Chapter 20: Expanding the Territory
"The brothers who were captured and taken to Black Wind Village are all very capable. Hahaha, the way this village recruits people is also unique. They actually forcefully capture people to go up the mountain to become bandits. Take care, fellow bandit brothers."
…
"Don't laugh at them. They are much luckier than us, right? I am still struggling to earn money so that I can join the martial arts school in the county."
…
"Aren't small forces like Black Wind Village destined to be eliminated by those of us who are destined to become young heroes in the future? How could they even know how to recruit players for development?"
…
"That's not true. We also have a bandit den outside the city. We encountered those bandits today and killed them all, but they were not recruited into the stronghold."
…
"Maybe it's because of the different regions. Bandits in the world are not all the same family. But at present, it seems that the Black Wind Village in Mengyin County in Huicheng may be a relatively easy force to join. It can help you get in touch with the underworld forces and learn martial arts more quickly."
…
"It's just a small trash force. Even if I want to join a sect, I will join a famous sect. What is Black Wind Village?"
…
"The guy upstairs named Sanlangjian, I've seen your name in the cracks of the Central Plains. Don't let me see you in the martial arts world. Be careful of the cracks on your body."
“…”
On the Jianghu forum, many players were discussing and arguing about the Black Wind Village.
Some people think that joining Black Wind Village is a very good choice in the early stage. You can use Black Wind Village as a springboard to accumulate strength and cultivation, and then make other choices after becoming strong.
Some people are more arrogant and think that Black Wind Village is a rubbish force and not worth joining.
At this time, Zhongyuan Miaorenfeng and others who joined the Black Wind Village became famous and came into the sight of many players, and even attracted the attention of players in some villages and towns around Mengyin County.
Jiang Dali was also very satisfied when he saw this.
The reputation of Black Wind Village has now been initially established, which is also the first step in his plan.
The next step is to expand the influence and compete with official forces and even major famous sects in the world of martial arts for these fresh blood of players.
At the same time, we need to expand the territory and develop some resource points.
This requires continued reliance on the power of players.
It was almost late at night.
Players such as Zhongyuan Miaorenfeng have completed the task of familiarizing themselves with the village and came to Jiang Dali's courtyard to deliver the task.
A group of players looked at Jiang Dali who walked out of the courtyard with bold curiosity.
Looking at Jiang Dali's name, which was purple-green and represented danger, they were all nervous and had unrealistic fantasies.
If this big boss is killed, how many cultivation points and potential points will be obtained?
If I become powerful in the future, I will definitely take over this village leader's position, etc.
Jiang Dali was once a player himself. Just by looking at the looks in these people's eyes, he knew what they were thinking. He chuckled in his heart but maintained a stern and dignified expression.
"You guys have performed well. Now that you are familiar with the situation in the village, let's develop the village together from tomorrow and help it recruit more young and strong people with aspirations."
"Another mission?"
The players were stunned for a moment, then delighted, as they all received a new task prompt: "Recruiting Staff".
"I didn't expect that our village would continue to recruit people? What are they planning to do? Are they preparing for an uprising?"
…
"Haha, this mission came too quickly and was too easy. As long as I recruit one person, I will get 10 points of cultivation and potential points as a reward. If I recruit five, I can get 50 contribution points."
…
"Who said that our Black Wind Village has no future? I think Black Wind Village is the strongest force in the early stage."
Watching a group of players accept the task and leave happily.
Jiang Dali quietly opened the Jianghu Forum.
Sure enough, he saw that players such as Zhongyuan Miaorenfeng had already released the news that Black Wind Village was recruiting people, and at the same time, they also announced the benefits currently obtained in Black Wind Village - mission advantages.
The world of Zongwu is not like an ordinary game.
This world is more realistic, so players need to discover various tasks on their own.
He is almost the only one at this stage who proactively issues tasks to players to guide them and help them become stronger.
Therefore, relying on the advantages of the mission and the low threshold, as well as the publicity from the players, Jiang Dali is confident that he can quickly attract players from some surrounding cities, strengthen the Black Wind Village, and also strengthen himself.
After players complete the tasks he issued, he will also gain a small amount of cultivation points and potential points.
Just now, the players completed the task.
Jiang Dali has already obtained 12 cultivation points and potential points.
“There are too few players at the moment. In addition to issuing tasks to them, I can get some potential points and cultivation points, and I can also teach them martial arts.
When they need to improve their martial arts, they need to spend their potential points and cultivation points from me, which is also a way to become stronger."
Jiang Dali was thinking in his mind and decided not to use up his potential points to improve his martial arts for the time being.
The power of martial arts will only increase after breaking through the realm.
Simply improving the progress will not bring about any substantial changes.
At present, he has only mastered the "Tiger Evil Golden Ring Knife" martial art that is on the verge of a breakthrough. He is about to break through to the 4th level of proficiency, but he still needs to consume at least 40 potential points.
In addition to consuming potential points, martial arts can also be improved slowly through daily practice or actual combat with others.
…
time flies.
In the blink of an eye, it was noon of the next day.
Jiang Dali was enjoying lunch when he received good news from the players.
Several more people were successfully recruited and were waiting in the small field outside the village.
The second in command, Xiong Ba, was puzzled and said, "Brother, the manpower in our village should be enough now. We don't have any big situations Why are you recruiting so many people?
These new guys all look delicate and weak, and don’t have much ability. More people means more mouths to feed, but other than being able to eat, it seems like there is no other use for them.”
Jiang Dali laughed and pointed at the food and wine on the table, "I don't just want to eat the food and wine on this table. You are right. We don't have any big occasions to deal with in Black Wind Village on weekdays. What does this mean?
This means that there is not enough oil and water in our area.
The world is so big, and our Mengyin County is so small, so the Black Wind Village is even more insignificant.
I heard that Chongfeng Village and Tuoshui Village in the neighboring counties are both developing very well, one has a mineral vein and the other has a medicine mountain.
I want to have a piece of the meat in their bowls too!"
Xiong Ba was stunned, "Brother, you, you still want to take over Chongfeng Village and Tuoshui Village?
The Ghost Blade Ji Ming from Tuoshui Village and the Wu girls from Chongfeng Village are not people you can easily mess with."
Jiang Dali smiled and took a sip of tea, "Do you think I'm someone you can easily mess with?"
Xiong Ba was speechless and just laughed dryly twice.
I forgot that the man in front of me is also a ruthless person who is not easy to mess with.
Jiang Dali said calmly, "The little brother who was stalking on the official road has already discovered the people from Longmen Escort Agency. This time we will deal with Du Dajin first and make a name for ourselves."
"Du Dajin has arrived? How come so soon?"
Xiong Ba's whole body tensed up, feeling a little nervous, but when he saw Jiang Dali's strong and sturdy figure, he inexplicably felt a sense of security and confidence.
"Forget it. Seeing how calm Brother Dali is, I think he has a plan to repel the enemy..."
Jiang Dali waved his hand and ordered his attendants, "Bring those new people here."
