"We're in!"
Bletra pushed his way to the front with his wife and daughter. He was an orc who had married a half-orc and had half-orc children. He was not accepted by his clan and was driven out.
"Could you let us fill out a form first?"
The white rabbit gave them three forms.
"Everyone's information must be registered individually, and then hand it to me!"
White Rabbit glanced at the refugees watching outside and guessed that from today onwards, she and the other members of her squad would have to take turns guarding the territory's entrance.
However, there is not much printing paper left, and we need to go to Lord Sid to get more. Lord Sid is very tired from training troops and managing the warehouse, but it seems that the lord has not yet found a new steward for the territory.
Of course, these are things she cannot question.
She then produced a three-page document outlining the territory's rules and regulations.
"After your whole family has finished reading, you all need to sign here. After that, you will need to pay a head fee of three silver coins and a public facilities usage fee of one silver coin before you can go in!"
"Our territory doesn't have daily payments, only monthly payments!"
Four silver coins a month isn't much, it's even a reasonable price, but it's four silver coins at once. If you don't like the accommodation and have to move, then you'll lose out!
However, many people gritted their teeth and prepared to enter Qin territory. The other territories were all about the same, not to mention the long distance. The monthly headcount fee for this territory was only one silver coin per person. In other territories, the daily payment was 10 copper coins, and the monthly headcount fee would be 3 silver coins!
"I'll register too!"
A dozen or so people were willing to register to enter the territory, while the rest either didn't have the money, were considering it, or were just observing.
However, they can set up camp anywhere outside the territory, as long as they don't block the gate or litter. This information is posted on the wall outside the territory. If anyone urinates or defecates indiscriminately or litters and makes the gate filthy, they will beat them up. It's not as simple as just kicking them out!
"Everyone who has registered, come over here!" After their facial information was entered.
The white rabbit let those who had registered in come in, led by a gray rabbit.
"I'm going to take you to the public washroom to clean up now. Our lord hates filth and uncleanliness the most. You've already paid the public facilities usage fee in the territory, so you must shower and wash your hair at least once every two or three days. If you can't queue up to wash in the public area, then queue up at different times. If we find any of you smelling bad in the territory, we'll kick you out!"
The people who came in looked at each other in bewilderment. They knew there were many rules in this territory when they read the territory's regulations, but they didn't know there were so many rules that even bathing was regulated.
"But they'll charge extra for water when we take a shower, and we really don't have that much money!"
"Yes, could you please do us a favor and allow us to wash once a week?"
They knew that since the fee per person was so cheap, they must have found a way to make up the cost elsewhere. That's why they even have to regulate bathing!
The gray rabbit turned around, put its hands on its hips, and said, "Washing once every two or three days is already the maximum! Besides, you have already paid the public facility usage fee, so naturally we won't charge you for water! Letting you shower is to ensure the cleanliness and hygiene of our territory! Although other territories have prevented the spread of plague, there are still minor diseases that circulate because people don't care about cleanliness!"
The gray rabbit spoke so earnestly in the hope that these people would understand how important cleanliness is.
However, the people below were stunned.
"Can I use any water I want when I shower? Is it all free?"
One person spoke up, and the others stared longingly at the gray rabbit.
"Of course you can shower whenever you want, but you still need to conserve water. There are time restrictions for us to enter the shower area in batches. If we are found wasting water, we will have to pay extra! We will also be punished by having to clean the public facilities!"
The people below looked at each other, and all saw astonishment in each other's eyes.
Although this territory has many rules, it's cheap, has a good environment, and the water is free!
Look at the surrounding environment, it's clean and tidy, it really deserves to be well protected.
Then the gray rabbit said to them, "Now, men and women separate. Men with children should take their boys and women with their girls and go into the shower room and toilet separately. If a man is with a girl and a woman is with a boy, they should help each other take their children into the shower room. I don't see that there are many children, so everyone can help each other. The older children can take a bath by themselves!"
"Each person has fifteen minutes. Before you go in, cut off any tangled or messy hair you can't clean!"
Everyone cleansed themselves according to the rules of the territory.
After a short while, he came out looking like a completely different person.
"It's good that it's clean and has water to use!"
"That's right, I haven't showered for a month. When I go to the territory to take a shower, I have to pay a headcount fee, taxes, and tolls. It's hard to even take a shower these days!"
"Then we made the right choice in choosing this territory. After this wash, I feel like I've lost two pounds. It feels so good!"
"Absolutely! I felt sticky all over before, but now I feel so much lighter, and even the air feels fresher!"
The gray rabbit counted the number of people and then asked them questions.
"If you choose to stay in a hotel, the hotel is just 500 meters ahead. If you choose the tent area, I will take you to the tent area next to the hotel. Our tents are all numbered, and the spacing between them is regulated. You can stay together and not disturb each other!"
These refugees have no money to stay in hotels, and they all say they want to stay in the tent area.
The gray rabbit led them to the tent area.
The clean and tidy area was something they couldn't believe or even imagine.
As they walked along, they noticed that the roads and sidewalks were very clean and bright. They were surprised to find that a separate platform had been built in the tent area, so they could set up camp without worrying about rainwater flowing in.
There is also a row of small nightlights on the side.
"The night lights will be turned on at 7 p.m. and turned off at 6 a.m. If you want to wash up or use the restroom, go to the area where you just showered. If you want to cook, cook in the common area in front. Please be careful with fire. If a fire or other fire occurs, you will be responsible for the compensation!"
"Furthermore, I want to emphasize again that fighting is not allowed within the territory. If anyone violates the territory's rules, you can report it to the patrol team. The patrol team takes two shifts every day, and we patrol both on the ground and in the air. If there is any danger, call the patrol team. If we find anyone attempting to cause trouble or bullying others in the territory, we will have the patrol team or guard team handle it directly!"
If you want to stay in this territory, you have to follow the rules!
Brett held his wife's hand tightly. Having traveled to so many territories, this was the first time he had encountered a territory that made him feel so safe!
