My troops evolve infinitely

Mu Yuan also extended his hand, "Baijiang City, Mu Yuan."

He took the lord with him and walked into the territory. The reception was naturally limited to the southern area.

In his plan, the South District is also the window for the territory to open to the outside world in the future. There are no secrets here.

Many lords make such arrangements.

The core area has never been open to outsiders. It is just a private area with a few more billions.

However, Tianyuan Territory currently has no dedicated reception venue, so Mu Yuan decided to set the reception location at the first cafeteria.

Eating and drinking is in line with the culture of Xuan Country.

Lord Zhou Ye was a man of great eloquence, and he recounted his experiences of the trip.

"Before coming here, I've traveled through several territories, and none of them are as prosperous as under Brother Mu's rule."

"But..." he sighed, "Our lords were born at the wrong time. Not long after our territory was established, we encountered the extremely dangerous Red Mist Tide. It's said that during this Red Mist disaster month, the monster tide will be even more ferocious than in previous years. I've been thinking of rallying the surrounding territories to form an offensive and defensive alliance. That way, we can better survive the Red Mist Tide."

"Before I came here, I had already reached a preliminary alliance agreement with the three lords."

"Attack and defense alliance?"

Mu Yuan pondered.

It took a while to figure out what Lord Zhou Ye meant.

It is like forming an offensive and defensive alliance of a small group.

Many lords do this, and the benefits are indeed numerous. Just like a lone ranger player usually achieves far less than a player who has formed a mercenary group.

This is the advantage of working together.

However, truly strong people do not need to form groups.

The enemies of his Tianyuan Territory are not the monster tribes in the surrounding areas.

Mu Yuan paused and said, "In times of trouble, all sides should lend a helping hand. This is of course what every Taixuan Lord should do. Furthermore, engaging in commodity trade is also a good idea. Our territory is currently forging a batch of new equipment..."

No alliance needed.

However, if a lord sends a signal for help, his Tianyuan Territory will help. In addition, after listening to Lord Zhou Ye's experience of visiting several territories, Mu Yuan suddenly thought that he could trade with the surrounding territories.

The surrounding lords who are relatively weak and unable to travel far can usually only trade with passing caravans.

But there are not many caravans, and the prices of their goods are relatively high.

If that's the case, why not sell equipment and purchase raw materials from these territories? Currently, the shops in Shiling Town haven't opened up sales channels yet. Selling at a discount to the Chamber of Commerce in town isn't as good as selling to the surrounding territories. Mainly, these territories aren't far from home, so transportation costs aren't high.

As Master Li trained several forging apprentices, the production capacity of the blacksmith shop gradually increased, and it was capable of producing medium-volume low-level equipment.

The plan works.

Let Isloya and Daisy complete the rest.

As a lord, he is of course only responsible for making suggestions, otherwise what would he need capable employees for?

Zhou Ye didn’t know what Mu Yuan was thinking, but his smile was a little stiff.

Isn’t what he said clear enough?

An offensive and defensive alliance is clearly a mutually beneficial thing. At most, he, the organizer, will just make a little more profit.

Well, it doesn’t matter if you hit a wall. Different lords have different ideas. Let him persuade you again.

Zhou Ye thought about it, and then followed the shepherd lord to a spacious area.

On one side of the intersection was a square paved with marble slabs. A small fountain was built in the middle of the square, and countless flower baskets were placed around it, which made Lord Zhou Ye a little stunned.

This pastoral lord's territory is built quite luxuriously!

Mu Yuan was a pragmatist, and the construction of his territory was very rudimentary compared to his strength, with almost no landscaping. But in the eyes of new lords like Zhou Ye, anyone who could build a decent territory at this time was considered an excellent lord, so they had no money or energy to care about beauty and tidiness.

When his thoughts turned to this, Zhou Ye discovered that Mu Yuan's territory was exceptionally clean and tidy.

Not only is there very little trash on the streets, but more importantly... there is no smell!

No smell of shit and piss!

Unlike his or other people's territories, one has to be extremely vigilant when walking in the refugee living area and always pay attention to one's feet. If one is not careful, one may step on one or several lumps of sticky and soft things.

Even though the core area of ​​his territory was separated from the living area of ​​the people, sometimes a gust of wind would bring the stench with it.

The stench is overwhelming.

To be honest, he couldn't stand the smell at first, but now he has gradually gotten used to it.

It was not until this moment that he realized that Mu Yuan's territory was so clean, so clean that he wanted to take a deep breath and inhale the rare fresh air.

No, I can't take a deep breath, this is too embarrassing.

Zhou Ye gradually calmed down, but was still very envious, and asked the shepherd lord about his way of governing the people from the side.

"There's no such thing as governing the people. Just build more public toilets and large bathhouses."

Zhou Ye: “…”

He didn't want to talk anymore, but his eyes were still looking around.

I saw the destination of this trip, the First Canteen.

While entertaining guests in a place like this might seem a bit shabby, he didn't mind the place being so poor. As I said, in this period, it was quite remarkable for a lord to be able to properly build and govern his territory.

He thought it was reasonable to entertain a distinguished lord in the dining hall.

Zhou Ye saw the four-story patrol building again. To a Blue Star person, it was just a low building, but compared to the simple thatched huts, wooden houses, and two-story earthen buildings in most newly acquired territories, this tall and beautiful building was definitely a luxurious landmark.

However, compared with another building at the end with a bustling crowd of people, the first two buildings pale in comparison.

Lord Zhou Ye couldn't help but blurt out.

"Fuck, job change to construction!"

……

"Fuck, it's delicious!"

"Fuck, flying dragon meat!"

Unlike the beginning, Zhou Ye seemed to have turned into a foodie who was no less delicious than Dolai, grunting as he ate his meal.

They also talked about the construction of his territory so far, or the interesting things that happened during his exploration or trip to Shiling Town, and never mentioned a word related to the offensive and defensive alliance.

Zhou Ye knew it clearly.

The lord who can own a job-transfer building is probably much stronger than him.

What he wanted was to have the leadership of the alliance, and of course it was impossible for him to bring in a lord who was stronger than himself.

Is it a good thing or a bad thing to have such a strong neighbor?

Good and bad.

During the Red Mist disaster month, the benefits still outweigh the disadvantages.

He thought, and continued eating. He really thought it was delicious. The chef's cooking was superb, and this rare flying dragon meat was even more precious.

The Mu brothers are generous people.

It is true that the alliance is not suitable to be included, but the two countries can still trade with each other in the future and benefit from each other.

After eating and drinking, Mu Yuan sent Lord Zhou Ye to the city gate and sent a team of soldiers to escort them away.

"Brother Mu, please come visit me when you have time."

"It's easy to talk about."

Mu Yuan watched the team go away and took out a map.

There are more than a dozen neighboring territories marked on it. The locations of these territories were discovered inadvertently by the war falcons when they went out exploring.

Since his exploration was focused on the north, he did not record much of the surrounding territories.

Next time, I'll have to look for it more carefully.

Second update...

Chapter 245 Production Epic (4K)

The Red Fog Disaster Month has "月" as the suffix, which means the disaster usually lasts for one month or more.

The Red Fog Disaster Month has now reached the middle of the month, and the frequency of monster waves attacking the territory is not as frequent.

However, the red fog still floated, and as more and more wisps of red fog surged in from the depths of the wilderness, the red fog between heaven and earth seemed to become thicker.

At the east gate of Shiling Town, more than a dozen veteran players are returning from the wild.

They were players from a mercenary group, having just accepted a mission to conquer and purify a filthy land. Most of the players were covered in monster blood, with only a few magic players remaining relatively clean.

Behind them, dozens of accompanying soldiers were dragging and carrying some monster corpses, or valuable wood and raw ores.

These are the gains along the way.

Only by knowing how to sweep up some valuable things within your field of vision can your life become more and more hopeful. Experienced adventurers and explorers will all do this.

"However, it's really not easy to conquer the filthy land during the Red Mist Disaster Month. The monsters gathered there are several times more than usual."

"That's right. If this filthy place hadn't been created so recently, we might not have been able to conquer it. Even so, the regiment lost more than a dozen soldiers and even lost a key elite... It's only because of the mission subsidy from the Player Association that we're able to do this. Otherwise, we would have lost money on this expedition."

The muscular young man walking in front turned around and said, "We can't always be calculating the costs and gains. If a filthy place like this isn't conquered in time, it could lead to a catastrophe. It would be great if we could purify it, wouldn't it?"

"Yes, yes, Captain, you are right..."

The deputy commander held his forehead and was suddenly stunned. "Master, your eyes are a little, a little bloodshot."

He suddenly thought of something, turned his head sharply, and stared hard into the eyes of others.

"Everyone has bloodshot eyes, and the soldiers' pupils are even more red," he said. "This is the red mist invading our bones. Once it penetrates deep into our bones and pollutes our souls, we, the players and the soldiers, will all be reduced to monsters, no different from those creatures in the wild who eat raw meat and drink blood and kill on instinct."

"Our current level of erosion isn't high, but if it continues, it could lead to irreversible consequences. We won't be able to go out for a while, unless everyone is willing to buy a potion like the Ice Clear Liquid."

I can't afford to buy it, so I can only stay in the city for a few days to slowly recover.

This is also the choice of the vast majority of veteran players.

Buying anti-corrosion potions? Only kryptonians or lord players have the financial resources or are willing to spend such a large amount of money.
