Schlei Territory is not big, with the religious district, administrative district, and commercial district as its core in the west of the city. It is a rare prosperous area in the territory, but there are still only 20,000 to 30,000 people living there.
The so-called "city-states" of this era are actually very different from the cities in ordinary people's consciousness.
In a feudal, agricultural-based society, most people were trapped in their own fields, and small towns and even small villages were the main form of society where 99% of the population gathered.
City-state? In fact, the small town of an ordinary lord is just a slightly larger "rural market".
Villagers, farmers, and townspeople will only go to the city to sell vegetables or buy some daily necessities when necessary. Moreover, the replacement rate of daily necessities is mostly calculated on an annual basis.
The core area of Schleling is probably slightly more crowded than the "town" in the common sense of visitors.
Prosperity? shop? How is it possible, except for the noble lord, who is not working hard to survive, how can he have spare money to go shopping and buy those things that are not available.
Only the great aristocratic territories and the royal capital have such luxurious things as commercial streets, shopping malls, and theaters. The commercial areas here can only be regarded as slightly larger farmers' and daily necessities markets at best.
Productivity limits social relationships and also limits people. In this rural territory, the things that can be accessed just by staying in the "town" are too limited.
"Group freely, use the Schley Territory as the border, explore freely, and gather locally within a month. If you have any information and need reinforcements, you can come back to me in advance for help."
On the third day after returning, Lu Ping'an dispatched most of the team members.
After all the calculations, the time we can stay here is only two or three months. Rather than staying with everyone, it is better to cast a wider net and always encounter some unexpected gains.
But at this time, there was a little problem
"By the way, no one really wants to team up with Xue En. To be honest, he is quite useful, especially when we are looking for a needle in a haystack. There is no problem in being an event trigger."
What he hopes for most is actually Xue En. Under the current limited time, he should be able to encounter something, good or bad, which is better than nothing happening.
But what they got was a uniform shake of the head.
No one is stupid. In this world that has come to an end and is doomsday everywhere, what will be the consequences of bringing a doom generator?
No matter how good the opportunity is, no matter how many resources you have, you should still be blessed to enjoy it.
"Forget it, senior brother Xue En, let's team up with me. Is that okay?"
"No." Even though he was disliked by everyone, he still looked calm, and his round face was still a little naive.
He is in good condition, inexplicably stronger, and his whole person has become extremely Buddhist. For some reason, there are always female compatriots hanging around recently, and they are trying to feed him with various snacks.
Well, actually, there are quite a few male compatriots who are peeking over. Monokuma, no matter how strong it is, its popularity is really high.
Even Lu Ping'an sometimes wants to masturbate twice. At this time, he will try hard to recall the scary black circles and dead fish eyes, and then he will masturbate the cat with both hands to satisfy his craving.
"What are you doing, meow!" Then, he was bitten by the cat.
As the only "European King" in the team, the reasons for his success have attracted a lot of speculation.
". Could it be that there are too many dark circles under the eyes, which triggers the phase?" Someone made a guess.
Needless to say, someone actually tried it and the result was still four legions.
These days, metaphysics is unreliable, and strong krypton is the only way out, and it starts with super randomness. Of course, due to limited funds, no one can afford to gamble at the moment, but those who hang out at the door every day and learn the way of the beast warrior, The number is quite a lot.
Well, back to the topic, Lu Pingan divided the teams into groups according to their compatibility. Priority was given to volunteers while taking into account their strengths.
The individual combat power is quite unbalanced. For example, if the mercenary group continues to form a group, they have no intention of bringing in new soldiers.
This is actually nothing, everyone has their own way of playing, and if you really take the recruits to high-risk areas, you will probably trick them to death.
After thinking for a while, Lu Ping'an communicated privately with the knights. Then there were a few more guard knights in the group of new recruits and weaker groups.
Some went out with them, and some came to help after receiving orders.
By the way, Lu Pingan has already done quite obvious, but the lord is still smiling, without any anger at all. He has learned about the destruction of the Red Sand Bandit and the Evil Bone Group, and has also confirmed the strength of Lu Pingan and his party, and has become Much friendlier.
Lu Ping'an didn't take the initiative to see him. He took the initiative to drag his old body over the next day. Along with him, there was a concubine and an illegitimate son. Lu Ping'an knew that these were probably the first to board the ship.
By the way, after this battle, there was actually an unexpected gain.
"Can you tell me why you betrayed me?"
The old lord Kuite smiled and asked the trembling Muyin man.
He is Lu Ping'an's trophy, to be precise, Zhixi and Maomao's trophy.
During that battle, as a "living compass", he was left in the storage room, guarded by several bandits from the Evil Bones Gang.
The two men who were responsible for stealing the house naturally had no reason to let them go. In the end, he was brought to the ground by Maomao. It was considered astonishing luck. Maybe it was God who favored this last herder.
Now, the old lord with a kind face smiled and asked why the outsider betrayed him, even though he actually didn't care at all.
"Smart creatures have the right to know the truth. This is their natural human right."
"Even if it will only bring panic? Will it only bring desperate mutual killing? Will it only bring about the early collapse of the entire society? It may even cause the original rescued people to lose the chance of being rescued?"
The old man who was judged as fatuous by the outside world was not stupid at all at this time.
He just asked calmly, saying that he didn't care about the other party's answer, nor the other party's betrayal.
So, is he asking this outsider? No, even Lu Ping'an, who was happily watching the show, also noticed that he was asking himself.
Perhaps, in the shadows, he was also very hesitant, hesitant, or even annoyed.
"That's a right! Everyone has the right to make a choice!"
"Afraid that it will only bring useless fear and destruction?"
"Of course! This is the right of every intelligent creature! Even if they are destined to die, they must know the date of their death!"
Muyinren repeatedly shouted "rights", which made the old man shake his head first, and then smiled.
This is a chicken-and-duck talk. They were not on the same page from the beginning. When the three views that form the basis of ideology, morality, and law are all different, naturally they cannot talk together at all, not to mention that there is no answer to the question itself.
"Your Highness Lu, I am making you laugh, but I am still a little naive." The old man was still calm.
Lu Ping'an smiled and said nothing.
Perhaps, in Lu Ping'an's malicious speculation, this person just used this method to explain his "inaction" and slightly increase the favorability of outsiders.
But in a sense, he did do it. At least Miss Xia Qin behind Lu Ping'an looked better.
Bringing a companion who is so easy to get into is a bad thing in a sense. Your own style and attitude can easily be leaked. But from another perspective, a team that favors "orderly and good" is more likely to gain the support of local people. People's trust.
At least, judging from the behavior along the way, the lord was very satisfied with Lu Ping'an and his party, and tried to invest more.
