After Al returned to the old mansion, he was most concerned about this matter. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 The fact that the Colosseum was built like the Divine Radiance was of course a joke, and the wonders of the world like the Colosseum in ancient Rome were unnecessary, after all, there were not so many spectators, but Al still wanted the Colosseum to be described as majestic, in the words he once said to Sasha: "The first sight of the Colosseum is a kind of heartfelt shock." The Colosseum had many other functions as he had designed, and it would have taken some time to build, but Al still hoped that it would be completed as soon as possible.

"According to your instructions, most of the workers are recruited from the living dead in the Poole district, and we use the method of cash-for-work to do a day's work to settle the day's food payment, and now the whole project has been more than half progressed, and the construction site is watched by experienced teachers who have been invited, and I often go to check, and there is no quality problem. Taking advantage of the free time to eat, Al listened to the old butler's report.

Al nodded, "Excuse me, Mr. Schegeman, and often bother you to get out of the city." ”

"What are you talking about, Master El. The old butler's eyes widened, and his beard curled up with pride, "Do you dislike Schegman's old age? The old cavalryman can still run back and forth several times now!", he said as he unscrewed his cuffs, revealing strong, youth-like arms.

"Yes, yes, so I'm going to trouble you as usual in the future. Al couldn't help but laugh, "Please prepare a carriage for me, and I'll be out later." ”

"Okay, Young Master El, it's just that Freeman has gone to settle those demonic beasts transported from the west, and he is not in Shenghui City recently, do you need me to arrange some additional guards, or will I go out with you?", the loyal old butler said with some concern.

"No need, Mr. Schaegman, you should go to the construction site and watch later, I don't feel at ease to hand it over to the others, there is no danger for me to go out this time, and I don't need any guards." Al declined the old butler's kindness.

Then he said to Sasha, who was sitting next to him, "The progress is not bad, I am satisfied, and I also want to thank you for your long efforts, both to estimate the business house and to take care of the construction of the Colosseum, it must have been very hard." ”

"Where, these are the things I should do. Sasha waved his hand, he hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Your cash-for-work method is very good, and the untouchables in Poole have always been grateful to you, they work hard and are never lazy, so the project can always be carried out at a faster pace." But with all due respect, the food they ate was also too good, one white porridge per person per meal, one meat for three meals, and stewed bone broth. All in all, the daily cost is not a small amount, and it is far more than the pay paid by other trading houses to hire untouchables, and to be honest, I often hear those merchants complain these days that our western trading houses have ruined the market. ”

"Oh, is there something wrong with the cash flow of the comptoir? Mr. Sasha, I carefully calculated the cost when I first approved it, and the cost was certainly not small, but it was not a large amount compared to the raw materials. As for the gossip, just ignore it, anyway, our business has nothing to do with these slave traders and mining, does it?", Al said, raising an eyebrow.

"Of course not. Sasha hurriedly replied, "Perhaps it is the habit of the merchants, who are unable to be as kind as you, and when I see that the untouchables spend a lot of money every day, I always feel like they are stealing money from my pocket." Sasha smiled self-deprecatingly, "The belly and generosity of this great nobleman are far beyond my reach." ”

Al laughed, "How can I be as good as you say, such a person is a sage, not a nobleman." He comforted and said, "Some sympathy for the living dead in Poole is one thing, and appropriate good deeds are also beneficial to the reputation of our Iron Thorn family, and sometimes a good reputation cannot be exchanged for any amount of money. ”

"So it's not as selfless as you think, and I have my own calculations for doing this. ”

"But what is the use of raising a reputation among those untouchables? Master El, who has neither strength nor wealth nor power, and a good reputation among these untouchables seems to be of little use to wild dogs like them, who have milk and are mothers, and whoever gives them food they are loyal to. Sasha asked, confused.

"Have you ever imagined that one day, the order of the entire world will be completely overturned, the nobles will no longer hold power and power, and this city of Radiance will no longer be suitable for people to live in, Mr. Sasha?", Al asked abruptly, fiddling with the fork in his hand.

"This, how is this possible. Sasha was a little dumbfounded.

"It's nothing, you're just thinking of mine just in case. Al said with a smile, and then said as Sasha got up to take his leave, "Please go back to the trading house and find Peter and send him here, I have something for him to do." Sasha nodded to indicate that he understood.

Sasha's doubts are actually quite normal, at least in this Shenghui City, people look at the untouchables in the Pur district just as the Mongol iron horsemen regarded the Han people as "four-legged sheep" when they were raging in the Central Plains, and they were not treated as human beings at all.

But Al knows that in the war years, the most needed and valuable resource is precisely "people", the soldiers on the battlefield are people, the blacksmiths who strike iron are people, and the farmers who plant are people...... No matter how stupid a person is, as long as he works hard, he can always learn a skill and play a role in the huge war. But there is only one person, and there is only one life, and one person cannot be split into three or four pieces and used as three or four people, so these living dead in Poole may be extremely valuable resources in the future Dark Arts Disaster, especially for the Westland, which is severely short of people.

All the preparations made by Al at this time are always for the future catastrophe, even if it is a little bit of power, Al is willing to grasp it, and does not want to give up.

Al made the electric light for a while as ordered, and received a report that Peter had arrived. After a period of tempering, the clever little ghost back then was also a lot more capable, although he was still a little nervous when he came to this mansion, but at least his voice was not shaking, his legs were not weak, and he was already like a little adult.

"Good day, Young Master El, I heard you were looking for me. Peter bowed.

"Good day, little Peter, are you familiar with the orphanage in the Holy Radiance City?", Al asked his purpose.
