The tall wooden fence is half the livestock grazing area, and the other half is the farmland area. There are two connected sturdy houses on the farm, both of which are European-style farm houses with stone as the cornerstone and wood as the beams.One is a residence and the other is a grain warehouse. In the distance from the house are sheds for livestock and poultry.
Apart from the absence of any animals and crops, this is already a perfect farm.
Next, I saw Donald walking to the wasteland on the left side of the manor, waved his hand again, and another human farm with an area of 20 acres appeared there again out of thin air. Right next to the first built farm, Donald built three farms in a row before stopping.
Although there is still open space to build two farms at the rear, the wood and stone materials have been almost consumed, so Donald can only build the basic area in front of him first, and build the others one after another in the future.
If anyone saw this just now, they would have shouted a miracle, but Donald is now crying out for the cost of building the farm.
Although there are basic materials, the energy consumption has been reduced by 80%, but the construction area of the farm is not small, and the remaining consumption has also used a lot of reserve spar in an instant.
"These are all diamond-like elemental spar! This is only a building unit with the lowest demand. Wouldn't those larger buildings such as barracks and towns eat up the wealth I finally accumulated?"
A lot of spar just like the water to spend. But seeing the farm that appeared in front of him in an instant, Donald felt it was worth it.
Of course, you can use materials to replace some of the elemental crystals. Naturally, you can also prepare your own materials, and then summon a sufficient number of human labor and farmers to build the farm. However, although he can afford the low-level Warcraft crystal cores consumed in this way, the speed Far from being comparable now.
Real farmers build farms and other buildings, but they are not as quick and convenient as in the game, and everything must conform to the basic laws of this world.
Around the center of the manor, after the establishment of the four farms, Donald built four towers on the edge of the manor.
This kind of reconnaissance tower with a height of fifteen meters and a diameter of eight meters at the thickest part is the cheapest building among the four races of Warcraft. With a sufficient supply of stone materials, for such a tall building, each tower only consumes about five squares of low-level element spar, which is lower than the price of the small guardian ring in Donald's hand!
"With the existence of these four outposts, the security of the manor will be greatly guaranteed in the future."
"Although the primary sentry tower has no attack ability in the game or in reality, if it is not upgraded, it can only be used as a reconnaissance building unit. But in this real world, most situations can be changed, just need to be placed on it. A few archers can turn the sentry tower into a temporary arrow tower, and when the energy reserve is insufficient, there is no need to spend resources on upgrading and reconstruction."
Of course, such a fake arrow tower is difficult to compare with the real arrow tower with a crossbow machine, but judging from the fact that he only has this remote and small manor, Donald does not think that there will be any powerful enemies coming to capture this place. . So just get a few sentry towers that cost the least resources and use them for reconnaissance.
"It's a pity that the small manor is not big enough to build six farms at most. The land in the middle has to be reserved for the construction of villas. Fortunately, when the small manor develops, we can plan that vast large manor!"
After doing this, Donald returned to his home in Hongfeng Town and instructed the housekeeper to reduce the order for some building materials.
"The farm of the manor has been built, and the wood and stone materials will continue to be purchased, but the other materials will be put away for the time being, until the architect is ready to design and build the villa!"
"Really, Master?"
Cod, who got an affirmative answer, looked surprised and praised.
"The power of the mage is really amazing. Now we should need to hire a few farmers to take care of the manor, and we also need to prepare to buy a batch of livestock, poultry and crop seeds!"
Donald nodded and said:
"Yes, while the spring is not over, we will vigorously develop this manor and strive to usher in the first harvest before the autumn harvest!"
Although Ke De has been idle for more than ten years, he is undoubtedly very competent as a housekeeper. First, they contacted the architect of a chamber of commerce, and at the same time hired enough workers, and then hired three farmers among the commoners nearby, adding up to a total of eleven working adults. It also includes Donald's coachman family, which is now a farmer belonging to the Melina family's estate.
The reason why these three families abandoned their original livelihoods and went to work in the Melina family's manor was because the conditions given by Donald were twice those of other nobles. He asked the housekeeper to promise that in addition to the fixed cost of food and lodging, each farmer could get 10% of the products they planted and farmed, which was at least twice as much as their original wages, and with such encouragement, Farmers will be very motivated to work!
Looking at the excited appearance of the three families, the housekeeper Cod asked on the side:
"Master! Are your conditions too high?"
"Of course it's not high. You have to know that only if you make them feel that they are working for themselves, will they be willing to work and have great expectations for the harvest, so that the manor can develop as soon as possible!"
Based on his previous life experience, Donald knew that if he wanted the horse to run fast and not eat grass, this kind of greedy and stingy thought was unacceptable!
After explaining this reason to the housekeeper, Ke De admired his young master's kindness and wisdom very much. If he could come up with such favorable conditions, and farmers work hard for their own interests, the future production of the manor will definitely be better than others. There are many more nobles.
Three days later, Donald came to the manor again with his butler, attendants, and several farmers who were employed by the Melina family. The butler, Cod, was stunned by the brand-new manor in front of him on the spot!
These sturdy and delicate fences, neat and imposing farms and houses, seem to have been built overnight. There weren't so many buildings when he came last time!
"What a rich manor? Look at these farms, it's a gift from the gods!"
"Thank you Goddess, thank you Master Master!"
Except for the driver, the other people have never been to the manor, so naturally they are not surprised. They are all in awe of the fertile beauty and prosperity of the estate where they will work in the future.
As for the driver, he has learned not to be alarmed since he was with Donald. His employer is a mysterious and powerful mage, what else is impossible? In the minds of ordinary people, mages are either evil human beings similar to devils, or they are powerful beings second only to gods!
Seeing that the driver didn't say anything nonsense, Donald was satisfied. Naturally, his butler would not betray him, and the outsider, the coachman, would not necessarily be, but it seemed that he was trustworthy at present.
Donald turned to face the crowd and said:
"Before the end of spring, I plan to plant all the crops on the farm first, and take good care of the livestock. When the harvest comes in autumn, it will bring in at least a thousand gold sols. The investment in the initial construction will soon be enough. Get it back and break even!"
"Yes, sir!" "We must work hard!"
Under the leadership of the housekeeper, more than a dozen energetic farmers pulled several carts of livestock and crop seeds to the farm for placement. Since only three families are currently employed, the housekeeper assigned them to a large house on a farm. The large house on the farm has a lot of space, just enough to accommodate their three families.
There are still three farms vacant, and Donald has no plans for this for the time being. Eleven laborers are almost enough for this small manor that has just been developed.
Because the houses on the farm were vacant, when the villa was not ready, Donald chose one of them as a temporary residence for him and the housekeeper in the manor.
When I walked into the room that I embodied, I saw that except for no furniture, the basic facilities were all available.
"The houses on this farm are larger than those in the town. We will live here temporarily from today, which is also convenient for the management of the manor and farm!"
Donald turned around and told the butler.
"I don't plan to continue living in the residence of Hongfeng Town. After all, it is the territory of other nobles. It's better to keep it as a contact point! Ke De, you have been working hard these two days. Bring people to move all the things in the house. Come on! When the villa is built in a few months, it will really look like an aristocratic manor!"
The housekeeper Cod got an order and excitedly went to organize the manpower to move the house.
Two days later, the manor was basically settled. After the farmers were busy, Donald took the hired architect to the survey terrain. Before arriving at the reserved villa location, he pointed to the open space. said:
"The construction of the manor villa can be done slowly, but it must be strong and durable, and no mistakes should be made. This point will trouble Mr. Doner a lot!"
"Master Mage, please rest assured that the area of this villa is not small, but it is nothing compared to the entire manor. As long as the design drawings are confirmed, it is estimated that the project will be generally completed within three months!"
The housekeeper Ke De hired an architectural designer from a branch of a chamber of commerce in the capital city located in the Boulder City. This designer is a scholar who seems to be around fifty. In general, architects, accountants and other occupations are all knowledgeable scholars. in charge.
The reason why the occupations are different is because the academics focus on different aspects of knowledge.
As for the scholars, most of them were non-heirs from noble families, and they had to be skilled in order to gain a foothold in this world and continue to live a noble life.
The Donner scholar didn't pay much attention to Donald's status as a small nobleman. After all, he had seen too many nobles in the capital. But Donald's status as a seventeen-year-old official mage had to make him lower his stature. In this world, people generally believe that if there is anyone who is more knowledgeable than scholars, it is only the mage group of spellcasters.
Moreover, unlike scholars who only assist management-oriented talents, even research-oriented mages who are not good at combat have powerful powers that ordinary people cannot imagine. Such mysterious powers are awe-inspiring to ordinary people.
In the face of such a strong man, Dona decided to try his best to complete his work well, so after surveying the terrain, he temporarily decided to live on the farm to facilitate the design and construction of the villa.
After a whole night of hard work by Dona Scholars, the preliminary design sketches of the villa were completed.
After getting the drawings, Donald was quite satisfied with the architectural appearance of the villa. The Doner scholar adopted the architectural style of Sauron, the commercial alliance country in the southern part of the continent with the most developed business in the world.
Zoro is a beautiful kingdom, famous not only for her economic strength, but also for his numerous tropical holiday estates, sunny beaches and many delicious fruits rarely seen in the north.
After many years of development, the buildings in Sauron Holiday Manor have combined the advantages of the architectural styles of the mainland countries, forming the architectural style of the most beautiful noble villas that are now recognized.
Although the construction cost is at least 30% higher than the ordinary Northland style, Donald thinks it is worth it when he imagines the effect after completion.
In Donald's view, this architectural style is very similar to the seaside villas in the tropical regions of the previous life, and the functions are mostly concentrated on ventilation and moisture resistance. In this regard, he put forward his own opinions, and asked Donner scholars to make some changes in the design sketches, removing some gorgeous and useless decorations, strengthening the overall structure, and adding some European-style arrangements in previous lives.
And Donald had Donner Scholars widen and deepen the foundation of the villa at least five times. It doesn't matter if you spend more, this is all for the stability of the overall building, as well as leaving enough space for the basement and his future alchemy laboratory.
Since you want to build a villa, you should try to build it as perfect as possible. Although all kinds of houses in this world look very classical in appearance, they are not as comfortable as the bungalows in the rural areas of the previous life. So Donald couldn't help but bring things from his previous life into this world.
Then Donald put forward some of his own requirements on the internal structure, nothing more than the space reserved for the water system, indoor bathroom, and the necessary facilities of the previous villa such as the swimming pool, garage, cold storage and basement.
For some designs that are too advanced in this world, Donald does not intend to spread them out, so as not to attract the attention of those who care. So he didn't indicate in the blueprint what those blank spaces he left were actually doing. It also plans to hire workers from different chambers of commerce to complete the construction of these facilities, so as not to leak the situation of the villa.
That's it. There are many blank design drawings. Donald has also signed a contract with the Chamber of Commerce and the architect, and has notarized it at the temple and the noble council management office, indicating that some design concepts in his villa cannot be transmitted by the employer. while appearing on other buildings.
This can be considered a patent right in another world in disguise!
The Donner scholar was very obsessed with some of Donald's ideas from another world, but when he thought of that contract, he couldn't help but itch with hatred.
A few days passed quickly, and the three farmers were responsible for managing the three farms, and took care of everything inside well. The crops have started to be sown in the early stages, and the livestock have also been scaled up.
The design drawing of the main body of the villa also came out, in which Donald pointed out several omissions and unsatisfactory places, and then officially established this drawing, and ordered the workers brought by Donner to start the construction.
