Chapter 168: How did I, a coppersmith, become the mayor?
Tonghai has been busy lately.
The cumbersomeness of Yancheng's various affairs was far beyond his imagination. Even if most of the proposals would be rejected by the town council, there would be a large number of proposals left.
Sitting in the mayor's room in the council hall, Tonghai looked at the rolls of sheepskin on the table and felt dizzy.
I'm a coppersmith, how did I become the mayor?
Man, it's just unpredictable.
……
Not long ago, Tonghai returned to Yancheng to visit the elderly Shangli.
The old mayor looked at him with his last right eye, leaning on crutches, and said earnestly: "I have proposed to the council that you should be the mayor." The parliament has passed. ”
Tonghai was at a loss when he heard this.
Mayor?
Putting the word together with oneself is like polishing pottery with a hammer.
Tonghai does not understand.
If he wants to say that he is good at anything, in addition to the coppersmith craftsmanship that has been abandoned for many years, the only place he is suitable for is probably the city guard.
"Don't worry, listen to me."
The old man slowly explained: "In this world, different people have different talents. ”
"Some people are talented and full of whimsy by nature, such as the deceased mayor of Yulian; Some people are tough and intelligent, such as the medicine spoon prophet of Yaocheng; There are people who can arouse passion and zeal in everyone, such as the Prophet Dorununu. ”
"And you, my friend, have an ability that no one else has."
"You symbolize fairness."
Shang Li smiled, and the wrinkles on his face deepened.
"Not anyone can lead the Northern Temple Army to complete this great counterattack and recovery."
"Tonghai, they admire you, trust you, and are willing to follow you."
"It's not because you're tall and powerful."
"It's because you're always the first to charge, and when you shout to charge, you're always the first to charge at the enemy. You face the power of the gods, you treat everyone equally, you liberate every slave, you treat every soldier like a brother. ”
"The fairness and charm in you make everyone have confidence in you and believe that it is right to follow you."
"The existence of the City Council allows many people to participate in the decision-making and advice of the city, and what leaders need is to use the capabilities of more people and have the support and trust of all citizens. You are the best fit and will be the best mayor. ”
Tonghai said, "But I don't know anything." ”
"No one knows everything."
The old man shook his head: "You have been wandering outside for a long time, and your knowledge is far stronger than in the past. Now I ask you, have you exterminated all the slave traders? ”
Tonghai was silent for a while: "They are hiding...... I only killed twenty-seven. No trace was found. ”
"Got it? My friend. ”
Shang Li whispered: "Those despicable and crazy, conceited and arrogant, malicious and dark, they will be quietly hidden. We can't tell from whom or when they will appear. ”
"So what we have to do is light a fire, so that most of the world is shrouded in light, so that the gloomy darkness cannot stand."
"It's a pity."
A trace of melancholy flashed in the old man's eyes: "If I had more patience with him, more guidance and affirmation at the beginning, he might not have been radical step by step, and eventually caused a disaster." On the contrary, it will become a talent that will make Yancheng more brilliant. ”
Tonghai doesn't think so.
A jerk is a jerk!
He had been trying to give the merchant a blow to the head, but the bastard fled so fast that no one could be found when the city was broken.
"So, stay."
Shang Li's dry hand grasped Tonghai's powerful arm and said, "Yancheng needs you, and the people also need you." ”
"If you want to eradicate slaves once and for all, turn this city into a real beacon! Let the flame of fairness shine on the whole world, and let slavery become a representative of scorn and contempt, it will be a new battle! ”
Tonghai agreed.
But the main reason is not what Shangli said earlier.
It's because Shang Li is too old, his energy is getting worse and worse, and the whole person is visibly haggard and tired.
Tonghai didn't want the old man to work so hard to death.
……
Tonghai's mayoral career has stumbled along the way.
He misses the days of solo adventures, always dangerous and camping with food. But it was a simple and pure life, just like being a coppersmith in the past.
A knock on the door interrupted his thoughts.
"Mr. Mayor, the archaeologist Fabiani has come to visit you, do you have time?" The scholar clerk outside asked.
"Ask him to come in."
Fabiani walked into the mayor's office, and he told Tonghai about Pawa and expressed his greetings.
"Excuse me, is the museum already built?" The archaeologist asked.
Tonghai nodded: "It can be made public this month, and you will be the first to explain it then." What is the condition of the earthworm ranch over there in the dragon's nest? ”
"There are still a lot of them, and those earthworms are loaded onto ships by trolls and sent mainly to Saniro." Fabiani took off his hat and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hands.
Tong Hai pulled his beard, a little annoyed: "Yancheng is the best at trade, I didn't expect that there was no way to split the earthworms." The yield can't keep up, and the growth rate is too slow. ”
Fabiani smiled: "Mr. Mayor, in this world, only the Dragon's Lair can do this. Yancheng's earthworm farming technology has at least far surpassed Yaocheng. ”
"And so far, musk ladybugs have only been successfully cultivated in Yancheng, which is very remarkable."
Tonghai felt a little comforted in his heart.
For Yancheng, losing to no one can't lose Yaocheng.
This kind of twin-city complex, Tonghai also inherited from Shangli.
"It's the will of the gods." Tong Hai smiled slightly: "In the new era, we will lead the future of the Yao clan." ”
Fabiani should be reconciled.
He said in his heart that Yaocheng also thought so.
It's hard to say which side the gods favor.
For now, the gods prefer the Dragon's Lair.
……
After a day of rest, Lu Yao logged into the simulator again.
As soon as you enter the game screen, a series of notifications pop up in the interface.
[The split earthworm has caused a supernatural creature frenzy.] 】
[The proliferation of split earthworms has increased the number of transcendent creatures slightly.] 】
Fabiani invented a new profession: archaeologist. 】
Lu Yao scratched his head a little.
How did the split earthworm cause such a big change?
He switched perspectives and looked down over Yaocheng, Yancheng and Saniro.
Splinter earthworms have appeared in all three cities, but these earthworms have now been turned into a type of livestock for livestock and trade.
Most of the buyers are transcendent creatures who are very fond of this earthworm.
Lu Yao observed carefully and found it.
Splitting earthworms is to otherworldly creatures what meat, eggs, and milk are to pixel villains. The split earthworm has a mild personality, is not aggressive, and has a high meat production and a short growth cycle, and has become the first commercial livestock born on the extraordinary side.
Especially in the ghost town of Saniro, the port has the largest number of splinter earthworms and is also a transshipment center.
All three cities are experimenting with earthworm farming. Unfortunately, although the earthworm splits itself, it is not very productive in the city.
Lu Yao was suspicious in his heart.
From the ports of the three cities, there are a large number of earthworms, so where do these earthworms come from?
He traced the merchant ships all the way and finally found the source.
The Northern New World, the Dragon's Lair.
Outside the Dragon's Lair is bustling with activity these days, filled with horse-drawn carriages and wheelbarrows. The Ice Trolls pack the splendent and plump splinter earthworms into boxes and deliver them to the various parties, who take them away separately from the buyers.
Lu Yao's head was a little dizzy.
Say that the terrifying dragon's nest of the adventure dungeon, you made me a large farmer's market?
Pasha, the dragon of the dark sun, wouldn't have had so many ideas, it could only be the snowman's idea!
Lu Yao finds the snowman.
Jimmy is in the dragon's lair, displaying treasure chests on a display case.
Lu Yao typed on top of its head.
——?
"Kami-sama!"
The snowman was summoned by Lu Yao and was very excited: "Jimmy has been following your instructions and is cultivating Pasha well, and he is also very obedient, eating and sleeping seriously......"
"This is the treasure that the snowman and the Pasha have given you, and they were exchanged for earthworms from the piranha crabs!"
It presented a prop in both hands.
Lu Yao clicked and took a look.
……
[Whale Tail LV2]: Faith +1/hour, which can slightly increase the speed in the water.
……
There is a specialization in the art industry.
This is called doing a line and loving a line.
Lu Yao's brewing reprimand and accountability were instantly forgotten and typed on top of it.
- Keep up the good work and do a good job.
A big smiley face symbol popped up above the snowman's head: "It's Jimmy's honor to serve the gods!" Jimmy will surely collect all the precious treasures in the world for you! ”
