Chapter 4 Status Quo of the Territory

"I am your new lord, you can call me Rubik's Cube Lord. Next, I will arrange today's work for you, but before that, I will ask you some information about the tribal territory, and you must answer truthfully. "

After Chen Bing finished his observation, he told the residents of the 10 territories after he had made up his mind.

"Yes, my lord." All 10 residents answered in unison, one of them was younger, and he quietly looked at Chen Bing and Princess Shelley out of the corner of his eye.

"Buck, you are an old fisherman. Our territory is in the bay, and seafood is very important to us. I want to know about this first. As far as I know, the sea is rich in fish food, but Why are you the only fisherman in the territory, and there is no fish in the territory?"

Chen Bing first asked the old fisherman, Buck.

When Buck heard this, his expression darkened: "My lord, the situation is not what you imagined. It is not easy to fish in the sea. Even if you are an experienced fisherman, if you fish in the sea, because you don't have good tools, 10 I only succeed three or four times once. If I say 10 times, I can only succeed 1 or 2 times. Because I have to fish in the sea every day, the fish in the bay will quickly know that there will be danger in this area. They are not washed by the waves. If you come here, you will avoid the area around the bay. Sea fish are very sensitive to the movement around the ocean. If a hunting fails, the surrounding fish will be alarmed and flee together. There will be no fish to catch in a short time .”

"So don't look at this bay is very big, but in fact it can only accommodate three to four fishermen. It would be meaningless if there are more. Originally, there were two fishermen in our tribe, but the pirates attacked a few days ago. Jerry was robbed by pirates. Jerry is younger than me, and his fishing ability is much better than mine. If you can rescue Jerry, my lord, our tribe's daily fishing income will increase a lot."

"Buck, don't be rude, the lord will decide what to do, you don't need to talk too much!" the old apprentice priest Bane heard the words, and said to the old fisherman Buck with a straight face.

"It's okay. I'm new here and I don't know many things. If you have any needs, you can ask me. Even if I don't agree, I won't blame you. On the contrary, if the proposal is good and beneficial to the development of the territory, I will Give you rewards."

Chen Bing waved his hands and said to Ben and Buck.

"Yes, my lord!"

The 10 residents looked at each other and said in unison.

[System: Your prestige in the territory +1, resident loyalty +2! 】

Prestige and loyalty have both increased, but the number is not large. It is estimated that although his words have made these residents have confidence in him,

But most of them are still on the sidelines.

"Buck, do you know where those pirates live? How many are there?" Chen Bing asked.

Rescuing Jerry is a mission. If he can be successfully rescued, Jerry can come back, not to mention increasing the food production of the territory, and his prestige will also be greatly improved.

"I don't know, those pirates have ships, and they often come to attack when we are few people or in the middle of the night. As far as I know, there are 5 to 20 pirates, and every pirate is good at fighting. Only Bova was the one who was attacked by the pirates. The rest of them had no fighting ability, so they could only run away when they saw the pirates. But Bova alone is no match for a group of pirates. Fortunately, those pirates will not chase too far ashore. If it had been earlier, he could have escaped, but last time, Bowa was so unlucky that pirates attacked at night, he didn’t see the road clearly when he fled, tripped over a stone, and was finally captured by the pirates.”

Buck replied, roughly talking about the situation of the pirates, and the combat effectiveness of the lord's residents.

Bova was the pikeman, also thirty-one years old.

"Buck, how many fish can you catch in a day now? If you are given better fishing tools, can you increase the number of fish you catch?"

Bowa held a rather sharp-looking wooden gun in his hand, while Buck held a wooden harpoon, which was not very sharp.

At the beginning of the game, the civilization level of the territory is the Stone Age, and the production tools are extremely backward.

Buck's fishing success rate is so low, it may have something to do with the tools.

As far as Buck's harpoon is concerned, even if it hits a fish, it may not be able to keep the fish. The success rate is high.

"My lord, I can catch food for 2 to 5 people a day. Of course, if I can have a sharp harpoon like some large territories, the number of fish caught will definitely increase a lot. This point I still have confidence!"

Buck answered immediately.

"Very well, I understand your situation. I will give you a surprise after a while." Chen Bing nodded.

The so-called relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the sea to eat the sea.

It's just that in the Stone Age now, under extremely primitive conditions, it is not feasible to rely on the sea to eat the sea.

But Chen Bing is not a primitive man, he is a well-prepared adventurer.

"Andrew, how much food can you four hunters hunt in a day? Will there be any danger?"

Chen Bing then looked at the four hunters.

Of the four hunters, one is older, the other three are younger, and the older one is named Andrew.

"Lord Lord, under normal circumstances, we can hunt food for 6 to 10 people a day. As long as we don't encounter those ferocious large beasts, based on our experience, nothing will happen. Of course, many beasts have attack power , we get injured from time to time, but with Priest Bane around, minor injuries are not a big problem, even if we don't rest, we can recover in a day or two."

Andrew replied respectfully.

Buck serves 2 to 5 people a day, and Orion serves 6 to 10 people a day.

In other words, if luck is not very good, the food you get in a day is still not enough to consume, and Chen Bing needs to supplement it with the food provided by the system.

Of course, based on the average amount, it is impossible to be so unlucky all the time. In fact, the food consumption of the tribe will basically remain balanced.

But that's just ideal.

Don't forget, this is the Stone Age, and hard work doesn't pay off. The primitive residents have to look at the face of the sky if they want to eat.

If there is heavy rain, the hunters cannot hunt and the fishermen cannot catch fish. That day is basically equal to zero income.

In addition, there are accidents such as injuries and attacks, which will affect income.

If you think about the basic balance of income and expenditure for a day, and don't find a way to increase your income, the territory will have no future at all.

In order to attract more residents and let the savages join the territory, the territory must have enough food income.

Otherwise, the arrival of the savages will directly reduce the loyalty of the original villagers.

The reason was simple, they couldn't guarantee enough to eat, and the lord had to recruit wild men who couldn't work, which naturally made them feel insecure.

"I already understand the situation of your hunters, Amanda, you are farmers, I brought some wheat seeds when I came, I want to know if you can be responsible for planting wheat?"

Chen Bing nodded, then looked at the two farmers.

The two farmers are middle-aged women. Compared with the Orion, they have not much strength and cannot do the work of the Orion.

"My lord, we can grow wheat, but the area around the bay is not suitable for planting. We have to go to farther places to plant wheat. But if we plant in those places, even if we plant the wheat, it is difficult to let them wait until Ripe. Unguarded, hungry birds, and wild men will steal all the wheat day and night."

Amanda responded quickly.

"Then what kind of work do you farmers usually do?" Chen Bing asked a little surprised.

He knew it was not easy to grow wheat in the Gulf Territory, but the situation seemed to be more embarrassing than he imagined.

If it was in another territory, I am afraid that the wheat planting could be started on the first day of the game, but in the Gulf Territory, there must be enough manpower to ensure that the wheat will not be stolen, otherwise it will be a waste of effort.

"We are usually responsible for picking up some light, repairing some huts, and luckily we can pick some wild vegetables back."

Amanda hesitated for a moment, but still spoke, but her voice was obviously lowered.

It seems that they feel that their contribution in the tribe is very small, and they fear being expelled from the tribe.

If they are expelled from the tribe, they will become savages, and their life is completely insecure.

"Wheat must be planted. As for how to ensure safety, I will think of a way. After the meal, Amanda, you two don't have to do anything else, just go around the territory, put suitable places for planting, and fresh water sources, Find them all for me, I will let Bova go out with you, you don't have to worry about safety."

Chen Bing thought for a while and said to Amanda.

Amanda and another farmer's eyes lit up when they heard the words.

If they grow wheat, they can be regarded as having formal jobs to provide food for tribal production.

Chen Bing then asked about the priest Bane and the spearman Bowa.

Bane is just a trainee priest, he can deal with some minor injuries, and he can also do it if he is seriously injured, but the effect will be very poor.

In Bowa's case, at most he could mediate with a wild boar head-on, but he couldn't kill the wild boar. When he encountered a bigger beast, he could only choose to run away.

"I have a general understanding of the situation. This is the housekeeper I brought. Her name is Shelley. She will assist me in the management and construction of this territory in the future. She is also a chef with advanced cooking skills. Lena, you are a member of the tribe." Chef, next we will teach you real cooking skills, you have to study hard."

Chen Bing introduced Princess Shelley to the residents, and then said to everyone.

A chef with advanced cooking skills?

Everyone's eyes lit up.

Knowing advanced cooking means that they can make more delicious food, and their physical strength can be better maintained.

Lena is the trainee chef, a woman of her age.

"Yes, my lord!"

Hearing Chen Bing's order, Lina answered quickly, and at the same time her bright black eyes were filled with anticipation.

In this era, if you can have a good food cooking skill, you will definitely not have to worry about losing your territory, and you don't have to worry about becoming a savage in the future.

Two farmers like Amanda couldn't help looking over with envy after hearing what Chen Bing said.
