Barnes Village.
Li Xingteng was also ready to lead the team away. After all, business and other things were quickly settled, and they also exchanged things for various resources that Hope Village needed now.
But he didn't expect to encounter hot weather on the day he left.
Their entire team brought a lot of suits to deal with special weather conditions, including high temperatures, so there was naturally no problem.
But the problem is that this time, it’s not just Li Xingteng and his team who are going to Hope Village, but also other residents of Barnes Village.
These residents all became interested in the Hope Village after listening to Li Xingteng's team's description of it.
Even though Barnes Village is one level higher than Hope Village, the cost of living in Barnes Village is very high. Every day, residents go out to hunt monsters for survival, but die outside for various reasons.
Now that they know there is a territory so close, with low prices and jobs to be found in the territory, they are naturally willing to go there.
Especially knowing that people with skills are more popular, it makes people excited.
If words alone were not enough to attract the attention of the residents of Barnes Village, they witnessed with their own eyes the various delicious foods and cheap goods in the hands of the residents of Hope Village.
...
...
A team with something like this can't be trying to trick people.
In addition, there are many people planning to go with them, so if things really don’t go as planned, they can just come back together.
Because of this idea, many people plan to go to Hope Village.
Li Xingteng knew that Hope Village needed people to develop, so he was willing to take them with him.
But with the arrival of hot weather, this group of people has become a problem.
At this time, this group of people directly blocked the way of Li Xingteng and others.
"We can't go anywhere in this weather! Something will definitely go wrong halfway through the journey."
"Why don't you wait for us for a few days? Wait until the hot weather is over before leaving?"
"We are going to your territory anyway. Since you represent the officials of your territory, you should protect us."
“…”
In the crowd, many people spoke one after another, obviously considering themselves as the "responsibility" of Li Xingteng and others.
Li Xingteng and his team were infuriated after hearing these words that were like moral kidnapping.
Li Xingteng and the others didn't need to say anything, they just cursed back.
"Why do you want us to wait for you? Did you give us money?"
"It's true that we are soldiers of the territory, but we have a mission for the territory. If we return late and delay the mission, can you afford to compensate us?"
"Anyway, we've put our words here. If you have the ability, follow us. If you don't, just wait until the hot weather is over and go on with your own abilities!"
“…”
Li Xingteng and others were really angry.
It's true that they are in need of people, but they look down on people who say these things.
The prices in Hope Village are relatively low and it is suitable for living, but it is impossible to live a good life if you only rely on others.
Everyone in Hope Village is in a state of internal competition now!
If they want someone, they want someone who can support themselves.
Come to think of it, this hot weather is also a test.
Under such circumstances, only those who can leave with them are those who can truly adapt to life in Hope Village.
Those who rely on others and expect others to take care of everything, who knows if they will continue to cling to them after they go to Hope Village.
As the group thought about it, their ideas became more determined.
Finally, the leader Li Xingteng spoke, "We have to leave today. Those who are willing to go with us can go together. You can prepare your own needs for the journey. Those who don't want to go can stay behind! Or you can wait until the hot weather is over before leaving. There are more of you, so it will be safe then, right?"
After saying this, Li Xingteng didn't respond at all and just left with his team.
Seeing Li Xingteng leave without saying anything, many residents were confused.
The most important thing is that Li Xingteng and his men have been too friendly to them in Barnes Village in the past few days, and when they mentioned their own territory, they even had the intention of poaching their people.
In such a situation, they have a feeling that they are needed by the other party, and some of them have the courage to make trouble.
But the development of things was still beyond their expectations.
It’s just two or three days late, how much impact can it have?
Little did they know that what Li Xingteng and the others cared about was not just one or two days, but their attitude.
Although only a small number of people were talking, who knows if the rest were waiting among them to take advantage of the opportunity!
While they were thinking about it, Li Xingteng and his team had already walked some distance away.
Some people quickly chased after them and took out various heat-resistant equipment.
It was obvious that they were all prepared and were just trying to fish in troubled waters to see if they could gain some benefits.
Now that it is gone, it is natural to prepare what needs to be prepared.
"Brook? Are we really going to take the children away from here?" Lola asked her husband, looking a little uneasy.
"Barnes Village is no longer suitable for our family to live in. I have offended Tom. If I don't leave, I will be easily ambushed by him. If I accidentally die outside, you... I'm afraid you won't live long either. We can only follow YiBo." Brooke said without hesitation.
"What if Hope Village isn't as good as they say?"
"We turned to the town of Benguela. I heard someone in their team say that a team from Hope Village had gone to Benguela.
"I'll listen to you."
"Let's go." As he said that, Brooke, holding a child in each hand, chased after Li Xingteng and the others.
There were many families like theirs, and after hesitating for a moment, they all followed.
They are all people or families who cannot survive in the village of Barnes.
One is waiting to die, the other is having a slim chance. If possible, they would naturally choose the latter.
Different from these individuals and families are some caravans among the crowd.
They came here purely because they saw the potential of Hope Village’s merchandise.
Hiding in the crowd, I just wanted to see the "atmosphere" of this Hope Village.
Now it seems that it is much better than they imagined.
"Should we go now or later?" a professional guard at the side asked Locke, the leader of their caravan.
Locke listened and said without hesitation: "Let's go now! The goods they bring out will not make us lose money, and I have a feeling that they have something better in their hands."
In this way, more and more people followed Li Xingteng.
Even if many people do not have heat-resistant equipment, they still have ways to survive in special weather conditions.
At the front, Li Xingteng didn't care about the residents who followed him, but he just didn't want to be bullied.
After all, it was also his achievement to bring more people with him.
As the territory develops, more and more talented people emerge, and each of them wants to climb up.
The longer they survive in this world, the more they understand that this is a world completely different from Blue Star, where the strong are respected and territory is the main thing.
If you want to live a good life, you have to improve your own strength and climb to a higher position in the territory. The two complement each other.
He didn't know how other teams completed their tasks. He only knew that he had to try his best to do better than the normal completion.
Bringing back so many people is also his achievement, and the territory will definitely reward him for his contribution in the future.
After seeing that there were quite a few people catching up, Li Xingteng was completely relieved.
Then, looking at the distance to Hope Village, I was eager to go home.
Just like that, Li Xingteng's team gradually went away, and the people following them also gradually went away. Some people who were not prepared just watched them leave.
"Forget it, let's wait until the hot weather is over! In this weather, if we go out without any preparation, we will die."
"Humph, let's not go to Hope Village."
"What they said is true. Why should they delay their trip for you? That is the mission assigned by the Lord. If they return late and are punished, will you take their place? What qualifications do you have to gossip here?"
"Since you like Hope Village so much, you should follow us!"
"I'm going to go anyway. I'll go after the hot weather is over."
"That's right. So many caravans have gone there. They will definitely come back. We can follow them then."
"Those who go ahead can be considered pioneers for us."
“…”
At the scene, people started arguing and took different positions.
But one thing is consistent.
The territory of Hope Village and its "commodities" began to come into the sight of more and more local residents, leaving a deep impression in their minds.
One more ~
