After joining Saphiel, Lawrence and the others finally managed to put together a standard team. After all, as a supernatural creature, it is difficult for book charms to understand some more abstract knowledge. Lawrence himself seems to be a copy of him in terms of three views and knowledge reserves.
Nora is accustomed to thinking about problems in another world.
Therefore, a reliable and well-educated native of this world like Saphiel is very important to Lawrence and the others, because she can help them find the shortcomings in the plan from the perspective of a native, so as to further improve the information about this planet.
Plan for the development of the interface plane.
In fact, Lawrence initially wanted the real indigenous jackals of this astral plane to participate in the discussion, but after asking at the banquet just now, those jackals all thought that this kind of thing should be done after the gods ordered them to go there.
Just complete it. After launching the Jackals several times but still insisting on their own attitude, the burden of formulating the entire plan finally fell on Lawrence and his group of outsiders.
In the next week, the four of them were extremely busy. Except for Sephiel and Lawrence, who took turns to spend half an hour returning to the main plane every day, pretending that they were still playing and camping at various scenic spots around the lake.
At other times, everyone is in this room designing the future development direction of this astral plane.
But there is a very important problem here, that is, none of the four people present have the experience of leading so many people, let alone the experience of guiding a civilization to progress, even if it only has hundreds of thousands of people. So in desperation
, they can only find what they want from the history of the two worlds, and then piece together a set of plans that may seem feasible.
What followed was a lot of quarrels. For example, Lawrence repeatedly reminded Saphiel in the process of guiding the development of an astral plane with its own civilization. The most important thing is to retain the autonomy of the civilization in this plane.
Sex and creativity. Because Saphiel always wants to purchase a lot of things from outside and directly let these jackals enter the industrial age.
"Their life is really too bad, and they are too backward. For example, according to this data, only ten out of every 100 Jackals have metal tools, while others only have some stone, bone or even
Wooden tools." Whenever he mentioned this, Saphiel would give his own reasons.
Of course, this reason is also very reasonable. Because everyone knows that the jackals in the astral plane where they are now live an extremely primitive life, and the production capacity of the entire plane is too low. And Lawrence and the others are now formulating
An important goal of these plans is to promote the development of this Jackal civilization, which is like a living fossil.
"You are right, we do want to promote the development of these jackals." Lawrence nodded, "But if we forcefully impose our civilization on them, it will only completely destroy their future. Not to mention this position.
There are no fossil fuels similar to coal mines, so we can’t keep importing such necessities from the outside world, right?”
A full week passed during this debate, and Lawrence and the others finally came up with a more feasible plan. Of course, this is not the final plan, and they will continue to adjust these plans according to changes in the situation.
Because this astral plane is a strip 100 kilometers wide and 2,600 kilometers long, with complex terrain ranging from oceans, plains to mountains. So Lawrence and the others naturally designed different development directions for different locations.
After checking several times and finding no major loopholes, Lawrence and the others came to see the leaders of the jackals in the temple. Fortunately, the jackals all lived along the river, and Lawrence and the others were currently located where the river was close to its mouth.
.So after receiving the news of the return of the gods a week ago, all the jackal leaders took boats down the river and came here.
Arriving at the hall of the temple again, Saphire was still floating in the air, with Lawrence and the others standing beside her. Behind them were more than a dozen staff members. But this time, the ones standing below were not the pious ones from before.
Believers, but leaders from various settlements and temple managers.
Being called by God is naturally extremely glorious for believers. However, what these leaders did not expect was that the content Lawrence and the others discussed with them this time had nothing to do with faith, but something very ordinary in their eyes.
"Everyone, based on the past few days, His Majesty Jade Heart has formulated a development plan with us." Lawrence stood up as the right hand of God, and then pointed with the short stick in his hand to a huge sand table on the stone platform in front of him.
Speaking of.
This is a large-scale sand table. Since the entire plane is in the shape of a long strip, Lawrence and the others had to ask the Jackals at the door to put more stone platforms into the house to support the sand table during their previous preparations.
.
It can be seen from the sand table that the terrain of this astral plane is very complex. The rivers that run through the entire plane originate from the mountains at one end of the plane, followed by hills and forests that cannot be cultivated with the tools in the Jackal's hands now.
.This terrain covers an area of 1,200 kilometers, in which only a few jackal logging sites and small hunting tribes exist.
Next is a giant plain of 1,100 kilometers, but there are also some hills, hills and inland saltwater lakes containing minerals. Because of the previous adjustment by God Habib, the plain climate here is a slightly arid grassland climate.
It is different from the real desert on both sides of the Nile River in Yanzhou. On this dry grassland, some jackals who make a living by grazing, mining and salt extraction live here.
The areas on both sides of the river that can be moistened by the river water are densely covered with lush vegetation, with tropical trees like palms and date palms growing there. There are also some large Jackal settlements and agricultural facilities interspersed among them.
The number of jackals naturally living here is also the largest.
The 100-kilometer river delta area near the sea also has a large number of Jackals, engaged in a series of tasks such as hunting, fishing, planting, etc. The number of Jackals here is not the largest, but the population density is the largest.
.
At the same time, apart from the largest city under the pyramid, the second largest city in the entire plane, mainly engaged in fishing and some handicraft industries, Hekou City with a population of 6,000 is also located in this delta.
The 200 kilometers from the river's mouth to the sea is the sea area of this plane, and there are some small islands in it. The Jackals based on the river mouth city and the small islands have established a maritime fishery system.
After pointing out that this was a sand table of the entire plane and allowing those sitting to watch it, the wise men and leaders of these jackals all gathered around the sand table to look for their hometowns. Fortunately, Lawrence took this into consideration when making the sand table.
Next to each important terrain, there are ancient Nile hieroglyphs engraved on small bronze plaques for explanation.
Unfortunately, at least half of the settlement leaders were illiterate. So much so that they had to ask the temple staff to help them point out the location. After everyone roughly figured out where their settlements were, Lawrence stood next to the sand table.
Start your own explanation.
"I think you have already seen this sand table. Next, let's talk about His Majesty Jade Heart's arrangements. According to the plan, we will build a bronze smelting station at the bend of the tributary of the river on the edge of Black Claw Mountain.
Using the river, we can transport the copper ore and tin ore from the upper reaches, and then use local fast-growing palms as fuel to smelt bronze." As he spoke, Lawrence pointed a stick at a bend in the lower reaches of the river in the sand table of the plane.
"This place is not only convenient for transporting raw materials and products, but if a dam is built upstream of the river, water conservancy can be used to save manpower and increase productivity..."
While explaining, Lawrence asked the temple staff to take out the model of the water forging hammer. After pouring a pot of water to simulate the flow of water, the jackals present immediately understood the principle of the hydraulic forging hammer.
"This plan requires the joint construction of the Black Claw Mountain Copper Mine, Blackfish Village and the downstream River Bend Town. Have the leaders of these places arrived?" After the explanation was completed, Lawrence asked as he looked at the furry Jackal in front of him.
"Here we come." An elderly jackal on crutches, a jackal woman with three copper earrings on her ears, and a jackal with gnarled muscles and multiple burn scars all came out of the crowd at the same time.
He walked out, then crossed his hands on his chest and bowed to Lawrence.
