Mr. Juan's assets were frozen, and the first to be affected were the guys he hired, who had a hard time surviving in Illion, and suddenly lost a job that he thought he could do for a lifetime, which made these people very sad. No one knows when Mr. Juan's assets will be unfrozen this time, and if they find a workshop and a bar outside that can be operated again, will they come back or not?

When you come back, you will definitely offend people, and you may have to pay some liquidated damages for it.

If Mr. Juan is in a hurry to get to work and recruit a new batch of people, doesn't that mean that they are going to lose their stable jobs?

This is a real headache, and even more frustrating is that the winter break is coming, and this month's salary has not yet been paid, which means that they may have to work as a few very low-paid temporary workers in the two months leading up to the winter break. They may be starving during the next winter break.

"It's not a good idea to be around here, leave one person here to wait for news, let's go to the port and see if there are any better temporary workers to do!", said Rhodes, the caretaker of the workshop, who is almost sixty years old this year, who has worked here with Juan all his life, and is considered a respectable person. With his words, the young people walked towards the port.

At this time, the harbor is still hot in the hottest weather in summer, and the humid sea breeze carries the autumn slaughter, even if you wear an extra piece of clothing, you can't stop the slightest chill through the bones. There were not many shouting merchants to be seen on the empty docks, and the merchants had begun to withdraw at this time, and they would come back after the spring began tomorrow.

The sudden appearance of a large group of people on the dock attracted the attention of many people, and immediately merchants came to peddle their wares, and the prices were almost a third lower than before. Bringing these goods back not only required a lot of travel expenses, but also squeezed out the liquidity of the merchants. By the beginning of spring next year, the goods in their hands may be out of date, and it is estimated that they will lose one if they sell one of them with three travel expenses.

It's better to reduce the price sharply, even if you don't make money, it's better than losing money.

"Are you hiring? The kind that pays daily!", Rhodes, the oldest and the highest in the group, asked the question on behalf of the group first.

The enthusiasm of the merchants faded in an instant, and many shook their heads and left, but others remained.

One of the merchants who sold furniture asked, "How much do you plan to spend a day as a coolie?", several workers discussed with Rhodes for a while, and gave a piece of wages for five days, the merchant shook his head, "It's too expensive, I can only give you one and two yuan, if you want to do it, you can leave a little people down, if you don't want to do it, please do it." ”

Burning 20 percent at once is really hard to accept, the money they asked for is actually not very high, some people left angrily, but some people stayed.

"What do you need us to do?"

The merchant smiled and pointed to the goods wrapped in canvas like a hill on the dock in the distance and said: "Send these things to the fifth district, how to send them to you to solve it yourself, ten people will deliver it in three days!"

Rhodes just glanced at it, and his beard trembled, "How is that possible? Even with a truck it would take a day, and you don't have a truck yet." ”

"Do you want to do it?", the merchant pouted indifferently, "If you don't do it, we'll find the coolies on the docks, and the price is the same, they don't have so much to say." ”

Looking at the heavy cargo like a hill, Rhodes could only sigh, three days is three days, at least it can solve the problem of eating for some people during this time. He turned to look at the strong guys behind him, "Whoever is tighter will go first, everyone should be considerate of each other." ”

A few young men stood out of the crowd with some embarrassment and embarrassment, and walked aside with the merchant to discuss.

Soon the group was divided up, except for Rhodes, who had no job.

He is a middle-level cadre under Juan, he is still somewhat worthy, he lives in the fourth district, and he does not lack two months' salary to spend the winter break. He was worried about the young lads, who had no savings and the family was using money, so he stayed.

Just as he sighed and was about to leave, the young man who had stayed behind ran over panting. He stopped in front of Rhodes, pressed his hands to his knees, bent over, gasped, and pointed to where he had come from, saying, "Over there...... Someone is looking for you over there, Grandpa Rhodes. ”

Rhodes' face flashed with joy, and he hurriedly asked, "Is it Lord Juan's man?"

The guy gasped a little, straightened his back, shook his head, and replied, "No, it's Mr. 350,000!"

When James learned that Juan's assets were frozen, he immediately sold the liquor license to Dorin, and sold it at the market price without any discount. James signaled that he could give less, but Durin didn't. Money has a lot of magic, and any money exchange is normal and legal when nothing happens to you. But when someone wants to give you a little bit of color to see what they do, even if you give a dollar less, it can be an excuse - there is no data in the phrase below the market price, and anyone who sees it knows what it means.

The first thing Durin did when he got the liquor license was to resume brewing as soon as possible, he used to import all the liquor from the Federation, and he didn't know the specific brewing method of this world, so he had to recruit all these skilled workers of Juan under his command, and he didn't have time to hire new people one by one.

Rhodes was outside the door of their workshop when he saw Mr. 350,000, and Durin was looking through the window about the equipment inside, and Rhodes walked over with a light step, but not so light that he couldn't hear it at all.

"Do you sell all of these things, Illian?", Dühring pointed to the brewing equipment inside.

Rhodes didn't know what Du Lin meant, but he knew that he couldn't afford to offend any rich man, so he nodded respectfully, "Most of these things can be bought, except for a few homemade things that can't buy finished products, but they can also be typed by a blacksmith." ”

Durin nodded, it would be good if he could buy it, he turned around and stretched out his hand, and took the initiative to shake Rhodes, "You are Rhodes, right? Durin's hearing is not a hypocritical greeting, he has really heard of this guy. He was a friend of Juan's and had been apprenticed in the previous workshop, and after he had seized the owner's property and drowned the owner by accident, he took over the workshop and his former "co-workers".

He had many people thrown out or fired, but Rhodes did not. Rhodes is a very practical person, and he doesn't have any fancy ideas, this kind of person is dead if he starts a business, but it's good to keep it. Over the years, Juan has completely let Rhodes manage his workshop, and it can be said that half of the money in his hands is actually earned by Rhodes for him.

There are big people who compliment themselves so much, Rhodes also feels that there is face on his face, and after he humbly pleaded that it was appreciated by others, he asked Duhrin what he meant, "You mean...... Is Mr. Juan finished?"

Durin laughed twice, he didn't say yes, he didn't take it, but his attitude already said everything, "Juan mortgaged the workshops and bars to the Imperial Bank, and now his assets are frozen, and he can't redeem them within the specified date, so these things are already the bank's things." ”

Rodston panicked, he wouldn't do anything else after a lifetime of winemaking, his son and son-in-law were also workers under him, and everyone in this family could only make wine, and when he suddenly heard the news, didn't he say that the family was going to lose their jobs?

Durin was very pleased with the change in Rhodes's expression, he liked people who did not have a city government, so he made his meaning clear very happily, "I bought a liquor license from the bank and intend to continue making and selling liquor, I don't know much about this business, so I need skilled and reliable workers, and they recommended you to me." I don't know if you'd like to work for me? ”

At this time, Rhodes's mind was full of the unemployment of his whole family, and hearing Durin say this was like a drowning swimmer touching a thread sewing clothes, and he wanted to climb up along the thread.

Rhodes looked delighted, "Of course I do, it's my pleasure, Mr. Doolin!",

With Rhodes' help, Dührin quickly taught Rhodes everything to do, and his only requirement was that the distillery must be large, the output must be high, and it must get rid of the scale and output of the "workshop".

Rhodes has nothing to object to this, anyway, a barrel of wine is also brewed, and a hundred barrels, ten thousand barrels are also brewed. He immediately had his workers gathered and discussed with Durin about building the factory.

After co-opting the journeymen in Juan's brewery, Durin did not recruit the people in his bar, and the atmosphere in the bar was different from that in the workshop. Secondly, Doolin plans to recruit some people from Turner to run the bar and start the intelligence business at the same time.

There are two kinds of businesses in this world that can make a lot of money without any capital, the first is robbery, and the second is intelligence trading.

Once his drinks pour into the Empire, and with it, he will be able to spread his tentacles throughout the Empire, and there must be someone he can trust to do this, and Juan can't trust those people!
