Chapter 22.2-B: The position of village chief

·

In the name of the Lord of the Labyrinth Camp, you have appointed the captain of the second team of mercenaries as the captain of the guard, effective immediately.

"Thank you, I won't let you down!"

The second group of mercenaries collectively knelt down on one knee, and their joy was palpable.

Regardless of which team has more shortcomings, judging from their competition statements alone, the second team is the most in line with the actual situation of today's labyrinth camp - 44 civilians, 34 merchants, almost half of the trading population, and people's livelihoods are biased towards export. Itinerant migrants, adventurers from afar, and bustling traveling merchants in the teleportation array, ensuring their peace of mind is what prosperity needs most.

Although external security and popular support are also important.

The mercenaries retreated. The other two teams didn't look too depressed on their faces, but you later learned that they had made an appointment, and the two teams that lost the competition would later become official guards. After all, the specifics of who to hire as a guard were up to the captain of the guard.

The creation of a guard means that you will need to spend 12 gold coins per week to support the cost of its basic operation. Only a stable weekly income and expenditure can support a fixed project and ensure the morale of subordinates.

Before leaving, your captain of the guard handed over to Hathaway a follow-up plan for the next steps, in addition to strengthening internal security.

You tilt your head to look,

Hathaway flipped the plan over.

"You'll see later. ”

"Secondly, Leia is safe and sound, and is now flying outside to find plant seeds to rearrange her room. Hathaway pinched a small gem with her fingers, "This contains a spell to expel Leia from the main material plane, and it can only be fired once. Genius of the carpenter...... Unfortunately, it is said that he died in the attack of the shark man. ”

The fastest swimmer among the merfolk also died in that attack, and I am afraid that only a miracle can be reversed at that time.

Hathaway beckoned,

Three more unfamiliar faces came over, and they had come to apply for the position of village chief of the labyrinth camp.

According to the laws of the kingdom, local lords are not allowed to use private soldiers to provide security on their behalf, nor can they directly interfere in the specific management of their territories...... That's what I said, but in fact, it's the lord who has the final say on the next floor. The village chief is the so-called "compartment". They could never really operate independently, as the law requires, because the power to appoint and dismiss personnel and appropriate funds was in the hands of the lord.

It's not that the laws of the kingdom require it to be meaningless, but there have been extreme cases where the speaker and the captain of the guard have killed the lord with a black letter, and the lord is too stupid and crossed the line, and this rare situation will not happen to you.

You look at the three candidates in front of you,

Corresponds to the information you just held in your hand. Unlike before, this time, the words "referrer" are written on the homepage.

The first candidate was the manager of the Old City Market, and the other two were Hathaway's talent selected from the Labyrinth camp.

You have already told Hathaway that you plan to use your own person as the village head, why do you still have market recommendations come to you for an interview?

"Because I want to give the ancient city market a little face, and the talents they stuffed over are several grades better than the ones I found. Hathaway wrote something with a blank face, "You can choose her, but I can't just brush her down." ”

Strange,

Why didn't you see someone recommended by the ancient city market when you were competing for the guard?

Hathaway replied without raising her head, "Because I don't have a face." At the time of the guild's life and death, it is disgusting that the ancient city market actually transferred two teams of mercenaries back. Although the administrator himself came to the door and explained to me that he had been deceived by the cunning Viscount of Polz, that he was indeed in a hurry, and that he had heard that the defensive battle should not be delayed the next night, I, at all, did not believe his words. ”

"It's all from the Present World. We decided to poach their cooks on the front foot, rejected the village chief they recommended, and they took away two teams of mercenaries at the critical moment, how can there be so many coincidences in the world. ”

Is Hathaway overthinking?

"If it were me who was a mercenary who took away my allies at a critical moment, I would definitely bring a generous gift to make amends, instead of just running over to apologize and explain with a smile. Tell me who wouldn't?"

......

Every refusal is risky, which is why the guards of Wuxiang Bay will be willing to lend you the air cooler when they are obviously not goodwilled. He has already offended the market, and he can't afford to offend the Adventurers' Guild.

Can you get started?—— Hathaway asks for instructions.

The first person recommended by the ancient city market will give you aristocratic etiquette. As a woman, she looks very elegant, less than twenty years old, young and beautiful, but elegant and calm.

"Salute you, honorable elder. I've heard a lot about you from Sister Wrenley, and you're a legend out of a storybook, and I can't help but look forward to it. ”

You are stunned and look at Hathaway...... Who's Ray? The name is a little familiar. Hathaway frowned and whispered in her ear, Wren was Raymond's wife.

The woman, Tong En, and Raymond nodded slightly to each other, smiled and beckoned to Elizabeth and Lucia, and finally stretched out a finger,

Leia,

Flew over and stopped at the woman's fingertips - what the hell is going on?

Hathaway secretly touched your back and explained in a low voice, "This woman is probably the best card in the hand of the Ancient City Market." To be honest, I originally planned to brush her down directly, but in the end, I don't know why I stayed in the interview ranks. ”

Leia's happy emotions flow back into your heart, and the woman has honey on her fingertips. Is this guy a picker or a butterfly, foodie!

"If I am fortunate enough to be your exclusive village chief, I will dedicate my body to you, my heart and soul to my work, and my loyalty to the kingdom. You'll have one to check all the keys to my office at all times, and you'll have one to check in my bedroom. By the way, I'm a bachelor workaholic. ”

"If I take office, I will start working on three things as soon as possible:"

"First of all, introduce the unaffiliated adventurers from other places to your guild, so that it is a win-win situation for law and order, adventurers and guilds; second, to carry out anti-corruption supervision, first of all, I will start with myself, and I will be directly responsible for the affairs of the affairs; third, to renovate the water system to connect the lake where the mermaids temporarily live with the river in the distance, which is not only convenient for people to get water, but also conducive to improving sanitary conditions. ”

"I'm ready for these three things, just waiting for your approval. What she means is that the three work plans do not have to be funded.

Why is Gucheng Market ...... Do you want to put in such a big effort to compete for the position of little village chief? And after you explicitly refused.

The second candidate salutes you: "Hats off, Lord Lord. Me, uh...... If you are lucky enough to be on duty, you will start paving the main road in the camp first. As you know, the labyrinth camp is built on the wilderness, the roads are uneven, muddy everywhere after rain, and it is not easy for pedestrians and carriages to pass. When the road is repaired, many things will follow. ”

The third candidate salutes you: "Honorable lord. If I can take up the position of village head, I will build a service response station as soon as possible to collect people's voices and demands, so that your decision-making can be more accurate. ”

Which are you going to choose?

A, recommended by the Gucheng Market, as the village chief about level 11. The note reads: "It seems to be the eldest daughter of a small aristocratic family, and Ren Elli says that she dances very well. The level of education and personal qualities of the aristocracy was completely different from that of the commoners. 」

B, the second person, rating 4, the note reads: "The camp was formed four years ago, until it became a small town. Before the town was destroyed by the Gnolls, he was a Speaker who was a fast colony. 」

C, the third person, rating 4, the note reads: "During his tenure as the head of a small village, for three years, in the face of countless bandits and the threat of jackals, no one died in the village, and finally everyone couldn't hold on anymore and left their hometown and abandoned the village. 」
