Modo City.

When they walked into this city, many people couldn't help but look surprised on their faces.

It’s not that everything in front of me is so shocking, but what they see is too neat. The flat and clean roads are lined with digging drains, and there are free land beside them, and some of them have been planted with flowers and plants. Although this city is not as big as the Luoye City, the road is even wider than the Luoye City. It seems that they have just separated into two roads from the middle recently. From this point of view, you can feel that the owner of this city has already made arrangements.

Spacious roads, clean floors, neat houses.

Even half-elves who are a little particular about their living environment have to admit that this is the cleanest, most orderly city they have ever seen and imagined.

Maybe the sailors said it was true!

My Lord Sauron is really obsessed with cleanliness and has strict requirements for order. I heard that if I was caught in the port of Modo, I would not only have to be fined but also hang up and beaten! Otherwise, those habits of finding a dark corner from other places would not be forced to be changed so quickly.

No matter what people in this era think!

Sauron would never allow people in his city to urinate or defecate anywhere. He specially built so many public toilets. If he dared to urinate or defecate anywhere, he would even cut them into tools for committing crimes.

The neat and spacious road is lined with rows of brick and tile houses.

Some of them have already taken over. Each brick and tile house is not large in size, only about two rooms, but the layout is quite reasonable. There is also two meters long land in front of the house to grow something. There are more people living in the south of the city, most of which are civilians, while other places seem very empty. Many houses are empty and seem to be reserved. Others are not allowed to approach near the military camp. The mansion of the city lord is also a forbidden area for ordinary people, but you can travel freely on the other side of the square.

The guards told them that the places they could not go to, and that they were in a forbidden area, and then placed them in a housing area.

Of course, it is not about allocating houses, it is a wealth belonging to Modo City.

Soon, people dressed as clerks came to register their names. The original families were still the same. They would be allocated food that could barely make a living every day, but if they wanted to eat something good, or wanted to own a house here and a family of their own, then they had to work. No one in this world can get it without work!

Everything in Modo City is built up by order.

There are many kinds of jobs.

Those who have craftsmanship can choose craftsmanship. Brickcraftsmen and blacksmiths have advantages in this regard. Women who know how to sew also have advantages. It doesn’t matter if they don’t have any craftsmanship. They can do coolies or farm land. They don’t get much money every day, and only ten coppers are worth ten, but they can use some grain as a reward. You can also not have coins and record the work in the fraction. These things called ‘work points’ can be used to exchange for houses and land.

Although he had just arrived here, George soon discovered that all the indigenous people here recorded their work points.

It seems that few people choose currency as reward!

land.

After hearing these two words, George's eyes instantly burned.

For the birth of civilians like him, nothing will attract them more than land. If you can obtain a piece of land, then your sister will have a lifelong support, at least you don’t have to worry about being hungry. You must obtain recognition from the city hall to get the land deed. All the land in Modo City belongs to the city lord. There are only two ways to buy it in private. One is to use the labor points obtained from labor, and after reaching a certain standard, you can pay a part in currency. The second is to use military merits in combat. After obtaining a certain amount of military merit, you can pay a part in currency.

You can’t buy the land here by just using money. I don’t know how many people in Modo Port outside want to buy a piece of land here but cannot!

Although this island is not small.

But the land belongs to our lord Soren. Although the Port of Modo is large in area, it is now almost divided by the Temple of Wealth, Ocean Temple and Chamber of Commerce.

The second phase of Modo Port was stuck in Sauron's hands, and no one could continue to expand the land without his orders!

There is a plain outside the city.

A large number of slaves had already dug through irrigation ditches and directly connected to the rivers in the island. The land that was reclaimed for the first time should have been relatively barren, but because of some magical "fertilizer", the harvest this year would look good. Now one-third of the land outside Modo City has become privately owned, and most of it has been exchanged for military merits and Jindler, and only a small part of it was exchanged for foremen, officials and ordinary civilians.

I heard that many pirates have been saving money recently, preparing to make up military merits and private money to make up dozens of acres of land.

If it was in the past.

This is definitely something that the pirates would never think of. The spoils they received and the rewards they received were either spent on tavern gambling or on **. I heard that it was a pirate named "Stephen". He first exchanged military merit for houses and land, and then took over his good looks outside. The scene of his wife and children accompanying him stimulated many old guys. Many pirates who were about thirty years old took out their savings and military merits to exchange land and houses. (Chapter "Stephen's Day".)

The military achievements of Modo City are very valuable!

There is a special clerk here responsible for counting military merits. Any military merit points can be directly exchanged for Jindler, but it seems that no one will do this yet. Military merits can be exchanged directly in the city hall, but it is not a human being responsible for crossing out military merits, but an iron golem. Its task is to count all changes in military merits.

The work points obtained by labor are very small, so soldiers may be able to change a house after a few battles, while ordinary people may need to work for two or three years.

George weighed his skills and felt that he might be able to earn some military merit.

I heard that the clerks are planning to change the recording method and prepare to exchange all work points for contribution points. This is to commend a person's contribution to Modo City. After reaching a certain level, they may be able to obtain the status of "honored citizens" and enjoy a higher status and convenience in many aspects. Modo City currently has no nobles, and even those pirate leaders cannot be considered nobles. His Excellency Sauron does not seem to have no intention of enfeoffing the nobles for the time being. The maintenance of the city is entirely subject to officials and the Council of the City Hall.

Officials are officials, but officials are not nobles.

In this strange but vibrant city, George saw too many novel but better systems!

The day passed.

George and the others were quickly settled down because they belonged to a family when they registered. George and his sister, and two other survivors from the same village were assigned to live in a house. The living environment was a bit small and crowded, but they were very satisfied with the current situation. The city hall allocated a little simple daily necessities, which could barely allow them to hold on for a while.

Modo City advocates that everything depends on your own hands to fight for!

So on the next day, George found a job for himself. Although he had good combat skills, he needed to join the army and had to have some assessments and had to make certain contributions in Modo City, so he planned to work as a coolie for a while. After all, he was also an advanced soldier, and his strength was much greater than other adult men. There was no problem in earning double food and work points for a day. He originally planned to let his sister take care of the children at home, but this stubborn woman refused. She learned the craftsmanship of tailoring and insisted on supporting herself.

Half-elf has some skills.

They are much more agile than other humans, and it is not difficult to find a job.

Modo City has too many tasks!

A large number of houses are still being expanded, a large number of daily necessities need to be made, a large number of building materials need to be transported, a large number of land need to be reclaimed, a large number of irrigation ditches need to be dug, etc.

Manpower is needed almost anywhere, and the demand for labor is stronger than that of any city.

George was looking for a job to carry wood.

Because this job is piece-based, you can get one work point by moving fifty logs a day. One work point can be exchanged for a pound of grain, which is enough for the whole family to eat.

"drink!"

George roared and held the logs as thick as an adult's waist on his shoulders with a backhand. The two of them carried one together. He relied on his strength and fought them quickly. A log weighed about three or four hundred pounds. If he hadn't been born with strong strength and had received training from warriors, he would probably not be able to handle it alone.

In just one morning, George carried sixty or seventy rounds. Although his physical fitness was a little too good to keep up in the afternoon, he had enough more than 120 pieces. The foreman in charge of the registration looked at him in surprise, then nodded to indicate that he could rest. He ate it at the construction site at noon and evening. The cheap black bread with fresh fish soup seemed to be eaten, and it tasted good anyway. For George, he was already very satisfied with being able to eat meat.

In the evening.

George exchanged a pound of food and then returned to his residence with a labor point.

"If you eat at the construction site every day, you can probably eat these grains for half a month. You should be able to get three labor points tomorrow, and one point can be exchanged for ten copper derricks. Maybe you can buy some fabrics for your sister's children the day after tomorrow."

George muttered as he walked, "What a novel way of counting."

Others in the crowded yard have returned.

Although they had been busy all day, the laughter of children could be heard everywhere in their ears. Most people chose to exchange labor points for food. Carrying the heavy food, they became much more at ease.

As long as you work hard, you can eat enough to support your family, and they can feel satisfied and happy in this way.

Because they don't ask for much!
