Chapter 174 Half-elf (4)

There are many types of jobs in Zhenbeicheng. When the sheriff counts the population, he has explained clearly the points earned by all the work.

Even if you don’t have any skills, you can still do a job selling hard work here. With various technologies, you can get corresponding work according to the level of the technology and then you can get corresponding points and money.

What surprised George was that when he was working, he could have a working meal here. Moreover, the working meal was much richer than the food distributed, including fish.

However, the points and money given by these jobs are not high. It takes a long time to rely on these jobs to obtain better housing and land. As for those jobs with high points, it is to become soldiers and participate in the battle.

Of course, there are also lucky people, and if they don’t participate in the battle, they also have the opportunity to get high points. The most famous person is a human, who is very lucky. He discovered an open-pit mineral. Then he reported the discovered minerals to the Lord, and he directly obtained a large area of ​​land and spacious houses. He was hired as a mineral consultant by the Lord, and directly counterattacked from a slave to become a territory official.

Of course, there is only one case of this kind of thing at present. The chances of relying on this kind of good luck to obtain houses and land are too small.

George has just grown up and is ready to become familiar with the environment and then try to sign up for the military.

There are many benefits of joining the army. As long as you pass the assessment and successfully join the army, you can directly obtain the status of a citizen. Here, the status of a citizen can bring higher status and convenience. The most obvious benefit is taxation. The tax of ordinary civilians is 30%, and the tax of citizens is 10% less than that of ordinary civilians.

The day passed quickly, and all the half-elves had been placed. George and his sister were allocated a house, and the city hall distributed some simple daily necessities, but of course there were not many things. If you want a better life, you need to work hard to get it yourself.

Early the next morning, George went out to find a suitable job for himself. Because he was not familiar with this place, he planned to find a job to adapt. As half-elves, they were naturally more agile and agile than humans. After observation, he decided to find a job as a bricklayer.

The job received a little more points and money than the average job. Originally, he wanted his sister to take care of the children at home, but her sister refused and she found a job as a tailor.

Zhenbeicheng is underway for large-scale construction, and manpower is needed everywhere, and the demand for labor is extremely strong. George easily found a job as a bricklayer.

This job is piece-based. If you build three walls a day, you can get three work points and 30 copper coins. 10 copper coins can be exchanged for two pounds of food, which is enough for their family to eat.

George was quick to build walls and was very fast, and he built walls quickly and well with his flexible hands and feet. The foreman in charge of records was very satisfied with him.

The food at noon was made of potatoes and dried salted fish, which was enough for an adult to eat. Although the taste was average, it was already very satisfying to eat these foods in the Northland Wasteland.

Time always passes quickly at work. In the blink of an eye, it was already evening. George exchanged enough food and then returned to his residence with the remaining money and food.

Others in the yard have returned, and most people choose to exchange points for food. The children do not have the worries of adults, and soon there are joyful sounds in the surrounding yard.

As night fell, there were not many entertainment activities in this era, and many people had already rested early. A hustle and bustle came from the yard next door. George glanced at his sleeping sister, and then went out quietly. He moved his muscles and planned to go over and take a look.

Zhenbeicheng implements a curfew, but you can move around at will in the Lifang where you live.

"Kain, congratulations on joining the army through the assessment. I heard that the army is treated very well."

"It's OK. The allocated houses are larger than ordinary houses, and the food is much better in other aspects."

"Congratulations."

"Come and have a drink."

"I wish you to become a general as soon as possible."

"Thank you for your good words."

...

George saw a table in the yard with wine, meat and various daily necessities, which were much richer than at home. After listening for a while, George understood what happened.

Kane is an experienced ranger with very good strength. He also has an animal partner. After signing up for the army today, he successfully passed the assessment and became a formal soldier. Then he was directly assigned a house and received a resettlement fee. Today he came here to drink and the old guys said goodbye.

Tomorrow he will move to an independent courtyard specially prepared for soldiers to live in. His status is much higher than that of the people here. It will probably not take long to exchange contributions for a piece of land of 10 acres.

In Zhenbeicheng, you can become a civilian in Zhenbeicheng as long as you purchase land. However, civilians do not have any rights here and need to pay 30% of taxes every year. After becoming citizens, the taxes will be reduced by 10% and 20% will be handed over, and you can leave 80% of them.

Moreover, after becoming a citizen, you have the right to participate in official training. After passing the study and training, you can become an official.

Soldier George couldn't help but show a hint of envy on his face. Sure enough, a capable person can gain a foothold anywhere.

From the chats between these people, George knew that there seemed to be many people like Kane, such as Rangers and archers, who were recruited. After successfully passing, they would be placed in a new yard. In addition to joining the army, there were also special care for some people with special skills.

Some blacksmith skills that they knew were sent to work in blacksmith shops. Some people who knew the text were assigned to study in the city hall. It is said that they had the opportunity to become employees of the city hall. Because of their skills, these people have obtained a better living environment.

People quickly dispersed, after all, they had been working hard for a day and many were already exhausted. Seeing these people disperse, George also left.

After resting for one night, George rushed to work in high spirits just as dawn on the second day. Now he is full of hope for life. The city hall has very few daily necessities, and he needs to work hard in exchange for more daily necessities.

A week passed in a blink of an eye.

The house where George lives has changed a lot. All kinds of daily necessities have been purchased, and the thing he wants to do most now is to own a house of his own. However, relying solely on the job of a bricklayer, it is difficult to own a house. He plans to register in the army, pass the assessment and join the army.

On that day, George went to buy some wine and meat, then found Kane and asked him about martial arts skills. George wanted to become a ranger and join the army to get better treatment and status.

Although Zhenbeicheng doesn't look big, it is full of hope and full of vitality.

......

In a blink of an eye, February was already in the morning, and spring plowing in Zhenbeicheng began. When it was time to cultivate, the half-elves discovered that the land here in Zhenbeicheng was obviously different from the wasteland, and the two druids were even more surprised and couldn't stop.

You should know that the agricultural technology of their entire half-elves tribe is very high, but even so, it requires the power of druids to ensure a bumper harvest of food every year. However, without their druids casting spells here, all the land is very fertile.

After learning that all this was the effect of the Harvest Altar, the druids almost fell out. They were full of curiosity about the Harvest Altar and wanted to go up and check it out. However, Sulun directly refused them. Now no one except him is allowed to go up to the Harvest Altar.

A large number of people were arranged to farm, and Sulun selected several refugees with full loyalty from the territory to produce and train farm fertilizers.

At the same time, it also began to make more land outside Zhenbei City. The land outside Zhenbei City was divided into three types according to fertility. He began to allocate land to the soldiers again. According to the rules and regulations, the soldiers could allocate another ten acres. Adding the previous land was twenty acres per person. Of course, if you want more land, you need to exchange military merits and money. The upper limit is 100 acres of land.

The officials of the territory can also exchange land, with the same number as soldiers, and the heroes under Sulun also allocated land, ranging from 100 acres to 500 acres. Sulun did not give them a heavy reward from the beginning, after all, they will have to face many enemies in the future. If they receive too much at one time, it will cause difficulties in rewarding them in the future.

After farming, the irrigation facilities in the territory also began to speed up the construction. Last year, because the land reclaimed in Zhenbeicheng was on both sides of the river, it was very convenient to obtain water, and there was basically not much irrigation project. However, after more land was reclaimed this year, the irrigation equipment needed to keep up.

It is also a big water truck, but the irrigation ditch does not need to be built very high this time.

The newly reclaimed land is first planted with potatoes and beets. Both of these foods are generally high-yield and the fertilizer is lower. Some are food, and the other is the raw materials for white sugar.

Now the sugar trade has become an important pillar of Zhenbeicheng. In order to avoid insufficient raw materials, it is becoming increasingly difficult to collect beets in the wild. Now, increasing the cultivation of beets is naturally the best result.

Next, Su Lun commanded more than 3,000 slaves to start reclaiming the land. After a week, under the hard work of three thousand slaves, the irrigation system of the territory began to take shape.

Digging trenches, leveling the land, and then digging water to irrigate. They are already familiar with the construction of large water trucks. After using the power of large water trucks to raise the water source to a certain height, they then pour the water down. The river water along the excavated ditches, guiding the water to various farmlands.
