Chen Jia thought she had gotten up early. After she prepared the food and opened the gate to the territory, she found that the outskirts of the territory were scattered.

There were a lot of wood and stones piled up.

Hannah, who was guarding the supplies, saw the lord coming out, and her eyes lit up, "Lord, we have prepared the supplies!"

Not only did they prepare today's supplies, they also made up for the supplies that were owed yesterday.

This group of villagers is more honest!

Chen Jia nodded, collected the supplies, and exchanged them for today's food.

The portion of food prepared by Chen Jia was quite large. People with small appetites could divide it into three portions, and people with big appetites could fill their stomachs in one go.

"Thank you, Lord!" Hannah stepped back quickly, holding a bowl of shredded chicken porridge. The rich aroma of the porridge wafted around her nose, and she licked her lips.

"Hannah, why are you running so fast?" Ike gulped down a bowl of porridge, his stomach feeling warm. He scratched his head, not understanding why his wife ran away so fast. "My Lord is the kindest Lord I have ever seen..."

"Hush, Ike!" Hannah whispered, pulling at her husband's tattered sleeves. "We have been in exile for a long time and haven't washed or dressed. We are already unfit to be seen by others! I dare not even approach the Lord!"

If you get closer, you can smell the rich fragrance wafting from the lords, and how bad they smell!

Ike's hand on his stomach froze, and he put it down awkwardly, "Ah, I forgot..."

How could common people like them have the chance to meet the high and mighty lord, let alone know any etiquette.

If Hannah hadn't sighed out of shame, Ike would not have had the chance to experience the embarrassment of the moment.

Ike stuffed the bowl into Hannah's arms and called Erhu to run to the forest, "Erhu, are you full? Let's go collect supplies!"

Erhu wiped his mouth roughly and followed, "Let's go, now!"

Many villagers who had eaten their fill hurried to follow. These two men were the strong men in their village. They did not ask for the same amount of supplies as them, but just wanted everyone to be safer together.

Ike and Erhu worked tirelessly and had already cut down enough wood for a unit before it got dark.

Ike and Erhu both had to collect supplies for two people. If they were just collecting for themselves, they wouldn't have to work until dark.

Ike and Erhu returned to the territory carrying a lot of supplies. Chen Jia came out just in time and gave two large buckets of food with a wave of his hand.

Today, it is a big bucket of multi-grain rice and a big bucket of braised chicken to go with it. The braised chicken is stewed with enough potatoes, vermicelli, green peppers and other ingredients.

When the villagers saw that dinner was ready, they got up from the ground one after another, brushed off the dust on their bodies, and lined up in front of a well to wash their hands one by one.

The well was built by Chen Jia in the morning using 50 units of wood and 20 units of stone. It was placed on the left side of the territory gate to make it convenient for the villagers to wash their hands before meals, which is more hygienic.

The villagers washed their hands one by one, and then lined up to wait for their meals. They smelled the aroma of food in the air, and their stomachs were rumbling.

Oh, the days of waiting for meals are so hard!

Ike was the last one to finish his meal. He didn't start eating right away, but walked forward cautiously. "Dear Lord, I want to know if your territory needs to expand its population?"

Unlike other territories, all affairs of this territory are handled personally by the lord in front of him. Ike boldly speculated: Perhaps, this emerging territory is willing to accept them?

Chen Jia gave him an unfathomable look, and as Ike's heart was beating fast, he slowly nodded and said, "Yes."

Ike's heart skipped a beat, and he was extremely excited. He suppressed his restless heart and asked carefully: "My Lord, what are the conditions for becoming your subject?"

It was a good question. Chen Jia discussed it with San San and proposed conditions. "As you can see, this is a newly established territory. I am the owner of this territory - Lu Jia Alan. If you want to become a citizen of this territory, the conditions are very simple. You only need to pay 50 units of wood or 50 units of stone to become a citizen of Alan's territory."

As the territory develops in the future, it will no longer be such a simple condition to become a citizen!

Ike understood the Lord's implication, and he quickly expressed his opinion, "Lord, my wife and I are willing to become a member of the Alan Territory. Once we have collected all the supplies, we will come and apply!"

He can finish 50 units of wood in one day.

Taking into account the couple's food problem, if they save a little, they can become legal subjects in two days at most!

This is really great!

Ike excitedly shared the good news with the villagers waiting nearby. Erhu was the first to respond, "That's great! These days of being homeless can finally come to an end!"

"Yeah, that's great!"

"Although the territory is smaller, the lord doesn't mind us being refugees!"

"With good construction, our territory can also grow stronger!"

"If it weren't so dangerous at night, I would go collect materials right now!"

"Well, the sooner I move in, the more at ease I'll feel!"

……

The villagers gathered around the fire, talking in a flurry.

"Go to sleep quickly and stay alert. I want to be the first leader!" Erhu lay down and closed his eyes. His younger brother Erniu went to bed early because he was not in good spirits.

"That's not necessarily true..." Ike muttered and quickly lay down. Maybe he and his wife would be the first ones!

This strange desire to win...

Hannah shook her head and laughed, then she lay down beside her husband and closed her eyes to rest.

It was dark at night, and the villagers on the outskirts of the territory rested by the fire, cherishing the beautiful hope of entering the territory as soon as possible.

Chen Jia used the materials collected by the villagers to build eight more identical wooden houses, placing them side by side with the previous two wooden houses.

In order to encourage the villagers to work hard after entering the territory, the remaining supplies were used to build a grocery store.

The grocery store has a wide range of products, including seeds, tools, food, clothes, quilts, pillows, etc.

It can be said that as long as the leaders are diligent, their lives will become more and more hopeful!

The Erhu brothers and the Ike couple were the first group of people to apply to become citizens of the territory. They brought the necessary conditions to become citizens, registered their personal information in front of the lord, and obtained the exclusive identity certificates for citizens of the Alan territory.

The proof of identity is a small square green card. On the front is the resident's personal information, including a one-inch headshot, name, gender, date of birth, and a long string of numbers making up the ID number; on the back is the emblem of the Alan Territory - the thorny rose, and below the emblem is written in simplified Chinese: Alan City Resident Identity Card.

Although I couldn't understand the words above, I still recognized my own profile picture.

"That's great, Hannah!" Axel held the ID card in his hand, hugged his wife tightly, and said with tears in his eyes, "We are finally subjects of the state!"

"Yeah, it's not easy—" Hannah sighed. She thought the village was destroyed and they could only live one day at a time, but she didn't expect that she and her husband would have such a day.

that is really good!
