Chapter 97 The embarrassed local tyrant exploration team
Tang Zhen withdrew his gaze from the entrance to the valley and looked elsewhere.
In the other direction of the valley, Qianlong shouted loudly, and the same group of residents wielded sharp sickles, cutting down patches of weeds, and then leveled the ground with shovels.
After clearing a site of five acres of land, they began to build a simple shed.
The length of this shed is about tens of meters. According to the plan, a total of four buildings need to be built, arranged in four rows. The main body of the shed is made of iron pipes brought by Tang Zhen and stones from the valley. After the iron pipes are reinforced with right-angle fasteners, they will
The top of the shed is covered with colored steel tiles, and the surrounding area is blocked with stones.
This kind of shed can be used as a trading stall and can provide temporary shelter from the sun and rain for homeless people. It is also one of the means to attract homeless homeless people.
Tang Zhen relied on the storage space to help. Otherwise, it would have taken just these building materials to move.
Now that the residents of Holy Dragon City know that the city lord has magical abilities, Tang Zhen no longer avoids them. After seeing the city lord release supplies several times, the residents of Holy Dragon City have become accustomed to it.
Further away in sight is the location of the lake in the valley.
The shimmering lake is very beautiful, vast and rich in aquatic products. Standing on a high place on a clear day, you can see groups of fish swimming in the turquoise water. The whole picture looks very beautiful.
But Tang Zhen knew very well that if he rashly entered the water to fish, he would definitely die miserably.
In the lake, among the lush aquatic plants a few meters away from the shore, there lived a kind of string-like bugs. There were countless numbers of them. What surprised Tang Zhen the most was that they were also miniature monsters!
This kind of monster bug, which is shown to be out of level in the monster detector, usually feeds on aquatic plants. However, when a creature enters the water and approaches the aquatic plants, they will bite and entangle them desperately until the attacked object collapses.
in water.
At this time, the attacked object will become a delicious meal for them to improve their diet.
And this kind of terrifying bug happens to be the food of another kind of strange fish in the lake, those black strange fish that swim in groups on the water surface.
Tyson once told Tang Zhen that there should be something like a water monster living in the lake. He once saw a black shadow at least seven or eight meters long wandering through the lake.
Even on nights when the moon is high, the roars of monsters can be heard from the lake.
If Tang Zhen wants to use this lake, he must clear away all kinds of dangerous creatures in the lake. The first thing to kill is naturally the unknown water monster. Let it linger in the lake. For Shenglong City and the valley,
The homeless market under construction in China is a big threat.
As for how to deal with this monster, Tang Zhen already has a preliminary plan and will implement it soon.
The lake is very fertile, and the land near the lake is the only land suitable for farming in the valley.
After the residents' reclamation, about one hectare of land has been cleared and several high-yielding crops brought by Tang Zhen have been sown.
The residents of Shenglong City had never had any experience in farming the land, and the same was true for Tang Zhen. In order to learn how to farm, Tang Zhen searched for information and bought books. After working for a few days, he finally finished sowing the land.
There are more than a dozen kinds of potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn.
Whether these plants can grow smoothly will directly determine the future food source of Shenglong City. After all, relying on Tang Zhen to transport it is not a long-term solution. There must be a stable food source.
At the same time, there are also several unique wild plants of the Loucheng world that are cultivated, which are also the main source of food for the wanderers of this world.
For example, there are "astringent melons" that grow underground and are as big as a basin, "bitter melons" whose stems are full of starch, and "sauer beans" that look like peas. Each one is more unpalatable than the last.
But the wanderers in Loucheng World have no choice. In order to fill their stomachs, they can only endure the strange smell and eat it.
Tang Zhen didn't want to eat these crops, but he just wanted to see if the yield would increase after applying the chemical fertilizers he brought. If the effect was satisfactory, then it would be perfectly fine to plant some of these crops.
Compared with crops on Earth, the vitality of plants in Loucheng World is so tenacious!
After walking around the reclaimed land, Tang was shocked and delighted to find that sparse sprouts had sprouted on the ground, which were the sweet potatoes, potatoes and other plants he had brought from the earth.
He quickly called the residents responsible for cultivating the land and told them to take good care of the seedlings and water and weed them in time.
Seeing these sprouted crops, Tang Zhen felt very good.
Each building city will provide a monthly limit of food exchange according to the number of residents. This is a not very important, but indispensable function. These foods are not given for free, but need to be redeemed with points.
Unfortunately, the small amount of food exchanged can only ensure that the residents will not starve to death. It is absolutely impossible to eat every meal. However, if we want to ensure the vitality of the building city, let the residents work harder to participate in the construction of the building city and have enough food.
A stomach is a prerequisite, otherwise how can the residents work if they are so hungry that they can't even walk?
It can be said that solving the food source is one of the important problems currently faced by Shenglong City. If it cannot be properly solved, it will be difficult for Shenglong City to achieve much development in the future.
If Tang Zhen could control the original world, then this problem would be easily solved. After transferring a large number of people, the original world could be turned into a global processing factory and a large granary.
The dream is very great, but it is still far away to be realized. So judging from the current situation, if the residents of Shenglong City want to live a better life and have no worries about food and clothing, then they should work hard to earn coins!
coin?
Tang Zhen thought of this and found that he had something to do again, which was to prepare a currency that could replace the brain beads, which could be used inside the building city.
When everything in Loucheng is on track, this currency can also be used as a salary for the residents, and at the same time, the brains they have accumulated can be exchanged back.
Tang Zhen did not want to take advantage of the pitiful brains in the pockets of the residents, but he hoped that one day, all the wanderers who came to Holy Dragon City to trade would use the currency of Holy Dragon City, otherwise they would not be able to buy and sell goods.
If the foreign Rangers team wants this currency, they must use brain beads to exchange it. In this way, a large number of brain beads will enter Tang Zhen's pocket.
"City Lord, Lord City Lord!"
Tang Zhen was walking and thinking about the problem, but suddenly a voice calling him came to his ears. When he turned around, he saw a soldier riding a tricycle, driving toward him crookedly.
"What's going on?"
After Tang Zhen waited for the tricycle to stop, he asked.
Then the soldier stopped the tricycle, and then breathed heavily and said to Tang Zhen: "We stopped a wanderer exploration team at the entrance of the valley. They asked to enter the valley for refuge, saying that they wanted to avoid being chased by a group of kobolds.
Leader Tyson and his brothers stopped them, but Leader Qianlong asked you to come over, saying that you might be interested in something about these people!"
When Tang Zhen heard this, he immediately turned around and jumped on the tricycle, and said to the soldier: "Increase the accelerator and we will rush over immediately!"
The soldier agreed, immediately turned the accelerator of the tricycle to the bottom, and rushed towards the entrance of the valley.
As he approached the entrance of the valley, Tang Zhen saw Tyson and Qianlong leading a group of fully armed soldiers around them. There were also a dozen homeless people in ragged clothes squatting on the ground, with depressed expressions on their faces.
What surprised Tang Zhen was that when he looked at these wanderers, he found that golden light flashed from time to time on their bodies, which looked extremely dazzling.
Tang Zhen was very surprised. After jumping off the tricycle, he came to these homeless people in a few steps.
Tyson was asking a strong homeless man with a sullen face. Judging from the bruised nose and swollen face of the guy, I'm afraid he was dishonest before and was beaten up by Tyson.
Qianlong walked to Tang Zhen and pointed at the shining golden armor and hammer-shaped weapons on the wanderers. He remembered that Tang Zhen liked to collect this kind of soft and heavy metal, so he immediately ordered someone to notify Tang Zhen.
shock.
Tang Zhen's eyes widened at this moment. He picked up a wanderer's sledgehammer weapon and took a closer look, and was sure that the sledgehammer was actually a piece of gold!
Looking at the other wanderers, they all have gold hammer-shaped weapons and armor made of flattened gold plates!
The complete set of equipment made of gold made Tang Zhen ashamed. What a bunch of rich people!
After weighing the weight of the golden hammer, Tang Zhen couldn't help but ask: "I said, you are quite rich, and you actually use this kind of weapon!"
When the strong man who was beaten by Tyson with a bruised nose and face heard this, he thought Tang Zhen was laughing at them, and said with a smile on his face: "Are you rich? Brother, we really have no money! If we were rich, we would still use such shabby weapons.
It’s heavy and soft, we are so poor that we have no choice but to use this weapon!”
Tang Zhen was speechless. He was wearing unadulterated gold equipment and still cried about being poor. You poor people only have money left, right?
Of course, Tang Zhen also knew that this big man was telling the truth, because in the world of Loucheng, gold is really worthless. Even a steel bar that can be made into a weapon is worth more than a large piece of gold.
The only thing he was curious about was that the golden hammer with patterns on the surface in his hand was obviously a part of some kind of artifact. Where did this group of wanderers get it from, and why were they in such a mess?
