Over the next week, Lin Han took the time to raid and destroy all the bandit and player villages within a ten-kilometer radius of Hulu Mountain.
Those players who wanted to develop themselves quietly did not know what was happening when disaster struck and the village turned into ruins overnight.
The entire Hulu Mountain area was in chaos, but soon it became quiet.
Within a radius of ten kilometers, there was only one player village, Hanjiang Village, left. The player village was completely destroyed, and the system village became the experience chicken raised by Lin Han.
The looted supplies and population allowed Hanjiang Village to grow rapidly. In addition, by taking in passing refugees, the village's population quickly grew from more than 2,000 to more than 6,000.
The stronghold’s guard force reached more than 2,500 people, more than doubling its size.
When the main camp of Changhe Studio was destroyed, in addition to six fine weapons of heroes, there was also a [low-level stable building blueprint], various supplies, 140,000 five-zhu coins, and more than 5,000 stones of grain.
By plundering a medium-sized stronghold growing in Hulu Mountain, Lin Han obtained a [Low-level Tavern Construction Blueprint] and a [Low-level City Wall Construction Blueprint], 40 taels of gold, 200 taels of silver, more than 300,000 five-zhu, and 8,000 dan of grain.
It can be described as a wave of fat.
【Low-level tavern construction drawings】
Attribute: Low-level building
Level: 0
Function: After completion, the attraction to talents increases by 10%. The higher the level, the greater the attraction to talents. The attributes of strangers can be temporarily seen clearly in the tavern.
[Low-level city wall construction drawings]
Attribute: Low-level fortifications
Level: 0
Function: After completion, it will increase the soldiers' combat effectiveness by 20% and the defense by 10,000. For every level up, the defense will increase by 1,000.
Two buildings, pretty good.
The village was expanding, and he needed talented people to manage it, so the tavern came at the right time.
"Old Wood, come here."
Lin Han found the bandit craftsman Lao Mu.
After Lin Han practiced the Casting Heaven Palace, the talents of the common people in the entire village were improved to varying degrees.
Lao Mu is now an elite craftsman. The fortifications he builds have defensive bonuses and can also save material resources. In the early stages of the game, this is an extremely rare talent.
"grown ups."
Old Wood bowed respectfully in front of Lin Han.
"I have two architectural drawings here. Please help me build them." Lin Han handed the two drawings to Lao Mu.
"Sir, building this tavern requires ten cubic meters of wood, ten cubic meters of stone, a thousand pounds of iron ore, ten workers, and twenty taels of silver. Building the city wall requires twenty cubic meters of wood, eighty cubic meters of stone, four thousand pounds of iron ore, one hundred workers, and fifty taels of gold. With sufficient manpower and funds, it can be completed within five days."
Lao Mu gave Lin Han some building materials and a price.
The tavern was fine, as it didn't have much capital. But when Lin Han heard that it would take fifty taels of gold to build the city wall, his eyes almost popped out.
Now all the wealth of the stronghold, including the money he looted, adds up to only 140 taels of gold, and a low-level city wall requires 50 taels of gold.
Damn it.
The defensive power of the city wall is definitely better than the high wall of the village, and it also has a combat power bonus.
"I've got it. Go to the village chief to get all the necessary materials. Build the city wall as quickly as possible." Lin Han gritted his teeth and decided.
"Okay, sir." Old Wood left happily.
He had to build it for the safety of the village.
Taverns have the potential to attract talent and are inexpensive to build, so they are a necessity. City walls can greatly increase the security of the village, which is also necessary.
Seeing the financial balance of the village, Lin Han's heart was bleeding.
He worked so hard for so long, most of the day was wasted. If it weren't for the trouble in transporting the supplies, he would have wanted to sell the supplies for money.
He paid attention to the current proportion of gold coins in offline transactions.
Now that the game has just started, the money in the game is particularly precious. One tael of gold in the game is exchanged for one thousand real Chinese currency, which means that a city wall cost him fifty thousand.
What about the advanced city walls in the future? He dared not imagine.
This is a money-burning game. Even if he doesn't see the money, he still feels the pain and has to find a way to make more money.
"Sir, there is someone outside the village who wants to see you." A bandit ran in to report.
…
Yang Tianyun looked around at the neatly arranged houses and the supplies ready for construction at the high walls of the village, his eyes filled with envy.
Especially when he saw the bandits training in the training ground, he felt a chill in his heart.
According to his preliminary calculations, there are about three thousand bandits here, and the quality of their weapons is ordinary, a grade better than their inferior weapons.
This village has talented craftsmen.
This is the true strength of Hanjiang Village.
He was a little envious of these bandit players.
Due to the game setting, the lord player who chooses to build a village with refugees needs to pay taxes according to the tax rate of the Eastern Han Dynasty court.
In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, various natural disasters, man-made disasters and high taxes were the main culprits that oppressed civilians and led to uprisings. As lord players, they have a deep understanding of this after entering the game.
Land rent, head tax, and corvee labor.
The head tax is a poll tax that starts at one year old. As long as the civilians in the village are one year old, they must start paying taxes. As lord players, in order to grow and attract refugees, they promise low taxes, and the gaps are filled by their lord players.
One third of the daily income was paid as taxes, and people had to contribute to the conscription of soldiers for the Eastern Han Dynasty.
As village lords, the number of militia in a village cannot exceed 500, which greatly restricts their development.
Due to restrictions, studio members all work together to build villages, and then use the advantages of multiple villages to increase militias, thereby gaining military advantages.
Only by continuously increasing official positions and military ranks, or building towns, can more soldiers be recruited.
But the money for buying an official position in the late Eastern Han Dynasty was really ridiculously expensive, and the resources and money for a village to upgrade to a town were even more ridiculously expensive.
