Alien High Lord

After that, Anna and Ying had a good talk with Li Fan in person.

Under Anna and Ying's persuasion, Li Fan finally came to his senses.

After awakening, Li Fan sighed immediately: "The phrase 'Gentle Township Hero Tomb' is fart, and it obviously works for a bear like him."

Complaining, Li Fan finally pulled himself together. He pulled himself together, found Alicia, and was about to ask him what was so urgent that he needed to solve it.

Chapter 417 Leave the Kidney to...

"Originally, the valley had a population of 2630. Recently, 1000 orc refugees came from the orc empire, and 1400 human refugees from the human empire. After that, Luke sent 1000 dwarves, and Karen, who was a businessman, bought them back. 1000 human slaves, so our territory now has a population of 7000."

"In addition, in the next time, Luke will continue to send 4000 dwarves. After Karen and others return, they will continue to bring back 1000 human slaves. At that time, the population of our territory will be It can break through 1 and reach 1 people."

In the study, Alicia reported the things in the valley to Li Fan with a smile on her face.

Li Fan's recovery made her feel that their territory could still be saved.

Although Li Fan felt offended, in view of the absurdity of the past few days, he still chose to shut up and not mention it.

"1 people? There are 2 people more than estimated."

Li Fan said, and then began to think about the impact of population expansion.

With such a large population, the food consumed is naturally extremely astonishing, especially with the addition of a big black bear recently.

Fortunately, some time ago, a large amount of food had been accumulated in the territory, which according to Alicia's records was enough to support the territory for a period of time.

"It's just that there will be a big trouble soon." Alicia said seriously at this time.

"Trouble?" Li Fan asked worriedly: "What trouble? The year of God's punishment will come again?"

If the Year of God's Punishment comes again, Li Fan will indeed feel a headache. After all, this time is different from before. There were only a few hundred people before, so it is not difficult to arrange. Now there are nearly ten thousand people in the territory.

Alicia shook her head at this time and said: "The appearance of the Year of God's Retribution will only be known if the church announces it, but our trouble is very similar to the Year of God's Retribution, that is, winter will come in a few months. gone."

Li Fan asked a little puzzled: "Why is it troublesome in winter?"

Alicia obviously didn't expect Li Fan to ask such a question, and immediately said: "Don't you know? You can't grow food in winter, and you can't even grow food in the period close to winter. Although this winter is not a year of punishment, But even in ordinary winter, there are about 5 months when we can’t grow food, so what should we do with the food shortage in our territory? This winter is a big test for our territory.”

Only then did Li Fan know why Alicia was so anxious to find him.

Li Fan immediately grinned and said, "Who said you can't grow food in winter?"

As Li Fan said, he drew the design of the greenhouse on paper.

Alicia looked at the piece of paper and asked suspiciously, "Is this a glass-covered room?"

Li Fan nodded and said: "Yes, this kind of house is called a greenhouse. With it, you can grow vegetables and food in winter, and the materials needed to build a greenhouse are not auxiliary. You only need a little cement, a lot of glass and steel. That's it."

Among them, steel can be replaced by wood, and the trouble is only glass. After all, what the greenhouse needs is transparent glass.

Fortunately, the firing of glass has been studied in the territory for a long time.

Now as long as there is sand, the dwarves can burn countless pieces of transparent glass.

The transparent glass that is regarded as a treasure outside is worthless in their territory.

Therefore, it is not a problem at all to build a greenhouse of tens of thousands of acres with transparent glass.

……

Alicia had some doubts about the function of this greenhouse, and asked, "Is this kind of greenhouse really useful?"

"It's definitely useful. If you don't believe me, ask Big Eyes and Big Ears to help you build a few, and you'll know if you try it." Li Fan swore.

Seeing this, Alicia didn't say anything more.

She continued to mention other problems in the territory: "Although food can be grown in winter, 3 mu of land is still not enough for us, and the young master also knows that the high frequency of land planting will lead to a decrease in land production." , then we will have less and less food to harvest.”

Then, Alicia continued with a complaining tone: "Young master, you can absorb the population without limit, and you have to exchange food for so many things, 'sinner' dwarves, special metals, materials for purification potions, magic cores , Warcraft cubs, these all need food, and the output of 3 mu of land is definitely not enough to support our consumption."

Li Fan also sighed when he heard this.

Absorbing people is the basis for him to become stronger. He will never give up on this matter, but he has no way to explain it.

Li Fan can only find a way to solve the problem of food shortage.

In fact, Li Fan has already thought of two ways.

The first method: exchange [magic crops] with bond value.

This method is simple and effective.

[Level 1 Demonized Potatoes] and [Level 1 Demonized Sweet Potatoes] only need half a month and one month to mature respectively.

It can allow the territory to obtain a large amount of food in a short period of time.

The disadvantage is that it consumes more bond value.

Li Fan glanced at his remaining bond value.

After exchanging [Exquisite Magic] and [Exquisite Fighting Qi], he still had 1 bond points left, but after signing in during this period, he now has 5 bond points.

In addition, he can get 2500 bond points by signing in every day.

After all 1 people have entered the territory and integrated into the territory, maybe he can get 2 bond points by signing in every day.

These fetters are all used to exchange for [level 1 magic crops], which can be exchanged for 700 acres of [magic crops] seedlings in one day, which can survive more than 1 million catties of food within a month.

Looking at it this way, using this method, it is still possible to make the territory survive this winter.

However, this approach has two huge disadvantages.

1: This method will prevent Li Fan from accumulating bonds.

When upgrading the system and exchanging [Section [-] Different Racial Growth Gymnastics], these products require a lot of bond points.

Using all the bond points on food is contrary to his purpose of accumulating population.

2: With this crazy planting method, the fertility of the field will be consumed in large quantities, and the situation of barrenness and yield reduction of the field will be serious, and even the situation of "death" of the field may appear.

By that time, the food shortage will be even more serious.

……

Therefore, Li Fan is more inclined to the second method.

At this moment, Li Fan turned his gaze to the mouth of the valley.

His second method is: open up territory.

When new territories are opened up, there will be places to reclaim new fields, thus solving the food problem.

In addition to this, there is another benefit.

Although the valley is big, there is a limit after all. Tens of thousands of people can live there. However, according to the current population expansion rate of the territory, it is estimated that the entire valley will be full of people in a short time.

Opening up the territory in advance can also prevent the problem of overcrowding.

It can be said that opening up territory is a good way to kill two birds with one stone.

Li Fan immediately asked Alicia to call everyone to discuss the matter.

……

In the study room, everyone who was summoned suddenly did not speak, but looked at Li Fan with strange expressions.

Although no one publicized Li Fan's relationship with Anna and Ying, Li Fan has been so depraved these days that everyone in the valley knows about it.

At this time, everyone couldn't help but look at Li Fan with ridicule.

Aoki, Bai Qi, and the four old guys with big eyes and big ears even said something to Li Fan with emotion.

"It's nice to be young, but young people need to know how to control themselves!"

As soon as the words came out, most of the people present laughed out loud.

Even if Li Fan's skin is thick enough, he still wants to give these four old guys a pair of panda eyes at this time.

Fortunately, Anna and Ying did not participate in this meeting, otherwise Li Fan would not be able to sleep in their bed for several days after being teased like this.

The only person present who didn't make a joke of Li Fan was iron-headed.

However, seeing Tietou's appearance at this time, Li Fan was startled instead.

It's just that I haven't seen each other for ten days. The iron head, who was originally as strong as an iron tower, has lost a lot of weight at this time, and his face looks haggard.

After Li Fan asked, he learned from the people around him that Xue Ji had been looking for Tietou more frequently recently.

Li Fan was a little annoyed at first, but Tietou himself smiled and said to him: "Master, it's...it's okay, it's worth the hard work for my old cow."

As he said that, the idiot Tietou gave him a 'you understand' expression.

Li Fan was also speechless for a while, and could only helplessly say to Hui Yu: "Some of the magical beasts raised in captivity should have grown up, kill some, remember to leave the kidneys for Tie Tou...and me."

After finishing speaking, Li Fan secretly touched his aching waist, then took out a map and started today's business.

Everyone looked at the map, and then realized that it was a map of the sinful forest.

Li Fan pointed to the location of their territory on the map, and said: "This valley is our territory. There are mountains on three sides, and the only exit is guarded by a city gate. This excellent terrain has made our territory never invaded." We have been attacked by monsters, but there is a large dense forest at the entrance of the valley, and there must be some monsters hidden in the forest, which has caused all our production to stay in the valley."

Li Fan said loudly at this time: "Therefore, I plan to open up new territories."

Chapter 418 Opening Up the Territory

In the study, Li Fan showed a serious expression, and said to everyone: "Recently, the population in the territory has been expanding rapidly, and the number of fields is not enough at all. It is undoubtedly very important to reclaim such a good area in the valley as fields. Stupid behavior, so I plan to open up the territory, and open up this large dense forest outside the valley into a new territory."

Li Fan said, with the valley as the center, draw a semicircle in the dense forest, the area of ​​which is about ten times that of the valley, which is nearly a thousand square kilometers.

Li Fan pointed to this area and said, "I plan to develop all these places into our territory."

Everyone was a little surprised by Li Fan's plan, but they could understand it.

However, there are still some problems with this plan.

Alicia immediately asked: "Master, how should we defend against the attack of monsters after we open up the territory?"

Li Fan said without hesitation: "Build the city wall."

If other forces in the Magic Continent wanted to build such a large city wall, it would probably take several years or even ten years.

But Li Fan and the others have the sharp weapon of cement, coupled with the technology of the dwarves, the material of steel bars, and Hui Yu's [Tough Potion].

With the blessing of so many 'artifacts', it is not only easy to build the city wall, but the quality of the city wall will also be astonishingly high.

Everyone present knew this, so they all nodded.

Alicia continued to ask at this moment: "What does the young master plan to use this area for?"

Once it is decided to implement this plan, the human and financial resources consumed cannot be a small number. Alicia manages the resources in the territory, so naturally she has to ask clearly.

Li Fan told his plan.

In his plan, he wants to build the valley into an inner city to focus on life and entertainment, and even make the valley a real paradise.

As for the newly built outer city, part of it is used to live in the newly joined citizens. In the event of a war, these citizens can also quickly enter the inner city to escape.

As for the other part, it is reclaimed into fields, breeding poultry, livestock and monsters, and it is built into factories.

With an outer city of nearly a thousand square kilometers, even if there are a million people living there, there is no problem, and the area is completely sufficient.

There is another benefit to this plan.

According to the previous rules, after the newcomers joined the valley, they had to work during the afternoon military training.

But recently, there is no way to continue to cultivate fields in the valley, so there are not many things for the leaders in military training to do.

Well now, Li Fan can ask them to help build the city wall. After the city wall is built, let him go to the outer city to reclaim new fields.

In this way, whether it is this batch of leaders or the next batch of leaders, there are things to do.

Avoid the waste of manpower.

……

There is nothing wrong with Li Fan's plan, at most, some details still need to be dealt with.

After discussing with everyone for a day, a perfect plan was born.

First, 300 soldiers went to clean up the monsters in the dense forest.

Then everyone dispatched to clear out the planned city wall area first.

The dwarves then conducted an investigation and confirmed that it was suitable for building a city wall.
