Conquering alien worlds starts from the game
Chapter 473 Blackstone Village
In April 1033 of the new calendar in foreign world time, in Takia, a carriage from Creek City was driving on a small road in the northern plains.
This carriage has no roof, and the body made of wooden boards has several sacks stacked on one side, and a few undead cloths wrapped in waterproof tarpaulin on the other side; in the small triangle between the pile of sacks and the tarpaulin, sits a A man with bent legs, a suitcase at his feet, and a windbreaker.
The driver is a father and son, the father in his prime is a taciturn man, and his lively son wearing a straw hat is very talkative.
"If it's someone else's house, I don't necessarily know it, but if it's the White's house, I'm too familiar with it, sir."
Sitting sideways on the fender above the front wheel, the young boy waved his arms tirelessly to the guests who paid for his ride: "The Whites live in the building not far from our house." In the red-roofed house, the Whites are working on the farm next door to the village, and they have two younger sisters, one of whom is said to work as a maid in a good family in the town..."
The man hitchhiking raised his head slightly, revealing a slightly pale and haggard face with stubble on the chin under the windproof hood—if it wasn’t for this man sitting, he could also see that he was big and strong, really Make people wonder whether he is a patient.
"I heard that White is serving as a soldier for the lord, with a high annual salary, and his sister needs to work as a maid in the town?" The guest asked strangely with his hoarse voice that seemed to have burned his throat due to a long-term illness.
"Ah, sir, what a coincidence, I happen to know about this." The young boy who tried his best to pretend to be an adult tried his best to put on a worldly look with his immature face, pretending to be deep and authentic, "Mr. It is true that my son can send home a lot of money every year, which is enough to allow many families to live an easy life, but their family is different... just to pay off debts is not enough!"
"The White family is in debt?" the guest asked doubtfully.
"Yes, sir. When I was young..." the teenage boy said in the tone of memory that adults would laugh when they heard it, "the White family was still very well off. But their luck is not very good, One year when mad sheep disease was prevalent, their family also suffered a disaster, not to mention losing everything, and owed a lot of money..."
The guest frowned.
Tachia leads the north, and livestock herding is very common.
Compared with farmers with land, livestock farmers are always better off... But if natural and man-made disasters occur, livestock farmers are always more likely to suffer—if livestock infectious diseases are prevalent in any year, they will have to A group of livestock farmers went bankrupt.
However, the White family's situation is still unreasonable.
Lieutenant Elan White, first-class archer of the main regiment of the Taqiya Defense Army, an elite soldier, with an annual salary of forty gold coins.
This kind of income is still far from the middle class, but it is obviously not right to say that Elan White’s total income of six years in the army still has not paid off the family’s debts—the local livestock farmers cannot own like farmers. Because the large tracts of land are planted with pastures, they can only rely on free-range breeding in the mountains and forests. The size of the sheep raised is often not very large, and a hundred or so will be enough.
Even if the White family unfortunately suffered from mad sheep disease and all the sheep died, at most they lost a hundred or so gold coins.
Losing so much money is really bad for an ordinary livestock family... But the eldest son of the White family is still very angry, and it stands to reason that he should have paid it off long ago.
If Elan White's family had a gambling prodigal son... that's not like it, his parents both still work on the farm, and he has no other brothers.
After thinking about the information about Elan White, a senior soldier, and comparing it with the information provided by the young boy, the guest pondered for a moment and asked, "Whose family owes the White family money?"
"Master Bud's house." The young boy said without thinking.
"Master Bud?"
"Yes, sir, the owner of the farm next door to our village."
The young boy seemed to have found something new to talk about, and he talked endlessly about this Master Bud's family... nothing more than how rich their family is, and even the maids are hired from the city.
The hitchhiker—yes, I think the witty reader guessed it—was none other than Captain Miles of the Night's Watch, who took over a background check from City Hall.
Among the more than [-] defenders who participated in the battle that day, about [-]% came from various noble private soldiers... There is no need to investigate these people. After isolation and observation confirm that they have nothing to do with the cult, they can be directly dragged to build roads.
Officers and non-commissioned officers don’t need to investigate, and they will be dragged to build roads after registration—even if there are some “wronged” people among them, it doesn’t matter, anyway, they can be released early if they perform well, and there may be opportunities for employment arrangements, which is not too bad.
Among the remaining [-] or so soldiers, most of the low-ranking soldiers didn't need to make any effort. It was difficult for such low-level professional soldiers to even get out of the barracks gate, and they had no chance to do evil.
Secondary soldiers and upper-class soldiers are the main body of background checks—especially upper-class soldiers. This kind of "veteran" is very close to the threshold of a non-commissioned officer. opportunities and conditions.
The purpose of Captain Miles' trip to Wilkie, a small town in the north of Creek City, was to investigate twelve privates from that town and the surrounding countryside.
Among them, the first class soldier named Elan White, who was born in Blackstone Village, is the key target of Captain Miles' investigation.
Before departure, Captain Miles deliberately checked the information on the rural nobles in Wilkie Town, but the surname Bud was not among them.
"It shouldn't be someone who owns a farm in that area... Maybe it's the housekeeper of some family." Hearing the young boy's chatter, Captain Miles thought to himself.
The country people can't tell the difference between the housekeeper assigned to the farm and the real master's house, but any decent person who comes in and out with a carriage and servants is a "lord" in the eyes of the country people.
Before noon, the horse-drawn carriage that Miles took on the side of the road drove into Heishi Village.
The villagers in the northern part of Takia Territory are much better off than those in the southern part, and most of them have spare money in their hands.
When the carriage entered the village, Captain Miles had just jumped out of the carriage and was about to bid farewell to the father and son when he saw the young boy who had been chattering all the way take a breath, opened his mouth wide, and shouted into the village with an astonishingly loud voice: "Undead Spirit... Bra is back——!”
There was a buzzing in Captain Miles' mind, and he was forced to take half a step back by the astonishing sound.
Many villagers opened their homes and strode towards the carriage parked on the wheat drying field at the entrance of the village...
Buying rolls of undead cloth is still stressful for the villagers in the north of Takia Territory, but a few families pool their money to buy one, and then ask people in the village who want to go to the city to help deliver the goods, which is better than going to the town to buy. It's a good deal—the undead cloth sold by profiteers in the town costs twelve copper coins per meter, and it only costs ten copper coins to buy it in the city.
Those families who collected money in advance and handed it over to the coachman and his son as "purchasing agents", paid ten copper coins for "purchasing" fees, and then they could take away the rolls of cloth and take them back to their homes to share slowly.
After taking the cloth of each family, the villagers did not rush to disperse, and they still gathered around the carriage.
At this time, the taciturn coachman had already climbed onto the car, untied the ropes tied to the sacks, and poured out a bag of white fine salt wrapped in plastic with a cartoon skull printed on the bag...
"Give me two packs!"
"Our family wants four packs!"
The villagers around the carriage were excited again, pushing forward with varying amounts of coins.
The coachman and his son feed their horses into the city before dawn, of course not just to earn some money for "purchasing" undead cloth... Buying cheap undead salt from the city and reselling it is the business of the father and son.
Captain Miles, who was squeezed far away, watched this scene dumbfounded.
On the second day after the undead regime took control of Creek City, Captain Miles was dragged by Metz to the port to help unload the cargo—the cargo ship from Innadril had loaded several Large hold for cargo.
Undead Cloth, Undead Salt, Westem Potato Powder, Du Tata Fresh Lotus Root, Canned Inadoli… There are even Tarantan radios (earth products) that are only priced in silver coins, and the same price is only ten or so You can get an all-steel frame bicycle (produced by Inadoli) for a silver coin.
As soon as these goods from the south were put up for public sale, Creek City, which was deserted due to the impact of the siege battle and the undead running around in the streets, instantly regained its vitality...
Gold Coin Parish is always the most popular area for trading. Look, in just a few days, even the country people know how to resell these cheap and affordable southern products.
Captain Miles waited patiently on the outside of the crowd for a while, until a villager bought undead salt and squeezed out of the crowd to walk home, then he came forward and inquired about the family tradition of the White family.
Just when Captain Miles was inquiring about the news of the White family in Heishi Village... A group of uninvited guests came to the large pasture land owned by the farmer next door to Heishi Village.
"It should be in this direction..." Miaobi Shenghua held the map he got in the town and looked around, "Butler Bud's lair is two kilometers east of Heishi Village—strange, we went right Direction, where is this village, why haven't I seen an NPC after walking for a long time?"
Give me medicine and follow behind Miaobi Shenghua with a sad face: "I said Huahua... I can't help you with this kind of non-combat mission, why not—"
"Not as tall as you!" Miaobi Shenghua glared, "Sister Ying is offline, Jialuo Xiaotang and the others are in class, if you don't help me, who will help me? Do you want me to be a nanny to run the task by myself?"
"I feel that Sister Ying is technically offline...otherwise she would not be hacked to death by that kind of weak NPC, who can be fooled by her acting skills." Give me medicine and squint.
"Wow, you still want to drive a wedge between our sisterhood!"
"No, no, I don't mean that." Give me the medicine and quickly wave your hands. If you offend the nanny, you will be released. If you don't treat and care for him, the crispy walker will die quickly, "The night watchman task we picked is too much trouble Well, I’ve been running around endlessly, I think if this trip is over, let’s do another task, there’s no need to die..."
"Brother Yao! Huahua!"
A player who was running ahead to explore the path came back happily, and waved his arms while running: "There is someone! There is an NPC ahead!"
