"This island is very quiet, without any human habitation. It seems that Brother Ye is the first city lord to come to this Aolai Islands!"
"We can choose any spiritual island and build our own fairy village! We have to choose the best one!"
On the deck of the pirate ship, everyone stood excitedly on the side of the ship, looking at a group of islands in the distance.
On the blue sea, the spiritual islands are green and lush, shrouded in a thin sea mist, looming.
The pirate ship speeds up its voyage.
Ye Mo looked at the island in front of him, with a look of anticipation in his eyes.
In terms of flight distance, Qingyun Zhuxian City is the closest Zhuxian City to the Aolai Islands, and the flight from Donglaixian Village should be even shorter than the flight from Qingyun Zhuxian City.
The remaining nine new city lords of Qingyun Immortal Academy are all descendants of aristocratic families in Qingyun Immortal City. They need to bring some supplies from Qingyun Immortal City by sea ship.
In other words, he should be the first new city lord to arrive here.
"Chang Fei, since we are here early anyway, let's spend some time choosing a good spiritual island and wandering around this archipelago!"
Ye Mo said enthusiastically.
"Yes, City Lord!"
Chang Feidao ordered the sailors on the ship to change direction and start sailing around the islands.
This archipelago is so huge that there are as many as a thousand small spiritual islands with a radius of tens of thousands of miles. Even if it takes several months or a year, it is impossible to visit all the islands.
Naturally, it is impossible for Ye Mo to spend such a long time selecting an island. In a short time, other new city lords will arrive and seize the spiritual island.
Ye Mo spent seven or eight days roughly looking at dozens of islands, large and small, in the sea covering thousands of miles, and selected the best island.
Spirit wood is the first resource needed to build a fairy village. Not to mention the spirit wood city wall, elixir refining, and weapon refining, which require a lot of consumption. Even the residents on the island need a lot of wood to make pots for cooking. Moreover, the growth cycle of spirit wood is very long.
It grows slowly, taking decades or hundreds of years to grow.
There are not a lot of trees on the island, so it is not suitable for building a village.
As for resources such as spiritual mineral deposits, they cannot be found in a short while. Even if you dig around for months or years, you may not be able to find them. This is something that can only be encountered but not sought.
Ye Mo chose the main island, and his first choice resource was spiritual wood. Then he needed a large area of land on the island, which could be cultivated into spiritual fields in the future and supplied to the villagers of the Fairy Village.
He and everyone took a boat to an island with the best spiritual wood resources.
"The island in front of us is huge and looks great! And the forest trees on the island are much more lush than other islands!"
Ye Mo immediately felt good. This island looked suitable for building a fairy village.
"Chang Fei, go around the island and find a suitable place to anchor!"
Ye Mo ordered Chang Fei beside him.
"Yes, I understand!"
Chang Fei's face showed excitement. He also made a preliminary judgment and felt that this island was very suitable.
The pirate ship made a large circle around the ten-mile area outside the island and looked at the entire island.
Everyone was on the deck watching the island.
"City Lord, this island is more than fifty miles long from north to south, and more than forty miles wide from east to west. There are several peaks on the island, and there are many spiritual trees. There is a flat land of twenty to thirty miles in the middle of the island, which is very suitable for reclamation into spiritual fields. In the future, the villagers
We can farm. There is a natural deep-water port suitable for shipyards and docks. This island should be the best one among the dozens of islands we have seen!"
Chang Fei synthesized everyone's observation results and reported to Ye Mo.
"Okay, choose a suitable place and let the ship dock!"
Although Ye Mo looked calm, his voice still revealed excitement.
The sea-going ship sails to a natural deep-water port, parks the ship directly on the shore, and sets up wooden boards several feet long so that people can go ashore directly.
"The area around the port is too flat, which is not conducive to defense! If you build a village in the early stage, you cannot build it near the port. Later, if you have a firm foothold, you can extend the fairy village here!"
Ye Mo looked at the terrain around the port and showed a bit of regret.
This area appears relatively flat and is suitable for building a fairy village, just like Donglai Fairy Village, which is built directly near the port.
But he was here to open up wasteland. In order to deal with the unknown tide of sea beasts, the initial stronghold naturally could not be built on a flat and undefeable place.
"I, Ye Mo, hereby announce that this island is named Ye's Spiritual Island! Ye's Fairy Village will be established on this island. Everyone listens to the order and is ready to land on the island and build a fairy village!"
Ye Mo stood on the ship and said loudly.
Time is very tight, it took him two months to arrive here, and other city lords will arrive in Aolai Sea within three months. He needs to build the Lingdao Fairy Village before other large numbers of new city lords arrive, so as to get the first move.
Competitive advantage.
"Walk!"
"Go to the island and build a village!"
Waves of cheers came from the people on the boat.
That night, except for a small number of sailors who stayed behind to guard the ship, Ye Mo took all the rest of his subordinates to stay on the island.
Ye Mo's subordinates are quite complicated. There are more than a hundred monks and warriors in total.
Ye Mo, Mo Ling, Wang Hu, Yang You and others, plus Lin Zhi and his more than ten followers, and Gao Jian's group of more than ten people, are people from all over the Kyushu Continent who come to seek immortals.
The remaining dozens of people were captured warriors deceived by Feng Xiongchang, as well as Chang Fei, dozens of sailors, and more than a dozen old pirates on the ship.
This is the entire team of Ye Mo. Compared with the other nine children of Qingyun Immortal Academy who have family support, they are insignificant.
Ye Mo was already very satisfied.
He even planned to train these people into monks and then use them as the backbone to build his own fairy village.
Of course, the implementation of this plan will also take a long time.
Everyone was busy on the island for a day, drawing the topographic map of the entire Ye Shiling Island.
Ye Mo summoned Lin Zhi, Chang Fei, and Gao Jian, whom he relied on most, and gathered around a rough terrain map to discuss the location of the Immortal Village.
Finally, Ye Mo drew a circle somewhere on the map.
"Here, build an inner city!"
Ye Mo said in a deep voice, "This is the junction of flat land and mountains and forests. It can be attacked or defended."
"This valley has a radius of two miles. There is a pool formed by an underground spring. It is also the birthplace of the only mountain stream on the island. If we stay in this place, we will not be short of water."
"Of course, as a true fairy village, this valley is still too small and a little cramped. However, this is just our initial inner city. Once we have a stable inner city, we will build an outer city and continue to expand.
It extends towards the deep-water port. As the inner city, the valley is the safest place.”
No one had any objections.
They had already discussed a lot about where to build the fairy village on the island, and were just waiting for Ye Mo to make a decision.
As for how to build a fairy village, it's even simpler.
Just follow the fairy village design drawings.
Ye Mo assigned tasks to everyone, the most important of which was cutting down spiritual trees.
What was built this time was not the kind of temporary camp that was dozens of feet in size.
It is a true fairy village that covers an area of several miles and requires a huge amount of spiritual trees. Most of the monks and most of the warriors have been assigned to this matter.
Mo Ling selected a few people to collect wild spiritual grass on the island, measure the number of suitable spiritual fields on the island, and prepare for large-scale reclamation in the future.
She specialized in cultivating spiritual fields in the celestial monastery and became a leader in this field without hesitation.
Lin Zhi also took several of his followers to search around the spirit island, looking for suitable poisonous herbs to prepare for the construction of a poison mill.
On Ye's Spiritual Island, the monks and warriors began to cut down the spiritual trees, and began to build the city wall of the fairy village, as well as the city lord's palace and housing.
Wang Hu and Yang You are responsible for supervising the construction of the entire fairy village.
Gao Jian formed the first guard of Ye's Fairy Village and began to protect the safety of the Fairy Village.
More than ten days later, the city wall of Ye's Fairy Village has not yet been completed, but a simple city lord's mansion has been built.
In the hall, the core members of Xiancun gathered.
"The island is full of spiritual energy, and there are many places suitable for planting. They are mainly distributed in three gentle areas in the center of the island. If they are all cultivated, the number of spiritual fields will exceed 10,000 hectares!
The spiritual grain is harvested once a year, which is a huge wealth! One acre of spiritual land can produce thirty kilograms of spiritual grain a year. The selling price of one kilogram of spiritual grain is one spiritual stone. This is the wealth of thirty spiritual stones.
. Tens of thousands of hectares of spiritual land have grown in size.
In addition, the soil quality in other hilly areas is poor and is not suitable for planting spiritual grains. However, if you plant spiritual medicine, it should not be a problem."
Mo Ling drew three larger circles on the map of Ye's Ling Island, and made many scattered marks in other places, looking very excited.
There are many spiritual fields, which means that enough spiritual grains can be grown here to feed a large number of monks and ordinary warriors.
"Creating spiritual fields is extremely labor-intensive and requires a large number of Qi-training monks who know the Spiritual Rain Technique. One Qi-training monk can take care of at most one or twenty acres of spiritual fields. Harvesting can only be done after a year, which means it takes up to a year.
No output from the investment.
With our current manpower, how many acres of land can we cultivate? With our financial resources, can we survive until a year later?
We need a stable environment and may not be able to implement it in the short term. If a wave of monsters breaks out at any time, all the spiritual fields outside the village will be destroyed!
We don’t have many manpower, so we definitely can’t use it for this.”
Lin Zhi struck mercilessly.
"Then we have to think about the long term!"
Mo Ling glared at him openly and wanted to refute.
"Lin Zhi is right! The main thing now is to build the fairy village and improve its defense. The spiritual fields are all outside the village, and there is a lack of manpower to protect them. We can only wait for the fairy village to stabilize and then start slowly to open up the spiritual fields.
The matter of reclamation cannot be rushed. After the fairy village is stabilized and attracts more monks and warriors, the spiritual fields on the island must be reclaimed. There is no doubt about this!
Mo Ling, your latest mission is to collect all kinds of elixirs on the island, especially seeds. You can definitely find some good elixirs on this wild island. Then, first set aside five hundred acres in this valley fairy village.
The spiritual field is prepared to be used to grow elixirs and spiritual grains in the future. The elixirs are precious and can only be planted in the village.
Lin Zhi, your poisonous herbs are also planted in Fairy Village. This land is not much, a few dozen acres should be enough for the time being."
Ye Mo waved his hand to stop the argument. After a few words of relief, he gave instructions.
This valley is not big, only two miles in size, with a total of 1,500 acres of land. Five hundred acres of spiritual fields are divided from it, which will occupy one-third of the land. Other buildings, streets, trade pavilions, and alchemy refining
The utensil workshops and private houses where monks and warriors live will definitely be reduced.
During the Qi-training period, monks are well-paid in Xiancun, and their residences are single-family houses with lofts, which consumes a lot of land.
Lin Zhi wanted to speak but stopped.
However, he also knows that the only place on the island that can ensure safety now is this valley. He can't let Mo Ling grow elixirs outside. Moreover, his Poison Pill Factory also needs to grow poisonous elixirs, which are also planted in
Within the village.
When the scale of the fairy village is expanded and the outer city outside the valley is built, the land for Ye's fairy village will be ample.
"Okay, I will determine the location of the spiritual field as soon as possible without affecting the fairy village planning."
Only then did Mo Ling laugh with satisfaction, and even glared at Lin Zhi provocatively.
