Online Game: Island War

Before the end of the year, Lanye Island and Chambord Islands finally entered the fusion range of Huanghuang Island, and the people on these two islands officially belonged to Lei Jiu's rule.

In view of the fact that there were not many killings when the Huanghuang Island was occupied, and the owners of the two islands have been killed for more than two years, and in the past two years, the navy has carried some people from the administrative department to promote and manage it from time to time. The resistance of the islanders of the two islands is not strong.

What's more, compared with the two islands, the current Huanghuang Island can be regarded as a colossal monster, and people can't afford to resist much.

The two islands were merged, and the affiliated island Gensokyo Island, which is about the same distance away, also entered the range of 3,600 kilometers at this time.

For more than two years, because Lei Jiu didn't limit its fusion islands, the development of Gensokyo was not bad.

Every year, except for Qi Wenchuan who would send someone to collect 10% of his total income as a donation, few people on Huanghuang Island would think of them.

Now that the other party has entered the fusion range of Huanghuang Island, the contact and communication between the two parties will inevitably increase in the future.

The benefits brought by the affiliated island contract to Huanghuang Island: God can enjoy +1; the maximum moving speed of the island +50 m/h; all research time of the research center -5%; prestige gain +10% benefits.

These have been affecting Huanghuang Island.

But... the benefits of the god position will not have much meaning in the future. When the Emperor River Temple enters Huanghuang Island, even if Huanghuang Island continues to upgrade, there will be no new public sacrifice gods.

The public sacrifice system is equivalent to being cut off by the arrival of the temple.

Those that existed in the past can continue to be sacrificed, but no more places can be added in the future.

The bonus of the island's maximum movement speed has now become the most favored point of Lei Jiu among the benefits brought by the subsidiary contract.

There is no way, for Lei Jiu, the island's moving speed is too slow.

Although this speed is acceptable for hundreds of years of game history, it is unacceptably slow for Lei Jiu who wants to absorb a lot of growth nutrients from players and consolidate his foundation.

Now merging a level 3 island is only a few hundred square kilometers in area, but even the slowest developing player has an island area of ​​over 10,000.

The number of players whose area has crossed the 6-level threshold of 100,000 has exceeded 100.

More importantly, the resources of the player's island are more abundant than these small islands in the sea.

Randomly fusing a player's island, the value obtained is higher than the small island he has fused for several months.

Of the more than 100 players who broke through the 6th-level island, many of them did not rush up by merging the island a little bit, but because of good luck, they won one or two island battles recently. After merging the opponent's island, the area instantly exceeded 100,000 square meters kilometer mark.

The 13 player islands near Chen Island are heading towards Huanghuang Island, with an area ranging from 1,000 to 30,000 to 40,000 square kilometers. After the integration, Huanghuang Island will grow considerably.

But... because the distance between the two parties is too far, it will take almost three years to wait.

 …

In a blink of an eye, more than four years passed by.

It is now January 1, 11th year of the Tianxiang calendar, and in 3 months, it will be 10 years since the game world was opened.

In the past four years, the area of ​​Huanghuang Island has grown from 160,000 square kilometers to 690,000 square kilometers.

Among the growth of 530,000 square kilometers, a player island contributed.

That's right, there are 15 seats, not 13.

The other two were the two players who had the misfortune to break into the coverage area of ​​Huanghuang Island's route in the past four years, and they were swallowed by Lei Jiu without any suspense.

Unlike the current players who need to spend a relatively long time from the start of the island battle to the end of the war, neither of these two islands lasted for 10 days.

It can be said that even some obvious waves failed to turn over.

Although the average strength of island master players has been greatly improved, the power of players without super ranks basically does not exist.

But...these improvements don't mean much in front of Huanghuang Island, the gap is too big.

Now, the population of Huanghuang Island is close to 90 million.

For Huanghuang Island, which has more than 45 million hectares of arable land, reasonable and standardized agricultural management, fertile soil, abundant irrigation resources, and a certain amount of chemical fertilizer support, it is relatively easy to support a population of 90 million.

45 million hectares, that is nearly 700 million mu of arable land, which is half of China's modern total arable land area.

Huanghuang Island's current grain yield per mu is not inferior to that of the earth. Without the development of animal husbandry and breeding, it can fully support a population of 400 to 500 million.

Of course, considering that half of the population of Huanghuang Island is red-haired rice buckets that eat 5 times more than ordinary people, on average, the per capita food consumption of Huanghuang Island is 3 times that of the earth, but even so, the current Huanghuang Island It can also support the food consumption of 150 million people.

Originally, Lei Jiu planned to insist on filling up the population that the food could support.

But in the past year or so, he has gradually discovered that the labor force on the island is obviously somewhat surplus.

Because the labor efficiency of the red-haired species is very high, even without mechanized operations, the labor force consumed in agriculture is only a little over 10 million, which is the kind that counts both men and women.

It is not a problem for rural women on earth to farm the fields, let alone red-haired women.

For the rest, quarrying and mining, urban road construction, and water conservancy projects, the three largest labor-consuming households other than agriculture, are slowly approaching saturation.

It's not that the infrastructure on the island has been completely completed. After all, infrastructure construction has stages, but it is basically not over.

Considering the rationality of labor distribution, Huanghuang Island is already somewhat deformed.

Unlike the modern earth, there are many light industries to consume labor, increase product types and total volume, and increase the value of total social products.

Although the workshops on Huanghuang Island have made considerable progress in the past four years, due to the limitation of the upper limit of technology, in terms of categories, they cannot be compared with modern society at all.

Generally speaking, it is not even comparable to modern times.

The total amount of products produced is completely inferior to the wages paid to all laborers, which will inevitably lead to skyrocketing prices.

Although food prices are still relatively stable due to overcapacity of food, and no more serious problems will occur, but the prices of some new products used in daily life have risen similarly to luxury goods, which is a bit jaw-dropping.

Although it is normal for new products to be more expensive, even for those old products, the speed of price reduction is not fast, just like cloth, the price has not yet dropped.

Usually, the islanders measure a few bolts of cloth a year, and making two or three new clothes is considered a luxury.

In the past year, the administrative department of the island has been expanding the number and scale of workshops in several light industrial cities and adjusting the labor distribution structure in order to change this situation.

And Lei Jiu finally gave up his insistence on developing the breeding industry 10 years later, and raised pigs, cattle, sheep, and chickens on a large scale...

Pork, beef, milk, mutton, eggs, leather, wool, etc., began to quickly enter the market and thousands of households.

Of course, due to production issues, the current price is also ridiculously high, but with development, it will gradually become normal.

In three months, it will be 10 years. At that time, the system will cancel the population refresh function. Lei Jiu plans to enable the population refresh function for the last time in the near future.

Increase the population of Huanghuang Island to 100 million.

Speaking of which, it has been more than a year and a half since the population refresh was closed last time.

Although a large amount of food has been consumed due to the development of the breeding industry in the past year, the overall food reserves on the island are still enough for the entire island to feed for more than a year.

As long as there is food in hand, Lei Jiu will not panic.

As for other problems that may arise, we will talk about it later.

After all, the population can no longer be refreshed directly in the future, and this last chance must be seized...
