It's so lively outside, I don't know what's going on, could it be that someone is going to come to our territory to make trouble? The Eternal King City has just fallen into our hands, and the NPC guards haven't had time to recruit yet, so this kind of thing is really possible.

Thinking of this, I immediately put away the city management panel and walked out of the city lord's hall, only to be directly stunned by the scene in front of me.

I saw that there were more than fifty people standing on the steps of the city lord's hall, all of them were NPCs from Lingyun City, blacksmiths, tailors, repairmen, craftsmen, miners, ......, all of them were talents that we urgently needed now, and there was no shortage of all kinds of professions.

And among this group of NPCs, there is one person I am very familiar with - Jon, the personal disciple of the owner of the pharmacy in Lingyun City.

Jon was silent in front of a crowd of adults, and his eyes brightened when he saw me, but he didn't immediately come up to talk to me, but his eyes had already told me that he had a lot to say to me at this time.

"Masters, what are you?" My second monk was confused.

"I found them all from Lingyun City." Leah didn't know when she had already appeared at my side, she stretched out her hand and pointed at Jon and continued: "Of course, apart from him, I originally wanted to find a higher level pharmacist, but this little guy insisted on coming, so I reluctantly agreed, if you don't have any opinions after reading it, we will officially hire them as the treasurer and chief technician of the stores in the Eternal King's City." ”

I was a little speechless: "But I haven't had time to scrape together enough gold, so what are we going to do to hire them?" ”

Moreover, what I'm more worried about is that we dug the corner of Lingyun City like this, so will Old Jason have a bad impression of us, I know that several of these people are the big shopkeepers of the NPC shop in Lingyun City, and all of them will definitely affect the business of Lingyun City.

Leah smiled slightly and said: "You don't have to worry about this, I have already told them in advance, come to work with us and double the salary, but you have to be in arrears for a period of time before you can slowly cash it out, and they all agreed." ”

"By the way, there is also that little guy, he doesn't want to be paid, he serves us for free, and I can't refuse if someone proposes it himself."

I can guess that Jon came here to repay the favor, and that Speed should continue to pay him for his work with me, so don't worry, but it's definitely a credit to Leah that the others are here. If nothing else, Leah Beauty should have graduated from Da Lanxiang, right? Excavator technology is to learn well, and you can dig people without money.

Then Leah gave me a bill, which was the amount she had promised each of the NPCs to be paid, and I quickly skimmed through it, and for someone like me who is used to seeing a lot of gold, it was basically within the acceptable range, so I left it all with a wave of my hand!

After all, we are poaching people directly from other places, and the treatment must be improved accordingly before anyone is willing to come. Moreover, I didn't think about making money on these functional stores, the income generated by the guild territory in the future will mainly come from the virtual business development of the territory, the depreciation of gold coins is too fast, and it is not realistic to rely on items such as supplies and repairs to make money to pay benefits to guild members, and it would be good to be able to afford the expensive taxes of the territory every day.

With the addition of more than 20 NPCs, the façade of the various functional stores in the territory has been propped up, and our territory finally has some city appearances, and then we will find a way to recruit a group of NPC mercenaries to act as guards and be responsible for maintaining law and order in the castle, so that the Eternal Royal City will be perfect.

The recruitment of mercenaries is still entrusted to Leah, she has more experience than me in this regard, and my energy is mainly focused on the construction of the castle, each performing its own duties and showing its strengths, so that the Eternal Royal City can quickly embark on the fast track of rapid development.

Then, I spent some time charging conditions for players to repair and purchase supplies in the territory, the players of the main alliance and the sub-alliance of this guild are all 60% off, Xiaolong is also 6% off, all members of Tian Mengjie's Wolf's Den Guild are 80% off, and those who kill gods are 88% off, these are all conditions that have been negotiated with them in advance, and they can't break their promises.

As for our rivals such as the Battle Emperor Palace, Lingyan Pavilion, etc., repairing and purchasing supplies are also punitive charges that are 1.5 times higher than those of ordinary players. It's still the same sentence, love doesn't come, it's best if it doesn't come. The Despair Ice Field, the Northern Mountain Range, and the Endless Sea are all the best leveling places at this stage, if they are not willing to endure the high fees of the Eternal King City, they would rather spend a lot of time walking over, or even directly abandon these few leveling areas, it will definitely affect the improvement of the guild's average level, isn't that exactly what I want to see?

After finishing these, I casually opened the income and expenditure list of the territory, to check the income of various resources, just set up the transmission fee in less than half an hour, has already earned thousands of gold coins of the transmission fee, this is still in the middle of the night to update the lowest online rate of players, if it is replaced by the peak period of the player online during the day, this number can at least be multiplied dozens of times, a day just to transmit an income of millions of gold coins should not be a problem, pay the territory tax should be almost the same.

However, I then found that in addition to the income from gold coins, the output of the four major materials needed for the construction of the territory, ore, wood, stone, and grain, was actually zero. What's going on? Haven't we already recruited a bunch of miners, lumberjacks, stonemasons? There should also be family members who follow them into the Eternal King City who are willing to farm, why is the income of the four major resources still zero?

I was about to go out and grab an NPC to ask why I hadn't started working yet, but suddenly I found that there was a small line of text after the various resource production numbers, indicating the number of corresponding resource production areas that the territory currently actually occupies. If you click on it, the number of mines actually occupied by the territory is zero, the number of quarries is zero, the number of lumberyards is zero, and the number of rice fields is also zero......

If there is nothing, how can people carry out production activities? At the end of the day, it's all my fault.

However, I don't know the exact location of the various resource producing areas, so if I go out and search aimlessly, it will be a waste of time, and I may not be able to find them. I wanted to find Leah to ask, but she didn't know when she was out again, and she wasn't in the city at all.

Suddenly, I had an idea, why don't I go to those NPCs and inquire, although they may not have come to such a far place to engage in production, but after all, they have always eaten this bite of food, and it is estimated that they should have their own unique methods on how to find relevant resource production areas.

The first thing I went to look for was Uncle Gülen, a miner, and I saw Uncle Gülen sitting alone on the threshold smoking a cigarette from a distance, with a sad expression on his face, obviously thinking about something.

"Uncle Glenn, why are you unhappy, I don't know if I can help you?" I immediately stepped forward to say hello.

When Uncle Gülen heard this, he raised his head and saw that it was me, and immediately stood up and saluted me, with a very respectful expression: "It turned out to be the deputy city lord, it is like this, just now I went out with tools to prepare to go to mining, but the nearby mine was occupied by a group of hateful thieves, not only did the mine not be mined, but they were almost injured, these thieves are really hateful, if only someone could stand up and drive them away." ”

It turns out that this is the case, no wonder the production of the territory has not been carried out in time after recruiting so many NPCs, and it is estimated that the situation encountered by other production NPCs is similar to that of Uncle Gülen.

I immediately patted my chest and said, "It turns out that it's such a trivial matter, uncle, you tell me the coordinates of the mine, and I'll go and get them away now." ”

Uncle Gülen was suddenly shocked: "No, Deputy City Lord, how dare you trouble you to do it yourself." ”

I said with a big grin: "I can't help it, the brothers have gone home to hug their wives, now I am the only one in the city, if I don't come forward in person, will I have to wait until tomorrow, the production of the territory cannot be stopped." ”

Uncle Gülen was finally moved by what I said, "Okay, then there will be Deputy City Lord Lao." ”

"Ding~!"

System Prompt: You accept the territory task [Clean Up the Mine], the task content, accept the commission of the miner Uncle Glenn, drive away the bully in a mine located in the southwest of the territory, restore the production of the fù mine, and you will get a rich reward after the task is completed.

After the task is in hand, the system automatically prompts the coordinates of the target mine, from the big map, the mine is only fifteen minutes away from the Eternal King City at most, according to the regional division, it should indeed belong to us, but now it has been forcibly occupied by others, and now I want to take it back as a matter of course.

After leaving Uncle Glenn's new home, I didn't immediately leave the city to reclaim the mines, but continued to circle around the other production NPCs, from whom I received tasks to clean up the quarry, lumberyard, and rice fields.

The distance between several resource production areas is not too far, and I happened to do the four tasks together along the way, which can save a lot of time.

Yellow sheep is very fast, and after a while, I found the mine according to the task prompts, only to see a large number of laborers with mine hoes scattered around the open-pit mine and digging indiscriminately.

I was immediately furious, and I pulled out the frost spear from my back and shouted: "Everyone, listen, you are limited to get out of this mine within half a minute, otherwise don't blame me for being unkind." ”

The next moment, all the busy laborers stopped what they were doing, stood up and looked at me, and then they all took action - not to get out of the mine immediately, but to use the mine hoe in their hands as a weapon and kill me at the same time.
