"Well... then just go ahead and get busy yourself, get the dormitory built."
Ning Zheng felt like there was something stuck in his throat that he couldn't get out, and finally sighed.
People spend money to visit, and he had already taken money and lost 2 Qi Fortune Value, so how could he make it difficult for his guests?
Whatever they do, he could just observe secretly.
"Brothers! Family! Time to take on the newbie tasks!"
After being acknowledged, Jiucai Rong, like a construction site boss, excitedly directed everyone to start working.
And he himself took a big wooden board and set up a [Task Board] at the entrance of the villa, designing a batch of tasks with copper coin salary rewards based on various work difficulties.
It's clear he's quite experienced in organization.
Then the work began.
Luckily, it was overcast weather, so there wasn't much sun. Those responsible for recutting wood, weaving iron strips into a mesh, rebuilding walls...
A hundred people bustling around constructing dormitories, orderly and in full swing.
However, they were also chatting while working.
They exchanged a few words and suddenly felt that the design of this dormitory was simply out of this world, a real genius.
Comparable to the Minister of the Ministry of Justice!
Not to mention comfort, but they recognized the practical value.
However, some people strongly demanded single rooms, after all, a bare iron mesh structure just felt like a row of meat chickens on a production line, being fed and washed. Where was the dignity?
And they were scolded on the spot.
Jiucai Rong: "Single room, what single room? Never played a game before? We are poor during the early period, got no money, so we live in big dorms. When we make money later, you can live however you want; you don't even have to live here. This big baby can choose to wear your diapers before logging off."
His attack power was surprisingly strong,
"If you're a tycoon, it's no problem to have players around help you earn gold to get a luxury room. If you have money, you get a private room; no money, big dormitory."
The people present continued working silently.
Sure, it's easy for you to stand there and talk, your quarters are very luxurious.
At this point inside the villa, once this small episode passed, everyone got back to hustling, starting to construct the dormitory.
The crowd began doing [tasks], after all, nobody wanted to fall behind during the early period.
Plus, with Jiucai Rong being the temporary officer strutting around, seemingly having enforcement rights, it would be ridiculous if he reported anyone to the old manager and got them locked up.
But in the fervent building process, new problems arose, occasionally encountering unexplained air drops.
"Come to think of it, why are there so many crows here, specifically targeting people?"
"I can't stand it, I need to weave a straw hat."
"There are so many bugs in this place, too itchy, reminds me of the hard days when school organized clearing weeds and opening lands."
"What did you think, true ancient times were like this, what sanitation do you expect?"
"Brothers, this is a crow spawn area, got to clear it! They probably drop loot, right?"
"What are you fighting? Clearly the crows' nests aren't inside the villa but in the forest map outside, we can't get there yet. Just forge weapons later and shoot with arrows, probably can eat crow meat."
...
Ning Zheng sat in the rocking chair leisurely, observing the craftsmen working in the distance, and silently took out a diary, the cover read "Local Evil Ghost Records."
This was where he documented the characteristics and abilities of the absurd monsters down the mountain, a labor of love.
At this moment, he opened a new section.
Under the new title, he wrote "Blacksmith Species Observation Diary," quietly penning a line of observations, as a scholar naturally had these habits.
The gentle breeze blew, the sunset at dusk.
It had already been six or seven hours long.
The bricks were glued together with this world's special mud glue, and bricks and stones were used to build a large dormitory again.
Although Money Child's strength was not insignificant, a natural construction laborer, the task was merely to repair the broken walls, but the iron mesh couldn't be completed in a day.
Jiucai Rong commanded from the side, speaking to Ning Zheng, "Sir, the speed today was a bit slow, mainly due to the iron mesh weaving. Once we're skilled, the pace will be faster, probably by tomorrow noon, we can barely move in."
"Having been busy for a while now, officer sir, could we discuss meals..."
They were all hungry now.
Doing such high-intensity labor, they were famished.
On the lounge chair, Ning Zheng nodded, "As for meals, resolve it on the spot."
"On the spot?" Jiucai Rong was dumbfounded, since he was already shocked by this game's hardcore style, he thought of some very unfavorable scenarios.
"The earth, metal you dig up, can all be eaten." Ning Zheng on the rocking chair, looked into the distance, without raising his head.
He indicated that Money Child indeed consumed these.
Very low maintenance, munching on mines, ores, typically living in groups near veins.
Money Child, calm and averse to activity, vegetarian, dislikes meat, prefers fruits, mineral soil.
Hearing this, Jiucai Rong was completely stunned.
Is he asking me to eat dirt?
Did I come to this game to eat dirt? Is our newbie character surviving by eating dirt?
Now, already looking like a sticky dirt-caked construction worker, he scooped up a clump of soil, and took a bite,
"Is this what we're supposed to eat...?"
The moment it went down, a meat floss-like texture exploded on his taste buds.
Soft and flavorful.
Silky like cream, grainy like dry foods.... mixed together, it was like eating sundae ice cream, indescribably delicious, his tongue almost got bitten off.
Delicious.
This was by no means dirt.
This was actually chocolate sundae that just looked like dirt.
"Candy house from fairy tales, the whole earth is a dessert... is this game playing these tricks?" Jiucai Rong's eyes sparkled, grabbing a small rock from the ground and taking a big bite.
Crunch.
Savory flavors exploded on his taste buds.
Incredibly delicious.
"Family, the food is here."
Jiucai Rong was teary-eyed, bending down to pick up a clump of mud, holding it high like an Olympic torch,
"This game was waiting for us here, what a huge Easter egg! Innovative gameplay outshines other similar games."
The crowd was stunned hearing this, they tried licking the soil, immediately opening a new world and, with shocked faces, began gulping it down.
"Oh my goodness, this is literally a candy house from a fairy tale."
The group was jumping with joy, shouting that it was time to eat, surrounding the pile of dirt dug up during construction to dine, like circling a giant cake.
"So cool."
"Who said this game was dark and hardcore realism, this is fairy-tale picturesque style."
"I've never eaten such delicious dirt in my whole life."
"This game is incredibly fun, don't have to lose weight, you can eat as much as you like here."
The crowd worked hard to digest their shock, continuously looking at their feet.
Each kind of ore and soil represented a new type of dessert.
The game planners sneakily made this place a dessert mountain, stunning everyone!
The ground was filled with cakes, chocolates, candies, a kingdom of delicious delicacies.
The style changed completely, this creativity was just too cool!
