Chapter 99 They got a new life
The group of people who came back from Stanlow had already arrived outside the gate of Hope Village.

When they saw the familiar "guard" at the door, many people's eyes were red again.

Only when they really saw that there were people in this territory did they feel that the dust had settled.

And the residents of Hope Village who came after receiving the news saw this scene when they came out.

But what flashed in everyone's eyes was unbearable.

Not for anything else, but these people look really miserable.

All of them were skinny, none of the clothes on their bodies were good, and there were obvious welts on some of the exposed flesh... It looked like they had been abused so badly.

At this time, a group of people also noticed the residents of Hope Village. Although they didn't look the same as them, they were all human beings, so they must be right.

One of them mustered up his courage and said, "We came back from Stanlow, and Hope Village exchanged us."

Hearing this, I hope that the residents of the village were a little surprised, and someone hesitated to say, "Stanlow Village? Isn't that the territory of the orcs?"

"Yes, we were taken away by orcs before and served as slaves."

"I thought we would never be free again, but I didn't expect that after your victory this time, you would be willing to exchange the spoils for us."

"If there is anything we need to do, just say it."

"We just want you to let us stay in Hope Village."

"..."

After hearing these people's words, the residents of Hope Village reacted one by one.

They had heard that other races would plunder population resources as slaves, but that was all heard, and today they really saw it.

No wonder they are so miserable!
Also, as a slave in the hands of orcs, how could life be better?

However, it was the territory that exchanged these people back?That's my own!
Zhou Bai was also among them, seeing the miserable appearance of them, young and old, he was also glad that he made the choice to exchange them.

Then, looking at the cautious expressions of these people, he said directly, "I hope the village is currently short of people, and I don't refuse to accept residents. You just need to pay the money."

"How much do you need?" Someone couldn't help asking, with apprehension on his face.

"Tourist status costs 10 copper coins per day, and resident status only needs 10 silver coins." Zhou Bai said, "Even if you don't have any, you can get them quickly. For those who collect wood and stone in the territory, 1 unit of wood is 1 copper coin, and stone is 1 unit. The unit is 2 copper coins, currently unlimited."

The price Zhou Bai said made everyone happy.

With such a low price, it is indeed easy for them to enter Hope Village. Even if they cannot become residents, they can still become tourists. As for residents, they just need to save slowly.

As long as their bodies recover, it will be a matter of time before they make money.

Not to mention, Hope Village unexpectedly collects these resources indefinitely.

Immediately, someone spoke.

"We can collect it right away, but we may need your help to sell it? Is it possible?"

The person who asked was also cautious.

Hearing this, the others also reacted one after another.

These people are not like them.

At least from the starting point, it is even worse than them!

They are not even prepared to take a break before starting work. They are probably penniless!
Thinking about it, someone spoke up.

"No problem, but you have to eat something first, take a rest before going!"

"You see, some of you still have families with you, so it's not suitable to be outside here."

"Let's lend you some money first, enter the territory first, and then you will pay us back later?"

"..."

Everyone, you said one sentence after another, and instantly confused this group of people.

It's because they have never seen such friendly residents, and they even said that they borrowed money for free.

After the initial touch, an idea couldn't help but arise in their hearts.

Is there a scam here?

As soon as this idea came out, it was quickly suppressed.

If it's a territory that doesn't know the details, maybe they should be more vigilant.

But this territory, which had just given up its low-hanging loot, saved them.

In this way, the residents in the territory should not have any bad thoughts towards them.

"Thank you." In the end, many people chose to accept help.

There is really no way.

They can't eat well, sleep well in the orc territory, and wake up every day to face heavy labor. Over time, their bodies can no longer bear it. They can persist here because they rely on their strength. Stock strength is supporting.

If they go to collect resources again, it is indeed easy to fall outside.

And it's a loan now, and they will definitely repay it after they recover.

After they agreed, someone at the scene began to borrow money without hesitation.

After some people borrowed money, they also took people inside along the way.

Coincidentally, you can also learn more about the world through these local residents.

There is a lot of people and strength, and within a short time, the more than 200 local residents were divided up and brought to Hope Village.

And after they entered Hope Village and looked at the prosperous territory, they couldn't help but look straight at each other.

Is this... still a village?

Smelling the scent from the commercial street, many people's stomachs started to growl.

However, many people still endured and avoided it, as if as long as they didn't look at it, they wouldn't be hungry.

But some children in the team couldn't help it, they stared straight at it without blinking.

"Mother, it smells so good!" After all, a little girl couldn't help it, and whispered to her mother.

As a mother, Miranda's nose couldn't help but sore when she heard this.

"Hey, I will take you to eat again when I have a chance."

"Okay." The little girl replied obediently. Having lived in the territory of the orcs, these children have long learned how to read words and expressions. Only by being obedient can they survive.

Zhou Bai stood aside and couldn't help sighing, but he still didn't make a move to buy them food after all.

The state of these people can be seen from a state of starvation for a long time. Such a situation is not suitable for eating too greasy food.

In this way, this group of people walked along the avenue in the territory, and came to the restaurant after a while.

The size of the restaurant is large enough, plus it serves porridge, it is indeed a good place to settle people temporarily.

As soon as they entered the restaurant, these people were arranged to sit down, and soon a bowl of porridge and steamed buns were placed in front of each of them.

It is such a simple meal, which is extremely rare for them, and it is also the most suitable at this time.

I could bear it in the commercial street before, but at this moment, I couldn't bear it anymore.

In the entire restaurant, most people couldn't wait to bury their heads and eat bitterly.

And a small part, bear to take care of the weak personnel and children first.

Miranda was one of them. Even though she was very hungry at this moment, she still fed her daughter immediately.

"Mother, it's delicious."

"Eat more if it's delicious."

"Mom, you eat too."

"Yeah." Miranda replied, her eyes blushing unconsciously.

The child followed her in the orc territory, and really suffered a lot.

In order to protect them, the child's father had died in the orc territory.

Safe now, no matter what the cost, she will take good care of her children.

At this moment, there are only two words in the minds of these returnees: hope.

Not only the hope of Hope Village, but also the hope brought to them by this territory.

They got a new life!
