Chapter 48 Comprehensive Exploration
In the evening, I calculated the time together with Su Yan. The corn planted in the first season of Yi Village Territory will be harvested in about 7 days. It just so happens that I can take the army and Su Yan to explore outside for a week, and I can barely cover the west, south and Explore the entire eastern coastline.
Starting from the lord's hut to the west, go to the west seaside first, then go hunting all the way south along the west seaside, and then turn to the east after reaching the south seaside, walk the coastline of nearly 20 kilometers to the south, turn from the southeast corner to Go north along the east coastline until you reach the mouth of the creek and then go to the territory. The whole journey will take about 7 days.
So for this comprehensive exploration, Qu Mao estimates that he will have to stay outside for at least 7 days. All the hunted beasts will not be disassembled on the spot, but will be put into his or Su Yan's backpack, and then taken out after three days and then disassembled by the system. Wait for seven days. After returning to the territory, there will be a lot of meat.
Even if all the corn harvested in the first season is turned into seeds and replanted, it can last for a long time.
Su Nan still stays in the territory. Although Sunan is only a citizen, after all, he used to be Su Yan's housekeeper in the aboriginal forces. Although he is not a hero but has certain management skills, Qu Mao and Su Yan are all out, so he can only be kept in the territory to guard the house.
Su Nan's loyalty has increased to 85% since Qu Mao told him to go to Yancheng Port to purchase, and Qu Mao is also very relieved to keep him at home.
Every day, Qu Mao would take advantage of the only opportunity for a message that was less than a hundred characters long to interact with Fu Zhi and Lai Dima on the lord communication channel. At worst, he had to finalize the list of items to be purchased next time. Fuzhi said that he could still sponsor Qu Mao with nearly 3,000 gold coins next time. Lai Dioma also treated Qu Mao as his big customer.
Qu Mao led the army slowly and began to explore the island along the coastline.
After a day of hunting yesterday, Zhang Da had already reached level 19. Of course, Qu Mao stripped off his equipment and took him to a room in the lord's hut, completing the process of advancing from the first-level spearman to the second-level halberd soldier.
After becoming a second-tier halberd soldier, before departure, Qu Mao appointed Zhang Da as the captain of the spearmen, in charge of another second-tier halberd soldier and Zhao Pan. The other three spearmen were also under Zhang Da's management, but stayed in within the territory.
This time, the third-tier sharpshooter Chafidel, 3 second-tier archers, 2 second-tier hunters, 2 second-tier halberd soldiers (including Zhang Da), 1 first-tier spearman, and 2 second-tier archers were brought out this time. There were 11 first-tier stone-throwing soldiers, and two second-tier throwing ax fighters were left in the territory by Qu Mao because of their lack of range.
The army marched and explored for three days. Su Yan found a water area in the southwest corner of the deserted island where a military port could be built. Qu Mao had also seen this water area at first, but it could not be regarded as a natural seaport because the coastline was too curved.
The last time Qu Mao explored by himself, he didn't even realize that it was a seaport.
This also means that when this port is to be built into a military port in the future, a large amount of engineering must be completed. At least a gate must be built at the sea outlet, or a warship berth or other security defense measures must be rebuilt. It is definitely not possible to face the sea directly. Once there is a large storm, the warship may be completely destroyed.
On the fourth day, Su Yan found a place that could be used to build a civilian port at a place about 15 kilometers east of the site of the military port, closer to the sea to the east.
The requirements for a civilian port are not as high as those for a military port, and the depth of sea water is not as deep as that required for a military port. Even if it is to be built in the future, the amount of construction work will be much smaller than the amount of construction work for the military port selected the day before.
Qu Mao directly rolled his eyes and turned Su Yan back, what was he thinking? If you want food but you don’t have food, you want tools but you don’t have tools, and the surrounding area of the lord’s hut has not been completely settled, how could it be possible to open a small sub-base dozens of kilometers away?
Then Qu Mao led the army to continue walking along the southern seashore for less than 2 kilometers before turning north, because they had reached the eastern seashore of the deserted island.
Continue along the east coast to the north for less than five kilometers, and you will arrive at the beach.
This beach was visited by Qu Mao and Su Yan a long time ago, and they have already discussed that it will be used as a salt drying field in the future.
The salt farm is not a small construction project, but Su Yan told Qu Mao that among the skilled talents Sunan has prepared in Yancheng, at least 20 workers from the salt farm in Yancheng have been prepared, and their families account for almost one-sixth of the skilled talents. one.
In the future, as long as you go to Yancheng Port, you can take all these people back, and then you can rely on these people to build the salt farm, and you don’t need Qu Mao to worry about it.
After walking to the beach, the speed of the whole team has increased a lot, because the beach is at least one kilometer from the coastline without any vegetation, and the absence of any vegetation means that there are no wild animals.
Qu Mao did not ask the army to return to the densely vegetated woods to continue hunting. You can easily pick up a lot of shellfish, sea oysters and snails on the beach. At most, it is more difficult to go to the sea to catch some sea fish.
Su Yan and Qu Mao didn't waste the opportunity to easily get in touch with seawater on the beach. They almost filled all the diabolo tubes they carried in their backpacks with seawater. After more than ten days of drying, they didn't even save a catty of salt.
When they came to the tidal flats where the creek flows into the sea, Qu Mao first let the troops rest for an hour, and set up a bonfire with the sparks from the collision of weapons. After everyone had a feast of seafood barbecue, they headed towards the lord's hut. March in a straight line along the creek.
Before 3 p.m., Qu Mao and Su Yan brought the army back to the territory of Yi Village, and it took them a whole week to leave the territory to explore.
Qu Mao is also eager to see how the territory develops when he is not around.
However, observing the increasing amount of resources on the territory attribute panel every day, Qu Mao believes that there must be no major accidents, otherwise the amount of resources cannot increase steadily every day.
When the army returned to the territory and entered the eyelids of Qu Mao and others, the first thing was that the corn field that had grown to a height of nearly two meters was gone. It must have been harvested by Jia Sixie and Franklin King.
Nothing else has changed much. Seeing Qu Mao, Su Yan and others return, the citizens who were still working near the lord's hut stood up to say hello, and Sunan, who got the news, also ran towards the lord's hut immediately. Come.
When Qu Mao and Su Yan were not in the territory, Sunan was basically managing the territory, and he had to report the situation to Qu Mao and Su Yan.
