Lord of the Gaming World Chapter 41: Gold Mine Storm
Good luck is useless, but also strength. Those with virtue (strength) in gold mines are in the top spot.
At least Chutian thinks so.
The village chief of Shangbi Village was the first to discover the gold mine and couldn't hold it. Later, it was occupied by horse thieves, and now it is in the hands of Chu Tian.
After confirming that there is a gold mine in Shangbi Village, Chu Tian led the soldiers into Shangbi Village.
"Thank you for saving us!"
The villagers of Shangbi Village greeted the villagers with food. The purpose was that Chutian, who came for the gold mine, did save the villagers.
"I heard that Shangbi Village was occupied by horse thieves. I felt the same way, and I couldn't sleep or eat, so I came to rescue you non-stop. All the villagers and fathers are better than everything."
Chu Tian had the cheek to appease the villagers, which moved them even more.
The horse thief did not destroy the stone tablet in Shangbi Village, but it is estimated that he wanted to use the villagers to mine.
Chutian chose to occupy Shangbi Village and turned this second-level village into a vassal village of Xia Town.
It only takes two hours to occupy the second-level village, and Chutian can already see the information of Shangbi Village.
[Territory]: Shangbi Village (Secondary Village)
[Lord]: Chutian (fourth class is not changed)
[Affiliation]: Xiazhen
[Specialty]: inferior gold ore (grade B), hawthorn (grade D specialty)
【Population】: 517/1000
【People's Heart】: 90
【Security】: 55
[Facilities]: Level 3 Mining Field, Level 2 Blacksmith Shop, Township Camp, Caotang Private School...
A very ordinary second-class village, because Chutian rescued the village from the horse thieves, and the people's heart has reached 90. Generally speaking, it is basically impossible for an uprising to occur if the popular sentiment is above 80, and some positive effects will occur if the popular sentiment is above 90, such as donating money and food, and responding to policies.
Chu Tian looked at the talents in Shangbi Village, and there was a silver-level internal affairs talent, Elder Zhang, whose political attribute was 47, which was barely worthy of use.
Chutian directly appointed him as the temporary village head and asked him to supervise the mining of the villagers. In the future, he only needed to send the blueprints to the village head for construction. Every month, Shangbi Village transports the mined gold and collected taxes to Xia Town.
"Wu Shang, I'll leave you 2 cavalry and 50 elite infantry soldiers to guard Shangbi Village with Elder Zhang. Without orders, you must not conflict with the surrounding villages. Usually you improve the security, if there is an enemy attack , close the village gate and stick to it, and send cavalry to Xia Town in an emergency."
"Yes!"
Chu Tian arranged for the silver-level ranger Wu Shang to serve as the garrison general of Shangbi Village. There is a shortage of talents. It may be that Wen You Li Kui and Wu You Hua Mulan have watched too many heroes with attributes above 80. At this time, when you look at the next batch of gold-level and silver-level generals, it will not be fragrant.
In fact, most village chiefs still use silver or even bronze generals and civil servants. There are very few generals at the gold level.
Chutian arranged for a group of villagers from Shangbi Village to be transferred to miners. The main income of Shangbi Village comes from the mining field, and the food can be self-sufficient as long as it is self-sufficient. After all, there is not enough labor. In order to mine gold, agriculture can only be sacrificed slightly.
Chutian used the quota of vassal villages in Xia Town very cautiously. Xiaozhu Village is a trading-type village, and Shangbi Village is a mining-type village. In short, they are all for the purpose of making money and assisting Xia Town.
…
"Ding! Player, your territory "Shangbi Village" has been occupied by other lords, and you have lost your status as a lord. Please choose a new growth direction."
"The direction of the general."
In Langya City, the fleeing head of Shangbi Village received a notification from the system and couldn't help gnashing his teeth.
He came to a courtyard bought by a player's guild in the city. There were free players who came in and out. In the center of the large courtyard was a plaque - "Lingyan Pavilion".
There are at least hundreds of player guilds in Langya City.
"I'm looking for the president, I have important information."
"The president's village has been upgraded to a first-level town today. He is in his own territory. What information do you have?"
"I know where there are gold mines."
"Gold Mine!"
Several freelancers in charge of managing the guild have frenzied eyes.
Everyone is trapped in the world of "Lord". Earth coins are just a piece of waste paper, and gold, silver, and copper are extremely important.
"How many levels of gold?"
"Level 3."
"Come here, prepare your horse! I'll take you to Lingyan Town, the president's place. The president will definitely be interested in the third-level gold mine!"
…
Lingyan Town, 30 kilometers southwest of Langya City, is a first-class town. The lord "Tang Li Er" can be ranked in the top 100 in Xuzhou District. It is one of the few towns in Langya.
"President, the village chief of Shangbi Village reported that a third-level gold mine is less than 40 kilometers away from you."
"Bring him to see me."
"We are on our way to your town."
"Got it."
Datang Li Er received a report from the guild members, and his eyes also showed a desire for gold mines: "I have a second-level pasture and a second-level cavalry battalion here. It's not that I can't train cavalry, but I can't raise war horses Fifty war horses cost at least 100 gold, and the cost of raising horses is a huge expense every month. If I win a third-level gold mine, I will have the funds to recruit hundreds of cavalry and become the strongest in Langya. Great town!"
Under the order of Tang Li Er, fifty villagers entered the cavalry battalion in Lingyan Town for training. All fifty cavalry were trained as light cavalry.
…
Chutian still didn't know that this third-level gold mine had attracted the coveting of other lords~IndoMTL.com~ After he captured Shangbi Village, he returned to Xia Town and continued to expand his army - using the captured warhorses to train 12 light cavalry and 59 elite infantry.
According to the current organization, Xiazhen has 40 light cavalry, 50 Xuzhou archers, 120 elite infantry, and the generals include Hua Mulan, Liu Sandao, and Zhao Qi. There are 2 light cavalry and 50 elite infantry in Shangbi Village, and the defender is Wu Shang. Xiaozhu Village is too close to Xia Town, there are no standing soldiers, and only a few villagers maintain law and order.
There are still two vassal villages in Xia Town.
The vassal village is very important. It will hand over money every month and food to Xia Town every year. Xia Town will have more financial income and can support more soldiers.
The output of the gold mine is unknown. Chutian arranged for 150 laborers to mine the Shangbicun gold mine. After a month of mining, it is possible to know how much the third-level gold mine will produce if 150 laborers are invested.
The population of Xia Town continues to increase. The fourth-level fish market has gradually become prosperous because the city Cao Xia Liang entrusted caravans to promote it in various places. Hundreds of residents trade in the fish market every day.
Dian farming officer Li Kui led the townspeople to reclaim a new farmland outside the town to prepare for sowing in October.
At the end of August, Xuzhou archers finally finished their training!
A team of Xuzhou archers stood in five rows on the school grounds, wearing leather armor, holding a bow in their right hand, and carrying a quiver on their back. A quiver holds 20 to 30 arrows and costs about a tael of silver.
Training a team of elite archers is also quite expensive.
"There is a third-level village near the water village. If you can occupy that third-level village, you can control the water village and set up a navy camp in the water village in the future."
Chutian has not forgotten that Xia Village has a powerful sailor with eight sailors. I still have dreams, what if I can drink horses and Yangtze River in the future?
