Chapter 257: Inspection territory, proposed papermaking

The corpse seemed to have been baptized with positive energy and has not been corrupted so far. Xia Duo only glanced at it, but did not take it seriously. Turning to ask Leiden, "I remember there was a carpenter in the slave, right?"
"Yes, my lord."
"The first phase of the residence in Linshui Village is ready to be built. Pick a group of people for him and let him start in the north of the altar and the south of the camp." Xia Duo ordered.
Now the number of people in the territory is nearly one hundred. When Xia Duo came back, he noticed that, except for the official people with some wooden houses similar to Chase, the slaves only lived in straw sheds.
Just the kind of conical hayloft with a few branches and some hay hanging on it is very simple, and if it rains, it has almost no rain protection.
As the saying goes, "He who has no permanent property has no perseverance." Xia Duo expects this group of people to work with peace of mind. The material incentives that he should have are also necessary.
"By the way, let's build a few rows of cabins first, so that people can live in them for a long time." Xia Duo added.
Leiden looked to the north, thought for a moment, and said, "My lord, it takes about seven days to build a wooden house. If you ask for more rows, it may take a long time."
At present, the wooden houses on the territory are only temporarily built, and a lot of materials brought in from Saville are used. Leiden feels that the territorial development elementary school spends a lot of time on housing, which is not worth it.
"Priest Leiden, the leaders came here with me. They can't even have basic housing. It's decided like this, and not only the current leaders, but the future leaders will also have to allocate housing."
Xia Duo too understood the importance of a house. It was not only a place to shelter from wind and rain, but also a home with peace of mind.
Although there are future promises hanging on the front, the enthusiasm of these leaders is still very sufficient, but it is impossible to satisfy their hunger by always drawing cakes.
Some short-term incentives are needed. What Xia Duo can think of is the house. Anyway, the people build it by themselves. He is just doing a distribution job.
"Yes, sir." In front of Xia Duo, Leiden took out a scroll from his waist, and wrote down Xia Duo's request in a few strokes.
...
After patrolling around the shrine, Chateau found another problem.
On the eastern pioneering line, several large fires are burning, and from time to time leaders or slaves add fuel to them.
How Xia Duo cared before, but now he suddenly realized that these fires actually burned money!
The traverser crushes the indigenous magic weapons: paper, sugar, glass, and perhaps a "salt" can be added.
Seeing these hay and wood that were burned in vain, Xia Duo thought of making paper.
Although Netheril also has paper made of plants and trees, it is not in circulation because it cannot carry spells and the price exceeds the cheapest parchment paper.
But Xia Duo knew the potential of this kind of paper. Even earth, rock, and metal could carry spells. Without reason, straw, wood, and paper could not carry spells.
What's more, Xia Duo knew very well that the key to truly carrying spells was actually ink, or the material that could be connected to the magic net.
He believes that in the future there will be vegetation paper that can be used to make magic scrolls.
In addition, bio-leather (high cost) is not required for plant-based paper like parchment paper. Plants and plants are everywhere. Once the technology is mature and the cost drops, it can explode quickly.
This is a big killer for popularizing knowledge.
Popularization of knowledge does no harm to Xia Duo, as long as key technologies are blocked. The popularization of knowledge will promote exchanges and make a great explosion of ideas and theories.
Chateau was really fed up with Netheril's conservative style, and being able to lead a thought change was something he was very willing to do.
As for whether it will make others stronger, that is not in Xia Duo's consideration, unless it is the enemy. His goal has always been himself, as long as he keeps improving, what should he worry about!
Focus on the big picture and start small, maybe you can try the ancestral papermaking technique now.
However, Xia Duo can't do much to the present, he just kept the matter of papermaking in his heart, and will try it whenever he gets the chance.
Now he can only work hard not to look at the fires that burned "money". Fortunately, only some hay and the branches of the trees were burned.
The trunk wood is still left!
"Priest Leiden, go ahead, I'll look east."
"Yes."
...
Now the territory soldiers need to defend the positions, mainly in the east, with the altar in the south, the river in the west, and the fence and [Magic Alarm] in the north.
However, Xia Duo was worried that going too far east would affect the confusion. In actual planning, only need to clean up to about 100 meters from the river.
After that, you can set up a fence and open up to the south.
"The key is lack of people!"
Crossing the opening line to the east, Xia Duo continued to move forward. After walking for nearly a hundred meters, he saw the simple "line of defense" arranged by the Qiao Qi team
A thin line runs through the forest from south to north, using branches less than half a meter high as piles, and hanging small bells every 20 or so.
I didn’t see the people from Qiaoqi’s team. Xia Duo deliberately stirred it when he passed by. The small bell closest to him rang immediately~EbookFREE.me~ Then the thin line was affected. A crisp bell rang, and soon Xia Duo heard an angry roar from the east:
"Node 3 has been triggered. Harder, are you lazy? Show me back!"
It's been a while since leaving the territory, and Xia Duo is a little strange to this voice, but it is not difficult to guess who, if not surprising, it is Qiao Qi.
With such a loud voice, it sounds so loud across a long distance in the forest!
Soon, Xia Duo saw Harder trotting all the way from the east carrying a sword and shield. Suddenly seeing the Lord who had disappeared for more than ten days, Harder seemed stunned.
"That-Lord Lord!"
At this moment, Joe Qi's voice came out again, "Harder, Harder, you guys have a reply!"
Harder then reacted and shouted towards the southeast: "Captain, it's Lord Lord! Lord Lord is back!"
After shouting, Harder looked at Xia Duo awkwardly, hesitating whether to return to the guard position or stay to wait for the captain.
Xia Duo looked at this thin line of bell cordon with interest. The cordon's effect should be good for ordinary beasts, but it was a bit far from the camp.
It would be better if people in the camp could also hear it, so that the camp could also be alerted in advance.
Soon, Qiao Qi rushed over, also carrying a sword and shield, trotting all the way to Xia Duo, and said straightly: "My lord! Qiao Qi is here to report!"
Xia Duo nodded, and pointed in the direction he came, "Go, and talk as you walk."
"Yes, my lord."
Qiao Qi dismissed Harder, walked in front, led the way for Xia Duo, and reported the latest situation, "My lord, for these ten days, we have pushed the cordon here, outside the bell line during the day and inside the bell line at night. ."
