Lord of the People of Online Games (Lord of the Gaming World)

A caravan came to Xia Village and brought a lot of wood and grain.

This is the caravan of Xiaozhu Village, which was entrusted by Chutian to collect the supplies needed by Xia Village. Because of the commission provided by Chutian, the caravan in Xiaozhu Village has grown in size and now has 30 horses. The horses used by the caravan are still different from those used by the cavalry, and the price is also cheaper.

"Mr. Village Chief, in order to collect the supplies you asked for, we went back and forth between Langya City and Xia Village several times."

The caravan leader got off the carriage and came to the lord's mansion to visit Chutian.

"Thank you for your hard work. How is your village chief?"

Chutian met with the caravan leader of Xiaozhu Village. This leader is also a special talent - a businessman.

"Our village chief has recently been busy expanding the planting area of ​​mulberry trees and building a textile workshop. She also established a trade relationship with a silk shop in Langya City. In the future, Xiaozhu Village will provide a batch of raw silk and even silk to the silk shop every year."

The caravan leader took a sip of tea and mentioned the recent development of Xiaozhu Village.

Textile workshop? silk?

Chutian quickly understood what Xiaozhu Village was thinking.

Silk, tea, and porcelain are the famous specialties of the Eastern Han Dynasty. If different civilized areas are opened up in the future, whichever Eastern Han Dynasty lord's products are more competitive, businessmen from other civilized areas will naturally find him to buy goods.

The head of Xiaozhu Village is indeed a business man.

Players have various identities in reality, and they are proficient in different fields of knowledge, so it is not surprising that there are experts who can make nuclear bombs as lords. It's just that "Lord" has technological restrictions, and items that exceed the settings will be automatically invalid.

Chutian thought about it, and the caravan leader took out two blueprints from his arms: "These are the two blueprints you asked the villain to buy, the second-level shipyard blueprint and the second-level pier blueprint. For the following wood and grain, we will get them from The surrounding villages bought it. Our caravan made a little hard money."

Chu Tian received two drawings. In order to buy two blueprints, he paid a lot of real money. The second-level shipyard blueprint is 250 taels of silver, and it also comes with two shipbuilding skill books to prevent the lack of boatsmiths in the village. Boatmakers are rare among special talents, especially high-level boatmen who can build squat and building ships.

The second-level pier blueprint costs 150 taels of silver, which can accommodate a lot of small boats, but cannot accommodate medium and large warships, cargo ships, and sea ships.

Only Langya City has such blueprints for sale.

"Thanks a lot."

The ultimate purpose of building these two buildings in Chutian is to build a four-level fish market.

The fourth-level fish market can bring a lot of tax revenue, and it is a relatively high-efficiency building for Chutian, which spends money everywhere. As the saying goes, relying on mountains to eat mountains and relying on water to draft water, Xia Village is close to the Yi River, so it can fully take advantage of the freshwater fish resources and water transportation advantages of the Yi River.

"The villain is only there to support his family. The village chief has a job for the villain, but the villain is very grateful. The villain will go to transport the wood here."

The caravan leader only visited half a column of incense, and hurriedly went to collect supplies.

Chutian got two blueprints and immediately asked Li Kui to dispatch resources to build a second-level shipyard and a second-level port.

Xia Village already has a first-class shipyard and a first-class wharf. With the second-class blueprint, as long as it is expanded on the original basis, it requires less materials than rebuilding.

There are more types of ships that can be built by secondary shipyards. The types of ships that can now be built include small wooden boats, scout boats, small fishing boats, and small cargo ships.

Small plank boats: civilian paddle boats, suitable for water travel, but also for fishing, cargo transportation or combat, but with limited load and little defensive effect.

Small fishing boats: civilian fishing boats, suitable for inland rivers, lakes, and offshore use, which can improve fishing efficiency.

Small cargo ships: civilian transport ships, cargo ships with a net load of less than 10 tons, which can be used to transport food and other materials.

The first three ships are civilian ships. The so-called civilian use means that villagers can place orders with the shipyard to produce small wooden boats, small fishing boats, and cargo ships. As long as there are no warships under construction in the shipyard, they will generally take orders from villagers and receive income.

As for the scout ships that appear in the secondary shipyards, they already belong to the scope of military ships.

The so-called scout ship, the name comes from ancient records, that is, a small ship used to perform reconnaissance and patrol tasks, also called a sentry ship.

【Name】: Scout Ship (Sentry Ship)

[Grade]: Second-order ships

[Length]: 11.4 meters

[Width]: 2.43 meters

【Cost】: 10 taels of silver

[Configuration]: single mast, 1 oars and 8 oars, no parapet

[Evaluation]: A flexible and fast boat, lacking offensive and defensive means, suitable for reconnaissance, patrolling, challenging, setting up suspects, and ambush.

"When the secondary shipyard is completed, build a sentry ship."

Chutian has not been able to support a strong sailor, only one scout ship needs eight sailors.

The combat capability of the scout ship is better than nothing. For rowing boats, in order to ensure the speed, the number of sailors is generally more than the number of soldiers, that is to say, a scout ship is estimated to not be able to accommodate a few soldiers in addition to sailors.

A scout ship was built because Xia Village was close to the Yi River, and a sentry ship was needed to search the nearby waters. In "Lord", the Yi River with a drainage area of ​​170,000 square kilometers is a big river. When some free players explore this world, they find that there are water villages on some big rivers, so Chutian has to be alert to the threat from the Yi River.

In addition, water battles and naval battles are also a major setting of "Lord". For the lords of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the water battle on the Yangtze River was of course important, but the focus of most lords was still on land. But for the lords of some civilized areas, they will focus on naval battles, such as the Viking area, the Merchant of Venice area, and the Holy See area.

Chutian has consciously trained sailors.

If different civilization areas are opened, they will have to rely on navy to conquer other civilizations in the future.

It will take time to complete the second-level shipyard. Chutian recruited two carpenters and handed them the skills books for boatmen to study, so that they could be transferred to become boatmen.

At the same time, he ordered the recruitment of eight water-savvy civilians and let them transfer to sailors.

So Xia Village had its first sailor—eight sailors with a combat power of only 5.

"Xuzhou and Qingzhou are both sea-dependent states, and there are many deep-water ports, especially Qingdao in Jiaozhou Bay."

Chutian calculated that the actual distance between Langya City and Jiaozhou Bay was about 250 kilometers. The area of ​​"Lord" is increased by 10 times. If the curved surface of the three-dimensional space is ignored, the length of the side is increased by 3.16 times, and the straight-line distance between two points is increased by 4.47 times. In "Lord", the distance between Langya and Jiaozhou Bay is about 1100 kilometers.

"Too far."

Chu Tian shook his head, not thinking about things that were too far away, now Xia Village doesn't even have the ability to manufacture warships. The real warships are not scout ships, but ships such as walking Ke, 艨艟, fighting ships, and building ships.

Zuoke is a ship that can only be built by a third-level shipyard, and requires an intermediate shipbuilder. As for the cog, fighting ship, and building ship, more advanced shipyards and shipbuilders are required.
