Chapter 40: How can my people be hungry!

No wonder these people were shocked. Who had heard that the lord would pay the leaders for agricultural tools?
The land belongs to the lord, and the residents in the lands are also the lords fundamentally. With so many residents, who controls the lives of the residents?
As long as the tax is collected regularly, the lord will not care so much.
However, the lord Tang En was uncharacteristically. After taking office, he didn't search for it fiercely, but spread a lot of money out!
One thousand two hundred and thirty two households!
One gold coin per household!
That's 1,232 gold coins! In a word, throw it out!
Lord Lord, this is not to see gold coins as gold coins!
Everyone was shocked, and then, followed immediately by crazy cheers!
"Long live Lord!"
"Long live Tang En!"
An individual is all like crazy. Although this subsidy is only for farmers, in fact, Ellington's farmers are closely related to everyone and they are familiar with each other. Besides, the farmers' tools are changed, the efficiency is high, and the harvest is Well, the price of food will naturally fall by then, and they will also get tangible benefits.
Fiona looked at Tang En with a complex look. Although he did not understand financial management, he was very good at how to make the residents of the territory more united, especially in these short days. Almost all are beneficial to the civilian population of Ellington, which was almost unimaginable before.
When every lord in other places took office, the first thing to do was to erase the traces left by his predecessor, and then to strengthen the rule and strengthen the armed forces to suppress the rebels, but Tang En did the opposite. This is simply ...
But Fiona had to say that Down's method was very effective.
Just today's announcement of the acquisition of menthol made everyone in Ellington smile.
As long as you are willing to work, you can get income. Is there any more popular guarantee?
After more than an hour of busyness, Fiona and they all considered the acquisition of mints, but this is not the end. There are still many mints by the emerald river. I am afraid that they will not be collected within the next month.
"How many acquisitions have you made?"
"... More than two tons of mint."
Fiona flipped through the books before finding the unit.
Tang En raised an eyebrow: "Everyone got a kilogram?"
"No, there are only more than 400 people today, which is equivalent to each person collecting more than two kilograms. With today's news, tomorrow may usher in explosive growth."
Fiona's eyebrows frowned slightly: "Mint grass has been transferred to the warehouse, but it has already been collected. I'm afraid it won't be long. When can you make these into mints?"
"Who said it was made of mints?"
Tang En raised an eyebrow: "Extract the essential oil of mint first and then ... tomorrow you start recruiting temporary workers, I will train uniformly, and start working in the warehouse the day after tomorrow, ten silver coins a day, how about this price?"
"Ten silver coins a day !?"
Fiona suddenly raised her tone: "Even in Yalinks, ordinary workers don't have such high salaries! Five silver coins are enough!"
"Five silver coins?"
Tang En smiled: "If it was before, I am afraid they will still be very happy, but after today ..."
Fiona thinks about it too. Five silver coins is the income of five kilos of mint. You do n’t need to learn to collect mints. You just have to collect them. When you do n’t know if you can make money this afternoon, they have collected so much. Tomorrow They must not dig too hard?
"Ten silver coins, really not much, but this work can also be regarded as a technical job ..." Tang En groaned. "Limit the recruited workers to adults or teenagers. Give priority to those who are nervous and have nothing else. Means of livelihood. "
"Okay, how many people do you want?"
"Tentatively set ten, depending on how much mint grass can be received tomorrow ... Yes, take the time to make a document for the promotion of mint grass cultivation, telling them that purchasing mint grass is a long-term job, if you are willing to plant it, you can come The lord's government reported that they could allocate some land for menthol, and the tax could be lower appropriately. "
"I understand."
"Also, have the Guards calculated their reward amounts?"
Tang En still remembers that he assured the members of the guard that he would reward the gold coins after the bandits and bandits ended, but he was always busy after returning, and he threw it to Fiona and didn't pay attention to it.
"It's been calculated, and I'm planning to tell you."
Fiona sighed: "You spend too much money, so to speak, it means that thousands of gold coins have been spent, and they will be issued after the recruitment ends tomorrow."
"I think it's worth it, at least they are motivated now, aren't they?"
Tang En said with a smile: "And in the future, defending Ellington will also require them to contribute, and they want the horse to run, but not to feed the horse."
"It's enough to have you ..."
Fiona muttered, if all of Tang's strengths were revealed, who else would dare to come up with Ellington's idea?
"For the time being, I will work overtime at night to get the distiller out. I will move to the warehouse tomorrow. I will recruit good staff and start training."
"Ok."
Down had a trip to Edgar, and after getting some iron ingots back, he was immediately busy.
Not working overtime. After training them tomorrow on how to use the distiller, after determining the process technology, the acquired metal farm tools will be all ready. After the farmers' metal farm tools are started, Edgar and Brian will be instructed to start. Make a waterwheel.
The waterwheel is very important for current Ellington. If the water in the field cannot be replenished in time, the harvest of this year's bumper month is estimated to be horrible. In winter, it may kill many people-this can be Not alarmist.
The next day, when the news of Tang En recruiting workers was released, a bunch of people came to apply.
Not to mention that Tang En's salary is tempting, just working for the Lord Lord is enough to make them break their brains.
Fiona yelled, "Don't squeeze! Line up! Whoever squeezes will be disqualified!"
With an order, the following rows are neatly arranged immediately, and everyone does not want to lose this job opportunity.
"Master Lord has an order, because the venue has not been resolved, so only ten people are temporarily enrolled. In addition, due to the requirements of this job, the age is limited to 30 years old and 15 years old, and those who do not meet the rules can leave, and wait for the future The completion of the candy factory will increase recruitment again, and everyone will have job opportunities. "
Hearing this request, some people who had exceeded the standard had to leave, and those who stayed had not had time to be excited, and listened to Fiona again: "The Lord Lord also ordered, in order to help families in need, so This time, we will give priority to those who have a heavy burden in their homes and who are living in poverty. We will expand the enrollment in the future and then recruit them fairly. Please understand. "
Originally, Tang En thought that the second request would make these people quarrel, but what they didn't expect was that they really understood, and also offered to give out those who knew and lived in poverty.
This surprised Tang En.
After two rounds of screening, there are not many people left. After counting, there are 13 people, all of whom are women.
Prandall is very dangerous, so the death rate of men who go out often is high, and it is normal for women to have more boys and girls, and generally a man will find a way to make a living, and all that is left is these helpless women.
They are from the age of fifteen to their twenties. One of the most common characteristics is that they have thin yellow muscles, are very thin, and their clothes are very worn and full of patches.
Tang En recognized these people. They were the most active group in collecting mint grass yesterday. Now they still have bags in their hands. It is estimated that they did not collect peppermint because of recruitment.
After a while, Fiona came to Tang En with a look of embarrassment and said, "Master, these girls have very difficult lives, and they all need this job. It is difficult for me to remove three more people. Why don't you choose? "
Tang En is speechless, this girl, you do n’t want to be a bad guy, just let me be?
Don't you know that the employees are blaming the boss?
Even if the boss is not allowed to hide the rules without helping the pot, he will lose his job properly on the earth ...
Tang En stepped forward, and the 13 girls in front looked at Tang En with sullen expressions. They all knew that a word of Tang En could determine their fate.
With this job, they can have enough food, get dressed, and smoothly through the winter of this year. Without this job, it is likely that when winter comes, it will be their last day.
"you guys……"
Hearing Tang En's voice, the thirteen people were all nervous.
Tang En said very simply: "All have been hired."
"what?"
They were all taken aback by accident.
"Lord Lord ..."
A skinny little girl said timidly, "Isn't that just enrolling ten people ... if the Lord Lord is difficult ..."
"So," Tang En pointed to his nose, very seriously. "I am the lord. I say it. I said that there are only a few recruits. You are all hired.-Of course, if today ’s training fails Then don't blame me. "
"Ok!"
Thirteen people nodded fiercely, and wept with tears of excitement. If the Lord Lord gave them a chance and they couldn't grasp it, then they had to wait for them to die.
"Let's get ready for training ... that little girl, don't cover your belly, I heard it ring."
Tang En's words made the skinny little girl very anxious: "Sorry, Lord Lord ..."
Tang En was speechless: "Say sorry?"
This frightened the little girl. After a brief pass, Tang En knelt down: "I know it is wrong, Lord Lord, please forgive me! I need this job very much!"
"Well, forgive me for forgiveness, Tina, arrange breakfast for them! How can my people be hungry!"
The little girl stayed, looked at Tang En, and cried again.
Lord Lord, really a good man ...
