[Chapter 53 A Gentleman is Honest]

“You can bring people to Winter Village with my permission, and expel people back to their original world by my will.”

Elizabeth and the free version of Laura acted as guinea pigs in a timely manner. As for whether David would feel distressed by the loss of Laura? He actually thought it was nothing. After all, he was the head of Winter Village. Couldn’t he decide who could come and who couldn’t? It’s not like he couldn’t survive without one person. When there was room for choice, of course he would decide according to his heart and preference.

Compared with this negligible loss, it was more gratifying to discover the two new functions of the gold finger.

Not only could Winter Village grow faster, but he didn’t have to worry about the people coming because they didn’t agree with his own ideas or were stronger, and the cuckoo would take over the magpie’s nest.

“In this way, there is no need to worry about the sudden appearance of some super villain or something like that.”

Although all the people who came to Winter Village so far were positive characters, he still couldn’t be sure what criteria were used to decide the people who appeared?

The protagonists of each world?

It seemed so. Lara Croft, Mark Watney, Steve Rogers, Peggy Carter, Sharon Rogers, Will Turner, these people are all protagonists of various works, such as movies and animations, including Tirion Fordring, who is only a supporting role in World of Warcraft, and has also been the protagonist in the derivative novels.

But if you think about it carefully, you will find that this is not absolute. These people are all protagonists, but what about Squirtle? David can be sure that this one in his village is a very ordinary wild Squirtle, not the one of Master Zhi, because this Squirtle does not have sunglasses.

Therefore, it is not only the protagonist who will travel to Winter Village. Maybe the supporting role and the background board may appear, and the villain may appear.

David is working hard to improve himself every day. Whether it is holy light or fighting, archery and other techniques, he has not relaxed his training. He was able to suppress Sharon Rogers before, even if there was an imbalance in intelligence information, in the final analysis, it was because of his hard training.

If his strength is too poor, he can’t study that kind of cheating style at all, so what is the suppression? The reason why he was not beaten to death by Sharon on the spot was because the two of them were sparring instead of fighting to the death.

Even so, he was still worried that a big villain would come to the village. After all, most of the big villains were very powerful, and he felt that his strength was not enough.

Now he was no longer worried, and he became much more relaxed. He walked back to the village with a smile on his face, and finally sat down at the long table with a smile waiting for dinner.

Because the smile on his face was too obvious, everyone could see that the village chief

was in a particularly good mood today. “Strange, shouldn’t you be full of sorrow now? Why are you so happy?” In addition to taking care of his own farmland on a daily basis, Mark, who was mainly the village chef, looked at David curiously: “What treasure did you pick up?”

“No, I just made some new discoveries.” David would not hide the fact that he could bring people here from everyone. Next, he would discuss with Fording to see if Fording was willing to help him go back to Azeroth to recruit people.

But he would not ask about this matter at the dinner table in front of so many people. He planned to talk to Fording alone after dinner.

After finishing the story about being able to bring people, Mark was very curious about one thing: “Since you can bring people here, can you bring people out?”

“I’m not sure about that for the time being.” David also wanted to know about this, and he explained the situation directly to everyone, and also wanted to take the opportunity to test it.

If you can not only bring people here, but also bring people to “another world”, it will have a different meaning for people from different worlds in Winter Village.

However, the golden finger quickly poured a basin of cold water on David. Mark got up and conducted a series of tests, and found that he still couldn’t bring anyone to Mars.

Fording also tried it, but he couldn’t do it either.

Will, who successfully brought people here, made the final attempt. Only Elizabeth could follow him back to Royal Port. No matter what, no one else could go to Will’s world.

“So… you can only bring people here, and the people you bring here can also be brought back to their original world, but they can’t leave freely.” After a series of tests, Mark summarized: “Bringing people here requires physical contact, not necessarily holding hands, touching any part is fine, but you must be willing to go with the other person in your heart, and you can’t have any resistance.”

Thanks to the appearance of Elizabeth, so many things can be tested.

“I wonder if indirect contact will work.” If indirect contact is possible, then people can form a long line by touching each other, and it is easy to bring many people.

If direct contact is the only way, then even if Fording is willing to help, he can’t bring too many people at once. It will require “transportation” back and forth, which will increase the workload.

“How about I find a few people to try in the next few days?” Elizabeth thought about arranging a few people to help Will open up some farmland and build a manor or something?

She had been walking around all day today, and with Will’s introduction, she already knew a lot about this village.

Apart from other things, in Winter Village, as long as farmland is reclaimed, it belongs to the individual. Only Will Turner, a young man who grew up in a blacksmith shop, would ignore such a good opportunity.

Although Elizabeth has never thought of becoming a big landowner, it seems that there is no reason to miss the benefits in front of her?

Besides, the status gap between a big landowner and a blacksmith is still very obvious. If Will becomes a big landowner and builds a farm, maybe she can explain her relationship with Will to her father, instead of having to date secretly like now.

As for manpower? As the daughter of the governor, the last thing her family lacks is manpower, and it is not difficult to even find someone to get a few slaves temporarily.

“You can give it a try.”

David thought about it and agreed to Elizabeth’s suggestion. Anyway, the people Elizabeth found were either servants or poor people in Royal Port, or even bought serfs. No matter which one, they were just ordinary people.

The age of Caribbean pirates was not an enlightened and advanced age. Those living at the bottom of society had no knowledge. Even if they came to Winter Village and ran away, they would not leak any useful information. As for not understanding their origins? There are many lower-class civilians in this world who don’t know their origins. Many people only move around in a small area all their lives.

After talking about these things, dinner was finally over. Before everyone dispersed, David gave Will an extra reminder: “Next, make a handy weapon for everyone!”

“Don’t worry, leave this to me.” Will didn’t understand other things, and he didn’t even think about reclaiming farmland to become a landlord, but when it comes to his job, he is still very confident.

He decided to send Elizabeth back and talk to these people in the village one by one, asking what weapons they are good at using?

“It would be great if they were all good at using swords.”

Will was very confident in the sword he made. He had no idea how much of a headache was waiting for him!

After returning to Port Royal, Elizabeth immediately ran to her father, Weatherby Swan, and said that she needed some slaves to reclaim some wasteland.

Although he didn’t understand what his daughter was doing, Governor Swan, who loved her very much, didn’t think it was a big deal. Isn’t it just a few slaves who need to cultivate wasteland and plant something? Maybe they want to build a courtyard and plant flowers and plants or something?

“How many people do you need?”

Elizabeth was not sure how many people would be appropriate, so she tentatively said a number: “One hundred?” She felt that one hundred slaves should be able to help Will cultivate a large amount of farmland. When the time comes, Will, who has been upgraded to a large farmer, can come to propose marriage to her father.

“…”

When Elizabeth returned to Royal Port and discussed with her father how to improve her boyfriend’s value so that she could marry him, David and Fording sat in the wooden house, drinking tea and chatting. After

chatting for half an hour, it was Fording who broke the deadlock first: “This is not your habit. You rarely go around for so long without getting to the point. Don’t you know how to start?”

David took a sip of the freshly brewed black tea. He was not used to the way of drinking British black tea. Fortunately, the tea leaves as the main ingredient were no different from the tea leaves he was familiar with, so he could brew and drink them directly according to his previous habits.

David drank another cup of warm tea, but he still hadn’t figured out how to start.

How should he say this? Tell Fording, I know that many disasters will happen to Azeroth. The Kingdom of Lordaeron will suffer from the Scourge and the Scourge. The Kingdom of Lordaeron and Quel’Thalas will be destroyed by the Scourge led by Arthas.

There will be countless refugees, so I hope you can help me bring some refugees back! Before that, you can also go to Stormwind Kingdom, which is being harmed by Onyxia. There are a group of unlucky craftsmen who are owed wages by the kingdom, or you can dig them to Winter Village.

Spoilers are really fun, but Fording asked him how he knew all this, how should he answer?

David was thinking about this: what kind of nonsense should he make up so that Fording wouldn’t feel strange?

As a result, he held it in for a long time, and he didn’t even have the beginning, and Fording directly pointed out David’s most headache problem.

“Do you want to discuss my identity with me? Or about my future?”

David was stunned for a few seconds before realizing that Fording seemed to have known: “Laura? Or Mark?”

Fording, who had been serious and dignified most of the time, suddenly showed a smug smile as if he had succeeded in a prank: “You told me, just now.”

“…”

David was a little embarrassed. Laura had found out the problem before, and now Fording had found out the “flaw” from him. In addition, Addis had also complained about him. He realized that he was really not good at hiding, and maybe he should have been more frank from the beginning.
