Traveling through the world of beasts: I lead the system to build an empire
Chapter 506 Lack of people
All departments are currently short of staff, and no one wants to see a situation where no one is available. The atmosphere became heavy as Chi Yu spoke.
Seeing that everyone was in a bad mood, Su Mo quickly tried to smooth things over.
"This is already very good. You know, in my hometown, it takes 16 years to go from elementary school to university. How can we just get there?"
"I've graduated from elementary school in just over a year. To be honest, I didn't expect it."
These words were indeed Su Mo's true feelings.
She had always thought that orcs were not very smart and might not learn very quickly. When she learned that someone had jumped five levels, she was shocked.
Even though those who skipped grades were adult orcs, it was enough to shock Su Mo.
You have to know that they didn’t even know how to count at the beginning, and they had to learn to hold a pen from scratch. They needed to be taught step by step.
"How can that be the same?" Ming Feng immediately retorted, "What we train for sixteen years is a divine messenger. We only want employees who can do the work."
All the males nodded in agreement with Mingfeng's words.
In their opinion, Su Mo was a messenger sent by the Beast God, which meant she came from the temple, and her school was also in the temple.
What does it mean to go to school in the temple and graduate?
Messenger of God.
A messenger of God has the ability to change the entire continent and to feed all orcs.
And those colleagues who traded with Su Mo (system mall owners) were all capable people who could take out a lot of food at once.
It only takes sixteen years to train a messenger of God. The males can't even imagine what kind of powerful teacher it would take, or what the intensity of teaching would be, to be able to train so many capable messengers of God in such a short time.
Facing those serious and yearning faces, Su Mo smiled awkwardly.
She was embarrassed to say that she studied for sixteen years and still ended up being a useless person.
It is even possible that you cannot find a job and cannot even be a slave.
Compared with the orcs in the tribe, there is really no comparison.
After all, the tribe is in a state of disrepair and is extremely short of manpower, so people can be assigned jobs after graduation.
The more she thought about it, the more unbalanced she felt, so Su Mo decisively chose to skip this sad topic.
She looked around and found that only Jiankang and Tinglang had not given a brief progress report. Su Mo looked at Jiankang, "Where's Jiankang?"
Even though his health is still affected, he still does a lot of things every day.
His stumbling figure with a cane could be seen all over the tribe. He was a man of great strength despite his disability.
Jiankang didn't answer immediately, but glanced at the others. He paused before saying seriously, "The construction of the farm has been completed. We started the finishing work the day before yesterday. It is expected to be completed in three days and will be handed over to the Ministry of Households."
"The drainage systems in the five districts have been basically completed, but the recent constant rain has hampered the paving of the main roads, so the specific construction date will have to wait until the hot season."
It rains a lot during the rainy season, which is force majeure and no one can do anything about it.
It is not realistic to arrange racks to keep out the rain during the entire road paving process. After all, it won't matter if it is done earlier or later.
Jiankang talked about the construction progress of the offices of various departments and divisions, and the progress of the city wall improvement. At the end, he added, "I am also short of people."
Okay, now back to the core issue.
In preparation for war, the tribe had to stockpile food in advance. This year, Mu Yang expanded the area of arable land and the scale of breeding, and most of the tribe's personnel were assigned to do these two things.
Only a small number of orcs are left to engage in large-scale infrastructure construction.
These people are responsible for all internal construction of the tribe, the construction of the palace, temples and city walls. Each part requires a large number of people and there is a shortage of people.
"There's really nothing we can do about it." Mu Yang was troubled when he mentioned manpower. It was true that one regrets not having enough manpower when needed. "Now the whole tribe is working. Even the ten-year-old orcs have been assigned work after school."
In fact, not only the little orcs, but even the teachers who taught the classes, rushed to the construction site without stopping after class.
There are also those females who have never done any work before and have been treated like a fool at home, but they are also busy in the management level without having to rest.
Mu Yang really admired them.
Let’s not say they lived a life of luxury. In the past, the life of orcs was not luxurious at all. At best, they had enough food and drink.
Mu Yang didn't expect that those females who never worried about their livelihood and had never worked could burst out with such great energy, and no one would give up.
In the past, Mu Yang had never thought that one day he would become the chieftain of a super large tribe with 300,000 orcs. He had never thought that even with 300,000 people under his command, he would still face a shortage of manpower.
"Then how about lowering the age to eight years old?" Chi Yu proposed to hire child laborers in front of Su Mo.
Orcs have no concept of employing child labor, and those under ten years old are not allowed to work. This was Su Mo's request, otherwise the males would even let the little orcs who can walk come out to work.
How can someone be so cruel and crazy.
As a result, before Su Mo even opened her mouth, Jian Kang rejected the idea. "It's too young. What we need is an adult orc who can do heavy work and has great strength."
What can those kids do?
The little things that ten little orcs could carry with great effort were not as much as what an adult orc could carry in one trip.
If the little orc is too tired, his parents might not be happy.
In the past, if the little orcs were too tired, the parents would think that the little orcs were in poor health. But it is different now, because the little orcs are all studying.
You have knowledge in your head, so you can't get tired.
There are only so many workers, and it is impossible for the tribe to recruit openly at this stage. This is an almost unsolvable problem.
Seeing that everyone was frowning, Su Mo, as the core of the family, was used to coming out to ease the atmosphere. "Don't worry, there's nothing we can do about it. The task doesn't have to be completed on time. It's okay to be late."
If you are late, you won’t get any quest rewards. There are so many orcs in the tribe, and you can make the money back by fleecing them one by one.
Anyway, Su Mo will not do business at a loss.
Besides, this thing should be done within one's ability and cannot be forced. No matter how anxious you are, you can't create a person out of thin air.
Su Mo tried her best to persuade them, but she didn't know how much the males listened to. Ming Feng didn't listen to a word at all.
His eyes rolled around and suddenly he slammed the table excitedly, "Wait!"
Everyone looked at him.
"Who said there are no people?" Ming Feng's eyes, which were already sharp, were surprisingly bright at this moment. "A large number of adult orcs, with strong physiques and great strength, don't the orcs of the Northern Continent fit the bill perfectly?"
Due to the cold climate and long cold season, the orcs in the northern continent generally have longer hair and are larger in size than orcs in other places.
With thick fat and lots of muscles, the strength can't be that small.
It does meet these conditions.
No one said anything, but Mingfeng thought about it and felt that it made more and more sense. He became more and more excited and even stood up from the dining table.
Mingfeng clenched his right fist and clapped his left palm, his eyes filled with excitement.
"Besides, it is difficult to go to any other continent in the North Continent. It is isolated from the outside world and difficult to pass on information. If we pack them all up and take them away, they may not be discovered by the Temple for ten or eight years."
Su Mo nodded casually when she heard this, without making any comment.
This is true.
The northern continent is surrounded by the Beast God Mountains. It takes more than a month to venture over the Giant Beast Mountains to the nearest tiger tribe.
It would take at least half a year to cross the mountains to reach the Western Continent or the Temple. If you want to be safe and avoid the mountains where giant beasts gather, you may not be able to reach the neighboring Western Continent or Eastern Continent even after taking a detour for a year.
The interior of the Northern Continent is also vast and sparsely populated, and the several small tribes are almost separated by several forests and hills.
Moreover, as the northern continent progresses, the cold season lasts longer and the climate becomes colder. This geographical environment has caused the orcs in the northern continent to become stay-at-home moms and dads. They rarely go out and almost never leave the territory of their own tribe.
Therefore, even if a few tribes were tricked away, no one would discover it in the short term.
But the Lord of North Beast City is a member of the Temple. He would definitely notice the large-scale loss of personnel and report it to the Temple.
Although she would have to confront Gong Yicheng sooner or later, Su Mo did not want Gong Yicheng to find her in the Tiger Tribe.
Gong Yicheng is too strong, so strong that it is unpredictable.
As a defected host, even if he lost the system, Su Mo would never believe that he had no other cards.
After being recruited by him, many people in the Tiger Tribe became his servants.
This is also the reason why Su Mo agreed to attend the witch doctor training session five years later.
She wanted to get rid of Gong Yicheng in the temple. If she succeeded, it would be great. Even if she failed, only her family would die.
If they failed, the people of the Tiger Tribe would run away after receiving the news, return to their original tribe or hide in a mountain valley, and Gong Yicheng would not know who was who.
Moreover, these 300,000 people were brought here under the cover of plague. We can't have a plague in the northern continent as well, right?
While Su Mo rejected the plan to win over the Northern Continent in her heart, she then heard Ming Feng's excited plan.
"What if we win over the mayor of North Beast City?"
