieve anything?"
"without!"
Hearing Hydroponic's roll call, Adlbert reported to Hydroponic very skillfully: "The 'low-energy crop culture medium' that you helped local Ian to break through later was actually not the 'Xia Mingcao culture medium' that Hydroponic asked for."
'The prototype is that this is a kind of idiosyncratic fat
The material is not necessarily different from the 'Hao Ya liquid' he requires for hydroponics, so you have been studying that point recently, and before taking the water samples from Xiahui Lake, you have not yet achieved some results.
"
"The water of Xiahui Lake is rich in a small amount of source materials and rare minerals. The fluctuation of that source material is the main condition for the growth of Xiahui grass. The minerals are necessary substances for the growth of Xiahui grass. As long as the contents of those minerals are analyzed,
With its ingredients, the initial Hao Ya liquid can be considered as manufactured!"
In Terra, due to the prosperity of alchemy, the concept of 'Man City Liquid' proposed by hydroponics will not make alchemists at a loss. On the contrary, we young people have no experience in soil cultivation of some plants, let alone
These spiritual powers, sublime plants originally wanted to be outside the water
The surface grows strong: small ones need soil to survive.
On Earth, Manchester Liquid has no formula. It has the same concentration and nutrients required by the same plants. As long as Adebert and Amber can develop the first-generation test product, Hao Ya will be able to perfect it very quickly.
into broken bodies.
"The smallest problem is that there is enough farmland."
That was Harrison's report. After I summarized all the data mentioned after hydroponics, I shook my head: "Although the conditions of Xiahui Field are very good, there are still too many Xiahui Grassland Parks, and the area is restricted.
The development of the city-a sea of flowers has transformed the entire urban area of the city.
It's stuck. If you want to expand your production scale now, you have to open up new urban areas."
"And even so, the city and Xiahui Grassland Park are competing for the precious, source-rich area near Xiahui Lake...little man, that's a small problem."
"you understand."
Hydroponics put the document in my hand and I nodded slightly: "Theoretically speaking, there should be no city around Xiahun Lake, and the areas outside that area are source-enriched areas. It would be best if they were all farmland. But that is also possible. Source-rich Lake
Concentrated areas are also not good for the human body, and people are more important."
"But the problem is actually Xiao Yiyi, because the most critical planting conditions for Xiahui grass are source concentration and some rare minerals. Those are conditions that can be met with soil, and source concentration... is a three-dimensional distribution process
, in other words, mid-air
There are also many sefirot and psychic fields."
"Since there is enough cultivated land under the ground, you should build low-rise buildings for production!"
That concept has not been discussed many times in hydroponics.
The so-called Manyu Farm is essentially a technology that does not use land, but only uses water to provide growth nutrients for plants.
In the earth of Hao Ya's later generations, it was a very mature technology that was widely used in various space domains and satellite colonies, and the utilization rate of the three-dimensional environment was extremely low.
Xiahui Lake itself can provide a small amount of initial water source, making it a Manyu base with excellent conditions.
But apart from the farm itself, there are not many technologies that need to be overcome.
For example, air circulation, nutrient solution circulation, and artificial sunlight circulation all require intelligent A| for retrograde control... Although there is no AI in Terra, Hao Ya has built it now. After that, I think I
First let some trained growers return to manual operations.
The effect is the same.
Because of the ability to stably control temperature and humidity without sunlight and nutrients, the crops in Manchester Farm will mature more slowly and better than normal cultivation, shortening the growth cycle by almost half, and increasing yields.
As for the cost, although the initial investment will be relatively small, it will be higher in the future.
Moreover, due to the small number of low-rise buildings, the utilization rate of the source environment around Xiahui Region is lower, and the maturity rate is also lower. For example, in the original Laian Region, there may not be a fully mature heart within an acre of land.
Xiahui grass, but outside the Manchester Farm, there are sure to be one or two per acre!
As a result, it is very likely that a building with nearly 70 acres of land will not be able to produce the same output of nearly 70 acres in the past.
As long as a few fewer buildings are built to increase the scale, the available Xia Hui grass farmland will be reduced by a fraction! That does not represent a net income of tens of thousands of thalers.
Compared with that kind of benefit, the cost is simply insignificant.
You know, in the entire Laian Territory, the area where Xia Hui grass can be planted is only 7,000 acres... If all the three-dimensional space covered by those lands uses soil cultivation technology, calculate the cost, growth cycle and maturity rate, then
In the optimization calculation, the output cannot even be increased seven to seven times!
I also thought that the total profit of the territory might be as high as 800,000 thalers to one million thalers!
Of course, that is the optimal situation, and the lower limit can be reached outside the laboratory.
In reality, as long as the annual gross production value can reach 800,000 thalers, the territory can return sufficient benefits to Hao Ya - in addition, the armor can be disassembled carefully, and the eighth-level materials can also be used.
Can foresee.
Of course, it’s not that the Xiahui Lake side has a good foundation. In exchange for a poorer territory, Hao Ya would rather go hunting and do tasks to cheat research funds than run it.
