Tang Zhen retracted his gaze from the entrance of the valley and looked at other places.

“On the other side of the valley, the thousand Dragons were shouting loudly. The same group of residents were waving their sharp Sickles, cutting down the weeds and then flattening the ground with shovels. ”

“After clearing out an area of five mu, they began to build a simple shed. ”

“The ruler of this shed was about tens of meters long. According to the plan, a total of four needed to be built side by side in four rows. The main body of the shed was the iron pipe brought by Tang Zhen and the stones in the valley. After the iron pipe was reinforced with right-angle buckles, the top of the shed would be covered with colored steel tiles, and the surrounding would be blocked by stones. ”

“This kind of shed could be used as a trading stall, and it could also provide a temporary place for the Wanderers to shelter them from the sun and rain. It was also one of the means to attract homeless Wanderers. ”

“Tang zhenquan had the help of his storage space. Otherwise, it would have taken a long time to transport these construction materials. ”

“Now that the residents of the Holy Dragon City knew that the Lord City Master had magical abilities, Tang Zhen no longer avoided them. After seeing the Lord City Master Release resources a few times, the residents of the Holy Dragon City were used to it. ”

The lake in the valley could be seen further away.

“The rippling surface of the lake was very beautiful. The surface of the lake was vast, and the aquatic products were also very rich. Standing at a high place on a sunny day, you could see groups of fish swimming in the Green Lake. The whole picture was very beautiful. ”

“However, Tang Zhen was extremely clear that if he were to rashly enter the water to catch fish, he would definitely die a miserable death. ”

“In the luxuriant grass a few meters away from the shore, there was a type of worm that was like a thin rope. There were countless of them. What surprised Tang Zhen the most was that they were actually a type of miniature monster! ”

“The monster detector showed that these monsters were not of a high level. They usually fed on seaweed, but when a creature entered the water and got close to the seaweed, they would bite and strangle it until the target collapsed in the water. ”

“At this time, the target of the attack would become a delicious meal to improve their diet. ”

“and these terrifying insects happened to be the food of another kind of strange fish in the lake, the black fish that swam in groups. ”

tai seng had once told tang zhen that there should be something like a water monster living in the lake. he had personally seen a black shadow that was at least seven to eight meters long swimming across the lake.

“Even at night when the moon hung high in the sky, the roars of monsters could be heard from the lake. ”

“If Tang Zhen wanted to make use of this Lake, he would have to get rid of all kinds of dangerous creatures in the lake. The first thing he had to get rid of was naturally the unknown water monster. If he allowed it to occupy the lake, it would be a big threat to the Holy Dragon City and the Wanderer market that was being built in the valley. ”

“As for how to deal with this monster, Tang Zhen had already come up with a preliminary plan and would soon implement it. ”

“The lake was very fertile, and the land near the lake was the only land suitable for farming in the valley. ”

“After the reclamation of the residents, about one hectare of land had been cleared and several high-yield crops brought by Tang Zhen had been planted. ”

“The residents of the Holy Dragon City had never had any experience in farming land. Tang Zhen was the same. In order to learn how to farm, Tang Zhen searched for information and bought books. After a few days of hard work, he finally finished sowing the land. ”

“There were potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn, and more than a dozen different types of crops. ”

“Whether these plants could grow smoothly would directly determine the Holy Dragon city’s future food source. After all, it was not a long-term plan to rely on Tang Zhen to transport them. They needed a stable source of food. ”

“At the same time, it also cultivated a few kinds of wild plants unique to the world of loucheng, which were the main source of food for the Wanderers in this world. ”

“For example, the “” astringent melon “” that grew underground and was the size of a basin, the “” bitter stem “” that had starch in its stem, and the “” sour bean “” that looked like a pea. Each one was more and more unpalatable. ”

“However, the Wanderers in the world of loucheng had no choice. In order to fill their stomachs, they could only endure the strange taste and eat. ”

“It wasn’t that Tang Zhen wanted to eat these crops. He only wanted to see if the yield would increase after applying the chemical fertilizer he had brought. If the results were ideal, it was completely possible to plant some of these crops. ”

“Compared to the crops on earth, the life force of the plants in the loucheng world was too strong! ”

“After walking around the cultivated land, Tang Zhen was pleasantly surprised to discover that the ground was already sparsely covered with tender shoots. They were the sweet potatoes, potatoes, and other plants that he had brought from earth. ”

“He quickly called over the residents who were in charge of farming the land and told them to take good care of the seedlings, and to water and remove weeds in time. ”

Tang Zhen’s mood was extremely good when he saw these already sprouted crops.

“Each city Tower would provide a limited amount of food Exchange per month based on the number of residents. This was not a very important function, but it was indispensable. The food was not given for free, but needed to be exchanged with points. ”

“Unfortunately, the small amount of food exchanged could only ensure that the residents would not starve to death. It was absolutely impossible to fill their stomachs for every meal. However, in order to ensure the vitality of the city and let the residents work harder in the construction, the premise was to have a full stomach. Otherwise, how could the residents who were so hungry that they couldn’t even walk properly work? ”

“It could be said that solving the problem of food sources was one of the important problems that Holy Dragon City was currently facing. If it could not be solved properly, it would be difficult for Holy Dragon City to develop too much in the future. ”

“If Tang Zhen could control the original world, then this problem would be easily solved. After transferring a large number of people, he would turn the original world into a global processing plant and a large Granary. ”

“The dream was great, but it was still far away from being realized. So, from the current situation, if the residents of Holy Dragon City wanted to live a better life and have no worries about food and clothing, they had to work hard to earn money! ”

Money?

“When Tang Zhen thought up to this point, he realized that he had work to do. He needed to prepare a currency to replace the brain Pearl that could be used in the tower. ”

“When everything in loucheng was back on track, this currency could be used as a salary for the residents and also to exchange for the brain beads they had accumulated. ”

“Tang Zhen did not want to scheme against the pitiful brains in the pockets of the residents. Instead, he hoped that one day, all Wanderers who came to the Holy Dragon City to trade would use the currency issued by the Holy Dragon City. Otherwise, they would not be able to buy and sell goods. ”

“If the Wanderer teams wanted this currency, they would have to use the brain pearls to exchange for it. This way, a large number of brain pearls would enter Tang Zhen’s pocket. ”

“””City Lord, city Lord!”” ”

“Tang Zhen was pondering over a problem as he walked. Suddenly, a voice called out to him. He turned around and saw a soldier riding a tricycle that was driving unsteadily towards him. ”

“””What’s going on?”” ”

Tang Zhen waited for the tricycle to stop before asking.

“Then, the soldier stopped the tricycle and panted heavily as he said to Tang Zhen,””We stopped a Wanderer exploration team at the entrance of the valley. They asked to take refuge in the valley, saying that they wanted to avoid the pursuit of a group of kobolds. ”

“Leader Tai Seng and his brothers stopped them, but leader thousand Dragons invited you over, saying that there’s something on these people that you might be interested in!”” ”

“Tang Zhen immediately turned around and jumped onto the tricycle when he heard this. He said to the soldier, step on the gas! We’ll rush over immediately! ”

“Yes, sir! the soldier replied and immediately pressed the pedal to the metal. He then ran toward the entrance of the valley. ”

“When he was about to reach the entrance of the valley, Tang Zhen saw Tai Seng and Qian Long leading a group of fully armed Warriors and surrounding them. There were also a dozen or so Wanderers in tattered clothes squatting on the ground with dejected expressions. ”

“What made Tang Zhen feel astonished was that when he was sizing up these Wanderers, he noticed that golden light would occasionally flash on their bodies, making them appear extremely dazzling. ”

“Tang Zhen was greatly surprised. After jumping down from the tricycle, he arrived in front of these Wanderers in a few steps. ”

“what’s going on? “” Tai Seng was asking a robust Wanderer with a dark expression. From the guy’s bruised face, it was likely that he had misbehaved earlier and was beaten up by Tai Seng. ”

“Qian Long walked to Tang Zhen’s side and pointed at the Golden armor and hammer-shaped weapons on the Wanderers ‘bodies. He remembered that Tang Zhen liked to collect this kind of soft and heavy metal. Therefore, he immediately ordered his men to inform Tang Zhen. ”

Tang Zhen’s eyes were wide open as he looked at it. He picked up a Wanderer’s sledgehammer and took a closer look. He was certain that the sledgehammer was actually a whole piece of gold!

“He looked at the other Wanderers, and they all had Golden Hammer-shaped weapons and armor made of flattened golden plates. ”

A full set of gold equipment made Tang Zhen sweat profusely. What a group of rich people!

“After weighing the weight of The Golden Hammer, Tang Zhen could not help but ask,””I say, you guys are quite rich, to actually use this kind of weapon!”” ”

“When the brawny man who was beaten black and blue by Tyson heard this, he thought that Tang Zhen was laughing at them. He straightened his neck and said, “” “”You have money? Big brother, we really don’t have any money! If we had money, we would use these broken weapons. They’re heavy and soft, but we’re so poor that we have no choice but to use these weapons!”” ”

“Tang Zhen was speechless. A full set of genuine gold equipment and you’re still crying poor? you guys are so poor that you only have money left, right? ”

“Of course, Tang Zhen also knew that this burly man was speaking the truth. This was because in the world of loucheng, gold was truly worthless. Even a steel bar that could be made into a weapon was worth more than a large piece of gold. ”

“The only thing he was curious about was The Golden Hammer in his hand. It was obviously a component of some kind of artifact. Where did this group of Wanderers get it from, and why were they in such a sorry state? ”
