Until he found Squirtle, asked Squirtle to help him find some orb silk spiders, and then turned around with Mark to walk inside Winter Town, he didn't think much about the city wall.
To build or not to build? Building a city wall will make the town safer. In this era, the function of city walls is still very important. Even the newly established Shuanghan Town in the northeast built a simple fence with wood. p>
After a year of development this year, the wall may be upgraded. If it is not built, David simply does not want to waste that time and energy, because even if the wall is built, it will most likely be demolished.
According to his current plan, only the Winter Fortress where he lives will have a high wall around it, but the meaning of this high wall is different from that of the city wall. It is more to ensure that David, as a lord, has a private area that will not be disturbed.
Space.
As for the entire Winter Town, it is still in an open state. The residents of the town are not surprised why there is no city wall in a town located on the border of the kingdom.
Because the construction site constantly reminds people here that the town is still under construction.
"Still confused?"
"Yeah!"
"I think the fact that you are struggling means that you have a clear answer in your heart." Mark hit the key point. If David hadn't resisted building the city wall in his heart, there would be no need for him to struggle with this kind of thing.
"You're right, I do have a clear answer in my heart." David nodded. The city in his dream had no shadow of a city wall at all, and he was confident in the development speed of his territory.
The most important thing is that he is confident in the defense of his territory. When necessary, David can perform the Great Summoning Technique. The summoned targets include but are not limited to: members of the Avengers; the Autobots currently on the earth;
The Knights of the Hand and the Army of the Kingdom of Lordaeron; the Ranger Troops of Quel'Thalas.
With this lineup, he really didn't believe that anyone could take down Winter Town. Instead of spending time, energy and resources to build a city wall, it would be better to build more residences and then rent these houses at low prices to attract more civilians to come to Winter Town.
As for settling in Winter Town... When the various infrastructures in Winter Town are completed and the current residents in the town have their own residences, he will no longer provide free food and accommodation.
From then on, Winter Town will officially terminate its current model and transition to a more normal state. Craftsmen will receive reasonable remuneration for their work in the future, including David, the lord, who will recruit craftsmen in non-emergency situations.
Provide reasonable remuneration.
The trading of various commodities must also be normalized, and the canteen will naturally be gone. In the future, villagers will cook at their own homes. If they want to improve their lives, they can go to the restaurant promised to Jonah, or other
Hotels and restaurants opened by people.
Of course, normalization of everything means that David will start collecting taxes. In addition to the basic agricultural tax, David also needs to set a relatively reasonable commercial tax standard.
All kinds of messy thoughts popped up in his head, diverting his thoughts thousands of miles away. It wasn't until Mark patted himself gently that he came back to his senses.
"What?" Without waiting for Mark to answer, David saw the shadow not far away and knew why Mark suddenly interrupted his random thoughts: "Who is coming?" David looked at it, they were now
Located on the west side of Winter Town, just ahead is the farmland that Mark often uses to test new crops, and further ahead is Jonah's canteen.
He and Mark took a few more steps forward and stood in front of the shadow. Soon they could clearly see the appearance of the person coming.
He was a young man, seemingly not yet twenty years old. The two looked at each other, and then nodded in unison: Well, I know this person!
Looking back at the young man, the young man was looking around strangely. He didn't understand how he suddenly walked from the city to the wild?
"Hello!"
"Hello, welcome to Winter Town, I am the mayor David, and this is Mark."
"My name is Peter Parker, may I ask where this place is?" Peter Parker asked, making David and Mark look at each other again. Mark even asked: "Are you coming or should I come?" After seeing David
After making a "please" gesture to him, he began to educate the famous man in front of him about his current situation.
David stood aside quietly, admiring the various interesting reactions of this 'acquaintance'. When Peter heard that not only was he far away from Queens, but he was no longer even on the earth he was familiar with, that incredible reaction seemed...
Very interesting.
After Mark finished introducing the situation, Peter Parker put his head on his hands, still looking in disbelief: "You are actually kidding me, right?"
"You can try to walk back, thinking about returning to your own world." David pointed in the direction of the Winter River: "You will know that we are not joking." Peter looked back and looked not far away.
On the wide river surface, I decided to try the method David said.
Whether it is true or false, you will know it once you try it. There is no need to get entangled here. But before I had time to move, I was startled by the translucent shadow that suddenly appeared in front of me: "What is this?" p>
"Oh, it seems that another one has arrived." Mark looked at the new shadow in surprise, and then said to Peter next to him: "If you are not in a hurry, you can wait here for a while... By the way,
This is how you appeared just now."
"You said I appeared like this just now?" Peter began to believe that he had really traveled to another world, otherwise it would be difficult to explain the scene before him.
What kind of high technology is used? He doesn't think anyone would go to such great lengths just to fool an ordinary high school student like himself: "What is the principle? Quantum transmission? Or wormhole?"
"It should be a special ability exerted by a certain mysterious existence." When he said this, Mark glanced at David, but David continued to look at the shadow as if he hadn't heard anything.<
/p>
Not long after, the phantom gradually took on a clear appearance and soon turned into a real person.
It was a young girl with long platinum hair and a black hairpin on her head. Different from Peter Parker's behavior just now, this girl suddenly found herself in a strange place with three strange men standing in front of her.
At that time, I immediately took a few big steps back.
"Who are you?" The girl looked around again, feeling strange that she suddenly came to such a desolate place, but she acted very calmly and did not do anything extreme: "What is this place?" This time, Mark took the lead.
He made a "please" gesture to David. Peter looked at the two people and realized that these two people had met many people from other worlds, otherwise they would not be so skilled.
"Hello, this is Winter Town, and I am the mayor David." Seeing that the other party was a young girl, David comforted the other party appropriately: "Don't worry, we don't have any ill intentions, you will appear here, yes
Because of a mysterious power..." After briefly introducing the situation in Winter Town, David also told how to leave here, and never approached the other party from beginning to end, which made the girl opposite a little bit.
Let down your guard a little.
Finally, David pointed to Peter next to him: "This Peter Parker has just arrived here like you, and he is about to try to leave."
"What? Me? Oh, actually I already believed what you said before." Peter pointed at the girl in front of him. Seeing that strange sight, he somewhat believed that he had really come to another world.
The young girl opposite looked around again and asked David uncertainly: "I only need to walk in this direction, thinking about going home, and can I leave here?"
"Yes!"
"If I want to come here, I can come back anytime?"
"That's right!" The young girl did not hesitate and simply turned around and walked away. Her figure quickly turned into a shadow and disappeared.
"Wow!" Peter exclaimed. Seeing the magical sight again, he truly believed what Mark said to him before: "It's so magical!" Then he asked David, the mayor: "This town
Are there many people like me from other worlds?" David nodded and pointed directly at Mark next to him.
Mark coughed twice and solemnly re-introduced: "Formal introduction, Mark Watney, a member of the Mars Exploration Project, an unlucky guy who was accidentally left alone on Mars to survive." p>
"No way..." Peter stretched out his hand in disbelief and shook Mark's hand: "Are you an astronaut who landed on Mars? Are you still trapped on Mars?"
"Uh-huh!"
"So, if you take the initiative to return to your own world now, you will return to Mars?"
"That's right." Mark remembered that he could now take people to his own world: "How about it? Are you interested in visiting Mars?"
"Are you telling the truth?" Peter was surprised and happy. He still didn't quite believe that he would encounter such a lucky thing: "Can you really take me to visit Mars? We have just met. Don't you worry about what will happen?
A bad influence?"
"I'm very confident about you." Mark looked at his right hand that had not been released: "Peter Parker, the famous Spider-Man...or should I call you the Amazing Spider-Man?" When Mark and David saw this face
, when coupled with the name Peter Parker, the identity of this person is confirmed.
In addition, the Peter Parker in front of him does not wear glasses, which means that the Peter in front of him has obtained super powers.
Peter, who was suddenly called out on his secret identity, showed a little panic and didn't know how to respond for a while.
Fortunately, the young girl who left earlier appeared again and helped him out.
"It's incredible. I can actually travel to another world freely!" After marveling, the girl looked at the three men looking at her and introduced herself with a smile: "I was a little rude just now. After all, this kind of thing is too much.
Unbelievable. I'm so happy to be here and meet you, I'm Gwen Stacey."
