Chapter 106: Self-Sufficiency, Is It Okay?
For Ellis and the others, compared to the small town of Soler where they are located, the overall environment of Hope Village is definitely not worth mentioning, after all, the small town of Soler where they are located is a territory of tens of thousands of residents, and the population and economy are very prosperous.
Hope Village is a small comparison with the small town of Soler.
When they first entered, although they had heard the residents of Yuxi Village mention the food here, they didn't pay much attention to it.
How can the food of a village compare to their small town.
The so-called commercial street, compared to their town, is even more shabby.
But they followed Bayer and Zhou Bai around the shopping street, and after eating a food called a hamburger, they had only a feeling left in their minds.
What I have eaten in the past 20 years or so has really been eaten in vain.
So, after the burger opened the door to a new world, Ellis and the others couldn't hold it anymore, so they started eating all the way from the burger restaurant.
"Tofu brain? It's so slippery***, I've never eaten it, it's sweet, it's salty, it's delicious."
"It's the first time I've tasted such delicious jerky, and the honey tastes really good."
"This meatloaf is also delicious, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside."
"Hash browns are good, so try them too."
"Glutinous rice balls? It's a little sticky, but it's ...... It's delicious."
"This fried bun is also very good, I like it so much."
「……」
"God, I can't fit my stomach."
"Me too."
「……」
With the passage of time, the mercenaries who were originally holding them completely let go of themselves, and they could not extricate themselves from the sea of food addiction.
After a while, everyone unconsciously ate their stomachs.
"Hiccup!" Ellis couldn't help but let out a long burp.
"How? Didn't disappoint you, did you?" Bayer looked at Ellis's appearance and couldn't help but smile and ask.
No one can escape the gastronomic temptation of Hope Village.
Those of them who don't have to eat can't help but spend their money on these foods, which are enough to prove the charm of these foods.
"Take any of these foods back, and they can be sold crazy in the small town of Soler! There are so many kinds of !! here." Ellis couldn't help but let out an exclamation!
The other mercenaries on the side all nodded fiercely in approval.
You don't need all of them, you only need one of them, and after you learn it, you can make a lot of money in any territory.
Zhou Bai heard their amazement at the food in Hope Village, and said directly on the side, "Speaking of which, I have plans to dump things to other territories."
She had originally thought of forming a team to go to the small town of Benguela and the surrounding local territories! This team of mercenaries is a ready-made candidate.
The most important thing is that this group of mercenaries is still a native resident, and they definitely know enough about the trade between their native territories to avoid many detours.
It's really better to come early than to come at a good time.
Zhou Bai's words instantly attracted the attention of Ellis and the others.
"Where are you going?" Ellis asked subconsciously.
Obviously, he really thinks this business can be done.
It's just that he knows better that behind these foods, there is a food recipe of his own, even if he knows how to do it, without a formula, he is afraid that he will not be able to reproduce such a perfect taste.
….
If you really want to do business, you can only carry it, and it is still a short-distance transportation.
Glancing over the map, he instantly settled on several nearby maps, including the small town of Benguela.
The town will have a population of tens of thousands, and the market is definitely big enough.
This business can be done!
"The main thing is the small town of Benguela." Zhou Bai said, and the location he said was also right in Ellis's mind.
Ellis listened, and hurriedly said, "Then I propose it
The food is easy to carry, and the food at the convenience hall is good, and the town of Benguela will definitely be very popular with professionals."
As a mercenary, Ellis likes the food of the convenience hall, and it is definitely the best way to survive in the wild.
Of course, if you enjoy it, other foods are better.
But who made them now in business!
"In addition to the food, we hope that there are other good products in the village." Zhou Bai said, and walked directly to the carpentry workshop on the side with this team of mercenaries.
Did she know that Meng Chengzhou had hoarded a lot of wooden products recently.
In business, Meng Chengzhou is forward-looking.
For the carpentry workshop, Ellis also doesn't care, in many territories, the carpentry workshop belongs to the eliminated buildings, and most of the people who enter the carpenter are ordinary residents of the territory, and even many territorial carpentry workshops have long disappeared in the territory.
So when they saw that there was a carpentry workshop here, even if they had the best location, they didn't think to go in and have a look at it.
But after entering here, I found that there are many things in it, which are quite interesting.
"This carpentry workshop is not a territorial building, it was run by a craftsman in our territory." Zhou Bai said directly.
Ellis listened, and was a little surprised, it turned out to be private?
Ellis then stood in front of the display case and looked at the wooden products.
After looking at it this way, I found that there were quite a few types that the other party had made.
Kitchen supplies: chopsticks, forks, spoons, bowls, plates, barrels, colanders, plates......
Daily necessities: wooden basins, wash shelves, sofas, beds, bunk beds, wardrobes, bedside tables, dining tables, desks, chairs, bookshelves......
Weapons: spear handle, wooden bow, whale tooth sword, bayonet......
Paper supplies: under development
Weapons are good to say, no matter how special the wooden ones are, they are a scum in front of weapons made of other ores, and no one will chase wooden weapons, which is suitable for ordinary people below level 10.
But other lifestyle products are different, as long as they can be used in daily life.
The low-level inhabitants of other territories also use woodwork, but the other territories definitely don't do as much as the comfort here.
What he didn't expect was that the price of these products was really very low.
"These products should sell well among the ordinary people of other realms, right?" Zhou Bai looked at their expressions and said directly.
In particular, bunk beds are definitely a highlight among ordinary residents, and they can save a lot of space!
"Yes, but it's easy to copy." Ellis came back to his senses and said bluntly.
The ideas here are really good, but the technical content is also very low, such as bunk beds, basically buy one, you can easily learn.
….
As soon as their front feet were sold well, things like those on their back feet were already flying all over the sky.
It's really incomparable to the recipe of food.
"Even if it's a copy, it's a big deal relative to this market, because they don't have so many craftsmen, they won't have such a good price, and most of the carpentry workshops in other territories are eliminated, aren't they?" Zhou Bai bluntly said that this world is too low on life professionals, and their survival pressure is too great, and they need to spend a lot of time and energy to collect materials, and this money is not something that anyone can earn.
And when no one is willing, they hope that the village willing.
Of course, if they are really willing to earn this hard-earned money, they can only say that they should earn it.
"And these are just the basics, and we can carve and even color some of them, just as fine as ironwork, but with a better feel." Zhou Bai said directly.
The people of Blue Star lack everything, but there is absolutely no shortage of creativity in this world.
She had asked Bayer about them, and she knew that the most popular furniture in other realms was iron and leather furniture, which was expensive and prevalent among the aristocracy, who also sought bright colors.
under the same conditions
If the wooden furniture can be made as beautifully, but the price is only half or even less, it will definitely become a new choice for many people.
Listening to Zhou Bai's words, Ellis's eyes lit up.
If you can do the follow-up points that Zhou Bai said, then this will indeed be a good business with small profits and quick turnover.
"If that's the case, it's good quality and low price." Ellis said, his heart couldn't help but burn, and then he sighed, "It would be better if the territory could have a mobile merchant with regular cooperation, the people of the elf clan are afraid that they will like this kind of furniture, and when the price is high, they are afraid that they will also be willing."
Elves advocate nature and primitiveness, and these utensils are really primitive.
"Itinerant merchants? Seems to have this profession?" Zhou Bai remembered that there is a businessman in his profession.
Even her grocery store, because there is no professional in this profession, is still selling goods automatically.
"Yes, there are very few people who can start this profession, it can be said that it is one in a million, but if you can open this profession, you will definitely become a guest in all territories, not only human territories, but also the territories of other races."
"Why?" Zhou Bai said curiously.
"Because the Itinerant Merchant has the most complete map of the Stan Continent, which is automatically opened when he opens his profession, so as long as the Wandering Trader can master spatial magic, then he can go back and forth freely between all the territories, which means that he has enough goods in his hands, so much that he may be able to meet the needs of all the territories, and those territories will naturally welcome him." Ellis said, envy in his eyes.
Itinerant merchants, and the idol of all their mercenaries.
After listening to Ellis's description, Zhou Bai was instantly envious.
This profession is so awesome!
If she had this profession, would the future of Hope Village still be worried?
As if he saw Zhou Bai's intentions, Bayer on the side reminded lightly, "Because of the strength of the mobile merchant, this profession also carries a restriction, he must be a free man forever, and he cannot become a resident of a certain territory, once he is branded, he will be rejected by other territories, or even hunted down."
….
Therefore, it is impossible for a lord to become a itinerant merchant.
The existence of the profession of itinerant merchant is a bridge between various territories, and it is destined that he cannot be owned by individuals.
Zhou Bai listened, and instantly let go of all his thoughts.
She prefers to be in the same place rather than wandering around.
If it weren't for the fact that she was now carrying a territory, she thought she would prefer to lie down and eat and wait for death.
"You could hire our entire mercenary team to do the business for you, but how are you going to work together? How will the benefits be distributed?" Ellis had already figured out the benefits of this, which was much more valuable than the mission they were waiting for in the mission hall in the small town of Solaire.
Although the small town of Soller is more prosperous than here, it is also more competitive.
Now, they're unique in Hope Village!
And in a short period of time, it is enough for them to make a good profit.
They didn't want to swallow the business, and of course they couldn't, they could only represent one territory, so that it was possible to successfully sell something in another territory and keep their wealth.
Although Hope Village is just a village, it is also a backing.
Zhou Bai in front of him, I'm afraid he can represent the territory.
"I do want to hire you, but I'm not alone, I will organize several caravans to go to different territories, and I need you to lead the way when the time comes, but the distribution of benefits, according to your rules, I believe that you will not let you down." Zhou Bai said seriously.
With the funds she has on hand now, she can indeed swallow such a large plate, but there is no need.
It would be best to have people from all over the territory who have the ability and ideas to join in.
As long as the inhabitants of the territory are rich enough, she, the lord of the lord, will also be rich.
Moreover, the purpose of her leadership is not to make money, but to enable the territory to integrate into the Stan continent faster and develop better, which is comparable to making money
Much more important.
"Okay." Ellis agreed.
He didn't know Zhou Bai, and he didn't know what Zhou Bai's identity was in this territory, but he believed in Captain Bayer, since Captain Bayer didn't stand up, but let Zhou Bai negotiate with them, this means that Zhou Bai has this ability and qualification.
Ellis's nod was also expected by Zhou Bai.
However, after it was confirmed, Zhou Bai once again thought about what to do next, originally planning to explore the surrounding territories in the form of tasks, but now with the addition of this team of mercenaries, she can do more and more comprehensively.
Even, it's a good opportunity for her.
A good opportunity for her to become the head of Hope Village.
Just do it, Zhou Bai was already ready to go back and get a detailed plan at this time, then looked at Ellis and the others, and continued, "Next, you are free to do so! I'll go and get ready first, and I'll look for you when I'm ready."
"Okay." Ellis nodded in agreement.
Immediately after, Zhou Bai left.
After Zhou Bai left, Ellis looked at Bayer, "Captain, let's go to the tavern together!"
Have a good chat.
It was the captain of Bayer who asked them to come to him.
But now it seems that this refuge is not the same as they thought.
But obviously, it's a good choice!
In this short period of time, he could almost foresee a bright future for his mercenary team in Hope Village.
It's just that he needs something more to measure how long this future can last.
"Hmm." Bayer listened, raised an eyebrow, and still responded.
Afterwards, the group walked together in the direction of the tavern.
As for Zhou Bai, after returning home, he immediately adjusted the change of the plan, and then re-conceived a plan.
After the plan was completed, Zhou Bai clicked on the lord panel and directly released a task.
[Mission: Develop an external development plan for the territory]
[Nature: Trigger Quest (Triggered by Hope Village Resident Zhou Bai)]
[Reward: Acting village chief position, contribution]
[Target: All residents]
The next moment you finish posting the task.
Zhou Bai directly submitted the plan he had just written.
It's okay to post tasks for yourself and admit yourself when the time comes?
Zhou Bai smiled, in fact, this feeling of going through the back door seems to be a bit cool?
The three watches of two chapters in one are coming!
(End of chapter)
A summer of joy
