After eating a meal of white porridge, the expressions of these people relaxed one by one.
They really had a hard time getting a normal meal.
Immediately, many young and middle-aged people stood up.
"It's getting late. We can go out now."
"We are just not familiar with the surrounding environment. If there is a team going out, please lead us."
"We will definitely work hard and won't be lazy."
"I just need to lead the way. I don't need your protection."
They were all people who once lived under the protection of the orcs' territory, and they understood the ways of the world better.
Even though this is human territory, and even though these are kind-hearted people, they cannot just accept help from others without making any effort.
One or two days is fine, but after two or three days, the other party will easily lose their sympathy for them.
...
...
What they can do is to take advantage of the other party's pity on them and work hard to save up capital for their living.
All of them are professionals, and it can be seen that there are quite a lot of professionals in this territory.
Just now, quite a few people helped them, but quite a few people also formed teams to go out. From this, we can see that the competition in this territory is really fierce.
Or in other words, which territory has less competition.
The tasks issued by the territory will basically be snapped up by the professionals in the territory within a very short period of time.
Simple resources like stone and wood are simply not available to ordinary people in many territories.
Looking at the anxious looks of these people, I hope the villagers don’t think there is anything wrong with it and just agree to it.
They also know very well that they can help people temporarily but not for a lifetime. The reason these people can consider becoming independent so quickly may be because of the environment they are in!
"Those who have the strength can come with us now."
"If you need to rest, don't be in a hurry. Take your time before leaving."
"It's a good opportunity to show you some resource points around the territory. You can go to a relatively safe place."
"Our territory's soldiers will also be clearing out high-level monsters nearby, so you don't have to worry about your life being in danger."
In this way, everyone who had the energy to leave followed the residents of Hope Village.
The restaurant, which was originally quite full, was now only filled with some elderly people, women and children.
Because the young men were not there, these people were a little nervous.
At this time, Meng Chengzhou came in from outside. After looking around, he said directly to the remaining group of old, weak, sick and disabled people: "I am recruiting workers. I need some flexible hands and feet. The starting salary is 50 copper coins a day."
"What needs to be done?" Miranda asked courageously.
"Carpentry is a delicate job. In addition to the basic salary, you will also get paid on a piece-by-piece basis," Meng Chengzhou said enthusiastically.
He is very short of people now!
In the previous batch, there were relatively few elderly people and women, so those who should be hired were hired. As for the others, they had their own ways out, and he could not hire anyone unless he raised the price. Therefore, when he knew these people were coming, he took action immediately.
"Can I keep my child with me?" Miranda hugged her daughter tightly.
"Sure, my daughter is here too!" Meng Chengzhou said directly, although his daughter preferred to run around in the territory and had recently started playing with the two little kids that Yun Juncai brought back.
Having more children means having companionship.
"I'll go." Miranda said quickly.
She was worried about how to make money in Hope Village. Now that she had an opportunity, she naturally wanted to grab it tightly.
After Miranda spoke, several others also spoke.
One of the old men was even more delighted, "I am just a carpenter."
Meng Chengzhou was overjoyed when he heard this and said directly: "The basic salary of a carpenter can reach 200 copper coins a day."
Immediately afterwards, several more people came in to recruit people.
"We need collectors, and those with similar skills will be given priority."
"I just need someone who knows how to light a fire."
"Just enough strength to do some hard work."
"I want good knife skills."
“Those with special skills can double their salary.”
“…”
In such a short period of time, the remaining "old, weak, sick and disabled" in the restaurant were completely divided up.
Especially some old people, they did not expect that some small skills that were not worth mentioning in other territories could come in handy in Hope Village.
There was a brighter light in their eyes than before.
Although my body is weak, my spirit is fuller.
After a while, when they finalized the work, they quickly started working together in twos and threes.
**
Lord Zhou Bai felt relieved after seeing the new local residents settle down.
After watching the whole process, she finally understood that if more residents came to the territory in the future, the territory would not need to step in to deal with them, as the territory would be able to absorb them internally.
After all, there are thousands of people making money in the territory now. In order to make a living and survive, no one dares to slack off. As a result, the economic situation of the entire territory is running at a high speed.
There is a shortage not only of combat personnel but also of living personnel, especially living personnel. The larger the territory, the greater the shortage.
In the next period of time, the territory will have to actively recruit residents to keep up with the development of the territory.
She had only seen the humans on Blue Star before, but now, she discovered a much larger market.
The native inhabitants of the Stan continent.
Their lives may not be very good, but as long as Hope Village is good enough, it will be able to attract them to settle down.
Thinking about it, Zhou Bai looked at the latest data on the control panel.
[Territory: Hope Village]
[Level: Level 2 Village (Upgrade)]
Population: 1,302/5,000
【Area: 2000 acres】
[Tax rate: 10% (adjustable)]
【Wealth: 886 gold, 82 silver, 35 bronze】
[Buildings: Lord's Mansion (Level 3), Primary City Wall, Primary Blacksmith Shop, Restaurant, Primary Tailor Shop, Level 1 Residence (30-square-meter Wooden House), Level 2 Residence (30-square-meter Double-story Wooden House), Level 3 Residence (30-square-meter Double-story Stone House), Special Buildings (Hall of Valor, Temple of Beasts, Hospital), Grocery Store, Primary Barracks, Primary Watchtower, Prison, Primary Warehouse, Level 1 Farmland, Well, Tavern, Farm, Commercial Street (50 Shops)]
[Contribution Mall: For territory residents, can only be redeemed with contribution points]
[Current ranking: (Stan Continent ranking: 9817) (Regional ranking: 2)]
[Territory War: 2/2 (Number of wins: 2) (Free period: 29 days)
[Note: Territory can only be captured by the lord]
With Hope Village’s current ranking, it should be eligible to compete with local villages for talent.
However, in terms of strength alone, Hope Village still needs to continue to work hard to become stronger.
After this territorial war, she knew very well that Hope Village was still too small for the entire Stan continent.
The orc territory, which Bayer and his men thought they could barely handle, almost brought Hope Village to the brink of danger, not to mention the dwarf and elf territories.
There is still a long way to go, so we can’t relax!
She only hopes that the territory she developed herself will get better and better.
Just as she was thinking about this, a new notification came from the system.
[Dear host, the training ground has been integrated and can be put into use. ]
Seeing this news, Zhou Bai's eyes lit up.
The training ground is finally ready!
Now, the soldiers can improve without going out.
She had a feeling that the training ground might be more technically-intensive for improving soldiers than fighting against monsters.
However, the residents of the territory cannot be ignored.
For example, she also wants to experience it!
So some conditions still need to be added.
Contribution.
It just so happened that many people had accumulated a lot of contribution points during these two times, and those who didn't plan to become soldiers still kept them! No one would be unwilling to use them to improve their strength.
And those who can get contribution points are those who have contributed to Hope Village, and their improved strength will be better for the territory.
After setting up and running the system so that ordinary residents can use their contribution points to use the training ground, Zhou Bai saw the relevant notification on his personal panel.
The next moment, Zhou Bai ran straight to the training ground without hesitation.
She had to experience for herself how much impact this trophy building could have on the territory.
