Today's afternoon tea was exceptionally refreshing. Just one sip made me forget about the unpleasant incident of playing the nostalgic version of League of Legends just now.
Sure enough, penny for penny, this green tea is better than the previous cheap tea and there is no comparison.
Feeling refreshed, Eugene picked up the letter that the owl had just thrown to him.
At first I thought it was for him to go to Hogwarts, but then I thought about it, we don’t seem to have such a thing in the underground world...
I've been obsessed with surfing the Internet recently.
Opening the letter gracefully, Eugene nodded, raised his eyebrows slightly, and then murmured, "So fast? Not bad."
This letter was sent by Rocky.
It has been several days since I last came here for so-called activities.
In those few days, relying on Rocky's identity as a mysterious businessman, he used some junk gadgets to squeeze out most of the players' gold coins.
Especially the pioneer badge, a lot of it was sold, which is unexpected.
Before Rocky left, Eugene asked him to help recruit a blacksmith to his territory.
The blacksmith's role in his own territory was minimal, and Eugene's main purpose in applying for him was for the group of "hard workers".
While studying online, Eugene discovered that the enhancement of equipment consumes the most gold coins.
And the lower the success rate of strengthening, the more people will be competing to strengthen it.
This behavior is completely different from the idea of demons in the underworld.
In the underground world, if you have such a low forging and strengthening success rate, you won't be able to make a living.
The reason why "hard workers" do this is because of their competitiveness and some luck.
They all feel that they are Satan's darlings. No matter how low the success rate of strengthening is, whenever it is their turn, they feel that they will definitely succeed.
Of course, if he really succeeds, the strong sense of satisfaction will make him happy. After showing off his good luck to the people around him, he will choose to strengthen it more actively next time.
People around him will also feel that the success rate is not as low as imagined because of his luck, and will follow suit and choose to strengthen.
It doesn't matter if the forging fails, they will console themselves crazily, saying things like, "I saw Sun Xiaochuan this morning, bad luck." "I dreamed about Kun yesterday and had a nightmare, no wonder my hands smell bad."
In short, they will not lose confidence in strengthening because of failure. Instead, they will blame other strange things, and when trying to strengthen, they first take a bath, close their eyes and pray, etc.
Since the "hard worker" has such a good mentality, Eugene asked Rocky to help him find a blacksmith.
It’s best to be one with a great reputation but not very good technology.
Rocky was always reliable in his work. Just a few days later, he received a letter saying that he had found a dwarf named Borg.
Dwarves have extremely high forging talents, and Borg is one of the best, and Eugene has heard about him a little bit.
In this generation of Winter City, he is known as the "artifact" master.
The weapons he successfully forged were all either artifacts or high-level weapons.
After hearing this, many people from outside the city came here admiringly and begged him to build a magical weapon.
But even so, he still couldn't eat.
The probability of his success is too low.
Because of its unique forging technique - hammering and splitting the wind, even an iron sword has a high chance of being forged into slag.
So much so that those people who came here because of the reputation looked at their weapons that had been smashed into pieces and yelled "I was fooled!" "You cheated me!" "You must smash the store if you want to," and other angry words.
Some people even gave him the title of "Hot Search Maniac", mocking him for buying the title of "Artifact Master" from Hot Search.
Yes, yes, Eugene needs such talents.
According to Rocky, he had just set out not long ago. Counting the days, Borg should be arriving in the next few days, but his personality may be weird.
Weird? Can this group of "hard workers" be weird?
When I came back from a territorial inspection just now, I saw a "hard worker" walking in front of a yellow truck and falling to the ground.
He pulled the leg of the "hard worker" who had just got out of the car and told him that he had hit him and that he had to be transported to the middle of the Xingka Forest to absorb the essence of the sun and the moon in order to recover.
And he said that if you didn't agree, he would write a word "miserable" on his leg.
…
That's outrageous.
This kind of blackmail is too low-level.
At least I pretend to be a bit more like you, and I want a lot of things, eh...
Forget it, let them do whatever they want, Eugene is almost immune to these weird behaviors.
In addition, my own territory is now developing quite well, and these "hard workers" do have some merit, so let them have fun.
But...Eugene tapped the table with his index finger.
As his territory gradually begins to develop, he has to manage more and more things. Even small things have to be done by himself. This is really unscrupulous.
You must have a steward in your territory to help you deal with these things, and occasionally to restrain the behavior of "hard workers".
At the very least, you don't have to prepare three meals a day yourself. The lord himself doesn't need to do all the big and small things in the territory, such as supervising the construction of "hard work" and purchasing daily necessities.
But such a housekeeper is extremely hard to find.
The main thing is that the housekeeper needs to deal with this group of "hard workers" and must have a certain level of strength.
Otherwise, it would be difficult for an ordinary housekeeper to overwhelm these hard workers. Strength is very important.
Secondly, I am afraid that the housekeeper will say something he shouldn't say when communicating with the "coon" and cause unnecessary problems, which will cause a headache.
So the position of housekeeper is still vacant until now.
Eugene did not ask Rocky to find him. After all, it was more reliable to find this candidate himself.
"It really doesn't work? Choose directly from the "hard workers"? I think the one named [Master Bai] is really good."
Just when Eugene was having a headache about choosing a butler, an extremely sad voice sounded outside the door.
"Please Lord, please make the decision for me. Someone bullies me, woo woo woo..."
