Chapter 38

Ding!

[Congratulations, 10 warriors, 2 archers, 2 spear soldiers and 4 shield soldiers have joined you.] (Message x2)

[Congratulations, 10 laborers, 1 construction worker, 1 miner, 1 woodcutter, and 2 blacksmiths have joined your ranks.] (Message x2)

Rene did not consider the hiring fee. He recruited all the manpower he could.

Not only that, he was also prepared to edit all the ordinary warriors into Blade Warriors so that they would have stronger individual combat ability.

Of course, due to the production of the machete, it would take some time for these 20 people to complete the editing.

As for the laborers?

Rene kept them all.

He wanted to edit these laborers into blacksmiths to fill the work space of the blacksmith shop.

As of now, the territory already had three blacksmith shops.

Each blacksmith shop required four blacksmiths.

There were also the four blacksmiths he had to give Jessica.

He needed a total of 16.

Not only that, the blacksmith shop in the territory was about to reach Level 2.

At that time, each blacksmith shop could support six blacksmiths to work.

In total, he needed 22 blacksmiths.

Rene had to prepare for this now.

After all, with the high sales of the machete, he did not want to waste this period of time where he could make a lot of money.

At this thought, Rene checked the population of the territory again.

Yesterday morning, the total population of the territory was 78 people.

After a day and night, the population of the territory suddenly increased to 223 people!

This was the huge improvement brought by the level 2 buildings.

Still, the increase in population also gave Rene a big problem.

This trouble was the hiring fee.

Apart from Rene himself, there were 222 people in total. All of them needed to be paid for their employment.

A total of 29.26 gold coins.

Rene gulped at the sight of the number.

Right now, he felt very annoyed.

He had only slept for one night, why did his debt double?!

One had to know that before he upgraded his territory, the weekly hiring fee did not exceed 10 gold coins.

“This is troublesome…”

Rene looked at the territory’s vault.

In the end, he realized that it was near empty now.

Yesterday, he had spent all the gold coins in the territory and spent a lot of materials to buy gold coins from other players.

As for the money from the smelting workshop, he had just finished editing the Clay Monsters and recruiting the soldiers in the level 2 building, it was used up.

He looked at the time again.

Today was the fourth day since he came to this world, and three days later was the next week.

The issue was clear for Rene.

He had to collect 29 gold coins within three days, or the people in the territory would betray him.

Sigh—

Rene took a deep breath.

He couldn’t rush this.

He had to relax.

Although there was a lot of pressure on the hiring fee now, the production in the territory had also greatly increased.

There were currently 11 blacksmiths working in the blacksmith shop.

They produce 33 machetes per hour.

Calculating, the income they brought to the territory every hour should be 660 wood+660 stones.

There were also the Soft Water Slimes.

Since the territory needed to increase production, Rene edited the remaining slimes with drinking water and finally obtained seven Soft Water Slimes.

This way, there were 10 slimes that could produce drinking water. Together with one Water Rune Slime, they could produce about 24 liters of drinking water per hour.

According to the current price, the net profit was 480 wood.

The income of the Fire Rune Slimes was temporarily ignored.

Even so, the territory could still earn 1,800 units of basic resources per hour.

Rene settled his lunch briefly, then left with the hunting party.

Today’s mission was very simple. It was to reach Level 4.

The only requirement was to stay as far away from the territory as possible.

The beasts within three kilometers were all food reserves.

Unless absolutely necessary, he would try not to touch this natural warehouse.

…

In the forest.

Ding!

[After killing the Forest Lizard, the Blazing Archer received 5 EXP.]

[The Blazing Archer killed the Forest Lizard. The Overlord received 5 EXP.]

[After killing the Forest Python…]

[After killing the Long Fur Bear…]

It was still the beginner’s protection period. The probability of monsters appearing was very low.

Therefore, most of those wandering in the forest were wild beasts.

When faced with a team led by elite soldiers, they had no way of retaliating.

Just like that, Rene swept past the obstacles.

Rene spent the entire afternoon, almost five hours, in the forest.

Everyone’s level rose very quickly.

The Blazing Archers all reached Level 5, and the Blade Warriors also reached Level 4.

Rene, the Overlord, was no exception.

At three in the afternoon, he reached Level 4.

However, Rene was not in a hurry to return after reaching Level 4.

He continued to grind until night time, then brought the team back to the territory.

At this time, in the private message column, Jessica could no longer sit still and sent a message first.
