Chapter 40 - The foundation of the foundation

After sorting out his thoughts, George looked at the new tasks on top of the scroll, which, according to the first two tasks, were the next important needs of the territory.

[Main Quest: The Basis for Gaining a Foothold - Build a Town]

[You already have the first batch of subjects, hurry up and build your town to dispel more mists and shelter more subjects.]

[Basic completion conditions:]

1. Have a food source (mill), a wood source (lumberyard), and a basic mineral source (coal mine, salt mine, iron mine).

[2. Have a church, a complete castle].

[3. Shelter 1000+ population.

[Complete the mission base reward (new investment): your shelter scroll, will unlock the ability: seal the demon. ]

[Spinoff Task 1: Own an outside manor (over 20km). Reward: Divine Grace Fire - Using the Seal of the Lord, open the Divine Grace Fire to envelop a land in Divine Grace and purify the evil demons and filth there. Description: Evil demons will be greatly weakened in the land of divine grace, and humans will be sheltered by great resistance in this place. Duration: 1 day.]

[Spinoff Task 2: Own an outer castle. Reward: Possess the ability to create the fires of divine grace (requires a church)]

[Side quest three: Destroy the source of the plague in the valley (bulldoze the Great Graveyard)! Reward: blueprint of the Shrine of the Spirits]

After seeing that main quest with the two linear quests, George rubbed his chin and launched into a daze.

'One thousand people... Sealing the demon... Divine Grace Fire...'' George pursed his lips and shook his head repeatedly.

He could see that this new mission was actually a suggestion from the God of Asylum on the future planning of his asylum. And if you want to develop well in the future, population and mining veins he extremely need.

Not to mention, to survive the terrible winter that the old blacksmith said, lumber yards and coal mines are definitely necessary.

And to fight more and more monsters, iron ore will also need.

After more and more people, then there must be manor. After all, Johannes' fields are limited and not particularly suitable for growing food.

But several mines, are in the hands of people who are not easy to mess with. It can be difficult to get your hands on them.

Not to mention the iron ore, the coal mine and salt mine is a very difficult task - in this vicinity, the best coal mine is the Viscount Geoffrey's, and the salt mine is in the southwest of the Viscount's territory ... The best estate near me is also the Viscount's. The land there is flat, fertile, and has the Pearl River and a small pier. In addition to wheat, there are many farms. Food and livestock are plentiful... This is for me to fight with him. Could it be that Lord Viscount believes in ancient gods?''

George thought of this and widened his eyes, thinking more and more that it was possible.

''As for that best iron mine... The countess's manor, then built on top of a special vein, and several mines in the valley are also in her territory...''

Shook his head, not to think about the Countess first, because it is not practical at the moment, but he was able to guess one thing, there is the territory of the Viscount and the Count, it seems that there is a problem, otherwise God will not give him a big pie, seducing him to grab it over only.

But there is about that coal mine, may be after some time, really crossed.

'That coal mine is the largest gathering place of survivors from me, just west of the stone village..."

According to the lords, the knight at the head of the group over there was always getting around. And he had more than a hundred soldiers under him. These two themselves snatched a village not too far away from him, so it's impossible to say when they will meet up with him.

But if you give him some time, you will go to him yourself without waiting for him to come over. As of now, everyone is busy with the autumn harvest, and that knight wants to rob, it must be after the autumn harvest. So they should have some preparation time.

George rubbed his eyes and organized his thoughts, he found that with the development of the shelter now, with the problems faced. Probably really follow the sequence of that task.

Mill (autumn harvest) - lumberyard - coal mine - salt mine - iron mine.

The lumberyard may have to be prepared to go forward in the next few days, because there is not enough wood now. And the school yard and the castle are in urgent need of repair. Otherwise another rain, it will not be good to repair.

Moreover, now the smithy to make weapons, the wood used are also the kind of substandard stuff ...

Thinking of this, George rubbed his head. Intended to rest for a while, then go to the blacksmith store and the cemetery around, by the way to watch the work of the people of the territory, the things to do today to do.

Before going to the smithy, he first snapped the word of the talisman on top of the hammer, followed the instructions on the scroll, and after aligning it, began to pray.

Immediately after, a new 'blueprint' was added to the things that could be made in the blacksmith store - the Word of God's Rune #1 Light.

The consumption is 3 divine grace points. If you use gems or other special items as materials, you can reuse it. Whereas if you use secret silver and engrave it on top of equipment, it is disposable.

' Unless there are other runes that can be combined, this is not too cost effective.'

George was curious about how the blacksmith store could forge equipment through the 'blueprint'. As far as he could see, this 'blueprint' was not some design scroll, and after the blueprint of the Word of God Rune appeared, the blacksmith store was just one more option.

But above the scroll was an additional prayer calling for the blueprint, it seems that there in the smithy, he could explore.

Taking a sip of water, George stopped sitting still. He stood up and walked towards the tavern door.

The morning autumn breeze is a bit cold, after walking out of the tavern, George, by the wind, immediately felt a lot of spirit.

The territory is very lively, although most people have gone to the field, but there are still some people are cleaning the mill and barn. Although those harvested grain, will also be placed in the two premises near the tavern. But the mill and barn is necessary to clean up as soon as possible, and also have to repair repair, or after a heavy snowfall, it will have to collapse!

And there has now become a rat nest, after cleaning up can solve a lot of rodent infestation.

But looking at this hot and busy, the progress should be very fast, these two days should be able to finish.

George blew the cool autumn breeze, cloak clattering. He looked towards the other side for a while. Can see in the distance there are some fires. That should be the mill, barn was cleaned out of the rotting grain, was sent to the nearby fields, was burned into fertilizer.

Territorial people were going back and forth between the fields, the mill, the cemetery and the territory, picking water and pushing carts, transporting goods and corpses.

These crofters worked quickly, and the fields near the mill had been largely harvested, while a distant fire seemed to light up another spot, that seemed to be lit by weeds and other things that had been cleared after the harvest.

'Still stuck in farming fire ah... But modern people burn straw too.''

''It's good that the collar people are working fast, but it also means that there's not much inside the fields... But most of what is grown near the mill is wheat, the potatoes and sweet potatoes are elsewhere. These two things should still yield well, even if they don't grow too well because of the insect plague, but after the harvest, you can still end up sowing some more autumn potatoes.'

Also cabbage can be planted in the fall.

George spread the scroll and looked at it, and found that [Food: 121] had changed to [Food: 167].

''It's only been a little over an hour, this growth rate is still very fast, the efficiency of the territory people is really high... But now it has already collected five or six acres, right? 1 food is 10 pounds, so an acre of land... Only seventy pounds of food?!
