Global Lords: I Have Information System-Chapter 561 - 390: Territory Cold Resistance in Progress

Doris and Marie both nodded.

Like two little secretaries, they stood by in waiting.

The usually carefree Doris also showed a rare serious expression.

In just a few days, the climate here had undergone tremendous changes.

After Zong Shen finished speaking, he took out the Burden-Bearer Mecha.

He personally took charge of driving it, taking Doris and Marie towards the southeastern living quarters of the territory.

That place was the most critical in the Frosty Winter Challenge for the territory.

It was also where most subjects took refuge from the cold.

Three kilometers isn't exactly near or far.

After five or six minutes, Zong Shen stopped the Burden-Bearer Mecha beside the living quarters.

Previously, Zong Shen had only viewed from a distance, and it wasn't until he got closer that he discovered even a [Medium-sized Bathhouse] had been built here.

With a bathhouse, the subjects no longer had to worry about bathing issues.

Moreover, this thing is quite like a Hot Spring Cottage and counts as a source of water.

The Water Runes embedded in the building could condense Water Elements.

This type of magic building is quite efficient.

On Earth, establishing a city water supply system is much more troublesome than it is here.

One needs to find a relatively clean, large-source water supply near the city.

Then, build a water plant and water pipelines.

To deliver purified tap water to thousands of households.

Magic has its advantages.

Technology also has its efficiency.

In fact, a complete system has formed in this world of swords and magic.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to form ultra-large cities with populations reaching tens of millions or even billions.

The most fundamental aspect of forming large cities is that productivity must keep up.

There must be enough food and resources to support such a population.

Currently, most of the houses in the living area are [Tier Two Houses].

Only about one-third are [Tier Three Stone Houses].

Compared to the initial [Tier One Grass Huts].

[Tier Two Houses] are better in both size and appearance.

The grass huts are almost open on all sides with just a roof.

But the houses are standard wooden cottages.

The main structure is thick logs, all fixed in place with hemp rope.

The walls are made of half-round logs.

The round side faces outside, and the flat side faces inside, all polished smooth without gaps.

Only two movable wooden windows are reserved.

The foundation is made of stones. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

The roof is also made of logs, but it is flat instead of sloped.

This type of Tier Two House has no issues with sealability.

Once a warm stove is ignited inside, it can ensure a warm environment.

The [Tier Three Stone House] is even more solid and spacious compared to the houses.

The most significant difference is that the stone house's main building material is built with stones.

The frame is wooden, with tightly joined stones.

All gaps are filled with yellow clay.

This clay is completely dried and feels rough to the touch.

If you rub it hard, you can even get some dust.

As a building with 800 points of Durability Value, it may not compare to the residences in Bang City.

But it's many times better than grass huts.

The stone house also has a reserved window, but it's not movable.

This type of window must be blocked, leaving only a vent hole.

Overall, the houses and stone houses are more than sufficient for cold resistance.

Now, as long as a windbreak wall is built, there won't be any major problems.

Unless it's a Wind Assault Calamity, in which case the city walls might be blown away.

The Tier One City Wall, although basic, is a standard log wall. Each log is sharpened at both ends, buried a third into the ground, and the surrounding soil is compacted.

This wall still has a certain level of strength.

Although the Lord System makes construction more convenient and simplifies a lot.

And measures the strength of constructed buildings with Durability Value and Building Armor Value.

But no matter how convenient or simplified, all buildings still adhere to the most basic physical rules.

When Zong Shen and the others arrived at the living quarters.

San Pang was distributing [Brand New Sheepskin Coats] with several farmers.

There are currently 362 farmers within the territory.

Most of the new farmers came from Odu Village after its ruin.

Additionally, there are 20 farmers with Rare Talent Level as reserve talents.

These farmers lined up in three columns, waiting to receive sheepskin coats.

The cold wind was biting, and many farmers hugged themselves for warmth.

In this weather, the rough linen clothes they wore were already insufficient to prevent body heat loss.

Seeing Zong Shen inspecting, all the farmers quickly bowed in respect.

The distribution of the sheepskin coats temporarily halted.

Zong Shen gently waved his hand.

"No need for formalities, distribute the sheepskin coats swiftly."

"I don't want anyone falling ill due to the cold."

Upon hearing his words, San Pang and the others straightened up and quickened the distribution pace.

The conversion speed of the queue increased by 30% out of nowhere.

Farmers who received the sheepskin coats immediately put them on.

The thick wool could resist the cold wind and ensure body heat wouldn't quickly dissipate.

These coats were gray-white in color.

Since they were of a universal size, the hem reached below the hips of a sturdy man 180 cm tall.

For the relatively shorter farmers and farmwomen, it could almost be worn as a coat.
