Chapter 8:System

"Ding! The player has successfully established an administrative center and unlocked the system building list!"

Lei Jiu blinked in surprise. System buildings? He hadn't noticed any options for buildings in the island's properties before. He had assumed that buildings had to be constructed manually, but it seemed there were unlockable options.

Curious, Lei Jiu accessed the building list to investigate further:

1. Trade Port: Facilitates inter-island trade and the sale of various resources like grain, wood, and minerals to the system.

2. Research Center: A public institution for scientific research and development.

3. Professional Hall: Responsible for certifying all professionals, including NPCs and players.

4. Public Ancestral Hall: A place for worship and communication with gods, offering potential blessings.

5. Barracks: Provides military training and accommodation for troops, including generals and commanders.

6. Military Aircraft Department: Manages military forces and equipment, excluding training.

7. Tower of Babel: A facility for personal strength and skill enhancement.

8. General Soul Tower: Allows players to challenge and obtain souls of famous historical generals to enhance their own.

Lei Jiu noted the absence of typical buildings like blacksmith shops or academies. These were all functional structures tied to system operations, offering a high degree of freedom in island development.

Pondering over the brief descriptions, Lei Jiu realized that the system provided minimal details on building functions. He'd have to construct them to fully understand their capabilities.

However, gathering the necessary materials seemed daunting. Lei Jiu decided to set aside system construction for now, as he lacked the means to proceed.

Leaving his office, Lei Jiu attended to daily tasks and consulted with Luo Zheng about the day's fishing haul.

"About 3,000 kilograms," Luo Zheng reported.

Impressed, Lei Jiu considered the implications for future population growth. With plans to explore additional fishing spots, he anticipated a rapid increase in population.

Reflecting on potential food shortages in the future, Lei Jiu pondered the delicate balance between population growth and resource availability. He understood the consequences of neglecting his people's needs.

Lei Jiu woke early the next day, eager to continue fishing and construction efforts. After surveying the island, Luo Zheng confirmed the existence of four fishing spots, prompting Lei Jiu to expand fishing operations accordingly.

Despite logistical challenges, Lei Jiu remained optimistic about Huanghuang Island's prospects. With careful planning and resource management, he hoped to overcome any obstacles in the journey ahead.
