"Your Excellency Hugo, please forgive me for being rude. I feel so guilty right now. ”

Adrian is a real clown, the kind of burlesque guy. He knew a bit of tricks, was quick, had a knack for amusement, and usually followed a circus from town to town, or performed on the streets and taverns to earn a living.

The news of the elven ruins in the Black Forest has brought a large number of adventurers together, and the fame of Harmony Village has gradually spread. Adrian didn't want to go on an adventure, he didn't have any ambitions, he just felt that a crowded place was easy to make money, so he paid the fare and rushed to Harmony Village.

But when he arrived in the village, Adrian didn't even have the money to go into the tavern for a drink. It just so happened that Inisha solved the security problem in the village by recruiting manpower, so he joined the patrol and ate his food.

Adrian doesn't have noble ideals, and it's hard enough to fill his stomach and live. His diligence was entirely due to the fact that he was too poor to withstand any losses and had to work honestly. But he never thought that he would be rewarded for not being lazy.

"Mr. Hugo, I'm really happy to be rewarded. I used to make a living by being humble and making people laugh, and I never thought that anyone would identify with me. Words really can't express the gratitude in my heart, I can only say 'thank you'. ”

Adrian lowered his head and remained in a bowing position for a long time, choking up. He even wanted to lie down and kiss Zhou Qingfeng's upper. But Zhou Qingfeng refused without hesitation, "Mr. Adrian, please stand up." I believe that every human being has his or her own dignity. ”

For a clown, the word dignity is simply extravagant. When Zhou Qingfeng emphasized that he must stand up straight, the tears in Adrian's eyes finally couldn't stop flowing. Behind him, the villagers and adventurers hired to work for Harmony Village were even more shocked.

If it weren't for the poor and destitute of the mix, few adventurers would accept the village's employment. They say that it sounds like a group of people who travel from south to north and are free. But in fact, they can only be regarded as chickens and dogs, and no one has ever taken them seriously.

Expulsion, swearing, discrimination, this is the daily life of a clown.

Zhou Qingfeng stretched out his hand and helped Adrian up. Mr. Clown wiped away his tears, thanked him, and slowly stepped back. The commendation ceremony continued, and Seth called out another person's name, this time an ordinary villager, who was also commended for his honest work and not being lazy.

Elsewhere, it is a great honour for a lowly untouchable to have a job under the ruler. They must be humble, obedient, and always keep their heads down.

But Zhou Qingfeng didn't think so, never thought so.

The scene of the ceremony gradually became solemn, and everyone present suddenly became eager to hear their names being called. Everyone who was commended also became extremely honorable, enjoying the spectacle and proudly accepting the ridiculously humble badge of the model worker.

In total, more than a dozen people were praised, and their faces were red with excitement, as if they had won a battle, and as if they had dug up a huge treasure. Those who did not receive the badge felt very jealous, even though the benefits of this honor were not much.

This glory seems to come easily, but everyone present knows better - this glory is too difficult and too difficult to come.

"Once again, I would like to thank all of you who have worked hard for the construction of the village, and I hope that others will follow their example and do better in their future work. I am absolutely not stingy with honors, status and awards. ”

Zhou Qingfeng gave a brief speech and shook hands with all the model workers before ending the commendation ceremony. Everyone was stunned, and most of them participated in such a formal event for the first time in their lives. This is comparable to extortion, robbing homes and houses, and abducting and deceiving people.

Whether you understand it or not, you subconsciously feel that this is a way to improve your identity, break the ceiling and move to a higher level. They will no longer be limited to their past humility and have a new platform for development.

When the crowd dispersed, Zhou Qingfeng was still followed by Inisha and Kai Li and other backbones of the village. They originally thought that Uncle Zhou was going to do some tricks to tease people, but after the commendation ceremony, they were all thoughtful.

Zhou Qingfeng used reality to tell everyone - as long as you have the ability and are willing to work hard, even clowns and untouchables can succeed. As long as you come to the Black Forest and work hard, you can achieve your dreams.

"Know that the power of example is endless. As long as I set good rules and set a good example, the people below will naturally work hard, and I don't need to work hard every day. We must let the masses of the people create miracles.

I call this the 'Dream of Harmony.'" Zhou Qingfeng shouted the slogan unashamedly, "I don't ask about my background, I only do it." Break the shackles of the original class and give a new choice to those who have talents and dreams. What do you think? ”

Everyone rolled their eyes, especially the few who had known Zhou Qingfeng for a long time, and they were tired of hearing similar official accents. Although the content of his official tone is quite fresh every time, and the effect is very good, it always sounds like he is deceiving people to work for nothing.

Inisha rolled her eyes and said, "You are making excuses for being lazy, the situation in the village is not much better now." All of the people who came to us were a bunch of discredited people, including a lot of scum villains, but they weren't so easy to be obedient. ”

Kelly also said: "Why don't I declare in the village tomorrow that there will be no taboos in three days, and see how powerful your example is?" What will happen in the village? ”

Don't ......, Zhou Qingfeng immediately confessed and told him, "I'm afraid of you two, when I didn't say it, when I didn't say it." The high-pressure policy must continue, and those who dare to do evil must be ruthlessly eliminated. If you want to maintain stability, you must maintain stability! ”

In the case of the mixed situation of dragons and snakes in the village, stability is really the first element. Once hundreds of lawless adventurers are out of control, they will backfire against Zhou Qingfeng himself in minutes. When the time comes, he will have no other way out but to escape.

But......

"This scene happened once in Iron Furnace Village today. At that time, I gathered the leaders of most of the villages in the Black Forest to display the elven frescoes and domes. They also burst into tears and pledged their allegiance to me, pledging to follow me forever.

But in reality, they are all wallgrass. Whenever they are in trouble, they are nowhere to be seen. Those who can stand firmly with me are the lowest level with nothing and no way out.

Don't think I'm really lazy. I learned from the pain and felt that I had not really gone down to the grassroots level. I didn't promote the ordinary people who really did things. I let the leaders of those villages control the manpower and material resources.

From now on, this will change, and the power has been vested in me. I want people who are willing to take refuge in me, who are willing to be loyal to me, to have a dream and make it happen. Those who are half-hearted must be punished. ”

Inissa and Kelly were stunned when they heard it, and they couldn't consume this passage for half a day.

After Zhou Qingfeng finished speaking, he walked out of the conference hall proudly. The 'Shadow Shadow' who was guarding outside the hall leaned over and said, "Master, your speech just now is too good, and those people's ideological realm is too low to understand your greatness. Actually, I also have a dream! ”

"Go aside." Zhou Qingfeng had just delivered an important speech, but he was interrupted when his heart was high. He said angrily, "You dead horse, don't always think about money." ”

"Can't I have dreams?" 'Swift Shadow' jumped up angrily, "You're too bad as a master, just rob other people's money, and rob other people's treasures." You give me back that 'magic amulet'. I got it from a fat sheep with a lot of effort. ”

"You're a dead horse with a handful of bones, what do you want a magic amulet? Do you still hope to change careers? Zhou Qingfeng refused without hesitation, "The talisman is naturally worn by me, and it is of little use to you." ”

"Unscrupulous, how can you be so bad?" 'Swift Shadow' turned negative energy into teardrops, gushing out of his eyes, "If I knew this, I would rather stay in the dungeon than come out with you." ”

"Really?"

"Fake."

The master and servant gaged and mocked each other, and returned to their residence step by step. It's just that before entering the house, Sophia suddenly sent a message in Zhou Qingfeng's mind, "Brother Victor, someone is shouting for help in the Black Forest. ”

Now Sophia has many functions in the information network, and the work of '110' and '120' is all done by her. In order to control the information in the Black Forest as much as possible, Zhou Qingfeng said in the previous propaganda that he could use the 'Holy Light' to send a message for help.

It is really rare to send a request for help to Zhou Qingfeng. He asked rhetorically, "What happened?" ”

"There's a group of adventurers exploring the elven ruins, unwilling to wander around the periphery. They gradually deepened and had entered the core area of Silver Leaf City. They come back and submit a map and adventure journal in exchange for the 1,000 gold you set up to explore the reward. ”

"These people are in the core? How did you get in? ”

They said they had found a safe passage to avoid the dangers along the way, leading directly to the Elven Ancient Tree in the center of the ruins. I took a polygraph on them and passed. ”

Safe passage?

Zhou Qingfeng sighed slightly-those adventurers had finally made some achievements.
