Chapter 678 - No need for oversight
Half a gold coin a day, that is, five silver coins, this is the price set by Su Mo after thinking about it for a long time.
It's a sky-high price for NPC paupers, but players may dismiss it, after all, players must have at least 100 real coins a day to pay for their labor.
A hundred dollars is at least fifty gold coins.
Su Mo couldn't give so much money to these poor people, the value of the two sides was not equal, and giving too much would not only be no good, but would kill them.
The paupers accepted the day's five silver coin wages in a dazeβthe basic wage, and if they did well, they could receive another sum in the evening.
If you don't do a good job, depending on the situation and attitude, it is likely that there will be no additional pay.
Five silver coins is a lot, but no one will feel satisfied with five silver coins, and all of them will work very hard, very hard to earn all the gold coins of Master Su, and make him bankrupt.
Therefore, the 300 overseers sent by Grand Duke Stan have no value in existing.
No one is going to be lazy, what else do you have to oversee to do?
"You three hundred, either work together, or you can go back to your majesty now." Su Mo said to the three hundred people with whips in their hands and machetes at their waists.
"This ...... It's not in order! The overseer shouted.
"What's not in order, I sent you here to urge them to work, do you think they still need to be supervised now?" Su Mo asked impatiently.
He hates these maggots who are useless at all.
"Even if they don't need to be supervised, it's up to us to record their performance and decide how much to pay!" The overseer's eyes were red.
It's not how responsible he is, if it is left to them to record, if these laborers can earn five more silver coins in addition to the basic five silver coins, then at least four of the five extra silver coins earned must be handed over to them for "safekeeping".
With such huge benefits, how can you be willing to let go of your mouth so much.
"My people will take care of the records, and they're doing the work too, so you and your people can leave." Su Mo said.
"Presumptuous, who gave you the right to drive us away!" The overseer couldn't believe that Su Mo was actually going to drive him away.
Deep down, he felt that he could be an equal to Su Mo, an adventurer, and even felt that Su Mo himself was within the jurisdiction of his whip.
"Smack!" Su Mo picked up a whip from the side and whipped it on the face of the overseer leader at once, causing a blood mark to appear on his white face immediately, and then said coldly: "Despicable thing, who gave you the right to question a great lord." β
The overseer almost ran away.
He really wanted to chop up Su Mo with three hundred minions, but unfortunately the people around him all looked at them, the three hundred overseers, and they had the intention of chopping them up without saying a word.
Especially those who were originally numb, and they were whipped out of their homes by them, and they hated them for a long time.
Now Su Mo is sending them money, Su Mo is their living ancestor, as long as Su Mo gives an order, even if they bite with their teeth, they can gnaw these overseers.
"Let's go!" The overseer whipped hard.
"Come back!" Su Mo called out to him.
"Hmph, if you have anything to say, go back and explain to the Grand Duke." The overseer thought that Su Mo wanted to say a few words to give him a step down, and immediately showed his refusal to accept it.
"You have to apologize to me first, offending a nobleman is a capital offense." Su Mo almost burst out laughing.
Damn NPC, I can't touch Grand Duke Stan, and I can't move you bullying and afraid minions, and I've long wanted to buy people's hearts by punishing these overseers.
The laborers were requisitioned from their homes, and when they came to Su Mo's side, most of them had whip marks on their faces, and they probably had more on their bodies.
It's enough to show how hateful these overseers are.
The overseer was so angry that he wondered if Su Mo was going to make food.
"......" Simmons, the splitter, wanted to stand up and say something, but accidentally caught a glimpse of Su Mo's eyes looking at him, and his heart suddenly trembled, and he simply pretended to be deaf and dumb and didn't say a word.
People had to bow their heads under the eaves, and the head of the overseer could only kneel on the ground in humiliation, kowtowing like a lord to admit his mistakes.
"Get out!" Master Su obviously had no intention of easing the relationship between the two sides, and drove away the overseer and his three hundred minions, and before they could go far, the coolies in the small square erupted into an earth-shattering cheer.
These coolies, who originally thought that there was no way to live, looked at Master Su's eyes, and they were already full of gratitude and longing.
Buying people's hearts is actually as simple as that.
Without Su Mo saying anything more, these people immediately threw themselves into the construction in full swing.
The rock was blown open and rolled down to its intended position, and a group of people rushed up to knock and chisel, and soon the first stone of the city of Stan was born, and then the stone was pried onto the plank, and the rolling wood was padded underneath, and the strong man in charge of this pulled the stone to the bank of the river not far away, pushed it onto the raft that had just been tied, and after confirming that it was stable, it went down the river.
On the other side of the site, coolies wielded shovels and shovels to excavate sections.
The brothers of the Scarlet Banner were also at work, and in addition to their work, they were also responsible for keeping a record of their work, and each of them kept a record of the work of his or her small group laborers.
"Is this necessary, they will definitely tell the truth when they go back." Simmons, the Splinter, complained to Su Mo's side after everyone had gone to work.
"So, I need you to go back." Su Mo said.
"What do you need me to convey for you?" Simmons asked, and he knew that this thing would not let him go.
Then Su Mo told Simmons the script, Simmons opened his mouth wide when he heard it, and couldn't help but scold Su Mo: "You...... You're too shameless, aren't you? β
"Go, go and come back quickly," Su Mo flicked the dust on his sleeve and said gently: "Just go to one, and the remaining seventeen can stay and move stones." β
"Poof!" Simmons, the Splinter, squirted out a mouthful of old blood and staggered away.
He immediately went back to meet Grand Duke Stan, and happened to meet the head of the overseer who was accusing Su Mo of being arrogant.
"That damn adventurer, who has been reused by the Grand Duke, does not think about reciprocating, has already begun to use chicken feathers as arrows, and is making a fortune everywhere, you look at my face, it was pumped by him, and it depends on the owner to beat the dog, Your Excellency the Grand Duke Wow ~ Woo woo ~ "
Grand Duke Stan was on top of him, and his face was gloomy.
"You deserve to be killed!" Simmons scolded loudly, and then asked: "What do you mean by holding chicken feathers as an arrow, and the appointment of the Grand Duke is also chicken feathers?" β
"......" Grand Duke Stan touched his nose, thinking that this matter might not be as simple as the overseer said.
"That's not what I meant!" The overseer was dumbfounded.
