Necromancer: Becoming a God from a Lord

As the evil orcs evacuated from the valley area stopped trying to counterattack the outpost fortress fortress for a long time.

The war situation instantly eased, and Pierce also began to train reserve troops directly in the valley outpost area according to Harvey's previous rotation garrison training plan.

Occasionally, there will be some tentative small-scale battles with the evil orc sentinels, which can be regarded as daily practical exercises for soldiers.

Asdaren returned to the territory successfully and began to cooperate with Harvey in related affairs of the Magical Military Factory, freeing Reiner and devote himself to the territory's grain production and infrastructure work.

The northern border has officially entered the hot summer season. A batch of crops planted in early spring have just been harvested. The poultry and livestock raised have also entered the stage of breeding and laying eggs in the warm weather. The entire territory is showing a prosperous scene.

In just half a year, Harvey's territory's population has surged to nearly 8,000 people.

Most of the leaders received a job that could support themselves and their families, thanks to Harvey's vast and never-reclaimed territory and extremely abundant materials.

The farms on the foot of the mountain alone accommodate more than 2,500 civilians who are good at farming and breeding.

Cast iron workshops, cement workshops, food processing plants and other industries also provide about 1,000 jobs, but the technical threshold is slightly higher and simple training is required starting from the apprentice.

Not long ago, a new iron ore-rich mining area was explored in the mountains southwest of the farm. Harvey immediately ordered a full set of mining equipment from the Longshi Chamber of Commerce and equipped with a working alchemy beast suitable for mineral mining. More than 500 new jobs have been provided.

In addition, due to the surge in the population of the territory, Harvey also set up a special municipal management department of the territory, promoting the first batch of refugees he received when he first arrived here to grassroots managers, while providing them with primary education and learning. , while developing municipal management of the territory.

Harvey expects to form a mature municipal management department in the later stage, which can provide the territory with about 200 educated municipal grassroots officials positions, which can basically meet daily territorial management work.

But even if we include the newly recruited 500 reserve soldiers, the entire territory currently has official jobs and income, and there are only about 5,000 people.

This means that there are about 3,000 entourage residents who will be unemployed after completing this batch of house construction projects in the territory. If food and residence are not distributed for free, there will be some chaos. Influencing the stability of the territory.

...

"Among these 3,000 civilians involved in the construction of the project, we can recruit about 500 reserve soldiers, and we can't have more. At present, our arsenal can only afford an army of 1,500 people..."

Reiner flipped through his workbook and analyzed to Harvey with a whisper.

Harvey scratched his head in annoyed manner, "Then there will be 2,500 people who are unemployed on the spot. It is not that they can't afford to support them in a short period of time, but this will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among other leaders who rely on their work to support themselves."

Not worrying about lack of worries but unevenness is a common mentality that will exist in any era.

"After the territory's mining area has stable iron ore production, I want to build an iron plant that can accommodate 1,000 jobs." Harvey spread out the simple territory planning map hand-painted by Reiner, and his fingers are in the mining area. There were points on the wide open land along the river between the farm.

For a long time, when the cast iron workshops in the territory made tools and weapons, they used Harvey's own pocket to buy finished iron ingots from outside chambers of commerce, and the transportation and smelting costs were very high.

Moreover, with the mass production of alchemy beasts, the use of metal parts and cast iron materials has increased. It is no longer realistic to rely solely on imported finished iron ingots to meet the needs of the military production industry.

Reiner rigorously recorded Harvey's ideas.

"The remaining part of the people who do not have jobs to provide, I also have a job placement plan..." Harvey took a thick charcoal pen and gently drew a huge ellipse around the territory planning map.

This circle is centered on the Lord’s Castle, covering the mining area, iron smelting plant, cast iron workshop, and cement workshop along the river on the east side, to the residential area, market area, municipal management center, and territory medical hospital on the southeast side, and then Go to the farm, pastoral area, food processing plant, storage area on the south side, the magic military factory and alchemy workshop on the west side, and until the military camp area on the north side.

Reiner leaned over and stared at the circle Harvey drew casually, and asked in confusion: "Sir, what does this mean?"

Harvey smiled slightly and explained with a firm heart: "City wall, this is the city wall of the territory."

Reina exclaimed, "Build such a long city wall? Accept the entire territory?"

He carefully took out a slender metal ruler from the familiar small leather bag on his waist, and measured the distance marked by Harvey, and then stopped saying, "Sir, this circle of city walls is probably It must be nearly twenty miles long…”

Harvey smiled and asked, "Then do you think it would take if 1,500 leaders of the alchemy beasts cooperated with the work to complete this grand construction work?"

The inscriptions on Reiner's head suddenly lit up, and it was obvious that high-speed computing activities were being carried out.

"Well...If the materials from the cement workshop and quarry can be supplied, I expect it will take at least four to five months to complete. During this period, I will not encounter unexpected situations such as evil orc attacks..."

He paused and added: "And once winter comes, construction will be impossible. You also know how terrible the winter temperature in the northern wilderness is."

No mistake, one post, one content, one 6, one 9, one book, one bar!

Harvey laughed, pulled Reiner to the desk, and handed him a thin stack of hand-drawn drawings.

"In addition to the territory wall, I also have a winter municipal construction plan. You can put it behind the wall project..."

Reiner nodded hesitantly and took the drawings and looked through them carefully.

"Sir...what is...the city three connections...two openings project?"

"As the name suggests, water connection, uh...lighting, heating, two openings means opening river transportation and ground roads."

Reiner's eyes lit up, and he looked at Harvey expectantly and said: "Water connection means digging wells, right? Lighting doesn't mean letting civilians light candles at home? What is heating?"

Harvey smiled helplessly and briefly explained his construction plan for the city three connections project to Reiner one by one.

"What? You mean to install lighting magic stones in every household, and use energy pipelines to connect them all for energy supply? The energy array will explode directly, right?"

"Don't worry, have you forgotten the planetary energy array built in the military factory?" Harvey circled a small circle on the territory planning map again, tapping the charcoal pencil, "I will also build a special energy power plant next to the military factory..."
