I have millions of wage earners

Combat-type NPCs have their own unique advantages: they can work 24 hours a day, basically do not need logistical supplies, they are absolutely loyal, they absolutely execute orders, they are absolutely devoted to their duties without complaining...

Building a large NPC army is stupid and unrealistic.

However, it is still very useful to summon a small number of combat-type NPCs to be used in special positions.

For example, summon two soldiers to stand guard at the lumber mill.

Another example is summoning two soldiers to act as lord guards.

Flynn wanted to save some mithril powder, but now Potato Village has a bigger plate and has opened a branch mine.

Now that we have grown and developed, we have to spend the money we should spend!

We can't let players stand guard 24 hours a day, right?

So Flynn endured the pain, with tears in his eyes, and slightly tremblingly summoned five 20-dollar pieces in the system...

5 ordinary soldiers with a weekly salary of 20 grams of powder.

The combat effectiveness of ordinary soldiers summoned by the system is at the level of ordinary soldiers. They cannot be resurrected after death, and they cannot produce direct economic effects for themselves.

Flynn really felt like he was losing blood and being slaughtered by the system.

But there is no other way. The money that should be spent must be spent.

Flynn summoned five soldiers, admired their equipment, and took a look at the soldiers' mental outlook.

Worthy of being a regular army, it does seem to be much more reliable than the players.

The summoned soldiers all wore simple chainmail and held iron spears common in the Middle Ages. The flag on the gun head was Flynn's aristocratic emblem - an interlaced pattern of red roses on a white background and white roses on a red background.

Perhaps the actual combat effectiveness of these soldiers is only equivalent to the most ordinary regular sergeants of the kingdom.

But the spirit of these soldiers is really good. Compared with the common robber-like soldiers in the Middle Ages, NPC soldiers look more like elite soldiers.

Flynn's heart was bleeding due to blood loss, and he felt a little comforted by seeing that his soldier looked decent and not just a rotten soldier.

Flynn asked two soldiers to go to the lumber mill and take orders from the lumber mill director to maintain the safety of the lumber mill.

Although the two soldiers did not have a strong combat power, relying on the wooden wall and mobilizing the workers of the lumber mill to make up for their losses, at least a small group of Goblin bandits should not dare to attack the lumber mill again.

Flynn didn't expect the two soldiers to be able to beat the odds, fight wolves, and frighten a small group of bandits. Even if they accomplished the mission.

Flynn arranged the remaining three soldiers in his lord's mansion.

The three soldiers will arrange their own shifts for standing guard, patrolling, and resting to ensure that there are no blind spots in security services.

In fact, Flynn is not worried about his safety in the village, but after all, he is in charge of almost 500 people now. As a dignified lord, he still needs a few guards!

"Pai Noodles" is a must.

Moreover, Flynn had to be careful to lock the door every time he went out, and sometimes he was worried about An'er who was left alone at home.

With guards, Flynn can safely let soldiers guard his house without having to worry about players sneaking in and stealing.

…

The newly recruited NPC soldiers ensured the safety of the lumber mill to a certain extent. After the lumber mill started operating smoothly, the lack of wood in Tudou Village was finally greatly alleviated.

Not only is there no shortage of wood, there is even excess wood that can be exported.

But after thinking about it, Flynn did not choose to export the wood for the time being, because after all, the scale of the current lumber mill was not large, and it would be better to store the excess wood for emergencies.

With an abundant supply of wood, architect Bill Ding and carpenter Wood were at full strength.

The villagers' new houses are gradually being built.

These new homes may not be luxurious, but they are practical enough. Compared with the shabby concrete tents of grass, wood and mud that were common in the villagers before, they are nowhere near as high.

Moreover, Flynn was pleased to see that many poor villagers had spare money for the first time as a result of joining the workforce - the indigenous villagers gradually became consumers.

In the blacksmith shop, bakery, carpentry shop, grocery store, and various shops in Tudou Village, indigenous villagers gradually appeared.

Although the price is too high, most villagers just look at it and are not willing to buy it.

But occasionally there are a few villagers who spend money on things such as iron pots, kitchen knives, candles, condiments, etc. that can improve the quality of life and become the motivation for the indigenous villagers to work hard.

With the completion of the new residence, Tudou Village has entered a new era.

And Flynn is also preparing to start the next take-off of Tudou Village - a larger-scale internal test, which can be launched at any time!

It has been about 20 days since the release of "Superman Chronicles 2" and the Rise of the Brave version.

The maximum number of people online has also expanded from 100 at the beginning of the version to 150.

During these 20 days, Flynn made some gains and discovered some problems.

After being fully prepared, Flynn plans to update the new version.

First of all, the number of people online must be greatly increased. The initial goal is to have 300 people online at the same time.

Because there was a non-hidden achievement in the system before: [Achievement: New Prosperity] - when the number of online players exceeds 300 at the same time, the achievement rewards Tudou Village for upgrading to a town.

In order to achieve this achievement, Flynn is planning to set an online scale of at least 300 people.

The reason Flynn had the confidence to launch a larger-scale internal test was naturally because he had enough mithril on hand.

First, let’s take stock of the income and expenditure of mithril powder.

Currently, the NPCs that Tudou Village needs to maintain include: blacksmith 5g, baker 5g, carpenter 10g, construction engineer 40g, grocer 40g, combat instructor 50g, guerrilla instructor 50g, and two warehouse managers 6g , butcher 5 grams, barbecue master 15 grams, veteran mercenary 100 grams, horseherd 10 grams, lumber mill director 15 grams, 5 soldiers 100 grams.

Together, these NPCs need to spend 451 grams of mithril powder every week. In addition, players die many times every day and use mithril powder to exchange for the expenses of resurrecting statues. In addition, Witch True occasionally orders mithril powder. .

After a week, Flynn needed to spend more than 600 grams of mithril powder.

Of course, these NPCs are not hired at the same time, so the Mithril expenditure will be less in the early stage.

But in general, if Flynn does not plan to fire the NPC, then the current situation is to spend 600 grams of mithril powder a week.

In terms of mithril income, "Power Rangers 2" is basically full all day long, so the mithril powder that 150 people can provide is 1,050 grams per week.

Of course, there were only 100 people online at the beginning, and later it was 150.

So the mithril powder obtained online ended up being 2938 grams.

In addition, during this time, players also brought back dozens of kilograms of mithril ore for Flynn.

But mithril ore is not equal to mithril. One kilogram of mithril ore can generally extract a few grams to more than ten grams of mithril.
