A construction-crazed girl who had just maxed out her infrastructure game suddenly found herself pulled into another world with her max-level skills. She landed in a desolate, sparsely populated to...
Chapter 82
==================
The farm was well built, clean and large enough. Half of it was made into a cave underground, and a clean pool was dug, neither too shallow nor too deep, filled with water.
Lana had also been responsible for persuading the snake and turtle, and then led them out.
Now half of the farm is filled with snake turtles and their companions who have not yet woken up, and the other half is filled with big frogs who are quietly contributing their nutrition.
The two sides lived in peace and harmony.
The silt at the bottom of the pond was also dug out before the underground caves were completely filled with water and thrown into the pond as food for snakes and turtles.
Everyone had evacuated almost everything they could use. There were still some molten crystals left, and the magic crystals had been reserved for the immediate future. So there wasn't a shortage right now, but digging for them would be a bit more difficult.
Snake Turtle occasionally goes out to bask in the sun. According to him, he has never seen a desert. In his memory, there are vegetation all around him. Now there are vegetation too, but it is just a small patch of green on the farmland.
Lian Yun scooped up a handful of water from the pool; it was icy cool and very comfortable.
The water under the farm is drawn from an underground river in the same river channel, and has the same effect of restoring physical strength as the water in the cave.
Therefore, it is not difficult to raise large frogs, and their meat is still as tender and sweet as before.
Lina also discussed with Lian Yun that she didn't want to leave all the guardian birds in the warehouse. She planned to send three of them in turn to guard the farm. After all, there would be many people talking in the future, so she wanted to avoid people being curious.
Perhaps the guardian birds were used to this kind of work, and they were also familiar with the snakes and turtles. They seemed very happy when Lina mentioned it.
Lian Yun was relieved that everything was fine at the farm. As for the mining of ore and the exploration of mineral sources, they could only take action after the waterproof effect of the shark skin was tested.
At noon, Lian Yun and his men arrived at the mission hall early. The spacious hall was filled with a row of chairs and tables, making it look like a large job fair.
Today they are preparing to receive the first batch of immigrants from Quoge City.
They had set out from Kuoge City early and just arrived here. Lian Yun also sent someone to prepare lunch in advance. After all, they were guests of Bubu Town, so they had to have a meal before leaving whether they stayed or not.
Lanna and Buck came out together to greet the carriages from Kuoge City at the edge of Bubu Town.
I saw a large group of people in the distance, and I estimated there were more than thirty people.
The number of applicants who came at once was actually more than the current population of Bubu Town.
When the large group of people approached, the people standing in front of Bubu Town immediately recognized them. Wasn't the person leading the group riding a camel Fang Suo?
Nowadays, the remuneration in the Kuoge City Mission Hall is much more generous than before. With policies to protect the lives of residents, people are no longer forced to be frugal in all aspects of food, clothing and other expenses as before.
Fang Suo changed his clothes. His clothes and boots were all brand new, and not even the dust from the journey had touched his face.
She already had short hair and heroic sword-like eyebrows, and this outfit just highlighted her boldness.
She saw Lanner, Buck and others from afar. Now she was familiar with them and the alienation on her face was gone.
Lina waved enthusiastically from the side, and Fang Suo also waved at her subconsciously.
Lina glanced sweetly at the person next to her: "Sister Fang Suo is much more cheerful than before."
After saying that, he ran towards Fang Suo.
Fang Suo rolled over to the ground, opened his arms and caught Lina's bear hug.
After the large group of people entered the town, Lanner and Buck arranged for people to take them inside while listening to Fang Suo's introduction of the situation.
Since there were more than 30 people coming this time and there were also several large boxes behind them, they had to ask for clarification.
Fang Suo said that there were two sets of clothing and business tools for merchants who wanted to come here to do business.
"I told them what the adults said. If it doesn't work out, they won't charge for the journey. They came over happily. These two are quite famous in Quog City and can afford to open a branch."
If they succeed in Bubu Town, it will definitely bring a lot of positive information to Kuoge City.
Lanna took note and asked, "What do you think of these people?"
He was asking about the immigrants that Fang Suo had brought with him.
Fang Suo smiled and said, "I've screened them all. Compared to you guys, they don't have any extraordinary abilities, but they're not idle scoundrels. At least they all have decent intentions."
"I'll leave the rest for you and the adults to screen."
Buck nodded. "That's right, sister. The adults have their own way of judging people."
"Besides, in our small town, if you're not a bad person who has done a lot of evil, basically everyone will accept you."
Even if they were bad guys, like the robber orcs before, they didn't look good on them, but Lian Yun just stayed with them.
It was even recruited through trickery in the first place.
But after so much time has passed, everyone has discovered that they do have their own advantages.
Hardworking, patient and willing to work.
In the past, everyone thought the orcs were difficult to get along with, and deep down, they probably thought so too. But after spending time with them, they discovered that not only were they not good at talking, but they also became wary even when they received small acts of kindness like food or water.
I haven't done anything wrong in all these days.
Even Garin and Xibo, who often traveled and had seen the world, were greatly impressed.
Buck also heard from them that Luo had made some time-saving and labor-saving suggestions when surveying the terrain in the quarry. They were happy to accept them and report to Buck.
Once the probation period is over, they may have to apply for town residency.
"You don't know, as soon as the notice and conditions were posted, many people rushed over to join in the fun. After all, the adults said that even if they couldn't stay, they wouldn't charge for round-trip travel. They just regarded it as a free tour to see what Bubu Town, where non-toxic meat can be raised and the legendary base of the Sun and Moon Sect, looks like. Many of them still want to get away with it." Fang Suo smiled helplessly.
"Want to come and visit? That may take some time." Lanna said.
Fang Suo nodded thoughtfully. "I was just about to ask. Before leaving, Pei Si asked me to ask. If people from Quoge City want to come and visit, is it feasible now?"
Lian Yun had already received the message from Pei Si, so Lan Na also received Lian Yun's reply in advance. He answered according to Lian Yun's thoughts: "Now Bubu Town has taken shape and bid farewell to its previous shabby appearance, but it is still not complete in all aspects."
Lana pointed to the fields busy with harvesting. "For example, the grain is only enough for our large group right now. Although the main crops are yielding well, even if we plant them non-stop, it'll take some time for them to stabilize. The diversity of vegetables grown here is indeed greater than in Kuoge City, but we haven't cultivated the first batch yet, and we don't know when we'll be able to achieve stable production."
Not to mention other aspects, the commercial street is now empty. Even if these two businesses are settled, it is still far less lively than Kuoge City.
There aren't any special buildings or entertainment facilities. I'm afraid they'll be more disappointed than surprised when they come.
"Your Excellency has thought about this much." Fang Suo nodded. "It seems that Your Excellency has even more long-term calculations. I'll tell Pei Si when I get back."
Finally, she pointed towards the farm, a smile on her face: "It's not that there aren't some iconic ones. For example, this one, there's no other like it on the entire continent."
"Frog farming, you guys can figure it out."
Buck's indifferent expression flickered with a smile. "There's also fish. This is the first time we in the desert have eaten fish. I'll grill a few for you later."
Fang Suo was genuinely surprised: "That's great."
She was not only surprised that there were fish in the desert, a fish she had barely eaten in all these years, but she also felt relieved when she thought about the river she had just seen.
And Buck, the boy who spoke at the beginning, is now chatting and laughing freely.
Fang Suo's eyes scanned back and forth between Lanner and Buck, and he finally noticed something was wrong: "Shouldn't Lanner stay with the adults?"
Buck and Lana happened to be handling matters separately, one civil and one military, and this was the first time that both of them came to ask her about the situation.
Do adults take it so seriously?
The two men, one tall and one short, with identical cold faces, usually stood apart. She didn't notice it, but now, facing two icebergs...
"I'm injured, and my parents don't allow me to do too much physical work, so I came along to ask."
Injured? He could be injured?
As if seeing her confusion, Lana explained a few words and soon they arrived at the mission hall.
The task hall was already full of people, and some were still standing. Lian Yun opened all five windows, and the five business elves worked at full capacity, writing down the information of the visitors.
Including name, gender, expertise, previous jobs...
Lian Yun was behind five windows checking the documents handed over to him.
Fiona originally came to watch the fun, but was dragged by Gerry to help restore order.
Although there were many people, everything was in good order under the arrangement of a few people.
Lian Yun took the information calmly and thought about it himself first. After settling these people, he would discuss it with Lanagri and the others.
It was just recording data, which didn't take much time. Five windows worked at the same time, and it was finished before the sun even moved.
Jamie led the recorded group to the tavern. Abe had already prepared the ingredients and estimated that they had already started cooking.
On the way, they met some residents who were harvesting wheat and taking a break at noon. The residents were in a hurry, but when they saw them, they slowed down and spoke to them with a smile.
Everyone also learned that what they harvested was said to be a new crop, and it tasted much better than parsnips.
However, after asking again, they found out that it would take more than ten days before they could eat it. Everyone couldn't help but sigh in disappointment.
Bubu Town brought a lot of delicious food to Kuoge City, which was one of the main reasons that attracted them.
Lian Yun sat in the task hall, folding his arms, waiting for Lana and the others, while staring blankly at the new tasks refreshed in the task bar.
[Too Many People, Too Many Houses (Part 3) (In Progress): Bubu Town is gradually growing, and I'm sure the adults are feeling overwhelmed! Now that the adults already have a social town, it seems that doubling the town's population shouldn't be a problem.]
