Chapter 963: Although the stalls are bigger, this is a good thing!
The first arrival of the black and red armor brought fear to all members of the ancient tribe.
Until now.
It has become another symbol.
Maybe it's hope, or maybe it's peace of mind.
Watching the off-road motorcycles approaching from a distance, dozens of people put down their tools with a look of respect on their faces.
"What, are you teaching them how to farm?"
"Yes." The wild wolf, who was originally unruly, looked shy and scratched his head in embarrassment: "We have lived in the city for a long time, and we have forgotten how to grow crops on the land. If it weren't for Village Chief Chen's instructions
People come here to teach us, even if we have land, we don’t know how to sow it.”
"How are you doing with your studies? I think you really like this job, right?"
With that said, Sumo put down his motorcycle pedals, opened his armor mask and walked off.
Look around.
Under the hazy fog, the nearby field ridges extend from the outermost edge of the fifth floor area for several kilometers before ending.
Although the plantation land of the Desolate Bone Tribe is not as vast as the seven plantations currently opened in Hope Village, it is still a bit shocking at first, as if you saw a gray crouching dragon lying on the surface.
If you can successfully plant crops and persist until harvest.
It is enough to predict that the Barren Bone Tribe will no longer have to worry about food for the winter as before.
"Because it was my first time, I didn't know how to do it...but Village Chief Chen said that I was the one who learned the fastest."
The wild wolf boasted a little, with pride written all over his face.
This is not because he took the credit randomly, but in the past few days of study, he did achieve the best results.
And compared to searching for the remaining supplies in the corners of the ruins of the city, the feeling of doing it yourself and reaping the rewards through labor is simply intoxicating.
Every night after a hard work, Delang felt that he had slept soundly, without dreaming at all.
For example, in the past, I would suddenly wake up when I fell asleep, or I would stay awake all night if I heard the slightest noise.
In the past half month, it has not appeared even once!
Simply amazing!
"Well, I originally had a job for you. Since you are so busy, why don't I go find your brother to see if he has time?"
"Work?"
Hearing this familiar term, Delang was startled.
If he hadn't gone to Hope Village before, he would have definitely regarded this as what Huang Xiong had arranged for him before.
Not to mention taking a lot of risks, there may be no benefits in the end.
But after I went to Hope Village, I came into contact with the General Administration of Work there.
Not only was Huang Xiong a little shaken these past few days, but after returning, he was tinkering with the system in his small room every day, trying to recreate such a department in the Desert Bone Tribe, so as to strengthen the enthusiasm of the tribe residents.
Even the wild wolf himself was extremely greedy.
They have gone shopping with local specialties several times these days, and have already figured out the prices and general situation in the village.
Work means 100% problem-free profits!
As long as you perform your duties for one day, you will receive Tianyuan iron coins and copper coins with extremely powerful purchasing power.
Who can not be moved by this, and who can not be greedy?
"Oh, Lord, my brother is very busy, just leave this work to me!"
No greetings were exchanged at the door.
The wild wolf's chest was beating loudly, and he quickly dropped the farm tools in his hands, shouted a few times, and chased inside.
The path that originally followed the outside of the fifth floor area was filled with debris from naturally collapsed buildings, as well as weeds and wildflowers growing in the gaps.
After a recent period of cleaning, it is obviously much tidier now.
A gravel road about three meters wide was laid from the entrance to the innermost site of the Bone Village.
From afar, Sumo saw the outskirts of the station.
"Well, I know how to use local materials!"
The site of Desolate Bone Village was not built in an open space, but still in that building.
The difference is that the inside of the building has now been cleaned very clean, and all the debris on the ground has disappeared.
The entire first floor has become a temporary activity place for residents, with separated entertainment rooms, kitchens, bathrooms, etc.
Several female residents were busy, and the children were also chasing and playing inside.
The second floor is the residence of the residents. After the broken windows were repaired with wooden boards, there is no air leakage anymore.
Even if it rains continuously in the past month, the temperature inside has always remained above fifteen degrees.
The third floor is currently the residential management office of Huanggu Village, and for the time being, only Huangxiong lives alone on it.
"There are only a few of you in the space here, so it's a bit empty." Sumo said with emotion as he walked up the stairs.
The wild wolf also nodded in agreement.
"If it were still a tribe of wanderers, more than a hundred people would no longer be considered a small group. But since we established a fixed gathering place, there are still more people and more excitement."
"At least for those cultivated fields, if we have more labor force, the harvest in autumn will definitely be greater."
With that said, the two of them turned the corner and walked all the way to the third floor.
Huang Xiong's broad body was leaning against the foot of the window, holding a gel pen in his mouth, thinking about something unknown.
As the distance got closer, I heard slightly dull footsteps.
Only then did he react and turned to look this way.
"Lord, why are you here?"
Dropping the notebook in his hand, Huang Xiong stood up in a panic.
"I just happened to have something to do and went to Qinggang City today, so I thought I would stop by to see how the development of Barren Bone Village is going. I didn't expect that you, the village chief, are doing a pretty good job, aren't you?"
Soma nodded and twisted the Ring of Creation around his neck into a half-buckle state.
At this time, the joints of the armor slowly cracked, allowing the wearer to step out naturally. It looked very much like Iron Man's Mark armor. The two brothers, Desolate Bear and Desolate Wolf, were stunned for a moment, their eyes filled with excitement.
envious.
"How about it, changing from a tribe of wanderers to a manager of a gathering place, doesn't it feel different?"
"Different, completely different."
Desolate Bear was very sensible and quickly withdrew his gaze and replied respectfully: "Thanks to you, all the residents of the Desolate Bone Tribe have lived a good life that was unimaginable before. Now they no longer need to pay for those damn plunders."
They don’t need to worry about winter supplies. They even have two hours of free activity and entertainment time every day, and they are living as good a life as the gophers in the shelter!"
"Good day?"
Su Mo smiled and nodded, the figures of Liu Lu and Lao Lu flashing in his mind.
But at this time, he didn't say anything more, but took out the information given by Lao Lu from his pocket.
"The Wandering Jungle is located in the eastern suburbs of Qinggang City. Have you heard of it?"
Huang Xiong was startled for a moment, then nodded vigorously.
"Of course I know! That's where homeless people gather. We've been there many times before!"
"Very good, I now have a job to be handed over to the Barren Bone Village. I wonder if you can spare some manpower?"
"It's absolutely okay, Lord Lord. In fact, you don't need to come over at all, you just need to say hello to me."
Huang Xiong took the information very honestly and gave a very precise answer.
Sumo was very satisfied with his attitude.
Compared with humans who have traveled from the earth and need to be slowly trained, it has to be said that these aborigines who have become accustomed to life in the post-war world of Blue Star have a clearer understanding of how to survive.
They understand their own value very well and know when to nod and when to shake their heads.
"The Wandering Jungle turned out to be the former Red Core refuge?"
After looking through the information a few times, Huang Xiong was shocked and looked like he couldn't believe it.
"When we went there before, we couldn't believe that this underground structure was built by homeless people, but every time we asked the people there, we didn't get a definite answer."
"I really didn't expect it, no, I should have thought of it earlier."
After sniffing, Huangxiong sneezed and browsed through all the above information at a glance.
If it's the Red Core Sanctuary, that's right.
"The Wandering Jungle does only have twelve floors, and our wanderers who have not registered members in it can go down to the third floor at most. After that, they can either register as members and regularly respond to the tasks of the Wanderer Alliance to gain points and upgrade, or
You have to hand over a sum of materials to buy mission points, upgrade your level and gain the right to go down."
"Is it still so strict?"
Sumo frowned and immediately understood the difficulty of going down to the twelfth floor of the Wandering Jungle.
If the first twelve floors can be entered and exited at will, then there is indeed a chance to sneak down to the thirteenth floor if you find an opportunity.
But with supervision and a grade point system, this can be a bit troublesome.
"Lord, do you want us to find the damaged production line left in the Red Core Refuge below the 12th floor, maybe the 15th floor, the 20th floor, or the 25th floor?"
Huangxiong extracted the end point above and asked speculatively.
"Yes, whether it is damaged or intact, the territory is currently in need." Sumo nodded.
"Then this shouldn't be difficult..."
Delang suddenly interjected from the side: "According to the information we got there more than half a year ago, someone should be selling the production line? Although the price seems to be very high, is there always a chance to talk about it?
..”
"Selling?" Sumo was stunned for a moment.
"It's not a strange thing. The things sold there are far more complicated than you think, Lord." Huang Xiong smiled bitterly and continued: "Let alone the production line, as long as we pay a sufficient price for anything that can be found in the city,
, this group of wanderers can find it, even if you need a stone from the Sunny Harbor Sanctuary Manager's residential level, they have a way to get it."
Sumo: "...."
Huangxiong raised his head cautiously and continued to mutter.
"Wandering in the jungle... there are also a lot of old gophers who come to trade. They like to use the food they produce to exchange things with us. Often when the Foundation's merchant ships arrive, they will spend a lot of money and launch
All wanderers collect things that the foundation needs in the city in exchange for more scarce supplies."
"If we can also use hard currency like grain, it shouldn't be difficult to buy production lines."
"...You can leave this matter entirely to the Bone Tribe. The warriors here will help you detect all situations. You don't need to worry."
Sumo had always been curious about what the countless homeless people in this city relied on to survive in the city without planting or producing.
Now, finally, we have an answer.
After working on it for a long time, it turned out that the homeless man was also supported by Gopher Laoji?
The food produced by the starch production machine and the protein synthesis machine was not only digested internally by the gopher old man, but also the excess production was exchanged for more scarce materials, as well as hundreds of thousands of laborers that could be mobilized at any time.
This is such a good deal that it can even be called a cost-free transaction.
No wonder it is always said that technology is the primary productive force.
As long as the wanderers without production capacity do not develop their own technology for a day, they will be exploited for a day.
Their time, physical strength, labor force, and energy will be converted into cheap starch.
And the most important point is that during the long years of providing food, these people have completely lost the ability to farm.
Once the Gopher decides to run out of supplies, there is no need to take action at all.
The seemingly huge group of homeless people will soon fall apart and become a mess.
At this time, you can make a small profit and integrate resources easily.
Somo's expression was a little subtle.
The complex situation in Qinggang City seems to be far beyond prediction.
No wonder they are willing to bring a gathering place that does not belong to Qinggang City into the gang and put it on the conference table.
It turns out that it's not because the population of Tianyuan Territory has exceeded a certain number, but because it has mastered...
Materials of production?
Those fields, in their view, are the key to getting rid of material control.
And possessing this thing also means that you have the qualifications to exploit homeless people.
Under this situation, Sumo could already predict that the territory would not be willing to join the exploitative group if it did not accept the invitation letter from Sunny Harbor Sanctuary.
Then the exploiting group will immediately have the opportunity to break Tianyuan territory into the exploited party.
At this time, they only need to issue an order to the homeless group.
If you want to continue buying supplies, then harass the Tianyuan territory and destroy everything built there.
"Besides, I also need you to complete another task." Thinking of this, Sumo changed the subject and continued.
Although the stalls are bigger, this is a good thing!
Unite all the forces that can be united in advance to win over the exploited party first.
When the time comes, the sharp knife that stabs you may become the sharp blade that kills your opponent!
"The territory needs a lot of labor force, and the Barren Bone Village also needs residents. I allow you to screen the wanderers and recruit some people who are willing to surrender to the territory."
"There may be trouble in Qinggang City recently. We need to unite all the forces that can be united as soon as possible and seize the initiative as much as possible in the following disputes."
Finally getting permission to recruit people, Huang Xiong looked a little surprised.
With a population of tens of thousands in Hope Village, even if one person goes down with a hoe, it will be more busy than in Barren Bone Village for a whole day.
Having accumulated some supplies recently, he had long planned to absorb some people to increase the size of the village.
Now, with the lord's permission, it will be easier to do this.
"Lord, don't worry, I will take care of this!"
"In three days at most, your loyal subject Huang Xiong will definitely complete the mission at all costs!"
