It is obvious to all that the development center of Tianyuan Territory is placed at Hope Village and Longteng Village.
But this does not mean that the neglected ‘Barren Bone Village’ and ‘Murloc Village’ have been standing still.
Getting on the coolie lizard transport truck and heading to the southwest of the underground city, Somo could see many hard-working little fishmen lying down and working in the sun.
The history of development in the future ruins has proven that these small fishmen who work hard and are paid extremely low wages are the best labor force.
Now they are doing equally well in Tianyuan territory.
Except for those projects needed by players on the construction route, the rest of the infrastructure tasks are outsourced to the Murloc Village.
Almost all the widened roads in the territory were built by them, and they were built to be smooth and straight.
As long as cement is poured and allowed to solidify, coupled with guardrail guidance, navigation at a speed of at least 80 kilometers can be achieved immediately.
“We have hired fellow fishmen to build a highway directly to Hope Village as soon as possible.”
“Not only will more goods be transported, but the residents of the shelter will also be able to transport more goods. We can also come to the village to spend money!”
Huangxiong said happily, as if he had already thought of how comfortable the days ahead would be.
But in his words, Sumo keenly captured a term.
Dwellers of the shelter?
Before, he had been studying how to distinguish the identities of Earth players from the natives of Blue Star.
This is to ensure that the two sides can integrate with each other without creating cultural and conceptual differences.
Now I didn’t expect that as time went by, the Blue Star people themselves gave the answer.
Hmm.
There is indeed a gap between the gophers and the wanderers, and over a long period of time they have even evolved into different classes.
This is a good idea. You can really try calling players "refuge residents" and Blue Star people "territory residents" to distinguish them.
"Barren Bear."
"My subordinates are listening."
"After being in contact with each other for such a long time, you should be able to find that the residents of the shelter are somewhat different from you, right?"
Stuck within the scope defined by the game Inside, Sumo asked cautiously.
"Yes, there are indeed many differences." The honest Huangxiong nodded heavily: "The wanderers may be used to having no fixed place and endless adventures, and their temperaments are always full of instability. But every resident of the shelter is optimistic. They are full of expectations for life, and they are always converting this expectation into motivation for moving forward. "
"What else? "
"Well, the residents of the shelter are very knowledgeable. Although they are a little young in terms of survival like the gophers, they know a lot of knowledge and skills in life, as well as technologies in various industries. Yes, Desolate Bones There are only a dozen people in the village who can write common words, and the others are 'illiterates' who can only speak but cannot write."
"By the way, the residents of the shelter are also very friendly, and they seem to have a sense of belonging. They are naturally friendly and can make people relax their guard involuntarily, especially the residents who always help us calculate prices and help us sell our goods every time they buy our goods. They are simply angels! ”
< br>Looking at the nagging Huangxiong, Sumo's face was filled with strange expressions.
He originally just wanted to ask the Blue Star wanderers in Desolate Bone Village what they thought of the changing strength of the earth's players.
Unexpectedly, he actually heard many things from Huang Xiong that he had never understood before.
"Is there anything else? Think more about it, are there any individual differences?"
Sumo has already reminded him about this, and if he continues, he may be forcibly muted by the game.
Huang Xiong frowned and tried to understand this sentence.
Suddenly an idea flashed in my mind: "Lord, you mean that the residents are progressing faster than us?"
"Yes, don't you find it strange?"< br>
Huang Xiong used "progress speed" to describe the special changes that have occurred in the players.
It seems quite appropriate.
In the eyes of the villagers of Barren Bone Village who do not know the truth, the residents of the shelter are indeed improving in strength.
Either the physical fitness is getting stronger, or the professional ability is improving by leaps and bounds.
Many people have weak bodies that have never exercised, and will make considerable progress after a period of time.
Especially for players who specialize in combat tendencies, the changes that have occurred are even more obvious.
“Strange?”
Huang Xiong had a trace of confusion on his face, feeling that he had not yet understood the deeper meaning of the lord’s words.
But looking at Sumo's expectant eyes, he could only bite the bullet and said:
"Lord, Huangxiong doesn't understand what you mean."
"If you are asking about everyone's opinion on the rapid progress of the residents of the shelter? Isn't that normal?"
"It's normal?"
Sumo was a little stunned, this was him A completely unexpected answer.
"Yes, they are smarter than us, their bodies are healthier, and their genes are even purer. It is natural for them to progress quickly. And if even this is strange, then mutants simply cannot "Explained alien creatures."
Huang Xiong continued to explain.
Although the wanderers living in remote seaport cities have not been able to come into contact with too many shelter residents, they have heard many stories about ‘distant places’ through passing ships.
In the long post-war era, human genes have been subjected to several rounds of cruel natural selection, and those who are not suitable have long been eliminated.
Those who can stay in large shelters or gathering places are outstanding talents whose genetic level far exceeds that of ordinary people.
They have excellent genes, strong bodies, smart minds, and will continue to evolve.
Those top powers have even carried out special training for this.
It is rumored that some children have the same physique as adults when they are just born, and will have abilities beyond mutants as they grow up.
In comparison, although the shelter residents in Tianyuan territory are outstanding, they are not shockingly outstanding.
And for these wanderers who joined later, the stronger the players show, the happier they are.
After all, this represents the overall strength of the territory. If the sky falls, there will be someone tall to support you. Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to shrink behind your big brother?
“Okay, it seems I misunderstood something.”
Anyway, the information I got from Huang Xiong sounds pretty good.
Now that the Rangers have this awareness, they may be able to relax some restrictions and no longer isolate players and indigenous people excessively.
Of course, the newcomers who have just come from outside must be separated first, until these people understand the rules.
Most of the busy day was wasted on the road.
After the metal aging disaster broke out, all capable cars were turned into a pile of scrap metal.
The coolie lizard carriage was not very fast, and it took nearly two hours to drive the seventy kilometers from the underground city to the Bone Village.
But as the fifth floor area appeared in front of him, Sumo only felt that his trip was worthwhile.
Compared with before, the Barren Bone Village has undergone earth-shaking changes.
In the past, residents lived in those abandoned buildings and set up various traps on the lower floors to guard against enemies that appeared at any time.
Now that the surrounding area has become safer, there is no reason to continue living there.
Next to the endless farmland, there is now a large construction site in full swing.
Construction waste recovered from the building is processed twice and becomes the best material for building houses.
The captives who were captured became the best labor force.
“These people were quite lazy at first, but after I told them that these repaired houses will be their residences in the future.” “It will become what you see now, Lord.”< br>
Huangxiong said with a smile, his face full of pride.
As a wanderer who has never received education, he can do this not because he knows how to manage prisoners, but because he understands these captured wanderers so well.
When there is no interest at stake, these people cannot be whipped with a whip, just like a stubborn statue.
But as long as they can get benefits, one will run faster than the other, as if there is an engine under their feet.
“This is the first phase of the village construction site. We plan to build two hundred houses to accommodate the population.”
"In addition, we have also planned the second phase of the construction site and are ready for new people to join at any time."
After getting off the lizard car, Huang Xiong led the way while introducing it in detail.
Pointing to a large piece of land being opened in the distance, he said happily:
"Village Chief Chen discussed with me a few days ago and wanted to move part of the plantation here. . ”
“We can’t take on much now, but after the village is built, we will definitely speed up. ”
Planting, a low-end industry just for survival, has been gradually abandoned by most players in the territory, except for the players in the farmer route who need to gain experience.
The reason is simple.
After a bumper harvest, the most basic survival material needs are no longer the top priority for players. The warehouses full of food are enough to supply the territory to withstand most sudden disasters.
At this time, most people would rather choose jobs that pay lower than planting, but can provide experience for their own routes.
This is to ensure that the level and progress can catch up with the large army and not be out of touch.
Moreover, today's plantation operations have gradually shifted to cluster automation. Players on the farmer route do not want players on other routes to profit from their planting land. Most of the outflow jobs are simple manual labor.
Under such circumstances, Chen Shen decisively chose to transfer the industry after several communications with the players of the farmer route.
Transfer the plantation, which is not valued by the players, to the Barren Bone Village, which still depends on the natural environment.
The residents here have no experience, so it would be best to leave simple physical work to them.
And paying is now very convenient.
The factory that manufactures small commodities in the village has studied many times how to sell the commodities to the Barren Bone Village.
But the results of every study are very realistic.
Expecting homeless people who are scared of poverty to use food to buy goods that improve their quality of life is like killing them.
These people would rather hide the food in a box until it rots than exchange it for daily necessities that 'will not die if they are not used'.
There was no other way. In the end, the big and small factories had no choice but to join forces and invite ‘Qiao Yuansheng’ to come up with a solution.
Unexpectedly, he found a solution within a few days.
The Blue Star Rangers have a very axial way of thinking.
Materials are materials, labor is labor, and remuneration is another matter.
As long as we change the direction and replace all the labor remuneration paid with these things, they will be so excited that they can’t sleep all night!
Ever since.
Players on the farmer route who are responsible for the plantation only need to go to the factory to purchase goods, and then use the goods as payment to successfully complete the employment.
In the end, the factory can make money without expending effort to open up the market, and players can hire workers at low prices. The laborers also feel that they can make a lot of money just by doing a little work.
It is simply a win-win-win situation, and each party feels that they have won!
And as long as the industries of Hope Village and Longteng Village remain at the forefront, low-priced goods can be successfully sold here at high prices.
It can not only make money to continue investing in research and development, but also improve the living environment of Barren Bone Village, and also bring in a large number of laborers.
After a wave of three wins, another three wins with one stone.
"It seems that you have done a good job as the village chief, and I can continue to add more burdens to you!"
Patting Huangxiong on the shoulder, Sumo looked at the two curious people. The Dongfang-faced man who came over raised his fingers.
The latter trotted over excitedly, and when he got close, he quickly wiped the sweat on his head with his sleeves and said enthusiastically:
"Lord, good afternoon!"
"The sound is quite loud." Sumo asked after staring at the two people for a while.
"You are not the first batch of residents of Barren Bone Village, right?"
"Yes."
The two looked at each other sheepishly, and after hesitating for a moment Honestly.
“We only need to work for two months to obtain resident status.”
"What, you don't want to go back to Qingang Shelter? Do you want to stay?"
The two of them nodded without hesitation.
“No, we just want to live a good life here.”
“Me, me too!”
All the captives know very well that if they go back now, they will definitely Assigned to the battlefield.
The Rangers are not professional mercenaries, and no one likes endless battles.
Although the Barren Bone Village, which is still in the early stages of development, is not as prosperous as Qinggang New City, what does that prosperity have to do with a group of foreign wanderers? It is the home of the Gopher Man, not theirs. .
Here in Huanggu Village, there is fragrant rice to eat and clean groundwater to drink.
A place to live that is sheltered from the wind and rain, and a job that can earn a variety of daily necessities.
Compared to the past days, this life is like a dream.
They also gradually understood why the old residents of Barren Bone Village were extremely loyal to the lords here.
In a sense, this is their 'home' as long as they want it.
“What are your names?”
“My name is Cui An and he is Tang Dong!”
“Very good, I am very satisfied with your answer. Huang Xiong , I’ll charge them to my account for their next meal.”
"You can have a meal."
Sumo nodded with satisfaction and watched the two of them leave happily.
Compared with dealing with Earth players, most of the time, he still prefers to get along with these Blue Star natives.
At least here, he is no longer the human Su Shen.
He is just a refuge manager in a small place and the lord of a small piece of land.
I feel a lot more relaxed and at ease.
“Yes, Lord!”
“Don’t worry, whether they are captives or wanderers, I will definitely make them understand what loyalty is.”
“As Huang The village chief of Bone Village, I guarantee this in the name of the village chief!”
Huang Xiong nodded respectfully, his tone as decisive as ever!
