Orlof said: "The ancient battlefield of the Demon Observation is the battlefield ruins left by the first Demon Observation War. This is the paradise for explorers and Taobaoers, and it is also the paradise for the fallen ones! Of course, it is just one of the ancient battlefields. You must know that the war at that time affected the entire continent."

Ye Feng pondered secretly, but listened to Orov continued: "Not only that, although the barren town is barren and desolate, it is a hundred miles away from the east and the endless sea and the Adelai Prairie in the west. There are many neutral nomadic tribes with good relations with the Light Alliance. According to the elders of the barren town, these tribes have maintained good business relations with us for a long time. Unfortunately, the sand bandits occupied the main traffic routes of the Storm Gobi and attacked the caravans everywhere. After a long time, no caravans were willing to come to Barren Town to do business."

"Through the Adelaide Prairie, the famous continent, is the legendary Beast Emperor Mountain. It is the largest habitat of the Orcs. The orcs' holy land, the Orcs' king city, was built on the Abidas Peak, the highest altitude of the Qizaro Mountains. The Orcs are also a group of the Light Alliance. They are born with great strength, and each of them is a high-level warrior, but alchemy and forging are very backward. In the past, we often exchanged gems or weapons for their rare ore and wood..."

...

Orlov talked endlessly with a menopausal staff for a quarter of an hour. Ye Feng roughly understood the situation, wiped out the sand bandits and thieves in the storm Gobi, regained the mines, and opened up the transportation hub connecting the Adelay Grassland. The business in the barren town will flourish. Well, that's basically what it means.

Ye Feng said with a serious expression: "Captain Orov, I know many adventurers and friends. I think I can use their power to wipe out the sand bandits!"

"No, no!" Orov waved his hand repeatedly and said, "You may not know that there is a storm barrier across the periphery of the Storm Gobi. It is a magical ban set up by the Temple of Light to prevent adventurers from breaking into the Storm Gobi in ignorance! Unless it is an adventurer warrior, oh, according to the level divided by adventurers' strength, it is level 90, otherwise you will be strangled once you enter the Storm Barrier. I think few adventurers can have such strength now."

"And..." Orov's expression was even more solemn and solemn. "The Knights of the Rage Lions are the garrison troops of the desolate town, and they are the most loyal guards of the Count. If the Lord uses external forces to eliminate the sand bandits, it is equivalent to insulting all the soldiers of the Knights of the Rage Lions who believe in the spirit of the Knights. If possible, please allow us to fight for you! Although our troops are small, we are willing to use our blood and life to defend the loyalty and glory of being knights!"

Ye Feng was speechless. You can't beat the sand bandits and don't allow the master to use the private army. What's the reason?

But no matter how much you complain, not to mention that there is no master of level 90 in the guild, except him, and even if you have it, you can't use it. If you insist on doing it alone, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction with NPC, and you can only follow Orov's arrangements.

By the way, Young Master Ye has already determined to be a wise master who is supported and loved by NPC, and he will definitely not do anything that he can mock him.

After thinking about it, Ye Feng comforted him: "Captain Orov, I misunderstand you. I swear in the name of the most devout believer of the God of Light, and I have no intention of insulting you. But as you said, the residents of the Barren Town are hungry and cold, and their lives are unsustainable. As the lord of the Barren Town, I urgently hope to defeat the sand bandits as soon as possible, regain the mines belonging to the Barren Town, open up the trade corridor leading to the Adelay Prairie, give them work and pay them, and let them live a prosperous life. Sorry, I think I was too hasty."

Ye Feng stood up and bowed slightly to apologize to Orov. At first glance, he looked extremely sincere. To this day, Ye Feng had already touched the tricks of dealing with NPCs, and was familiar with them, and had no psychological burden at all.

The Montoris continent is of a very strict hierarchy. In Orov's eyes, Ye Feng's Count's identity is so noble. He apologized and saluted to him. Orov really couldn't bear it. He immediately returned the salute with fear and looked grateful. Although there was no systematic prompt, according to his posture, Ye Feng's image was more than a hundred times more magnificent in his heart.

"So, Commander Orov, do you have any way to eliminate the sand bandits?" Ye Feng asked, thinking that these NPCs are so cute, and you don't have to worry about fooling them. Just show respect, it's easier.

"Recruit soldiers and expand arms!"

"How to recruit?" Ye Feng knew nothing about recruiting NPCs and subconsciously thought that it was to buy slaves. However, although he was an earl, he only allowed to buy ten slaves according to the laws of the kingdom. What can ten NPCs do to force a team?

At this time, Orlof said: "There are many ways. Your territory is deserted town, including twenty villages under the jurisdiction of a hundred miles, and many hunters who make a living by hunting. Give them a set of leather armor and a longbow, and they can become the most elite archers under your command. As long as you are willing to pay, I think at least half of the hunters are willing to join and be able to serve the Count is a supreme honor for them."

"In addition, you can also issue a recruitment order to recruit wandering mercenaries in his jurisdiction, and the ranger will serve you. As long as they are given satisfactory rewards, they will also be willing to become your private army."

...

While listening to Orov's plan carefully, Ye Feng looked through the stack of books. Sure enough, there was a map with detailed territory in it. On it, there was a scattered with twenty marks representing villages scattered with the barren town as the center. The residents of these villages also belonged to the lords under his jurisdiction.

At this time, Orov said again: "But if you recruit soldiers, you have to pay an additional gold coin, including the recruitment fee, and the number of weapons and equipment will not be small."

"How much gold would I have to pay for recruiting a soldier."

"Like us, we receive monthly remuneration, ten gold coins per month. However, if adults have enough wealth, I suggest that adults can appropriately increase their remuneration, such as eleven gold coins, so that they will definitely appreciate your kindness and fight for you more bravely!"

"Then let's have twelve gold coins!" Ye Feng waved his hand, and he had a strong momentum of a rich man who spent money like earth. In fact, the twelve gold coins were calculated based on the game settings, which was only enough to support a civilian family for one month's expense.

"You are such a generous nobleman!" Orov was so excited that he almost burst into tears. Perhaps in his conception, the nobles were all known for being stingy and even vampires.

Ye Feng smiled kindly and asked, "So, where should I go to purchase weapons and equipment for you? I think your armor is not worthy of your bravery at all!"

There are hundreds of thousands of pieces of equipment in the guild warehouse, but the equipment of players and NPCs in the game is not the same concept. You cannot wear each other's equipment. If you provide equipment for NPCs, you either mine and forge them by themselves or find NPCs to purchase them. There is no other way.

"If you believe me, Orov is willing to serve the adults, but a good set of armor costs up to eighty gold coins. Although leather armor is cheap, it also costs sixty gold coins, which is a huge expense."

Ye Feng used his actions to prove that he was not short of money. He took out 40,000 gold coins from his bag and put them in a purse and handed them to Orlov: "Add your knights first. As for the recruitment fee and the construction cost of the desolate town, I will pay you next time. Now you can recruit soldiers to purchase equipment!"

Olov was so excited that he put away his wallet and bowed solemnly: "Sir Earl, with your support, I can bring you an elite unit of 3,000 people in ten days. At that time, I will lead the army to sweep away those damn sand bandits..."
