With Dick's current prestige in the No. 12 Rookie District, if he said that he wanted to recruit villagers, probably any Green-Hand Villages would be willing to be recruited.
Dick planned to go to other Green-Hand Villages to recruit villagers tomorrow morning. Of course, the Green-Hand Village he wanted to recruit must be united and kind-hearted. He didn't want to set a fox to keep the geese.
Second, he didn't want to consider the Green-Hand Village which was too weak. Don't forget that this was the world of killing, and the companion of a wolf could only be a wolf!
What he wanted was a teammate who could move forward together, not the drag on him!
He was not a philanthropist. Recruiting those weak Green-Hand Villages would only be a hindrance to them. He didn't want to waste time on these Green-Hand Villages to collect low-level materials at a critical moment.
