Chapter 269: Chapter 167: Poaching Operation Continues_5

Excitement stirred!

Moments later, the people from the Mercenary Team had left, but after their departure, new groups entered.

The cycle repeated.

In less than a morning, the "benefits" of Hope Village had become the talk of Bengala Town.

Many lesser-successful mercenaries were already itching to move.

Eventually, this piece of news reached Charlot and others’ ears.

Today, most of Charlot’s time was spent on selection.

It was his personal character; to enjoy, he had to finish his duties first, only then could he relax completely.

However, while he was busy selecting, he didn’t forget to have his subordinates inquire about Hope Village.

After his subordinates had gathered the information, they naturally shared it with Charlot and the others.

Hearing this, Charlot laughed.

"This territory is really interesting!"

Since his arrival in this territory, every aspect of Hope Village had surprised him and, for him, they were indeed "surprises."

They presented a different view, unlike most other territories.

As of now, from the territories he knew, none had taken a path like this, and who knew where it would lead in the future?

Moreover, those few thousand emerging territories, were they all like Hope Village?

"Sir, I feel like Hope Village is using these unique things... to poach people? I heard that some other territories already have many settlers and a good amount of goods being sent back, bringing family members to relocate. It looks like, Bengala Town might lose quite a few people in this wave," one of the knights, Haus, couldn’t help saying.

"Yeah! If I were an ordinary mercenary and came across such a territory, my heart would also be moved," another knight chimed in.

Their future was definitely promising, so they would not be confused, but by putting themselves in their shoes for a moment, it was clear the temptation Hope Village’s policies had on common folk.

"The development of a territory needs people, the more people there are the faster the development, Hope Village needs people for its development, and what it needs to do now is naturally to attract a sufficient number of people, which is a normal behavior," Charlot said directly.

"Should we record this and report it?" Haus asked.

Their visit this time also had a purpose, which was to inspect the situation of these newly emerged territories.

Hope Village’s school, official selections, and other actions, were actually considered unconventional.

Hearing this, Charlot was silent for a moment, then said, "Just record it as it is."

Even if some actions of Hope Village were unconventional and might infringe on the interests of surrounding territories, it was still only a village now, and the Royal Capital wouldn’t take it seriously; even if the higher-ups learned of it, they wouldn’t think much of it, most likely just casually monitor whether there was potential to ally with.

If they failed to report truthfully and in the future Hope Village developed and strengthened, and the higher-ups discovered they had hidden some matters affecting their judgment about Hope Village, they would be doomed.

Although Charlot was very optimistic about the development potential of Hope Village, in the face of his own future, nothing else mattered.

Naturally, recording truthfully was the best; whether good or bad, it didn’t matter.

Moreover, he also had a vague feeling that the emergence of territories like Hope Village might bring some impact to the Human Clan Kingdom.

Whether the impact was good or bad would be seen in the future.

"Yes," Haus nodded.

While the Mercenary Team in Bengala Town was wavering over Hope Village, the earlier batch of merchant teams’ "poaching" actions had started unfolding with their arrival in their respective territories and the commencement of their goods sales.
