wasteland ranch

Chapter 170 Beauty Pageant Policy
"Lord, do you want to be king?"

"Have the entire wasteland in your hands, just like Metropolis, no, do it better than Metropolis!"

Gui Xingchao looked at Lin Guiyao with burning eyes.

He is a very ambitious person, but he is not Sima Yi, he knows restraint and gratitude,
What's more, the entire City of Hope was built by the person in front of him.

Without Lin Guiyao's miraculous seeds, without those colleagues who work together, the entire Hope City is nothing more than a bigger city, and it simply cannot support his crazy ambitions.

The most important thing is that Lin Guiyao understands him, believes in him, and is more confidant than a confidant. For him who has counterattacked from the downfall, this is a great benefactor who gave him a second life and a better life.

"Anyway, I don't know how long I can live with this headache, so let me push you to a higher position!"

But Lin Guiyao shook his head,

He refused.

The original goal of establishing Hope City was nothing more than to survive, and then use it to find Bai Ruochu. This goal has not changed.

And most of the time, Lin Guiyao is a person who is content with the status quo. Although he has the desire to fight for hegemony when he was reading novels, but in reality, he still prefers to be a lord who dominates one side.

He doesn't provoke people, and others don't provoke him, just stay honestly in this safe haven he built, and expand his strength according to the utopia he imagined.

Before being forced to the point of no choice, developing well is the kingly way. Unless his own strength can be pushed equally, otherwise he will not participate in this kind of competition.

Just like when he played the Three Kingdoms game before, he always liked to develop only one city, recruit talents, expand financial and food income, and only began to gradually erode the surrounding areas when he had a great advantage.

Of course, if anyone dares to provoke him, then he will not mind returning the favor, tooth for tooth, eye for eye, and accept everything from the other party.

"Let's put this aside for now. Our primary goal is to survive. If the threat from Metropolis cannot be stabilized with common interests, how do you think we can survive their offensive?"

Gui Xingchao shook his head and sighed, he is a good lord, but sometimes he is a little bit less motivated.

"It's very difficult. According to what you said, the Metropolis already knows that the seeds in our hands can be harvested quickly and can't be stolen at all. Then we are already on the Metropolis' blacklist. After all, the Meaning, but too amazing."

"We haven't done anything yet, it's just that we happened to be in a sensitive period of fighting the rebel army. Presumably they also know how sensitive the nerves of the lords they squeezed are, and the slightest disturbance can stir up their rebellious spirits." Heart."

Hearing this, Lin Guiyao nodded with a wry smile. From this point of view, the metropolis is a safe place, but in the end he will be hindered by some flies. Fortunately, he has room to develop.

"So, once the rebel army is put down, unless the metropolis is stupid, they will definitely reshuffle the outside forces and forcefully incorporate them into their system, and wait for them to solve the historical problems left over by the previous metropolis rulers. At that time, we were afraid that we would be the first batch of objects to be cleaned up."

"Well, that's why we have to make a deal with the rebel army, isn't it?" Lin Guiyao spread his hands.

Even if the risk is huge, if the rebel army is defeated too quickly, it will be of no benefit to Hope City. It is the last word to fight with the gods and grow up secretly.

As for haggling so hard, Hope City really doesn't have much food left.

"Haha, yes, I imagine that there must be a lot of territory we have done this way. If every family is looking for trouble, the metropolis will not have to fight this battle."

After laughing, Gui Xingchao said seriously: "However, in order to prepare for a rainy day, we may have to win over some territories as allies in the near future, and then we don't have to face the liquidation of the metropolis alone. Of course, developing our own strength is the first priority. Only when you are so strong that no one can ignore it can you control the right to speak. Leave this matter to me!"

"Well, I believe you can handle it well, and then the predators..."

"Don't worry, the lord. It's just a mob. In just three months, our new city wall will be almost completed. Even if it's too late, there's still you, the lord."

Lin Guiyao knew what the returning star tide was referring to. It was nothing more than a new batch of secret weapons that he had recently acquired. If it was those, there was really no need to worry too much.

Although there are also a large number of predators, if there is no discipline, as long as they can cause a quarter of their battle damage, they can be repelled. possible.

"Okay, but you still have to hurry up on this matter, and investigate the plan of the looters as soon as possible, the number of people, weapons, and speed up the progress on the city wall. Use the money and so on, don't save it."

"Ok!"

Everything was agreed, and the city of hope will be up and running quickly.

A large number of refugees were hired as workers, and merchants from all directions were constantly bringing in various building materials to quickly build the new city wall modeled on the metropolis.

And the news that Hope City bought a large number of slaves finally fermented. Every day, fierce-looking slave traders brought a group of crying slaves to Hope City, and continued to go out non-stop after the transaction was completed.

As for where they captured the slaves, Hope City never asked, as long as the slaves could pass, they would just give them money.

This also led to a surge in the number of refugees flowing into various territories, especially Hope City, because they continued to wander outside at this time, and nine out of ten they would also be arrested by slave traders.

And joining Hope City, although you have to sign a contract similar to prostitution, but at least food, housing and safety are worry-free. If you work hard and are promoted to be a leader, citizen or even a villager, it will be like winning the lottery. To the pinnacle of life.

Even those slaves who were bought were a little bit unbelievable after they figured out the policies of City of Hope. These slaves were treated better than ordinary members of small territories!

So their mentality quickly changed, from sad and hopeless to more positive and optimistic, welcoming their new lord and new life.

After all, living well is more important than anything else.

Under such circumstances, City of Hope spent less budget than expected, but gained a rapidly expanding population, so that Returning Stars had to propose a stricter household registration policy.

And this policy was once called a beauty pageant...
