The game is coming: I rely on the construction of the territory as a charter woman

Chapter 241 What is the purpose of the other party coming to Hope Village?

Author: Happy Summer

When several nobles heard these words, they looked stunned and their eyes were full of disbelief.

Do these residents really dare to ridicule them?

Although their words did not reveal this meaning, under such circumstances, how could they not understand their implication.

His complexion changed slightly.

After Zhou Bai saw that his residents had finished their yin and yang anger, he coughed lightly, and then said to a few nobles: "My lords, please don't blame them. They are just a little curious and have no ill intentions. They are guests. My lords."

, how about you come in with me?"

It's time, it's time to step down.

Just because you don't want the other party to dominate in your own territory doesn't mean you have to offend so many territories in one go.

In the future, Hope Village will still do business.

It has to be said that seeing Zhou Bai's polite inquiry at this time, the tempers of several nobles were instantly suppressed.

They also didn't forget that they were here to "do business" with Hope Village, so it wouldn't be good if they really turned against each other.

In particular, the ranking of Hope Village has soared by nearly 2,000 places. Before their territory, this is enough to prove that the strength of Hope Village exceeds their territory in some aspects.

In Stanland, the strong are respected, so it doesn't matter if they bow their heads a little.

What's more, the other party got off the ladder.

This is the point.

This group of nobles also noticed that Hope Village was different from the territories they had visited before.

Let’s talk about the territorial residents. Which territorial residents would dare to treat nobles like this?

Momentum is like a scale. If one side is heavier, the other side will naturally be lighter.

After several nobles figured it out, they nodded reservedly and followed Zhou Bai inside.

Zhou Bai looked at the soldiers on the side and said, "I also helped a few adults get their cars settled."

"Yes." The soldiers on the side also quickly accepted the order and began to arrange personnel to guide these noble men to the station nearby, and mentioned the charges by the way.

"Is there a charge for placing the beast cart here?" The soldiers who were charged were a little confused. Shouldn't nobles have privileges in a territory? It was already aggrieved that their lords had to pay for their own stay in a hotel, and now they had to

Being paid.

"This is the rule of our territory, but if you keep it here, we will feed your monster and take good care of it. In addition, it will be convenient for you to pay tolls when you need it."

“And tolls!!!”

"Yes, our territory has spent a lot of effort on the roads. If everyone can walk without tolls, wouldn't it affect the order of our territory?" The soldiers from Hope Village talked eloquently.

"...Okay, I'll hand it over!" Their lords had already given in. How could they not give in?

But isn’t Hope Village a bit stingy???

The few nobles walking in front did not know that they had to pay for the arrangement of their convoy. Seeing that the people in Hope Village arranged the convoy well, they felt a little satisfied and began to introduce themselves.

"Conrad, Lord of Dempsey Village."

"Cairns, Lord of Chester Village."

"Chaplin, Lord of Zackley Village."

"Barton, Baron of Augsburg."

Several people were introduced one by one.

When they introduced themselves, Zhou Bai took advantage of the situation and looked at the ranking of their territories.

Basically, they are all level 3 villages, ranking after Hope Village. As for the town of Augsig, its status is indeed one level higher, but Barton is not a lord, so naturally he cannot take the name of Augsig Town.

"Why do you suddenly want to come to Hope Village? Is it because a caravan came to do business with you?" Zhou Bai then inquired.

In fact, after her territorial war, many people would come to her door, but she didn't expect there would be so many in the past few days.

Yes, in the first two or three days, not to mention other things, the caravans came one after another.

As a result, today, so many nobles came at once, including a marquis.

Come to think of it, those caravans coming and going in Hope Village may have played a big role.

And these territories came so quickly, I'm afraid they are not far from Hope Village.

She could just find out their approximate location.

"Not only the caravans came to do business with us, but also some of our original caravans took their families away after a trip." Viscount Conrad, the lord of Dempsey Village, was the first to speak, with a half-smile.

Looking at Zhou Bai, "I didn't expect that after contacting the lords of several nearby territories, I found that it was not an exception. Let's take a look together."

When speaking, Viscount Conrad's tone had some special meaning.

The turnover of residents in the territory can be said to be normal. As the lord of the territory, naturally he will not pay too much attention to this matter, but the attitude of Hope Village gives him room for eccentricity.

Zhou Bai listened and smiled in surprise, "Having so many people here at least proves that our territory is still attractive. Our territory is now obsessed with increasing the population! So, sir, are you here to see the business in Hope Village?

If so, our territory will definitely give you some discounts."

Viscount Conrad: "..."

He finally discovered that he hoped that the village chief's talk was really slippery.

This can shift the topic to the business of Hope Village.

But it is true that they came for the products of Hope Village.

Otherwise, why would they go all the way to do it themselves?

The last sentence of giving them a discount instantly touched their hearts.

Several other people couldn't help but smile when they looked at Viscount Conrad's appearance.

This outstanding person can’t get ahead either.

This time, the look in Zhou Bai's eyes was a little different.

To be able to become the head of a level 3 village, this person has some real abilities.

The anger that was originally there has indeed dissipated a lot now.

They were the ones who provoked first, and we cannot just allow them to provoke and not allow others to fight back.

It's just that the "object" of Hope Village's counterattack is a bit special.

Thinking of this, Viscount Cairns, the lord of Chester Village, immediately spoke up, "Because we support Hope Village so much, please don't hide some good things from Hope Village!"

Hearing this, Zhou Bai paused and said, "We have already taken out everything that can be sold. You adults can just come according to your own needs."

If you can't sell it, don't even think about it.

The territory itself is not enough.

"I heard that Hope Village's best-selling products are ingredients, and that those ingredients are made from plants grown in Hope Village?" Viscount Cairns spoke. Obviously, he knew a lot.

As Zhou Bai listened, he thought of the spies there one after another in the farmland, and he looked a little helpless.

Some things are very special, but what is special is the production process of those people.

For example, soy sauce.

Many people in Blue Star know about it, but when it comes to the specific production process, not many people know about it. Even if they have heard of it, they only have a general understanding.

She thought it was luck that Hope Village could pop up so quickly!

"Yes, but there are also special methods. It is the basis for the livelihood of those residents. They have cooperated with the territory to make it early. Even I, the village chief, cannot interfere. So far, the products sold in our territory are basically finished products.

Zhou Bai said, "The finished product is more convenient for merchants. If you adults need it, you can go to the market and have a look. The ingredients in the market are also the most complete."

Hearing Zhou Bai say this, several people were not disappointed.

They knew that Hope Village would not be easily known, and this was the basis for Hope Village to make a fortune.

If it's on them, they won't be able to let others know how good it is to do exclusive business.

What surprised them was Zhou Bai's attitude, which actually directly admitted that the ingredients in Hope Village came from plants. Aren't they afraid that other territories would study plants to find corresponding substitutes?

But even if they don't admit it, there are already a lot of people looking for it, especially near Hope Village.

Didn't they also have such a plan to come in person?

It just means that even if they don't find it, they won't suffer a loss, because taking the finished product back will be enough for them to make a lot of money.

Thinking of the "benefits" they could get from Hope Village, several nobles adjusted their moods again.

Then he thought of the unique city wall of Hope Village and the road being built outside. Viscount Cairns asked again, "What building materials did you use for this wall? I have never seen or heard of it before. Can it be sold?"

"The quantity is too small, and our territory is not enough. It cannot be sold for a long time." Zhou Bai said truthfully.

"What's so special about the city wall with this added building material?" Viscount Cairns continued to inquire.

"It adds a little bit of defense, which can be regarded as a substitute for stone. So the remaining part of the city wall will be used to build the road. It will be gone before an important material is found."

"What is the important material? Maybe we have it in hand?" Viscount Cairns said enthusiastically.

Zhou Bai: "..."

——This group of nobles should not be too conspicuous in their efforts to inquire about information.

However, this is indeed not a secret, because Hope Village needs these things.

Come again! Let’s take this opportunity to divert people’s attention.

It is better to display the shells in the open, while the limestone mine is more suitable to be carried out in private.

"Shells." Zhou Bai said, "Do you have any? Our territory is being purchased at a high price!"

Upon hearing the word "shell", Viscount Cairns fell silent.

Shells occasionally appear in some places, but the number is too small, and the large ones are basically at the beach.

The ocean is the territory of the Dragon Clan, and few people dare to approach it.

It would be a dream to take a large number of shells from there.

This business is not easy to do!

"Our territory is not adjacent to the sea, no!"

"mine too."

"What a pity! The raw material is actually shells."

"..."

In an instant, several people stopped mentioning it.

Zhou Bai looked at their reactions and gained a new understanding of the dragon clan's deterrent power.

She is actually really curious about the dragon clan. Will the dragon clan in this world be as crazy and cool as those seen on TV?

It was also at this time that they walked through the passage of the city gate, completely entered the territory, and saw clearly the scene inside Hope Village.

In an instant, the attention of Viscount Conrad, Viscount Keynes and his entourage was diverted.

I have to say that they were a little surprised when they saw the environment inside Hope Village.

I originally thought that Hope Village had just advanced and its population was not large, so the construction of the entire territory should not be very good.

But unexpectedly, Hope Village is quite beautiful and very well-organized.

They are basically lords and know how difficult it is to build a territory, especially in terms of planning. Their experience has been improved step by step. Sometimes, for the sake of some interests, some plans cannot be moved. Even if they are planned later, they still have to do it.

It's not as organized as Hope Village.

The other thing is the construction style.

Every inch of land is worth every inch, and there is a lot of land that they are reluctant to waste. Therefore, the buildings are very compact and utilize every bit of land to the extreme.

But what about Hope Village? So much thought has been spent on the roads. The main roads and branch roads are quite large in area.

Although it is a waste, it looks really comfortable.

Except for the roads, the newly promoted Hope Village is not empty at all. The buildings look quite full. No matter how remote the place is, at least there is quite a lot to see.

They also came from a level 2 village. After upgrading to a level 3 village, they were particularly impressed. For a long time, the territory looked very empty.

Later, as the number of businesses and population increased, it gradually became more prosperous.

Hope Village has become so prosperous just a few days after being promoted. The lord of Hope Village must have a very rich family background, right???

Only those with money can turn the territory into this look in just a few days.

There was a little bit of envy in my heart for a moment.

In fact, they also have family support behind them, but the biggest support is that the family allows them to have a territory. In order to train them, unless it involves the survival of the territory, they must be allowed to work hard to build and make money on their own.

Having worked so hard on my own, I am very confident about the value of these buildings in the territory.

Hope Village, not to mention other things, these buildings cost a lot of money.

Of course, more importantly, it is hoped that the village can make money on its own quickly.

Judging from the sales of Hope Village products in their territory, we can know that external money is definitely flowing into Hope Village continuously.

In the future, the business in Hope Village will only become more and more prosperous.

At this moment, they understood that it was definitely not an accident that Hope Village ranked beyond their territory.

As soon as they finished sighing, they couldn't help but take a look at the animal cart driving back and forth in one lane on the road. There were actually many people on it, obviously residents.

Do you hope that the village will build such a big road just to make it convenient for residents?

Does Hope Village treat its residents too well? Does it pamper them too much? Is that why they have such... courage?

Noticing their gaze at the beast carriage, Zhou Bai explained: "This is a public beast carriage in our territory. It only costs 1 copper coin to ride on it. There are stations at different locations, and parking is available at the stations. With this beast carriage, residents can travel

It’s all very convenient, and the income collected is also very good!”

There is a lot of upfront investment, but the money will be recovered quickly.

Of course, making people convenient is the most important thing compared to making profits.

Viscount Conrad, Viscount Keynes and others listened to Zhou Bai's explanation but didn't take it to heart.

Zhou Bai's little income is not as important to them as the dignity of the nobility.

They will never allow residents to enjoy such privileges in their territory.

Not to mention anything else, they clearly felt that the residents of Hope Village were particularly...difficult???

They couldn't help but tremble when they thought that the residents of their own territory had the guts to be as rude to the nobles as the residents of Hope Village.

No, absolutely not!

They will never allow the residents of their territory to escape their control.

Seeing that several people were not interested in the beast carriage, Zhou Bai continued to lead them towards the hotel.

When you go over there, you can also see the commercial street.

I could see the crowds of people on this side before. The closer I got, the more obvious this feeling became, not to mention the gradual aroma of food.

This kind of smell is just stimulating their greed.

After they tasted the food brought back by the caravan from Hope Village, they couldn't forget it. Everything else they ate felt a little tasteless.

When they arrived at Hope Village, smelling the more overbearing aroma, the greed in their bodies was instantly out of control.

"You go to the hotel to make arrangements first!" Viscount Conrad took the lead and said to the two soldiers beside him.

There are so many people under my hands, they are just for use.

"Yes." The soldier said immediately, and immediately withdrew his gaze. They were also a little greedy!

Starting with Viscount Conrad, the other three people also made the same choice.

For them, enjoyment is more important.

After someone went to arrange accommodation, they arranged for soldiers to buy food for them.

It's impossible to ask these nobles to queue up.

Being willing to eat on the roadside is enough to put down your arrogance.

Of course, it is also to learn more about Hope Village.

Zhou Bai looked at their behavior and didn't say much. She just considered whether she could find an excuse to leave. She felt that she had been polite enough to stay with them for so long.

At this time, a group of people came from the direction of the hotel.

The people at the front of the team were not the Marquis Boyle and Bayer.

Viscount Conrad and Viscount Cairns saw the Marquis of Boyle immediately. Regardless of food, they quickly stepped forward and saluted: "Your Majesty the Marquis."

Marquis Boyle looked at them, then at Zhou Bai, and said meaningfully: "Hope Village is really popular."

He took a brief look and knew that Hope Village was not a simple existence.

Likewise, it is also very valuable.

It’s so exciting!

Zhou Bai met Marquis Boyle's gaze, and for some reason, a not-so-good feeling arose in his heart, a little... creepy.

Zhou Bai paused for a moment, then said: "It's just that the food is a bit novel and can't be served on the table."

"Then I'm about to have a taste of this novel food. Since we all have the same goal, let's do it together?" Marquis Boyle asked, asking Zhou Bai, Viscount Conrad, Viscount Keynes and others.

When Viscount Conrad and Viscount Cairns heard this, they didn't dare to refuse. They nodded quickly and said: "Of course, this is our honor."

Speaking of which, they really don't want to be with high-status nobles, so they have to be careful.

They had a feeling that the other party might be coming for them...oh no, it was Zhou Bai beside them.

Otherwise, why would the other party choose a hotel in person and then "encounter" them?

Hope Village is indeed a hotpot!

I hope Hope Village can withstand it! Otherwise, if it is controlled by the big nobles, it will be difficult for them to get a share of the pie.

They agreed, and Marquis Boyle's eyes naturally fell on Zhou Bai, "Village Chief, what about you?"

Zhou Bai: "My pleasure."

She seemed unable to refuse.

Of course, I didn't want to refuse.

She wanted to see what the other party's purpose was in coming to Hope Village?
