Barnes Village, Task Center.
Early in the morning, a good number of rcenaries had returned from Hope Village, each with a look of excitent on their faces.
As soon as they erged, they were instantly surrounded by a crowd of people.
"How is it? What’s Hope Village like?"
"Is it really like what those rchant teams have said?"
"How are those who went there earlier doing?"
"Are the goods really that cheap?"
"..."
Question after question popped up, clearly showing that the residents of Barnes Village were indeed curious about the existence of Hope Village.
The earliest teams from Hope Village had been to Barnes Village and took away quite a few teams and individuals. At the ti, many people did not leave because of the hot weather, and those who followed them later basically did not co back. However, rchant teams would return from ti to ti.
From the rchants, they learned that Hope Village was a good place. Gradually, so people left, but compared to the population of Barnes Village, it wasn’t much.
After all, many people’s fixed assets were tied to Barnes Village, and it was quite difficult for them to give up and move elsewhere.
Since they could buy items from Hope Village, they saw no reason to force themselves to go there.
However, the impression of Hope Village among the residents of Barnes Village kept deepening, as more and more goods were transported from there, and they beca tastier, especially the various kinds of ingredients that had beco an indispensable part of their lives.
Those who were paying attention naturally knew about the recent sudden promotion of Hope Village by over a thousand ranks.
Such a change in rank had thrust it into the middle echelons of 3rd level villages—an achievent to take pride in.
Not to ntion, news spread by rchant teams two days ago stated that Hope Village’s school had started classes. Any child over six could enter, regardless of their talents, and the curriculum covered many professions, starting the cultivation of skills proficiency from a young age.
Many capable professionals would also train their next generation, but the issue was that the direction they trained in wasn’t necessarily suitable for their descendants.
Under such circumstances, many people opted for becoming rcenaries because, for most professionals, this was a direction achievable through hard work and could provide for themselves.
By comparison, the school in Hope Village could completely solve this issue for normal professionals.
With all these conditions, Hope Village was like a dream territory for ordinary people and professionals alike.
This made many who hadn’t experienced Hope Village feel sowhat regretful; had they known, they should have gone there earlier.
Before they could dwell on the idea for a few days, Hope Village suddenly opened vacation tasks, and as long as they were rcenaries, they could go.
That sa day, a large number of rcenaries flocked to Hope Village through the Task Center.
And to date, the rcenaries who went to Hope Village haven’t returned, not even the ones who left later.
Thus, those who ca back today were the first batch to return.
Those who hadn’t had the chance to go, or couldn’t due to not having a rcenary identity, were keen to learn more from these returnees; at least it would prepare them for a visit to Hope Village.
So, this group of jubilant rcenaries returning ho found themselves cornered inside the Task Center.
Startled by the sudden encirclent, they were taken aback. But after listening to the questions and understanding the purpose, they cald down and eagerly responded.
"Hope Village is really great; everything they said before about coming back was true!"
"The goods over there are indeed much cheaper; many items are only sixty to seventy percent of the price in Barnes Village."
"Those who went before us are living so charmingly! Anyway, they have no thoughts of coming back to Barnes Village."
"Rember Locke? He was the captain of our Territory rcenary Team before, and now he’s beco an official working in the Lord Mansion in Hope Village!"
"And others as well, so working in the factory, others opening their own shops. Anyway, everyone I asked felt that it was better living in Hope Village."
"The most important thing is the school. Indeed, as long as they are of age, it involves courses in Body Skills, basic explanations of Magic, Blacksmith, Carpenter, Tailor, Ore Identification, dical Skill, and so on, as well as so courses in language, math, science, which I don’t know much about but seem pretty good. Recently, they added Building. The earliest classes are large ones, and later it’s personalized based on their talent, eventually transitioning to smaller class learning, and by then they’ll be considered apprentices. Speaking of which, you all know how much it costs to be an apprentice to certain special professions, right?"
