Lord of the Oasis Chapter 47: .Current overall data
Several days passed.
A new week continues as dawn approaches.
However, the first system message that appeared was about the payment of troop wages.
The 1384 dinars just disappeared.
At present, Kant's deposit is only 2,452 dinars. Thinking about the huge deposit of nearly 6,000 dinars a few days ago, more than half of it has been consumed. I have to feel that maintaining the army is simply burning money.
Just like the current sentry oasis, it has only 300 troops and costs 1,500 dinars per week.
Maintenance of troops is of course the main expense.
Food that can be consumed per week also costs more than 100 dinars.
Inside the Consulate.
Kant was also troubled by these trifles.
The dialog box on the retina disappeared, and Kant couldn't help rubbing his eyebrows.
The gnoll threat has temporarily disappeared.
Without the enemy, the development of Sentinel Oasis needs to be put back on the agenda.
After all, the current "Dehrim" is still in its most elementary form, and the buildings available for construction have not yet been constructed. Most of the farmers and soldiers sleep in simple tents and sandpits at night.
"Open the data list."
Kant's mind moved slightly, communicating with the system in his mind.
And the system pops up the current data list on his retina in an instant.
………………
【Drehem】
【Lord: Kant】
[Deposit: 2452 Dinars]
【General: Fatis】
【Category: Swadia Village】
【Current population: 200】
[Buildings: Consular Hall, House (5), Watchtower, Desert Bandit Stronghold]
[Buildable: houses, walls, mills, wells]
[Resources: date palm forest (2 mu), wheat field 7.5 mu]
[Overview of the troops: 95 infantry and 17 cavalry. ]
[Current troops: Swadian Militia (70), Swadian Light Infantry (25), Desert Bandit Elite (17)]
[Available to recruit: Swadian Recruits (Consulate), Desert Bandit (Desert Bandit Stronghold)]
[Evaluation: "Dehrim" looks good. Clear and cool springs flow in rough canals, nourishing the arid and barren land. The energetic farmers are busy in the date palm trees and fields, appearing very energetic. However, due to the lack of buildings, the village is still rudimentary. But it is worth noting that the village does not have any ladies. ]
………………
This is the current overall stat for DeHrim.
Kant's expression was a little heavy, and it seemed that his village was indeed quite bad.
It's really too shabby.
A few days ago, in order to cope with the threat of the gnolls, Kant devoted all his energy to the construction of the army. It can be said that he basically ignored the construction of the territory, and also delayed the development of "Dehrim".
There is no way to do that either.
After all, the gnoll threat is too strong.
If it weren't for the Hobson Knights and Hank Scholars from the Principality of the Lion, it is estimated that Kant alone would not be able to resist.
2000 strong gnolls are not something he can resist.
"All is well."
Kant let out a sullen breath, and already had a plan for the development of the territory in his heart.
The current "Dehrim" and the evaluation of the system are right, the building is seriously lacking, at least he now wants everyone to live in the house instead of sleeping in tents and sandpits.
Make up my mind, Kant Communication System: "Build a house."
【Ding...system prompt】
[Building the house will cost 100 dinars and take 7 days. ]
[Yes/No choose to build? ]
A system dialog box pops up, asking for a routine.
"Yes." Kant chose without hesitation.
With his affirmation, the crisp collision of metal coins sounded, which was somewhat pleasant, but 100 dinars disappeared directly from the deposit, which was about the cost of Kant building a house.
[costs 100 dinars]
[House: Under Construction]
【Completion date: 7 days later】
After selecting End, the system dialog box refreshes its contents.
And just behind the dunes not far away, is a team of 5 carriages pulled by 10 draught horses.
More than 30 sturdy workers followed on both sides, helping to push the carriage through the soft sand dunes. Looking at the full load of wood and stone, they knew that they should be a team delivering construction materials.
The leader is a fat man. Although his face is simple and honest, his eyes are full of businessman's cunning.
Soon, they reached the Sentinel Oasis.
Ten Swadian militiamen are holding heavy spears, meticulously inspecting their cargo.
These construction workers are not surprised either.
There are many rules in the noble territory.
"Construction leader, Lord Kant invites you to meet at the Consulate Hall."
At this time, a Swadian light infantry was walking quickly, swept over the construction team, set his eyes on the prominent fat man, and said in a rude tone: "Come with me. "
"Okay, okay."
The construction leader didn't look ugly at all, but nodded repeatedly and followed him with a complimenting smile.
If you can survive in the troubled Calradia continent and earn dinars happily, sometimes you have to give up something, such as dignity and face, how much is that worth?
The building leader briskly entered the Consulate Hall, which he was relatively familiar with.
Kant is sitting in the hall, looking at the parchment scroll in his hand.
It was densely written with various items. This was what the Riwadin caravan still had. He planned to buy some scarce supplies before the caravan left.
"Good morning, Dear Lord Kant."
The construction team leader bowed and saluted respectfully, and at the same time his voice was filled with joy: "Your faithful servant greets you."
"It's you, we meet again." Kant put down the parchment scroll in his hand and nodded to him as well.
However, he still picked out the error in the statement of the construction team leader, and said lightly: "Be careful, I am just your employer, and you are not my servant."
"In my heart, you are a noble lord far exceeding King Harroth."
The construction leader didn't care, but instead flattered: "It's Calradia's light of dawn."
"Haha." Kant chuckled.
He has never been dismissive of such typical flattering remarks.
And Kant knows that this construction leader is quite slick. Although he can complete the construction tasks on time, when he manages free meals on weekdays, even if this guy can't eat it, he will secretly hide a few pieces of bread for supper .
Definitely a greedy miser like Grandet.
With a solemn face, Kant looked at him and reminded him, "This time, the construction of the house must also be serious."
"Please rest assured, my construction team and I rely on good reputation to pick up jobs."
The construction leader lowered his head again and again, obviously aware that he was flattering himself, as if he was hitting the horse's leg.
Kant nodded, expressing satisfaction with the attitude of the construction team leader.
After a few simple chats with him, showing how concerned he was about the building, he waved his hand to let him leave. After all, the development of the territory is the most important thing.
The main thing is that Kant has other things to deal with~IndoMTL.com~ turned his head to the light infantry guarding behind the door and instructed: "Go and ask the caravan leader to come over."
"Understood."
The Swadian light infantry nodded and walked out of the Consulate immediately.
After a while, the caravan leader walked in quickly.
"Lord Kant, are you looking for me?" His attitude was still respectful.
"That's right."
Kant took out the sheepskin scroll, pointed at the materials on it and said, "I plan to buy these materials before you leave."
Rivatin's caravan only stays here for seven days.
Today is the day to leave, everything is packed, and the hundreds of gnoll captives are tied with both hands.
"2 cans of oil and 10 tools."
The caravan leader looked at the goods that had been marked on it, and said softly: "Five linen cloths."
"Is there a problem?" Kant asked.
This is the material he decides to buy for future development, so plan ahead.
However, Kant is also a little helpless about the price.
The price of Calradia is very high, basically 30% higher than the real world.
Considering that only his own system can sell things to himself, Kant can only accept it with gritted teeth. After all, wool comes from sheep. As long as he is strong and has enough capital, he can completely make those gnolls pay the bill. .
The slave trade is exciting.
