Struggle in the Steam Age

Chapter 557: Development and expansion

The seaweed planting industry soon brought a huge change to the life of that group of Lorca murlocs, because they knew that they would do some meaningful work next without needing to eat relief on the island for nothing. So after receiving the news, they immediately mobilized the whole people to keep everyone busy.

Almost all the labor that can be mobilized among the Lorca murlocs has gone to plant this kind of algae. Although the seedlings needed now are not enough, everyone can still do some preparations similar to leveling the seabed. . In addition, the priests of the agricultural church are also trying to cultivate more seedlings with culture medium.

In addition, the Lorca murlocs also selected a small group of their smartest compatriots to go ashore and follow the priests of the agricultural church to learn how to grow this seaweed. At this time, the priests of the agricultural church will try their best to pass on the concept of circular agriculture to these Roka people when teaching them knowledge.

However, the spread of this idea is naturally supported by powerful facts. For example, after planting these seaweeds, the underwater natural environment in this area, especially in offshore areas, will gradually improve, and then it will attract a large number of biological communities. . In this way, it is natural to provide a variety of resources for the people of Loka fish.

Therefore, it is very important for them to teach these Lorca murlocs to learn circular agriculture, because after mastering circular agriculture, they can live and thrive here for a long time, without the need for every time like the original fishing, hunting and gathering era. After a while, I had to move around because local resources were exhausted.

For a civilization, settlement is very important. At least relative to the wandering nomadic or fishing and hunting life, a stable life helps to get rid of the original shortage of materials, promote population growth and wealth accumulation, and then further promote the development of overall civilization. As the old saying goes: Cangling is enough to know etiquette.

As a result, the entire island immediately entered a new round of construction: whether it is the pastures in the Blue Mountain Meadows, the newly developed ground and underwater farms, or the railways to be built in the industrial zone are all major projects. Therefore, in addition to drawing labor from the island as much as possible through scientific planning, Lawrence also hired a large number of people from the outer islands and even the New World.

These foreign labors mainly come from Eagle Fort and Huguang City of the White Eagle Federation. As the largest city in the entire Federation and the New World, this kind of place will naturally attract workers with various identities, but it is obviously impossible for all of these workers to find satisfactory jobs~www.ltnovel.com~Welfare] Pay attention to the public..

So Lawrence naturally recruited some labor, especially skilled workers, for the island through factories located in these two places. Thanks to their help, the factories newly built on the island can be seen so quickly, and at the same time, the steam farming machinery everywhere can run smoothly.

This is the main reason why New Sauer Island can use so few people to open up so many land and plantations. With the help of machinery, they finally succeeded in solving the problem of sparsely populated island and serious shortage of labor. The problem. It may take several times the time to obtain the results of the surrounding islands in a short time.

With more and more materials and safe areas at his disposal, Lawrence's control over the island has also become stronger. For example, the faction that had always refused to listen to the greetings, with the town of Tanas at the northwest corner of the island as its core force, is now clearly infiltrated by the forces under Lawrence.

For example, after two large-scale battles, especially after this support battle against Vieques. It turned out that the group of guys who had always thought that they could be the emperor of this area had a serious division inside. It is true that there are still hopeful recalcitrants, but most people have already recognized the current situation at this time.

Especially after this victory over the Sahua Murlocs in Vieques, the group of people suddenly realized that Lawrence was different from the pioneers who ended in sadness before now. He and his power not only allowed him to hold his own. Territory, but also allows him to continue to develop new living spaces on the island.

In other words, Lawrence has a solution to them. Not to mention what Lawrence is doing on the island now clearly shows that he will never tolerate the existence of these earth emperors on the island. They just don't want to shed too much blood if they haven't solved it now.

So many smart people took the initiative to surrender to Lawrence during this period of time. After Lawrence told their messengers about the rules of the island, only a few of the leaders chose to bring their own forces into Lawrence's system. And most of the guys chose to give up everything on the island and leave the island.

Facing those who left, Lawrence naturally treats it according to the situation. With the help of the church, their previous attitude towards the people became a benchmark for how to deal with them. For example, for people whose reputations are generally or even not very good, when Lawrence discounts the wealth they hold, it will inevitably be discounted.

For these guys, although the money is certainly not as much as the wealth they had previously possessed, considering what they did before. At this time, being able to give them money and let them leave with floating wealth was considered Lawrence let them go. They naturally understood this, so the whole process went smoothly.

In addition, when those people with good reputations leave, Lawrence naturally converts them according to their original wealth. Unexpectedly, when Lawrence said that they could choose between goods and currency in order to avoid them withdrawing too much cash, almost everyone chose the goods on the island or the last time Lawrence they got it. Loot.

At first Lawrence hadn't realized why everyone did it according to their own ideas, but then realized that the tea and medicine sold on the island are some very popular goods, even if they don’t want to put forward the goods. To sell, just go to those big countries and change hands to earn extra money.

The same is true for the trophies from the Sahua murlocs. The value of these trophies in the sea is naturally different in the Star Sea region and in other places. So even if Lawrence is calculated based on the high price of the Star Sea area, they can still make a profit if they take shots elsewhere.

From a certain point of view, this is also a win-win situation~www.ltnovel.com~ After all, Lawrence will be able to realize this wealth for a while, but for him, he has to endure it in a short time. The extremely high depreciation ratio is all shot, or it can only be shot bit by bit for two years or even longer.

After solving the problem of the group of people who left, the next thing is how to deal with the group of people who stayed. According to the regulations, these people will all be gathered for a series of training, and their territories will undergo a comprehensive reform like other territories.

This is to ensure that the entire island can have a unified policy to ensure the perfect implementation of various regulations. So even if this group of people voluntarily surrendered to Lawrence, they will be moved away from their original location, and the original territories will also be completely remodeled in order to keep all the territories on the island consistent.

Fortunately, those who are willing to follow Lawrence now naturally know these things, so in general, the problem is not big. But all kinds of small problems have emerged in an endless stream. For example, some small ground snakes have used the means of spreading rumors, inciting the people and even armed riots to prevent Lawrence and the others from taking over.

However, this is naturally no different from a praying mantle. The regular army organized by Lawrence and the team of church clergy quickly crushed these resistances and brought everything back to peace.
