Chapter 540 - 343: Top-class Chef, Specializing in Monster Cooking (5K)_2
Viscounts, marquises, and dukes receive the same treatment here. In Tianyuan Territory, territory citizens, regardless of past identities, must rely on their own abilities to strive for better treatment.
And this middle-aged man who calls himself a baron has only a white-tier attribute, not even qualifying as an SR talent.
Of course, even if this person were talented, Mu Yuan had no intention of employing him.
A flawed character and insufficient loyalty mean the higher the position, the more trouble he may cause.
A baron from a fallen minor nation was dragged away, facing a life as a miner. Sewing machines? No chance, that's a quality profession.
Such minor incidents were few and didn't stir up the slightest ripple.
The work of accepting refugees proceeded methodically.
City Lord's Mansion.
Mu Yuan opened the panel, scrolling through batches of information on newly accepted territory citizens.
When refugees were 'recruited,' their statuses transitioned from refugees to Tianyuan territory citizens, making their information accessible.
However, the majority of the refugees' information was very basic, with just a name and their gender, male or female.
These are the common territory citizens.
A few citizens have some simple white-tier attributes.
"Herb Identification," "Leatherworking," "Hunter," "Brewing," "Lock-picking Proficient," "Corpse Stitcher," and so on.
These are ordinary talents, possessing vocational skills in a certain area or some natural advantages, such as innate strength or swimming ability.
Some refugees arrived with professional ranks like Spearman or Archer, which also placed them among ordinary talents.
Lord Shepherd naturally valued the former more.
Crafts such as brewing or herb identification could be acquired through learning, but it required a learning process. They couldn't compare to technical talents who could start working immediately. Moreover, ordinary people who wanted to learn still needed teachers skilled in the relevant crafts. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
Ordinary talents were not few in number; they were the foundation of a territory's management and construction.
In contrast to ordinary talents, SR talents were much rarer. Half a day had passed, and Mu Yuan had only encountered four.

"Herb Expert," "Pharmacist"
"Forging Proficient"
"Alchemist"
"Senior Forging Master"
These talents possessed green-tier attributes, indicating they had high proficiency in a certain field or had entered a profession involving supernatural elements.
These talents were already industry leaders in small territories, capable of forming and leading a team.
But they were few in number.
First, reaching a high level in any field was challenging, and such high-level talents were rare. Second, people at this level of talent often had fairly high status and were not so easily reduced to refugees.
Finding high-level talents among refugees was naturally difficult.
SSR talents were those with blue-tier technical attributes or blue-tier talents and Superior Grade professional ranks.
These were the top talents that could possibly emerge in the recruitment of refugees.
Purple-tier attributes? They did exist but would not be found among refugees. Lords couldn't recruit purple-tier individuals even at the Festival Grounds, let alone during the recruitment of refugees.
However, as half a day went by, not a single SSR talent had turned up.
Mu Yuan wasn't too surprised.
When Master Li first came to Tianyuan Territory, he was just an SR talent, at most distinguished by his higher aptitude within the SR rank.
After years of constant toil and year-round work, Master Li's forging skills had improved significantly. In terms of technique, he could be considered SSR level.
Top talents with blue-tier technical attributes were, perhaps, even rarer than Superior Troops.
The first 24 hours passed quickly.
Minor battles erupted occasionally to the north of Wolf Head Mountain, and the Soul Sand Mine base faced one Monster Tide assault.
It was lively outside.
But Tianyuan Territory and the surrounding area for miles were enveloped in the Night Hidden Starry Sky Array. It was quiet, peaceful, and harmonious here— not a single monster hair in sight.
For the moment, at least.
"A whole day has passed, and a total of 6,322 refugees have been received, which is excellent."
Mu Yuan was very satisfied.
This meant that the territory's promotion was soon to come.
As the first Refugee Recruitment Coupon came to an end, Mu Yuan immediately started using the second one—he did not use all three at the same time, fearing that their effects might not stack. Even if they did, an influx of too many refugees at once could lead to insufficient manpower.
Teams took turns working around the clock so refugee acceptance continued non-stop.
Amidst all the hustle and bustle, the second 24 hours flew by.
This time,
"Only 4,986 refugees were received. It seems the effect of the Refugee Recruitment Coupon has significantly declined."
"But..." he glanced at the panel count, "this should be enough, right?"
Please don't let me fall a few hundred people short in the end!
He continued to use the third Refugee Recruitment Coupon.
Sunset, sunrise.
As dawn arrived, the flow of refugees seemed to increase significantly, and a long line formed outside the south city gate, bustling with excitement.
In the distance, refugees approached slowly, gathering like grains of sand into a long river.
Suddenly, some refugees ran to one side in terror, trembling and not daring to take another look at the main road.
"Is there a monster?"
Lu Liu, who had been monitoring the area without sleep for the past three days and two nights, noticed the situation here immediately.
He cast a glance in their direction.
And looked away again.
It wasn't a monster, and no one was causing trouble. The new arrival... just looked a bit more fierce and intimidating.
