30: Job Change Scroll

Lin Yue walked out of the room. The sky was already faintly lit, and outside, everyone was enthusiastically holding a bonfire party, with laughter and joy everywhere, celebrating today's victory.

Xing Daorong did not go to rest; instead, he and Pan Feng gathered by a grill, competing in drinking and occasionally bickering, while brushing oil on the whole lamb, waiting for the meat to cook through.

Xing Daorong had eaten all the roasted meat earlier, so Lin Yue's stomach was still empty. He sat down beside the two of them.

"My Lord." The two tried to stand up and salute, but Lin Yue stopped them.

"No need for formalities. What are you two talking about?" Lin Yue was a little curious.

"Hmph, this fellow insists he didn't beat me because he was hungry, just trying to win with words!" Pan Feng said indignantly.

"It's true! My Lihua Kaishan Axe is not to be trifled with!" Xing Daorong retorted, not to be outdone.

"Is my Xuanhua Axe just for show?" Pan Feng stood up, ready to pull Xing Daorong out for a fight.

"Hmph, since My Lord is here, I won't stoop to your level. I'll fight you after I've eaten my fill!" Xing Daorong mumbled quietly.

"Just bring it on! My great axe is already thirsty for battle!" Pan Feng roared.

"Stop! You two will have plenty of chances to compete in the future; there's no need to rush it now!" Lin Yue advised. This Xing Daorong was truly a live wire.

When Pan Feng was with Feng Cai, they cooperated well, but when he was with Xing Daorong, it was non-stop bickering.

And Xing Daorong, even though he couldn't beat Pan Feng, his mouth never stopped.

Lin Yue didn't mind his subordinates sparring; in fact, he encouraged it, as long as they were united against external threats when it came to serious matters.

"My Lord." Feng Cai walked over to the three of them. Lin Yue turned and pulled up a chair, gesturing for him to sit down.

"Thank you, My Lord." Feng Cai respectfully bowed and sat down, his eyebrows relaxed.

"Eat some meat together." Lin Yue handed the meat that Xing Daorong had been eyeing for a long time to Feng Cai, leaving Xing Daorong with a look of resentment.

"Thank you, My Lord. I have a few matters to report." Feng Cai said after taking a bite of meat.

"Speak."

"My Lord, some of the basic buildings in the village are gradually being completed, but some special buildings cannot yet be constructed." Feng Cai thought for a moment and said to Lin Yue.

"What special buildings?" Lin Yue had become a hands-off manager after establishing the village himself and wasn't very familiar with this.

"For example, medical clinics, taverns, or some village-level Military Camps.

Actually, building medical clinics and taverns isn't difficult; the challenge lies in the scarcity of doctors and brewers, which the village naturally lacks.

So, I haven't built these structures, to prevent a situation where manpower and resources are expended, but the buildings remain idle." Feng Cai explained to Lin Yue.

He had honed himself in the Military Camp for half his life, and now as a village head, he understood the importance of timely reporting, to let his Lord understand why these buildings hadn't been constructed yet, to explain things in detail to his Lord, so that his Lord would be clear and avoid dissatisfaction.

One must know that the Military Camp isn't just about fighting; there are also many intricate dealings.

He had only understood this principle after many years and didn't want to take detours at his age.

"Are there talents in this area in Heye City?" Lin Yue asked.

Alcohol could relieve the villagers' fatigue, and if there was good wine, it could also attract outsiders, some of whom might be heroes.

The importance of a medical clinic was even more self-evident; villagers wouldn't have to endure headaches and fevers in daily life, and ancient plagues were terrifying, so more doctors could greatly reduce the damage from plagues!

In the game, the two were indispensable!

"I knew some military doctors in the Military Camp before, but they are older and all retired at home, but prescribing and dispensing medicine is still no problem. If My Lord thinks it's acceptable, I will go to Heye City tomorrow to invite them; I'm sure they won't refuse."

"As for brewers, there are also some in the city, but they all operate within the city, so inviting them might not be easy." Feng Cai explained in detail.

"For the doctors, do as you say. Is there no other way for the brewers?" Lin Yue asked.

"There is one more, which is to purchase a Profession Change Scroll."

"Some city Governments sell Profession Change Scrolls, which record various professional knowledge. After villagers use them, there's a high probability they will change to a special profession." Feng Cai said.

Lin Yue had also heard about Profession Change Scrolls in the forums. In the game, the Government recorded professional knowledge onto scrolls through secret methods, allowing players or NPCs to instantly gain in-game professional abilities. This was more convenient than the indigenous people passing down skills through generations or learning for many years, but the price was also more expensive.

So, not many people had bought them.

"Where are they sold?" Lin Yue asked.

"The Heye City Yamen sells them, and your merit points, My Lord, can also be exchanged for them." Feng Cai said.

"That's good. I was just wondering how to spend my merit points. Also, regarding the Beginner Military Camp, I'll go to the Heye City Military Camp to exchange for some."

Military Camp buildings are different from militia camps; they can only be exchanged for using merit points in the Military Camp, such as the Beginner Longblade Military Camp and Longspear Military Camp. After all, Great Qin would not allow villages to freely construct these troop types; only those who contributed to Great Qin could possess them.

"I've been watching the village's development these past few days. If you need anything, just tell me directly. I won't mistreat anyone who follows me." Lin Yue comforted him.

He clearly understood what Feng Cai was thinking, but he firmly believed in the principle of 'don't use someone you doubt, don't doubt someone you use.'

He also couldn't put all his energy into the village, so he prepared to give Feng Cai the maximum freedom, allowing him to fully utilize his abilities.

Feng Cai's smile broadened, and a weight was lifted from his heart.

"I will continue to recruit special talents among the refugees for Houjia Village and to share My Lord's worries." Feng Cai said.

"Good. I'll go to the Government this afternoon to exchange for some Profession Change Scrolls. You give me the required professions and quantities." Lin Yue said.

"Alright." Feng Cai was secretly delighted.

It was good to follow a baron. He had also learned about some village heads; sometimes, they were truly willing but powerless, with constant family rivalries in the villages. Having a baron's backing would undoubtedly be much better.

With a strong leader, the village's development would also be faster!

After the villagers finished eating the meat, they didn't choose to rest but immediately began a new day's work, which was very lively. Especially with the speed and scale of the village's development, Lin Yue was even more satisfied with Feng Cai.

This emotion also infected Lin Yue. The four of them walked around, carefully experiencing the village's rapid changes.

However, he discovered a problem, a very big problem!
