Boom!
Boom!
The colorful salutes exploded in the square in front of Hope Village, reflecting a rainbow-like glow in the daytime.
The red light may sweep into the distance, making a sharp tingling sound.
Or turn a corner and hover in the sky, gradually disappearing into the clouds and mist.
The little players who are used to seeing large-scale fireworks on the earth are no strangers. They all clapped their hands and applauded, adding a bit more excitement to the upcoming celebration.
But those wanderers who were accustomed to living a precarious life in the city shrank their heads subconsciously, trembling uncontrollably, and quickly wanted to find a bunker to hide themselves.
As the saying goes, when gods fight, mortals suffer.
In the past, when there were fights in the major shelters in Qinggang City, the ones who sacrificed the most were often not their own family members, but the homeless people who had no interest at all.
What those shelters like to do most is to promise huge profits and drive the wanderers to take the lead.
After almost all the sacrifices were made, the two sides pretended to fight for a while with the main force on top.
In the end, several corpses were left behind, and the homeless people who died together shouted "The battle was tragic."
At this time, the shelter who was watching from the side stepped forward to mediate, and the two parties continued to negotiate with entangled interests.
As for the sacrificed wanderer?
If you die, you will die. You can also pay less to go out and reduce the losses in the battle.
However, as they turned around and looked to the side, they realized that they were still in the Qinggang City full of painful memories.
"This is Tianyuan, everyone raised their heads for me!"
Wearing a brand-new cotton coat, with a firework tied to his chest, the head of Huanggu Village, 'Huang Xiong' He roared.
After being trained by Qinggang Shelter with various shameless rules for a period of time, these newcomers who have been gathered into the village now feel that they are good everywhere after experiencing the beauty of Tianyuan.
Everyone has to work extremely hard and can’t wait to keep spinning.
To be obedient, in some cases even better than a well-trained gopher army.
But the bad thing is that the wanderer gene rooted in these people's bones is still serious.
Just like now, just a slightly louder noise can startle many people and reveal their true colors.
“Village chief, we know, but no one has seen this battle before!”
“What a big, neat village, ah no, it’s a town!”
"Look over there, as long as you hold a resident ID card, you can enjoy a free celebration meal!"
"It's still half price. Buying things today is also half price."
"Hey, this is it. The town’s heritage, I wonder when our Barren Bone Village will be as lively as it is now.”
Some bold wanderers took over Barren Bear’s words and couldn’t help but sigh.
It is really difficult to imagine some things before you have seen them with your own eyes, and it is also difficult to know whether they are true or false.
Before entering Sunny Harbor Refuge.
Over the past few decades and hundreds of years, all wanderers have believed that this is the paradise they have been striving for.
There are endless supplies, a powerful army, and an extraordinary status in the city.
Being reincarnated into Qinggang Sanctuary and becoming a part of it is a blessing that took several lifetimes to cultivate.
But where does it really go?
There are endless low-paying jobs, and they have to work more than ten hours in the harsh winter to get a tasteless and nutritious work meal.
There are almost no benefits for residents, or no benefits for residents who join later.
Not to mention visiting underground shelters, they do not have the right to enter many public buildings and facilities on the ground.
Plus there is almost no room for growth.
Although they are nominally residents of Qinggang New City, in reality they are still like the mercenaries they used to be.
The only thing extra is probably a name that has no actual meaning.
And now?
After completing ten hours of work every day with quality and quantity, you can get three working meals with 100% certainty.
The meals are rich in variety, including many foods they have never seen before, but the taste is surprisingly delicious.
It is no exaggeration to say that these days, too many people are crawling out of their warm beds and heading to work just for this bite of food. This was something that was simply unimaginable before.
In terms of supplies, it is also surprisingly abundant.
Although Barren Bone Village did not distribute cold protection materials as soon as they arrived as promised, they needed to submit a step-by-step application, which took some time.
But this is not like Sunny Harbor Shelter, which is a blank check and a false promise.
After all, someone’s name is read out every day, and supplies are received in the center of the village opened up by the Barren Bone Village in the envious eyes of those who come late.
This is something that is obvious to all and cannot be faked.
What's more, even if they were cheating, they had been in Qinggang Shelter for several months, and there was no even thought of cheating there.
As for the differences in more places, it’s better not to think about it in detail. Once you think about it, the difference between the two is not obvious.
Welfare benefits, employment levels, development prospects, and the dignity and recognition that seem to be the least important, but give every homeless person a sense of belonging.
"The gap is too big, Tianyuan should be our strongest shelter in Qinggang City!"
Delanlang also stood nearby and sighed, glancing in the direction of Tianyuan Dungeon from time to time.
Thinking about it, I haven't seen that manager for a long time.
Sometimes he would wake up suddenly while dreaming, remembering that he and his brother had once had an idea for Tian Yuan.
That’s really brave!
You must know that in the eyes of most managers today, the current Tianyuan Territory is the new owner of Qinggang!
The grand celebration lasted from morning to afternoon.
The flowing seats held in the square were changed one after another, and people watching the ceremony from several surrounding villages were gradually sent away.
There is no other way, plus the wanderers from Desolate Bone Village, the current Tianyuan Territory has more than 100,000 people.
According to the current reception capacity of Hope Village, it is still insufficient.
As the lord and mascot, Somo was exhausted after seeing off tens of thousands of people.
After all, the main purpose of every wanderer coming here is to meet his legendary manager.
If you act too aloof or don't show up at all, it's inevitable that many people will have other ideas.
After choosing to meet tens of thousands of people, Sumo nodded almost never stopped.
When you meet some familiar people, you have to say a few words of greeting.
"It's finally over. If there are more people here, I'm afraid my neck will be ruined."
Rubbing his stiff trapezius muscles, Somo returned to the first floor of the dungeon. He took a sip of the warm water handed over by the guard.
On the other side, Qiao Yuansheng, who had just "went to the grassroots level", also happened to rush over.
The two looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
Although this kind of work is really boring and a waste of time, the effect is excellent!
Almost every wanderer who was greeted and nodded by Somo danced excitedly when leaving.
In the past, they had met many shelter managers while hanging out in Qinggang City.
But even the one with the best attitude just lowered his head slightly when he saw them.
But now, Manager Tianyuan, the new owner of Qinggang, is smiling at me!
A feeling of recognition arises spontaneously, and a feeling of respect breaks out. Not to mention wanderers, even some earth players secretly decided to serve the territory.
It is enough to show the huge effect that this simplest method can have.
"These are just the first steps. It's true that Huang Xiong has been hiding for so long."
Qiao Yuansheng cursed secretly, but in his heart he was so beautiful.
Just now, he had reached an agreement with Huang Xiong, and then there would be a lot of cooperation in every village and town.
The most important one is that Hope Town will provide technical personnel and drawings to help Barren Bone Village begin to transform to a town-level scale.
At that time, as long as the Barren Bone Village is successfully promoted, the scale will be enlarged again.
Together with Yuren Village and Longteng Village, we hope that the town can develop to a county-level scale to accommodate more people and buildings.
“We still have to check afterwards and find out how they brought the people in.”
“I know this. We have been busy and forgotten in the recent period and did not pay attention to this. ."
Qiao Yuansheng nodded and accepted the matter.
Tens of thousands of people quietly entered the territory and took root. If they were enemies, I didn’t dare to imagine what the consequences would be.
"There shouldn't be many people in the afternoon, the celebration is over."
Sumo put down the water glass and was about to get up to get something to eat, but he raised his head: "Hey, Minister Sid, why are you here alone? ?”
As one of the few communication bridges between Qinggang Shelter and Tianyuan Territory.
Side, who is now the investment promotion minister of Qinggang Outer City, can be regarded as an old friend.
On weekdays, when nothing happens, Minister Sid almost always stays here in Hope Village.
According to him, it would be idle to go back anyway, so it would be better to stay here and have delicious food to taste.
"Leader Susu, today is the celebration of the expansion of the village. I have to come to congratulate you for both reasons and reasons."
Side smiled unnaturally and stuttered a little. I didn't dare to make it clear that my identity here today does not represent Qinggang.
In fact, the Sunny Harbor Sanctuary is now divided into two factions.
One group believes that Qinggang should continue to remain aloof and wait for Tianyuan to take the initiative to contact him.
The other group believes that it is necessary to give some reminders so as to gain an advantage in subsequent negotiations.
As for those who think like him that we should take the initiative to contact Tianyuan, they are definitely real aliens!
"You are here as a guest. You can eat whatever you want on the flowing table later. The town will pay for it today!"
Qiao Yuansheng stood up calmly, took the gift from Sid's hand, and said nothing. Mention your identity.
However, before Sid could say anything else, he heard another noise coming from outside the door:
"Brother Sumo, you slept a little late last night. Isn't it too late to come here?" A familiar and loud voice sounded at the entrance of the underground city.
How dare you call Leader Tianyuan your brother?
Side was shocked when he heard the news and saw the crowd parting and a figure walking slowly.
The midday sun slanted down on the man, reflecting his gorgeous new clothes.
Sid knew that the material used in this clothing was called "Miyun Silk", which had the magical function of automatically adjusting the temperature.
A few years ago, when the Foundation's merchant ship arrived, it brought some for sale, and they were all snapped up by the managers of major shelters in the city.
Now I can see with my own eyes that the clothes made of this special material are really beautiful and elegant. Not only do the colors match just right, they also look noble and elegant.
Golden silk threads embroider exquisite patterns on the clothes. As the lines move, they shine in the sun, like a flowing river of light.
But the most eye-catching thing is the shiny bald head, which is in sharp contrast to this gorgeous new clothes, but is surprisingly harmonious.
"Brother Yehu, you look good today. These new clothes really complement each other on you!"
Sumo stood up, also a little surprised.
In the past, Yehu always dressed casually, even a little slovenly.
But today, he seemed to be a different person, exuding a unique brilliance from head to toe.
Is this tiger hunting?
Sid's eyes were in a trance for a while, and it took him a while to make up the difference between the person in front of him and the figure in his memory.
It is indeed hard to imagine that the unruly hunting tiger in the past could behave so kindly now.
Even if he had long heard that Liehu in the Tianyuan Alliance was very convinced of the Somo leader.
But seeing this scene with my own eyes, it is inevitable that my heart will be filled with emotions.
This is something that even Hades has been unable to do!
On the other side, Liehu heard the compliment and indeed showed a proud smile on his face.
He shook his sleeves and straightened his back deliberately, looking more energetic. "Haha, Brother Sumo, I like what you say. I dressed up specially today just to give our Tianyuan Alliance some momentum. Hey, who is this?"
"See you. "Guo Pingtan Manager."
Side stepped forward quickly and lowered his head to introduce his identity.
If he came here today to represent Sunny Harbor Sanctuary, then the two sides can indeed talk to each other on an equal footing.
But just speaking personally, Sid knew the character of this hunting tiger.
If you don't lower your head fast enough, you will definitely be severely punished.
Sure enough, after being lifted up by him so quietly, Yehu's attitude softened a lot:
"Oh, everyone here is a guest, you can go away, I want to go with my brother Let’s talk.”
“Okay, okay”
Seeing this, Sid nodded quickly and walked out accompanied by Qiao Yuansheng.
But after taking a few steps, he heard another burst of laughter from behind.
Turning around, it was Liehu who was smiling like a rotten chrysanthemum, chatting with the Soma manager.
Is this tiger hunting?
The same question appeared in my heart again.
But this time, Sid no longer had a definite answer in his heart.
No matter what, he could no longer reconcile the domineering hunting tiger in the city with the kind bald man in front of him.
"Minister Sid, I won't give it to you up front. There is a running mat over there, just open it and eat."
"Easy to say, Mayor Qiao of Qiaocun just go and do the work. ”
Qiao Yuansheng led Sid to a seat in front of the square, explained a few words, and left in a hurry.
Following the direction he left, Sid looked around.
But I only saw a group of people cheering in the distance, carrying gifts in large and small bags. There were at least 40 or 50 people.
The faces of these people were familiar to Sid. They were the managers from the southern suburbs!
"This"
When I think of the quarrels and discussions in my own shelter, I look forward to Tianyuan coming to the door and bowing my head to cooperate.
But this group of stupid-looking managers in the southern suburbs have taken the initiative to put aside their dignity and come to ask for cooperation.
Sid felt a tightness in his chest, as if something was blocked.
Once upon a time, Sunny Harbor Shelter was so glorious.
However, now, this glory has secretly changed hands and become the new king
Tianyuan Alliance!
