Chapter 27: Change
With Yunlang's status and financial resources, if you want to recruit guards, you only need to climb high and shout, and you will definitely be gathered. However, people's hearts are unpredictable, the sea is immeasurable, and how many people are really willing to serve him!
The current situation is sinister, and there is no time to choose one by one, so we can only use some special ways to screen out a small number of core personnel, and then on this basis, gradually grow!
As for whether this Mike has other thoughts, it can basically be ignored for the time being. At least he is not a spy, he also has a certain strength, and he is really willing to work for Yunlang, and this is enough!
In the envious eyes of everyone, Mike stood up with excitement, gave another salute, and waited for Yunlang's next appointment and orders.
"Hehe, that's good!" Yun Lang smiled and praised, and continued: "My guard, so far you are the only one, you start with a guard, and when the guard has a certain size, you will be replaced!"
"Yes!" Mike immediately took the order.
He's not in a hurry at all!
Because Yun Lang's words have been clearly stated, when the guards have a certain size, they will adjust his position, which shows that he will definitely not stop at the position of an ordinary guard.
At the same time, he, who is more proficient in human affairs, also vaguely heard the voice outside the words, that is, Yunlang has to recruit more people and join the guards one after another. In this way, wouldn't his fellow adventurers also have a chance to change their fate?
His heart gradually warmed up, and he subconsciously looked back at his companions who were also members of the Wind Wolf Adventure Group......
Under the gaze of Yun Lang, the discussion gradually subsided, and he continued to announce: "The rest of the guards, except for those who were attacked and captured, will also have an additional reward of 50 silver coins each, and I will ask my guard Mike to distribute the money in full later." As for those who were attacked and captured, although they behaved badly, at the last moment, they could be regarded as making up for it a little, and the merits were offset...... An additional 5 Silver Coins will be awarded per person. ”
When the words came to his lips, he hesitated slightly, but finally changed his previous plan slightly, and always felt that he should still affirm some of their behaviors, such as when their own side has an advantage, they at least know that it is useless to resist. As a result, five silver coins were awarded in the end.
It's not much, and it's a bit shabby compared to the 50 credits awarded to another group of guards, but it's better than nothing!
Perhaps, it is precisely because there is no contrast that there is no harm.
Those guards who received 50 silver coins were particularly happy, while those who only received 5 silver coins were in mixed moods!
However, no one was discouraged, and no one was too carried away. Because their goal is to set up a guard and want to recruit guards......
It seems that as long as he performs well enough, he will have a chance to join his guard!
"My lord, a few carriages over there are a little damaged, affecting their use, I know some repair skills, please allow me to repair them......." One of the guards couldn't wait to take the initiative to request.
"My lord, the weather is hot and humid, and the corpses that have been placed for a long time are easy to infect the living, so a few of us volunteered to use the rest time to dig a big pit and bury these corpses...... and a group of guards took the initiative to ask for help.
"My lord, there are a lot of wild fruits nearby, I picked some by the way......." Christine, who was still tired just now, was out of breath, and in a blink of an eye, she was holding a large bag of the purple wild fruits that Yunlang loved to eat, and ran over.
........ Vivien on the side was stunned!
On weekdays, where are these monkey essential oil slippery guards so diligent, not to mention that they are all actively requested!
She was a little suspicious that her master was proficient in the dark magic of controlling the mind...... Otherwise, how could these guards have forgotten their "true nature"!
When the two of them were alone, she reminded with some concern: "Master, these guards are probably so active in order to be able to join your guard.......!
"Haha......" Yun Lang smiled brightly and confidently: "Vivian, don't worry about this, since they are willing to work hard now, I will also have a way to make them continue to be willing to work hard in the future......"
After a pause, he pointed to the listless maids and manservants not far away, and admonished, "Don't forget them, they are also doing things seriously." I remember that above the maid, there were also senior maids, and the position of chief maid, and above the male servant, there were also gardeners and deacons, and these people were not of high status now, and few people must be willing to spend energy to deliberately win them over...... As for loyalty, it can be solved slowly, so let's give the benefits first! Let all these surviving maids be promoted to senior maids, and the male servants will be promoted to gardeners. According to the corresponding salary ration, they will be paid three months' salary as an additional reward!"
Vivien immediately announced the matter after responding to them one by one.
Ben was a little depressed, and the poor maids and manservants, when they heard the good news, they were immediately refreshed and cheered. Originally, I had something to do, and I couldn't help but speed up, even if I had nothing to do, I subconsciously found something to do for myself.
When a series of rewards were distributed, the decadent and oppressive atmosphere was swept away, replaced by a thriving and hopeful atmosphere!
You know, this is a team that has been injured again and again, and more than half of the casualties have been killed so far!
Yun Lang stood on a high place, looking at the busy people from afar, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief...... In a sense, the effect he wanted was roughly presented!
He believed that when the scene in front of him reached the ears of some people with unmistakable accuracy, the slightly loosened version of the situation might be even more shaky.
In this way, he has the opportunity to pry the whole situation and turn the passive into the active!
However, before that, he still has to make the necessary preparations.......
。
After burying the dead and putting their belongings in order, and about to set off again, the eight guards who had taken care of the captured goblins, along with several others who had gone to look for them, returned.
They were all disheveled, disheveled, covered in sludge and foul-smelling. However, it does not seem to have been caused by the fighting, but fortunately there were no injuries.
"My lord, we didn't want to escape, let alone escape with this goblin, but after being attacked, we were worried that those people would snatch the goblin, and in the end we couldn't explain it to you, so we thought we were clever and wanted to hide the goblin, so that when we see you again, we can prove our innocence!" one of the tall and handsome young guards explained the reason.
His condition is better than the others, at least there is very little sludge on his face, and his face can be clearly seen at the moment.
Yun Lang looked at the purple goblin first, and was surprised to see that most of its injuries had healed. But I didn't care about my identity, so I didn't take a closer look.
When his gaze shifted to the eight, he swept them one by one again. Anyone who is seen by him will subconsciously avoid his gaze and be greatly disturbed.
This is the majesty that comes with power!
He thought in his heart: after walking around the forest, the goblins are intact, and there is no shortage of eight people, maybe most of them are fine, but it is difficult to ensure that there are no fish that have slipped through the net, and now the team that has finally been cleaned up cannot enter the sand again, otherwise it will be very bad for the future...... It seems that it is still necessary to find a way to let them leave voluntarily together!
Yun Lang pondered for a while before he said lightly: "I am very pleased that the eight of you can take care of the goblins so well, I originally planned to let you escort the goblins all the way to Shining Gold Town to prove your innocence." But now that the situation has changed, I will temporarily adjust the punishment for you, and now you have two choices, one is to leave here with a gold coin that I promised in advance, and find another way out, and the other is that there is no reward, but you can continue to stay in the team, you ...... You can choose!"
Eight people, you look at me, I look at you, they are all waiting for others to answer first, and they are all afraid that Yunlang's words will contain traps.
Vivian snorted dissatisfiedly, and urged on her behalf: "The master's patience is limited, make a choice as soon as possible!"
Eight people reluctantly made their own choices, seven of them chose to accept the reward and leave, but one person chose not to reward the money, and must stay......
"My lord, I choose to continue to play for you!" The handsome young man with a western face took the initiative to make a different choice.
"Oh, tell me why you chose to stay?" Yun Lang was really a little curious, but also reminded seriously: "Tell the truth!"
"My lord, I was originally from the Wind Wolf Adventure Band...... If you covet this money and leave here, you will be looked down upon by them in the future!" replied the handsome man.
"Oh?" Yun Lang's gaze turned to Mike, the guard standing straight away from him, full of questions.
"Returning to my lord, Gru is indeed a member of the Wind Wolf Adventure Group, he is not a bad person, but he is a little clever, and when he fights, he is a little desperate ......" Mike still remembers the old feelings very much, and is willing to say a fair word for Gru.
"Hehe, since Mike confirmed it for you, then I'll leave you this time!" Yun Lang smiled, and asked the handsome guy Gru again: "Do you understand now, why did I pick you out alone?"
After Gru breathed a sigh of relief, he was also extremely embarrassed and replied truthfully: "At that time...... I felt like I couldn't beat those goblins, so I didn't use all my strength, and I wanted to run away at any time......."
The people of the original wind wolf adventure group all snickered, and they seemed to know all of his little problems!
