"Big Lily, where's Little Lily?"
"What's the matter, old Abel, little Lily is feeding the chickens in the yard." Big Jasmine was a middle-aged woman with a stooped waist caused by years of hard work.
Old Abel had a bright smile on his wrinkled face: "It's good news. The lord's castle is going to recruit new servants. I heard from Mr. Carter, the butler, that three servants, one maid and one kitchen maid will be recruited. Big Lily, little Lily can apply for a maid."
"Really, is the lord really going to hire a new maid? Is it true? That's great." Big Lili ran into the house, "I'm going to tell little Lily."
"Go, go." By the time old Abe finished speaking, Big Jasmine had disappeared. He shook his head funny and muttered, "I have to go back and tell everyone the good news. In the castle, every day What a wonderful life to be able to drink milk, the children are blessed."
Soon, all the 48 serf households in Damai Village got the news.
"This is really good news. I'm complaining that Malfoy doesn't have any more fields to plant, so he can only open up wasteland. He is strong, hardworking and capable. Apart from eating more, he can definitely be a good manservant." Work."
"That's not necessarily the case. Parker is more diligent and polite. I think he will definitely be able to apply for the job."
"Is the news true, the lord will recruit servants from the countryside?"
"Old Abel said it. He has been in the blacksmith shop for the past few days helping the lord make tools. Can there be any truth to what he said?"
"Old Abel has a good hand, but can he still lift a hammer?"
"He doesn't need to do it. There will be apprentices arranged by the lord to hit the hammer. Remember the lame Peter, he went to the blacksmith shop as an apprentice, and the lord paid a copper coin every day!"
"Isn't the blacksmith shop owned by an old drunk?"
"The old drunkard sold the blacksmith shop to the lord a long time ago, hehe, he sold three Nardas!"
"Three Nardas, my God, the lord is so generous!"
Good news always flies past everyone's ears like a bird with wings.
Little Lili, who was feeding chickens in the yard, blushed with excitement: "Mom, I... can I really apply for a maid?"
"It's the news from old Abel. He won't lie. Little Lily, you have to prepare well. As long as you can enter the castle, you can live a good life." Big Lily said happily.
"But... will the lord choose me?"
"Give yourself a little confidence, little Lily, you are the most outstanding girl in Damaitun, you are hardworking and capable, and you are the pride of your mother. Of course, you can take a step back. Your lord wants to recruit a maid and a kitchen maid. You can Go apply for a kitchen maid, you wash the dishes the cleanest."
"Well, I know how to do it, Mom." A look of determination flashed in Little Lily's eyes.
In order to live a better life in the future, she must show enough excellence and apply to be a maid of the castle. Without a father, her mother pulls her and her two younger brothers and lives in poverty. She has grown up and must share the burden for the family. The seventeen-year-old girl secretly clenched her fists.
…
In the blacksmith shop, Liszt watched several old blacksmiths and apprentices busy making iron blocks.
Relying on the black tulips to assimilate and trade the iron blocks, Liszt used them to make farm tools, and the first thing to make was fishermen's equipment.
With shovel, hammer and awl, with these three equipment, fishermen can harvest seafood.
The seafood resources on the east coast of Huahua Town have not undergone any exploitation and have not suffered any pollution. The abundant shellfish and crabs can be easily caught without any superb skills.
"Mr. Galtai, has the selection of fishermen already started?" Liszt took the handkerchief from Marcus and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
He is used to being served by his personal servants, as long as there is no physical contact, it is still very enjoyable to have someone serve tea and water.
Gao Ertai could only take out his handkerchief to wipe his sweat: "Your request has been conveyed, and the clerk is doing propaganda in every village. The fishermen only accept the elderly, women and some children who have not yet grown up."
"That's right, that's it. It doesn't take much physical strength to catch the sea, but patience. It is a reasonable allocation of human resources to let farmers with inefficient farming go to catch the sea. But you must do a good job of publicity, and poisonous seafood cannot be touched. , Raw seafood cannot be eaten.”
The medical and health means in this world are extremely underdeveloped.
Nobles practice fighting qi and rarely get sick, so they have no motivation to study medicine. Liszt also doesn't understand medicine. All he can do is to let the citizens take precautions first - pay attention to hygiene, drink boiled water, and eat cooked food.
"It's their luck to meet you, Liszt, you have a unique charm." Gao Ertai said flatteringly.
Ordinary young aristocrats, if they are praised for a few words, they will probably be in high spirits. Liszt is the soul of an adult, and his three views have matured long ago. It is impossible to be confused by a few words. He just ordered: "Don't stop making ironware, but don't let a few blacksmiths get tired. Their wages have been adjusted from 5 coppers to 6 coppers, and apprenticeships have been adjusted to 2 coppers."
Miscellaneous apprentices get 1 copper plate a day.
The master of the hammer, 5 copper plates a day.
This is the salary Liszt offered before, which is relatively high. Now the rich and powerful baron no longer bothered to exploit the few copper coins of the common people.
You know, the red blood sword on his waist is worth one or two thousand gold coins.
That is hundreds of thousands of silver coins, or more than ten million copper plates.
Besides, the entire Huahua Town is his, and the people who lead the people have money, which is no different from his own money-he can adjust the tax rate at will, and collect taxes as he wants.
"Six copper coins a day, well, what a lucky blacksmith." Gao Ertai muttered.
Then he walked into the blacksmith's casting room and shouted loudly: "Gentlemen of blacksmiths, the lord has just decided to increase your wages from 5 coppers a day to 6 coppers a day, and apprentices can also get 2 coppers a day. Good!" Work, Lord Lord's generosity is beyond your imagination!"
"Wow!"
"Six coppers a day?"
"Long live the lord!"
"Praise the lord, old Jack will forge a lifetime of iron for the lord!"
"Apprentices can also get 2 copper coins a day, my God, my parents will be so happy."
There was laughter and laughter in the blacksmith shop, and the complaints about the stuffy heat dissipated, and everyone worked hard to repay the generosity of the lord Liszt.
Hearing the cheers inside, Liszt shook his head.
He may be benevolent and unwilling to oppress the serf class, but why not use a little profit to drive the production efficiency of the serfs. Compared with squeezing, he prefers to create, rationally allocate production resources, and vigorously improve work efficiency, so that he can make perfect use of the town's population of less than 2,000.
"Master, are you going back?"
"Go to the tailor shop and take a look at the gloves, towels, and masks made for fishermen. I hope they are all qualified products." Riding on the fire dragon horse, Liszt lightly raised his whip.
