Chapter 20: Negotiating to Enter the Mountain
The sun was scorching and the ground was also full of heat. Nord walked around the venue and found that there were still some problems that needed to be improved.
First of all, although the villagers are enthusiastic, they are actually not efficient and do not put their strength together. They do their own things, or rely on their usual tacit understanding to do some simple cooperation. Moreover, the villagers have never built such a large project together.
In the eyes of Abel and Nord, a manor that is a simple one is already a big project in the eyes of the villagers. Usually, building a house in the village is just for the help of relatives and friends. It is the first time for the villagers to use the whole village to build a manor like now.
So the scene inevitably looked a little messy, so Nord turned around and looked at Colin.
"It is better to divide the villagers into several teams, and each team selects a team leader who is experienced or prestige who can lead the crowd, and then assign them different jobs to work in an orderly manner under the leadership of the team leader."
Nord really couldn't stand such a messy scene. Although the villagers were enthusiastic, after entering the construction site and observing carefully, he still couldn't help but make suggestions to Colin.
Colin's eyes revealed confusion, and he felt that what you said was reasonable, but I didn't understand a word. He used facial expressions to express what you meant to say carefully.
Nord was a little helpless, so he carefully talked to Colin about modern knowledge of division of labor and cooperation and overall planning. Of course, it was just some simple knowledge, and he told Colin in easy-to-understand language. Moreover, too professional knowledge may not be able to be explained.
With Nord's explanation and help, Colin divided the villagers on the construction site into six teams according to his family and residence, and the selected captains were also experienced middle-aged people.
According to Nord's suggestion, two teams went to mine and grind the stone, two teams went to log, and the remaining two teams left a leveling land.
Looking at the construction site that gradually became orderly under the leadership of the captain, Nord still felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart, and he was also a small contractor from another world.
As the four teams entered the mountain to prepare materials, the field in front of them gradually became deserted, but the efficiency did not decrease. The cooperation between the people accelerated the progress.
Nord also wants to join a certain reward system to mobilize the enthusiasm of the villagers. Of course, it is not now. When the villagers first adapt to the team's working model and slowly join the competition and reward system, the road must be taken step by step, and if the steps are too big, it is easy to pull...
He handed over the construction of the manor to Abel. Abel had simple engineering and knew how to build the manor, so he handed over Lehman and Old Moore in the crowd.
"Lehman, I plan to go around the nearby mountains tomorrow. Is there anything to prepare?"
Lehman and Old Moore looked at each other, not understanding why Lord Lord took the risk to enter the forest. Lehman thought about it before answering.
"We are just the edge of the Amon Mountains, and the danger is not high. If you just want to go around the nearby mountains and forests, there is no danger. You can come back on the same day, and you don't need to prepare too much. If you go deeper, it will be very dangerous."
"Oh? Is it a danger that you can't even deal with?"
"You cannot relax your vigilance when you enter the jungle. Dangers are always around you. Poisonous insects and beasts may attack you at any time. You must keep your attention at all times. If you are negligent, you may lose your life, so I cannot guarantee your safety."
"Then let's take a look around first. Don't go too far, but the mountains and forests must be explored. You must be mentally prepared."
Lehman heard Nord only look nearby and looked a little happy, but when he heard the next sentence, his smile immediately condensed on his face, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.
Nord ignored Lehman and turned to look at Old Moore, the old hunter who had been living in the mountains and forests for most of his life.
"Old Moore, have you ever entered the depths of the forest?"
Old Moore faced the vast forest, with a hint of nostalgia in his eyes, but because of the direction, Nord did not notice it.
"The depths of the forest... I have been there. At the longest time, I took it alone in the forest for seven days and seven nights. In the deep and dense forests, what I fear most is to lose my direction, especially in the dark jungle. The sun is covered by tall trees, and the surrounding environment is exactly the same. If you are not careful, you will never go back."
"During the day, some light can shine into the forest through the gap. At night, it is really dark, as if there is only one color left between heaven and earth. Moreover, wild beasts in the forest will also come out to find food while they are also coming to the mountains to die at night, so try not to spend the night in the forest."
Nord was a little stunned when he heard Old Moore's description. He heard them talk about the dangers of the mountains and forests before, but Nord didn't care much, because in his previous life, humans were the masters of the earth. In the era when Nord lived, it was difficult for the environment and wild beasts to threaten humans.
All kinds of beasts have become protected animals, most of which stay in zoos for people to watch, and they have lost their wildness and cannot see their ferociousness at all.
Until today, after hearing Lehman and Old Moore's repeated emphasis, Nord realized that this was no longer the era of technological development in the past, and Nord didn't know what kind of beasts there are in this world. It was indeed inappropriate to go deep into the mountains and forests, but exploring mountains and forests is also the key to Nord's development territory, and it is imperative.
"Then you call four or five hunters tomorrow, take me around first, and then discuss plans to explore the mountains and forests."
Lehman and Old Moore nodded, showing their understanding, but they were still worried about Nord's plan to go deep into the forest.
After finishing the construction site and making an appointment for tomorrow's itinerary, Nord took Reed back to Colin's courtyard.
Reed jumped along the way, looking a little happy, Nord was a little puzzled, so he asked him.
"If you have something to be happy about, I'll listen to it."
"Mr. Nord, as your messenger, I should follow you all the time, so I will enter the mountain tomorrow."
Reed looked arrogant.
"The mountains and forests are so dangerous, what are you happy about?"
"There are not many dangers. The mountains and forests are so fun. There are countless wild fruits and medicinal materials, and all kinds of interesting things. My brother always doesn't take me there. I sneak in by myself. When they find out, they will teach me a lesson. Now that I can go in openly, I am of course happy."
Nord felt a little funny. Lehman and others entered the mountain as a very dangerous thing, and there was no need to go in at all. Reed thought that the mountain was very interesting. He was really a newborn calf who was not afraid of a tiger.
