Regestration and Allocation

At the hostel,Zach let everyone choose a bed,before leading them towards his cabin,where he took down their details and allocated everyone a task. The tailor was allocated one of the wooden shops where she would set up shop.

Zach gave her the remaining rolls of cotton clothe and tasked her with sewing clothes that would be later sold to the occupants. The tailor would receive thirty percent of the sales,but if she managed to procure her own materials,then Zach would be the one receiving thirty percent of the sales.

As for her daughter,she opted to have her help her at the shop. The husband chose to enroll as a guard, together with two other men. They would each receive a hundred copper coins a week as their wage.

One of the two men with a tool box was a carpenter and the other one was a mason.Zach tasked two of the remaining men to help the two professions. They were tasked to the construction of three smaller wooden cabins and a guards post at the gate.

Being mortals at body forging realm,the time needed for them to complete a single small wooden cabin was four times more than it took Zach.

The carpenter and Mason were to receive fifty copper coins a week, while their two helpers were to receive forty copper coins per week as their wage.

As for the two women,Zach had them work at the hostel,as cooks and servers. He had the remaining two children help out. The women would receive forty copper coins a week,while each of the child received fifteen copper coins.

Having settled everything,Zach lead the three guards to the warehouse where they retrieved bags of grains,meat, vegetables,fruits,jars of water,eggs and some of the spices he had gathered and several sets of utensils. All these were taken to the hostel's kitchen,where the two two women busied themselves with preparing a meal for everyone.

The remaining man was tasked with taking care of animals,Zach had come across a couple of common boars with piglets and planned on capturing them.

He had already allocated a potion of land on the southern part of the camp for rearing beast.

For the first time in weeks,Zach did not have to have his meal alone.

The camp was lit and sounds of laughter and merry could be heard.

That night,Zach had one of guards stand guard as the rest rested. He was afraid of beast attacks since he alone was enough to take care of most of the beast within the forest if not all.

Being a low stage foundation establishment realm cultivator with a peak forged body,he was able to fight against those at high stage of foundation establishment realm,and if he pushed himself a little bit more, fighting a peak stage foundation establishment realm spirit beast won't be a challenge,as for a cultivator at that lever,he could only run.

Cultivators were different from spirit beast ad they had defensive equipment,tools and techniques. They used weapons and qi skills,and had intelligent surpassing the spirit beasts. For him to fight against a peak stage foundation establishment realm cultivator,he needed to be at mid stage of foundation establishment realm.

As the rest retreated to the hostel,Zach locked himself in his cabin's basement. He had left instructions as to not be disturbed if it was not something urgent or an emergency.

He had also handed the guards a map of the areas he had scouted within the forest,and had them go capture the two boars and their piglets at dawn.

To the three men,it was an easy task as each of them was on the second stage of body forging realm.

He planned on having them break through the third level,before refining spirit beasts for them,as for them to achieve a peak forged body before embarking on the path of cultivation.

He already had six spirit qi gathering pills,he planned keeping two for himself and spending four on his guards. As for the foundation stabilizing pills,those were a treasure he did not want to waste on others.

Locked in his basement,he went through his profile as well as the quest panel.

"A hundred and sixty, that ten more weeks..."

Zach could only sigh,the good thing was that there was no time limit,and so he could focus on other matters at the moment,one of them being his cultivation.

He had a box full of spirit beast materials and a jar full of spirit beast blood in the basement. He planned on utilizing his mysterious knowledge on setting a spirit qi gathering formation in the basement.

From his knowledge,he knew that with his current cultivation,he could only lay a low ranked spirit qi gathering formation,but still,this low ranked formation increased the efficiency at gathering spirit qi by twenty-five percent.

First,he had to refine the beast materials,which took him close to two days,all this time,the sixteen residents of his camp were busy with their task.

The carpenter and the mason had completed the guards posts,that had a little arena at the back, here,some weights and training dummies were found.

Currently,the guards used wooden spears as weapons and had no armor.

As for the beast rearing sector,apart from the two boars and the seventeen piglets,there was an addition of a dozen chickens and two cows.

Outside the camp,an oxen could be seen pulling a wooden cart full of logs for construction.

Since Zach did not have enough wood,the two helpers had been sent to chop down some trees from the forest by the carpenter.

They are the ones who came along the two cows and the ox and since the three were docile,they managed to lead them to the camp.They planned on selling them to Zach later.

After the materials were refined,he inscribed the required runes before attempting to lay the formation.It took him several failed trials before he succeeded,by then five days had gone by.

"Finally..."

Zach sighed as the formation lit up,it took a couple of minutes before he could regestire the gradual increase of spirit qi in the basement.
