Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong

Chapter 20: What's the Experience of Hiring 10,000 Workers?_1

"Meat! I saw meat! Long live Master Leo!"

"So scary, 200 units in one go! Master Leo, pray that you don't meet me, otherwise, I'll have to kneel down and sing 'Conquest' to you on the spot!"

"The right way to flatter a big shot, low EQ: Long live the big shot! High EQ: Kneel down and sing 'Conquest' to the big shot!"

"You guys really have too much free time, the meat is about to be all snatched up, and you still have the mood to boast here?"

"...Is it really that noisy? Fine, I'll leave, I'll leave! Hahahaha."

...

This time, it didn't even take 5 seconds for the 200 units of meat to be fully exchanged.

As one can see, just as Leo Ray had judged earlier, the market's demand for food was undoubtedly on the rise compared to yesterday.

"Damn, I missed out on 200 units of meat just by talking for a moment?"

"What's going on? Meat, where's the meat?"

"I just got up for fuck's sake! I feel like I missed out on a fortune!"

"Hahaha, the early bird gets the worm, this meat is so delicious!"

"As soon as I saw the meat, I clicked in immediately, super fast! But I still didn't manage to grab any! You animals, can't you leave a piece for an old comrade of 400+ months?"

"Hehe, I just exchanged for a piece of meat, but I ain't gonna eat it, just playing with it!"

"Big Brother Leo, can you please put up a little more meat? I haven't eaten for a day and a night (whining)."

"Support the young lady, request for more meat from the big shot +1!"

"Supporting the young lady twice, request for more meat from the big shot +2!"

...

Seeing this, Leo Ray smirked.

After the lords who had grabbed the meat had shown off a bit, the calls for more meat in the chat channel became louder and louder.

It seems that it was time for the Anonymous Bigshot to make his entrance and harvest a wave of leeks.

With the price being 2 hours of labor higher than yesterday, 2000 units of pork were directly listed for exchange!

[Trader: Anonymous]

[Trade item: Pig Meat 2000 units (Exchange 1 unit per time, 0.5kg per unit)]

[Required item 1: Stone (40 units)]

[Required item 2: Wood (80 units)]

[Required item 3: Thatch (160 units)]

This time, a piece of pork was equivalent to 8 hours of work for an ordinary farmer.

Just exchanging for one piece would be enough to completely drain most of the lords' previously accumulated resources again.

But even so, in just over a minute, amidst the wailing in various chat channels, the pork that had doubled in price was once again quickly exchanged, and the demand outweighed the supply.

There's no doubt that although everyone knows that the price is absurdly high, food is a necessity.

If there isn't any, labor efficiency would drop greatly for the farmers working under them, and even lead to strikes, making the situation not worth the losses.

Most importantly, if you don't exchange, someone else will.

Those who exchange will not only have higher labor efficiency than you, but they will also flaunt their superiority in the chat channel, so can you endure that?

Therefore, under the influence of the "even if I can't catch up to the big shot, I must be better than others" mentality.

The smart ones complain in the chat channel on the surface, claiming they are determined not to exchange, but secretly, they click faster than anyone else.

Those who blindly jump on the bandwagon and genuinely don't exchange in the end, undoubtedly become the bottom-level scapegoats.

Of course, in Leo Ray's eyes, those who act cleverly and blindly jump on the bandwagon are essentially no different. The only difference is how quickly the leeks grow.

Soon after, Taylor, who had returned from his second hunt, arrived in front of Leo Ray with two even larger Mushroom-hitting Pigs on his shoulders.

[You have dismantled a Tier 1 Six-Star Demon Beast Mushroom-hitting Pig, obtained Pig Meat x2400, Pig Skin x50, Mushrooms x600!]

[You have dismantled a Tier 1 Six-Star Demon Beast Mushroom-hitting Pig, obtained Pig Meat x2600, Pig Skin x60, Mushrooms x700!]

Then, on his third trip, he brought back two more.

This scene made Leo Ray suspect that Taylor might have raided a pig lair.

[You dismantled a Tier 1 Six-Star Demon Beast Mushroom-hitting Pig...]

Just like that, the morning passed by in the blink of an eye.

With Taylor's continuous supply of meat, Leo Ray listed a total of 12,000 units of pig meat in the Trading Center.

In the end, he had exchanged an incredible 328,000 units of wood, 320,000 units of thatch, and 240,000 units of stone.

The amount of pig skin and mushrooms had also increased to 260 units and 3,100 units, respectively.

"It seems we won't be lacking these basic resources for a while!"

With a contented smile, Leo Ray closed the interface.

There's no question that if calculated based on 1 unit of pig meat per person,

this time, Leo Ray had made 12,000 other lords work 8 hours each for him.

This efficiency of collecting resources could only be described as terrifying!

After everything had been completed, Leo Ray looked around,

and noticed that after Gavin and the others' hard work that morning, the open space around the camp had expanded outwards quite a bit. With their loyalty raised to 80 points, their work efficiency had also increased significantly.

"Stella, tell everyone to take a break and prepare lunch."

Seeing that it was almost noon and the sunlight became increasingly scorching under the two suns, Leo Ray instructed the twin sister who had been by his side.

"Your will be done!" Stella saluted and vanished on the spot.

Not long after, wisps of smoke began to rise in the camp.

At the same time, Serena, who had escorted the merchant and mercenaries, and Taylor carrying two more pigs, returned to the territory one after another.

"Reporting to Lord, the escort mission has been successfully completed!"

Upon coming back, Serena immediately stepped forward to report: "Moreover, just as you expected, that cunning merchant did indeed ask, more than once, why we were also appearing in the forest.

I followed your instructions, casually mentioning that we were a noble from another country who came here for sightseeing, and did not reveal any flaws."

"Very good, go and rest first, I will build a separate house for you and Stella later."

Nodding in satisfaction, Leo Ray seemed to notice something, leaned forward slightly, and picked off a small leaf that had fallen on her hair.

"Thank... thank you, Lord!" This action made Serena's heartbeat soar to 120 bpm, her pretty face blushing adorably as she saluted and retreated.

After having a delicious meal of mushroom stewed meat with everyone,

and building a civilian house beside the Lord's Mansion for the twin sisters, Leo Ray clumsily practiced horse riding for a while with the horses that had been unloaded from the carriage.

Seeing that the time was just about right, Leo Ray couldn't wait to come to the storage space.

At this point, 1200 logging axes and 1200 sickles had just been made.

Undoubtedly, next would be the time to upgrade the Tier 4 Lord's Mansion!
