Li Aoting thought of the greedy but incompetent He Ange and just shook her head: “I guess he didn’t listen, or it was too late. It’s hard to say whether his city-state can survive the winter.”
Yao Bingan could only sigh. He Ange would not treat her badly, but it was hard to say the other residents. That guy was very greedy and always wanted to keep most of the resources in his own hands.
And once it was in his own hands, he felt that it was his and was not willing to share it with others. A city lord with such a character will not go far.
To be a city lord in the game world, not only a person do things well, but one also must have a broad mind and a long-term vision.
Yao Bingan thought of another thing, “By the way, the city lord has opened the window to sell grain, but there is a limit to each household, which is understandable. People can avoid hoarding goods maliciously.”
“Didn’t you tell me before that the city lord has given her word that she had enough resources to make the residents live in peace, and now she has fulfilled her promise at that time.”
“Then what are your plans for winter? Are you just going to live like this? Although I won’t get fat now, it’s boring without a mobile phone or computer.”
Staying at home with no entertainment options made her feel every minute like a year. Before, she could go out to explore the wilderness, but now she can only stay in the city.
Li Aoting thought of the hot spring club and the bar, “Have you forgotten the hot spring club? Let’s go play there. Even if there are few people, it’s nice to see the scenery in the game. If you don’t want to, let’s go to the bar to listen to music.”
Playing games in the game world sounds like crazy, but it was entertaining.
Yao Bingan said: “Forget it. The games I used to play didn’t have personal equipment. They were all the same characters. They couldn’t do anything else. They could only run around casually. Let’s go listen to music.”
Li Aoting thought of the league she had played before, and patted her shoulder: “Let’s play in the league. There are many people in the city-state, and there are many people online.”
The game world was very boring. Although there were games, there were not many interesting ones. Games such as Alliances were more interesting. Everyone comes and goes, and it was not a solo game. There were quite a few people.
“Okay, I haven’t played that game much, you can teach me when the time comes.”
“No problem.”
In any case, they don’t think about going out in winter for the time being. Just give themselves a vacation and have fun.

On the other hand, Lu Jiu was in the city lord’s mansion. She selected about a hundred people with her eyes closed and sent them emails respectively. When they gathered at the task hall tomorrow morning, they would allocate areas and work tools in person.
Some residents who received the city lord’s reply were very happy. Maybe it was because they had been working non-stop for half a year. They felt bored when they stopped. Now they have something to do and can still get paid, so why not do it?
There were a total of 112 areas in the city-state, all divided by Shen Jufeng.
At 9 o’clock the next morning, Lu Jiu and Shen Jufeng stayed in the city lord’s mansion yesterday to avoid others guessing where they lived when they came out of the residential area.
A tall, strong man followed the girl. The two came to the mission hall, and everyone who saw them moved out of the way.
Most people in the city-state had seen these two in the autumn. At that time, people returned from outside the city and suddenly disappeared. They all knew that there was an exclusive residence for the city lord in the city, and they, the residents, could not see it.
After arriving in the hall, they placed a table in the most conspicuous position and placed a list on the table. These were the residents who applied for the job. The areas they were responsible for have been distributed by Shen Jufeng.
He just needed to tell them now.
“Is Zhang Chengyun, a resident of Building 1 of the Residence Hall, here?” The girl’s clear voice echoed in the hall.
Someone quickly responded, “I’m here.”
The person who was called quickly went to the front, but he didn’t expect that he was the first to be called.
Opposite the table sat the city lord and deputy city lord. The girl pointed to the chair opposite her and said: “Sit down.”
“Yes!” Zhang Chengyun sat down quickly, his palms a little sweaty. He had applied for jobs many times before, but he was never so nervous this time.
The person who spoke to him this time was the fierce-looking deputy city lord. He pointed to an area on the city-state plan, “Starting from the entrance of Building 1 of the Rental Hall, you are responsible for the main road from the entrance of Building 2 to the entrance of Building 2.”
This paper-based 3D plane allows them to more intuitively understand the areas they were responsible for. Only the area that each person was responsible for was marked, and other areas were not displayed.
Zhang Chengyun learned about the area he was responsible for and nodded with a smile. His workplace was right in front of his house, which was a good thing: “Okay, I understand.”
The deputy city lord put away the picture and continued: “The specific salary has been sent to inform you and will be sent to you by email every day.”
“I understand, I understand.” He nodded hurriedly. He told him the salary when he was notified yesterday that he would apply for the job. “Should I start today or tomorrow…”
“Tomorrow, today I will just explain to everyone the area you are responsible for. The work props have also been sent to you, please check them carefully.”
Zhang Chengyun read the email and opened it. It was indeed invested in construction and the props were among them. “Okay, I understand. Thank you City Lord, Deputy City Lord.”
The girl nodded slightly and started to call the next person.
There were many children in the mission hall, and Lu Jiu noticed that Zhuang Antong and Tang Yi were among them. Yesterday, she told Zhuang Yun that she would sleep more with Shen Jufeng before going out in the afternoon.
Tang Yi took Zhuang Antong’s hand and looked carefully at the two people sitting there.
He looked down at Zhuang Antong and whispered in his ear: “The deputy city lord looks so fierce.”
Zhuang Antong nodded slightly. The elder brother’s eyes were sharp, just like the eyes of an eagle she had seen before: “But he is still handsome, just not as handsome as my father.”
Tang Yi showed an expression that he couldn’t understand what she said, “Yes, I think that sister is very beautiful, and she looks very gentle.”
Zhuang Antong took a closer look at the Sister City Lord sitting there, and nodded seriously, “Well, although she is not as good-looking as Sister Jiu, but she is also beautiful. My father said that Sister City Lord is a very kind person and wants me to remember her forever. Because of her kindness and generosity, we can live such a good life.”
Tang Yi said: “My grandpa said the same thing. Anyway, they are both good-looking.”
What a great thing to say.
Another number of children flocked to them. The children gathered together and chatted, and the content of their chats was getting wild and wild.
It took more than a hundred people a while to finish all the explanations. The deputy city lord put away the tables and chairs, followed the city lord and the two of them left slowly, without intending to say anything more to the other residents.
However, everyone does not think that the two of them are very cold. After all, the good living environment in the city was there. Some people can understand the reasons why they do this. As the ruling city lord, it was not suitable to be too close to the residents. It was more beneficial to stay away and just manage things.
When passing several children, the city lord stopped.
She stretched out her hand and handed out a small plaid backpack, “Here you go.”
Zhuang Antong and others looked at her innocently, no one dared to reach out.
Instead, the city lord casually put it in the hand of the child closest to her, “One for each person, you must divide them equally.”
After saying that, she left, leaving a few children looking at each other.
When they opened the backpack and found some oranges inside. One child exclaimed, “Wow, oranges.”
Several children happily divided the oranges but felt sad looking at the empty plaid backpack.
