"Lord, I think our territory should be updated."

In the morning, Linde, who had just finished breakfast, patrolled the territory as usual.

After the battle last night, the undead were in high spirits, and their sense of belonging to the Star Dragon Outpost was also stronger.

Specifically, they were more serious about their work.

What was even more enthusiastic was their enthusiasm for work. Linde just took a look and found that the blood lambs were almost fed into blood piglets. These little monsters were not picky about food at all, and they were willing to eat as long as it was meat.

But the blood lambs were Pixiu, they only ate and did not poop, and they were visibly stuffed to death.

Although Linde did not care about the fate and future of this little blood hula thing, there was no need to feed it to death, which was a waste of food.

"Update?" Linde looked at the undead who stood in front of him and asked for updated content.

He remembered the other party's name "Silkless Legs", maybe he could fight with "Favorite White Silk".

"Lord, don't you think it's a little confusing for us to issue the task now?" He pointed to the undead who were chatting with several women in the distance. They were arguing about the content of a task.

This is the disadvantage of verbal tasks.

There will always be one party who will mix up or make mistakes, unable to coordinate, and finally conflict.

Linde walked over, and the four undead players who were arguing and the female NPCs who didn't know what to say stopped instantly.

"What's going on?"

The women who were afraid of being disgusted by him took the initiative to explain: "Lord, the spoils you brought back last night need to be dealt with. We want to let the undead deal with it at the price of 1 gold coin for every 2 pieces."

Linde nodded.

It is indeed reasonable to let the undead do this, and the price of 1 gold coin for two pieces seems to be quite high, but it is not easy to deal with the blood stains, maintenance and repair on the spoils, and it is also a hidden benefit for the undead.

You can learn the skills of repairing armor and polishing weapons.

"Then what? Do they think the price is too low?" Lind looked at the four undeads. Although he didn't say anything, the lord's momentum was clearly revealed.

The four undeads shook their heads quickly. Fortunately, they all knew that this was the "plot" of the NPCs, so they kept their mouths shut.

"No" The female NPC was very distressed: "When I first talked about this, an undead came to take this task."

She pointed at one of the undeads, then pointed at another one with a twist of her finger: "Then this one also came over and said he wanted to do it together."

Lind quietly waited for her to explain the cause and effect.

"But," the woman grabbed her hair, very distressed: "But, when the third person came, he said he could charge only 1 gold coin for 3 pieces."

"The fourth person then said he could charge only 1 gold coin for 4 pieces."

"Then the few people started arguing."

The undead who had been silent all the time said: "Lord, let me do it, 1 gold coin for 5 pieces is fine!"

"Lord, I don't charge money!"

"Lord, I can pay 1 gold coin for every 5 pieces I handle."

"I'll pay 2 gold coins!"

"I'll pay..."

Linde was almost choked. He now understood that this group of damn undead not only rolled on Earth, but also rolled inward when they came to this land.

Work scabs!

He could also understand the undead's approach, not to steal the skills of repairing weapons and armor.

"1 gold coin for every two pieces, you did a good job" Linde didn't listen to the undead at all, just nodded to the female NPC.

Is gold the key? Not at all. This thing is worthless without the Star Dragon Post. What he wants is the labor of the undead.

If the already unstable system is messed up by the scabs, who will work, who will not work, how to work, and how to manage will all be troublesome.

He turned and looked at the undead: "Now, those who are willing to work for two pieces of 1 gold coin please come..." Then he turned to ask the female NPC: "How many people do you need?"

"Two at most, we don't have so many things to do." She has been accustomed to the work rhythm here, and the effect looks good.

"Then two!"

The undead obeyed obediently, the first two came to work, and the other two left.

The silkless beautiful legs following Linde said: "My lord, this is it, this group of undead only care about themselves, only care about involution, it seems that they can help, but they will eventually destroy the fragile economic system here."

Linde couldn't help but look at the other party twice more, the other party completely separated himself from the players.

"Indeed," Lind nodded. He knew this problem and had a solution. That was to use unchangeable text to rigidly require each task, rather than letting the undead communicate actively.

Because Lind knew very well that these NPCs were living people, and living people could think and be moved by language.

Coincidentally, shamelessness is one of the advantages of players.

Although there is a solution, he is a little too busy because the undead are developing too fast, and he has not yet implemented it.

It seems... using undead to govern undead is a good method, otherwise only using NPCs to manage, the manpower is a little insufficient.

He looked at the silkless beautiful legs.

"Why not try parchment?" Silkless Legs made her own suggestion: "Write down the task content on parchment, and then give it to the undead to do, in duplicate, to ensure that no one will cheat, and to ensure that the task content is absolutely correct, and there will be no more disputes."

"Well, but there is no parchment in the territory." Linde nodded, then shook his head: "Perhaps, you can help the territory find enough paper?"

Linde has long wanted to make paper, but unfortunately the weather does not allow it. The climate is too cold, and the pulp turns into ice faster.

Making paper in winter requires more patience.

Since the undead has proposed it, let the undead do it.

Silkless Legs was very happy: "Yes, Lord! I will definitely complete your task!"

If her proposal was passed, does it mean that players can also influence the decisions of NPCs?

Does it mean that in the future players can seek higher positions, and even... become a local overlord!

He is going to go back and post an analysis post.

...

"Lord, we have successfully researched cement!"

Good news came one after another.

However, the weather was too cold and there was no mixer, so the undead could only act like animals, stirring the cement to prevent freezing.

"Very good," Lind was quite satisfied: "Since you have enough cement, I think you can help Star Dragon Outpost build a government office."

Tasks should always be done step by step, anyway, don't be idle.

"Of course, sir! What style do you want? We have a lot of people, and we can build it for you in a day or two!"

The undead who are keen on building houses finally have materials available.

The frame is made of wood, and filled with stones and cement. The house may not be very beautiful, but it must be good for keeping out the cold.

The undead were also very enthusiastic, and asked Lind for an area to build a dormitory for 8 women and children.

They really understand human nature.
