In this era, mercenaries need to be hired, and the tasks of mercenaries have also developed from the original single combat mission to diversification, aimed at all walks of life.

The owner of high-end restaurants needs mercenaries to go deep into the barren mountains and rivers that ordinary people dare not go deep into, looking for those precious ingredients, and rich people need to hire bodyguards.

Of course, for most low-level mercenaries, they are engaged in promising professions, farmers in this era.

With the strong demand for various ingredients in the city, farmers are no longer humble generation names. Farmers who farm in the city need to study in professional colleges for several years, fully master the growth habits of crops, and maximize the cultivation potential of each piece of farmland to be competent.

In addition to wages, the most enviable thing for farmers is the rationing of agricultural products. Those white-collar workers working in the company do not see the seriousness of their hearts, but they have no oil and water in their stomachs like everyone else. They can’t even see the black steamed buns that never end from morning to night every day.

The better the farmland cares, the more agricultural products the farmers can get. Although it is not as big as fish and meat, at least the rice-growing homes eat white rice once a week, and cook a bowl of broth for breeding to help children nourish their bodies, which is still very common.

As for the farmers Ye Chuan was looking for in the Mercenary Alliance, they were not ordinary farmers, but a group of militants living in the wild.

The mercenary system is a major feature of this era. After all, the municipal government has no money to support so many troops, and the civilian armed tasks still require the civilian's own strength.

A large number of mercenaries are not without benefits for cities. Once a war occurs, a large number of civilian armed forces can be temporarily hired to the battlefield to make up for the disadvantage of insufficient military resources.

It is not difficult to become a mercenary. As long as you have some genetic power and a set of capsule armor, you can register in the alliance regardless of whether you have professional training or not. If you pay a membership fee every year, you will be considered a member of the mercenary alliance.

As the number of mercenaries increases, the number of tasks they receive is getting fewer and fewer. When the mercenaries who are of low level and cannot survive see that they will starve to death if they have no income. So, just go to farm outside the city!

After leaving the city, there is land that can be cultivated outside. As long as you are not afraid of fatigue or death, you can make a living as an armed farmer.

Therefore, a large number of low-level mercenaries established armed farms outside the city. Everyone was wearing armor and farming. After finishing their farm work, they had to patrol nearby. Once the mutant beasts attacked the farm, they had to pick up weapons to fight.

Although life in the wild is difficult, it is much better than starving to death in the city.

Assuming that you are lucky, the farm has successfully harvested several seasons of grain and sold it in the city, so that the whole family and the young can buy a small house and spend two years of food and clothing.

Thanks to these armed farmers opening farms outside the city. Although everyone has lived a difficult life in recent years, at least they survived. No matter how low their income is, they will have two bites of black steamed buns to eat, starving to death or eating people. They are rarely heard of now.

What Ye Chuan is looking for is these armed farmers. Among them, the bravest ones are no longer satisfied with the income from farming on the farm. They have changed their jobs to armed hunters. The price of buying things from them is cheaper than buying them directly from the mall.

The transaction hall was full of expensive high-level items. Ye Chuan had no money to enter the hall, so he had to try his luck outside the door, the armed farmers selling randomly.

Today, there are quite a lot of armed farmers coming to the city to trade from outside. Ye Chuan took a casual look and found that there were really a lot of good things. Needless to say, the food is more attractive.

A fat hare weighing five pounds was quickly bought by the owner of a high-end restaurant for 3,000 yuan. After processing and cooking, the rabbit's value increased more than twice.

After lit a cigarette, Ye Chuan was about to continue walking. At this time, the man selling rabbit suddenly said to Ye Chuan: "Little brother, borrow a cigarette to smoke."

Ye Chuan smiled, took out a phoenix card and handed it to the man, and handed the match to him, and said, "As long as you don't think it's too choking."

Ye Chuan's cigarettes are indeed not a good cigarette. They are thin and don't even have a filter. The tobacco inside looks like yellow leaves in autumn. After ignition, they have a pungent and spicy smell.

The man with thick eyebrows and big eyes took a deep breath and said with a smile: "In the past, every time I hit some valuable prey, I would buy myself a few boxes of good cigarettes to reward him, but now I am reluctant to let him go. My wife and children are all over the place to support me. Phoenix brand is very good, only four yuan per box, and even a little better one costs more than ten yuan. I can buy a lot of black potatoes."

Ye Chuan jokingly said, "I don't have my wife and children today. Besides, your rabbit can be sold for 3,000 yuan. Not to mention the black potatoes that cost three yuan per pound, even white flour that costs fourteen yuan per pound and rice that cost fifteen yuan per pound is enough for your family to eat for half a year."

The man with thick eyebrows and big eyes shook his head, "I have only had my wife and children recently, because I picked them up. I was fed alone and my whole family was not hungry. I did this life-threatening thing, and I was stolen up and had no worries."

"It's a pity that I met a woman in the woods. She was so hungry in the city that she pulled her two children to the wilderness for food. She was quite dead and she was not torn by the mutant beast."

"At first, I thought she was very pitiful. She threw two black potatoes for her. The woman didn't eat them, and she gave them all to her children. The two children were also miserable, with a pale face and thin skin. After eating the potatoes, she pulled my clothes with tears in her eyes and didn't speak. Later, the woman knelt down at me."

"I can't stand this. How can I marry a wife these days? After leaving this area, the number of women who pay one dollar each time is as much as they want. The woman is not pretty and has two scoundrels. It's a problem at first."

"I gritted my teeth and left, but the three of them followed me all the way back to the village. No acquaintance led outsiders to let them enter the village. The woman squatted outside the fence with her children. When the people in the village asked them to leave, they didn't leave, they just cried."

"At night, I tossed and turned in my hut and couldn't sleep. I thought that the girl outside was still with two children, how could she live in this wilderness?"

"I really couldn't bear it, so I opened the door and took the three of them into the village. I had been so cruel for so long. Unexpectedly, in the end, I, Xin Laowu, was still confused and accidentally got married."

Ye Chuan sighed softly. Life is difficult now, and it is lucky that the three of them can meet a kind-hearted person like Xin Laowu. Even if they are robbed and killed in the wilderness, it is very common. Almost half of the people who go out of the city because they are not full every year cannot come back.

"Fifth Brother, it's getting late. Why don't you go back quickly after selling it? The women and children at home are worried about it." A cigarette made Ye Chuan and Xin Laowu get along well with each other. He insisted that Ye Chuan call him fifth brother. In fact, according to his age, Ye Chuan should call him fifth uncle.
