Chapter 144: The election of the hall master
The Clown Emperor's instinctive questioning made the man behind him suspicious, and he walked past the Clown Emperor and stood inside the door: "What? You two know each other? ”
With such a malicious question, the Clown Emperor naturally understood what it meant, and must have thought that I was the ear brought by the Clown Emperor.
"I don't know, but I just had a one-sided relationship."
Fortunately, the Clown Emperor is quite upright, just telling the truth plainly, without adding any oil and vinegar.
The man in the lead looked to be in his forties, and his mature face was very energetic, and it was hard to imagine that such an experienced man would have such despicable words.
He walked up to me and looked approachable, "Young man, what are you doing in this room?" ”
"Drink."
It may have been that my overly calm answer was a bit unexpected, and the man began to look me up and down slowly from the beginning of disdain.
"Drinking alone? Don't you feel a little bored? ”
"I have no friends, so I can only form a pair of shadows and drink alone to drown my sorrows."
According to the normal plot, I should be more panicked, so as to fit my current situation.
But the truth made them very disdainful, not only did I not panic at all, but sat calmly on the chair, constantly rubbing the halberd containing killing intent in my hand, staring closely at the man in front of me, and looking at him, not letting half a point.
The atmosphere was silent for a few seconds, I put my weapon in my backpack and stood up with a smile: "Oh, I see, I came in just now and accidentally touched the wall, I guess you misunderstood, right?" I'm really sorry, but I'm ashamed to be a person who is used to being so hairy and embarrassed to cause trouble to a few brothers. ”
The face of the man in front of him had begun to darken, but at present, no one continued to deteriorate the situation, he just shook his hand and said, "That's fine." ”
Then he turned around and left with the little brother behind him, turned the corridor and went downstairs.
The Clown Emperor at the door glanced at me with a somewhat complicated expression, but he didn't say anything more, just left the tavern with the group.
It was a touch-and-go situation, and in the blink of an eye, I was left sitting alone.
This matter is not trivial, the gang construction has not yet taken shape, and there are already other forces eyeing it, as the head of the gang, I must not sit idly by.
But after thinking about it, I don't want to make it clear in a hurry, now my identity is still kept secret from the outside world, not to mention the position of my hall master, outsiders will not even know that I am in the gang of the sea and the world, as the so-called long line fishing for big fish, since God let me see this today, I might as well put this matter aside for the time being, and tell the sea that I am afraid that it will startle the snake.
I'm not afraid of thieves stealing, I'm afraid that thieves are worried about it, I'm afraid that this matter is more than one family, and too hasty action will startle the snake, so that those ghosts who are ready to join the gang will hide deeper.
After thinking about it like this, I was determined to make up my mind, and I already had an idea in my heart, so I was ready to be killed with one blow at any time.
When I returned to the gang, the gang had already taken shape, and the general architectural plan was completed, leaving only some details to be taken care of.
Xiao Wang led me to familiarize myself with the various locations, and he supervised from beginning to end, knowing better than anyone else.
"Our current gang wall is made of stone, and the cost of a higher city wall is too great, after I discussed it with Brother Hai, I don't have to worry about it first, and then we can make plans when we mine materials by our own personnel in the future, which can save a lot of money; Even the system gift, plus the sea with the reputation of the helper, we now have a total of ten NPCs, the number is too tight, so the guards have not been set up yet, but they are used for each profession to settle down. ”
Walking through the gang center, the marble paved streets are very textured to step on, and this is the center of the cross street.
"In the past, there were medicine shops and forging shops here, and the medicine we picked in the future can be directly operated and digested by ourselves, and the forging shop has not yet opened, because we have not prepared materials such as ore in the early stage, so we can't open it; Going over there is the equipment shop, this shop is the main storefront, now I am directly responsible for the jurisdiction, the idle equipment in the future, replacement equipment and the like, can be paid for it, can be directly exchanged for gang points or equivalent income, how to choose, all in the individual. ”
Xiao Wang said that the painting made me very surprised, he really deserves to be the royal military advisor of the sea, and the business methods and details are really mature.
The station itself is not big, standing on this side of the wall can be seen at a glance on the other side, but with a lot of buildings and people enrichment, so that this small place looks quite large, at least it is better than the average novice village, Xiao Wang set up a circle of guard towers along the wall, counting a total of eight, one on each of the four corners and four sides, because of the shortage of NPCs, so now hire brothers in the gang to be on duty in shifts, because a lot of upgrade time has been lost, so the sea allocated a part of the funds to these brothers as wages.
But I couldn't figure it out about this establishment, "Brother Wang, the funds for these brothers are also a lot of expenses, is there any special significance in focusing on the establishment of the sentry system so early?" ”
Xiao Wang nodded, "The question is on the point, we have suffered a loss in this area during the internal test, because there is a possibility of wild monster attacks in the help station, and there is also the possibility of other forces attacking, so it is necessary to detect and prevent it early, and after a delay of more than ten minutes, the loss to be suffered is far greater than these salary expenses, and you have also seen that just these things in front of you, and a circle of stone walls, have already spent millions, which is more important, and you have to calculate the account." ”
I stretched out my thumb and praised Xiao Wang: "You two are really authentic businessmen, if it were me, the gang would be nothing more than a group of brothers who would fight monsters, monsters, and monsters all day long, where would you see so many places, look at the pomp and circumstance you arranged, this is the game, this is the living world." ”
"It's a blessing to suffer, I actually envy you."
Xiao Wang's indifferent sigh made me curious, no matter what aspect, I am much inferior to him, why envy me?
"That's what I said, I still have to learn more from you, Brother Wang."
Xiao Wang turned his head to look at me, his eyes were deep, "If I could be at your age, I have seen so many scenes, I have had so many experiences, and now my achievements should be more than these, the people who open the way are great, but the bitterness of them is difficult for people to understand, today's so-called maturity, that is again and again failed and discouraged to whip out, just graduated with Brother Hai, because of his youth, caused too much trouble and loss to Brother Hai, but Brother Hai never gave up on me, he valued my seriousness and diligence, Of course, I have to do my best to repay the kindness of such an encounter. ”
Topic 1 involves the word "life", and it will always be involuntarily much more serious.
But Xiao Wang is also right, maybe I can't compare with him in any aspect now, but I have a huge advantage that he can never match.
That's youth.
"Oh, look at me, it's heavy to chat, come, I'll take you over there to have a look, we have also set up a warehouse over there, and a large batch of basic raw materials such as wood and stone that can be used in the future will be stored there."
After officially walking around the station, I, the irresponsible hall master, finally had a preliminary understanding of my own gang, and a little later, the sea called the eight hall masters who had been appointed before to the conference hall and held a small meeting.
"The quota of the branch hall has been submitted, as long as the branch hall is officially approved, then you will go directly to take office, the rights I promised before, you can also officially get in your hands, I called everyone today, I just hope that everyone will get to know each other, they will all be the leading class in the future, and they must get along and cooperate well."
The sea said this, and everyone smiled shyly.
The top spot is naturally where the sea is, followed by Xiao Wang, as the earliest founding veteran of the gang, Xiao Wang's merits and dedication are obvious to all, and everyone recognizes them.
Xiao Wang stood up and took the lead generously: "Maybe a few brothers are busy in private, so there is no intersection, but I am very familiar with a few of them, and I will not repeat too many words, but also congratulate everyone on having their own deserved reward, and make persistent efforts in the future, and contribute more to the development of the gang. ”
"Good! Good! ”
The wonderful speech attracted applause and encouragement from everyone.
After Xiao Wang sat down, the white feathers flew behind him.
Although this guy joined very late, but no one dared to question his strength, others used time and sweat to win the favor of the sea, this guy is the face of the sea at a great price, and the starting point of joining the gang is a lot higher than ours.
"What about me, everyone knows each other, luckily, I got a championship by luck, in fact, it's just a vain name, I still have to learn more, I am the master of the second branch hall, the white feather is flying, the name of the branch hall: Fuhu Hall."
At this point, I slowly felt that something was wrong, the sea had discussed with me that there would only be six branches, but now he called all eight candidates, and the intention made me a little confused.
Moreover, listening to Xiao Wang and Lao Bai's introduction, the names of their branch halls have been determined, and after thinking about it carefully, I suddenly felt a little bad.
Could it be that the sea has already selected six people and communicated the names of the branch halls to them privately?
Then I don't have any news at all! The sea really excluded me???
Groove ???
However, I still thought a little too much, and after Lao Bai finished introducing himself, the sea suddenly shouted to stop the ongoing communication meeting, and then went out the door with a frown.
We looked at each other, not knowing what was going on.
A few minutes later, the sea came back from outside, and the face was heavy.
"The official staff of the game sent a message that our branch quota has been approved, but ......"
"But what?"
"Only six were approved."
"Six......, six?" "What's the matter, is the formalities vacant?"
The sudden change aroused everyone's criticism and inquiry.
I was the only one who sat there silently, silently, just to see what the old deflated calf of the sea was playing.
This guy is very strong in business, and his acting skills are even more perfect, and he even made up the reason for the official staff to send a message, if he hadn't greeted me in advance, I would have really believed his nonsense.
"Alas", I saw him sigh a little melancholy, and then raised his guilty eyes to look around at the people on the table, especially me, and looked at him fiercely, "Since the system doesn't follow people's wishes, then we can only follow the system, and now we will set up six branches first, and the rest, I will try to fight for everyone in the future." ”
Xiao Wang on the side raised his hand and said, "That...... Brother Hai, how are you going to divide it? ”
The sea touched his chin and meditated, and then spit out a few words with a heavy face, "That's it, fair competition, the competition is too troublesome, and it's not interesting to talk about merit, after all, everyone has contribution, you can't step on one to help the other, and a bowl of water must be level; In this way, the personal prestige of the hall master is very important, and he will also contribute greatly to the gang in the future, so let's use personal prestige to compete for the time being, and decide the current branch number first. ”
Okay, I think I already know what's going on.
I'm afraid these two people have already rehearsed this double reed.
The rest of the time, it is a mixture of joys and sorrows for a group of people.
Although they are both candidates for the head of the hall, there are always people who can't make a move on one-sided personal prestige.
"White Feather Flying, Personal Prestige: 8750."
"Wolong Yin, personal prestige: 6770."
"Tianzi No. 1, personal prestige: 4300."
"Writing and meditating on the maple leaf, personal prestige: 1000."
"Juque, personal prestige: 560."
"Chi Ran, personal prestige: 870."
"Good as a magpie, personal prestige: 2000."
To be honest, except for Lao Bai and Xiao Wang, I don't know the rest of these people, and the [knight] who I always thought might get a quota is not in this group now.
"Xiaoyu, it's time for you to report."
When it came to my side, Xiao Wang kindly reminded.
I turned my head to look at the crowd, and then at the sea, and he had worried about my reputation before, so I didn't quite understand what he meant.
He just nodded and motioned for me to tell me the truth.
I showed the data, a little embarrassed.
"One...... More than 10,000 points......"
