The Lord is Addicted in Infrastructure

Chapter 23



Chapter 22

On the open space outside the castle.

The craftsmen, taking advantage of the Lord Earl’s arrival, gathered together to chat in twos and threes, the expressions on their faces were filled with uncontrollable excitement and excitement, mixed with a little anxiety.

“I don’t know what kind of drawing is the best according to the standards of Lord Earl? I have done my best to draw…”

“I don’t have any hope for the position of the chairman of the craftsmen’s guild. After all, I know how many kilograms I have, but my workmanship is good. When I enter the craftsmen’s guild, it can’t be considered bad. Right.”

“Even if there is no hope, living in Lord Earl’s territory is better than living elsewhere.”

“Yes, fortunately I made up my mind to come, otherwise I will regret it later.”

They slowly began to talk about the benefits and changes since living in Fort Komoy.

Speaking of lowering taxes, life is a lot easier.

I also talked about the upcoming summer conscription. People who don’t want to be craftsmen in the family can consider signing up for the army.

Deve couldn’t help but look forward to it: “The soldiers who patrol the city every day are so majestic.”

“One team is wearing black armor, and the other is wearing white armor. I heard that they are the Black Cavalry and the White Cavalry led by Lord Fernandi Edward and Lord Walker William.”

“Furthermore, I have also heard from others that most of the soldiers who make up the Black Cavalry and the White Cavalry are actually slaves. After that, some soldiers in the two cavalry have accumulated enough merits to successfully escape. Slave status…”

Conrad smiled and listened to the younger son’s speech.

Darren couldn’t help saying: “We have been almost too busy for these two months, and we have very little time to sleep. When did you learn about these things?”

Diff murmured: “I’m not busy with my father and elder brother. I haven’t learned many things about engineering drawing, and I can’t help much…”

“When I have free time, I will naturally inquire more about the situation in this territory. To be honest, Lord Earl is really the best adult I have ever met!”

Conrad nodded in agreement, and exclaimed: “Praise the Lord Earl for his mercy and tolerance to the God of Creation.”

They didn’t talk for much longer.

Xia Zoe walked out of the castle.

Holding a list written on parchment in his hand, Udit was carried on the high chair as usual.

The craftsmen involuntarily quieted down in the open space.

Udit said: “After six days of screening, we have selected the best urban planning and layout design, and will appoint the owner of this drawing as the president of the Craftsmen’s Guild.”

“But those who are not selected need not be lost.”

“We will divide the four levels of ordinary craftsman, junior assistant engineer, intermediate engineer, and senior engineer in the craftsmen’s guild.”

“Some people who are good at drawing and urban design will be awarded the title of one of the three levels of engineers: elementary, intermediate, and advanced.”

“Of course, the money distributed within each month is different for each level…”

Before the words were finished, someone couldn’t help but speak.

“Excuse me, does the senior engineer get the most money?”

Youdi’s characteristic head: “Naturally it is true.”

“If you work hard enough, you will gain credit in future construction and your own abilities will be improved… Your level will rise.”

“Ordinary craftsmen are promoted to junior assistant engineers, junior to intermediate, and intermediate to senior.”

“If senior engineers have enough credit, they will be rewarded and issued a large bonus to encourage them. Junior and intermediate engineers will decide whether to issue bonuses depending on the situation.”

After this statement came out.

The emotions of the craftsmen were completely ignited, excited and high.

I thought it was just a competition that ended with the election of a president, but I didn’t expect that there would be a surprise.

Some people feel that it is impossible to become president at all.

But perhaps you should be able to look forward to getting the title of an engineer.

Udit calmed them down, and then said: “Now, Lord Earl will announce the contents of the list.”

The craftsmen couldn’t help but hold their breath.

Conrad clenched his fists nervously.

Xia Zoe unwrapped the parchment and cleared his throat, reading it as if it were the scene of an awards ceremony.

“Seven people got junior assistant engineers, namely Benson Nut and Chad…Five people got middle-level engineers, namely Payne Al and Eugene…Three people got senior engineers, they were Yin Liv Barna, Fagin Inris, Paul Snett.”

From the first word, Conrad anxiously waited to hear if he had his own name.

However, until the end of the last word, his name did not appear…

In an instant, a look of sorrow and frustration gradually appeared on his face.

However, at this moment.

Conrad only heard the Lord Earl continue to say: “The candidate for the chairman of the Craftsmen’s Guild is Conrad Brown, and he also won the title of Senior Engineer.”

It was as if a huge surprise hit Conrad Brown’s head suddenly, making him dizzy and stunned, even the soul seemed to float in mid-air without landing.

He seemed to be dreaming.

An extremely wonderful dream.

Darren and Diff were the first to react.

The two of them shook his body with excitement, and squatted and talked.

“Dad, daddy, you, you seem to be the president?!”

“Dad! Tell me, is this true?!”

Deve couldn’t help covering his mouth, he almost screamed.

After Xia Zuoyi stood on the chair and read the list, she waited with her little hand on her back and gave the craftsmen time to react.

After a while.

He whispered to Udit quietly: “It turns out that this Conrad Brown was brought back from Nilamor by Tyler and Barna. It’s a coincidence.”

After confirming the candidate for the president at that time, Walker spoke about what happened in Nilamori by the way.

Conrad Brown was oppressed in Nilamo’s craftsmen’s guild, and there was no room for his ability and talent to be used before he was invited by Tyler to come to Visas.

Xia Zuoyi whispered disgustedly: “The lord of Nilamor is not very good, and his actions are inferior. The people under him are not good and have bad morals.”

Can’t keep talent, deserve it.

Wait until the noise below gradually subsides.

Conrad covered his chest and finally digested this huge surprise.

Xia Zuoyi said: “Thorn Artisans’ Guild is the name of the guild to be built in Fort Komoy.”

“Some ordinary craftsmen who have not won the title of engineer don’t need to be discouraged. They focus on participating. Later, I will give you encouragement awards, each with 40 copper coins.”

Ordinary craftsmen can’t help but reduce the loss on their faces when they hear this.

Xia Zuoyi: “The chairman and the three-level engineers who just said the name come forward.”

Someone will be listed below one after another.

Conrad stood in the forefront under the arrangement of a knight, his heart beating violently.

Udit said: “The Lord Earl specially asked the engineer to make a badge representing the identity of the engineer, and the pattern on it is also the logo of the Thorns Craftsman’s Guild.”

“Senior engineers are golden badges, intermediate engineers are silver badges, and junior assistant engineers are iron badges. You need to wear them on your chest every time you enter the guild.”

“This is an identity and an honor.”

The logo of the Craftsmen’s Guild is a circle of black thorns surrounding the hammer and chisel.

Udit continued: “You will also be rewarded.”

“Junior assistant engineers will each distribute two silver coins, intermediate engineers will each distribute ten silver coins, and senior engineers will each distribute three gold coins.”

Compared with money, the rewarded engineer now cares more about the badge of status.

This is a high degree of recognition from Lord Earl of their abilities!

They couldn’t help feeling surging, unable to control their facial expressions, and many emotions kept surging in their chests.

—It’s really the right time to come here!

Ordinary craftsmen never expected that there would be badges.

At this time, I was really envious, and hated that I was incapable and couldn’t compare with others.

Conrad stood quietly and waited silently, because he knew it would be his turn in the end.

as predicted.

After the engineer’s badges are all issued.

Udit personally walked to Conrad’s side and said with a smile: “It’s time to call you President Brown in the future, please come in front of Lord Earl…”

Conrad’s limbs swayed stiffly, and he didn’t know how he got to the Lord Earl, and he even squatted to ask hello.

Xia Zoe smiled.

He took out a gold and silver badge and put it on the collar of Conrad on his chest, and said: “The reward for the president is ten gold coins, and you will get one for free in Fort Komoy. A house, you have the right to see me directly.”

Darren and Diff couldn’t help covering their mouths tightly, lest they lose face in front of the Lord Earl and embarrass their father.

But they really couldn’t help but want to be presumptuous, stomping their feet, ecstatic.

The others were even more uproar.

Sure enough, the benefits of the president are even more enviable.

Today’s announcement event ended with Conrad’s emotions overwhelming to tears.

The soldiers sent them back to Fort Komoy.

Not to mention the Brown family weeping with joy, and almost without sleeping all night, the rest of the people were also flustered, and their enthusiasm was mobilized like never before.

The plan to rebuild Wesas and Fort Comoy was carried out at the same time as the construction of the castle.

The soldiers are responsible for mining and transporting black ore.

Under the call of sufficient wages, many civilians and slaves in the two cities also actively participated in the construction, forming a construction team led by ordinary craftsmen or engineers.

Xia Zoe and the old financer Nick and Gibran worked together and found that the funds were still sufficient, but the manpower was greatly insufficient!

If there is not enough manpower to participate, the next five-year construction plan will be extended to seven years, nine years, or even longer before it can be completed…

How is this different from planning to become a bubble? !

“…”

Xia Zoe was silent for a long time, and sighed deeply: “Udette, we should go out to recruit (qiang) people.”

Komoy Castle has vacated such a large area, leaving too much waste, and rational use of land resources is the most correct!

Besides, Wissas is also a model of the city with few people, and another wave of people must be recruited to settle down.

Udit calmly said: “Earl, what do you prefer?”

He wanted to make arrangements as soon as possible.

Shazoeto thought with a small chin, “Except for the royal city of Kays, other nearby cities should try their best to promote it, and Nilamo will focus on it.”

“This time the propaganda also includes the neighboring country Gaynor. Fernandi is not suitable for the time being. Let Walker take someone there.”

“Yes, Lord Earl.”

The author has something to say:

Xia Zoe: It’s time to make a big splash! (Two more )
