Chapter 230
Tavern Opens, Recruiting Wandering Heroes_3 “””
Dahua hesitated a bit and said, “Lord… our daily food is already quite plentiful. This precious milk, please keep it for yourself…”
Others also advised Cao Xing.
However, Cao Xing smiled and said, “Rest assured, you won’t have this kind of milk every day.”
“This is a reward for your hard work.”
Hearing this, smiles appeared on the faces of all the subjects.
Then, they respectfully said in unison, “Thank you for your generosity, Lord!”
“May we sweat for the development of the territory until the last drop!”
Cao Xing nodded, “Alright, go back, and wait for dinner tonight.”
Everyone exchanged glances, their faces filled with excited smiles, and then they left with enthusiasm.
At this moment, Cao Xing glanced at the newcomer, Rach.
“Rach, come with me.”
Rach immediately straightened up and said, “Ye… yes, Lord!”
At this time, Cao Xing’s reputation was filled with esteem in Rach’s mind!
The two of them went to the tavern.
Looking at the clean facilities inside, Rach couldn’t help but feel a bit excited.
Because this would be the place where he would work in the future.
And a satisfied smile appeared on Cao Xing’s face as well.
Because with this, the tavern could start operating.
Cao Xing did not plan to use the tavern for business.
Instead, in the tavern, he could use the [Territory Recruitment Function].
Through this function, he could attract nearby refugees or other talents.
However, those refugees would still need to get Cao Xing’s approval to enter the territory.
At this moment, a system prompt appeared.
[Detected the appearance of a subject with basic bartending skills. Would you like to assign Rach Babu to work in the tavern?]
Cao Xing directly clicked ‘yes.’
[Assignment successful, the territory recruitment function is now open.]
[Territory Recruitment Function: Based on the Lord’s reputation value, recruitment information is released to refugees or rangers within fifty kilometers of the territory.]
[This function can be used once every three days. Subsequently, upgrading the tavern can expand the recruitment range and shorten cooling time.]
…
“Only fifty kilometers nearby?”
This range was a bit small, and Cao Xing wasn’t sure if he could recruit useful talents.
But no matter, he decided to give it a try.
Then he directly clicked on [Recruit].
The system prompt appeared.
[Recruitment information successfully released.]
Cao Xing nodded.
Next, he would wait patiently.
To see if any other refugees would come near his territory.
After arranging Rach, Cao Xing walked out of the tavern.
Then, he leisurely strolled around his territory.
Before long, he saw a pair of beautiful figures.
It was the Tree Spirit Clan sisters, Juliette and Nif.
Cao Xing approached them.
Juliette and Nif saw him and bowed together.
“Lord, may you remain healthy.”
The two exquisitely beautiful fair-skinned women standing together formed a unique landscape.
Cao Xing nodded and then handed over some magic plant seeds he had acquired today to Juliette.
The beautiful Juliette gently touched the seeds in her hand, and her gem-like eyes showed a look of surprise.
“Lord, are these the rare War Ancient Tree seeds and Spirit Breath Grass seeds?”
Cao Xing secretly nodded, confirming her as his botanical encyclopedia.
With just one glance, she could identify the origin of these seeds.
“Correct, Juliette. Are you confident in planting them?”
Juliette thought for a moment and shook her head. “Lord, these magic plants need to be planted in an area with abundant magic power or life force.”
“In our territory, there’s the Pale Tree seed, which gradually changes the soil’s ecology. The growth environment can be met.”
“It’s just… like the Mutated Thorn Vine, they all require Cold Spirit Water for irrigation…”
Hearing this, Cao Xing smiled and said, “Don’t worry. I’ve already solved the Cold Spirit Water problem. This time out, we found a pond of Cold Spirit Water with a very ample supply.”
“I kept your words in mind.”
Hearing the last part, Juliette’s breathtakingly beautiful face flushed slightly with shyness.
She gently nodded and softly said, “If… if there’s Cold Spirit Water, I can plant these seeds…”
“Very well, the War Ancient Tree and Spirit Breath Grass will be entrusted to you.”
Cao Xing nodded and said, “I believe that with you two talented sisters, my territory will soon be filled with all kinds of magic plants. I look forward to that day.”
Upon hearing this, Juliette and Nif exchanged glances and both saw the emotion in each other’s eyes.
It was the feeling of having their talent acknowledged.
Little Nifu raised her small fists and said excitedly, “Rest assured, Lord, my sister and I will definitely complete the tasks you’ve entrusted.”
Juliette also nodded and said, “You are a visionary Lord. Juliette is honored to live in your territory.”
Cao Xing nodded and suddenly seemed to remember something. “Oh, right, this is for you.”
With those words, he conjured two [Exquisite Pins] as if by magic.
These pins were a light golden color with a filigree gold spirit bird accessory, along with other pendants, looking especially beautiful.
These were naturally obtained from the Ascalon Funerary Artifact Bag.
Originally, they were to be sold later, but Cao Xing found these pins quite attractive and very suitable for them.
Each of the sisters held one pin, and the joy on their faces was almost unmistakable.
Juliette slightly bowed and said, “Thank you for your gift, esteemed Lord.”
Nif also spoke with emotion, saying, “Lord, you are so good to us!”
[You gifted a subject with Nif’s favored gift, loyalty has increased. Current loyalty: 96.]
[You gifted a subject with Juliette’s favored gift, loyalty has increased. Current loyalty: 93.]
