Chapter 1393

Generally speaking, depending on the craftsman's skill, the maximum durability will be reduced by about 5%–20%.

Overall, it's around 10%.

Almost every piece of equipment from this battle needs repairing.

It'll probably take a few days.

First, go find Zhuang Ya.

On the way, Zhao Chi opened the system to check the current situation.

From the establishment of the territory until now, 88 days have passed.

A very auspicious number.

In these nearly 3 months, Zhao Chi has truly made rapid progress.

The territory has grown to 4, and all kinds of supplies have accumulated enormously.

Zhao Chi only glanced at the recent two months' Xiao Xiao Jie before setting it aside, not looking closely.

Basically, Gu Qing handles the summaries and reports for him.

Now that he has time, he opened the information list to check.

Over these two months, not a single villager or craftsman has slacked off.

The trees in several territories were all chopped down bare by Lin Mei's logging team, and the Four-Armed Moon-Prayer helped a lot too.

But a few were kept for shade and greening purposes, though very few.

Li Zhu's carpentry team doesn't have many people; they mainly make furniture and transport vehicles.

Originally, large horse carts required several horses to pull together, usually 4–6.

But those Gongyu Oxen have astonishing pulling power—one Gongyu Ox can pull a large horse cart by itself.

Small wooden carts are used for daily transport.

Large wooden carts were originally pulled by several people together, but these female villagers can each handle one alone with no problem.

That's why the over 350,000 resources seized from the Shi Laimu lair could be transported back in just a few hours.

For others, that would be several days' worth of work.

3,000 units of iron ore were also mined.

Although Zhao Chi had previously thought about stockpiling strategic supplies, he couldn't just stop everything completely.

After all, Xia Jing's mining team still needs to level up their skills.

So Xia Jing and her team dig a little every day.

The amount they mine is very small, completely unable to keep up with Shen Lian's smelting team's consumption.

But after every battle, Zhao Chi seizes large quantities of basic supplies.

Those contain an enormous amount of iron ore.

Shen Lian's team uses that seized iron ore for smelting.

Previously, plenty of equipment was seized too, including fine iron equipment, but none of it was worth equipping or repairing.

Likewise, they had Shen Lian's team refine it into metal ingots.

As for forging.

Ding Dang's blacksmith team has the most members.

But forging iron armor still takes too much time, so Zhao Chi only had them forge weapons.

Now weapons and shields are fully self-sufficient.

At the same time, they also need to make all kinds of tools for the villagers to use.

Yang Lu's hunting team really has nothing to do now.

The animals were long ago hunted out by them.

But Zhao Chi hasn't disbanded them either—just keep them on for now.

Feng Xiu's sewing team doesn't get much attention from Zhao Chi.

It wasn't that they weren't good — it was that Zhao Chi had eliminated leather armor from the very start.

That could be considered quite rare.

The vast majority of other lords' main equipment was leather armor.

Feng Xiu and the others could only fall to making cloth garments and leather clothes.

But their craftsmanship was still quite good.

Although the women in the territory were excellent, they were still women after all, and naturally had no resistance to clothing.

So although they didn't need to make leather armor, they did need to make all kinds of pretty clothes for the female villagers, and were busy nonstop every day.

At the same time, household items like curtains, bedsheets, and bedding were also made by Feng Xiu and the others.

Now Zhao Chi rarely made fire oil.

So Chen Hua's oil-refining team also produced cooking oil and fire oil at a 1-to-1 ratio.

On average, each person could eat 1 sheng of oil per month.

But Zhao Chi's female villagers ate too much, and the cooking oil wasn't enough, so Zhao Chi could only buy some from outside.

Once the next batch of feathered cattle grew up, they could be slaughtered and butchered for fat to render into oil.

He quickly finished reviewing these.

Zhao Chi looked at his own data

【Zhao Chi's 2-Month Summary】

"Fashion" Silk Stockings 6062, High Heels 2310, Shirts 3830, Pajamas 3248

"Forging" Phoenix Cry Blade 1150, Moon-Chasing Spear 700, Mysterious Maiden Shield 1200, Mysterious Maiden Battle Armor Set 580

"Fertilizer Production" Gold-Block Fertilizer 10, Gold-Juice Fertilizer 180

【Zhao Chi's 2-Month Consumption】

"Equipment" Large Iron Blade 1150, Iron Spear 700, Iron Shield 1200, Iron Armor Set 580

"Swift-Work Talismans" 2700

"Rare Materials" 19080

Seeing this data, Zhao Chi was also startled.

He hadn't expected that in these 2 months, he had already made so much equipment.

And that didn't even include the largest quantity of Gu Qing's silk, nor Tang Ruan's jade armor.

Quite a few Swift-Work Talismans had been consumed.

Rare materials had been consumed in even vaster quantities.

Now there weren't many rare materials left for fashion, and he still needed to go buy some.

The several dozen material treasure chests from before had also all been used up.
