Space-time SWAT

There are 64 safe zones around each of the five major cities, and the five top nobles feel that they can acquiesce that this is their territory.They no longer think about the other half of the safe zone, which can be left to the noble families below the first-class to compete for and manage it.The patriarchs or elders of the first-class nobles present here also thought the same way, looking at the map and constantly calculating secretly.

Du Xiao pretended not to be aware of their thoughts, and continued to introduce, "I counted the population of the empire on the register plus the sporadic population not on the register, and there are a total of more than 690 people. On the basis of 700 million people, Each safety zone has nearly 12 people. In addition to rural and small town residents, homeless people, and ethnic minority tribes, the five major cities have a total of 4208 million people, of which Pancheng has more than 88 million and Dongcheng has more than 94. , there are more than 75 in the South City, 68 in the West City, and 3 in the North City. These people can enter the safe zone or not, it is all voluntary, but the points will only come from various matters such as the security and construction of the safe zone. There are no people who enjoy life outside. I will set the population base of the safe zone at 3, which means that the minimum number of residents will be 50, and the maximum number will not exceed [-]."

With a land of 1000 million square kilometers, there are not even [-] million people. It can be seen that the population of this world is withered, so instead of wholeheartedly developing the people's livelihood and economy, the aristocratic families, civil and military ministers compete for power, enslave civilians, and take people into slavery. It's all, without realizing that if this continues, it will be a crisis of genocide.

When Du Xiao figured out the situation here, he didn't have any hope for them at all. He only planned to sit in a high position, protect the civilians first, and then use points to exchange for various resources to urge everyone to work hard and be positive.After the natural disaster comes, find out the cause of the disaster while investing in the calendar, and then cut off the source.Finally, guide this ancient world, which is different inside and out but is actually one, back to the original universe.In this case, their task should be considered relatively satisfactory.

After introducing the situation, he emphasized, "If the aristocratic family has enough manpower, they can choose some safe areas and develop on the basis of my rules. My basic requirement is that each safe area must increase its strength in an orderly manner. , Only in this way can a balance be achieved between the various safe zones, thus becoming a stable formation. You can think about it yourself, and make a choice after the safe zone is built."

Nan Gongtang and the others felt that his request was not too much, and they also allowed a period of time for them to think about it comprehensively, so everyone was not in a hurry to make a decision immediately, but they all agreed with smiles, and praised Du Xiao Xiao.

The group chatted for a while, and confirmed that Du Xiao was not interested in state affairs, let alone their family affairs, but that no more bullying and mutilation of the royal blood was allowed to happen, so they were relieved.They proposed to hold a banquet for Du Xiao, but he refused, saying that there are many things to do and no time to eat, drink and have fun.They just gave up and left happily.

After they all left, Du Xiao took out a bottle of elixir and handed it to Nan Gongtang who returned after seeing off the guests, "I know about the empress's condition. Just take one pill of this kind of elixir, and the empress will be cured. I Seeing that both you and your son have hidden wounds on their bodies, it is very detrimental to the improvement of the realm, you can take one pill, and the illness will go away, and you will be able to recover to the best state soon." There are five extremely high-grade low-level recovery pills in the jade bottle, It is suitable for middle and low-level monks or high-level warriors like them.

Low-level elixir is nothing, but top-quality medicine is rare. Du Xiao also saw that the first time they met after they came to this world was the Nangong family, and they were the most kind-hearted among the five major families, and they were also the most kind to the Pan royal family. Maintenance, that's why I gave them five pills for free.As for whether they will have doubts, take it or not, it's up to them, Du Xiao doesn't care at all.

No matter what Nan Gongtang thought in his heart, he could get a bottle of precious medicine pill, his face glowed with joy, and he thanked him repeatedly.

Du Xiao waved his hand, "In the next period of time, I will refine the formation stone. If there is nothing important, please don't bother me."

"Okay, okay." Nan Gongtang quickly agreed, "If your lord needs anything, feel free to send someone to tell this old man."

"Well, thank you." Du Xiao nodded and returned to his guest courtyard.

Recently, during Admiralty's survey, the entire territory of this world was clarified, including topography, animals and plants, underground dragon veins, land veins, water veins and mineral veins, etc., as well as the distribution of human races, all marked on the three-dimensional map.After careful study, Du Xiao dispatched teams of powerful robots and eloquent mid-level and low-level monks to gather minority tribes or scattered people in the desert, or recruit talents from various fields in various villages and towns. It is a potential person who is underappreciated or has a bad background or a bad situation, regardless of gender or age.

In fact, there are many talents in his space world, but they are not citizens of this world, so they can't do it for them.They can help fight, manage, and teach, but a lot of things still need to be done by people in this world.The most urgent task at the moment is to strive to improve the quality of the people of this world in order to face the coming powerful enemy.These are inseparable from talents, and they are talents who listen to Du Xiao, work hard, work hard, do not care about self-interest, and have talents who protect the beliefs of the human race.This requires Du Xiao to cultivate.

After sending the team out, he relaxed and concentrated on refining the formation stone in the room.Yan Li was fascinated by the five elements sealing the sky formation, Du Xiao didn't want to interrupt him, lest he ruin his chance.Du Xiao is still able to refine the basic formation stones for growth. As long as there are materials, it is not difficult.

Two thousand miles further west from the west city, there is a small town called Galagato.It looks very dilapidated, but the walls are very high and thick, and iron juice is poured on it, so it is very strong.The buildings in the city are mottled, mainly gray and black.The stone road is cracked and skewed, uneven.The air was thick with smoke and dust, and the haze filled the air.Most people in the city wear coarse cloth with dull colors, which is resistant to dirt and wear.

Because there are rich mineral deposits around, the mined ore can be used to smelt and cast weapons and some daily necessities, so this small city was destroyed in previous natural disasters, and it will be rebuilt after the disaster passes.There are 10 permanent residents in the city, of which [-]% are prospecting teams, miners and their families, another [-]% are various foundry craftsmen and clansmen, and [-]% open various shops here to earn money from other people. money.

Hani is a member of the Fengni tribe. He is good at making wine with various materials. He opened a tavern in the city more than ten years ago and his business has been booming.There are prospectors, miners and foundries in the city who like to come to him for a drink in the evening, especially in the cold winter.If anyone finds a new mine and sells it successfully, making a fortune, he will invite everyone to drink and celebrate here.Haney has extraordinary skills, and every year he has to clean up a group of gangsters who come to make trouble.He also pays protection fees, and has a good relationship with the gangsters who run the area.He also sent a batch of good wine to the City Lord's Mansion every year, and paid a lot of taxes, so he was also blessed by the City Lord's Mansion, and his business was very stable.

That night, Aragbari of the Deyanano tribe walked into the Fengni tavern.In the language of their tribe, Deyanano means burning lamp.Although their tribe is small, they do not distinguish between men, women and children. They all have special talents in fire control, ore identification and smelting.After the last natural disaster, more than half of their clan members died, leaving dozens of young and middle-aged men. Because they can smelt ore, they finally managed to hide in the west city by relying on their craftsmanship and survived.Also because of their talents, Erxuan, a first-class nobleman in Nancheng, wanted to take them as slaves, but they were unwilling to lose their freedom and dignity, so the patriarch took them away quickly and moved to the west, where they settled in the famous mining city of Galagato.When they got here, there were only 47 members of their clan left, half of them were sick, and it was all thanks to Aragabari who led a few young and middle-aged people of the clan to form a prospecting team to earn money to feed the clan members and heal them.

Aragbari, who has a straightforward personality, has also learned to be tactful in a difficult life, and has a certain friendship with Hani.He walked into the tavern, sat down at the bar, leaned over and said in a low voice, "Brother Haney, the friends you took me to make last time seemed to be the big brothers, the second brother and the third brother of the gang. I have a better understanding of style and rules.”

Haney shook his head, "Who told you that I was in the mob gang?"

Aragbar shrugged, "No one said it, I guessed it."

After being silent for a while, Haney said: "I have a good relationship with some legal gangs registered in the City Lord's Mansion. They can be regarded as friends, but I don't mix, so I don't know their internal rules. In Galagato, Although the violent group is a legal organization, the management and investigation of them by the city lord's mansion are becoming more and more strict. So, don't get too close to them. Of course, they don't dare to do things that are too outrageous, and they don't want to annoy them City Lord's Mansion."

"I understand." Aragbari nodded, picked up the bar on the bar, and took a big gulp of soju.

Although he stopped asking, he was even more puzzled.Why does Heicang always collect usury repayments from the hostesses in Haney's tavern?Why not somewhere else?Since Honey didn't mix with gangsters, why didn't he refuse the other party's request?He is a serious tavern business, and he is under the protection of the city lord's mansion, so he should be able to refuse.

Although he had never seen Haney fight with his own eyes, Aragbari could feel that Haney was at least at the same level as himself, or even higher.It seems that Haney is also more afraid of the Black Canghui, presumably the gold medal fighters in that violent group are not much inferior to him.

How to do?

The situation got a little more serious.Once the other party is determined to cut down the cash cow and set an example for other debtors, the Wu Ren sisters may not be able to hide for a few days.

It was still dark now, and there were not many customers in the tavern.Seeing his upset look, Haney asked casually, "What's the matter? What happened?"

Aragbari scratched his head, and said with a simple and honest smile: "That Urentuya, do you still remember?"

Haney thought for a while, "Are you the same as her sister, the one who accompanied the wine girl?"

"Yes." Aragbari nodded, "Urenna is also drinking with your guests here."

"Oh." Haney shook his head slightly, "There are too many women drinking with me here, maybe I can remember the people I meet, but I don't know the names."

Life is hard, and a woman's life is even harder.It is too dangerous to go out to prospect for mines, and it is not only dangerous but also tiring to go into the mountains to mine. Women rarely take that dead end unless they have to.Aunts and sister-in-laws can sew, mend, wash and wash for the miners, earn some meager copper coins, and supplement their living expenses. Some pretty girls, daughters-in-law and even middle-aged mature women will find another way out, or go to the tavern to accompany them. Or go to the brothel to pick up customers, or stand outside on the street as a wandering warbler.Among them, the girls who accompany the wine are of the highest grade, young and beautiful, and can speak well. As long as they coax the guests to drink, the boss will give them commissions, and they don't have to sell themselves.The hostess is free, and she doesn't need wages, she only earns a commission, so as long as she doesn't take the initiative to cause trouble, any tavern welcomes her.If it is only done in one tavern and can bring more income to the tavern, the tavern owner will take the initiative to protect some of them and prevent gangsters from messing with them.As long as a good hostess is sensible, she can live a good life, but drinking a lot of alcohol every night will eventually hurt her health. Either she becomes addicted to alcohol and cannot extricate herself, or she vomits blood after drinking and dies of a serious illness.But in comparison, the days of accompanying wine girls are considered good. There are many women who have entered the industry one after another, and there will always be beautiful women in taverns.

Wurentuya and Wurenna sisters are both members of the Wuren tribe.Wuren means flower. People in this tribe are not only handsome and beautiful, like flowers, but also have good skills in cultivating flowers and fruit trees.But in an increasingly desertified world, their talents are becoming less and less useful.Both men and women in the clan are relatively weak, unable to deal with the ferocious sand beasts outside, so they can only hide in the city and barely survive by drinking with them.

Wu Rentuya and Wu Renna's father fell ill half a year ago, and they need to spend a lot of money to support them.It stands to reason that such patients are the burden of the tribe, and they will hardly be treated.With this money, it is better to buy more food to raise children, that is the future of the tribe.But the Wuren sisters were unwilling to give up. After spending all their savings, they went to borrow usury.As a result, the interest was compounded, and the debts owed more and more. Relying on the two sisters to drink with each other every day, they couldn't even pay back the interest.

Two months ago, Wu Rentuya met Aragbari when she was drinking with her, and they gradually developed a good impression of each other. Although they haven't made it clear yet, they have a certain understanding.Wu Rentuya knew that Aragbari's tribe was also in a difficult situation, so he didn't tell him about the usury. Aragabari didn't know the details until the people from the Heicang Society came to the tavern to persecute their sisters.

Wu Rentuya and U Renna were unwilling to pick up the guests, and hid with the help of Aragbari.But this is not the way, Heicang will know where the courtyard where their clansmen live together, and if they can't find them again, they will persecute their clansmen.
