Chapter 139 Food Security
Recently, a large number of Zerg parasites have joined, and with the upcoming tens of thousands of people, the population of Daxia Territory has reached about 70,000.
The population of Daxia Territory has grown rapidly from more than 2,000 people at the beginning to more than 70,000 people, and the time taken can be counted with one hand.
Considering that the Goblin Chamber of Commerce will establish a branch in Mengzhong City, the Zerg will soon lead the Alliance to recapture the territory occupied by the evil god camp. In the near future, the purchased refugees and parasitic evil god believers will join Daxia Territory in large numbers.
With this rate of population growth, if there is no stable source of food, Daxia Territory will rely on the food of the evil god camp transported back from Mengzhong City. It will be empty before long, and everyone will starve.
The food supply of the territories in this world is basically grown by the territories themselves.
Although this world is in chaos, the land is fertile and the climate is very good, and food crops can be grown at any time.
There are many kinds of food crops, and many of them have the advantages of easy planting, short growth cycle and high yield. As long as you pay attention, it is no problem for ordinary territories to ensure their own food supply.
However, because the grain planting area needs to be placed in the lord's shelter area of the territory, or at least in the lord's shelter weakened area, the area of the grain planting area in each territory is limited.
In this way, the grain of ordinary territories can only be self-sufficient, and it is very difficult to have a surplus.
This has led to a great increase in the value of grain, and not much is circulated on the market.
Daxia Territory is now in a rapid expansion stage, and there is simply not enough space outside the city to grow grain. This is a major issue related to the development of the territory, and Wu Qing needs to solve it personally.
"You have analyzed the problems facing Daxia Territory now very well."
"I agree to adjust the lord's shelter area of Daxia Territory."
"This adjustment is aimed at building the planting area of the territory, mainly to meet your needs. What do you think of this adjustment?"
Wu Qing asked everyone present.
Hearing this, Hu Tu looked at the several people of the Flower Fairy Clan, and the several people of the Flower Fairy Clan looked at one of them.
Wu Qing had an impression of this girl from the Flower Fairy Clan. It was because she bravely stood up and asked to stay in the Great Xia Territory that they were able to get rid of the control of the Tengu Clan.
Wu Qing checked her information with the Queen Insect and found that her registered name was Lanhuaxian. He also checked the names of other Flower Fairy Clan members, all of whom were various Flower Fairies.
The Flower Fairy Clan girl named Lanhuaxian mustered up her courage, took out a map that had been prepared long ago, and stood up. She wanted to show it to Wu Qing, but she was a little afraid.
Wu Qing smiled and motioned to the guards around him to help get it.
After handing the map to the guards, Lanhuaxian finally spoke: "Dear Lord!"
"I drew three planting areas on the territory map. These are the areas we have demarcated after detailed research."
"The three planting areas are mutually inclusive and expanded in sequence. They are suitable for different stages of territory development. Please refer to them, Lord!"
Wu Qing took the map handed over by the guards and took a look. The map was very detailed and the markings were very clear.
The three planting areas mentioned by Lanhuaxian are actually one planting area, but they are divided into three construction stages with careful consideration of the development status of Daxia Territory.
Wu Qing can choose to expand the planting area step by step, or he can choose to build the largest planting area in one step.
This is actually part of the future development plan of Daxia Territory. Only Wu Qing can decide the speed of Daxia Territory's future development and decide how much luck to invest to expand the territory's lord protection range.
"You will formulate an implementation plan based on the construction of the largest planting area, and I will immediately adjust the territory's lord protection range."
"Most of the planting area will be in the weakened area of lord protection. If there is a need to clean up the weirdness, you can mobilize nearby Zerg soldiers to clean up at any time through the identity card."
"If you encounter any difficulties during the construction implementation, find Hu Tu to coordinate and solve them."
"I hope you can work together to complete the construction of the planting area as soon as possible, produce enough food, and provide strong support for the development of Daxia Territory!"
Wu Qing made a decision in an instant and encouraged everyone.
In Daxia Territory, once the task is given to you, all parties will fully cooperate with you. In all aspects related to the task, you have the greatest power.
This is a full decentralization of power, which gives people a sense of accomplishment in being the master of their own house. This management model is very friendly to those who really want to do things. It can fully mobilize people's enthusiasm and give full play to their personal expertise and wisdom.
With the omnipresent supervision of the Queen of Insects and various preventive measures of the Zerg, no one can play tricks in Daxia Territory.
"Yes, Lord!"
Hu Tu, Lanhuaxian and everyone present all stood up happily.
Wu Qing's choice is the greatest recognition of them.
In this world, although many lords are like slaves in front of the big families, they have absolute power in front of the people. People in this world only respect the lords and dare not get close to them.
The more Hu Tu grows up, the more he respects Wu Qing. He has gradually realized that Wu Qing is definitely not as simple as an ordinary lord.
He still remembered Wu Qing's kindness and training towards him, but he would never mention his identity as Wu Qing's younger brother again.
Wu Qing understood Hu Tu's mentality, but he didn't care. Human growth requires a process. Before Hu Tu grows to a certain height, he can't get rid of his current mentality.
After explaining the matter clearly, Wu Qing asked Hu Tu, Lanhuaxian and others to get busy.
Wu Qing's consciousness returned to his body, took out the Lord's Scepter, and began to adjust the Lord's protection range of Daxia Territory.
The Lord's protection range of Daxia Territory began to expand continuously. When the luck was insufficient, Wu Qing converted the Qi into the luck of Daxia Territory through the system to continue to maintain the expansion of the Lord's protection range of Daxia Territory.
Wu Qing stopped the adjustment until all the planting areas designated by Lanhuaxian were included in the weakened area of the Lord's protection range of Daxia Territory.
Such adjustments to the Lord's protection range require a lot of system Qi resources, but for the long-term benefits of Qi resources, such an investment is still worthwhile.
As Daxia Territory grows and develops, it can continue to provide a large amount of Qi resources for the system. With the development of the Zerg territory, more and more places will need Qi resources in the future.
Everyone in Daxia Territory can feel the adjustment of the protection range of the Lord of Daxia Territory.
Hu Tu and Lan Huaxian, who just left Wu Qing, were very happy. Seeing the efficiency of the Lord, they were also very motivated to discuss the construction of the planting area.
The people in Daxia Territory who have independent consciousness are happy for the development and growth of Daxia Territory.
