Endless Winter: My Camp Infinite Upgrades

Chapter 263: Pharmacy Upgrade, Population Surge, Resources Relaxation [Please vote at the end of the month! ]

"Is this bottle made of porcelain?"

Xia Hong did not look at the pills first, but instead paid attention to the four bottles used to hold the pills. Each of the four bottles was only the size of a fist, and came in four colors: green, blue, yellow, and red. The bottles were crystal clear, and had many exquisite animal-like patterns on them, which immediately reminded him of porcelain.

Cheng Feng was stunned and said, "Porcelain? I don't know. This is a new material developed by the Artisan Department last month. I heard that it is made of kaolin brought back from Wuyuan. It looks very beautiful and has been very popular among the women in the camp recently. Because there is not much raw material and the output is very small, the price in the camp supply department is not low. Just a small bottle for pills costs 400 contribution points, and you may not be able to get it."

It’s made of kaolin and it really is porcelain!
Xia Hong took the bottle, and a hint of amazement suddenly appeared in his eyes. He had only been away for more than four months, and the camp had even produced porcelain.

It’s not that porcelain is so precious. The key is that it not only serves as a carrier and symbol of civilization, but also indicates that people in Daxia are no longer just concerned with food and clothing, but have also developed a small number of spiritual needs.

This is probably the first real luxury product in Daxia!

Xia Hong teased secretly, then opened the four porcelain bottles. A strange fragrance immediately hit his nose, and his eyes lit up when he saw the four different kinds of elixirs.

Seeing Xia Hong open the porcelain bottle, Cheng Feng immediately introduced the elixir:

"The eleven medicinal herbs that the leader gave me during the day should all be very precious. They were combined into thirteen medicinal pill formulas. These four porcelain bottles contain the four most useful ones, namely Yuyang Pill, Beast Spirit Pill, Blood Yuan Pill, and the most precious one, Yang Yuan Pill..."

Eleven kinds of medicinal materials were combined into thirteen formulas.

Obviously, the many medicinal materials previously recorded in the pharmacy interacted with these eleven medicinal materials to synthesize so many kinds of them. This proves that almost every one of the eleven medicinal materials that he brought back this time can serve as the main medicine of a formula. No wonder Cheng Feng said that these medicinal materials are very precious.

As Cheng Feng continued his introduction, Xia Hong became more and more excited.

The main ingredient of the Yuyang Pill is Red Silver Flower. Anyone who takes it can gain the ability to move in the sun for a short period of time, one hour for the Woodcutting Realm and more than two hours for the Digging Realm.

Beast Spirit Pill, the main ingredients are Red Sun Fruit, Linglong Fruit, and intermediate beast meat. It can improve the efficiency of absorbing beast meat in the Digging Realm. It can be regarded as an upgraded version of Beast Yuan Pill. The effect is more than ten times stronger than that of Beast Yuan Pill. It is a holy product for Digging Realm cultivation.
Blood Essence Pill, the main ingredients are double-color liquid spirit fruit, panxiang leaves, and intermediate beast blood, which can improve the efficiency of the Digging Realm's extreme absorption of beast blood to reshape the skin membrane;
"The last Yang Yuan Pill..."

Speaking of the last elixir, Cheng Feng paused for a moment before continuing:

"I asked the leader for three pounds of jade bones earlier, just to refine this kind of medicine. Its formula is the most complicated. Not only does it include the eleven medicinal materials that the leader gave me, but it also includes the seven more precious medicinal materials that we have in our medicine refining workshop. Combined with the three pounds of jade bones, it took a furnace to refine one. There are about nine finished pills in one furnace. They are all here. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be the elixir for cold-resistant level training that the leader mentioned!"

Xia Hong carefully poured out the last pill from the red porcelain bottle, sniffing the strange fragrance coming from the pill, with a hint of intoxication in his eyes.

The Yang Yuan Dan is fiery red in color with several black lines in between, as if it were wrapped in a layer of magma. It feels hot as fire to the touch. Without the membrane strength of the cold-resistant grade, one would probably get burned if he touched it directly.

"The only drawback of this Yang Yuan Pill is that it consumes a large amount of coal when it is refined. I used a total of 5 kilograms last night."

5 jin, what more!
Normally, when preparing the Jade Bone Medicine, 7 jin of jade bones are needed for one jin of jade bones. 5 jin of coal can produce a furnace of Yang Yuan Dan, which is simply a way to save as much as possible.

“Gudong…”

Xia Hong swallowed the pill in his hand without hesitation, then closed his eyes in front of Cheng Feng and began to feel the medicinal power of the Yang Yuan Dan.

His membrane began to make a buzzing noise. It was the flesh and blood beneath the membrane that was being torn apart and reorganized by the power of the medicine. The powerful medicine could not be completely absorbed and even continued to radiate through the membrane.

The surprise in Xia Hong's eyes grew stronger and stronger, and ecstasy gradually appeared on his face.

"Three times, no, almost four times. The medicinal power of one Yang Yuan Pill is at least four times that of one Jin of Yu Gu Medicine. It's simply incredible!"

All the medicinal materials Cheng Feng needed to refine the elixir were obtained from Xia Hong, so Xia Hong knew very well that the medicinal materials he consumed to refine this batch of Yang Yuan Dan were only the amount of three kilograms of Yu Gu medicine.

what does this mean?
Using the materials used to make three pounds of jade bone medicine, nine Yang Yuan Pills can be made at the Da Xia Medicine Workshop. The medicinal power of a Yang Yuan Pill is three to four times that of the jade bone medicine.

"Not only is the medicinal power three to four times greater, but the absorption efficiency of flesh and blood is also far superior to the Jade Bone Medicine directly boiled down. If we continue to refine Yang Yuan Pills, the efficiency of Da Xia's cold-resistant training will far exceed that of all other camps in the future!"

Xia Hong looked ecstatic, then he looked down at the other three kinds of pills, his expression becoming even more heated.

"Beast Spirit Pills, Blood Essence Pills, Yang Essence Pills, and Beast Essence Pills, Daxia has all the pills for cultivation from the Woodcutting Realm to the Cold Resistance Realm. As long as we can ensure the output of these pills, the cultivation speed of these four stages will far exceed that of most other camps."

The Yuyang Pill is not simple either, it can allow a Digging Realm cultivator to appear under the sun.

To put it simply, for an individual, this is a good thing that can save lives at critical moments;

Generally speaking, for the camp, as long as there are enough Yuyang Pills, the situation on the battlefield can be changed in minutes.

The only thing to consider now is the source of the medicinal materials!

These eleven medicinal herbs all come from Longyou, and so far none of them has been obtained by Daxia itself.

Xia Hong frowned slightly, then gave orders to Cheng Feng.

"Notify the people in the alchemy shop to stop what they are doing."

Cheng Feng was puzzled when he heard this, but he immediately asked everyone to stop what they were doing.

There are quite a few pharmacists in Daxia, more than sixty in total.

Everyone stopped and looked back at Xia Hong with confusion on their faces.

Xia Hong's mind was slightly moved, and the system's resource panel suddenly lost 20 wood, 20 coal, and 40 iron.

At the same time, in the entire alchemy workshop, the twenty furnaces and the deep green round medicine cauldron in the middle also burst out with a strong light.

Seeing this scene, Cheng Feng and the others obviously realized something and their expressions became excited.

After more than ten breaths, the strong light dissipated.

However, incredibly astonishing changes have taken place in the alchemy workshop.

First of all, the area of ​​the alchemy workshop has been expanded by two times, and there is a small square area of ​​10 meters in the back. I don't know what it is used for;
Next are the twenty furnaces for refining medicine, which are also larger than before, and the space for storing fuel under the furnaces is also twice as large;
Finally, there is the green medicine cauldron in the middle. Although its size has not changed, there is a circle of ancient cloud patterns on the outside, and it also emits fluorescent light. From time to time, a strange medicinal fragrance wafts out of it.

Alchemy Workshop (Level 3): Alchemy equipment. You can put any item into it and identify the properties of the item. Items with medicinal properties will be automatically recorded.

Special function 1: It can automatically generate recipes based on the recorded varieties. The materials can be put into the medicine cauldron according to the recipe, and water can be added and fired to automatically make pills.

Special function 2: The medicine furnace can be used to identify pharmacology and sort out pill prescriptions.

Special function 3: Using the medicine furnace to refine pills can increase the pharmacist's success rate by %.

Special function 4: A -meter medicinal field is provided, which can be used to cultivate elixirs by consuming coal.

Consumption: 1000 coal per hour of burning; the identification function will consume different coal stones according to the preciousness of the item; the medicinal field consumes 200 per day

…………

There are three more special functions. The second and third ones are clearly aimed at cultivating pharmacists. With these medicine furnaces, Daxia should soon have its own pharmacists.

The fourth one is even more exciting, the medicine field!
Daxia can cultivate spiritual medicines on its own, consuming 200 points per day, which is about 4000 kilograms of coal a day. Although this consumption is horrible, it is nothing if it can continuously produce spiritual medicines for the camp.

On the contrary, the coal in the camp is now in a state of overflow for a long time!
Xia Hong was very excited when he saw the first four special functions, but when he saw the last upgrade condition, his face immediately fell.

"The upgrade conditions are becoming more and more stringent!"

Wood, coal and iron are actually easy to deal with, mainly the latter two.

There are 100 kinds of synthesis formulas, including the 13 new ones released this time. At present, Daxia has mastered a total of 44 formulas, and there are still 56 to go. You should know that the more you go to the back, the more difficult it is to synthesize.

Not to mention silver. 10000 points are equivalent to 5 kilograms of silver, which is more than the silver resources needed to upgrade several other buildings combined.

Before finding the silver mine, there was no need to look at the other seven buildings except the black soil wall and the yellow soil. This completely put an end to Xia Hong's idea of ​​upgrading the buildings.

After telling Cheng Feng all the functions of the upgraded medicine shop, Xia Hong thought for a moment and continued to instruct: "I will have someone send another batch of medicinal materials and jade bones over later. You should refine Yang Yuan Dan first, and then use the remaining medicinal materials to refine Xue Yuan Dan and Beast Spirit Dan. Refine as many as you can. In addition, study the use of the medicine field."

"I obey my orders!"

Cheng Feng looked very excited, and after he finished speaking, he led people to see the medicinal fields.

In fact, the four workshops of alchemy, forging, summer clothing, and carpentry are all under the jurisdiction of the Craftsmen Department. However, Cheng Feng's logging department often uses the alchemy workshop, so he is responsible for the affairs of the alchemy workshop, which is regarded as sharing some of the work with Mu Dong, the director of the Craftsmen Department.

Xia Hong returned to the main building and quickly sorted out the large quantities of jade bones, cold apple jade dew and ten other precious medicinal materials. He then asked someone to send them all to the alchemy shop.

"Thanks to Xia Chuan's generous request, the batch of medicinal materials sent by Longshan and Zhaoyang is enough to make 180 kilograms of Jade Bone Medicine. I take it to the medicine refinery and estimate that 60 furnaces of Yang Yuan Pills can be refined. If nothing goes wrong, that's 540 pills. It will definitely be enough for me to cultivate to the peak of the Cold-Resistant Level, or even break through to the Yang-Manifesting Level. In this way, the problem of cultivating the Cold-Resistant Level has basically been solved!"

Xia Hong's eyes moved slightly. The cold-resistant level training has always been a top priority for himself and the rest of the people in the camp. Now that this matter has been successfully resolved, he can devote his attention to the development of the camp.

………………

The screening work is ongoing, and the large-scale migration in Longyou is also taking place simultaneously.

Every night, about five thousand new people came from Jinggu. There were two or three unexpected attacks by cold beasts. Fortunately, the scale of each attack was not large, and they were all overcome safely in the end, with minimal population losses.

From April 29th to May 9th, the massive population migration finally ended, with a total of more than 49,000 people coming over.

At dawn on the tenth day of May, when Xia Hong checked the system panel again, the population of the camp had officially exceeded 100,000.

[Territory population: 102942]

In the main hall on the top floor of the main building, Xia Hong sat alone on the main seat on the high platform, looking at the population data of the camp, and a trace of memory suddenly arose in his eyes.

"In terms of population size alone, the gap between Daxia and the nine towns of Moao Mountain should not be too big. I just don't know how much difference there is in strength!"

He thought of Yang Ning and Li Hu.

Those two "prodigies" from Beishuo.

A hint of contempt rose in Xia Hong's eyes. The "chosen ones" he mentioned were of course more of a mockery. Even three years ago, he never took those two people seriously, let alone now.

What he was really interested in was Beishuo and the other eight towns in Mo'ao Mountain!

What is the prosperous scene like in nine town-level camps with a population of over 100,000?
How magnificent are the Mo'ao Mountains that Yang Ning told Luo Ming and others about?
What do the five strange monsters, namely, craftsman, nightmare, fierce, god, and demon, look like?
There is also the leader named Yang Zun that Luo Ming mentioned. He is as proud as Yang and Li. Every time he mentions him, they show respect and fanaticism on their faces. He also requires everyone to add the prefix of great lord. So how powerful is Yang Zun?

………………

Xia Hong had suppressed all these confusions in his heart in the past due to his limited strength. But now, with his growing strength and the growing size of Daxia, they naturally surfaced again.

Xia Hong stood up and turned to look at the entire map of the Great Xia territory behind him.

“We must not lose sight of the main goal and pursue the trivial. We must first stabilize the rear so that we can concentrate on solving the puzzle.

The current expansion focus should still be on Longyou. Yanglu is a desperate place. After taking down the Beehive, Daxia basically controls the entrances to the east and north of Hongmuling. Hongmuling reaches Xinghe in the south, and it is basically certain that there is no human camp. The west side is most likely adjacent to Longshan, and there is no entrance either. This means......"

Xia Hong drew a big circle on the map, framing the entire Redwood Ridge, and continued, "The entire territory of Redwood Ridge has been returned to Daxia. The next step is exploration, so as to transform the resources of Redwood Ridge into strength as soon as possible."

Thinking of this, Xia Hong couldn't help but feel some pride in his eyes.

By now, Xia Hong already had a general idea of ​​the environment in which Daxia was located.

Influenced by Luo Ming in the past, his concept was that only after passing through the arrow bamboo forest to the north could one reach the boundary of Pingxi Plain.

Now it seems that the entire area west of Shuanglong Mountain should be at the same altitude.

Therefore, the Shuanglong Valley where Daxia is located, including the Hongmuling Ridge further west, should all be considered as the territory of Pingxiyuan.

"From the perspective of cold beasts, vegetation, medicinal materials, and minerals, there are only three resource areas in the entire Pingxi Plain, and they are Jianzhulin, Hongmuling, and Longshan in order of area from small to large.

Now, Hongmu Ridge and Jianzhu Forest have both belonged to Daxia. Daxia also controls the two entrances to Longshan, the largest resource area, Wushuang and Hanqiong, and can also get a share of it. From the perspective of resources alone, it is only a matter of time to take over Longyou. There is no hope for Zhaoyang and Longshan to turn the tables!"

From a long-term perspective, resources are equivalent to strength, which is indisputable.

What's more, when it comes to the efficiency of converting resources into strength, Daxia is higher than other camps, not lower.

Although Longshan and Zhaoyang are now stronger than Daxia, Xia Hong is confident that this situation will be reversed soon.

Moreover, the speed of this twisting will be faster than you can imagine!

Tap tap tap…

The sound of footsteps coming from behind interrupted Xia Hong's thoughts.

Then, Qiu Peng's voice was heard.

"Captain, the screening of all camp personnel has been completed. The last batch has moved into the camp tonight. A total of 65924 ordinary people from the three families in Longyou have been arranged to live in temporary large wooden houses in the outer city.

The Quartermaster Department has registered all of them. There are still nearly 13000 people from the three families left in Longyou. Among them, 1388 Digging Territory have been split into two parts, and are stationed in Wushuang and Hanqiong to cooperate with us. Most of the remaining Logging Territory stayed in the Beehive, and a small number were transferred to Wushuang and Hanqiong to be responsible for the logistics of the garrison!"

Xia Hong's expression brightened up a little. The more than 60,000 people who had moved from Longyou first were all ordinary people who had not yet broken through the logging realm. Those in the logging realm and digging realm all stayed in Longyou. He knew this situation.

So strictly speaking, Daxia’s current population should have exceeded 11.

Qiu Peng's report was not finished yet, he continued:

"Our own Digging Realm have also arrived home, a total of 1800 people, including 1000 mid-level hunting teams with 40 people, and the remaining 800 low-level hunting teams with people."

This time, all the 32 intermediate hunting teams in the camp were transferred to Longyou. Xia Chuan obviously considered garrisoning in Wushuang and Hanqiong, so he left behind 12 elite intermediate teams.

Xia Hong nodded slightly and asked, "That's all. Who else has come back?"

Qiu Peng nodded and said, "I heard from those who arrived earlier that Si Cheng should be planning to personally take charge of Longyou. Yuwen Tao, Yuan Cheng, Luo Yuan, Meng Yi, Zhu Yuan, Lin Kai, Lu Yang, Huang Yong, Hong Gang, Peng Bo, Chen Yingyuan and the other eleven people are now in Jinggu and should be back soon."

Excluding myself, if we include Peng Bo, Chen Yingyuan, Chen Yingba and Wu Tianxing, the current number of Da Xia's cold-resistance levels should be twenty-three.

Zhu Ling and Qiu Peng were both in Xiacheng, Yue Feng was in Jinggu, and Xu Ning was in Wuyuan.

Hong Guang, Hong Tian, ​​Zhao Hu and Zhao Bao were sent by himself to garrison Hanqiong.

Xia Chuan should be stationed in Wushuang with Zhao Long, Chen Yingba and Wu Tianxing.

In other words, there are currently eight cold-resistant level personnel left in Longyou.

Leaving eight cold-resistant-level soldiers in Longyou should be enough for the time being!
"Lord Si Cheng sent someone to bring back a message saying that the three garrisons in Longyou have all started their normal hunting life. Once the straight road between Mirror Valley and Beehive is repaired, the various resources in Longyou can also be transported back to Xiacheng."

Xia Hong nodded. The people from the Beehive could go south into Hongmu Ridge for hunting and logging. There were also entrances to the branches of Longshan Mountain in Hanqiong and Wushuang. If there was no war in Longyou, the three garrisons could carry on a normal life.

"Now that the people from the hunting department have returned, let's prepare to lower the price of beast meat again. The training qualifications of the martial arts hall remain unchanged. For the time being, we will still give priority to those who are about to break through the digging realm. In addition, there is one more thing I want you to do..."

With so many hunting teams coming back, the supply of meat is naturally no longer a problem, and resources should be more relaxed. One pound of meat has 5 contribution points, which is not very friendly to the more than people who have recently joined the camp.

Hearing that Xia Hong wanted to lower the price of meat, Qiu Peng looked a little hesitant, but he still listened patiently. After Xia Hong finished speaking, he spoke with a hint of hesitation:
"Captain, I just happen to have a suggestion that I would like to share with you..."
