When Ouyang Shuo walked into the meeting hall, everyone was already there.
There was a landscape painting on the wall in front of the meeting hall. The lines were rough and there were only a few strokes, but it looked majestic. There was a rosewood chair in the middle with three ordinary wooden chairs on each side.
Shi Wansui sat first on the left, followed by Zhao Dexian and Zheng Shanpao. Cui Yingyou sat first on the right, followed by Zhao Youfang and Zheng Dahai.
After greeting everyone, Ouyang Shuo sat on the rosewood chair and said bluntly, "Let's start the meeting. Ying You, report the situation of the territory's resources. "
"Yes," Cui Yingyou answered crisply and stood up, "In terms of resources, the territory has 475 units of grain, 220 units of wood, 390 units of stone, and 450 units of iron ore. In terms of resource output, the lumberyard can produce 100 units of wood per day, and the quarry can produce 50 units of stone per day. According to the current construction progress of the territory, it is estimated that there will be a shortage of wood very soon. I suggest increasing the number of people working in the lumberyard. Report complete! "
After listening to Ying You's report, Ouyang Shuo didn't respond immediately. He first took the opportunity to look at the construction blueprints he bought from the primary market to see their construction requirements.
[Ferry]: Provides transportation between the two sides of the river. Construction requirements: Ferry, ferry, ferry construction blueprints, 40 units of wood, 20 units of stone. Construction time: One day.
[Primary dock]: Provides docking for ordinary civilian ships, provides cargo distribution. Construction requirements: Dock construction blueprints, 400 units of wood, 200 units of stone. Construction time: Three days.
[Primary shipyard]: Builds ordinary civilian ships, including ordinary fishing boats and passenger ships. Construction requirements: Primary shipbuilder, 100 units of wood, 50 units of stone. Construction time: Two days.
[Village temple]: A place of faith for the villagers, increases the satisfaction of the residents. Construction requirements: Village temple construction blueprints, 400 units of wood, 350 units of stone. Construction time: Two days.
He calculated in his heart. In addition to the primary barracks and five residential courtyards that hadn't been built yet, the number of resources needed for a Level 1 village was very clear.
After finishing his calculations, Ouyang Shuo said, "Very good. Ying You's report was very detailed and her analysis was on point. She found the problem. I just calculated that to complete all the construction projects, we need a total of 124 units of wood and 76 units of stone. This doesn't include the wood for the fishing boats. "
"According to the current wood production rate, it can't keep up with the construction speed, so it's necessary to increase manpower. The territory has a total of 87 people, and there are 70 farmers besides the special talents. Therefore, I have decided to add another 20 farmers to the lumberyard. " When he spoke up to here, Ouyang Shuo looked at Zhao Youfang and said, "Mr. Zhao Youfang, you have to coordinate the work of the people and ensure the supply of wood."
Zhao Youfang quickly got up and said loudly, "Yes. Of him! "
Ouyang Shuo lightly smiled. "Also, how's the progress of the task I assigned you a few days ago?"
Zhao Youfang frowned slightly and replied, "I've searched the entire territory for the past few days and found out that there's only one forest in the west. "It Zhao said of, we estimated, we can can. there is outside. As for the areas outside the territory, we haven't started exploring them yet because we're worried about encountering accidents. "
Ouyang Shuo pondered for a moment. He looked around at the crowd and said seriously, "What Chief Zhao just asked is very sharp. "Along with the construction of the territory, the logging and quarries are outside the villages and are vulnerable to attacks from wild beasts and roving bandits. The ferry, dock, and shipyard are also outside the territory, so the security situation is even more severe. These are the core industries of the territory, so we must ensure their safety. I'm afraid it's difficult for General Shi to take care of everything. The most urgent task now is to build the primary barracks, train the militia, and improve the territory's military strength. "
Ouyang Shuo saw Shi Wansui's excited face, so he smiled and said, "General Shi, I'll leave the task of forming the militia to you. The number of people to be recruited is 10. From now on, you can choose the soldiers in the territory. I promise that as long as you like the qualified soldiers, the construction team, the logging field, and the quarry departments will cooperate. "
Shi Wansui laughed heartily and said loudly, "This general is finally no longer a commander without an army. Please rest assured, my lord, this general will definitely train a group of valiant and courageous militia for the territory. I will not disappoint my lord's trust."
Ouyang Shuo nodded and turned to look at Zhao Dexian. He took out the building blueprints of the barracks, ferry, dock, shipyard, and village temple from his interspatial pouch and said, "Captain Zhao Dexian, these are the remaining five blueprints. Take them back. Arrange the construction sequence as a whole, and all the refugees that spawn in the next four days, except for special talents, will join your construction team. "
Zhao Dexian hurriedly got up and took the blueprints. He replied in a loud voice, "As long as the materials are supplied in time, I guarantee that all the buildings will be completed in five days."
After Zhao Dexian returned to his seat, Ouyang Shuo continued, "Everyone is clear about the short-term arrangements. I want to take this opportunity to talk about the long-term plan of the territory so that everyone has a clear idea of what to do. I'll give everyone a hint first. The ocean will be the core of the territory's future development. Controlling the ocean will allow us to seize the throat of global trade and occupy the strategic high ground in the future transnational war.
"To achieve this strategic goal, we need to build a powerful naval fleet. Therefore, shipbuilding will become the core industry of the future. Fortunately, our territory now has a high-level shipbuilder. " Ouyang Shuo looked at Zheng Dahai and said to him, "Master Zheng, I hope that you can choose suitable shipbuilding apprentices in the territory from now on. Nurture a batch of beginner, intermediate, and even high-level shipbuilders."
Zheng Dahai calmly got up and said calmly, "I will definitely not let you down, Lord!"
Ouyang Shuo nodded and surveyed the area before saying, "Today's meeting shall end here. After you come down, carry out the various tasks assigned by the meeting. "
Everyone got up and said in unison, "I will definitely not let you down, Lord (Lord)!"
10th January of the first year of Gaia. It was the tenth day of the game's launch. After four days of construction, the various construction projects in the territory were nearing completion.
The ferry, the beginner barracks, and the remaining five residences had been completed. The beginner shipyard, beginner dock, and village temple were also in the final stages. They could be completed by the end of the day.
The ferry was built on the northernmost bank of the Friendship River. It was the place where Ouyang Shuo and Shi Wansui had boarded the raft on the first day. It was a very memorable place. Through the ferry, one could cross the Friendship River and explore the hinterland of the Lian Zhou Basin. The shipyard and dock were built on the easternmost side of the territory, near the canyon.
Among the sixty refugees that had been added in the past four days, there were five people who were lumberjacks, fishermen, and vegetable farmers. There was a boatman in his fifties. He was healthy, easy-going, and always smiling. Everyone called him Old Man Zhang. Ouyang Shuo arranged for him to row a boat at the ferry. He used the simple raft that Ouyang Shuo had hidden on the shore.
The biggest gain was a young man in his twenties. He looked delicate and pretty. His name was Gu Xiuwen. He was a scholar. Although he was not a scholar, he had passed the county and provincial examinations. Furthermore, he was not too old. He was a good scholar.
What was more special was that although Gu Xiuwen was a Dark Iron rank talent, he had a special skill. This meant that he had great potential. With a little training, he could be promoted to Silver rank at any time.
[Name]: Gu Xiuwen (Dark Iron rank)
[Identity]: Shanhai Village Clerk
[Occupation]: Civil Official (Scholar)
[Loyalty]: 75 points
[Commander]: 25 [Martial Power]: 15 [Intelligence]: 35 [Politics]: 40
[Skill]: Knowledgeable (Increases the efficiency of territory administration by 5)
[Evaluation]: A scholar from a poor family. He is poor but determined. He is well-read. He is a modest gentleman.
Ouyang Shuo immediately appointed him as the Clerk of the territory. He was in charge of paperwork, population registration, and other work. The first thing he arranged for him was to create a population register.
The fact that Gu Xiuwen could win the evaluation of a modest gentleman was enough to show his character. Ouyang Shuo was going to train him as an important person in the future. Appointing him as the Clerk was the most suitable choice.
Thinking about the development of the territory, Ouyang Shuo walked towards the military camp in the northwest corner. The Second Child led the inferior warhorse and followed behind him in a dignified manner.
At the entrance of the military camp, Shi Wansui was waiting with ten soldiers he had carefully selected. When he saw Ouyang Shuo, he laughed and said excitedly, "My lord, you are here. I have been waiting impatiently. "
Ouyang Shuo looked at this brave general who was frank and outspoken. He smiled and said, "Alright, I know you are impatient. I will help them change professions now. Go in! "
The area of the military camp was not large. The main entrance was a lonely wooden gate. There was not even a simple defense tower. After passing through the gate, there was a small drill ground.
On the west side of the drill ground, there were two archery targets for the soldiers to practice archery. On the west side of the drill ground, there were five or six scarecrows for the soldiers to practice their fighting skills.
There were three rooms in the main hall of the military camp. They were the secret room for the job change, the meeting hall, and the officers' lounge. The east side of the military camp was the soldiers' dormitory. There was only one big room with a standard bed. There were two rooms in the west side of the military camp: the dining hall and the storage room.
When he arrived at the door of the secret room, he pressed his hand on the door. A system notification sounded.
System Notice: Congratulations to player "Not Wearing" for unlocking the military camp's secret room. The Beginner Military Camp can change farmers to Level 1 Militia. Job change fee: 10 silver coins. Please select the number of people to change!
"Ten people!"
System Notice: Number of people to change their jobs has been confirmed. 1 gold coin has been deducted from player "Not Wearing".
The door to the secret room slowly opened. The secret room was pitch black, and it was impossible to see what was inside. Ouyang Shuo had the ten farmers form a line and enter the secret room one by one.
When the first militia came out, he looked completely different. His tattered clothes were gone, replaced by a brand new linen robe. There was even a simple piece of leather armor tied around his chest. He held a simple spear in his hand, and his demeanor became more resolute and ferocious.
Ouyang Shuo took the opportunity to look at the militia's attributes.
[Name]: Zhang Daniu
[Identity]: Shanhai Village Militia Squad Member
[Profession]: Militia
[Level]: 1
[Combat Power]: 2 points (Attack and Defense Index. The standard civilian's combat power is 1 point)
[Consumption]: 2 units of rations/day
[Equipment]: Linen Robe, Simple Leather Armor, Simple Spear
[Evaluation]: A farmer who has just been released from work. If he wants to become a qualified soldier, he will need to undergo a long period of strict training.
Every time a militia increases a level, it will increase his combat power by 1 point. After reaching Level 10, he can change his job to an official soldier. Otherwise, he will not be able to increase his level. He needed to be in the Intermediate Military Camp before he could change his job to a soldier.
In less than half an hour, all ten farmers had changed their jobs to Level 1 militia. To a real professional soldier, a militia was nothing. But to a civilian, every militia was an existence that could fight one against two. Ouyang Shuo organized them into a small militia team, led by Shi Wansui.
