"Your Majesty! We're done researching Taming! "After Zhao Fu gave the order, Bai Shan ran over with a joyous expression on her face.
When Zhao Fu heard this, he felt very happy. After waiting for so long, the Research Workshop finally showed some results. He nodded and headed to the Research Workshop, and there, he saw some Scholars and new stone inscriptions.
When the Scholars saw that Zhao Fu had arrived, they respectfully retreated to one side. Zhao Fu walked over and placed his hand on the stone inscription, and some information was transmitted to his mind:
[Tuner]: F + Military grade. Description: Received the ability to tame a savage beast. Effect: Accepting the [Taming] skill.
Seeing this, Zhao Fu brought the two villagers to change their profession to Tamer and then ordered people to catch some wild ducks and tame geese.
Right now, Great Qin Village was extremely lacking in people. There were many things to do, so they had to use many Goblins to make up for their flaws. As for exploring the gap, they waited for the stairs to be built before entering again.
After going to the west of Great Qin Village, Zhao Fu went to see the newly built Gnome Village. The Gnomes all lowered their heads respectfully and retreated to one side. Zhao Fu found the five Mechanics Scholars and ordered them to start researching the ballads.
After returning to Great Qin Village, Bai Shan came over and asked, "Your Majesty, what do you want to do for your next research?"
Zhao Fu had almost forgotten that the Scholars had nothing to do now that they had successfully researched Taming. There were too many problems to take care of, and Zhao Fu began to feel somewhat overwhelmed. After thinking for a moment, he replied Bai Shan, "Start researching the teleportation channel!"
Teleportation channels are absolutely necessary. If Great Qin Village could successfully research the teleportation channel, they would make going from village to village easier, and Zhao Fu also needed to be able to visit the main city. Right now, they had nowhere to spend the money they made, so he wanted to go to the main city to see what they could buy.
After receiving his orders, Bai Shan took his men and returned to the workshop to start researching.
At this moment, someone came to report that they had found the Human Village about five kilometers north of Great Qin Village.
Zhao Fu immediately invited some people to take a look. He wanted to determine if it was an ordinary village or a bandit village. However, no matter what it was, Zhao Fu wanted to get more villagers from this village. Relying on summoning every day was too slow, and the Great Qin Village was extremely devoid of villagers.
About an hour later, they arrived at the Human Village. They stood on higher ground and looked down at the village, and Zhao Fu inwardly muttered, "The villages outside cannot compare to human villages at all."
For defense, the village had thick wooden planks as walls, and there were people standing guard around it. Once there is an enemy attack, they will immediately sound the alarm. The guards also gathered tightly because their village was in the wilderness. Because of this, they were constantly surrounded by danger, so they had to focus on defense.
The village has about 400 people. There are about 60 elderly and children and about 160 women. About 200 others were men, making the village more like an ordinary village than a bandit village. Moreover, most of the guards had leather armor and iron swords, so the village was much more prosperous than Great Qin Village. After all, Great Qin Village still used weapons made of Iron Wood, and the soldiers only had 10 sets of leather armor.
Most of the soldiers were Militias, but some of them were holding bows and arrows and some were holding shields, even though they did not have a suitable profession. Archers, Shieldbearers, and Cavalry needed to be scrutinized or unlocked when a village leveled up. Intermediate Villages could unlock Shieldbearers, Advanced Villages could unlock Archers, and Towns could unlock Cavalry.
Right now, those holding bows and arrows and shields were relying on their own efforts and skills. They had no statistics or professional skills, making them half as effective as those who had professions.
If Zhao Fu could conquer this village, he would be able to instantly obtain the numbers he needed for the Great Qin Village. However, if he were to bring his people and attack, he would face solid defenses and enemies with double the number, so he would definitely lose a lot of his soldiers and most likely suffer defeat.
Zhao Fu and Bai Qi headed to the village entrance, and the guards immediately called out in loud voices, "Who are you people?"
Bai Qi would reply, but Zhao Fu hinted him to stop and said, "I am the Village Chief of Great Qin Village, the nearest village, and I came to visit your village. Can I make it difficult for your Village Chief to meet with Me? ”
The guards immediately went to report the matter, and after a while, the gate opened as a young man in white walked out and smiled at Zhao Fu, cupping his hands respectfully as he said, "I invited you in!"
Zhao Fu returned his clothes, after which he and Bai Qi followed the young man to a building. After walking in, they saw a white-bearded elder sitting down. When the elder saw Zhao Fu and Bai Qi, he stood up and smiled as he gestured with his hands for them to sit down, and the maids brought tea.
“I never thought that this village would receive honored guests. I apologize for our poor hospitality, ” said the elder apologetically.
Zhao Fu calmly smiled as he replied, "The Village Chief is too polite. Our village has not been here long, and we have just found your esteemed village and come to visit. We're very late to do it, so we hope you're not against us. "
The village chief felt very surprised. “This old man felt very curious why a village suddenly appeared near us. So, you've only been here for a short time. In the wilderness, danger lurked everywhere, and it was hard to find a safe place. "
Zhao Fu nodded and was just about to say something when a young man walked over with a serious expression, reporting, "Village Head! The people of the Wild Wolf Village had come demanding food again. "
The elder's expression became solemn and apologized to Zhao Fu and Bai Qi before leaving with the others.
"Your Majesty!" Bai Qi said as he turned to look at Zhao Fu.
Zhao Fu nodded and they followed the Village Chief outside. They saw 10 or so cruel-looking people standing there, and a big, dark-skinned, ugly-faced thug wailing, "Fuck old man, hand over your food!"
The young man in white became angry and was about to step up to say something but was restrained by the elder, who ordered, "Give them food!"
The villagers obeyed the elder's order and took out 10 sacks of food and placed them at the village entrance.
The criminal laughed complacently after seeing so many sacks of food and exclaimed, “You're a very smart man, a fucking old man.” After speaking, the criminal ordered the others to carry the sack of food and leave.
When the young man in white saw them off, he coldly bluffed. Zhao Fu went up and asked what had just happened, and the situation was explained to him by the Village Chief.
The village was called the Li Family Village, and the Village Chief was called Li Youcai, while the white-skinned youth, his son, was called Li Wen.
Wild Wolf Village was a bandit village that was about eight kilometers away from the Li Family Village. The Wild Wolf Village had around 300 people, but as a bandit village, it basically had no women, elderly, or children, and most of the 300 or so people were men. They are all bandits,******, and criminals, and they have a pretty good fighting team.
If the Wild Wolf Village wanted to attack the Li Family Village, with their solid defense, the Wild Wolf Village would still lose a lot of people. The Li Family Village was also afraid that the bandits would plunder and destroy their village, so they maintained a non-aggression pact. However, the Li Family Village needed to hand over a certain amount of food each month.
