After the exile, the Goddess of War became a group favorite

Chapter 137 Recruitment

Old man Wu is in a very bad mood today, and today his eldest son has no further dating. He is in his sixties, and he hasn't hugged his grandson yet, so worried about him, wishing he could drown that rebellious son.

"Father, what are you looking at me for?" Seeing his eyes, his naughty son said angrily, "It's not that I don't want to, the girl thinks our family is too poor."

Hearing this, old man Wu immediately became wilted, and muttered: "In Rongcheng, besides the county magistrate and the city lord, how many people are rich? Even the big landlord doesn't have much money."

His rebellious son nodded sharply, and agreed: "Yes. And there are not many workers in and outside the city, and the wages are low. The most expensive docks and boulders are twenty cents a day, and we still can't stand in the queue. ,Eh……"

"Brother Erzhu, do you want to go to work?" At this moment, the young man Xing hurried in, "Let's go, Licheng is recruiting workers, fifty cents a day, and one meal."

"..."

"..."

"What did you say???" After being stunned for a long time, the father and son came back to their senses, looked at the visitor with the expression of seeing a ghost in daylight, Erzhu frowned and asked, "Qiangzi, what are you talking about?" ? The place in Licheng is worse than ours, how can it be possible to recruit workers, and you pay fifty cents a day, and you are pissing off your brother!"

Qiangzi rolled his eyes, "When did I lie to you? Now the city is going crazy, and the document is pasted at the gate of the yamen. Many people have gathered at the gate of the city. Do you want to go or not?" I can go first, so as not to lose my seat in a while."

"The whole city knows?" Er Zhu asked with a puzzled face, and when he saw the other party nodding, he hurried out the door, "I don't believe it, I'm going to see it."

As soon as he walked out the door, he saw several young people running past him. One of them was still his boy, and he only had time to wave his hand before running away. From a distance, he heard them say while running:

"Licheng recruits workers for fifty cents a day. I have to notify my family as soon as possible."

"I want to call my children and daughter-in-law, fifty yuan, and a little more wages for one more person."

"Hey, Big Brother Liu, are you going to work, hurry up, pack up and go."

More and more people ran past him. They called for friends, wives and children and started packing dry food.

There was also the sound of tinkling from the next room, and Erzhu hurried over to look, and saw his friend Zhang Jiazi rushing out with two pancakes in his left hand and a six-year-old child in his right, followed by his strong daughter-in-law .

"Jiazi, what are you doing?" He asked wonderingly.

When Zhang Jiazi saw him asking, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Brother Erzhu, this city is recruiting workers. We have to go quickly and find a job. It's fifty yuan a day. What's the matter with our family, we also have ninety yuan a day?" Wen Qian said."

The corner of Erzhu's mouth twitched, and the old man Wu who came out from behind looked at their outfits and asked, "Do you really believe it, what if it is fake? You are not afraid of being deceived."

"How can it be, the documents are pasted at the gate of the yamen, and the county magistrate's seal is also stamped on it, so it cannot be faked.

Hey, Brother Erzhu, Uncle Wu, let's not tell you, let's go first, there are too many people going, I'm afraid I'll run out of places if it's too late. "Speaking, he squeezed out with his wife and children, and locked the door behind him.

Erzhu watched him run away in a hurry, then looked at the people in a hurry on the street, he couldn't help clicking his tongue, turned his head and said to old man Wu: "Father, I'll go and see, if it's true, I'll talk to you when I come back." explain."

"Okay, you go." Old man Wu nodded, going to see if there is no missing piece of meat, there is nothing wrong with it.

As soon as Wu Erzhu left, Wu Li walked out of an old man on the opposite side. He was carrying a cloth bag full of carpentry supplies, such as scorpions, ink fountains, and carving knives.

Wu Erzhu looked puzzled and asked, "Old man Chen, you are over 60, are you going to work in Licheng? At your age, can they ask for it?"

"You don't know that." Old man Chen smiled and patted the cloth bag on his body, "The recruiter said that they also want those with skills, and it's only a penny a day, hehe, they are popular, let's go .”

A penny! ! !
Old Man Wu looked at the cloth bag on Old Man Chen's back, and then at himself who knew nothing, hiss, it's annoying! ! !
No, he has to learn some crafts, in case people want people in the future.

He can't be behind no.

At the same moment, the city lord of Rongcheng looked at the crowd pouring out of the city gate and couldn't help sneering: "Hey, they are all idiots. Really think that the newly appointed city lord Lu in Licheng has money to send to you? Dreaming."

"My lord," a man next to him who looked like a master came forward, cupped his hands and said, "Isn't it good that these people have left too much? There is no one farming the land of our rural households."

"Oh, what's the problem? It's not like they won't come back. Can't the one surnamed Lu help you raise them? How much food can we save in Rongcheng.

As for that land, the tax is paid during the autumn harvest, so what does it matter to us if they can't pay it?Don't worry about those who can get in, and let them pay for those who can't. "

Hearing this, the eyes of the master-like man suddenly lit up, and he said with a flattering smile: "My lord is wise."

Such things happened in several towns around Licheng, and more and more people left their villages.

Nearby places, such as Rongcheng, a town with only a few tens of miles, people plan to go there on the same day, and those farther away, they bring a change of clothes and plan to live there permanently.

Fifty Wen a day, there are two taels of silver in a month, and board and lodging are also included. Who wouldn't go to such a good thing.

All idle labor forces in nearby cities were mobilized, and special talents were recruited at the same time, such as engineering supervision, town planning, carpentry, craftsmen and other outstanding talents.

Especially those who understand hydrology can get nearly five taels of silver every month. Who would not want to do such a good job.

A large number of talents flocked to this place, and at the same time, a large number of goods that Lu Anran ordered from the merchants began to arrive one after another, but because of Chu Yiheng's barrier, it was not easy to pass through.

But the merchants couldn't resist Lu Anran's willingness to give money, the goods brought in that day were all settled on the same day, without delay at all, they like to do business with such people.

At the same time, all kinds of materials need to be continuously supplied to this place, and the price is generally [-]% higher than the market price. Who would not do such a profitable business, let alone [-]%, even [-]% Do it, as long as it is linked to silver, do it.

When Lu Li's brothers and twenty dwarf warriors came to the Golden Gate Pass, they couldn't help being a little confused. Who can tell them why there are so many businessmen and passers-by here?
More than in Xuancheng, what happened?
With such doubts in mind, they rode horses and dogs and walked out of the pass slowly with the flow of people.

"What did you say? Dwarves?" Wei Xin's eyes sank after hearing the report from his subordinates.

"Yes, there are a total of 24 people. Except for the four I saw in the criminal village, the other 20 people are very strong, very much like the legendary dwarf warriors."

After listening to his subordinates, Wei Xin's whole face darkened. Could it be that the Lu family has won the allegiance of the dwarves?
No, I have to send someone to inquire about it.

As soon as he waved, a person came behind him, and he said, "Zhou Quan, you go there to work as a worker, and see what's going on with the dwarves."

"Yes." Zhou Quan cupped his hands and walked out the door.

On the other side, Lu Li and the others were eager to go home, so they rushed to Licheng in less than an hour.

When he arrived in Licheng, his eyes widened immediately.
