Chapter 54: Warehouse Theft
The housekeeper fairy Petra was very panicked!
Something big happened!
The lord trusted me so much that he pardoned me and appointed me as the acting lord of the territory, but I didn’t even notice that my warehouse was stolen.
Petra anxiously paced in the middle of the refugee camp, biting her fingers in her mouth and biting off another nail.
"Butler! Butler!" A big goblin came running over breathlessly with his short legs.
"How is it? Have you found it?" Petra leaned over and asked hurriedly.
"Sir! Except, huh, except for the garden that the lord forbids people to approach, we have searched everywhere else! There is no clue."
"Impossible! Didn't you guys look for it carefully? I'll take you to look for it again."
Just as Petra was about to leave, the voice of the great goblin guard suddenly came from the door: "Master Qi Ge is back!"
Petra was startled and felt a cold sweat break out on her body.
In the Mage Tower, if something is lost in the Mage Tower under the management of the Butler Fairy, the Butler Fairy will be executed.
Even if you meet a kind wizard, you will inevitably be beaten up.
Should we keep it a secret? Just say that it was eaten by the big goblins. I don't think Master Qige will investigate it carefully.
Petra blinked and suddenly remembered what Qi Ge said when he appointed her as deputy lord.
"I trust you, just as you trust me!"
Petra punched her stomach hard.
He saw seven doves riding on a griffin slowly descending in the sky, and put a human down. Then the griffin swooped forward and landed on the ground. He gritted his teeth and rushed forward to meet the griffin.
Qi Ge jumped down from the griffin and saw Petra coming towards him. Before he could say anything, Petra half-knelt on the ground.
" Petra ? What's wrong?"
"My Lord, 126 units of food were lost from the territory's warehouse last night. I tried my best to find it, but I didn't find any clues. Please punish me, my Lord."
"Oh? The food is lost? Don't worry, look for it first."
Petra raised her head cautiously: "Lord, you won't punish me?"
"Of course he will be punished! You are the acting lord, and the warehouse is under your supervision. If there is a problem in the warehouse and you can't find the cause, you must be punished."
"But not now. Look for it now. If you find the food, I'll fine you two days' wages . If you don't find it, I'll fine you half the value of the food."
Petra was a little dumbfounded: "These are the penalties?"
Qi Ge frowned and said, "Do you think it's too heavy? Petra, you have to know that although I think highly of you, you are a role model for the fairies.
If I can't reward and punish you clearly, how can the goblins obey me?
If you find any food, you will be fined two days' salary as a punishment.
If we can't find food, as the acting lord I appointed, you should bear half the responsibility and I should bear half the responsibility. It's not too much to fine you half the value of the food, right?
You have to know that although this is my territory, everything that enters the warehouse becomes the public property of the territory.
If there is an unexpected shortfall, we need to make up for it together.”
Petra asked in surprise, "I don't think it's too heavy. I think it's too light.
Lord, you will not deprive me of my position as acting lord? You will not beat me? You will not drive me out of the territory?"
What I mean is, how could I be willing to give up on you, a Tier 4 logistics NPC who has embarked on the path of heroism?
"Of course not! Don't talk about this in the future. You and the big goblin have come to my territory, so you are my subjects. No one can beat or scold you or drive you out of the territory, including myself."
"My Lord! You are indeed the best lord I have ever met! I even thought about hiding the fact from you that I am not a qualified housekeeper fairy." Petra hugged Qi Ge's thigh.
Qi Ge quickly pulled him up and said, “How many times have I told you that you are a role model for the fairies, you must be steady!
If the mistake in the territory makes you want to hide it, it is not your problem, but my problem. This shows that my reward and punishment method is not reasonable.
Next time, if you have anything to say, just tell me.”
Petra nodded and said, "Yes, Lord! I understand!"
System prompt: Petra's favorability with you has reached 120 (going through fire and water). Petra's loyalty has reached die-hard loyalty (never betraying you, she will stand by you even if you are against the whole world)
Because of your fair treatment, the great fairies in the territory have become more loyal to you.
Oh? Petra's favorability has exceeded 100. Only when an NPC becomes a player's subordinate can the favorability exceed 100.
This means that this NPC will follow you wholeheartedly from now on, and will not rebel even if you ask him to fight against his own people.
"Petra, what food has been lost in the territory?"
"My lord, this." Petra glanced at Li Xiaobai.
Qi Ge said, "You can talk as much as you want. We are one family. He is my brother."
Li Xiaobai smiled at Petra.
Petra nodded and said, "My Lord, a total of 32 units of honey, 15 units of fruit, 66 special mushrooms, and 84 ordinary mushrooms were lost."
Wait a minute, this configuration.
Qi Ge's eyes became sharp. Wasn't the criminal very obvious?
Good! You, a fair-skinned and beautiful rank 9 mythical soldier, actually steal food!
The goddess of luck has lost all her charm because of you!
Who said before that they have no interest in ordinary food?
I should have recorded it!
Qi Ge said, "No need to look for it, I know who the criminal is. Petra, your punishment is cancelled. This is not a problem you can handle. I will solve it."
"Forget about that for now and report what happened last night."
"Okay, lord. After you left, the construction of the fairy waterwheel attracted a group of gargoyles to attack the city. Fortunately, the number was not large, but 6 forest centaurs were still killed."
Currently, the Fairy Waterwheel has started production and the stockpiled gold coins has reached 440.
440 gold coins a night? Is it that efficient?
Qi Ge quickly opened the territory building panel to check the properties of the fairy waterwheel.
Fairy Waterwheel
A maximum of 200 fairies are allowed to produce gold coins together.
There are currently 60 goblins and 10 goblin guards working.
Each goblin can produce 5 gold coins per day.
The Big Goblin Guard can produce 5 gold coins per day.
Every 10 goblin guards can get 1 random level 1-2 resource every day.
(Since the waterwheel had just been built, the fairies were in a state of excitement and worked non-stop, which greatly improved production efficiency.)
The new waterwheel is built and the goblins are in high spirits.
Working non-stop for one night, I earned 440 gold coins. Wouldn't that mean thousands of gold coins a day?
It’s almost a gold mine!
Then can I keep dismantling and rebuilding the water wheels to keep the goblins efficient?
Haha, just kidding, there are not so many waterwheel drawings.
Today is the seventh day of the game, and at 0:00 tonight, a new week will begin.
At this time, all military buildings will refresh soldiers.
Therefore, the military buildings should be built during the day so that two weeks' output can be obtained at the same time tomorrow.
Qi Ge looked at the pile of construction drawings of Centaur troops in his backpack and fell into deep thought. What should he build first?
