Chapter 58: The cow is still your old cow!
"Report the boss, the little one is lucky enough to fulfill the mission! This operation has a total of 2,367 people brought back."
Cheng Ke swayed under his feet, and the little donkey riding under her would speed up consciously, and take it with you Following her trot all the way, she came to Gu Mi.
In a funny way, she gave a decent salute, and kept her eyes turned to Gu Mi with her back to the group of people behind her.
Seeing this, Gu Mi pressed the original questioning words, and only used the lord's authority to remotely notify the old village chief, Avery and others to come over, and let them cooperate to settle the new lords.
Fortunately, she had built a lot of houses before, and seeing that the group of people were neatly dressed, some were holding donkeys and cows, and they were holding chickens and ducks, she knew that they were very calm on the way, and even brought their full net worth, so There should be no shortage of money.
At least there is no shortage of money to buy official citizens in their territory.
Even though he was anxious to learn about the specific situation with Cheng Ke, Gu Mi did not forget to welcome the arrival of the new subjects as the lord.
"Welcome everyone, in my territory, you are all equal, I hope everyone can settle down here and regard this territory as our common home."
Just glanced over, Gu Mi found out that this There are not only human races in the team, but also bull race orcs, forest fairies, and even a dwarf.
Because of the appearance of multiple races, Gu Mi said these words, she knew, for many races.
Equality is what they want most.
Sure enough, when the people who were still apprehensive and nervous about the new territory heard the Lord's 'promise', they took it as a promise and immediately relaxed slightly.
Although it was only a slight relaxation, it also made many newcomers have a good impression of this racially mixed territory.
And a good start is the cornerstone of their future recognition and sense of belonging to the territory.
The old village chief and Avery, who received the lord's order, rushed over immediately.
And they didn't come alone.
The old village chief brought Hu Qi behind him, while Avery rode a griffin and led a escort.
Gu Mi has not yet equipped the guards with enough neat equipment.
However, the team's uniform movements and high-spirited momentum still shocked this group of newcomers.
On top of that, most of the attention was drawn to the majestic griffin that Avery was riding.
"Hey..." He sucked in a sigh of relief.
"Griffin!"
"It's so handsome! If only I could have one like this!"
"Is this the joy of working under the boss? Is it too late for me to apply for a thigh hug now?"
…
"To be able to tame a griffin as a mount, the strength of this territory should be very strong." Among the dwarves, an old man with a gray beard and a wooden pole, who was obviously the leader, said solemnly.
Beside him, a young dwarf asked inexplicably: "We abandoned our homeland and came here to seek shelter. The stronger the territory, the better?"
"Yes, yes..." The old man Nodding, murmured.
The conversations of these people were not deliberately suppressed.
In addition, many members of the escort team have now reached the eighth or ninth level, and the increase in various attributes has strengthened their five senses. How can they not hear the 'whispers' of the new people in front of them?
Many of them quietly raised the corners of their lips proudly.
I thought to myself, only one griffin makes you so amazed, if you know that there is a whole group of griffins in our territory, you will not be scared to death!
Therefore, the lord who can tame the leader of the griffin and bring back an entire herd of griffins is the idol they most admire.
Looking at the shocked newcomers, Gu Mi didn't show it on his face, but he was quite satisfied.
She had deliberately asked Avery to come with the escort.
In fact, the main population arrangement work in the territory is basically done by the old village chief and Hu Qi, who was recently promoted to his deputy. It has nothing to do with Avery. The reason why Gu Mi called him here is mainly to give this group The new settlers show off the armed forces of their territories.
Why did this group of people leave their homes to come to their territory?
The reason is nothing more than those, either the original territory was too hard to endure, or they wanted to seek a stronger territory to shelter them.
As the apocalypse draws near, the outside world is increasingly dangerous.
Many small territories, settlements, primitive villages, etc. that are not even territories, have already felt this deeply, and the previous natural disasters and beast tides can sound the alarm for them.
Therefore, in these places, there must be one or two smart people with a long-term perspective to issue a warning to the clansmen, driving them to leave their homes that are no longer safe and move to other safer places.
In this case, if someone comes to lobby and tell them that there is a safer territory willing to accept them, I believe that many people will be happy to pack up and follow.
Before Cheng Ke even reported to Gu Mi how she abducted, Gu Mi basically figured out her general routine.
Still, you have to ask.
Therefore, after handing over the resettlement of the new population to his subordinates, Gu Mi took Cheng Ke back to the office of the village affairs center and listened to her report to himself the journey of their group after they went out.
When leaving the territory, Cheng Ke set out with a clear goal towards the territory he had been to or heard of.
The first they arrived was a colony of dwarves.
This is not a territory, just a group of dwarves who simply gather to live here.
Cheng Ke had no intention of kidnapping the dwarves.
It's not that she doesn't like it, but that people live and work in peace and contentment here, and they live well with the people of the same clan. Obviously, they won't go with her easily, so she simply doesn't plan to waste her time, just treat them as good friends, whatever. After two days, let the team repair and then go to the next territory.
On the way to the next territory, Rabbit Xiaosi happened to trigger the job transfer quest and ran halfway to do the quest.
Haven't come back yet.
This is also the reason why Gu Mi didn't see her in the team just now.
The reduction in the number of people in the team was expected, so Cheng Ke didn't react much, and continued to lead the Gerroges brothers to the next destination.
They went to a small town-level territory.
The territory is very large, at least the largest territory that Cheng Ke has seen so far, and it can develop well.
However, the gap between the rich and the poor in this territory is huge, and there are similar slums in it.
If an outsider wants to enter that territory, it will cost 100 copper coins to enter the city alone. Once inside, he can only stay in it for one day. If he wants to stay in it and obtain the official citizenship status, he must either be a job changer or a Pay 10,000 copper coins.
10,000 copper coins, this amount is not to mention for the survivors who have just arrived, even the aborigines who have lived on this land since childhood, there are so many that they have never seen so much money in their life.
So of course, when Cheng Ke found those survivors, most of them were not doing well.
Many people can only struggle to survive in the slums, work hard every day, and at most eat food.
Some of them can't even get into the slums.
You can only be a refugee far from the territory.
"That territory does not allow refugees to be surrounded by the city walls, so the army is often sent to drive the refugees away. Many refugees either leave to find the next territory that is willing to accept them, or they wander around the territory, trying to save money and sell the territory. Citizenship."
Maybe that territory left a deep impression on Cheng Ke, so she unconsciously described it too much.
"That kind of crappy place is not a place for people at all, so after I learned about the situation, I found a few friends I had met before, and I first got close to them, and then said that our territory is good, and encouraged them, and then Let them inspire others." The
human network is such a wonderful thing.
Often two people who you think are irrelevant actually turn a few more corners through their relationship network, and inexplicably can connect them with some relationship.
Cheng Ke takes advantage of this.
She asked her 'good friends' to lead one by one, and encouraged more than 500 people to agree to leave the territory with her and come to Gu Mi's territory.
Not all of the 500 people were survivors, but there were also a number of aborigines.
When she left, she came here because she didn't take the sheep with her. She also took away most of the refugees wandering around the territory by the way.
The team has further expanded to thousands of people!
Hearing this, Gu Mi already wanted to give a thumbs up to the big boss of Sheniu to express his admiration.
Don't look at her simple words, but it's not so easy in practice. Just how to dissuade others and become good friends with others is a problem.
If Gu Mi is allowed to go, she can also trick some people to come back, but there will only be a few, there will never be such a large group as Cheng Ke.
"You brought back more than 2,000 people. You said that you kidnapped more than 1,000 people. Where did the remaining 1,000 people come from?"
Gu Mi asked enthusiastically.
She had listened to this as a story.
"Boss, didn't you see it too, the people I brought back were of other races besides the human race, and the dwarf race was the one we met at the beginning."
Speaking of which, the dwarf race was also unlucky.
They originally lived well in their own settlements, but who would have known that they would encounter two high-level monsters fighting and hitting their home.
Everyone knows the reason why big guys fight and bring disaster to Yuchi.
Fortunately, the dwarves escaped decisively and timely enough. In the end, some people in the group were injured, but no one died.
But their home has been completely destroyed.
Dwarves are good at forging, and it is not impossible to rebuild their homeland, but their old patriarch is worried that the next wave of beasts will come before the homeland can be rebuilt.
At that time, without the fortifications originally built in the gathering place, even if they can barely withstand the beast tide, they will definitely suffer serious casualties.
The number of dwarves themselves is not large, only more than a hundred, and the old patriarch did not dare to risk the lives of his clansmen.
Therefore, when Cheng Ke led a large team through their dilapidated gathering place again, found their difficulties, and made an invitation, the old village chief finally made up his mind after a lot of consideration.
He wants to lead the tribe and follow their friends of the dwarves to the territory where all races are equal in her mouth!
Since then, the Cheng Ke team has expanded again.
And because the dwarves' gathering place was only destroyed, in fact, there are still many things inside that can be used, and some of their own livestock are still there, so they brought some more luggage.
Their team is huge and the goal is obvious.
On the way back, I occasionally encountered some homeless refugees. Some refugees may have asked whether they could follow them because they felt more secure because of their large numbers of people.
Cheng Ke adhered to the principle of not rejecting anyone who came, and the more the better, after simply confirming that the other party was not a bad person, he absorbed them all into the team.
As a result, as we walked, the number of people in the queue became more and more long, and it finally became what Gu Mi saw.
After listening to the whole process, Gu Mi: "..." The
cow is still your old cow!
Opened the territory information panel and looked at the soaring population above. Gu Mi directly took out a large bag of copper coins and gave her a large bag of copper coins according to the number of heads that Cheng Ke brought back: "Nuo, your commission."
This is the beginning of Gu Mi. promised.
An official resident gives a copper coin, even if it is not certain that all these people will stay, she is willing to give the full amount first.
