《Rise of America 1620》Chapter 5: Loyalty Bonus
Advertisement
William picked up a small branch from the side and drew it on the ground.
Within a short time, he had traced the shape of the eastern coastline of the United States from his memory.
"If only I could buy a map of the 21st century, but I'm not good enough now, or I'd be a lot less busy. William thought to himself with a sigh.
Yes, now his level is not very high, so many products that can be purchased in the 21st century are not open to licensing, which makes him a little disappointed.
Nowadays, the livelihood products are only open to poor quality pig iron-type knives and axes and pots and pans farming tools, at most some rice seeds.
Even now, he could not even buy salt.
But still, even if it is iron products, the Indians can also be exchanged for furs, so they can continue to trade smoothly.
But this kind of trade is really single, he must open up financial resources to do so.
Looking at the attribute column, William did some calculations in his mind.
The military product was still a long way off for him, and it would cost him a lot of money to buy 12 Genestealers.
Now he has insufficient money on hand.
But the good thing is that the cottage option can reproduce the 17th-century firearm, but this kind of gun is heavy and not good, while the accuracy is not the first choice.
But the cottage option can be invested, as long as the investment of a 3 million dollars, then the system can automatically generate a flintlock production line, and comes with paper ammunition.
3 million ah, William now all the funds, are invested in the manufacture of genetic man.
So, the flintlock will have to wait for a while before it can be manufactured.
However, as long as there is a place to live, firearms, which he does not see, can be sold to the Indians.
William was in the Andal tribe during these three months, but the French can use a firearm to exchange for a pile of furs equal to the height of the gun.
This kind of trading is really too profitable.
Oliver, Daniel, and Steven, the three genetic men, saw the chief draw a map on the ground and then lost their concentration they were not.
"Chief, what's on your mind?"
Finally, it was Oliver who dared to ask a question, which brought William back to his senses.
"Oh, no, I was a little distracted just now. The first thing that happened was that William blushed with embarrassment as his thoughts were pulled back. He scanned the faces of the three Genestealers beside him and saw that they were looking at him with bated breath.

"Chief, what is this map?" Steven asked in a jarring voice.
"Look." This is the Quebec City that the French-built more than ten years ago, and this is the St. Lawrence River basin that connects to Lake Ontario.
Following the point of the branch in William's hand, the three genetic men looked down.
"We should be in the 21st century between Quebec and Montreal, and near the St. Lawrence River.
William's judgment was not surprising, because there was indeed a river three kilometers north of them. That's where the beavers hang out in large groups, and where the Andale and Moclai tribes fight over each other.
"This area has become a battleground, except for the Mokrai tribe. I think there are other tribes involved in this battle in the future. The French have no good intentions.
Oliver and the three of them listened and nodded secretly.
They were all convinced by William's judgment as a leader.
"We are still too weak to get involved. The company's main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the public. He did not have this in mind, after all, the monopoly of the fur trade is also good for him. But now he has a "magic weapon", but the level is not enough without weapons of mass destruction, he is really not qualified to get involved.
And his manpower is also insufficient, with him alone that is not possible.
William said, a branch in his hand, on the map of the east side of a point.
"So, we must move south and find a foothold on the eastern coastline of the American continent. The company's expression is very serious, "You are right, this place in New York is not.
Daniel at this time opened his mouth and said from the map drawn by the chief, this distance is still very far away ah.
He said, William nodded and said yes, I estimate that there are more than 1300 miles. But we have to go there because it's definitely suitable for us to stand.
As for the reason, the three genetics did not ask, the leader William has already made a decision then they carry it out.
Although they were an able-bodied genetic man with a 21st-century education, they had been forcibly indoctrinated by the system to be loyal, so they would not object.
"So that's it, let's go to New York and get a foothold!"
William stood up and shouted ambitiously to his three men.
"Yes, sir!"

Oliver and his men stood up and answered in one loud voice.
William and his men did not salute, so after making their decision, they left the hill and headed south.
Although the road is a bit distant, the road does not have to worry about food and drink. Some junk food can be purchased in the Time Trader.
Although not good, not to starve to death.
Now there is no condition to enjoy, William and they will not be picky, we all understand this point very well.
The four figures, lost in the dense forest in the south, do not know what the future of America will become.
History, from this moment onwards, towards an unknown development.

It was already two months later.
At this time, the American continent has entered the winter.
The sky was filled with goose feather snow, and the four of them trudged through the waist-deep snow with great difficulty.
On the way, William saw the attribute columns of his three men.
He was surprised to see that the last item had a bonus.
A high level of loyalty is a good thing, it means the chance of mutiny is very low and his safety is guaranteed.
This can't help but make William feel glad for his initial choice, he even secretly thought that if he had chosen the European-American race or the Eastern-European race, he would have been republican or even subjugated by now.
And he also read the attribute column.

Motherfucker!
After reading the attribute bar, William cursed in a low voice.
However, he could not change it.
The winter of 1620 was much colder than the 21st century.
There was no "greenhouse effect" in this era, let alone a "warm winter".
For three months, even William did not know where they had gone.
In these three months, they did meet a lot of Indian tribes. But the idea of a little, they did not contact these Indian tribes but went around the way away.
Yes, no, the day rash contact with these Indians will get into trouble. So it's better to hide a little bit, so it's safer.
After coming to this era, William can say that nothing is smooth.
The only thing that comforted him was that he was getting much younger.
Fifteen years old, which means he has twenty years of life left.
"The chief, there are a lot of coyotes around, are we going to camp here?
Oliver came along at this time and whispered to William to report the situation nearby.
"Damn, there are so many coyotes here!
During this journey, the number of coyotes on the American continent really opened William's eyes, is simply everywhere you go.
In fact, William knew that coyotes would be extinct in the next three hundred years because European settlers and Americans did not like them.
"Chief, I've observed. These coyotes are solitary, they don't have pack habits, so we're relatively safe," Oliver said.
Oliver said.
William looked up at the sky, which was still bright, and shook his head, "It's still very early, let's keep going. You guys are not tired, if so we rest a little it does not matter. The snow was waist-deep, and the trek took a lot of time and effort, so William thought the three men might be a little tired.
Oliver shook his head we are not tired, but the chief you are young, we are afraid that you can not bear ah. Oliver's face was filled with a look of concern.
And Daniel and Steven also echoed one after another.
From thirty-six years old to fifteen years old William, in these three men look completely needs to protect the little brother.
This makes William touched at the same time, but also has some funny helplessness.
Suddenly, Steven became alert.
"There's someone in front of me!"

Tales of the Legendary Scholar
They meet in the most unlikely moment and turned their life around. Freidrech newly arrived in his own nation's capital city, which is so foreign to him compared to his village's idyllic and nondiscriminatory atmosphere, after he is forced to come. Now, he is facing a royal prince and tells him to bow. This draws out one of his late father's teachings from the deepest recesses in his mind. "The blood of your great ancestors runs in your veins. Don't easily bow down to anyone, or accept suppression by any being, not even from a monarch, unless you pledge your allegiance to him. Also, giving in to oppression is directly telling the oppressor that you're easy prey and open for manipulation." He is uncertain on how to face this oppression right now. Will he bows or not? What will he do to uphold his father's words while keeping his life safe? As for the prince, Theodrech has nothing to do with Freidrech, so he wishes to let this slip, but the boy opens his mouth and proposes the most ludicrous challenge he ever heard and triggers his curiosity. "I, Freidrech Goederf Gerboud, son of the late Village Chief Louvel Gerboud of Wrilon, will challenge you, Your Highness, to a battle of riddles… If you win, I will not only bow but be your servant for the rest of my life." This amuses the prince. It is the first he met a boy of the same age who is not intimidated by the air of authority he projects. Rather, this boy challenges him. "Why are you so headstrong? In fact, bowing to me is an honor. You saw the King's noble Knights. When they saw me, they bowed," says Theodrech, testing Freidrech. "Allow me to be forward, Your Highness. For me, bowing to a monarch does not guarantee loyalty. If I were you, I rather have men who stand straight in my presence but who got my back, than bowing men who are dreaming of my death," replies Freidrech. The prince’s curiosity increases. A huge smile is seen on his face. Prince Theodrech decides to take Freidrech under his wing. Little did they know, this boy who Prince Theodrech takes in as his confidant and friend in the most ridiculous fashion is someone indispensable in his life and the one who can help him succeed the throne when he almost believes he has lost. Thus, the Tales of the Legendary Scholar begins. ------ o ------ Old Synopsis: A famous ancient adage stated, behind a successful man is a woman BUT… In these lands, the monarchs are seeking not a woman to stand behind them but the man hailed as the Legendary Scholar.
