Chapter 1409: Boulder Territory, pry the corner in front of you!
Lao Zhang was a little dumbfounded.
He thought that Sumo would arrange an extremely dangerous task for him, one that might cost him his life at any time.
He also thought that after Somo finished speaking, he would respond directly to show his loyalty.
However, when he heard that Soma planned to establish a territory in the mountains and make him the lord.
Lao Zhang was still stunned and lost his ability to think.
The coming disaster will target every territory, and it is not clear whether it will affect individual people.
But if we establish a territory now, it is certain that we will have to resist disaster.
Half a moment.
He just came back to his senses and asked blankly: "Build a territory here. Will the golden giant eagle agree?"
Sumo smiled and replied, "I'm afraid I'll have to ask the Niu brothers more about this question."
"them?"
Lao Zhang didn't react for a while, and finally lost his voice for a while: "Are these people planning to establish a new territory here if they don't leave?"
"Otherwise, you don't really think that a group of healthy, capable, and courageous men in their prime will stay in this village for fear of hardship?"
Before Sumo could speak, Luo You curled his lips and told what he had observed last night.
After a group of people left, he and Luo Jiao had nothing to do and simply wandered around the village several times in the second half of the night.
You won’t know if you don’t look at it, but you will be shocked when you look at it.
The number of prime-age men staying in this stone village is simply too many, and the number is even a bit abnormal.
Moreover, the sufficient food and help they received from working as miners, as well as the help of the route, made the physical fitness of this group of people explosive.
Why do so many people stay in this abandoned village?
"I asked many people, but they were unwilling to communicate with me, but I found a child."
"No, it was Luo Jiao who found it."
Luo You smiled, saying, among other things, the beauty trap is useful in any era and under any circumstances.
Although the innocent child was fully wary of strangers under the guidance of adults, he still confessed despite being bombarded with admiring looks from the opposite sex of the same age and some supplies as sugar-coated bombs.
"The Golden Eagle does not support idlers. Although these prime-age men are qualified for any job with their physical fitness, it is difficult for the elderly and children in their families to withstand those heavy work tasks."
"Especially when the Golden Eagle has just relocated and needs to be mobilized for development, there are many people who have died from exhaustion."
After Luo You briefly stated the reasons, he also stated the plans of these people.
"If the plan goes well, they want to build a new territory here or nearby, focusing on farming and fishing. This will not only ensure that they do not have to bear too much work, but also can go to the Golden Eagle to exchange materials when they need them, even if they cannot
When disaster strikes, you can join the Golden Eagle at any time."
"What if the plan doesn't go well?"
"Nonsense, of course you have to join the Golden Eagle. Is it possible that you want to go somewhere else?"
"Forehead"
Lao Zhang suddenly felt that his IQ was not low in the eyes of ordinary people, but maybe he was just a fool in the eyes of Sumo and Luo You?
However, when he thought about Sumo's willingness to let him be the lord instead of letting Luo You be the lord, Lao Zhang became happy again.
Sometimes being too smart makes it harder to be trusted.
A smart person under ordinary circumstances and a "fool" under special circumstances are actually the best choices in the current environment of the wasteland.
"So they are so familiar with the terrain on the mountain, do they want to establish a territory on the mountain?"
"I guess so." Sumo nodded.
When the dark sides of several stone mountains were excavated, the miners deliberately dug out many caves.
Judging from the neatness of the interior, they were probably ready to break away from the Golden Eagle at that time.
In addition, the Niu brothers are so familiar with the structure of the mountain, so this requires a long period of exploration.
"But we can't guarantee whether the survivors of the Golden Eagle can tolerate building a territory here, so you have to check it out with the Niu brothers."
"It's easy. I have plenty of ways to say it."
Lao Zhang patted his chest, showing great confidence in such a small matter.
When he left with a small bag of hard candies and walked around the village to inquire about the situation, Luo You came over worriedly.
"What do you think, why are you building a territory here? Could it be that you want to use this method to attract the attention of the golden eagle and give us a chance to enter?"
"Of course not, I have many ways to get in." Su Mo was very satisfied with Lao Zhang's subjective initiative and said solemnly: "At first, I planned to establish a territory here, gather the poor people outside, and see if I can find them.
Some talented people.”
"What now?"
"Now I want to poach the Golden Eagle in an open and honest manner."
Ever since he learned about the internal situation of the golden giant eagle, Sumo had many ideas.
In this wave, he not only wants to gather the survivors who pass by, but also tells the golden giant eagle the value of human unity.
We also need to use the convenience of reputation to see if we can select a group of talents to bring back to the territory.
After all, there are hundreds of millions of people here, and even a talented person picked from a thousand miles can still make up 10,000 people!
"You are really a madman, will they tolerate you doing this?" Luo You sighed.
What is the difference between this kind of behavior and standing in front of the lords of the Golden Eagle, dancing naked and taunting them.
"Well, the probability should be quite high. I don't think the Niu brothers would be unaware of their behavior. If they can choose to let them stay here, they should have already acquiesced to something."
"In other words, they are also happy to see many small and medium-sized territories emerging around the Golden Eagle that rely on development. This will not only solve the problem of everyone coming to eat welfare, but also expand external demand and find a good place for the goods produced by the factory.
sales.”
If the people of Golden Eagle trust the suggestions he mentioned in his previous letter, there shouldn't be too much obstruction in establishing the territory.
On the contrary, they may also provide certain support, which may be used as the upfront cost of cultivating the market.
"I hope your guesses are correct." Luo You kept silent. Since Sumo had made his own decision and had reasons that could convince others, he didn't intend to obstruct him any more. He only wanted to wait until Lao Zhang inquired.
When the news comes back, the truth will be revealed.
There are many abandoned houses in Stone Village, and most of them are covered with a thick layer of dust.
Fortunately, the temperature in the southern section is higher, so there is nothing superfluous inside. The group of people casually found a relatively clean empty room to stay in the surroundings to resist the harsh sunlight above their heads.
When it was noon, Lao Zhang came back with a red face, full of excitement.
"That's true. They did plan to establish a territory on the mountain. Later, they considered that although the safety of the mountain was guaranteed, development would be restricted, so they took no action."
"As for whether the Golden Eagle allows survivors to establish territories around it, there is no problem. Going down from the Stone Village where we are now, several downstream villages have already established territories. Not only did the Golden Eagle not express any opinion,
We also sent a special person to inquire and provide some support.”
This is really the case.
Luo You, who had been on tenterhooks for a while, his eyes lit up, and there were some changes in the way he looked at Somo.
This man is still so mysterious. Not only can he move freely in small and medium-sized territories, but he is still bold when he comes to super territories like the Golden Eagle.
"What to do next? Everyone is eligible to establish a territory. The question is whether anyone will join. The Niu brothers are quite influential in Stone Village, but even if we rope him in, there will not be more than thirty people willing to follow.
People." Lao Zhang said worriedly.
The main reason we were able to get the Niu brothers was to rely on the materials provided by Somo to clear the way.
Once supplies run out, these people will most likely leave without looking back and return to the village to wait for other opportunities.
Moreover, disaster is coming soon. If the general builds his territory on a rocky mountain, there is no guarantee that the village will be attacked by a tide of beasts. Whether others will agree or not is a matter of opinion.
"We don't recruit people from here." Sumo was already prepared.
Although the people here are the best labor force, including the elderly and children, they are also experienced. Since they can make up their mind to leave the Golden Eagle, how can they casually join a newly established small territory.
If you blindly use materials to clear the way, you will only end up attracting a group of uncohesive wolves.
The best way is to let them rush to join and invest a certain amount of cost to form a sunk cost, so that they will be reluctant to leave.
"Let's recruit those frustrated survivors who came to the Golden Eagle."
"Ah? Can they allow it?"
They refer to those who were supervising the outside when they left yesterday evening.
If you try to pry the wall in front of these people and tell the survivors the true intentions of the golden giant eagle, I'm afraid the magazine will be emptied in minutes.
"You are stupid, we are not robbing people directly, we are just inviting some people who have nothing to do to come over and help build territorial defense facilities."
Sumo narrowed his eyes. He believed that the survivors who could come all the way to reach the golden eagle were all smart people.
As long as the people waiting in line know that there is a territory with natural dangers here, then some people will definitely not choose to become the cannon fodder of the golden giant eagle and go head-to-head with the beast tide.
"We will pay a certain amount of labor remuneration, and some survivors with families and families will definitely be tempted. Anyway, they have nothing to do in queuing there. It is better to leave one person to continue queuing, and the others will come to work with us."
"As for the reward."
Su Mo paused and waved his hand in the air.
Cracking boxes of supplies fell from the air, and the impact woke up the two children who were still catching up on their sleep. They thought they were dreaming when they saw the falling supplies.
These unmarked cartons were very heavy, and some of them were opened and scattered in the air, and a lot of freshly packaged dehydrated vegetables fell out.
"How can you still use the storage space?"
Luo You and Lao Zhang were shocked. Although Somo could always take out supplies from the small warehouse on the ship, they had never thought that there were still humans who could use this magical method.
"This is the start-up capital. Later we have to establish a cycle ourselves, otherwise I won't have that much to support the survival of tens of thousands of people."
Sumo did not answer the question directly, and changed the topic abruptly, pretending to be mysterious.
But it was precisely this that made Lao Zhang and Luo You deepen their judgment.
This is really unheard of. Could it be that the game also treats survivors in a first-class way?
At this moment, in the Stone Village on the other side.
After Lao Zhang inquired about the news and left, Niu Dan and Niu Shuang instantly stopped their pretentious smiles. The speed of their facial expressions gave people the illusion that nothing had happened.
After closing the courtyard door, more than a dozen men walked out from the side room that had never been opened.
The weather was hot, and everyone was shirtless, revealing their tanned muscles.
"Brother Niu, have you found out clearly about this group of people, and where did the Dragon Crossing the River come from?"
A group of people seemed to trust Niu Dan very much, and each one called him "Brother Niu" in a friendly manner.
"I don't know. This bearded man is very tight-lipped. Nothing can be pried out of his mouth."
"He's the leader?"
"Who knows." Niu Dan thought for a while.
Although Lao Zhang was doing all the errands, Sumo and Luo You's family stayed in the house to rest.
But aren't they the same? The others stayed in the house while he and Niu Shuang went out to investigate.
To put it bluntly, I just don’t trust the information that other people get.
"Not much to say, this group of people seems to want to build a territory near our Stone Village. They have been testing the attitude of our golden giant eagle just now."
"They, just those people? Are they building a territory?" There was laughter from the crowd. Luo You was inquiring about the news last night, and the people in Stone Village were also observing them early in the morning.
"Except for the big beard who has a lot of strength, there are several other people. A lame man and two children. Is it possible that the facial palsy has to rely on the strength?"
Facial paralysis?
Niu Dan frowned. Unlike others, he felt that the middle-aged man with a paralyzed face was not simple.
Although he is serious in speech and does not talk unnecessary nonsense, he can often get to the point with just one question.
But even if this person has some brains, building a territory is a laborious task, and just relying on two people is not enough.
And what’s the point of just building a territory with just a few people?
"Who knows, they are so generous with their actions. They are not like the survivors of Sosou. I guess they just came here to inquire about information. Maybe there is a small force behind them."
After thinking about it, Niu Dan added: "Since we are so close anyway, we can find out what they are going to do immediately. If we hire people to build the territory, we will be the best choice, and everyone can make a lot of money from it." Where’s the pen?”
"That's a good relationship. If he uses supplies to win me over, I won't even object to paying him for a period of time!"
"Hey, we all know the people who can work in this stone village. Maybe we can work together to raise the wages."
"I haven't had enough to eat for several days. If this gang can keep me fed, they can let me work for sixteen hours without any problem."
"What are you talking about? Didn't we agree that we would only accept it for a maximum of thirteen hours?"
"Ah, I forgot, I forgot."
A group of men were talking, and they all couldn't help baring their teeth and laughing.
Thousands of people in their Stone Village have been squatting for two months, but no one has come forward to call on everyone to build the territory.
This foreign dragon crossing the river really took the courage of a bear's heart and a leopard's courage. Only a few people actually wanted to build a territory?
On the surface, no one laughed directly, but everyone was determined and planned to watch the joke next.
