Tang Qing said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Lu Ping immediately reported all the relevant information to Tang Qing.

Tang Qing listened to Lu Ping's story patiently while also doing calculations in her mind.

"Okay, I understand."

"Based on your current resource output, take into account the rewards you receive for completing the Level 3 challenge mission."

"To upgrade to a level 4 town, you still need wood, food, stone, and iron ore."

After a moment, Tang Qing said calmly.

"Ah... such a big difference?"

Hearing this, Lu Ping suddenly felt that there was no hope.

Although he knew it would be difficult, Lu Ping never expected the difference to be so huge, it was simply despairing.

"What do you think?" Tang Qing asked back.

"Teacher, can you help me get some money together?" Lu Ping asked with a wry smile.

"That's no problem. I'll do my best to help you, but you also have to actively help yourself."

“Thank you, teacher!”

Hearing this, Lu Ping immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay, don't be too happy. Everyone is short of resources, and I am no exception."

"You're short of so much, I can't get it all together in a short time, I can only help you solve part of it."

"As for the rest, I'll help you contact other people, but we've got to make sure you return these resources to them in the future."

"Okay, teacher, I understand." Lu Ping quickly assured.

"Well, that's good to know."

"Now, I'm going to tell you what to do next. Listen carefully."

"Teacher, go ahead."

"I will first provide you with 50,000 tons of grain, 50,000 tons of timber, 30,000 tons of stone, and 10,000 tons of iron ore."

"Once you have these resources, you can recruit the remaining soldiers and then prepare to take on the mission."

"In the calculation just now, I calculated the rewards based on the top ten, so you must be in the top ten and there can be no mistakes."

"Teacher, that's for sure. I will strive for the best results." Lu Ping said with a wry smile.

"Yeah, that's good to know."

"After recruiting soldiers, you can use the remaining resources to build a quarry and fifty acres of farmland, plus an iron mine and five residential buildings."
