Chapter 353 Purchase in January
The development of the territory of Yi Village has been on the right track since January of the third year of Tianxuan. Qu Mao is very satisfied that the heroes can spontaneously complete the tasks they have arranged.
When January came, Maffei Tranny had already brought the cargo of 10 sea ships, and the 100,000 units of blank runestones that Qu Mao gave him, accompanied by Fur Swamp leading the navy soldiers to drive the sea ship , heading towards the Black Harbor of the Mughal Empire.
Qu Mao himself was running back and forth between various construction sites, busy collecting cheating points, more than 30,000 cheating points made Qu Mao extremely busy.
But soon Qu Mao discovered that the Yi Village Territory seemed to be booming to expand infrastructure construction, but it seemed that the development did not have any quality at all. Basically, it was a simple and simple copy of the past village model.
In order to resettle the residents, all the buildings in the new villages are built in other villages. At most, the newly expanded villages do not build functional buildings, and the newly built villages only build functional buildings.
Higher-quality buildings, such as wonder buildings, are all in Yi Village, and rare buildings such as magic towers, taverns, and libraries are also in Yi Village, not even Yi Village, the center of the outlying island.
Well, even the general buildings have not been upgraded recently, resulting in 34 new villages that are just low-level replications, with no development quality to speak of.
The glass factory is considered to be the only building, and production has already started in Yi Village, but Yi Village's territory cannot even build a second glass factory, and there are no blueprints.
Shipyards, naval barracks, and refugee shelters can be upgraded directly when conditions are met, and there is no need to find buildings with high-level architectural blueprints. However, due to the shortage of gold coins, they have not been upgraded yet.
The upgrade price of these buildings is generally not cheap, almost every building upgrade costs more than 500 gold coins, such as the military port, even 1000 gold coins.
The cheapest is arable land, but the problem is that there is no shortage of food in Yi Village's territory due to the gamified planting mechanism. Therefore, the arable land in Yi Village's territory definitely does not need too many people to cultivate it.
With the gradual completion of the project in the territory of Yi Village, the long-term resettlement of the people must be reconsidered. Either a new project must be opened, or more resource mines must be realized, or more wild resource mines must be captured. However, At least the new field resource mine on Easy Isle hasn't spawned.
From the end of December in the second year of Tianxuan, the information that Qu Mao communicated with Lai Dima and Fuzhi through the lord's communication channel every day focused on the high-level architectural drawings of general buildings, especially the high-level architectural drawings of some important functional buildings. construction drawings.
At the Heroes Meeting in Yicun Territory at the end of December, Qu Mao had already confirmed with Lai Dima that the goods to be purchased in January of the third year of Tianxuan were the blueprints for the construction of the first-level military port, but the two had not negotiated on the price.
On January 5th of the third year of Tianxuan, Lai Dima reluctantly agreed to set the price at 245 gold coins. Qu Mao used 245 gold coins to purchase the architectural drawings of the first-level military port, and then began to discuss with Su Yan about upgrading the functional buildings. things.
After listening to Qu Mao's explanation, Su Yan nodded and said: "My lord, this subordinate thinks that your so-called important functional buildings must be upgraded is very correct.
The last time we opened 160 treasure chests, we actually issued a blueprint for the construction of the first-order civil dock. You can take it and use it, and then we can upgrade our civilian dock. "
Qu Mao gave Su Yan a white look, and said, "Su Yan, you know I'm not talking about civilian docks, which only cost 5 gold coins to upgrade, and you think it's necessary for me to discuss this trivial matter with you seriously. what?
I’m mainly talking about the construction blueprint of the Tier 1 military port. I just bought it back with 245 gold coins. A Tier 0 military port is upgraded to a Tier 1 military port. Not counting resources and labor, the upgrade cost alone will cost 1,000 gold coins. "
Su Yan sighed, and said: "My lord, you also know that upgrading a zero-tier military port to a first-tier military port not only costs 1,000 gold coins, but also a lot of resources, and the construction period is 180 days.
Moreover, during the upgrade stage, the zero-level military port can only realize the general functions of the zero-level military port. "
Qu Mao said: "I know, Su Yan, that's why I came to discuss with you.
Sylvia Ocean has built another zero-level military port on the west side of the outlying island, which means that our zero-level military port on Easy Island can be upgraded to a first-level military port. "
Su Yan sighed again, and said: "My lord, the construction cycle of the zero-level military port is 150 days, and your third shift will take 50 days. How long has Sylvia been repairing?"
Qu Mao said: "Su Yan, no matter what, the zero-level military port must be upgraded.
In addition, the shipyard must also be upgraded, as long as possible, the refugee shelters, magic towers, taverns, etc. must all be upgraded..."
Su Yan stretched out her hand to support her forehead, and said, "My lord, don't you know how many gold coins you have?
The shipyard needs 600 gold coins to upgrade to one level; the magic tower needs 500 gold coins to upgrade to one level; the tavern to upgrade to one level needs 300 gold coins...The upgrade construction time of these buildings is at least 100 days, you..."
Not to mention other things, the shipyard and military port must be upgraded, and the refugee shelter can wait until our territory and the lord's hut are upgraded before continuing to upgrade. Now 6-10 leaders per day are not enough.
One civilian dock is only 5 gold coins. Now there are 10 zero-level civilian docks in Yidao, one zero-level civilian dock in Outlying Island and Sky Island. It only takes a week for the zero-level civilian dock to be built, and this can be gradually upgraded.
Empty islands can accommodate up to three civilian piers, and outlying islands have slightly more, but at most it is impossible to accommodate 10 civilian piers. Now you can also consider building a few more civilian piers on outlying islands and empty islands.
Easy island civil docks upgrade two zero-level civilian docks each time, empty islands build two civilian docks, and outlying islands build four new civilian docks.
For outlying islands and empty islands, after the new zero-level civilian dock is built, then upgrade the original zero-level civilian dock, which will be perfect.
Su Yan, you have to be clear that our Yi Village territory has experienced such a long period of development. The population has exceeded 63,000, which is infinitely close to 64,000, but our development is still very low-level and primitive.
Even if new villages are being built everywhere or old villages are divided into new villages, it is basically some simple repetition and copying, without any quality at all.
In fact, this kind of development is helpful to the strength improvement of our Yi Village Territory, but it is very helpful for the strength improvement of Yi Village Territory. We have to find ways to increase the quality of our development, starting with high-level buildings. "
Su Yan rolled her eyes, and said: "Sir, of course my subordinates understand the need for high-quality development, but the premise is that the gold coins in our Yi Village territory must keep up.
For the development of all forces, population is a resource, but we are isolated overseas. Even if the population increases, it cannot be converted into a necessary resource for our development in the first place.
There are poll tax, agricultural tax, and commercial tax in the aboriginal forces. We don’t collect any tax now, and we don’t apportion corvee to the population in the territory. We basically use our own people to replace labor. They also take care of food and housing, and occasionally pay salaries to the leaders.
The development of the entire Yi Village territory at this stage is mainly about leaving but not entering, my lord.
The upgrades of military ports, magic towers, taverns, shipyards, naval barracks, refugee shelters, etc. that you think of, naturally, the subordinates often think about it, but they suffer from lack of gold coins, and there are so many people who need to be resettled. "
Qu Mao was taken aback by what Su Yan said, and he said after a while: "Su Yan, you have thought of everything I think, that's good.
But we still need to think about how to quickly upgrade our military ports, shipyards, naval barracks, magic towers, taverns, libraries and other rare and important functional buildings. We have never been rich in gold coins, but Haven't we still developed to the present?
We can find ways to overcome anything, and there must be no conflicting emotions inside. "
Su Yan said: "My lord, this subordinate has no intention of confronting you. My lord is wholeheartedly for the development of the territory, so this subordinate naturally sees it.
Now we have brought back 60,000 gold coins from Yancheng Port, after settlement of military expenses and heroes’ salaries at the end of December, there are only about 17,000 gold coins left.
There are some other consumption and settlement accounts at the end of the second year of Tianxuan, and the subordinates have not yet dealt with them clearly. After calculation, I am afraid that there are still 15,000 gold coins left.
Not counting the commissions used by the local people for construction projects, the military expenditure alone exceeds 9,000 gold coins every month. My lord, it is very likely that we will not last this gold coin until the end of January.
In the future, the scale of 32,000 soldiers will be maintained for a long time every month. On average, each soldier will spend 5 silver coins a month, which means that the monthly military expenditure will need to be fixed at 16,000 gold coins for a long time.
Dear person, you only sell 100,000 units of blank rune stones for 15,000 gold coins a month. "
Qu Mao felt like crying after Su Yan's calculations, and he said after a while: "Su Yan, it's fine, I understand.
Let’s talk about the income from warship sales first. It is said that 20 small warships can be sold for 9,000 gold coins. Even after deducting the market expenses, there are more than 8,900 gold coins.
Maffei Trani will soon return from Black Harbor City, and the sales revenue of 100,000 units of blank rune stones will definitely be transferred to Yi Village's territorial account. "
Su Yan said: "At present, only 12 warships have been sold, and there are still 8 ships that have not been sold, so the subordinates have not settled back to the Yi Village territory account.
100,000 units of blank rune stones, I am afraid that the blank rune stones in Black Harbor City will be in a saturated market for a year or two. This cannot be used as the long-term income of the territory, my lord. "
Qu Mao nodded, and said: "Quality development must be carried out. Let's wait for Maffei to come back and look at the gold coins."
