The day Zhou Bai officially became a landlady, a mysterious game descended! She traded several buildings in the city for a mysterious reward. After the game officially launched, her reward arrived!...
The honors team came
Because the various mercenary teams couldn't wait to place orders for various goods last night, many shops are busy preparing for these orders today.
For example, Zhong Yongnian needs a large amount of animal meat.
For example, Meng Chengzhou needed a large amount of wood.
…
Other shops also require a lot of various resources.
All of a sudden, there was a lot more information about purchasing resources in the entire territory, and even different levels of purchase prices were given according to the quantity provided.
The more others acquire, the lower the price, while for them, the more they acquire, the higher the price.
The purpose is to encourage the professional teams in the territory to hunt as many as possible and collect the resources they need.
Therefore, early in the morning, after seeing the news of the acquisition, the professionals in Hope Village came out in full force.
...
...
Of course, they did not forget to have a good meal in the territory's commercial street before going out.
Compared with the residents of Hope Village, the team of local professionals who just chose to settle in Hope Village a few days ago seemed more satisfied.
“Life is so good now!”
"Yes! Compared to my previous territory, my sleep quality has improved here, and I don't have to worry about the future."
"What do you have for breakfast?"
"I just need to buy a steamed bun and drink a cup of soy milk."
"I'm going to eat noodles."
"I'll just buy the hamburger meal and not come back for lunch, so I can save the extra money."
“It’s also because the prices are lower here that you can save money.”
“…”
A group of people were talking, their eyes sparkling.
This is a different spirit from before.
Wendel and others saw this scene and were a little surprised.
Because he still remembers the group of people he saw!
"Captain Watt, why are you here?" Wendell looked at Watt at the front of the team with some surprise.
He remembered that Watt seemed to be a resident of Aberdovey village?
But now, how come I am in Hope Village and have become a resident of Hope Village?
Although he had only been in Hope Village for a short night, he still discovered that most of the residents in Hope Village looked different from them.
Occasionally there are people like them, and they know that they come from nearby territories. After inquiring last night, there are even slaves redeemed by Hope Village in the territory war.
But he didn't expect that Watt would be among them.
Watt also didn't expect to meet Wendell.
Thinking about what everyone was talking about last night, about the mercenary team coming from the town of Benguela, I realized what was going on.
"Aberdovi was destroyed, and I fled here with my team and stayed here." Watt explained calmly.
Ever since I gave up resistance and only thought about the benefits of Hope Village, I discovered that Hope Village is actually quite good. Even though Aberdovy Village was more prosperous than here before, it is still not as good as here.
He accepted it calmly, so naturally he wouldn't feel as unfair as before.
"I thought you would come to the town of Benguela. With the strength of your team, you will have a place in our town." Wendel was a little surprised, but still said calmly.
Again, the rise and fall of a territory is happening all the time.
Just like they are now residents of the town of Benguela, if the town of Benguela is destroyed one day, he can immediately move to another territory to live.
So he didn't care whether Aberdovey Village disappeared or not. What he cared about was why Watt chose Hope Village instead of Benguela Town.
Because before the destruction of Aberdovi village, Watt had the intention to come to the town of Benguela.
When Watt heard Wendell say this, he felt embarrassed.
Can he say that this is a helpless choice?
Everyone below has chosen Hope Village. If he is determined to go to Benguela Town, he will have to start from scratch when he goes to Benguela Town.
"After discussion, we felt that this place was more suitable for us, so we stayed." Watt replied simply.
Yes! It fits!
Looking at Watt's expression, Wendle paused. He could tell that Watt was not telling the truth, but from the other party's tone he knew that the other party would not change his mind.
"In that case, it's good here too. We can cooperate again if we have the chance in the future!" Wendel said.
The cuisine of Hope Village can indeed be said to be unique, and for this reason, over time its development trend will not be inferior to that of Benguela Town.
However, he was still curious about what else in Hope Village besides the delicious food and low prices could attract Watt and his friends.
"Okay." Watt agreed. Whether it existed or not, it would be right to agree.
"After your village of Aberdovy was destroyed, how many people came to Hope Village like you? How did you end up in Hope Village? Did you meet there by accident or did you come here on purpose?" Wendel asked inconspicuously.
Watt looked at Wendell, paused, and then said, "We followed the team from Hope Village back. They sent teams out to do business, not just our village, but also Barnes Village, Glasgow Village, and Djibouti Village. They all went. Now, many teams from other territories have chosen to settle in Hope Village."
The other party will know these things sooner or later anyway, so it will be better to tell them in advance.
In addition, it can also be said that the good things in Hope Village are not hidden away and will not be known to others.
Wendel was even more surprised after hearing this, but when he thought about how Zhou Bai had led his team to his territory, it seemed normal for the other party to do so.
"You guys go and do your work first! I won't disturb you." Seeing that there was another team passing by them and leaving, Wendell didn't intend to delay Watt and took the initiative to say.
"Okay, let's talk again when we have a chance!" After saying that, Watt immediately led the team away, his pace quickening a lot.
He has to go early to grab a spot.
After Watt left, a team member next to him couldn't help but speak up, "Watt clearly said before that he wanted to save enough money to go to Benguela, but now..."
They are residents of Benguela town and naturally think that Benguela town is better. They feel a little unfair when they see Watt choose Hope Village.
"Maybe there is something in Hope Village that we don't know about that can attract them." Wendell said, his eyes full of thought.
They came here last night. First they were busy eating, then they were busy placing orders. They just wandered around the commercial street and really didn’t get to know Hope Village.
Maybe I can take this opportunity to find out.
It is easy to keep one team, but it is amazing to keep multiple teams from different territories.
At this moment, he also noticed that Yun Juncai was strolling in the territory with Charlotte and other members of the Cavaliers.
Watching them going in and out of various shops, Wendell's eyes flickered.
Speaking of which, Hope Village was really lucky, as the awarding team arrived just in time to bring his products to the royal capital.
Not surprisingly, as long as the product becomes popular in the capital, countless caravans will come here to get the news.
However, the more opportunities there are in Hope Village, the greater the risks.
It depends on whether Hope Village can be defended in the end.
The thought was fleeting, and Wendell's attention returned to Hope Village itself. He said to the group behind him: "Let's go and take a look around."
Just like that, Wendel wandered around the territory.
There are relatively few buildings in Hope Village at present, and they can be found in the town of Benguela, so they didn’t find them special.
The only special thing is that Hope Village has three special buildings, which makes it luckier than ordinary level 2 villages.
"This Hall of Heroes summons the undead, but the undead magic is banned in the Stan Continent, so it is not very useful!"
"And this Beast Temple. The orcs are not so easy to obey. Just don't get backstabbed. It's worse than the quest hall!"
"I see that there are few orcs in this territory. I'm afraid their lord doesn't want to hire them!"
"This hospital is not bad, but they currently have too few doctors and the transportation is too poor."
“…”
Several people walked forward talking, their words slightly disparaging of Hope Village.
Wendel also noticed it, and knew that their evaluation was a bit biased. After all, objectively speaking, Hope Village did have great potential. As long as it could survive the various tests in the early stages, it would definitely take off when it became Hope Town. But it was still a long way from that!
So Wendell didn't stop them.
In this way, we came to the factory under construction.
They know the location of the factory, and many of Hope Village’s current products come from here.
This is also their pick-up point later.
Perhaps considering that this area will be a commodity distribution center in the future, the distance between each factory is relatively far, and the road is very spacious, which can accommodate several animal carts running in parallel. The gate of each factory is also very wide, and there is an old man guarding it. When they saw them coming, he would glance at them and then move away.
"They hired an ordinary person like this to guard the factory gate, and he's not even a professional?" someone said in disbelief.
"Maybe there's some special relationship?"
This is the only explanation.
But Wendell still kept this in mind.
In fact, he had noticed a long time ago that there were many ordinary people in Hope Village. However, compared to ordinary people in other territories who were struggling for life, they were all very comfortable.
He showed no tendency to avoid or show fear when seeing professionals.
As he thought about it, Wendel focused his attention on a building under construction at the intersection.
Judging from the size of this building, it is larger than several other factories.
What is this for?
Wendel now finally felt the disadvantages of not having a guide. They really couldn't figure out things they didn't know at once.
Just at this time, a group of children came here with various cakes and buns, staring at the building under construction.
Wendell's eyes flickered, and then he asked them, "Children, do you know what is being built here?"
Yunjia is older, and seeing Wendel's unfamiliar face, he was a little wary, "Why are you asking this?"
"We are a caravan from other territories. We came here to do business and just walked around. We were just curious when we saw the buildings being built here."
Yun Jia listened, pursed her lips, thought for a moment, and felt that it didn’t matter if she said this was a school. Then she said in a childish tone, “This is a school.”
"School? Is it a place to learn magic?" Wendel asked in surprise.
Seeing Yun Jia speak, the other children also spoke up.
"School is a school, a place where we can read and learn to read."
"My brother said we can come to school once the school is built. I am exactly 6 years old and can go to Grade 1."
"My dad did say I could learn magic, but that was after we finished elementary school. My dad said I must have a talent for magic."
"My mother said that it doesn't matter if I don't have a talent for magic. The school will teach us other things. At most, I can learn some other skills, and I won't starve to death in the future."
“…”
Several children were chattering, their eyes full of longing for school.
After all, their families tell them every day how good it is to study, so they naturally remember it and develop expectations in their hearts.
"Can all the children go to school?" Wendell asked.
"yes!"
But the naive children had no idea of the impact their words had on Wendell and others.
Seeing the strange expressions on Wendel's group's faces, Yun Jia quickly said to the children beside him: "Let's go and play somewhere else."
"good."
Then the group ran away in a flash.
After these little guys left, someone couldn't help but say.
"I now understand why people can stay in Hope Village."
“If I had children, I would probably come to Hope Village for them as well.”
"You said, if I let my child come to Hope Village..."
“This Hope Village may not have good teachers.”
"But there are many professionals in Hope Village. It's not easy to teach adults, but it's not difficult to teach children. It's not a bad idea to study in Hope Village before the age of 12."
“…”
The people at the scene started arguing unconsciously.
Wendell listened and let out a long sigh in his heart.
At this moment, he began to understand why Watt chose Hope Village.
Maybe, even if he doesn't want to, his subordinates are reluctant to give it up.
"The school hasn't been built yet! Let's see how the situation is in the future. Anyway, we are close and can observe more." Wendel quickly reassured his men.
Wendel's words did make them change their minds.
Wendel quickly took them away from here and went to the lord's mansion.
This incident at the school gave him the urge to learn more about Hope Village.
Soon, Wendel and his party entered the lord's mansion.
However, they didn't expect that they knew more people in the lord's mansion.
There are several mercenary teams in the town of Benguela.
Yes, as mercenaries, when they arrive at a place, they will habitually get to know the new environment and the rules of each territory, so as to avoid breaking rules that should not be broken, which will cause trouble later.
The Lord's Mansion is the fastest channel for them to learn about things, and by the way, they can also see if there is any valuable information from it.
"Captain Wendell, you're here too."
Seeing Wendell, Maria greeted him excitedly.
In other words, many people at the scene had excitement on their faces.
"What's wrong?" Wendell asked.
"Hope Village is hiring!"
"What's so special about this..."?
Before he could finish his words, Wendell saw what was written on it and was completely stunned.
[Recruiting Commercial Management Office officials, contribution 5000, ...]
[Recruiting officials for the Financial Management Office, contribution 5000, ...]
[Recruiting personnel management officials, contribution 5000, ...]
[Recruiting officials for the Education Administration Office, contribution 5000, ...]
[Recruiting staff for the Business Management Office, contribution 500, ...]
【……】
When will territorial officials openly appear in the territory’s recruitment notices?
"Is this true?" Someone in Wendel's team couldn't help but ask.
Everyone knows that the officials of the territory are basically decided by the lord.
Just like their captain, who made his sister, the mayor of Benguela town, his lover, wasn't it for the opportunity to become a territorial official and hold power in the future?
"Really! Many of them are from other territories. They are very hardworking and have become soldiers of the territory. Soldiers don't need to compete. You just need to reach 500 contribution points. Then 5000 is the captain of the soldier team." Maria said excitedly, "The soldier team is not limited to men and women. There are many female soldiers in it."
It was only after she found out that the person with the highest level in Hope Village was actually a woman, who was only one step away from becoming a mid-level archer. Although she was an undead, she was also a captain recognized by everyone, and she had a lot of soldiers under her command!
Not to mention, the village chief of Hope Village is also a woman.
Although she is the captain of a mercenary team, she knows that many people in the town of Benguela look down on her. If her mercenary team had not been taken over by her father, many people in the team had grown up with her, and she had decent talent, she would never have been able to get to the top.
Even though the strong are respected in this world, under the same conditions, women are always more likely to suffer losses.
Hope Village allowed her to see a different kind of fairness.
That's why she was so excited.
Seeing Maria's excitement, Wendell understood a little.
Then he thought about it in his mind and said, "How can I accumulate this contribution?"
"You have to become a resident of Hope Village and make contributions to the territory. I heard it's not difficult. You can basically accumulate enough points by participating in a few territory wars. You will also gain contribution points by completing territory tasks on weekdays. As for not having 5,000 contribution points, if you perform well, you can serve as an acting official in advance. Once you have accumulated enough contribution points, you can become a formal official." Maria had obviously arrived a long time ago and understood everything clearly. She spoke in an orderly manner.
Wendell listened and began to think about it.
He was considering whether it would be better to start saving in Hope Village or continue to go back to Benguela Town and follow the "relatives" route.
He invested a lot in Simmons.
Besides, the town of Benguela is definitely better than Hope Village.
Thinking of this, Wendell calmed down.
Then he secretly sighed again, it was amazing, in such a short time, Hope Village almost bewitched him.
Not to mention other ordinary professionals.
Especially when Hope Village currently shows great potential, the appeal is even greater.
There were also some residents of Hope Village at the scene. Seeing that the mercenaries were moved, they continued to encourage them.
"In fact, in addition to being fair in personnel selection, our territory is also fair to professionals and ordinary people. Many ordinary people can find jobs in our territory! If your family members are ordinary people, they can find jobs in the territory, which is safe. When your children are old enough, they can go to school. How great!"
"Yes, yes, yes. Even in the worst case scenario, if you accidentally get injured and disabled, the territory will find a suitable job for you so that you can have a secure life! Although it's best not to happen, it's not impossible!"
"Also, you can have a chance to work when you are older. We are looking for an older man to be the factory janitor this time."
“…”
After hearing these words, the eyes of the mercenaries from the small town of Benguela became brighter and brighter.
Their words touched the hearts of their mercenaries.
They make a living on the edge of a knife, and they just hope that their families, children and themselves will have some security when they are old!
In the past, they had hoped to save enough money, but now it seemed that they could even hope to rely on the territory.
Heart-beating!
After a while, all the mercenaries left, but after they left, some new ones came in.
Repeat the cycle.
In less than a morning, the "welfare" of Hope Village had become a key message passed on by word of mouth in the town of Benguela.
Many mercenaries who are not doing well have already been ready to make a move.
Finally, the news reached the ears of Charlotte and others.
Today, Charlotte spent most of her time selecting products.
This is his personal character. If he wants to enjoy, he has to wait until things are done before he can be free from worries.
However, when he was selecting the products, he did not forget to ask his subordinates to inquire about the situation of Hope Village.
After the other party had inquired, he naturally told Charlotte and others.
After hearing this, Charlotte laughed.
"This territory is so interesting!"
Ever since he came to this territory, every detail of Hope Village was beyond his expectations and could be considered a "surprise" to him.
It allowed him to see a different scenery, a scenery different from that in most territories.
Among the territories he knows of so far, he has not seen any territory that has taken this route, and he does not know where it will go in the future.
Also, are the thousands of territories that suddenly appeared like Hope Village?
"Sir, why do I feel that this Hope Village is using these special things... to poach people? I heard that many people have already settled in the other territories, and many have shipped goods back and brought their families with them to migrate. It seems that a lot of people may be poached in this wave of Benguela town." House, one of the knights, couldn't help but say.
"Yes! If I were an ordinary mercenary, I would also be tempted to come across such a territory." The other knights echoed.
Their future is definitely good, so they won't be confused, but if you put yourself in their shoes, you can clearly see the impact of these policies in Hope Village on ordinary people.
"The development of a territory requires people. As long as there are more people, the development will always be faster. The development of Hope Village requires people. What it needs to do now is naturally to attract enough people. This behavior is normal." Charlotte said directly.
"Should we record this and report it?" House asked.
They also had a purpose for coming this time, which was to check out the situation of these newly emerged territories.
The school in Hope Village, the selection of officials and other behaviors are actually considered to be extraordinary behaviors.
Charlotte listened, was silent for a moment, and then said, "Record it truthfully!"
Even if some of Hope Village's actions are a bit out of line and infringe on the interests of the surrounding territories, it is just a village now, and the king will not take it seriously. Even if the higher-ups know about it, they will not think it is a big deal. Most likely they will just pay a little attention to see if there is potential and whether to win it over.
If they did not report truthfully, and if Hope Village grew stronger in the future and the higher-ups discovered that they had hidden something, affecting their judgment of Hope Village, they would be in trouble.
Although Charlotte is very optimistic about the development potential of Hope Village, it is nothing compared to her own future.
Of course, it is best to record it truthfully, regardless of whether it is good or bad.
Moreover, he had a vague feeling in his heart that the emergence of a territory like Hope Village might bring some impact to the human kingdom.
As to whether this impact is good or bad, it remains to be seen in the future.
"Yes." House nodded.
While the mercenary team in the town of Benguela was wavering and hesitating about the Village of Hope, the "headhunting" operation of the previous group of merchant caravans had already begun with their arrival at their respective territories and the sale of goods.
