Chapter 160 summoned a large group of people.
Xuan Li naturally wouldn't stop Xia Gu, so in the end he could only let Xia Gu leave first, leaving the matter here to Xuan Li to handle.
Soon Xia Gu arrived at Eric's side, and Eric looked extremely happy.
"What happened to you? You look so happy. Do you have some good news to tell me?"
Xia Gu was just guessing; she was just hoping for this outcome, but she didn't really know what the good news was.
“I just convinced several homeless groups to join our tribe, so our tribe will have more and more people.”
Eric said this to Xia Gu with great confidence, hoping that Xia Gu would take the opportunity to praise him.
As expected, after hearing about this, Xia Gu reached out and patted Eric's head, naturally praising him for this.
"How are you so amazing? You recruited so many people so quickly. I don't have your ability. But how exactly did you convince them?"
Xia Gu was indeed very curious about this matter. If there were a better way, she could definitely recruit more people, and that would be no problem at all.
“I told them how many benefits there are here, and that they won’t have to worry about food and drink. They were all very willing to come. I told them that as long as they let me know, they can move in.”
Eric remained very proud and naturally hoped to promote this cause and attract more people, which would make Xia Gu even more satisfied with herself.
When Xia Gu heard about this, she frowned, feeling that the situation seemed somewhat worrying.
If this is how people are recruited, wouldn't they all be lazybones?
Even if Xia Gu doesn't have any prejudice against them, if in the end these people keep not working and keep wanting to take, then they still need to be properly disciplined.
"What's wrong, Xia Gu? Did I do something wrong? Do I need to correct it? If you need to correct it, just tell me. If you don't want them to come over, I can explain it to them properly."
Eric was indeed quite worried about this matter. If it really didn't work out, then he could only explain to those people that whatever happened, he would follow Xia Gu's lead.
"No need. Since these are people you recruited, I'm willing to let them come. However, there are indeed some rules in the tribe. Let's see if they can adapt. If they can't, then forget it."
"They have to rely on themselves for everything. After all, in this tribe, you can't just eat and drink without doing anything. As long as you make even a little bit of contribution, there won't be any problems. You should understand that, right?"
Xia Gu spoke with great conviction because even Eric, at least, had always been helping out, which was completely different from the situation.
"That's fine then." Eric didn't think too deeply about it; since the matter had already been resolved, that was enough.
Next, Xia Gu followed Eric to the group of wandering orcs. Sure enough, the orcs looked completely unkempt and were filthy.
Upon seeing this, Xia Gu was naturally very surprised, seemingly not expecting it to be like this, and really didn't know what to say.
"You must be that high and mighty goddess, right? I heard you've established a tribe and Eric has invited us to come. We'll definitely show our support and go."
"I hope everyone can live in peace. You probably won't expel us, will you?"
One of them, named Youlu, smirked and said those words to Xia Gu in a nonchalant manner.
Xia Gu felt uncomfortable after hearing this, but she didn't say anything on the surface, after all, she didn't want to embarrass Eric.
"Yes, after you go to the tribe, there will be people to arrange accommodation for you. You can fetch water and take a bath yourself. After all, it's better to keep your new house clean."
"At that time, I will arrange a livelihood for you according to your abilities. If you have fire in your hands and light in your eyes, you will naturally not have to worry about making a living."
Xia Gu was worried that they might be offended by the situation if she made things clear in advance, so she figured it was better to explain it clearly from the start.
That would at least be better. As for the rest, there's no need to say more. Everything will be just right anyway. If they didn't accept it, they would have brought it up now.
Sure enough, when they heard about this, they looked at each other in dismay. They thought they could have a life of plenty in the past, but now it seemed that there was no way to get those things without working.
"Eric, what's going on? Didn't you say we wouldn't have to worry about anything after we got there? Now we have to work? Doesn't that mean we're being forced into hard labor?"
Eric was naturally very indignant when he heard this. He never expected them to say such a thing, and the situation was not like that at all.
"What do you mean by 'hard labor'? Can you stop talking nonsense? Those livelihoods are very simple and easy. Anyone with a brain can do the hard work. Don't you have any brains to do that kind of work?"
"Besides, these things are all corresponding. Those who do more will inevitably get more. You can't keep being so lazy, living hand to mouth like this. Is that a good thing?"
Eric immediately put on a stern face, looking very displeased. They had no choice but to comply since they had already agreed, so there was no need to object.
They quickly arrived at the Xuanli tribe, surprised by the sudden influx of people. They were busy arranging accommodations for the inhabitants.
Everyone was very busy all afternoon, but things calmed down by evening because everyone was properly settled.
Xia Gu finally breathed a sigh of relief and leaned against Xuan Li, finally able to rest for a while.
As for Eric, he was still chatting with the group of wandering beastmen, trying to see if they had any work they wanted to do.
"Why hasn't Xue Lan come back yet? He's been helping out with the tribe's affairs these past few days."
