After Ye Chen finished speaking, he opened the attributes of the Green Shade Lord's Mansion.
Green Shade Lord's Mansion (Tier 1)
Upgrade materials required: Wood*, Stone*2000, Iron Ore*1 ton, Tier 2 Magic Crystal*, Various Green Plants*3000
Area occupied: 200 square meters; Number of gem inlay holes: 0/10
Attribute Bonus 1: Increases territory area by 10% (maximum 100 acres)
Attribute Bonus 2: Increases plant growth speed within the territory by 5%.
Attribute Bonus 3: Increases the speed of soil quality improvement within the territory by 5%.
With the successful construction of the Green Shade Lord's Mansion, the growth rate of plants throughout the territory has accelerated to some extent, and the soil in the territory has also been significantly improved.
The most obvious change is that the extra land around the outer edge of Ye Chen's territory has significantly expanded his territory's area.
The area has expanded directly from about 50 mu to 55 mu. It may not seem like much, but it is about half the size of a football field, more than enough to house three or five mountain gods.
"The Green Shade Lord's Mansion can be upgraded?" Upon seeing the attributes of the Green Shade Lord's Mansion, the fat man exclaimed in surprise. An upgraded lord's mansion means that it can be used for a long time.
“Most rare lord mansions can be upgraded, but for a Tier 1 lord mansion, upgrading twice to reach Tier 3 is already the limit. For Tier 4 lord mansion blueprints, we still need to find them again,” Ye Chen nodded and said.
This is also why rare lord mansions are valuable. With just a small amount of resources, they can be upgraded directly from Tier 1 to Tier 3, which saves the lord a lot of resources and eliminates the hassle of obtaining blueprints for higher-tier lord mansions.
"That's true, I'm so envious~~~" The fat man nodded, then said with a look of envy.
"What are you envious of? Come on, let's go inside and take a look!" Ye Chen smiled and led the fat man and many of his relatives into the lord's mansion.
The lord's manor wasn't large, so it was impossible for so many people to walk in all at once, but the lighting inside was quite good, and it didn't feel dim.
Moreover, the air is filled with a faint fragrance of flowers and herbs, which is refreshing and pleasant.
"A 200-square-meter lord's mansion, with a 100-square-meter hall, that's exactly right!" Upon entering the lord's mansion, the first thing you see is a spacious hall.
Apart from the window at the top and the small door at the back, the entire hall was completely empty.
"My lord, don't worry, we'll have a batch of furniture made for you soon! We'll make sure your manor is well-furnished." Lu Ban and Mo Di said, seeing the empty hall.
"Thank you both very much. Just tell Ye Ling what materials you need!" Ye Chen replied with a smile, not rejecting the relatives' goodwill.
Passing through the main hall, there is a small courtyard behind it, with short corridors on both sides, covered with vines hanging down.
Beyond the courtyard was a small house, which, barring any unforeseen circumstances, would be Ye Chen's future residence.
"Two hundred square meters is a very reasonable use of space! A 100-square-meter living room, a 40-square-meter yard, plus a 60-square-meter house, this house should be bigger than the house you rent on Earth, right?" the fat man joked with a smile.
"Okay!" Ye Chen nodded.
He was an orphan on Earth, having come from an orphanage, and he had to rely entirely on himself to make a living.
If it weren't for having an older sister who also came from an orphanage, I probably wouldn't have been able to afford even a 50-square-meter two-bedroom apartment and would have had to sleep on the streets.
The house in the backyard of this lord's mansion is now larger than his residence on Earth.
"Hey! Once you become a full-fledged lord and return to Blue Star, upgrade this lord's mansion. Your living space will be huge. I remember a Tier 2 lord's mansion has a floor area of 1,000 square meters, right?" the fat man said with a smile.
The two didn't dwell on the topic too much, and instead went into Ye Chen's room.
The two-bedroom, one-living room, one-bathroom apartment, although not very spacious, has a reasonable layout, and the wooden structure makes it very comfortable to live in.
However, just like the main hall, this room was completely empty; everything had to be crafted by Lu Ban and Mo Di.
After the excitement of building the lord's mansion subsided, everyone left one after another. The fat man returned to his territory, while Ye Chen went to the hall, looked at the five round holes on the wall, took out an earth-yellow bead, and slowly put it in.
Suddenly, something seemed to change across the entire territory.
The land beneath their feet became more moist and fertile. New soil even formed in some of the pits and hollows that had been dug. Small mounds of earth appeared in some unnoticed corners and slowly rose. As the territory expanded, it might one day become a hill or even a mountain.
"The changes brought to the territory by the intermediate-grade earth elemental spirit orb are indeed enormous!" Looking at the earth elemental spirit orb embedded in the wall, Ye Chen could already feel the changes in the entire territory.
Intermediate Earth Spirit Orb: Increases soil improvement speed within the territory by 100%, with a high probability of altering the landscape, affecting a maximum area of 2000 acres.
This is the effect of the intermediate-level Earth Spirit Orb. Even though it has not yet formed a true Five Elements Cycle Formation, it is already enough to have a huge impact on the territory.
“A territory needs at least 100 acres to place one spirit pearl, but with the Lord’s Mansion, even if the territory is less than 100 acres, I can place 10 spirit pearls directly. The development speed of the territory can undoubtedly be accelerated a lot!” Ye Chen thought to himself as he looked at the remaining 4 round holes on the wall.
These are the slots for placing spirit orbs. There are five in the main hall and five in his room, making a total of ten. Currently, only one mid-grade earth spirit orb has been placed inside.
After a moment's hesitation, Ye Chen took out another low-grade water spirit bead and placed it into another round hole.
Suddenly, Ye Chen seemed to feel moisture rising in the previously dry territory, and the humidity in the entire territory was much higher.
Low-level Water Spirit Orb: Can generate up to 100 million cubic meters of water per day within the territory, with a small probability of altering the terrain, and a maximum impact range of 500 acres.
"100 million cubic meters per day is enough for a 0th-tier lord, but the difference between low-grade and mid-grade is really huge!" Ye Chen couldn't help but sigh when he saw the attributes of the low-grade water spirit orb.
Putting aside everything else, just in terms of the range of influence, the intermediate-level earth spirit orb is already four times that of the low-level water spirit orb.
Fortunately, the low-level water spirit orbs are still sufficient for now, so there's no rush to replace them.
"Let's leave the remaining holes for now. Replacing the spirit orb might damage the holes, but there's no rush. Let's leave it like this!" Ye Chen thought for a moment, then turned and walked out of the lord's mansion without filling in the remaining holes.
