Chapter 582 The Elderly Awakener

"no problem."

"I've been looking forward to this day for a long time."

"In a world like the wasteland, I feel honored to have your support."

Hearing Lindsay's response, the insect tribe's envoy looked happy.

But before they could continue the conversation, Lindsay suddenly added:

"But, you two, I think this matter still needs to wait for a while."

Lindsay explained her thoughts:

"It is of great importance to accept new forces into the territory."

"This not only means our cooperation, but also serves as an example to other forces with trade ties."

"So what I mean is - it's best to choose a suitable and safe day to send a notice to the territories and nearby forces. In this way, I can express my attitude towards you and other wasteland forces."

Lindsay had a good reason, and the two insect messengers naturally had no objections.

They followed Lindsay's instructions and planned to take the good news home first, and then discuss the specific time in detail later.

…

After dealing with the insect envoys, Lindsay went to express condolences nearby and interacted with the envoys from various territories for a while.

After he left, the polite smile on his face immediately collapsed.

The tangle in his eyes was even thicker than when he came in!

"It couldn't have come at a better time."

"But I am powerless now!"

Lindsay complained in her mind.

Gaining new territory is certainly good news, but there's actually another link to the matter.

There are two requirements for converting Zerg territory.

First, it requires the loyalty of the other party, which has been completed now.

But there is a second requirement, which is to unlock the technological research of [Second Base].

Currently, Lindsay has completed the construction of the upgraded basic buildings, but there is still no sign of a second base.

Want to complete this research and development.

I'm afraid he still needs to upgrade his town center to the next stage in order to obtain the corresponding scientific research projects.

The problem returned to the previous trouble.

Money and population have been solved, but where can I find a rare material like mercury?

"The mineral information provided by the green swamp scouts showed no signs of mercury sulfide at all. If you want to do this, you must... By the way, the color of cinnabar is more conspicuous, which is easy to be discovered, and it itself Poisonous, maybe it would be easier to get information about poisons?”

Lindsay thought so.

Hammer's figure appears in the town again.

After leading several missions, the supervisor has now handed over all diplomatic work to his trained subordinates.

He himself returned to the management of the town.

At this moment, Hammer rushed over. He was so busy that he got straight to the point:

"Ms. Lindsay, everyone liked the public bathroom you built before. However, because it is so popular, the supply now exceeds the demand!"

Lindsay asked:

"Is the bathhouse crowded?"

"It's not just crowded." Hammer shook his head, "It's like cooking in a big pot!"

"To meet everyone's current needs, I'm afraid we need to build two buildings for men and women."

Lindsay was a little surprised:

"Is the demand so great?"

He thought that people who had adapted to life in the wasteland would not have a need for bathing too quickly!

Hammer explained with a wry smile that he even included himself:

"Once we get used to cleaning, we can't get used to the dirty and itchy state of the past."

Lindsay couldn't help but laugh a little, but she was more supportive:

"I understand. I will go to the bathhouse to expand it later. Just remember to arrange the construction."

Hammer nodded slightly and prepared to leave.

Lindsay suddenly stopped him:

"By the way, Hammer, are there enough farmland and livestock?"

"I'm not talking about the food and clothing in the camp, but the transaction needs from the outside world."

Hammer nodded.

"At the current population growth rate, it won't be a problem within a month."

Lindsay nodded and then said:

"Then after the public bathhouse is completed, I will build some new farmland and livestock fences. You should also make arrangements for the newly relocated refugees in the territory and give them suitable jobs and training."

Lindsay looked in the direction of the university, and there was a lot of people there.

Some time ago.

He had just studied the technology of [education popularization] in college.

Therefore, all the people who have studied in the past can now go to university for further studies. Hillud's work has been greatly affected by this, and recently she can't even find time to harass Lindsay.

"What a blessing among misfortunes."

Lindsay looked at the university and felt a little happy.

He continued walking around the town.

People who live in the wasteland especially know how precious this environment is. They will even take the initiative to maintain order, and even arguments and quarrels are very rare.

This month, one of the cases that Lindsay handled even resulted in a fight because someone did not respect him as a lord enough.

Lindsay opened the town management panel.

There is a stability level above, which is currently 70%, which means that it is quite stable and people live and work in peace and contentment.

On the lower row of crime rates, there is only a faint red of 1%.

"Probably just some petty theft?"

"But this matter should still be investigated. The decline of morality often starts from small details."

Lindsay is preparing to organize the guards to carry out public security rectification.

Just then, he saw the three travelers he had spotted when he had just entered the embassy area.

The two young men had relaxed their guard a little.

The old man's eyes were even more fanatical.

"..."

"Following me all the time? Now... it's been almost three hours?"

Lindsay finally realized the special situation.

Usually, refugees who had just arrived in the territory would also pay considerable attention to themselves, but the three-hour observation was a unique situation.

He opened the map.

The result was the same as before, the old man was a very bright green, and the two young men were a neutral and wary yellow.

"Old man..."

Lindsay's eyes turned.

His thinking gradually left the manager mode, and he began to realize the special situation from the perspective of an adventurer.

The civilization in the wasteland was cut off mainly because of the average life expectancy and the bleak environment.

But decades ago, this place was also a civilized place.

Occasionally, old people came to seek refuge. They were limited to their status as ordinary people, and their understanding of the past was limited, and they could not provide too much information.

But this old man was different.

He was an awakener!

With the identity of an awakener and his age, he must have experienced the peaceful years before the war and could obtain much more information than ordinary people!

"..."

Linsey's eyes changed.

Such a person did not leave during the early stages of the war, but stayed in the wasteland until he found Rongshuling now.

...What is his purpose?

Linsey took out the seriousness and respect that a lord should have, and took the initiative to walk towards the three people:

"Old sir, welcome to my territory."

The two young men next to the old man moved a little, but the old man took the lead and stopped in front of the two:

He bowed to Linsey, and his voice was full of excitement and excitement:

"Lord, your skills are really impressive, and the management of the territory is perfect!"

Linsey heard the other party's good intentions, he made way and pointed in the direction of his residence:

"I know you must have important business to visit this time."

"But there are so many people outside, let's go to my residence to discuss the specific issues in detail?"
