Son of the Olden Days

The large force returned to the settlement in the afternoon.

Although the settlement square has been widened in accordance with Sol's request, the 114 newly added people at this moment, plus the original 27 people in the settlement, are densely packed in the open space, making it seem a bit crowded.

The first day of new members joining is destined to be busy and chaotic.

The busyness mainly comes from the arrangement of various things, such as the distribution of accommodation and supplies, or the statistics of new members, and so on. The chaos is because they suddenly came to a new place. Many people are not accustomed to the order of the territory. It is inevitable that there are various ideas.

In the square of the settlement, Sol gave a routine speech as the lord, and the new and old leaders below listened to it fairly seriously, after all, this is related to their future life.

Although Saul didn't like this way of playing tricks, he still needed the necessary mental comfort.

Sol knows very well that the key to territorial stability has never lie in what you said and what kind of dreamy prospects you have woven. It's what you can give right now, how much can you give, and what kind of changes you can bring to the lives of everyone in the future.

This speech was mixed with some appropriate exaggerations and encouragement, but overall it was quite satisfactory.

Next is the routine celebration banquet.

Let go of the belly to eat and drink, at least it is necessary for the leaders who have come all the way.

At first glance, it seems that the 20-odd people in the original settlement are struggling to manage the 100 newly arrived people, but in fact the things that were absorbed were done that night. According to local folk reviews, some good people were selected to join the management team, such as the Tanal couple.

It seems that Diller did a good job during the time he and Stanter were leaving. He just led a group of left-behind women to build five more wooden houses, increasing the number of empty houses to 20.

The 20 vacant houses are obviously not enough for the population of more than 100, but the problem is not big. They can be squeezed for the time being, and some tents are added and they are quickly settled.

As for the candidates for the night watch, the old man brought some newly picked elites, and then Sol and Stet Diller were in charge of the three guards respectively, and Sol guarded the first shift.

Strictly speaking, the lord is actually unnecessary to participate in this kind of thing, but Thor does not have those problems. As the main force of the territory, ensuring the safety of the territory is the most important thing, especially in the first few days when the new members are gradually adapting.

These people were taken over by a semi-mandatory manner. Although they were not slaves, they came here with various moods, and then found that this place was not as beautiful as they had imagined, and various other ideas would inevitably arise.

So until these days before the territory is stabilized, strict supervision is necessary.

During the night watch, Sol chatted with the newly joined members, learned more about the original situation in the other two villages, and then walked around the settlement alone.

Nowadays, many buildings have been added to the settlement, and it looks pretty neat.

With sufficient manpower, the next step is to start mining stone. The settlement will no longer be a residential area, but a row of blacksmith workshops. If lucky, iron ore veins can be found in the mountains behind the settlement.

This area will become the edge of the territory in the future, and in Thor's vision, the territory will expand in a circular shape, and the center of the circle will gradually shift to the direction of the gray tree stumps. That was the first stage of the territory's initial plan.

There will be more things to do next. All wooden houses will gradually be eliminated and converted into barns or warehouses, and the houses of the residents will begin to develop into stone houses.

Stone houses are heat-resistant, decent, fire-resistant, and reassuring in terms of firmness. They are undoubtedly one of the happiness indexes that affect the mood of the people. It's just that winter is coming soon, and this kind of large-scale construction is obviously next year.

It will be harder to shrink in a wooden house this winter, but as long as there is sufficient food and firewood, it is not a problem.

In addition to housing, there are many functional workshops that can almost be started, such as blacksmith workshops, stonemason workshops and mills. In addition, latrines for stockpiling should be added, which can improve the environmental sanitation of the territory on the one hand.

When the manpower becomes surplus, roads will be laid soon, and when the territory has a basic appearance, merchants will be introduced to promote trade.

Territory construction has always been a long and cumbersome task, but Sol has clear directions in his mind. These directions come from some of the books he has been in contact with, as well as the experience of various places on the journey.

In fact, when he was still in Grayscreen, Thor had conceived it in his mind.

At that time, Waller enthusiastically proposed to develop on the foundation of the Brotherhood, and then become the largest power in the town, and Waller’s imagination is here. If Saul continues to say, the follow-up is nothing more than to overthrow the lord, plunder the power, and then occupy one side.

Saul didn't do this at the time because he was not interested, right behind those in the ranking of his life.

Compared to those secular gains, Thor yearns for the wild freedom in the wilderness, swinging the sword when he wants to, and going where he wants to go. Don't stay for profit, don't turn around for the world.

But the facts have proved that no one in this world can be truly free, we will eventually be bound by some trivial matters, until we die.

Even though the wandering is very low-key, Thor is still labelled evil by the Dark Council. After experiencing gains and losses and sadness, Saul had to give up what he loved and came to this borderland to do things that he didn't have much interest in from the beginning.

It's really meaningless to think about it just for someone who dares to stretch out his hand indiscriminately in the future, and he can fight back in a crazier way.

Just thinking about it, and soon the time for the night's vigil passed, and Stant came to take Thor's class.

After returning to the residence to wash briefly, take off your clothes and go to bed.

"Why aren't you sleeping? What are you waiting for?" Saul puts his arms around Beth, who has been busy with all kinds of things since he came back, and the two have no time for tenderness.

"I miss you so much, do you miss me?" Beth rubbed Thor's chest, like a cat waiting to be comforted.

"I haven't thought about it at all, I just want to sleep now, oh, that kind of person. And you are a little maid who doesn't want to do things all day, but just busy thinking about the master, is this really good ?" Thor teased.

"You hate it!" Beth quietly stretched out her hand and grabbed Thor's clone.

"Well, since you are expecting the master's punishment so much, let's be enlightened." Thor turned over and pierced Beth sweetly.

Lingering and beautiful, the night is boundless.

The next day, all the affairs of the territory began to proceed step by step.

At breakfast, Stant came closer, and Diller sat down at the table with food.

"The post I brought yesterday seems to have two thorns, and the words that I chatted with the leaders also faintly inflammatory that is not good for the territory, how to deal with it?" Stanter said at the table. One sentence.

"Don't worry about him, it's a good thing, wait for them to jump higher." Saul focused on the food in his hands.

Is this a good thing? Stant was a little puzzled, but turned his head to look at Diller, and found that the dwarf was sucking milk in such a wretched manner.

Saul knew roughly who Stant was talking about. It was a guy named Wyke. The one who was punched and fainted by himself at the entrance of Tide Village was a restless man.

It is said that he suddenly came to Tidal Village as an adventurer six months ago, and then settled down in this way, becoming one of the only two first-tiers in the village, a swordsman.

There is another male Tier 1 in Tide Village, but he is more kind, and he is a hunter in the village.

For an adventurer like Wyck, the Tannars are still more welcome. After all, Tide Village is just a small remote place, and a first-order can improve the overall defense power of the village.

However, after waiting for peace for a while, this guy Wick began to reveal his instincts, adding two more like-smelling followers, and squeezing out another first-tier in the village from time to time. Because of his strength, the simple villagers usually suffer from this guy's arrogance and bullying.

The Tanal couple also regretted this, but they couldn't say anything. After all, this guy Wyke has a good sense of measure. He will still move about what he should do for the village. As for some of the bad things about people, the Tanal couple can only open one eye and close one eye.

Saul, who secretly understood the situation, has been paying attention to him.

This kind of guy must be expelled from the territory, even if he does not want his life, he must be expelled.

Saul knew very well that his own takeover of Tide Village indirectly ended Wyck's domineering days in the village. On the surface, this guy didn't dare to say anything, but the grudge in his heart was definitely not less. This was an irreconcilable contradiction from the human level.

The transfer and integration of population has always been smooth, so Sol is waiting for a typical negative textbook, and people like White are very suitable. The biggest difference between him and ordinary civilians is that he will never be the kind of person who is willing to live with peace of mind.

After a brief meeting, the three of Thor scattered and returned to their respective affairs.

Now that Stant and Diller have been half separated from the trivial tasks such as training and logging and construction, they have selected some fairly reliable skilled hands to lead them as planned. They can also have extra energy to take care of more things.

After the new members adapt steadily, the corresponding management structure will also be established. There are also systems such as rewards and punishments, the naming of territories, the establishment of defense forces, and so on. There are many things.

But at the moment Sol is most concerned about and looking forward to the talent issue. After hearing the statistics from Beth, Sol was immediately happy to find a guy named Jeff, the only blacksmith in the realm.

The important use of the blacksmith in the early stage was not the swords and armor, but the smelting of farm tools in line with the surrounding soil conditions, as well as the various tools needed in the construction process.

Suddenly facing the lord’s questioning, Jeff was a little flattered. Sol was very friendly. After learning about the other’s general craftsmanship, Sol immediately arranged two leaders to accompany Jeff to the foot of the mountain to take a look. .

Ironing craftsmanship is only one aspect, and whether there are mineral veins around is a very important part. If so, you won't have to worry about the source of iron tools in your territory in the future, and if you don't, you will have to buy a large amount of ore from other territories in the future, which will undoubtedly be troublesome.
