"Then does the Lord want to use it?" Bayer naturally understood Zhou Bai's meaning. After sighing in his heart, he asked.
"Keep them all for now! They may come in handy someday. I just don't know if Fassal Village will attack again during the next territory war." Zhou Bai said.
"This time they lost an alchemy workshop and most of the warehouse resources. It will be difficult to recover in a short period of time. I guess they won't come again, right?" Bayer replied after a moment's hesitation.
"I hope he comes." Zhou Bai said directly, "If Fassal Village doesn't take action again, it means that the other party wants to fatten up Hope Village before slaughtering it. For example, when Hope Village becomes Hope Town, that will definitely be a perfect opportunity."
There was no way she could hope that the Marquis would change his mind about annexing Hope Village.
It was impossible before, and it became even more impossible after knowing the "advantages" of Hope Village.
Bayer's expression changed slightly.
Yes! Invasion-type territories are not just villages, but also towns and cities!
The invasion territories at the small town level are not promoted suddenly. Most of them are accumulated from villages. After annexing so many villages and towns, the strength is definitely extraordinary.
If Hope Village was targeted as soon as it entered the town, the difficulty would definitely increase many times, and there would even be a high probability that it would fail in the territory war.
...
...
Even if it had not been captured at that time, as long as it lost, the territory would be seriously damaged and it would be easy to get up.
Seeing Bayer's worry, Zhou Bai said directly: "So Hope Village just needs to stay at the level 3 village for a little longer. Also, the resources obtained from Fasal Village should be invested in Hope Village without hesitation."
When you are at the village level, accumulate more of your strength so that you can have the power to strike back when you reach the town level.
The Hope Village today is not the Hope Village that has just started.
Hearing Zhou Bai's words, Bayer's brows relaxed slightly, he nodded, and then asked: "Is there anything in Fasal Village that can be used?"
Hope Village has many favorable conditions. Sometimes we cannot always think about the bad things, but should also think more about the good things.
Speaking of which, their territory has gained a lot from dealing with Fasal Village.
Let’s not talk about anything else, just talk about the alchemy workshop, which has taken the weapons of Hope Village to a higher level.
For some other items, the quantities are too large. The Lord and Ding Qiurou have been constantly sorting out the warehouse and shipping out the goods these days. They should be almost done.
"The things that the system defaulted to as spoils of war in Fasal Village this time were very few equipment items. They were mostly resources, with fruits being the most numerous, and various seeds as well."
"The resources of Aberdovi Village?" Bayer's mind moved slightly, and he thought of Aberdovi Village that was previously occupied by Fassal Village. Aberdovi Village is mainly based on various fruits and vegetables, and they are also specialties unique to their territory."
"Yes, I guess it is very likely that the specialty fruits and vegetables of Aberdovi Village were targeted, so they attracted the people of Fasal Village. When they attacked Hope Village, they had not yet transferred the spoils of Aberdovi Village, so they fell into our hands." There was still some emotion in Zhou Bai's tone when he spoke.
In fact, the experience of Aberdovey Village also serves as a warning to Hope Village.
But it makes me feel a little sad to see a territory that has developed a reputation disappear like this.
No one can guarantee that their territory can always be based on the Stan continent. All they can do is keep moving forward.
"It's a pity for Aberdovey." Bayer said sympathetically. They knew from the residents who came later from Aberdovey that the lord of Aberdovey fought to the death and refused to surrender.
After hesitating for a moment, Bayer said, "If it were you, Lord..."
"I don't know what I would do if I really encountered such a situation. I just hope that our territory will never be in such a situation." Zhou Bai spoke truthfully. If she had not encountered such a situation, any simulation would be fake. She just hoped that she would have a clear conscience when the time comes.
"No matter what choice you make, Lord, we will stay with you." Bayer said seriously.
"Yeah." Zhou Bai agreed.
It must be said that it was because of people like Bayer that she gradually became clear about her responsibilities as a lord.
"Then I'll have people plant these fruits and vegetables! Maybe we can catch up with Fasal Village and seize the market that originally belonged to Aberdovi Village." Bayer said.
"Okay. In addition to these fruits, there are some other things. Let the staff of each department pick them themselves! If they can be used, just apply for them and write down the purpose. As long as it is reasonable, we will approve it. Let them play freely." Zhou Bai said.
The territory's current system is relatively complete and has developed to a certain scale. It is time to let each department operate independently.
"Is this okay?" Bayer was a little worried.
"Sure, we have the general direction. Let them play freely in the detailed directions. We are here to supervise them! If something is wrong, just remind them." Zhou Bai said directly. Sometimes, the territory only needs one voice, but sometimes, the territory cannot have only one voice.
Bayer looked at Zhou Bai, who looked relaxed, and smiled unconsciously, "My Lord, I'm afraid you can't wait any longer."
Although the lord has always been very competitive in the territory and is a role model for many people, he knows that if there is no external threat, the lord would probably be more willing to live a life of idleness and wait for death.
If I say this out loud, I'm afraid no one will believe it.
It really makes things difficult for My Lord.
Zhou Bai listened and said helplessly: "I am alone. If I put all the pressure on myself, I am afraid that one day I will not be able to bear it. Also, I am afraid that if I make a mistake, it will affect the territory and everyone in the territory. If there are more people, if one person makes a mistake, they can correct it immediately."
You can't do this alone.
The real thing is a mighty army.
Especially at this critical moment, we cannot make any mistakes.
"My Lord, you have done well enough." Bayer said without thinking. Even though he stumbled along the way, my Lord, you have fulfilled all your responsibilities as a lord. In his eyes, no one can compare to my Lord.
"Thank you!" Zhou Bai accepted the compliment calmly.
Sometimes, she also needs recognition from others!
"Let's go! You notify everyone! I'm going out for a walk." After finishing what she needed to do for the day, she went outside to kill some monsters to calm her mind.
"Yeah." Bayer nodded, then began to sort out in his mind the things Zhou Bai had just told him and the things they had discussed. After sorting them out, he prepared to get to work.
As for Zhou Bai, after Bayer left, he left the lord's mansion and headed straight out of the city.
Coincidentally, as soon as Zhou Bai reached the city gate, he saw Marquis Boyle and his team preparing to leave.
Blinking his eyes, Zhou Bai secretly thought that he had made a mistake.
Without hesitation, he went straight into the tavern nearby.
Just as he was about to find a seat by the window, he saw Viscount Conrad and his group staring at him eagerly.
"Hello, everyone." Zhou Bai paused, then walked to their table, found an empty seat and sat down.
"Why don't you, village chief, go and see the Marquis off?" Viscount Keynes asked with a smile, his eyes narrowed into slits, making him look especially like a fox.
"Given the status of the Marquis, I think it's better for me not to go and cause trouble." Zhou Bai asked, "Why didn't the gentlemen go to see me off?"
"It's the same as you, the village chief. The Marquis is of a high status and probably doesn't remember us very well. But I thought Hope Village had just cooperated with the city of Lovisa, so the relationship should be closer?" Viscount Keynes continued, and the last sentence was also tentative.
They just wanted to get some definite words from Zhou Bai so that they could feel completely at ease.
"It's just the school cooperation. I just hope that the children in my territory will have a future. As for other aspects, I don't think the Marquis will care much about them."
As soon as these words came out, everyone felt relieved.
As expected, Hope Village climbed up to the city of Loviisa, but still retained its autonomy.
The look in his eyes when he looked at Zhou Bai suddenly changed.
How was it done?
How could the Marquis give up such a big piece of fat meat as Hope Village delicacies?
At this time, Baron Barton suddenly spoke up, "If the Marquis is interested, will the village chief be willing to cooperate?"
When Zhou Bai heard this, he looked at the baron who had always been very low-key in surprise, and then said in a normal tone: "Of course! Hope Village is happy to cooperate with other territories. As a joke, the goal of our territory is to sell Hope Village's products to the entire Stan Continent."
"I hope the village chief's goal can be achieved." Baron Patton smiled faintly.
"Thank you for your good words." Zhou Bai also replied with a smile.
It’s just that there is one more thought in my mind.
Does this Baron Barton know something?
