attack city

Of course, there is another issue that must be faced, and that is the views of other nearby cities.

Several manor-level cities are united together, and the nearby cities will not care too much, because they are also aware of the pressure they bring to these small cities.

Just like when Osmanthus City entered here, it would also put pressure on other cities. It's the same reason.

Unless those united manor-level cities believe that their group is very strong and engage in some strong behavior that even threatens the maintenance of the trading market, then conflicts will increase.

No other city would tolerate these actions.

Then it is very likely that a temporary alliance of several second-stage cities will appear to kill the stronger cities.

It is much easier to unite to defeat weak cities than to unite to deal with powerful cities.

Because the risk is very small, especially for second-stage cities versus first-stage cities.

Although what you get is very little, in disputes between cities, you are usually more concerned about risks. If you get less, you will be fine, and you can't get into trouble. This is the idea that almost all cities have.

Of course, that won't happen.

Because people like Gujiacheng don't even go out much now, they are all farming here.

They only get together because they are unfamiliar with this place, which brings about a sense of lack of security. After a while, the cohesion between this group will become even lower, even if it is not an internal conflict.

Just farming, there are not many conflicts of interest within the small group, but the psychological sense of security is real.

Once you leave the trading floor and take other actions, conflicts within the small group will also increase.

In fact, this is one of the biggest reasons why small groups disintegrate when a city enters the second stage.

Because strength and status are no longer equal, some conflicts within the original group will also become a factor that worries many people.

People are complex.

When the city entering the second stage is unable to handle those complex contradictions, the group cannot be maintained.

In fact, there is a high probability that there is no way to deal with it, because their status and sense of superiority, as well as their own need to upgrade, must determine that they want to take the big shot.

This amount is difficult to control, and there is a high probability that it will lead to a behavior called exploitation.

It is a pity that a village-level city cannot suppress a large group of manor-level cities. There are too many uncertainties in the war between cities.

It is not impossible for a manor-level city to trap a village-level city, bring it to death, use energy monsters, or use other methods to kill the opponent.

In the previous life, after Gujiacheng entered the village level, their group also disbanded.

Because Gu Mingcheng clearly felt the cracks within the group, and others were polite and courteous on the surface, but in fact they were wary of him.

Finally, I had to start acting independently.

The remaining ones absorbed several new cities and continued to join the group to keep warm, but it didn't last long and the entire group eventually disbanded.

Although some cities later entered the village level, and there was occasional cooperation, the relationship was not as good as it was at the beginning, and the previous barriers could not be completely removed.

Xiang Yang had no intention of finding some messy things for himself. Of course, he was familiar with Gu Mingcheng, including his personality and way of doing things, but that might not be the case in other cities.

Xiang Yang has his own plans, and he can't always stay at the Crocodile Valley Trading Ground to protect some of his younger brothers from upgrading.

Sometimes, once too many interests are involved, many things will deteriorate, so it is better to keep a certain distance between friends.

This still holds true in the wasteland world.

"What's the geography around here?" Gu Mingcheng said: "We only know a few places where you can hunt and get wood, and you can also fish in lakes and seas."

"It's not nearby, it's the maps and geography within thousands of kilometers, or even tens of thousands of kilometers, including fresh water supply points, the best route forward, and possible crises on the route, etc."

Xiang Yang said: "If you want it, I can sell it to you."

"Of course I do, but how much does it cost?" These are of course good things, Gu Mingcheng said, "You know we don't have many resources."

"Inform other people, all nearby cities from Terra, notify me one by one, come to me individually, tell them that I can provide information in this regard, maps within 3,000 kilometers, and the situation of the nearby copy continent

."

Xiang Yang said: "And a ruins where you can get energy blocks when you reach the village level, but you can't enter when you reach the town level. It's more dangerous there, but according to the method I told you, you can minimize the risk."

This information is not for sale now. After a while, they will go to other places to get it. Of course, the money cannot go to outsiders.

"In terms of price, twenty energy blocks."

Xiang Yang continued: "I can add information about one more trading place to the information I gave you, including how to get there more safely."

"That place is far away from here, but you can go there to get some supplies that are difficult to get here."

What was additionally given to Gu Mingcheng was information about the Mohe Trading Ground, not only the map, but also things to pay attention to on the road, which would improve safety.

Even though that route is safer, it is so far away and without adequate preparation and planning, accidents are very common on the road.

Sometimes this kind of loss can be quite huge, such as a failed rice harvest on a farm, which is not just a loss of a few energy blocks, but is calculated in tens or hundreds.

With the route guide to Mohe Trading Ground, Gujiacheng can also get crystals faster and will not be stuck by this.

Because Gu Mingcheng is more familiar with other cities, asking him to contact other cities will make the map sales business better this time, so this is a reward for Gu Mingcheng.

But it's not just a matter of remuneration.

It is also to help Gu Mingcheng. Gu Mingcheng may not fully understand it now, but when he reaches the village level, he will know.

In his previous life, Gujiacheng tried many times to go to the Mohe trading market, and it took him more than half a year to successfully get there.

This is the most common way to go to a place that is unfamiliar and too far away. Go farther every time and become familiar with the environment on the road. It is not until you slowly collect more information along the way that you can finally go there.

For most new human cities, once they understand the risks of the main continent, it will not be easy to go a long way.

Because they will no longer be as reckless as when they first entered the wasteland world. After all, only a few cities survived, and many people also have psychological shadows.

"Okay, thank you. I'll go talk to other cities."

After living in the wasteland for such a long time, Gu Mingcheng has also become very clear about the importance of getting guidance on the situation on the road when marching over long distances.

So not only did he agree without any hesitation, but he was also very grateful. Obviously, the last time they met in Novice Continent, he still received special care.

Although in Xiang Yang's eyes, this is more of a reward for helping him contact other cities, and the help is just convenient.

But he didn't think it was a reward, because he felt that contacting him was just a simple effort, and it basically just deepened the relationship between the two parties.

That's why he thought it was a special kind of care.

"What? It's a town-level city."

"It's really awesome. I'll go take a look. If I can get some pointers, maybe it will be upgraded soon."

"Oh my god, that track mark was from him."

"Gu Mingcheng, why didn't you tell me earlier? I'll go find him right away."

"Ah, starting from today, Xiang Yang is my idol."

For most first-stage cities, twenty energy blocks are very expensive, and not many people would be willing to just buy a map.

But it would be different if there were ruins where energy blocks could be obtained, other replica continents, and possible pointers about the wasteland world.

After Gu Mingcheng's help and being someone familiar with Gu Mingcheng, they no longer had any wariness or suspicion.

Therefore, almost all cities immediately became interested, went to Xiang Yang's side one after another, and started to contact him.

Especially when they knew that Xiang Yang was from the same planet as them, but had already brought the city to the town level, they became even more interested.

Some people were so impressed that they almost worshiped him.

A strange spectacle suddenly appeared in the Crocodile Valley trading ground. A large number of manor-level cities lined up in long queues to go to Shenlong City.

I looked at other nearby cities in shock, not knowing what was going on.

There are thirty-six cities in total, belonging to five united groups.

But there are no members of a certain group. They plan to only purchase one map and information and then share it with the group.

No one even suggested this.

But buy them all separately.

This is not because they want to curry favor with Xiang Yang, although many people have this purpose, so their tone is very polite, and they even say a few words of flattery from time to time.

It wasn't that they were afraid that Xiang Yang would be angry and didn't sell them maps and information.

In fact, if someone has already purchased it, Xiang Yang cannot control it.

The real reason is that the relationships within these small groups in manor-level cities are not that strong, and this situation will not change now and in the future.

To put it bluntly, their alliance is just a very loose group.

If they just copy a map, maybe they will do that, but it involves copying the continent, ruins, and energy blocks.

They knew that this was a matter of life and death.

Of course, first-hand information is required. The information obtained from Xiang Yang is obviously more reliable than the relayed information obtained from his own companions.

Not only can you avoid information distortion caused by paraphrasing, but you can also avoid falling into other people's traps and becoming the backstop.

Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the eventuality.

If you really fall into a pit, you will most likely die without a burial place, and there will be no next time.

Of course, the reason why Xiang Yang is so sure and confident is because everyone lived like this in his previous life.

Gu Jiacheng once bought information, and would rather spend an extra share of the money to get one, rather than conspire with others to share the share and send a representative.

I'm afraid that the representative is hiding some key information.

Some costs must be paid.

"Twenty energy blocks per person, thirty-six cities, just a few words, copying a regional map is 720 energy blocks."

Gao Hongzhan and the others felt a little unbelievable. They had worked so hard and risked so much to hunt the energy beast, so why not do it this simply?

"It's just this once. When a city enters the village level, if you go there once and survive, this trick will be useless." Xiang Yang said with a smile.

After you have been there and hunted once, and you have gained experience, you can sell the information and others will believe it.

I have never been there myself, I just resold the information, it must be explained.

This means that I have never been there, the information comes from other places, I don’t know whether it is true or not, and I am responsible for any problems that arise.

In this case, there is basically no way to sell it.

If you don't explain it, you are selling false information. Once it is known, or if there is a problem, you must at least compensate and solve it. It is very likely that it will not start a war. Otherwise, it is normal to be cheated one day.

After all, this is a hanging problem.

However, it should take some time before entering the village level.

After making this money, Xiang Yang continued to arrange the affairs in the city, and then informed him to rest for five days.

There will be plenty of water along the way to where we are going next, so there is no need to worry about the farm.

The biggest difficulty on the road, besides safety, is the issue of water resources.

Every time after going out, arriving at a relatively safe point with sufficient water resources to rest is a basic operation, which can also relieve tension and eliminate fatigue on the road.

Tang Ming and Ruan Shijie's wife also took action, of course, all under the escort of soldiers.

Tang Ming took his wife to go fishing in the lake, and Ruan Shijie's wife went to the wild to look for frogs, loaches and other creatures. They wanted to improve the entire ecology of fish ponds and duck houses.

There are also pig farms and chicken farms. These facilities have become very large, more than three times their original size, but the specific scale expansion cannot be achieved directly.

Wang Yan is relatively expert in this regard, mainly calculating the specific supply of grain and feed, and then Xiang Yang continues to purchase some pigs to expand the scale of breeding.

Of course, not adult pigs, but piglets.

As for the chickens, there is no need to hatch them directly. This growth rate is very fast.

Like farmed pigs, you don’t need to buy them anymore in the future. Now that the facilities have just been unlocked, you have to buy some.

The pigs here are not the kind of quick-finished products that use industrial feed. They need to be bred for more than a year.

The real adult pigs are still only those obtained from Western Forest City, and they are basically used as breeding pigs.

Now that Shenlong City has reached the town level, the population has reached 300 people, and the farm has 50 acres of land. Now, including the non-population limit, the population is only over 100.

In the main continent, there is no way to get enough population in the short term.

New cities slowly increase their population, and unless you are lucky, it usually takes a year and a half to fill up.

Xiang Yang is not in a hurry, because the scale of the city has reached this level, and the benefits of energy blocks brought by the population are also decreasing. It is not worth wasting energy specifically for the population.

Of course, it is not necessary to go to the novice continent to find someone.

So much time has passed, and most of the people who survived have entered the city. Those who are still in the wild are not saying that there are none, but they are definitely a rare species.

Therefore, if you go to the Novice Continent now, you won't be able to find anyone, and the Novice Continent has few resources. Unless you are lucky and encounter an opportunity, going there is a waste of time.

Because the population is currently small, there will be more food left.

Therefore, in total, they decided to expand the scale of pig and chicken farming to the maximum.

At the same time, continue to plant a few more acres of wild sweet potatoes. This will not only solve some of the feed problems with sweet potato leaves and vines, but also sell some of the wild sweet potatoes to cities with food processing plants to make products such as vermicelli.

Although wild sweet potatoes are much smaller than ordinary sweet potatoes, and the yield is also much lower. After all, one of those big sweet potatoes is as big as many wild sweet potatoes, and the yield cannot be compared with those big sweet potatoes.

But the functions are similar, so making fans is no problem.

Of course, wild sweet potatoes are more nutritious and have better flavor.

The vines are more prosperous than ordinary sweet potato varieties and have better nutrition. They can be said to be quite good as feed.

Vermicelli noodles, etc. are also very common foods in the wasteland world.

In addition, the feed obtained will not be worse than growing rice, but it will be more difficult to sell.

In this way, the pressure of hunting will be relieved a lot.

In fact, most of the so-called wild sweet potatoes are varieties that have been cultivated by humans. This can still be distinguished from the taste. If they are not cultivated varieties, the taste will not be that good.

Xiang Yang felt that the sweet potato was abandoned because of its low yield, but the survivability of the sweet potato species allowed it to survive in the wild.
