Natural Disaster

Chapter 205

The scorpion is back.

The fearsome arrived at a nearby station occupied by the fearsome tribe, and left one by one, leaving only a part of the soldiers guarding the station. Humans have nearly five thousand mercenaries stationed at the Xueguang Station, which can completely guarantee the safety of the station.

The increase in the number of fighters is a good thing, but the problem of food shortages has become more serious. Although it can be solved by transferring food from the camp. It’s just that most people’s backpack space is too small, and they still stay in the original 5 grid space!

What can I put in a five-compartment backpack?

I’m afraid it won’t be enough to put all the ingredients!

Zhang Mu has upgraded his backpack several times and only has 20 tiles!

Department stores sell treasure chests, but the treasure chests bought are restricted and cannot be brought on trains for long-distance transportation.

A large number of players travel to and from the station, and the toll will be extremely high, and the mercenary group does not have the ability to afford it for a long time. It is not a long-term solution to maintain the consumption of Blood Light Station through camp supplies. If Terrans want to gain a foothold, they must solve the food problem on the spot.

Zhang Mu briefly recounted the situation in the Bloodlight Plain: “You can get a little food from hunting, but the Bloodlight Plain will burst into blood waves every three to five times. There will not be many ordinary monsters left, but the boss-level monsters are widely distributed, and ordinary mercenaries are easy to encounter. It’s dangerous, so you can’t rely on hunting for food.”

The leaders of the major mercenaries fell into contemplation.

Wu Feng suggested: “Why not let the mercenaries solve the problem of travel expenses and food? After the mercenaries have eaten the food, can they spend money to buy them? There is no need to reimburse these expenses at public expense!”

Huang Jianye said: “The ride cost 20 gold coins, and the round trip cost 40 gold coins. Ordinary mercenaries themselves don’t have much spare money, travel expenses are at their own expense, and food is also at their own expense. I am afraid that few mercenaries are willing to risk staying in the blood plains. The number of people at the station Without it, safety cannot be guaranteed!”

“Yes, letting the mercenaries pay for the money still has to consume a lot of human wealth. Transporting food is not feasible!” Zhang Mu interrupted and said, “I have a few long-term and short-term solutions, which may solve the food problem. .”

“Oh, what good strategy does the president have?”

Zhang Mu pointed at the map with a sword and said: “There are three short-term methods: hunting, transporting, and plundering. There are no monsters nearby. You can go to farther places and hunt for insufficient food, and then transport from the camp to solve the problem. As for plundering. …There are a lot of scavengers nearby, and we can get some food to some extent!”

After listening to Zhang Mu’s suggestion, Huang Jianye narrowed his eyes: “Snatching the scavengers is a way to kill two birds with one stone. It can clean up nearby troubles and hide resources from the scavengers. Scavengers themselves are bandits and treasure hunters. Those who live by looting, have food in their hands, and tools such as trucks and artillery are all needed materials.”

“So what is the long-term law?”

“In the long run, hunting, transporting, and plundering are of course not feasible. But there are two ways to solve it! The first is to gather the goblins and let the goblins help the human race to cultivate the land. The second is to use special channels. Buy, there is a place called the’black market’ on the Bloodlight Plains, hosted by merchants from the outside world, and we can buy some food on a regular basis.”

Goblin planting skills, and news of the black market, Zhang Mu did not reserve to tell everyone that everyone was amazed. He didn’t expect that Lingtian could make it by himself, which was really unexpected. Ordinary soil moisturizes in the spiritual ground for a few days to become spiritual soil. There are dozens of spiritual soils in the dawn camp, how much spiritual soil will be produced!

As long as there are enough goblins to grow the land, food is not a problem at all, and it can also increase the speed of human resources production!

What an exciting news!

Zhang Mu doesn’t know much about the black market. He only knows that participating in the black market will face great risks. According to the description of Goblins, the opening time of the black market is irregular, ranging from more than half a month to a short period of five or six days. It has been a long time since the market opened last time, and I believe it will open soon.

Zhang Mu prepared a huge sum of 20,000 gold coins, only to wait for the opening of the black market to see what happened.

As for the goblins, they have been transferred to the Blood Light Station one after another.

Zhang Mu returned from the camp and took some samples of the spiritual soil and handed them to the Elder Goblin for inspection.

Elder Goblin exclaimed excitedly: “This…this soil…”.

Zhang Mu frowned and said, “There is a problem with the spiritual soil?”

Elder Goblin shook his head: “No…no…I just have never seen such a high-quality supernatural earth!”

Zhang Mu was puzzled: “What is the quality of spiritual soil?”

Elder Goblin replied: “The longer the spiritual soil is in the spiritual ground and the longer it is moisturized by the spiritual veins, the better the quality. The spiritual soil is dug out after only 3-7 days. It belongs to the inferior spiritual soil. One month is a middle-grade spiritual soil, and three months is a top-grade spiritual soil. The spiritual soil for more than half a year can be called the best. The spiritual soil provided by the adults is the best soil!”

Before the establishment of the dawn camp, the spiritual veins may have existed. The soil in the spiritual field does not know how long it will be nourished, and the goblins are right.

“How long can this soil last?”

“Goblins are confident, so that the newly created spiritual field will not degenerate for three months!”

Zhang Mu calculated that 30 mature goblins can plant an acre of land. Among the goblins captured by Zhang Mu, most of them were elderly and children, and only 60 people provided one mu, which was about 5 mu. This area was already very large.

The maturation cycle of planting food in the camp’s spiritual field generally takes 3-7 time. The higher the level of food, the longer the maturation time. The power of the pseudo-spiritual field is limited, and it is normal to take 1-2 days to mature. If you plant magic herbs, the cycle will be long. According to goblins, magic herbs consume a lot of spiritual fields. Planting herbs in pseudo-spiritual fields will greatly reduce the useful life of the fields.

Lingtian specializes in growing food. Herbs are not considered for the time being.

Now we have to consider the issue of the amount of farmland.

There is probably only a basketball court in the area of ​​a spiritual field in the Shuguang camp, which is less than half an acre.

If you excavate the spiritual soil in the field and backfill the soil to rebuild it, it will take a few days for the spiritual veins to moisturize, before the ordinary soil will be transformed into the spiritual soil and the ability to plant will be restored, so the farming will affect the production of the camp. It is impossible to transfer ten acres and eight acres at a time.

Zhang Mu plans to build one mu of spiritual land first, although there is only one mu, which basically meets the consumption of hundreds of Huangquan mercenaries. Solve Huangquan’s food problem first, and other mercenary groups will come slowly, not too late!

The location of farming should also be carefully considered.

Zhang Mu was not familiar with the Bloodlight Plains, and he was not worried about any place, so he chose the place where it would meet the Misty Mountain Forest. Although the distance is a bit far away, there are several armored vehicles and off-road trucks in Huangquan, and it does not take too long to drive back and forth.

A 13 or 14-year-old girl found Zhang Mu: “Brother Mu Mu!”

Zhang Mu was a little surprised: “Xiaoguo, what’s the matter?”

Xiao Guo Xiao blushed and said: “The head sister is looking for you, there may be something that needs trouble…”

What can Liu Shiyan do?

Zhang Mu followed Xiaoguo into a stone house. Liu Shuyan, Sun Lin, and Wang Ling were all present. Wang Ling was the same, standing in the corner silently, with a thin body, his messy long hair draped down, covering most of his face. Gu Zi played a hexagonal dart without even lifting his head.

Sun Lin was wearing a robes and holding a long staff standing aside, and when she saw Zhang Mu’s eyes, she smiled cautiously.

Liu Shuyan stood in the middle of the two women. She was more than half a head taller than the two. She didn’t bother to wipe the blood on her leather armor. When Zhang Mu came in, she immediately stood up from her seat: “Wood, Fengyue mercenary wants to make land, borrow I have some spiritual soil!”

Liu Shiyan is Liu Shiyan, and it is straightforward to say that it is never circumstantial.

Zhang Mu knew that Liu Shuyan was a person, and he didn’t feel abrupt or rude, but was a little embarrassed: “Huangquan is also building land, I am afraid that there is not much spiritual soil available.”

“Only half an acre.” Liu Shuyan said directly: “How much is it, you say!”

Half an acre.

It’s so much to dig a whole field!

Zhang Mu thinks about it, Huangquan has 2 and 2 level spiritual fields, and 5 level 1 spiritual fields. Among them, the second level spiritual fields are used to grow herbs or high-level food. The first level spiritual fields are generally used to grow mushrooms and low-level ingredients such as spiritual valleys. Huangquan The food reserve in the camp is very rich, and it is not bad for a few days of harvest.

Zhang Mu thought for a while: “Okay, I will send someone to transport it. As for the money, it doesn’t matter, Huang Quan will not be so poor.”

Liu Shuyan knew that Huangquan had a wealth of wealth, and Fengyue couldn’t afford too much money, but instead appeared to be petty. However, taking other people’s things for nothing, not in Liu Shuyan’s style, she gave Zhang Mu more than 100 copies of Level 2 magic tobacco in exchange. Level 2 tobacco is very popular among mercenaries, each worth dozens of gold coins.

Magic tobacco effectively relieves mental stress and makes people feel relaxed and happy. It is the most suitable for mercenaries to relieve stress and tension. Tobacco also has the effects of relieving pain, calming, and a small amount of attribute enhancement. It is a good consumable no matter whether it is fighting or daily.

“Okay, then I’m not welcome!” Zhang Mu thought of one thing: “By the way, the lone wolf mercenary goblins…”

“You asked too late, it has been sold.” Liu Shuiyan said lightly: “10,000 gold coins, sold to the Dragon Soul mercenary group!”

“What?” Zhang Mu hated that iron could not become a steel road: “Is Ye Qianqiu’s mind flooded? He really treats goblins as goods for sale!”

“The lone wolf didn’t buy the land, and he couldn’t make the sacred land.”

“Goblins are born with gathering skills, at least 50 gatherers!”

Zhang Mu couldn’t wait to beat Ye Qianqiu. Does this guy have nothing in his head except for fighting? Zhang Mu will divide goblins to Lone Wolf and Fengyue, because the second regiment and Huangquan are close, which is considered a kind of alliance.

For 10,000 gold coins, Ye Qianqiu actually transferred the goblins to Huangquan’s competitors, and he never thought about discussing with Zhang Mu. Goblins would be unwilling to be transferred around with goods on the spot. Although this is a race with no dignity, what should I do if something goes wrong… Humans now rely on goblins to feed their stomachs!

Zhang Mu immediately announced the formulation of a new regulation for goblins.

Goblins are part of the mercenary union and cannot be beaten or sold at will. Goblins need to pay wages to cultivate land for humans. The standard is set by the trade union. It cannot be high or low. All goblins are treated equally in all aspects of food and accommodation… Zhang Mu gives goblins uniform benefits and treatment, which can also be avoided. Some aspects of the Dragon Soul engage in ghosts and incite the goblins of Huangquan.
