It took eight hours to complete this difficult 15-kilometer journey. The materials and prisoners were safely escorted to Huayi.

...

[Ding... The temporary mission "Rescue the female slave who is going to be killed by someone" is completed, and 100 points are obtained] The system prompt sounds.

.....

The military camp kitchen and palace kitchen had already prepared delicious meals as Hua told me, as well as water and food for the prisoners.

After eating, Hua began to count the number of people. In this battle, his side suffered a small loss, only one bamboo bow archer and a Ge soldier were killed. The body had been brought back, and several others were slightly injured.

Hua divided the prisoners into two categories: one was released from the cage and shack, as well as the low-level servants and women of the Chongwu family. In addition, Qiu, this type would be regarded as civilians of the Xia Kingdom. The second type was prisoners of war, and the senior male servants of the Chongwu family, including the butler of Chongwu, were treated as prisoners of war.

Qiu has found her lover Yu Kuan from the first type of people. Hua asked all other women to choose a husband from the first type of men to form a family.

Hua gave these people an impromptu speech, allowing them to settle down in Xiaguo. Xiaguo can ensure that they have enough food and clothing, personal safety, and can be assigned to private fields in the future.

The condition is that they must completely obey China's differences and complete all labor tasks. What they have to do now is to cultivate public fields and serve some labor in the basin behind Huayi. Without China's approval, they are not allowed to leave Huayi and the basin, otherwise they will be killed without mercy.

Hua still made people twist the tongues of 45 people in the second category, and was imprisoned with the five mute slaves before to serve labor.

Hua did this without the slightest meaning of "punishing evil and promoting good". Of course, he knew that the second type of people had good people, and the first type of people had cunning people. For the sake of the safety of the territory, he could only do this for the time being.

At this time, the population structure of Xia State was a systemic population                                                                                                                        

The total population is 536. Hua has opened the system panel again. There are 48,000 kilograms of grain in the warehouse, 220 kilograms of coarse salt, 2,200 kilograms of various cured meats and bacon, and the grain and salt problems have been initially solved.

The next day, Hua performed a solemn ceremony and buried two soldiers who died on the slopes in the basin.

Under the command of the system farmers, the indigenous civilians began to get busy. Fifty prisoners of war slaves also began to work under the surveillance of the sage farmers. The hunting period has ended, and now only ten bamboo bow hunters are hunting on the southern basin plains to provide more than 500 people with daily protein and fat supply.

Now only a small part of these daily prey will be made into cured meat and bacon to supplement the same inventory consumption, so that the stock of cured meat and bacon can always be maintained.

In the northern basin plains, farmers began to log, burn wasteland and dig ditches according to Hua's requirements. However, because of the simple tools, the logging used several bronze axes seized in Nanshanyi, which was too slow.

Therefore, Hua spent 200 points on the north bank of Rushui in the city to build a Bronze Age primary workshop. Only 110 points were spent. Due to the increase in the number of facilities and supporting personnel, the system population increased by 15, which turned into 228.

The junior workshop has a bronze casting yard, wooden crafting room and other subdivided places, as well as craftsman dormitories and kitchens.

Hua checked all the preset categories that can be produced in this workshop through the system panel, but did not find a tool like saw. However, after looking at the workshop facilities and referring to the system preset items that can be produced in the workshop, he believed that the conditions were met to produce the bronze saw.

When Hua entered the workshop, 10 craftsmen in the workshop bowed to Hua together and said, "See the Lord."

"Everyone is free to give me gifts."

Huaxiang, a year-old craftsman, described the idea of ​​a tool like a bronze saw and drew rough figures on the sand table. The old craftsman said: "There is no problem at all. As long as there is bronze raw material, samples can be created soon."

Hua said: "This is simple. Curry has a large number of bronze weapons. I'll use it to melt it for you."

Soon, hundreds of bronze spears turned into ten double-person bronze saws. Hua realized that although using system production facilities to produce objects requires real resources, it does not take time and is made in almost instant.

With saws, the logging work efficiency in the plains in the central and northern basin was immediately greatly improved. The thick logs were sent to the north and south sides of the west wall of Huayi to build walls that block the gap between Huayi and the two cliffs in the north and south. The relatively small wood was used to build houses in village settlements in the basin.

...

Time passed quickly, and two months later, the 800 acres of wasteland were reclaimed. It was still early before the spring sowing season, and Huateng continued to burn the wasteland and reclaim more land.

As the land reclamation extends to the depths of the basin, the place of work is getting farther and farther away from Huayi, so it is necessary to build villages. So some manpower is allocated to build villages in the basin and build simple adobe thatched huts on the solid soil base.

The wall connecting the Huayi city wall and the two cliffs has also been built. Although it is only a simple wall composed of more than 100 meters in length and seven meters in height, it still consumes two months of working hours for thirty civilians and ten system farmers.

...

[Ding… Main mission 3 "Reclaiming 800 Acres of Wasteland" has been completed, and 100 points are obtained]

[Ding…Main Task 5                                                          �

[Ding...Temporary missions to find trade points for merchants, and the mission rewards 200 points]

Hearing the continuous system prompts, Hua quickly opened the panel to check and found that his points had already reached 210.

He opened the building module and saw which buildings could be built or upgraded. There are still only two options available for building [Bronze Age Primary House] and upgrading to [Bronze Age Intermediate Palace].

After spending 160 points, a complex of residential buildings sprung up like mushrooms after a rain on the south bank of the Rushui River, lined up one after another, with a total area of ​​more than 10,000 square meters. There are hundreds of houses of various types.

This time the total population of the system has not increased, and it seems that there is no attached population in the house. Hua checks the functions of the house through the panel and found that there are several options: [Farmer], [Bamboo Bow Hunter], [Witch Doctor], and [Buyer-seller].

[A businessman is a businessman, why do you still call a businessman such a white name?] Hua looked at the three words "buyer and seller" and said in surprise.

Immediately, he realized that it was the Shang Dynasty. In order not to be confused with the "buyer" who refers to the merchant, he used "buyer and seller".

In fact, it was precisely because the people of the Shang tribe were proficient in trading and were keen on this industry that the term "merchant" in later generations became synonymous with businessmen. The merchants first became stronger by trade and eventually established the Shang empire that Wanfang surrendered.

The cost of [Witch Doctor] and [Buyer-Seller] is 2 points, and Hua only has 50 points left. He thought about it and asked for three witch doctors and two businessmen.

Spring is approaching, and the season when diseases are at high risk, there are several witch doctors here, ready for trouble.

The businessman had to follow Hua to the south. If he looked for other places, Hua might not be able to find it, but Hua was more familiar with the trade points of the merchants because there was one in the northeast of his mother country, Yiguo.
