Chapter 65: A Lifelong Enemy

Cheng Li obviously also realized that his ability was insufficient, and he didn't have the original scholarly arrogance, so he pulled Jiang Qiu and said ashamedly: "The old man is incompetent, he can't teach such a high-level book, I wonder if the village chief can find some low-level books, so that the old man can show what he wants in his life?" ”

Jiang Qiu's prediction was right, this pleated face really gave the task, but unfortunately Jiang Qiu was really powerless about this task, so he had to flee.

The task of the pleated face was to have no hope, and Jiang Qiu went to the bazaar again, which was the territory of the new scribe Wu Gui and Jiang Qiu's biggest source of tax revenue. In terms of importance, Wu Gui can be said to be Jiang Qiu's household secretary, although Jiang Qiu is very unhappy that he wants to get a salary, but basic respect is still needed.

"Village Chief." Wu Gui was a newcomer after all, not as rude as those old men, he honestly greeted Jiang Qiu, and then silently followed behind Jiang Qiu.

Jiang Qiu rarely enjoyed the treatment of the village chief, and immediately overjoyed, and praised Wu Gui fiercely. Anyway, when Pleated Face first came, he stood outside the council hall and waited for two days without eating or drinking, why did it become like this now?

Jiang Qiu walked around the market and found that something was wrong. Shuitian Village is now said to be not big, but it is not small anymore, more than 200 people are close to 300 people, but the market seems deserted, and there are few people in sight. Jiang Qiu remembered that he had come here last time when the market had just been built, and that time it could be called a sea of people, and basically the entire village gathered here to exchange their needs.

Of course, Wu Gui only arrived in Shuitian Village today, and this pot can't be thrown off people's heads. However, he was now the head of the bazaar, and Jiang Qiu could only ask him.

Wu Gui heard Jiang Qiu's question, smiled bitterly, and said, "There is nothing to produce in Shuitian Village, except for some tools produced by the blacksmith shop and the carpentry workshop, there are no other goods to sell at all. In addition, the residents of the village are mainly farmers, and the grain is self-sufficient, and there is nothing else to stimulate their desire to consume, so the market is naturally deserted. ”

Jiang Qiu nodded thoughtfully and agreed with Wu Gui's analysis: "Then what do you need my help with?" ”

Chief Jiang is also not ready to ask for face, of course, he doesn't seem to have this thing, so he almost said that you have any task for me.

Wu Gui was an honest man, and he didn't see Jiang Qiu's sinister intentions at all, and replied, "Thank you village chief." I looked at the accounts of the bazaar, and the day when the market had the most transactions was the day when the bazaar was just completed. In addition to the novelty, Qian Xi's caravan also contributed to the formation of such a large trading volume, and the goods brought by that caravan accounted for more than eighty percent of the transaction volume that day. Therefore, I think that in order to develop the bazaar, it is imperative to form a caravan, and only by bringing fresh goods from other places can the villagers arouse their desire to shop, and I also ask the village elders to think more. ”

There is really a task, but unfortunately Jiang Qiu can only be defeated again.

Jiang Qiu also thought about forming a caravan, but the prerequisite is that there must be a merchant, how long has there been a grocery store lying there in the building list? It's not because there are no merchants, it can't be built until now, how can there be idle merchants to form such caravans with unknown benefits. Take a step back and say, even if there are merchants, the caravan needs capital to do business, and the head of the village is poor now, how can he have spare money to do this.

Jiang Qiu finally saw through the sinister intentions of the plan at this time, and just now he thought that this was the discovery of their conscience, leaving a way for the player to live, but he didn't expect that the front of the road was a cliff. Doing tasks can improve the people's morale, how can there be such a good thing. Looking at the difficulty of these tasks, it is difficult to complete any of them, and eight out of ten are pure dreams.

The tasks given by Cheng Li and Wu Gui all involve money, which is obviously a means to trick players into money, but fortunately, Lao Tzu saw through it in time, and Jiang Qiu had to praise his wit.

It's a pity that what can I do? After giving himself a thumbs up, Village Chief Jiang wiped away his tears and continued his mission journey, hoping to receive a simple, and most importantly, cost-free task, after all, there are more than 200 people in the village, and hope is at his feet.

The planners have proved that they are worthy of the meager salary with their strength, and they have completely understood the psychology of the players, and the level of the pit people has reached the world-class level.

……

Three days later, the banquet in Shuitian Village was held as scheduled.

Xu Qiu did a good job, and before it was time for the noon banquet, the outside of Shuitian Village was bustling with NPCs who came to participate nearby. Jiang Qiu roughly estimated that there would be more than 100 people, and there would be people coming over one after another, according to the speed, and by the time it officially started, it would be about 200 people. Combined with the population of Shuitian Village itself, it may be able to exceed 500.

It seems that the foodie attribute is a talent that has been inherited from China for 5,000 years, especially without spending his own money, and this talent is brought into full play.

Fortunately, Xu Qiu had been prepared for this, and a large vacant space in front of the conference hall was cleared out, and tables and chairs collected from various houses were placed, which could barely be handled.

Jiang Qiu originally wanted to help a little, but after being clumsily rolled a few times by the old man, he consciously ran to the entrance of the village to greet him.

"Alas, I said otaku, you, the village chief, are like this, and such an old man dares to shake his majesty in front of you?" The female soldier didn't dare to let go of a fart in front of Xu Qiu, and as soon as she came out, she estimated that she was far away from the old man, and she shouldn't be able to hear his words, so she began to taunt Jiang Qiu.

Jiang Qiu didn't eat this set at all, squinted at the female not in charge, and said disdainfully: "If you have the ability, you go in and say it in front of him." ”

The time was just right, and the guests entered the village one after another, and Jiang Qiu was not arguing with the female soldiers, but cheered up and carefully observed everyone who passed in front of him.

The first acquaintance to arrive was not Jiang Qiu's expectation, the lord of Liuyan Village became a blood wolf. Such a good opportunity, Jiang Qiu removed all cover-up and took the initiative to invite others to Shuitian Village, if he didn't come to investigate the enemy's situation, he wouldn't be worthy of mixing in the Tiancheng Guild.

Jiang Qiu is also helpless, Shuitian Village is such a big place, and it is seen as a whole by people like this, and there is no secret to speak of in a short period of time. But the problem of people's hearts is pressing here, and Jiang Qiu can't take care of it, so he can only take one step at a time.

Tiancheng Blood Wolf hugged his fists and smiled at Jiang Qiu very angrily: "I heard that a banquet was going to be held in Shuitian Village two days ago, and I couldn't help but come and join in the fun. Come uninvited, I hope you don't mind, brother. ”

"Brother Wolf is polite, please inside." Jiang Qiu also had an explosion of acting skills, and welcomed the Tiancheng Blood Wolf into the village with a smile on his face. There is always a way for people to enter this kind of public banquet, and you can't stop it. With his small belly and chicken intestines, he was seen as a joke,
