Of course, so far, due to limited conditions, we can only let them read and write first. Only children need to learn writing for the time being, and adults still have to wait first.
Xia Duo stood behind the crowd and listened for a while before returning to the villa with satisfaction.
Nowadays, the citizens of Daxia Territory generally like to learn new knowledge and new skills. This is of course not because they are eager to learn, but because Xia Duo uses his achievements to attract people from the front.
When slaves gain merit, they can escape from slavery (class jump); when subjects gain merit, they can divide fields and learn magic (wealth, power).
Moreover, the biggest difference between the Xia Duo Territory and other territories lies in the quantification of merit. What kind of work and how much merit can be obtained, and how much land can be divided according to the amount of merit. He clearly told the people of the territory, and did not do anything mysterious. word play.
For example, if a slave wants to leave his country, he only needs 10 small merits. If he works normally for a year without making any mistakes, he can get 1 small work and then he can leave his country in ten years.
But in reality, it doesn’t take ten years at all. In addition to normal work, there are other ways to gain merit, such as learning new skills, proposing specific suggestions for improvement, teaching others new skills, completing temporary tasks assigned by the lord, etc.
Currently, more than one slave in the territory has shaken off his status as a slave and become an official citizen of the territory, and Xia Duo's goal is to convert all slaves into citizens of the territory.
The work efficiency of slaves is definitely not as good as that of normal people, especially in the rapidly developing land of Daxia Territory.
…
Back in the study, Xia Duo simply wrote a few strokes on the paper, just to mention some things to be dealt with tomorrow, and then it was time to make an appointment with Niya.
He took out the communication sphere, constantly stimulated and transmitted messages, and exchanged ideas with Niya on how to crack Feld's spell. Occasionally, he also interspersed some daily news, and then compiled the key information exchanged into notes.
It wasn't until late at night that the two stopped communicating, but Shado still didn't rest. Instead, he tried to crack the Feld spell book and accumulated content for the next communication with Niya.
"Gene Era"
The plane field is indeed his chosen future research direction, which can be regarded as a mid- to long-term plan, but in the short term, Xia Duo still has many things to complete.
Spell books aside, even if he doesn't make some magic items himself, he still has to find ways to outsource them. However, what he wants are all high-quality items. In the final analysis, it's still a matter of money and time.
At present, what Sha Duo is most concerned about is when Giles Tower will register [Magic Network Background Communication] with the Arcane Federation. As long as he registers, he can start selling communication magic weapons, and it will be easy to achieve a few small goals. .
"Ah-eh"
I don't know how much time passed, but Xia Duo couldn't hold back a yawn and realized that he should rest. Xia Duo didn't force himself to stay in the best condition as much as possible.
However, before going to bed, he did not forget to use [Create Arcane Crystal]. As for the test of the true energy consumption of the spell, he completed the test on the way back in more than a month.
Currently, with his arcane upper limit, he can only cast one 5-level spell, or two 4-level spells. If all of them are used to cast 1-level spells, he can probably cast about 10.
If the average energy consumption of a 1-level spell is "1 arcane point", then his current upper limit of arcane energy is almost 10 points, and a 5-level spell consumes 10 points.
As for the energy consumption of spells at higher levels, he was not able to test it yet. However, from the existing test results, Xia Duo speculated that as the level increases, the energy consumption of spells does not increase linearly, but increases exponentially.
The energy consumption of a 1st level spell and a 5th level spell may only differ by 10 times, but from 5th level to 10th level the energy consumption may vary by a hundred times.
From this, it can also be speculated that the upper limit of arcane energy possessed by those great arcanists is probably hundreds of times that of a new arcanist, or even higher.
This only counts the amount of arcane energy. If you also include the high energy efficiency brought by high knowledge, then the actual spell ability of the Grand Arcanist is too exaggerated, making it impossible for people to resist!
Really, the more you understand, the less afraid you become.
…
Early the next morning, Shado called Leiden to the study.
Leiden saluted respectfully and said, "Sir, what are your orders?"
"I asked you to come here for two main things."
Xia Duo looked at the note on the table and sketched it twice, "One is the expansion of the canteen. I didn't pay attention to it during the day yesterday. I only remembered it at night. A group of new residents will be coming soon. This matter should be done as soon as possible. It’s done, and we need to increase the number of people in the kitchen, giving priority to frail women.”
The Great Xia Territory is currently in the development stage. Both men and women need to work, and most of it is heavy manual labor. However, there are indeed physical differences between men and women. Now that the labor force is slightly more abundant, it is time to consider these factors.
Leiden was not surprised when he heard this. He had known for a long time that the lord was a benevolent lord, but he still had some different opinions on the expansion of the canteen. "Sir, now all the territorial residents have their own houses. Let them bring food from the canteen." Just take it back and eat it. There is no need to expand the canteen. You only need to change the dining area in the canteen into a kitchen, so that manpower can be placed where it is needed more."
"Huh -" Sha Duo was very surprised. This was the first time that Leiden did not agree directly, but put forward a different opinion. Could it be that he had changed his temper?
Although Leiden had always behaved like a tool man before, obeying orders completely and never questioning, but Shado did not need a tool man who only knew how to obey orders. What he needed was a thoughtful subordinate who could check for his mistakes and fill in the gaps. , gain what he cannot.
Sha Duo looked at Leiden carefully, and Leiden looked at him frankly. From Leiden's eyes, Sha Duo saw respect, awe, trust, and expectation.
It was hard to imagine that he could see such complex emotions in a person's eyes, but Sha Duo was very happy to see this change, and he had no objection to Leiden's suggestions.
"Just do as you say!"
In fact, what Xia Duo first thought was that the canteen could be used as a display window for the territory, and to a certain extent, it could also shock the new territory residents and allow them to integrate into the territory faster.
However, when Leiden said it, he quickly realized that the territory was being developed and there were too many labor opportunities, so they could be transformed through labor and become the citizens of Daxia that he wanted.
Then, Xia Duo talked about the second thing:
"The second thing is related to the upcoming new residents. In fact, I mentioned it yesterday, and I will say it again today. If nothing unexpected happens this year, there should be several groups of new residents arriving. When assigning working groups, there are Families should be separated as much as possible, but the houses should be allocated together. In addition, territorial policy propaganda should be in place, and other procedures should be followed. "
Leiden thought carefully for a while before nodding heavily, "Yes, I will pay attention!"
It was really different. Sha Duo was quite moved by this and waved his hand, "You go ahead and do your work first! Call Atwood over by the way."
"Yes." Leiden responded and backed out.
Sha Duo continued his work of deciphering the spell book. No matter what kind of character Layton became, Sha Duo did not doubt his loyalty. In other words, even if Layton had different intentions, unless he lost his mind, he would still have to be obedient. obedient.
Governance is naturally not restricted by doctrines, beliefs, and contracts alone, but also by strength, interests, systems, and order. Together they are the most powerful constraints.
