Chapter 20 Alchemy
Nine days passed while waiting, and the merchant ship that was expected was completely missing, but another thing that Yang Yi had been looking forward to for a long time could begin.
A place not far from the town center of Ratchet Village was leveled except for a large open space a few days ago. Now there are two large piles of building materials piled beside the open space. A pile of stones and a pile of wood are neatly stacked separately.
In the past few days, Yang Yi often led the level 1 construction murloc peon to this open space. Every time the murloc peon always shook his head and said that the materials were insufficient, and every time Yang Yi heard that the murloc nursery pond could not be built, he always It is inevitable to leave disappointed.
On this day, the murloc workers finally nodded, and the "100 stones" and "100 wood" needed to build the village's level 1 murloc nursery pool were finally collected.
start!
There was no need for Yang Yi to say more. With a wave of his hand, the level 1 construction murloc peon rushed into the open space with five strong murlocs and started construction.
It takes most of a day to build a level 1 murloc nursery pond in a village. Although Yang Yi wanted to watch the construction being completed, food in the murloc village is still in short supply. He, the village leader, also needs to go fishing to get along with the fish. All the fish people in the human village get through the difficulties together.
As time passed, Yang Yi, who had been fishing at the pier, knew that the village's first-level fish-man nursery pond was about to be completed, so he frequently turned back to the fish-man village to watch.
"The construction of the village's level 1 murloc nursery pool has been completed. The task of constructing the village's level 1 murloc nursery pool has been completed within 10 days. Reward: One lucky draw opportunity."
Finally, a voice sounded like an oriole coming out of the valley, and Yang Yi was so mesmerized when he heard it.
"Start the lottery!"
There was nothing to wait for, Yang Yi immediately entered the mysterious space.
The cute disc is still there, and the naughty black pointer begins to rotate.
After playing around for a while, the black pointer finally stopped in the fan-shaped area of the number "five", and a cyan scroll appeared.
Eagerly exiting the mysterious space, Yang Yi quickly opened the cyan scroll, but what came out after opening the scroll this time was not a drawing, but an animal skin notebook.

Yang Yi paused for a moment when he first saw that it was not an architectural drawing but a notebook, and then he immediately smiled.
Unexpectedly, the mysterious space not only provides architectural drawings, but also provides advanced manuals for life and career. This is great news.
Life professionals are a strong backing for village construction. Professionals like alchemists who can refine magical potions from herbs and other substances can improve the village's combat effectiveness and are also the best choice for making money.
The "Usage Requirements: Alchemy Platform" and "Learning Requirements: Legal Professionals" shown on the scroll can be met by Ratchet Village, which made Yang Yi smile from ear to ear.
Remembering that the village's level 1 murloc nursery pool had just been completed, Yang Yi smiled and put away the cyan scroll and ran to the murloc village.
The construction of the village's level 1 fishman nursery pool was completed, and the old blind man came after hearing the news. He had just arrived and was about to send someone to inform Yang Yi, the village chief, when Yang Yi arrived unexpectedly.
"Congratulations to the lord, the lord is wise. Ratchet Village has another important building." The old blind man was excited.
"Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa it!
The level 1 construction murloc peon congratulated him immediately.
The murlocs who participated in the construction and watched gradually began to shout, and their voices became louder and louder.
The old blind man and this clever murloc hard worker both took the lead in demonstrating on the spot, and all the murlocs in the village followed suit.
"Haha, this lord is indeed wise, but this is also due to everyone's contribution. Everyone is happy..." Yang Yi was greatly pleased.
0 "Lord, since the nursery pond has been established, it must be used well. This will be very helpful for the population growth of our fishman village." The old blind man came over and said.
"Yes, we should make good use of it, but how?" Yang Yi calmed down and asked.
"We murlocs need to live in the water during the larvae period and survive by preying on plankton, larvae and scraping algae. During this period, murlocs grow most rapidly, and it is also a time when the body is weak and lacks the ability to protect itself."
"The fishman fry will not only be hunted by lobstermen and other foreign races, but will even be preyed upon by big fish, turtles, crabs, etc., so the mortality rate is extremely high. The role of the fishman nursery pool is to help the fishmen survive the period of the fishman fry. This is a fragile stage and allows the fishman to lay the foundation for a strong body right from the time when the fishmen are young.”
The old blind man explained to Yang Yi in detail.
"So we have to send people to collect the murloc seedlings in the sea and put them in the murloc nursery pond for feeding." Yang Yi said.
"Yes, lord."
"Okay, let's arrange for someone to do it."
Yang Yi gave the order, and the old blind man went to make arrangements.
“It feels good to be the boss.”
Yang Yi was satisfied with the feeling of being a hands-off boss. As long as he opened his mouth to speak, the old blind man would make the specific arrangements.
Only at this time did Yang Yi have some free time to take a good look at the newly built village level 1 murloc nursery pond.
The village level 1 fish nursery pond covers an area of about 8 mu, and looks like a large artificial pond.
The wall of the large pond is made of flat stones, and the entire nursery pond is divided into four parts in the shape of a "field" character, so that each part can be conveniently stocked with fish seedlings of different sizes.
In addition, three small fish huts were built outside the large pond, and a circle of wooden fences was surrounded to prevent the fish seedlings from accidentally running out after they have just grown into small fishmen and crawled out of the pond.
Yang Yi is very much looking forward to the system special effects of the village level 1 fish nursery pond. After all, in addition to accelerating the growth of fish seedlings, it can also improve the physique and mind of fish seedlings. Among them, the improvement of mind is what Yang Yi is most looking forward to.
A group of fishmen with strong limbs and simple minds cannot build a big city, not to mention that it is really boring to have a group of stupid younger brothers around all day. How can the boss be without those followers who flatter him?
The life of a murloc can be roughly divided into five stages from eggs to adulthood: murloc eggs, murloc embryos, murloc seedlings, young murlocs, and adult murlocs.
Murlocs usually lay their eggs in shallow sea rock cracks or underground rocks near the village to reduce danger. These murloc eggs will be taken care of by any murloc in the murloc village who can take care of them.
After about a month, the fertilized eggs will develop into murloc embryos. During this period, the murloc embryos will leave the protection of the rocks and feel the tides as the seawater surges. It is said that feeling the tides is very helpful for their growth, but it also causes a high mortality rate of murloc embryos.
After the murloc embryos break out of the eggs, they enter the murloc seedling stage. At this time, the murloc's small fins begin to develop. Although the forelimbs are still fin-shaped, the hind legs have grown. At this stage, the murloc seedlings have begun to forage for food in the water. At the same time, they are weak and have also become the hunting targets of other creatures because they forage for food everywhere.
The murloc seedlings have grown into small murlocs after experiencing many hardships. At this time, the appearance of the small murlocs has begun to take shape. The forelimbs develop into murloc hands, the dorsal fin begins to take shape, and the gills develop to the point where they can breathe air. After a period of adaptation, the little murlocs can go ashore and join the murloc village to start living on land.
It takes a year for fish eggs to grow into little murlocs that can go ashore, and the longest time is during the murloc fry period.
The Thorntooth Village has just been established, but this does not prevent the old blind eye from arranging people to collect murloc fry in the sea.
Since murlocs will flow out with the sea water to feel the tide in the murloc embryo stage before they break eggs, even if the murloc village protects the fish eggs more strictly, there will always be some murloc eggs carried far away by the waves.
If these murloc eggs are lucky, they will become wandering murloc fry. These murloc fry swim all over the sea looking for food. In many cases, no one knows which murloc fry are from which murloc village except for confirming the clan they belong to by the color of the scales.
Most of the murlocs in the Merchant Coast are mixed murlocs without a clear clan, unlike the murlocs in the Dustwallow Marsh further south of the Merchant Coast, where the black-gilled murlocs have iconic appearance features and clear clan affiliation.
