The infinite journey of knights

Chapter 50 Ambition
"If you do this, won't it have any effect?"

Seth took a deep look at Yatim, and asked like this.

"What effect can it have?"

Yatimu shook his head, and said softly: "This place is big enough, there are many rooms inside, and it can be accommodated with a little repair."

"I'm alone, so there's no need to live in such a big yard."

"Your character is admirable."

After chatting for a while, Seth couldn't help but sighed with admiration.

From the chat, he learned that Yadimu not only brought some children from the neighborhood to live here, but also bought rations for them at his own expense.

This approach, even for modern people, is admirable charity.

And if it is compared to the professional group of this world, it is even more rare.

"As time goes by, the price of food will continue to get higher and higher, so I'm afraid there will be problems sooner or later."

Standing where he was, Yadimu couldn't help but speak while looking at the children playing outside.

Changes in food prices have been clearly felt by Yadimo in the past few days.

After returning to this world, he actually didn't have much money on him, that is, a batch of trophies distributed to him by Deli after the previous battle.

That is considered a relatively generous income. Although he could not live a luxurious life in the past, it is still no problem to support a dozen people with rations.

But now it's stressful.

Because the price of food is getting higher and higher.

This is normal.

Part of the food supply in Xiliu Town was brought by outside merchants.

At various times of the year, merchants would come from all over the place to buy furs and medicinal materials from nearby, and sell other commodities and food along the way.

The other part is the villages scattered all over the place.

Those villages are scattered all over Xiliu Town, and most of the food they usually harvest will be transported to Xiliu Town for processing to support a large number of craftsmen and soldiers in Xiliu Town.

But at this time, with the arrival of the evil disaster, outside businessmen will not be able to count on it for a while.

As for local production activities, they were also greatly disrupted by the demonized creatures.

In this case, the stock of food will become less and less, and the price will become higher and higher.

Even a bad one can lead to a famine, causing a large number of people to starve to death.

Yatimu didn't want to see this scene.

He had seen famine.

When he was very young, he had seen many people starve to death in his father's territory.

That scene is still fresh in his memory.

"My logistics officer will come later, and will also bring a batch of food and other commodities."

Seth said, "Also, I have an idea."

"There are too many refugees in Stream Town right now, and the burden is too great. If possible, I would like to recruit some."

He revealed his true purpose.

Conquering Xiliu Town is a long-term goal, and it will definitely not be achieved in the short term.

However, while the evil disaster is in progress, it is absolutely possible to gather as many refugees as possible and increase the population of one's own territory.

In this wilderness full of dangers, there is no shortage of cultivated land, but a lack of people to cultivate it.

Population, this is definitely the most precious resource in this wasteland.

In the past, after Seite conquered the territory, he gathered the strength of most of the nearby players and used various means to gather a population of 5 to [-].

But now, with the arrival of the evil disaster, the emergence of a large number of refugees made it possible to gather the population.

Because right now, there are refugees everywhere.

These refugees lost their homes and almost everything, and are now reduced to nothing.

As long as they are given a way to survive, they can be recruited smoothly.

In Xiliu Town alone, there are already nearly ten thousand refugees at this moment.

And there's more out there.

For these refugees, Seth made no secret of his thoughts.

"Mr. Mayor may have some problems, but at this moment, I think he will agree."

Yatimu thought for a moment, then said so.

He was happy with Seth's idea of ​​recruiting refugees.

These refugees continued to stay in Xiliu Town, and the final outcome would probably not be too good.

Instead of waiting here to die and wasting time, it is better to leave with Seth and go to open up a new home.

Of course, out of instinct, the mayor of Xiliu Town may be somewhat repulsive.

After all, these refugees are considered one of the properties of Xiliu Town.

According to the thinking of traditional lords, they would rather these people starve to death in their own territory than to take advantage of others for no reason.

In their view, the so-called refugees are a piece of property.

Yatimu's own father was a lord, and he couldn't be more clear about such people's thoughts.

But then again, Stream Town itself is not ruled by a lord.

Although the entire Xiliu Town is actually self-governing, it still belongs directly to the royal family in name.

This also means that although the mayor of Xiliu Town has a lot of power, it is not enough to regard the entire Xiliu Town as his private property.

This leaves room for negotiation.

As for Seth's ambition to recruit refugees under those words, Yatimu didn't care.

It is a good thing to have development ambitions in Yatimu's view.

Ambition and self-motivation, in his opinion, are actually the same thing, just in different terms.

In Yatimu's view, as long as Seth does not cause others to suffer because of his own ideas, then he is free to do whatever he wants.

Recruiting refugees?

This is definitely a good thing at the moment.

"That couldn't be better."

After probably understanding Yatimu's attitude, Seth suddenly smiled.

Before, he had also tested the meaning of Deli and the mayor himself.

Deli said he didn't care about his idea of ​​recruiting refugees, but the mayor was somewhat hesitant.

But as long as Yatimu is willing to support, then there will be no problem.

As a professional, Yatimu is not the core leader of this place, but he definitely has enough weight.

After all, for a long time to come, the safety of the town will depend on Yatimu's help.

"Speaking of which, with your strength, Mr. Yadimu, why did you choose to stay here?"

During the chat, Seth suddenly asked curiously: "I have come into contact with a few people with the same profession, and as far as I know, they don't seem to want to stay around here."

This question stopped Yatimu.

So he thought for a while, and then gave a reply: "The people here are very good to me, whether it is Captain Deli or Mr. Mayor."

"But from the bottom of my heart, if the disaster is over, I shouldn't stay in this place forever, but I will choose to go out and have a look."

He opened his mouth and finally expressed his thoughts: "Different places have different scenery. I want to take advantage of the opportunity now to go out and see more."

"Maybe this is what other people think too?"

Yatimu didn't mean to stay in Xiliu Town all the time.

He initially stayed in Xiliu Town because of the language barrier and because he returned soon.

As for this time, it was because of the arrival of the evil disaster that needed his strength.

But after the calamity ended and the surrounding situation stabilized, Yatim also wanted to visit other places.

Noah's world, this is a world that is very different from the dawn world.

Even if it is the same world, there are also many wonderful things in it, not to mention crossing the world.

Since Yadimo has this kind of encounter and opportunity, he naturally should cherish it and go to other places to see more in the future to increase his experience and experience.

Before that, even though he had awakened the memory of his previous life and learned more things, that memory was the past after all, just like watching a long movie.

He can only give Yatimu a reference, but he cannot solve his doubts.

In his mind, Yatim had many doubts that needed to be answered.

And these questions, destined to only rely on himself to find the answer.
