Chapter 738

These pajamas are only worn before sleeping, so they basically won't suffer combat damage.

Under normal wear, they only lose about 1 durability point per day.

Each pair of pajamas can be worn for 100 days.

That's acceptable.

The past two days have been very calm.

But this calm is limited to the outlying villages.

I heard the towns and counties are all in chaos.

Some rebel forces have taken control of county cities or towns and begun maintaining order.

But there are also rebel forces constantly plundering, kidnapping, and extorting.

Meanwhile, the nobles and the alien races are clashing nonstop in the central region; it's unclear who's stronger.

Zhao Chi's territory population has reached 342.

Taoyuan Village's development is basically paused; everyone is focusing on developing Penglai Village.

Regardless of profession, everyone is building.

In Penglai Village, large tracts of land have already been developed, and all kinds of buildings are being constructed nonstop.

Priority is given to production buildings, such as blacksmith shops and smelting shops.

Basically no new wooden houses are being built; if tired, one can just return to Taoyuan Village to sleep.

Besides, the barracks also have beds.

For unhappiness caused by harsh conditions, there's also the Carefree Spring to boost mood.

Anyway, everything is temporary.

In a few more days, Penglai Village should be initially developed.

【Penglai Village New Buildings】

【Workers】 150 people

【Team Leader】 Fang Li

【Time】 3 days

【Newly Built】 Carpentry Shop 1, Tailor Shop 2, Blacksmith Shop 2, Smelting Shop 2, Oil Refining Shop 1, Warehouse 2, Militia Camp 1, Spearman Camp 1, Swordsman Camp 1, Archer Camp 1

Among them, only 60 are construction workers; the other 90 are people from various professions who came to help build.

Although workers from other professions build much slower, there are indeed more hands making lighter work.

In just 3 days, 14 buildings rose from the ground.

Barracks are medium-sized buildings; if all small buildings were built instead, even more could be constructed.

【3-Day Production Summary】

【Carpentry】 Lumber 130

【Logging】 Wood 780

【Smelting】 Iron Ingots 1560

【Zhao Chi】 Pajamas 441

Nothing else was done these past few days; everything was focused on construction.

Among them, lumber is the building material, processed from wood.

With lumber, construction workers don't need to process wood, which speeds up building.

Moreover, carpenters produce lumber faster than construction workers, so carpentry is actually part of the building process.

This time, all 780 pieces of wood were chopped in Penglai Village, and the open space in Penglai Village has further expanded.

Smelting output was high.

All of these were smelted from those black armor pieces.

Smelting has high loss but is very fast.

Much faster than smelting from iron ore.

【3-Day Basic Material Consumption】

【Wood】 940 pieces

【Lumber】 130 pieces

【Iron Ingots】 94 pieces

【Food】 1450 kilograms

Basically, the consumption these past few days was all for construction; building houses also requires a small amount of iron ingots.

In just these three days, 1450 kilograms of food were consumed.

For a scale of 342 people, that's quite a lot.

On average, each person consumes 1.5 kilograms of meat per day.

But after all, everyone is working hard, and physical exertion is great.

Moreover, each person works about 20 hours a day, so they indeed need large amounts of food to replenish.

Although these female villagers are all delicate, class-flower-level beauties, when they work they resemble sturdy orc laborers.

With this comparison, the high food consumption becomes easier to accept.

Fortunately, there's plenty of food now; it can hold out for a while.

Taoyuan Village has 22 farm plots.

Among them, 2 are experience fruit fields, and 20 are wheat fields.

All of them only need 25 days to fully mature, and the yield is extremely high.

Now they've already grown a little over halfway, and in another ten-plus days the whole crop can be harvested.

The Experience Fruits should yield about 10,000.

At one per person per day, that's enough for everyone to eat until the next harvest cycle.

The wheat fields can yield roughly 130 tons of wheat grain.

Ground into flour, that comes to about 100 tons.

Pure flour has about the same calories as meat.

If these 100 tons of flour are harvested, the entire territory can eat lavishly for over half a year.

Even adding in the new villagers arriving each day, eating for several months is no problem.

Although the nutrition is one-sided, it's absolutely enough to sustain life!

And this is only Taoyuan Village's farmland.

Later, large-scale farmland will be developed in Penglai Village, and the grain harvested then will be a vast amount.

In that case…

The food problem is already solved?

Just that simple?

With such a massive amount of grain to trade, it looks like he has the potential to become a great grain merchant.

Of course, it might be dangerous for him to appear in person. Even when selling grain, it has to go through someone else, like the Zhao clan family…

Or simply possess some woman's body and sell grain through a proxy.

Just like before, when he piloted Gu Qing to sell stockings.

These past two days, Zhao Chi wasn't idle at night either.

The 2 points of genetic material recovered each day were sucked clean by those three women, not a bit left by dawn.

Not counting what was consumed before.

Now Gu Qing has absorbed and stored 9 points, Tang Ruan 6, Qi Yue 3, totaling 18 points.

Genetic Enhancement can temporarily grant 50% of Zhao Chi's attributes.

As his attributes greatly increased, when these women use it now, the effect has become Strength +3, Agility +3, Movement Speed +3, Perception +5 — quite a major enhancement.

Too bad the duration is short, only 5 seconds.

It can only be treated as an ultimate move with a limited number of uses.

It would be great if more genetic material could be supplemented.

He wondered if Gu Qing had a way.

He'd ask her later.

Zhao Chi was just thinking when he suddenly received a sharp alarm.
