Just like two little secretaries, waiting at the side.
Doris, who has always been undisciplined, rarely showed a correct expression.
In just a few days, the climate here has undergone earth-shaking changes.
After Zong Shen finished speaking, he took out the loader mecha.
He personally took charge of driving and took Doris and Mariel to the living area in the southeast of the territory.
That is the most important territory in the Winter Challenge.
It is also a place where most of the people in the territory take refuge from the cold.
The distance of three kilometers is neither close nor far.
After spending five or six minutes, Zong Shen stopped beside the living area of the loader mecha.
Zong Shen had only watched from a distance before, but when he got closer, he realized that even a [medium-sized bathhouse] had been built here.
With the bathhouse, the residents no longer have to worry about bathing.
And this thing is similar to a hot spring hut, it can also be regarded as a source of water.
The water runes embedded in the building can condense the water element.
This kind of magic building is still very efficient.
On Earth, it would be much more troublesome to establish a city water supply system than here.
You need to first find a relatively clean water source with a large flow near the city.
Then build water plants and water pipelines.
Only then can purified tap water be delivered to thousands of households.
Magic has the superiority of magic.
Technology also has the efficiency of technology.
Facts have proved that in this world of swords and magic, a complete system has been formed.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to form an ultra-quantized giant city with a population of tens or even hundreds of millions.
To form a large city, the most fundamental thing is that productivity must keep up.
There must be food and resources to feed such a large population.
Currently, most of the residential buildings in the living area are [second-level residential buildings].
Only about one-third are [three-story stone houses].
Compared with the original [first-level straw shed].
[Second-level house] It is better in terms of area and appearance.
The thatched shed has almost no air leakage from all sides and only has one roof.
The houses are just standard wooden huts.
The main frame is made of thick logs, all fixed with hemp rope.
The walls are made of half-round logs.
The round surface faces outward and the flat surface faces inward. The whole surface is polished very smoothly, leaving no gaps.
Only two movable wooden windows are reserved.
The foundation part is made up of pieces of stone.
The roof is also made of logs, not a pitched roof, but a flat roof.
There is absolutely no problem with the sealing of this second-level house.
Once the heater is lit in the house, a warm environment can be ensured.
[Three-story stone house] Compared with other folk houses, it is stronger and more spacious.
The biggest difference between the two is that the main building material of the stone house is stone.
The frame is also made of wood, and the stones fit tightly together.
All gaps are filled with yellow clay.
The clay has completely dried and feels rough to the touch.
If you touch it hard, some dirt can be rubbed off.
As a building with a solidity value of 800 points, it is not as good as the residential buildings in Bangcheng.
But I don’t know how much better it is than a straw shed.
There are also windows reserved in the stone house, but they are not movable.
Such windows must be sealed, leaving only a ventilation hole.
Generally speaking, folk houses and stone houses are more than enough for shelter from the cold.
Now as long as the wind blocking wall is built, there won't be any big problems later.
Unless there is a natural disaster caused by wind, the city walls cannot be blown away.
No matter how simple the first-level city wall is, it is still a standard log city wall. Each log is sharpened at both ends, buried one-third underground, and then the surrounding land is compacted.
This kind of wall still has a certain degree of strength.
Although the construction of the lord system is very convenient, it is also simplified a lot.
And the strength of the built buildings is measured by the two data of solid value and building armor value.
But no matter how convenient and simplified it is, all buildings still follow the most basic physical rules.
When Zong Shen and others arrived at the living area.
The third fat man is leading a few farmers to distribute [brand new sheepskin coats].
There are currently 362 farmers in the territory.
Most of the new farmers come from the ruined Odo Village.
There are also 20 farmers with rare talents in reserve.
Now the farmers lined up in three columns, queuing up to receive their sheepskin coats.
The cold wind was howling, and many farmers folded their arms.
In this weather, the coarse linen clothes they wore could no longer prevent the loss of body temperature.
Seeing Zong Shen coming to inspect, all the farmers hurriedly bowed and saluted.
The distribution of sheepskin coats came to a brief standstill.
Zong Shen waved his hand gently.
"No need to be too polite, give out the sheepskin coats as soon as possible."
"I don't want anyone to get sick from the cold."
After hearing his words, the three fat men stood up straight and sped up the distribution speed.
The team's conversion speed increased by 30% out of thin air.
The farmer who received the sheepskin coat put it on him on the spot.
Thick wool can withstand cold winds while ensuring that body heat is not lost quickly.
These jackets are gray in color.
Because it is one-size-fits-all, its hem length can almost reach under the hip bones of a strong man with a height of 180cm.
For those relatively short farmers and peasant women, it can almost be worn as a coat.
In addition to being a living area for farmers, this is also a living area for soldiers for the time being.
Except for the wolf cavalry patrolling the outside and the magicians who went to the [Magic Hall] to meditate and practice.
Most of the warriors are concentrated here, and including those captured warriors, there are now a total of 162 warriors in the territory.
After Zong Shen made some mental calculations, he took out about 6,500 portions of food.
Baggage boxes and baggage barrels were taken out one by one.
"Doris, go and distribute food according to the actual living conditions of each residence."
"It will be distributed according to the standard of three servings per person per day for four days."
"Pick some people to help you."
Doris took a step forward and nodded slowly: "Okay, sir."
She put away the luggage boxes filled with food with a flick of her hand.
He walked quickly to the side and picked out a dozen farmers who had already put on sheepskin coats.
Start distributing food from room to room according to the actual number of residents.
Zong Shen took Mariel to the edge of the living area.
He drew out his sword and drew a fifty- to sixty-meter long line on the ground in three directions: north, east, and south.
"Right here, build three first-order city walls."
"As a temporary windbreak."
"This allows the living area to gain some resistance to extreme weather conditions."
“At the same time, it can also reduce the threat of winter challenges.
After Zong Shen made the plan himself, Mariel did not dare to delay.
Immediately start placing the architectural shadow of the [First-order City Wall].
These shadows are the coordinates of each construction task.
Zong Shen had his arms folded in front of him the whole time, watching Mariel handle it by herself.
Soon a dozen farmers were brought over.
Construction of these windbreak walls began.
With the convenience of the lord system, as long as there are sufficient resources, a ten-meter-long [First-order City Wall] can be built in only 42 minutes.
If the aborigines were to build it, it would require at least a dozen people, who would be busy for a whole day.
That’s why it is said that the lord system gives lords a lot of conveniences and privileges.
Just at this time, Vereesa rode a prairie horse from the outskirts of the territory to the living area.
Just now, she distributed cold-warming supplies to the patrolling wolf cavalry team.
Now she is going to distribute them in the living area. Finally, she has to go to the [Magic Palace] and the [Tailor Shop] and [Blacksmith Shop] in the commercial area.
The dwarf uncle and Alanna will also distribute cold protection materials according to the configuration of the territorial warriors.
Zong Shen happened to have something to do with Veresa, so he waved and called her to his side.
Vereesa wanted to dismount from her horse and salute, but Zong Shen stopped her.
Useless etiquette will only affect the efficiency of action.
Compared with the aboriginal people in this world, Zong Shen is much more pragmatic.
He could feel it when he was a guest in Baron Bezos' castle.
The courteous butler and the considerate maids.
They all have very clear etiquette standards.
However, Baron Bezos was relatively tolerant towards Zong Shen and the others.
There are no etiquette requirements, and there is no precise tone of voice when speaking.
If Zong Shen went to a giant city to meet the great nobles, the complicated etiquette would definitely give him a headache.
No matter how dirty or sinister a nobleman is behind his back, he is still dignified and decent on the surface.
This habit of posturing was deeply ingrained in the entire aristocratic class.
As if after mastering these etiquette.
They can be fundamentally distinguished from those civilians.
Zong Shen looked at Vereesa who was hesitant to speak.
He took the initiative to take out two hundred pairs of rabbit fur boots.
These overboots are made of plush rabbit fur and can be worn directly over combat boots.
Adds warmth to calves and feet.
"These rabbit fur boots will also be distributed."
"Also inform Howie and Doris."
"They have been staying in the living area for the past few days."
"Go to the territorial storage box before noon to pick up a batch of spare supplies."
"Including but not limited to Luna Spring, magic crystal, pine oil blocks, and wood."
"Let them weigh the details themselves."
"In addition, I will leave a loader mecha here."
"A loadbearer mecha with a crawler chassis should be able to travel in cold winter environments."
Zong Shen thought for a moment and once again made additions to the arrangement of the living area.
During the last two stages of winter, Zong Shen was planning to organize some soldiers to go out with him.
The two heroic talents left behind should be enough to cope with the situation in the living area.
It also facilitates subsequent personnel transfers.
Zong Shen currently has five loader mechas left on hand.
He had left one in the mine before, but now he took out another one and gave it to Howie or Doris for backup.
"I understand, sir."
"I will convey your arrangements to them."
Vereesa answered very simply.
He put the loader mecha into his storage compartment.
He gently pinched the horse's belly, turned the horse around, and walked towards Doris, who was handing out food.
Now the layout of the living area has come to an end.
It's not yet 8 o'clock in the morning.
There are still more than four hours before the challenge officially starts at 12 noon.
Zong Shen raised his head and glanced at the hazy sky.
Such gloomy weather made his mood become inexplicably heavy.
Now when I think back to those three days when I first landed in the novice phase, I feel like I was living in paradise.
Facing this unknown world, at least he is still free.
"call…"
Zong Shen exhaled a heavy breath.
Because the outside temperature dropped, it turned into a white gas.
"grown ups…"
Mariel's voice sounded from the side.
With some rare timidity.
"What's wrong?"
Zong Shen asked doubtfully.
"Sir, except for the living area."
"I think we should also take some necessary measures on the pasture."
"Nearly one-third of the cows and ewes in that batch of cattle and sheep are already pregnant."
"In a little while, we will have our first calves and lambs."
"We only need three thermal balls and a large heater."
"This will satisfy the heating problem of the pasture."
Mariel took the initiative to put forward her own suggestions.
Zong Shen had also considered this issue before.
If the cattle and sheep in the pasture are exposed to the cold winter, they will definitely not be able to withstand this round of challenges.
The crops in the farmland don't matter, after all, those primary fertile fields are only more than one acre.
No one could have expected that after experiencing the crypt challenge and this kind of monster challenge.
The Lord system comes directly with a climate type challenge.
A pleased smile appeared on his face.
Because this is the first time Mariel has put forward her own suggestions.
He didn't care whether the advice was useful or not; what he cared about was the initiative of heroic talents.
Before, Mariel was just passively completing his prior instructions.
Although overall it was done pretty well.
But there is always something lacking.
Now it can be regarded as a real breakthrough for initiative.
Mariel's performance made Zong Shen feel good.
The gloom in my heart and the irritability of facing the new challenges that are coming are also gone.
He reached out and rubbed Mariel's head.
He bent down and brought his face to hers.
"You're absolutely right."
"We must ensure the survival of cattle and sheep."
"Live cattle and sheep are livestock, dead cattle and sheep can only be regarded as meat."
Zong Shen said with a smile, his eyes were like crescent moons.
Mariel could feel the change in Zong Shen's mood after she made the suggestion.
But I can't understand why Zong Shen is so happy.
However, Zong Shen's praise was still very helpful to the little girl.
Mariel smiled implicitly, with two cute dimples on the corners of her raised mouth.
She is like a flower blooming in late autumn.
Adding some vitality to the bleak cold wind.
Zong Shen pinched her cheek at the end.
Another loader mecha was taken out.
He took Mariel and some twenty farmers who had already put on their coats.
Heading towards the farming and pastoral area in the northwest direction of the territory.
They had to hurry up and build a wind wall in the pasture.
The entire territory is preparing for the cold.
Zong Shen's goal is very simple, that is, to survive the winter challenge as unscathed as possible!
