I Become a Landlady in the Game World

Ningshan Village, Task Center.

Ningshan Village had just opened their Task Center after experiencing and winning a Territory War, with their territorial strength climbing another step.

Confident with such a result, they had boldly initiated the opening.

Following the launch, Ningshan Village had released several tasks and, likewise, many from Ningshan had ventured out through the Task Center.

Of course, most of those who left were the more powerful within the territory, bearing the responsibility to explore other territories, some to native territories and others to the Blue Star Territory.

After all, the former allowed them to gain a deeper understanding of this world, while the latter permitted the combination of compatible forces.

There were also many who wished to visit other territories for sightseeing or to search for relatives.

Indeed, quite a few had found their relatives lost during the apocalypse by posting tasks, leading to an ever-increasing number of visitors to the Task Center each day.

Today, as usual, many people arrived at the Task Center to check the task list.

First, to see if there were suitable tasks available.

Second, to check whether anyone had accepted the missing person tasks they had posted.

It was at this moment that several tasks from the same territory suddenly appeared on the screens in front of them.

This territory was one they were familiar with.

#Hope Village: Recruiting for supporting professions, starting from 50 silver coins a month#

#Hope Village: Recruiting doctors, starting from 1 Gold Coin a month#

#Hope Village: Buying large quantities of shells, 10 copper coins per pound#

#Hope Village: Inviting individuals for a vacation#

#...#

"They've opened up! They've opened up!"

"Hope Village has finally opened their Task Center, now we can go check it out!"

"Yes, when they reached level 2 and surpassed us, I was already curious. Now at level 3, I'm really even more interested."

"But to go there, we'll need to find a suitable task!"

"Didn't you carefully look at the tasks? They're inviting people for a vacation."

"Holy shit, I see it. Can it really work like that?"

"It just shows that Hope Village is loaded. Normally, the transportation fees generated by using the Transmission Array for tasks published by a territory are borne by the territory itself. So as long as one person goes to Hope Village, they'll have to pay."

"That must be quite a bit of money, right?"

"Indeed!"

"They really are generous!"

"So, we can go take a look."

"Let's go."

"..."

Instantly, quite a few people directly accepted the so-called "vacation task" and headed to Hope Village through the Task Center.

For Hope Village, which also belonged to the Blue Star Territory, the majority didn't feel much pressure—after all, most there were fellow countrymen.

Most importantly, the Task Center provided a certain level of security for mercenaries.

With this double assurance, they naturally felt at ease.

Meanwhile, in Wenxia Village, just a wall away from Ningshan Village, the same scene unfolded.

Brothers Jin Jingshan and Jin Jingxia also received continuous notifications of their territory mercenaries heading to Hope Village to undertake tasks.

[Your resident Yu Liqun has accepted a task to Hope Village.]

[Your resident Sun Yushan has accepted a task to Hope Village.]

[Your resident Ren Ruorui has accepted a task to Hope Village.]

[...]

Seeing that over a hundred people had gone to Hope Village in a short time, the brothers felt the allure of being number one.

If their territory was already like this, would the flow of people to Hope Village from other territories be even more continuous?

However, Jin Jingshan had no other thoughts. It was the strength of Hope Village that earned them the top spot; they were simply outclassed.

"Brother, shall we go take a look at Hope Village together? I've been waiting for them to open up, always wondering when they would," said Jin Jingxia, barely able to hold back his enthusiasm.

"Of course," Jin Jingshan responded without hesitation. "I heard that in this Territory War, Hope Village faced an aggressive territory. Such territories usually plunder the resources of the entire territory. We might be targeted as well, so we need to prepare early. Since Hope Village has gone through this, maybe we can learn some information from them. Also, I'm curious about what this territory is really like."

He had learned about the aggressive nature of Hope Village's opponent from the natives; he had employed some native Professionals at a high price to get more information about this world and prepare in advance.

So far, employing these people had proven worthwhile; they could get a general idea about any information they wanted, and if not immediately available, new information would follow soon.

Aside from that, it was pure curiosity about Hope Village.

They had also made contact with some territories around them, including some Blue Star territories. Relatively speaking, he was quite confident in his own territory, yet under these conditions, Hope Village had still managed to leave them far behind.

"Shall we go right away?" Jin Jingxia asked impatiently.

"Yes, let's bring along some goods from here too," Jin Jingshan nodded.

Since Hope Village dared to invite people for a vacation, they must be confident that visitors would spend money, which meant unique products were likely available.

Going to Hope Village, aside from spending money, they had to bring back some revenue!

Managing a territory incurred many expenses, especially now with an increasing population.

"Okay." Jin Jingxia nodded, and at last, they would see Hope Village for themselves.

Shortly thereafter, Jin Jingshan and Jin Jingxia organized their teams and set out towards Hope Village in the form of Mercenary Teams from their own territories.

Before they arrived, Zhou Bai on this side had already been bombarded by a series of system notifications.

[Mercenary Mao Mingzhe has arrived at Hope Village through the Task Center.]

[Mercenary Yu Lan Ying has arrived at Hope Village through the Task Center.]

[Lord of Xidong Village, Guo Yunxiu, has arrived at Hope Village through the Task Center.]

[Tabor Village Lord, Fu Wenlin, has arrived at Hope Village through the Task Center.]

[Pingmo Village Lord, Zhong Yuanzhou, has arrived at Hope Village through the Task Center.]
