Chapter 485: A Day in Modo

Modo City.

When entering this city, many people couldn't help showing a look of surprise on their faces.

It's not that everything in front of them is shocking, but what they see in their eyes is too neat.Smooth and clean roads, with well dug drains on both sides, and vacant land beside them, some of which have been planted with flowers and plants.Although this city is not as big as the Fallen City, the road is actually wider than the Fallen City. It seems that it has only recently split into two roads from the middle.From this point of view, we can feel that the owner of this city has made arrangements.

Spacious roads, clean ground, neat houses.

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

Maybe the sailors are right!

My lord Sauron is really obsessed with cleanliness and has strict requirements for order. It is said that he will urinate and defecate anywhere in Modo Port. If he is caught, he will not only be fined but also hang up!Otherwise, the habit of booing in a dark corner from other places will not be forced to change so quickly.

No matter what people of this age think!

Sauron would never allow anyone in his city to urinate and urinate anywhere. He built so many public toilets, if he dared to urinate and urinate anywhere, he would even cut the tools for committing crimes.

The neat and spacious roads are lined with rows of brick houses.

Some of them have already been taken over. The area of ​​each brick house is not too big, only about two rooms, but the layout is quite reasonable. There is a two-meter-long piece of land in front of the house to grow something.There are more people living in the south of the city. Most of them are civilians. Other places are very empty. Many houses are empty and seem to be reserved places.No other people are allowed near the barracks. The city lord’s mansion is also a restricted area for ordinary people, but you can come and go freely on the square.

The guards were telling them that they were not allowed to go, and those places were restricted areas, and then they were placed in a house.

Naturally, it is not the distribution of houses, this is the wealth of Modo City.

Soon someone dressed as a clerk came to register their names. The original family is still the same. They will be allocated food that can barely make ends meet every day, but if they want to eat something good, or want to have one here A house, a family of your own.Then they have to work, no one in this world can get something for nothing!

Everything in Modo City is established in order.

There are many kinds of jobs.

Those who have craftsmanship can choose craftsmanship. Bricklayers, craftsmen and blacksmiths have advantages in this regard. Women who can sew crafts also have advantages. It doesn't matter if they don't have any craftsmanship themselves, they can do coolies or cultivate land as farmers.The money earned by working hard every day is not much, the highest is only ten copper dellers, but some food will be used as compensation.It is also possible to record the number of work points without coins. These things called'work points' can be used to exchange houses and land.

Although he had just arrived here, George soon discovered that all the aborigines here were recording work points.

It seems that few people choose currency as compensation!

land.

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

For the birth of civilians like him, nothing will attract them more than land. If a piece of land is available, then the sister will have to rely on for the rest of her life, at least not worrying about being hungry.Obtaining the title deed must be recognized by the city hall. All the land in Modo City belongs to the lord of the city. There are only two ways for private individuals to buy it. One is to buy with the work points obtained by labor. After reaching a certain standard, you can use currency to pay a part.The second is to use combat military merit to purchase, after obtaining certain military merit, you can use currency to pay part of it.

You can't buy the land here with money alone. I don't know how many people want to buy a piece of land here in Modo Port!

Although this island is not small.

However, all the land belongs to my lord Sauron. Although Modo Port is large in size, it is now almost divided by the Fortune Temple, the Ocean Temple and the Chamber of Commerce.

The development of the second phase of Modo Harbor 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 have already dug through irrigation ditches and directly connected to the rivers in the island. The land that was first cultivated should be relatively poor, but because of some kind of magical fertilizer, this year’s harvest seems to be not bad.Today, one-third of the land outside Modo City has become privately owned. Most of them have been exchanged for military service and Kindler. Only a few have been exchanged by foremen, officials and ordinary civilians. .

I heard that many pirates are saving money recently and are preparing to pool together military exploits and private money to get dozens of acres of land.

If it was in the past.

This is definitely something that pirates would never even think about. The spoils they got, the rewards they got, were either spent on gambling in the tavern or spent on sex.I heard that it was started by a pirate named'Steven'. He first exchanged his military exploits for houses and land, and then took his good friends outside. The scene with his wife and children stimulated many old guys, and many of them have reached their age. Pirates in their thirties have used their savings and military merits to exchange land and houses.(Chapter "Stephen's Day".)

The military merits of Modo City are very valuable!

There are special clerks here who are responsible for counting military merits. Any military merit points can be directly exchanged for Kindler, but it seems that no one has done this yet.Military merit can be redeemed directly in the city hall, but it is not human beings who are responsible for crossing out military merit, but a steel golem whose task is to count all military merit changes.

The number of work points earned by labor is very small, so a soldier may be able to change a house in a few battles, while ordinary people may need to work for two to three years.

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

I heard that the clerks are planning to change the recording method and are preparing to replace all the work points with contribution points. This is to commend a person for his contribution to Modo City. After reaching a certain level, it is possible to obtain the status of an'honorary citizen' , Enjoy a higher status and convenience in many aspects.There are currently no nobles in Modo City, and even those pirate chiefs cannot be regarded as nobles. His Excellency Sauron seems to have no plans to entrust nobles for the time being. The maintenance of this city is entirely the responsibility of officials and the city council.

Officials are officials, but officials are not nobles.

In this unfamiliar but full of vitality, George saw too many novel but better systems!

One day passed.

George and the others were quickly settled down because they belonged to the same family at the time of registration. George, his sister, and two other survivors from the same village were assigned to live in a house.The living environment is a bit cramped and cramped, but for them now, they are very satisfied. The city hall has allocated some simple daily necessities to barely support them for a period of time.

Modo City advocates relying on their own hands to fight for everything!

So on the second day, George got a job for himself. Although he has good fighting skills, he needs to be assessed to join the army, and he needs to have a certain contribution in Modo City, so he plans to work for a while.After all, he is also an advanced fighter, and his strength is much greater than other adult men. There is no problem in earning double the food and work points for a day's work.Originally, he planned to let his sister take care of the child at home, but this stubborn woman refused. She had learned the craft of a tailor and insisted on supporting herself.

Half-elves are somewhat crafty.

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

There are too many tasks in Modo City!

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

Manpower is needed almost everywhere, and the demand for labor is stronger than in any city.

George's job was to move wood.

Because this job is piece-based, one work point can be earned by moving fifty logs a day, and one work point can be exchanged for a pound of grain, enough to feed the whole family.

"drink!"

With a low growl, George backhanded the thin logs of the adult waist against his shoulders. The other two people carried one in partnership, and he relied on his strength to resist quickly.A log weighs about three to four hundred pounds. If it weren't for his natural strength and training as a soldier, it would be difficult for a person to handle it.

In just one morning, George carried sixty to seventy rounds. Although his physical fitness was a little bit unable to keep up in the afternoon, he had enough for more than one hundred and twenty pieces.The foreman in charge of the registration gave him a surprised look, and then nodded to indicate that he could rest.I ate it at the construction site at noon and evening. The cheap black bread and fresh fish broth seemed to be shark meat, but it tasted good anyway.For George, eating meat is already very satisfying.

at dusk.

George exchanged a pound of grain, and then returned to his residence with one work point.

"If you eat at the construction site every day, save a little and estimate that the food can be eaten for half a month. Tomorrow you should be able to get three work points, and one point can be exchanged for ten copper dele. Maybe the day after tomorrow you can buy some fabric for your sister’s child. make clothes."

George muttered as he walked, "It's a novel way of counting."

The others in the crowded courtyard have returned.

Although they have been busy all day, the laughter of children can be heard everywhere in their ears. Most people have chosen to exchange their work points for food, and they have become more at ease with the heavy food.

As long as they work hard, they can have a full stomach and support their families, and they can feel satisfied and happy in such a life.

Because they really don't ask for much!
