EBE Chapter 187
Chapter 187
After entering the territory, Fang Tian first walked into the village.
It is said to be a village, but actually it is more appropriate to describe it as a town.
After such a long period of development, the village chief has already brought in many masons from outside.
So now the town is full of solid houses built of stone bricks, the floors are paved with stone slabs, and there are even some basic shops.
Of course, these infrastructures were all invested by Fang Tian. Since the stonemasons are his own, the cost is not high.
A high wall was also built around the town, and ten warriors stood guard at the gate.
These people are all tribal warriors who followed Fang Tian in the previous desert trials, and they are all leader-level strength.
A total of fifty people came at that time and are now the guards of the territory.
Their duty is to guard the town and protect outgoing villagers. After all, boss-level monsters occasionally appear deep in the territory, and ordinary villagers are unable to resist.
A sturdy middle-aged guard came forward. His name was Ali, and he was the captain of the guard team.
"Send someone to inform the village chief, blacksmith and tailor to gather at the Government Affairs Hall. You can come too."
"Yes!"
Ali turned around and said a few words to the other guards, then followed Fang Tian.
It was already late at night, and the residents had all gone to sleep. Only occasionally patrols passed by, and they greeted Fang Tian respectfully.
Not long after, Fang Tian led Ali into the Government Affairs Office, and the village chief and others also hurried over.
After everyone saluted, Fang Tian motioned for them to sit down around the conference table and looked at the village chief, or rather the town chief.
The mayor understood and immediately stood up to report the basic situation in the town.
There are currently 277 townspeople in total, including 10 blacksmiths and apprentices, 10 tailors and apprentices, 25 craftsmen of various types, and 50 guards.
In terms of taxation, since Fang Tian gave them permission to go out, trade with the outside world has now been smoothed. Wood and ordinary water, which are not valuable to the survivors, have been exchanged for other materials through trade.
Therefore, Fang Tiancai is the ultimate beneficiary of the trade, which has caused his tax revenue to skyrocket, and he can currently obtain 200 spirit stones every day.
Unfortunately, the villagers would only trade the resources they collected. Fang Tian's attempt to get them to trade the cheap materials collected by the workers failed.
Otherwise, by taking advantage of this BUG, Fang Tian can take off by buying and selling.
After he finished his report, Fang Tian asked, "Did you encounter any difficulties?"
Last time, the village chief talked about the difficulty of having limited supplies in the territory, and after allowing Fang Tian to open up trade, he enjoyed the benefits he received.
Moreover, after the opening of trade, the residents' income increased, which in turn increased Fangtian's loyalty. Now the loyalty of ordinary residents is close to 100 full value.
The higher the loyalty, the harder one will work, and in a virtuous circle, Fangtian's taxes will become higher and higher.
"Back to Lord, the problem now is that the town is close to saturation. Do you think we should build a new village to accommodate new residents, or expand our existing town?"
Fang Tian's previous plan was to build a new building, but now that he can communicate with the outside world through buses, there is no need for that.
Therefore, Fang Tian immediately gave an answer: "Let's expand first. Now the monsters in the territory are getting stronger and stronger. If you build a new village, the defense pressure will increase."
"Yes, I will implement it tomorrow."
"Lord, our defense team can handle a new village!" Ali couldn't help but stand up.
Fang Tian motioned the mayor to sit down and said to Ali: "I need you elsewhere. Tomorrow you prepare 20 warriors, and I will ask Xiao Ai to take them to patrol the designated area."
The so-called designated areas are naturally various mines.
Near some of the mines that go deep into the territory, boss monsters will occasionally spawn.
Although it does not pose a life threat to today's migrant workers, it will disrupt their work to some extent, so it is more cost-effective to send bodyguards there.
"Yes!" Ali sat down.
Fang Tian looked at the blacksmith again: "How is the situation over there?"
The blacksmith stood up and replied: "The first group of apprentices I brought have begun to accept apprentices. Currently, there are 12 people in my blacksmith shop who have mastered the forging process of green weapons."
Since the last trial in the desert, Fang Tian rewarded the blacksmith with a blue weapon. The blacksmith went into seclusion for three days and successfully mastered the forging process of the green weapon.
Unfortunately, after mastering it, the prototype blue weapon was destroyed.
Otherwise, Fang Tian would definitely try to lend Long Yin to him! Dragon Roar is a purple epic weapon. Maybe after borrowing it, he can master the forging process of blue weapons!
"How many green weapons can your blacksmith shop produce every day now?"
"240 were built today, and they were all handed over to Mr. Xiao Ai."
"Okay!" Fang Tian calculated quickly in his mind.
The salary ratio has been calculated long ago, and he can get 65% of the profit.
A green weapon costs 800 water, and he can get a profit of 520 water, which is 240 weapons a day, which is water, and 124 spiritual stones!
Fang Tian looked at the tailor eagerly: "Where are you?"
The reason why he was so impatient was that after the blacksmith mastered the green weapon, Fang Tian specially gave the tailor a blue dress and a blue hat.
He was too tired from working these days and never came to ask, so he was eager to know.
The tailor did not disappoint him and stood up and replied: "My tailor shop can produce 100 pieces of green clothes and hats every day. Today's output has been handed over to Mr. Xiao Ai."
Sure enough it is feasible!
The green armor is worth 2000 water, and Fang Tian can get a profit of 1300 water. 100 pieces of green armor are also water, and 130 spiritual stones!
With taxes plus blacksmith and tailor, you can get 200+124+130 every day, which is 454 spiritual stones!
"Okay, thank you for your hard work. You should go and rest early."
The mayor and a few people were about to leave when Fang Tian stopped him again: "By the way, there are more and more people now, and your work has also increased. From now on, I will give you a budget of 10 spirit stones every day. You can Recruit two people to assist you."
The mayor's face showed an ecstatic look and he bowed repeatedly: "Lord, you are so generous! Please rest assured! I will definitely take care of government affairs with my heart in the future!"
"Well, bring me more villagers. Don't worry, I will increase the budget for you when there are more people in the future."
"Yes, yes!" The mayor thanked him profusely and left with the blacksmith and tailor.
Ali escorted Fang Tian to the entrance of the town.
The guards at the town entrance were changed, and one of the new warriors on duty was injured.
Fang Tian walked over to check and asked, "How did you get injured?"
The warrior bowed his head and saluted, stammering and speechless.
Ali Bang replied: "I was injured by a wild animal while protecting the villagers, but it was just a superficial injury. There are doctors in the town, so you don't have to worry."
"You are all the bravest warriors, why do you use such crude equipment?"
Ali scratched his head: "Although the reward you gave us is very high, after all, we have just arrived and have not yet established a foothold. We have no spare money to buy equipment."
Fang Tian took out 50 sets of green equipment that he had prepared long ago from his backpack and piled them on the ground.
"This is for you, please send it to the brothers."
Ali's eyes lit up and he said happily: "Okay, okay! We will definitely save the money and pay you back as soon as possible!"
Fang Tian waved his hand: "No, it's for you."
"Ah?" Ali looked surprised and bowed repeatedly: "Thank you Lord Lord for your generous gift!"
When the other guards heard this, their faces were also full of joy.
