Arcane Lord

For Xia Duo, if he can get the attention of the princess this time, it will be an excellent opportunity. However, if he fails to get the attention, he will not be discouraged. He will still unswervingly do what he wants. .

Having established his three views, he has his own views on everything and will not change easily, and his decisions will not waver easily.

Now that there is a "demonstration field", "demonstration house", "demonstration workshop", "demonstration road", "demonstration village" and so on are also under consideration, so as to show the princess as much as possible. Advantages and potential.

After walking around the "quasi-farmland" and roughly determining the scope of the "demonstration field", Xia Duo returned to the small camp, took out a brand new blank notebook, started from the cover, and wrote -

"Daxia Ling Standard Development Manual"!

In this development manual, Xia Duo plans to develop it from the perspectives of clothing, food, housing, transportation, production and processing, and safety protection, and summarizes various problems that may be encountered during the development process.

It can not only serve as a standard operation demonstration for the Daxia Territory to continue to expand outward in the future, but can also be provided to the princess. On the one hand, it can demonstrate the advantages and potential of the Daxia Territory. On the other hand, it can also spread out and increase the influence of the Daxia Territory.

As far as Sha Duo knows, there is currently no special book on development in Netheril, or rather there is, but Sha Duo doesn't know about it. But if it's hidden, Sha Duo doesn't need to write this manual. .

The most special thing about this development manual is the "standard", which is also the concept that Xia Duo wants to promote. Just like when building a house, there are standard wooden house components; in the future, there will also be standard bricks, standard roads, and even standard clothing and standard cooking.

Of course, this does not mean that Xia Duo must strictly regulate all matters, but it only provides a more convenient and concise general method, which is conducive to large-scale popularization and at the same time raises the lower limit of skills.

In addition to institutional and policy standards, there is another aspect that is also very important, which is the unification of weights and measures. This is actually a hidden message in this development manual.

Based on the background fluctuations of the Magic Network, Master Nese created the 1-level spell [Echo Perception], and at the same time formed various time spells based on this.

For example, the Tower of Time's [Magic Hour] (3rd ring) is a more accurate clock magic. Another example is Xia Duo's [Alarm Clock] (2nd ring), which can maintain a 24-hour [Echo Perception] state and can set it by itself. Set reminder time.

As for length and weight, there is no unified definition standard. Each family and even each person has their own measurement method. The most commonly used one is probably the standard instrument given by the Temple of the Lord of Glory.

However, there is no strict definition of this standard instrument. In other words, ordinary people and even mages cannot know the source of the definition. It is generally believed that Glory is extracted from the experience of mortals.

In actual use and dissemination, it is very common for this kind of standard instrument to be worn, out of shape, and deformed. If a priest is present, the standard instrument can be recalibrated, but if not, even a mage will have a hard time judging.

Xia Duo's approach was much simpler. He directly created two new spells——

A system related to length, the creation system, uses existing arcane geometry standards to create a constant projection (0 ring). The constant here does not mean constant existence, but refers to "a fixed length obtained by standard spells." projection".

This spell can be created by almost any mage, but what makes a standard a standard is its popularity. It makes no difference whether it is created by Chateau or someone else. Only the one with the widest use becomes the real standard.

As for the weight, Xia Duo set a standard suspension weight through a 0-level standard spell based on the transformation spells [Mage's Hand] and [Levitation].

This is of course a family opinion. Other mages may have other definitions, but they basically refer to the standard weapons of the Lord of Glory. All Sha Duo did was simplify these two spells and achieve what he could. Extreme.

In this way, as long as you find a mage apprentice and let him learn these two spells, you can calibrate the standard instrument.

Of course, in today's Netheril, the connection between mages and ordinary people is not so close, even for mage apprentices. The main reason for this is naturally that ordinary people cannot participate in the production of mages. In fact, mages also Don’t want ordinary people to get involved.

In the "Da Xia Ling Standard Development Manual", Xia Duo provides many interfaces for mages to participate in the production and life of ordinary people.

For example, a brick kiln is led by a mage, who improves the production methods and standardizes the production process through spells; such as farmland, where the mage participates in farming through spells; such as clearing forests, etc.

If there were only one or two mages, that would certainly be too few. In Xia Duo's eyes, all mages were the target.

And even now, ordinary people can participate in the production and life of mages. Let’s not talk about life. Without ordinary people, would mages have to farm their own land?

As for production, Xia Duo will try a new production method in the Tower of Time. A small number of formal mages, low-level mages, apprentices, and even ordinary people can participate.

This approach seems to knock down the status of mages and elevate the status of ordinary people, but Xia Duo believes that this is the beginning of magical civilization. Without the widest grassroots participation, development and growth can only rely on individuals. Relying on genius and chance is not a healthy development model.

Xia Duo wrote this "Daxia Territory Standard Development Manual" very carefully. It not only contains practical technical guides, but also contains many of his thoughts on territory development and civilization development.

He is determined to be a trendsetter in the new era.

…

The next day, Xia Duo hosted the second house allocation ceremony in Linshui Village at the Altar Square. This time, a total of twenty households were allocated houses, all of which were ranked high in the merit book.

The daily performance of these people is obvious to all the other people in the territory. For these people to get this batch of new houses, other people in the territory are not only envious, but also more hopeful.

A just lord will gain the trust and support of his subjects.

After the houses were allocated, Xia Duo gave the residents who were allocated a house a day off and asked them to assemble the houses by themselves. After this period of working together in the working group, the residents quickly formed four house-building teams on their own.

Standard modular wooden houses have a simple structure and are easy to build. A group of five people, some with family members, came together. Under the guidance of the carpenter, in less than half a day, twenty wooden houses appeared neatly in the north of the Altar Square.

Xia Duo and Leiden came to the "demonstration field" that was just determined yesterday. This area is not large, only about four acres. However, because it was cleared early, there is no obvious debris in this area. .

Tree roots, stones, etc. were all cleaned up. At this moment, there were already people here who had been instructed to level the land with rakes.
