Chapter 61 - Hegemony or Slice Of Life?
Many people in the territory came out and looked curiously at the fox people.
Soon, Richard led the fox people to the area between the castle and the town. There, over a thousand tents had already been set up.
The fox people each selected their own tents.
Dorothy stayed with Richard in the castle. Although the castle was small, there were quite a few rooms.
Then, Dorothy’s mother, seeing that the small castle had no servants, selected some beautiful fox girls from the tribe and sent them to Richard’s castle to take care of it.
Now, the small castle finally became lively.
Richard didn’t rush to let the fox people participate in work, giving all the tribe members two days of rest. He himself continued to the construction site to supervise the establishment of the new city.
When he arrived at the construction site, Richard opened the livestream and found that there were even more people in the broadcast room.
A large number of newcomers poured in, flooding the chat with all sorts of questions.
After scanning through them, Richard looked away.
Many newcomers exclaimed “heartless.”
Gradually, Richard also gained a notorious nickname: Ruthless Streamer King!
Then, these newcomers with many questions started watching. Although, today’s livestream didn’t have any exciting big scenes.
Richard just inspected the construction site and checked the progress.
However, the appearance of the minotaurs still lifted the spirits of many newcomers.
【It’s really bull people.】
【Hey, they look real.】
【Did you watch yesterday’s video? These minotaurs are super powerful.】
【So, does this mean the streamer really crossed over?】
【…】
A large number of newcomers discussed while watching. Many old fans silently watched, occasionally adding a comment or two.
The next day, the fox people officially joined the construction efforts.
There were a total of over eleven hundred fox people, but less than half of them were able to work.
Richard bought a large quantity of materials for building shelters from the online marketplace, intending to cover all the dozens of acres of potatoes that had been cultivated earlier with shelters.
The food for the residents of the territory was not yet fully ripe, so not much could be produced. However, these potatoes had already started to grow vigorously. Once they matured, producing several thousand kilograms per mu (approximately 0.067 hectares) would not be a problem. With dozens of mu of land, hundreds of thousands of kilograms could be produced.
Buying such a large quantity of potatoes from the online store would cost a lot of money.
There were already quite a few places where money was spent.
Daily food expenses amounted to tens of thousands, cement cost tens of thousands, and other building materials cost tens of thousands as well.
With the expansion of the army, equipment expenses were also a large sum.
However, Richard had quite a bit of money on hand now, so he didn’t need to worry too much.
On this day, when a large number of fox people appeared, the chat room once again stirred up a commotion.
Richard continued to livestream the city construction.
Occasionally, he would have his phone follow the minotaur Tieling for filming. This guy had already gained quite a bit of popularity.
After a few more days, Richard could finally initiate another lottery.
‘I wonder what I’ll draw this time,’ Richard wondered.
He directly drew the prize.
【Congratulations, Host, you have drawn the magic: Intermediate Fire Control.】
Although this lottery required a lot of reputation, the magic had finally upgraded to Intermediate Fire Control.
The Beginner Fire Control could only produce a fireball at most, and the power of the fireball was actually very limited. Intermediate Fire Control would be more formidable.
Several days later, as the locusts had not yet arrived, some netizens in the chat room began to grow impatient.
【Anchor, I came from Douyin. Honestly, at first, I didn’t believe you crossed over, but now I do. But after you crossed over, you just do this every day, building the city? When will it be finished?】 a netizen named “Iron Blood Warrior” spoke up.
【Yeah, anchor, although building the city looks interesting, watching it every day gets a bit boring,】
【Anchor, you said you crossed over, why not do something bigger?】
【Yeah, crossing over without rebelling, what’s the difference from being a salted fish?】
【Anchor, your minotaurs are so fierce, why not go to battle? Conquer the surrounding territories, don’t hesitate, we’ve got your back!】
【…】
In the chat room, after one person spoke up, a large number of netizens chimed in.
[I Want To Be King] rewarded with 100 Super Rockets. Comment: Hegemony, hegemony, I want to see hegemony!
Even a tycoon came forward and directly threw out 100 super rockets.
【Anchor, take advantage of this locust disaster to take over the surrounding territories, or gather hundreds of thousands of disaster victims and proclaim yourself king!】
【Yes, you can also attack the beast kingdom to get more beast warriors.】
【I can’t believe what you guys are thinking. How could the streamer, with so few people, attempt hegemony?】
【I just want to watch farming, don’t do anything reckless, brave streamer.】
【Slice of Life always! Focus on the development, anchor! Don’t listen to them.】
[Cute Big-Eyed Bunny] rewarded with 100 super rockets. Comment: I just want my husband to be safe!
【…】
The chat room became extremely lively.
Many people were encouraging Richard to rebel, while quite a few veteran viewers, who had been watching for over a month, advised him to develop steadily.
There were also some netizens who were simply spectating.
