Once you have wheat seeds, can you plant the fields directly and then wait to eat steamed buns and dumplings
That is impossible.
After Zhang Yang consumed 21 fragments of hope to get enough seeds, he discovered that he still lacked the tools for farming.
At the very least, there must be plows for plowing the land.
So he kept doing nothing, and Zhang Yang replaced two simple iron plows.
As for the oxen that pull the plow, you can't let farmers pull them. Their average attributes are only F+.
So he called over four elite spearmen. The power of E+ is equivalent to five adults on the earth, no worse than a big buffalo. Brothers, thank you for your hard work first.
After making sure that nothing was missing, Zhang Yang fled as if he was running away under the resentful eyes of the four elite spearmen. This kind of thing was really terrifying.
Next, Zhang Yang went to the fifth-level residential house. Here he finally gained a lot of comfort, because he could hear the laughter of children from a long distance away. This was really more comfortable than taking an elixir.
Let’s first look at the properties from the outside.
Residential buildings: Level 5
Number of households that can be accommodated: 20 households
Current population: 98 people.
Elderly people (over 45 years old): 6 people, first generation residents, cannot be recruited.
Prime age (30~45 years old): 40 people, second generation residents, the female owner cannot be recruited, the male owner can be recruited as lumberjacks, farmers, craftsmen, hunters, cooks, etc. If forced to recruit as recruits, loyalty will be lost , and will cause population decline.
Young adults (16~29 years old): 29 people, third generation residents, all can be recruited, but after women are recruited, the birth rate will decrease.
Teenagers (12~15 years old): 11 people, third-generation residents, cannot be recruited.
Children (4~11 years old): 8 people, fourth generation residents, cannot be recruited.
4 young children (0~3 years old), fourth generation residents, cannot be recruited
Warning: Please note that when reproducing the village, fresh blood must be injected before the sixth generation of residents reaches adulthood, otherwise accidents will occur.
Current villager loyalty: 50 (explanation, the villager's desire to reproduce is related to loyalty, village prosperity, and livability value. When the loyalty is greater than 80, the village prosperity is greater than 100, and the livability index is greater than 20, each couple will Have three children during your childbearing years and have a good chance of surviving.)

"interesting."
Zhang Yang calculated it. The first-generation residents were ignored and the calculation started from the second-generation residents.
There were 20 boys and 20 girls, and a total of 40 children were born, 24 boys and 16 girls.
Now, six pairs of men and women among the third generation residents have gotten married and given birth to 12 children. These are the fourth generation residents.
There are 28 remaining third-generation residents. Assuming a marriage structure of one man and one woman, there will be 8 bachelors.
As for the fourth generation residents, there are 12 children, 7 boys and 5 girls. This ratio is not very friendly.
So no matter what, he had to find a way to expand the population.
"So for the time being, let's build a new residence first. It's too crowded here. Among the second-generation residents, there should be many couples who can continue to have a third child. And if there is a more spacious residence, it would be better With such conditions, many third-generation residents can get married and have children.”
"However, the requirements for giving birth to a third child are not low. The villagers' loyalty must reach 80, the village's prosperity must be greater than 100, and the livability index must be greater than 20."
Zhang Yang thought about it and quickly opened the village building order panel.
The calculation method of village prosperity is as follows: a level 1 building adds 1 point of prosperity, a special building adds 5 points, each level increases 5 points, each level of building level increases 2 points of prosperity, and 10 points of prosperity are required. Will increase the livability index by 1 point.
He now owns a level 1 training ground, a level 1 barracks, a level 5 residential house, a level 5 civilian farmland, a level 5 giant horned deer barracks, and the Tower of the Wood Demon, so the total prosperity is 40, and the livability index is 4. There is really a long way to go.
"Then first recruit 8 craftsmen, 8 lumberjacks, 2 butchers, and 2 cooks."
Zhang Yang quickly recruited these 20 second-generation residents. They were all middle-aged men between 30 and 45 years old. They were the legitimate heads of the family. It was definitely not appropriate to force them to be recruits, so they lost their loyalty. Spend.
But there is no problem in recruiting them to do ordinary jobs, just to support their families.
In other words, if you recruit new soldiers, you cannot recruit people with families.
At this time, as Zhang Yang successfully recruited people in the village building order, 20 middle-aged men began to walk out of the fifth-level residential houses. Unfortunately, they were all empty-handed, not even an axe.
Fortunately, they all come with the basic skills of their respective professions. For example, the lumberjack has Lv1 logging skills, the butcher has Lv1 slaughtering/peeling skills, and the cook has Lv1 cooking skills.
The skills of the craftsmen are basically the same as those of Zhao Tiezhu.
"It's really a clean slate, starting from scratch."
With a sigh, Zhang Yang could only take out the fragments of gray-quality hope again. He used trial methods to get 16 saws, 16 axes, 8 hammers, 8 chisels, two boning sharp knives, two kitchen knives, and two large irons. pot, and 50 kg of salt.
This uses up 20 pieces of hope.
Equip them with these tools and items, arrange for the two cooks to prepare lunch, and let the eight lumberjacks go to the nearby woods to cut trees. After all, improving skills requires proficiency.
Then Zhang Yang took eight junior craftsmen to find Zhao Tiezhu. The expansion of the fortress can be suspended for now. The top priority is to build another residential house. After all, this is not a game. Giving birth to a baby really requires ten months of pregnancy.
And these craftsmen can't just throw in the materials and build buildings like in the game. They must first be taught how to cut wood, how to lay a good foundation, how to make wooden holes, and how to rivet. Only then, Zhang Yang had to explore this aspect himself. You can imagine how bad he felt.
But bad things were bad. Every foundation and every detail of the village determined its future success or failure. He did not dare to take it lightly.
The location of the new residential building was chosen to the west under the hill, 150 meters away from the fortress and 100 meters away from the training ground. It is next to the first level 5 residential building, leaving a 10-meter road gap in the middle.
Well, these publicity can still be planned.
"The foundation must be laid first. You guys, dig directly down along the line I drew. The specific depth of digging first will depend on your size. Be sure to be standard!"
According to the standards for level 5 residential buildings across the street, Zhang Yang first drew a large square grid and marked the two-meter-wide foundation ring beam area, and then asked ten soldiers to dig hard with shovels, which was much faster than an excavator. , as long as they don't dig wrong.
"All the craftsmen, come with me, and you guys are coming too. Let's go pick some stones first. Wait, should I bake the bricks first? That's what those time-travel novels say—"
Zhang Yang's forehead was sweating a little, he was really feeling guilty.
"No matter, let's quarry the stones first, then the tall buildings will rise from the ground. I understand the importance of laying a good foundation."
Passing by the training ground with dozens of people, they saw the instructor surnamed Qin sitting in the room leisurely watching the rain, looking very poetic.
This made Zhang Yang very unhappy, so he asked, "Can you help me train craftsmen?"
"Village Chief, I can't, I can only train new recruits." The instructor Qin Ge replied with a smile, but Zhang Yang thought there was something in his words.
"So, who can train the craftsmen?"
"Report to the village chief, a higher-level craftsman will do, but instead of finding a high-level craftsman, you might as well train it yourself."
The instructor surnamed Qin Ge answered sternly, not bad at all, always with an inexplicable smile, as if he was watching a joke.
So Zhang Yang cursed MMP in his heart and simply changed his approach.
"I'll give you 1,000 energy points, and you can help me find a way. Anyway, you can be a mercenary. This little problem should be no problem, right?"
"1,000 points of energy!" Upon hearing this number, the instructor Qin Ge seemed to immediately become more energetic. "Village Chief, you are really wise. My mother was once an outstanding craftsman apprentice. I have been influenced by it since I was a child, and I probably still remember some general things. Little tricks, wait, sir, what do you want to build?”
"Level 5 residential buildings."
"Level 5? Impossible, Mr. Village Chief, I can only help you build level 3 houses. As for whether they can learn it, I don't care."
"You mean, you'll help me build it?" Zhang Yang was stunned. He thought this guy would pull out a family drawing.
"Yes, apart from this method, there seems to be no other way to teach them. Real knowledge comes from practice!" The instructor Qin Ge looked innocent.
"Okay, it's a deal!"
Zhang Yang breathed a sigh of relief. If he had to lead these craftsmen to build the house in person, he would probably not be able to finish it in ten or eight days, and he would still have to hurry up and finish the iron wall war pattern.
