Chapter 068. The arrival of Manid
The desert environment is harsh, not suitable for living and thriving, most often due to the high sun and temperature.
Looking at the special effect of the solar disk that can regulate the temperature, Kant finally understood why the Lost City, in the middle of the hot and barren Naren Desert, could become the legendary golden holy city.
"But the enveloping area of the special effects is 500 square meters..."
Looking at the introduction on the retina, Kant's brow furrowed slightly.
The current village of "Dehrim" has an overall area of 1,000 square meters of buildings alone, not counting the spring water, 7.5 acres of reclaimed wheat fields, and 2 acres of date palm forests.
This means that the enveloping range of the solar disk can only be maintained in the vicinity of the Consulate.
"The range is too small."
Kant's brow furrowed, which was not what he thought.
If the special effects of the solar disc can envelop the entire sentry oasis and envelop the entire village of "Dehrim", then the tempered sunlight and temperature will definitely make a huge difference in the oasis.
At least don't worry about the possibility that if the wheat seedlings appear, they will be burned to death.
γDing... System Prompt]
[The strange objects currently owned are displayed as incomplete and damaged, and they can be repaired, and the strange objects will play a better and more special effect effect after they are complete.] Note: Please explore the repair method by yourself. γ
As if perceiving Kant's depression, the system gives a hint.
However, this is useless.
just told Kant how to solve it, but the specific solution was not clearly stated at all, and directly left the words "please explore the repair method by yourself", which completely made Kant blacken his eyes.
"It's really tingling."
Kant couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head helplessly.
But it's better than nothing.
Looking at the faint golden streamer at his feet, the sun disk is absorbing the sunlight coming in from the window, and the originally hot temperature in the room has become much cooler unconsciously.
It's still hot, but it's not as hot as it used to be.
It's still afternoon.
The temperature in the Narun Desert is at its highest in the middle of the day.
Although the temperature of up to 70 Β°C is only less than half an hour, as long as there are no protective measures, ordinary people can suffer from heat stroke and dehydration in this half an hour, and fall miserably in the desert, forming a dried corpse in the shortest possible time.
The title of civilized desert is not for nothing.
Kant is here, and naturally has a deep understanding.
"I'll be able to sleep well in the future." With a helpless wry smile in his heart, Kant comforted himself.
At least you won't be woken up by the heat from a nap and frozen at night.
Pinching his eyebrows, Kant continued to pour himself a glass of water on the table, moistening his mouth and throat, and the list of data in his retina pulled down, and the dialog box showed a new list of gift packages.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Desert Bandit Camp: Military Structure. An earth-and-stone building upgraded from a stronghold. Recruit 10 Desert Bandits every 7 days. Note: Requires "Desert Bandit Stronghold." γ
[Training ground: military building. The land is compacted, and the stone squares are paved. Allows senior units to train low-level units, adding a small amount of experience to low-level units. γ
[Stone city wall: military building. The entire wall is made of stone blocks, and the whole is 5 meters high and 2 meters wide. It comes with one solid wooden gate. At present, the entire village can be covered, and the price of the excess part of the building is 10 dinars per metre. γ
[Sugar Workshop: Civil Building. A cottage made of wood with all the tools inside. Farmers are stationed in it, and the raw materials consumed can be used to make various types of sugars. Currently available: Date sugar. γ
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
These are buildings.
Items from the 4 building packs issued by Immanuel Kant.
3 types of military buildings, 1 type of civilian buildings.
After checking the introduction, Kant nodded secretly: "It is in line with the current situation." β
The Desert Bandit Camp is an upgraded version of the stronghold, and the most notable feature is the number of recruits, which has been reduced from 1 to 10 per week, greatly increasing the size of the Desert Bandits.
After having a training ground, the training of the senior arms to the lower branches can also promote the improvement of the quality of the troops.
"As for the stone walls, there is finally a means of defense."
Kant had a slight smile on his face.
Although it is only a small stone wall with a height of 5 meters and a width of 2 meters, it is also a city wall.
As long as the entire "Dehrim" is built and there are no siege weapons, then Kant and his troops will be invincible in the sentry oasis.
You know, there is no water source around the sentry oasis.
The nearest source of water is the well of the Gnoll tribe, two days away.
If the enemy can't fight quickly in the shortest possible time and directly capture Kant's village in one go, then if you want to play a long-term siege with Kant, don't even think about it, and the final outcome is nothing but death from thirst, and it is estimated that you will be sunburned to death.
"However, the walls are not in a hurry."
Kant thought about it carefully and made his own arrangements.
Now his enemies are not only the Greymane Kingdom, but also the nobles in the Lion Duchy.
When his caravan appears in the Duchy of Lion, the news of the salt abundance in the Sentry Oasis will spread throughout the human nations, and countless merchants and speculators, as well as bandits of all kinds, will appear here.
Kant would not have been naΓ―ve enough to think that such a valuable salt trade would not be coveted.
This is the world where the big fist represents who's right!
Therefore, he needed to build the walls wisely, to envelop the village of "Dehrim" under the protection of the walls, and also to ensure that the development of the village would not be dragged down and constrained by the construction of the walls.
After all, while the city wall protects, it also divides the area.
Moreover, the enemy had not yet arrived, so Kant did not intend to rush to repair the walls.
Development is the last word.
On the retina, Kant looked at the last building, his eyes lit up.
"Sugar workshop?"
He whispered the name, his eyes thoughtful.
In this world, luxury goods are not only spices and refined white salt, but also fine sugar, which is also a good thing that nobles and great merchants flock to and spend silver coins to buy.
Snow-like sugar, sometimes equivalent to spices, is more valuable than white salt.
Most of the sugar in the Lion Principality is purchased from elves, and the price is equally amazing, and it is not something that ordinary people, small nobles, and little knights can eat.
The only things that can be replenished with sugar are apples that grow in the woods, or berries that grow in the bushes.
These things, in fact, are not separated from food, and are not sugar in the true sense of the word.
"Date sugar, it seems to be interesting."
Kant licked the corners of his mouth.
Dates contain a lot of sugar, and they are indeed a choice that can be used to make sugar.
He himself understands that as long as the dates are dried and ground into powder, they are the most basic date sugar, and if honey can be added and boiled a little, it can even be made into sweet sugar cubes, which taste quite delicious.
Thinking that there are still a lot of dried dates in the warehouse, Kant smiled at the corner of his mouth.
Suddenly, he discovered that he could trade sugar in addition to the salt trade.
The Duchy of Lion is a dumping ground for high-class products, after all, Kant knows that the principality is mostly plains and hills, and does not produce salt and sugar, and the most important thing is that this world has no concept of dumping.
Whoever has a cheap product will be popular and sell well.
It's a simple truth.
As for the leader of the caravan, Kant now has a candidate.
Fatis was an excellent commander of the Swadia forces, but for commercial activities, he could not keep up with this professional merchant from the traditional merchant family of the Nord kingdom, called Manid.
The cards in my brain turned into golden light and shattered.
And just behind the sand dunes not far from the sentry oasis, a figure riding a heavy horse and carrying a package appeared there.
Soon, the watchtower spotted him.
Five Salander riders rode over, and after a brief exchange, they brought it back.
Seeing that Manid and the 5 Salander riders were riding their horses slowly, Kant also came to the window with a glass of water, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, the leader of his caravan, isn't this coming.
"Cheer up!"
Fatis's voice rang out, and he was still arranging the patrol work of the troops below.
Kant opened his mouth and said to him, "Fatis, greet Manid, I think you should know him." β
"Manid? Oh, that handsome businessman? β
Fatis was slightly stunned, raised his head to look at Kant, and nodded: "Of course, I know him, and I used to work with him in Kulau to beat a few troublesome drunkards. β
"As you can tell, you're doing a good job."
Kant took a sip of water, nodded and smiled, "From now on, he will be the leader of our caravan." β
In the continent of Calradia, Fatis and Manid have a good relationship, both belong to the heroes who refuse to rob civilians and rob caravans, not to mention that one is from a noble family, the other is from a merchant family, and they also have a common language in ordinary times.
