The novice player, who was originally envied and looked up to by everyone, had a gloomy face, glanced at the people around him, and none of them were willing to take care of him, as if he was just a passerby, he couldn't help but snort coldly, clenched his fists, and turned around and walked towards the outside of the town.

Zhu Yan, who didn't know that he had become the center of the conversation, was a little surprised to see those players running out one by one, and was a little stunned for a while, he didn't receive the system information, so he didn't know why these players were so obedient, the archon just yelled, and they left quickly, in reality, they were not so obedient to their parents;

"Your Excellency, they, what's wrong with them?" Zhu Yan asked a little strangely.

"Hehe, don't pay attention to these outsiders, I think about getting something for nothing every day, let's continue to talk about the incident just now!" The archon continued with a smile on his face: "You just said that you only need to hire architects and planters, and you don't need to buy land, right? ”

"Yes, that's it!" Zhu Yan nodded.

"Can I understand that you already own a piece of land, that is, you already own a piece of territory that is entirely your own?" The archon asked tentatively.

Zhu Yan will keep the territory secret from other players, but he trusts the NPCs in the game very much, and nods and happily admits it.

"Yes, I've been given a piece of private territory, but I don't have time to take care of it, so I want to hire some helpers."

"I'm so surprised by you, Your Excellency, I'm glad that the Dark Elf Race has a tribe as powerful as you." The Archon said with excitement on his face: "I am sure that in the near future you will become a nobleman, and perhaps in the future you will also have a seat in the Round Table Council of Tedasia; ”

The Round Table Council of Tedasia? This seems to be another amazing piece of information. A smile appeared on the corner of Zhu Yan's mouth.

"The Round Table Council of Tedasia? What is this, can you tell me more about it? Zhu Yan asked.

"This, you don't need to know about this for the time being." The archon suddenly showed some uneasy expression on his face, "You just need to work hard to improve your strength, in the future, you will always know this information, let's talk about hiring." ”

The archon quickly changed the topic, and Zhu Yan knew that even if he asked himself, he would be rejected, which would make the intimacy with the other party decrease, so he naturally changed the topic.

"My private territory is two hundred and eighty-five acres, and it is still a first-class one, and the buildings in it are only halls, alchemy rooms, storage rooms, and plantations, and of course, they are all of the lowest rank;" Zhu Yan gave a general introduction to his territory, and finally asked, "Do you have any good suggestions for territory construction?" ”

"What, there are two hundred and eighty-five acres of first-class territory and four buildings? It's really remarkable, you know, if you buy it, the territory that can only be purchased at the first level is only 100 acres, and it is only 300 acres when it is promoted to the second level, and there is no building inside, so you have to spend your own money to build it; The town archon said with a look of surprise on his face.

"Unconsciously, I have obtained some territory information, and it seems that I will have to talk to these NPCs with good relationships in the future." Zhu Yan thought in his heart.

"My advice for the construction of the territory is that if it is not particularly urgent, then only an architect and a planter can be hired, after all, the construction of the territory is a long-term process, and the cost of gold is not a small amount; In the future, if you want to speed up the construction of the territory, you only need to hire again. The town consul continued.

The consul's words just touched Zhu Yan's heart, and the gold coins he currently has are not very many, and it is not suitable for large-scale development of the territory.

"Okay, then just hire an architect and a planter." Zhu Yan nodded.

"Hehe, that's good." Seeing that Zhu Yan accepted his suggestion, a smile appeared on the consul's face: "Then, the remaining question is, do you need the architects and planters you need to hire, do you need outsiders, or do you need local ones?" In other words, do you need to hire players like you, or NPCs? ”

"Can you still hire players?" Zhu Yan's heart moved.

"Is there any difference between hiring players and hiring NPCs?" Zhu Yan asked.

Hearing Zhu Yan's question, the consul of the small town, who was originally full of smiles, suddenly changed his face, his expression became dull, and his voice also became a mechanical voice, and he said word by word: "According to the latest political axe notice of the Earth Federation, in the game "Lost Continent", if players need to hire non-combat professions such as architects, planters, alchemists, and salesmen, please give priority to hiring players; If you hire a player, you'll get a 20% discount on your hiring fee, and for each additional month of hire for each player, you'll get a little more real-world federal honor points; The Earth Federation is a big family, and every citizen living on Earth has the responsibility and obligation to ......"

The small town consul said a lot of words, but the ultimate goal is to let Zhu Yan give priority to hiring players, no need to ask Zhu Yan to know, these players must be those unemployed people sent by the political axe idle personnel placement center, Zhu Yan once met a player clerk in the NPC store, recalling that he almost became one of them, Zhu Yan couldn't help but shudder.

However, hearing that hiring players will have the benefits of federal honor points every month, Zhu Yan is still a little moved, the employment fee is discounted by 20%, Zhu Yan doesn't care very much, originally he can get a 20% discount on any consumption in the Unholy Alliance, these two discounts cannot be enjoyed at the same time, and he can only choose the one with the largest discount; But this federal honor point, you can't care less.

In the real world, federal honor points represent a person's social status, and only those who contribute to the Earth Federation will receive federal honor points.

At present, there are only 2 federal honor points in Zhu Yan's identity information, which are obtained because he has worked for several years and paid a certain amount of personal income tax.

"Your Excellency, do you understand? Do I need to repeat it again? The town's archon's face regained its brightness and asked.

"Hehe, no need, I already know it very well." Zhu Yan hurriedly refused.

"In that case, what is your Excellency's choice? Of course, while it's recommended that you hire players first, it's okay if you stick with NPCs, but those benefits and perks aren't there. The Archon continued.

The Earth Federation Political Axe can only use preferential measures to guide players, and cannot force the order to only hire players and not NPCs, which is a violation of human rights, players can sue in the real world, and it is definitely a lawsuit, and when the time comes, the Federal Political Axe will pay a high amount of compensation for losing the lawsuit;

"I decided to hire players for both." Zhu Yan said.

"A wise choice, Your Excellency!" The Archon smiled and said, "There are all the junior architects and junior planters here, please pick two at random, of course, if you need intermediate or higher architects and planters, you can also let me know, however, I don't recommend that you hire intermediate or higher architects and planters, because for the first level of the territory, the junior ones are already fully competent." ”

Zhu Yan nodded, he had already understood this information, but he still smiled and nodded his gratitude for the kindness released by the archon.

"Player Name: Builder, Surname: Male, Level: Level 2, Occupation: Junior Architect, Side Hustle: Warrior, Experience: 3/100, Employment Cost: 1 Silver/Day"

"Player Name: Cement Craftsman, Surname: Male, Level: Level 3, Occupation: Junior Architect, Side Hustle, Thief, Experience: 5/100, Employment Cost: 1 Silver/Day"

……

"Player Name: Xiaocao, Level 3, Surname: Female, Occupation: Junior Planter, Sideline: Dark Herd, Experience: 12/100, Employment Cost: 1 Silver/Day"

……

In front of Zhu Yan's eyes, a light curtain appeared, which contained many players' career information, there were fifty people on each page, and there were nearly three hundred people for Zhu Yan to choose from.

So much, Zhu Yan shook his head and exclaimed, thinking about the more than 200 million people waiting for the political axe to be placed, Zhu Yan was also relieved.

These players all have similar surnames, they are all beginner classes, the difference is only that some experience points are high, and some experience points are low;

Zhu Yan looked at the names and picked two at random, and told the consul;

"Okay, please wait a minute, I'll tell these two to come over right away." The town archon said.

After a while, the two players walked in, and after the two walked in, the door snapped shut again, making the outsiders waiting outside stomp their feet.

"Hey, are you going to hire the two of us, looking at your level, it's not very high, I didn't expect it to be so powerful!" A girl in a cloth dress said in surprise.

The name on the top of the girl's head is not hidden, it is called "Finger Sand", she is a junior architect, about twenty years old, she looks delicate, and her shoulder-length short hair looks very neat;

"Having your own territory so soon, maybe you're the first player of the Dark Elf race to have your own territory, congratulations!" The other girl said with a smile.

The girl's name is "Clover Grass", and she looks about the same age as "Sands", with a ponytail, a melon seed face, and big eyes, and she looks very cute.

Seeing that the two of them had arrived, the consul began to read out the contract in a serious manner, including the daily work tasks of the two of them, they must obey Zhu Yan's reasonable orders, as well as working hours, salaries, and corresponding punishments, and they are not allowed to leak the information of Zhu Yan's territory without permission;
