I Become a Landlady in the Game World

"Thank you, village chief. Thank you so much," Chief Miers said to Zhou Bai with gratitude, his voice choking with emotion.

Seeing the tears streaking down Miers' face, Zhou Bai paused.

The plight of the Goblin Clan was indeed heartbreaking.

Thinking this, Zhou Bai simply said, "Now you are one of us, helping you is helping us."

Hearing Zhou Bai's words, Miers immediately pledged his loyalty, "My Goblin Clan will never betray Hope Village."

"Let's sit down and discuss," Zhou Bai continued.

She believed this point.

She didn't know about goblins from other places, but the goblins of Hope Village had their future bound with the village.

She believed, apart from Hope Village, no other territory could offer them such favorable conditions.

Miers obediently sat down with Victor and looked eagerly at Zhou Bai, waiting for her speech.

He was also wondering how his race should develop.

"What do you think the Goblin Clan should do next for development?" Zhou Bai asked the several people present directly.

"We've had a brief discussion, and currently, the Goblin Clan is too weak. We should keep a low profile and develop. We have planned out three points," Yu Changmao, the leader of the three-person team invited by Zhou Bai, began to speak after being asked.

He was a bit surprised when he received the task.

He was a Free Mercenary in the territory, striving to upgrade and to live actively, seeking thrills.

Recently, due to the surge in population, he had rarely hunted near Hope Village; he was planning to accept tasks from other territories and travel around.

While selecting missions, he was chosen by the authorities of the territory.

Indeed, he had quite an interest.

The Goblin Clan in Hope Village had little presence until recently, when their numbers grew, and they became more active in the territory. But even with the increased population, they were very low-key when facing humans, or one could say evasive.

He was well aware their behavior was due to the current predicament of their race.

Being able to help elevate such a race was a matter of immense satisfaction.

Moreover, the remuneration offered by the territory was substantial, so he did not hesitate to accept the task, even outlining a plan for strengthening the clan within his mind.

Those who have lived on Blue Star find inspiration flowing abundantly.

"Let's hear it," Zhou Bai said directly.

Chief Miers' gaze fixed intently on Yu Changmao, his expression somewhat excited.

Seeing their anticipation, Yu Changmao began.

"First, we must strive to earn money, rescue more goblins, and increase the population of the Goblin Clan. A larger population means greater strength, which is needed to support the road to our rise."

"Second, we need to establish our own armed forces. Only when we have sufficient combat power can we protect our homeland. We should select suitable youths to become combatants and provide them with prolonged training."

"Third, we must change people's inherent impressions of goblins, allowing them to develop in various aspects according to their preferences."

"The first phase will revolve around these three points. As for the next phase, that will be determined according to the actual developments. What do you think?"

Hearing this, Chief Miers' heart thumped with excitement.

Yes, this was exactly right.

It was precisely what he wanted!

Despite the excitement in his heart, Chief Miers still waited for Zhou Bai's response.

"That sounds good, Chief Miers. What do you think of their proposal?" Zhou Bai asked, finding their ideas similar to what she had envisioned.

"Great, fantastic. Our Goblin Clan will develop in this direction," Chief Miers promptly agreed and then turned to Yu Changmao, "Then we entrust our Goblin Clan to you, and we will provide you with remuneration."

Thanks to Zhou Bai's generosity, Chief Miers actually had quite a few Gold Coins on hand.

Although the talents were found by the village chief, the work was for the benefit of the Goblin Clan, so it was only natural for him to pay their wages.

Yu Changmao listened and then looked towards Zhou Bai.

Another significant reason for them taking on the task was the Contribution to the territory.

The Contribution reward for this task started at 1000 and was uncapped.

For them, it was a substantial sum. In the future, their starting point would be higher than others if they wanted to join the military.

This remuneration was something the Goblin Clan could not provide.

After all, the rise of the Goblin Clan would not happen in a day or two.

Zhou Bai understood Yu Changmao's intention and nodded, "The territory's promise to you won't change."

"Then we accept this task," Yu Changmao's eyes brightened as he agreed without hesitation.

Seeing this, Chief Miers' gratitude towards Zhou Bai deepened.

He finally understood why Victor was so devoted to Zhou Bai—she deserved it.

She was willing to expend so much manpower and resources to help them despite their Goblin Clan not being closely related to her.

"Thank you, village chief," Chief Miers thanked her again.

He was well aware that the debt he owed her was enormous, and a mere verbal thanks was nothing, but he couldn't help himself.

Zhou Bai looked at Chief Miers' reddening eyes and smiled, "I'll accept your thanks. However, the best repayment would be for you to lead the Goblin Clan to rise. Keep up the good work."

"…Yes."

Afterward, Chief Miers left the office with Yu Changmao and his companions.

Unlike the anxiety he had felt upon arrival, his eyes now sparkled with an unprecedented brilliance.

He was keenly aware that the moment for the Goblin Clan to change their fate had arrived.

If they succeeded, they would be the creators of goblin history.
