Chapter 600: The old and spicy village chief

The village chief is truly a man. He saw Li Lin's love for his granddaughter, which made the atmosphere at the dinner table particularly harmonious. The village chief also brought out some drinks to add to the fun.

Li Lin gnawed on the goose leg again and again while looking at the food on the table, including vegetable stewed goose soup, cooked bean soup, vegetable soup, grilled bacon, yellow/brown bread, some unknown fruits, and something similar to rice. , but slightly yellow, looking like porridge after cooking.

The staple food is bread, a small amount of yellow bread and a large amount of black bread. The arrangement of the food on the table is also very interesting. The yellow bread is placed close to you, and the black bread is within the village chief's reach.

Vegetable soup and bean soup are also in front of the village chief, and goose soup and roasted bacon are in front of his table.

Li Lin had no intention of skipping a few bites. He ate with peace of mind. He tried a little of each food. He picked up yellow bread, soaked it with goose soup, and fed it to the little girl because Li Lin saw the village chief giving the little girl a bowl. There is also black bread in it.

It seems that although the old man is the village chief, his family is not well off. His son should have died at the hands of goblins, and the little girl's mother has not been seen. I'm afraid...

In Li Lin's eyes, these dinners are not sumptuous. They can only be said to be edible. But the dinners that Li Lin can eat are probably considered a luxury for the village chief. Through the happiness of the little girl gobbling up the yellow bread, With the look on his face, Li Lin knew that he had guessed well.

Li Lin even noticed that Priestess did not get the yellow bread, but dipped the black bread into the soup.

These yellow breads are still very different from modern breads. They have no sweetness and taste relatively hard, but this is the best food the village chief can come up with.

It is really difficult for pampered modern people to adapt to a different world.

After Li Lin took a few bites, he rarely ate again. Instead, he chatted with the village chief and collected information about the village. He fed all the yellow bread in front of him to the little girl, and her belly became visibly rounder.

It's as cute as a little seal. It was so reluctant to part with the big white goose before, but it tastes really delicious!

Li Lin also learned a lot about the village from the village chief. Li Lin concluded that there were four directions, namely farming, herding, hunting, and gathering.

Supplies and food are collected and then sent to villages and towns for sale every once in a while. Excess food will also be sold to villages and towns instead of being stored.

Because many necessities have to be purchased in villages and towns, such as spices, salt, tea and other daily necessities.

Moreover, goblins are not the biggest source of danger to the village. There are more terrifying monsters and demons, the undead, bandits, bandits, and cultists. This surprised Li Lin and focused on asking about the goblins. .

The village chief told Li Lin that Goblins would never attack the village when the number was small. Even if they attacked, they would first target the pastures and rob chickens, ducks, cattle, sheep and other poultry, and each attack would kill a large number of Goblins. Lin, very few villages were wiped out by goblins.

This made Li Lin feel strange about the goblins in the "Brother Killing" world. The village where the protagonist was located was burned, killed and plundered by goblins, and many new adventurers failed. This may be a perspective problem.

Li Lin asked the village chief again, since goblins are not very dangerous to the village, why do they send tasks to the Adventurer Guild?

Li Lin didn't expect the answer given by the village chief. It was because he couldn't find the goblin cave and it was very dangerous to go to the wild. This did not refer to goblins. He was afraid that Pan would encounter other monsters and be killed. Or send powerful monsters to the village, causing the village to be destroyed.

In the open ground, a farmer with farm tools can kill three goblins with slight injuries. If he is in a narrow cave, he cannot even replace a single goblin after being attacked. The villagers have no armor for defense. Goblins can also do magic, which makes it even more worthwhile.

The harm caused by goblins is more of hindering the village's economic aspects such as farming and hunting. The most serious one is robbing women. As long as the rescue is timely, they can be rescued.

Li Lin vaguely realized at this time that people from other worlds and modern people have completely different views on women being snatched away by goblins.

The village chief drank too much and told Li Lin his experience in managing the village. As long as he found goblins, he would send hunters to determine the number, and then immediately send quests to adventurers, offering a higher-than-average price to invite the adventurers. Destroy the Goblin Cave.

Instead of being like some villages, who think that goblins are no threat and ignore them, in order to save money, they don't take it seriously even if they find goblins, or set little rewards for tasks.

Speaking of this, the village chief looked disdainful and took another sip of wine. This was the first time he met an adventurer who was willing to listen to him talk about how to manage the village.

"When villagers and hunters see goblins, it is a warning. Greedy and ignorant people will ignore this news and not take it as a big deal. After all, goblins are really weak. Then people disappeared, farmland was burned, and chickens and ducks were stolen. This It means the goblins are collecting food."

"Some villages will go to the Adventurer's Guild to issue tasks to kill goblins, but the rewards they give are obviously not enough. There are no adventurers to accept such tasks. Adventurers would rather go to the village sewers to kill rats for a day. It’s more profitable than killing goblins!”

"I went to the village to see the rewards for low-level adventurers' missions. How do you think the reward of 2 gold coins is determined?"

Li Lin was in awe of the village chief, who was very far-sighted.

"Those villages thought that as long as they sent out the extermination mission, everything would be fine, and then they deceived themselves and waited for the adventurers to arrive. They had no idea how low the rewards they were giving were? Some villages couldn't even give a single silver coin as a reward. I think someone stole part of the reward. Maybe."

With a "thud", the wine glass was smashed on the table.

"There are more and more goblins in the wild, and the danger is getting bigger and bigger. The village is still deceiving itself that it has sent out a mission and is waiting for the adventurers to arrive. If the money is too little, no adventurer will be willing to leave the village and go to the countryside to take risks and kill Goblins. Brin, wouldn’t it be nice to spend a gold coin a day hunting rats in the sewers?”

"The most precious time is wasted like this. The number of goblins has grown tremendously. Even if the adventurers come, they cannot be easily solved. If you meet unreliable white porcelain adventurers, they will be killed by the goblins. die."

"If there are no adventurers to accept the mission and the number of goblins increases rapidly, they dare to attack the village. Even if the village is not destroyed, they will suffer heavy losses."

"Compared with the two gold coins we spent on hiring adventurers earlier, these losses are much heavier!"

After listening, Li Lin had a full understanding of the Goblin crisis. This was not just a Goblin problem. There was a big problem with the village's response. Facing such weak monsters as Goblins, they chose to let it go. Tigers become troubles.

When Goblins are weak, they can be easily killed by villagers. This makes villagers misjudge and think that Goblins that can be killed by villagers are easier to deal with than other monsters.

Precisely because the goblins are weak, they are unwilling to pay high rewards, resulting in no one to eliminate the goblins.

But there are no adventurers to take on the mission, and with the speed of goblin reproduction, it will eventually cause huge problems, and it's too late.
