Chapter Eighty-Three: The Fog of History

As soon as the words fell, Wayne had a headache. Looking at Morrone's sincere expression, he couldn't help but feel a little painful. It seems that he doesn't care about it, and this Morrone really intends to do it.

"Morrone, that's what you did before, remember not to do it now. You can deceive, you can bluff, but you must not use coercion. Otherwise, I won't be able to protect you. ”

When Morrone heard this, he thought about it for a while, and then it became clear that Lord Wayne wanted things to be done not too ugly. But this kind of thing is inherently dirty, and it seems difficult to avoid.

Embarrassed to say.

"Wayne Leader can't do this, it's not easy to get together 10,000 people in a month. It's not just about bringing me, a young workforce also means a family. Maybe if you don't bring the elderly, a laborer will have to bring at least six people. ”

Wayne thought about it for a while, after all, in this era, labor is the pillar of a family. The migration of a young workforce also means the migration of a family. The journey is long and not suitable for the elderly, and because the nutrition of civilians cannot keep up, the medical environment is poor. So there won't be many elderly people, and giving the elderly a fee to stay where they are may be the best thing for them.

Wayne's solution to this is also very simple, to activate his money abilities again. Now the workshop earns nearly 100 gold coins a day, plus the original industry, as well as the unspent gold coins sent by Count Niels. Wayne was barely trapped by money.

"Morrone, do you know what my greatest strength is?"

Morrone, with his head that has been in the mall for decades, immediately thinks of patting on the back.

He immediately said with a pious expression of worship to the Father.

"Lord Wayne's supreme wisdom, of course. ”

Evans couldn't help it on the spot and burst out laughing.

"Hahaha, you're right. ”

Wayne looked at Evans and shook his head helplessly. Then he caught a glimpse of Morrone's smug expression when he heard Evans' appreciation. Wayne suddenly felt that Morrone wasn't so reliable.

"Morrone, I tell you, my greatest advantage is that I am not short of money. And I'm willing to share that wealth with others. You also see that the merchants who are willing to follow me are not making a lot of money. ”

Morrone immediately thought of the steelworks, who claimed to be shareholders, and made a profit of at least two thousand gold coins a year. This was the envy of the merchants who came to Nolan later. Steel, glass, farm implements, cement they all missed. But they didn't want to leave, for fear that Wayne would have something new to make money.

Morrone was lucky, and Wayne was going to make a deal with him today. Naturally, Morrone also understood the meaning of Wayne's words.

There is money, but you can't do illegal things.

But Morrone said cautiously.

"Lord Wayne, then the price may have to be increased fivefold. In the past, one labor force was one gold coin. Now it's going to be five, and it's almost 50,000 in total. ”

Wayne nodded, this money is small money for him now!

"After that, Nolan needed a steady stream of labor. But there is no urgency as now, and the price is so calculated. ”

"Twice as much as before. ”

Morrone nervously finished the numbers, but Wayne didn't seem to care about the money. Morrone was also secretly frightened in his heart, Lord Wayne was rich. Fifty thousand gold coins don't seem to care.

"Yes, but I want you to lower the price later. After all, you are also a businessman, and you should also understand that you can't spend money indiscriminately. ”

Morrone nodded yes hurriedly.

"In this case, we will sign an agreement, and it is estimated that you will know what this is after many days in Nolan. Since you don't force it, then it's also said in the past. ”

The deal was negotiated, Wayne was able to find his backing, and he could earn a lot of gold. The corners of Morrone's mouth were raised high, almost to his ears.

After happily signing the paper, I received the deposit and went to do it immediately.

Wayne said casually.

"You guess Morrone would do that?"

Evans usually has a lot of contact with merchants, and they know everything about it.

"Part of it was done by myself, but the time was too tight. He will definitely find other traffickers, and of course the price will be much lower. ”

"That's right, I don't care about this little profit with him, as long as he gets things done. It's a pity that he used to do human trafficking business with elves, and this stain really can't be erased. Doomed to not be reused. We are short of commercial manpower. For the order of 50,000 gold coins, I have to come forward in person. ”

"It's better to transfer Obans back, Longi City is now operating similarly, and the situation is starting to stabilize. ”

"That's fine, but it's just a stopgap measure, and we're always short of business talent. ”

The moon hangs high and the stars twinkle.

Nolan lit torches in dozens of places, just to illuminate the blackboard of the night teacher in front of him.

The audience was black, full of knowledge-seeking eyes. After all, those who can't learn won't come.

In recent times, Nolan has placed an unprecedented emphasis on literacy. The military prioritizes literate people, and literacy is also needed if you want to advance in the workshop.

The most important thing is that Nolan's important information is posted in the form of notices every day, and being illiterate means that opportunities are likely to be snatched away by others. For example, the day before yesterday it was said that one person needed to go to Vasser and bring a batch of ceramics to Stuyard. The reward is three gold coins.

At that time, the literate people did not explain what was written on it, and immediately ran away. Went to get this job.

And you have to learn addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, which is the most in-demand skill in the workshop and the army.

In short, Nolan is full of opportunities now, but they are all conditional. Stimulated by gold coins, more and more people attend night classes. So much so that even if the night class teacher has risen to two gold coins a month, there is still a shortage of people.

"Respect for the military. ”

An evening teacher who teaches the curriculum according to "New Era Soldiers". And write these four words on the blackboard and read them out. The people in the audience listened silently, trying to memorize the words on a black background and white edges in their hearts.

It was a calm night for Nolan, but it was also the night when the Vane stain began to accumulate.

As long as there is a need, a saint can also be depicted as a villain, and a villain can also be praised as a saint.

A hundred years later, an intellectual craze that swept across the continent began to rise. It is known as reforming the old and welcoming the new, as for the old of the reform. There's no better fit than Wayne.

If you want to criticize someone, you have to look for the person's stain.

They found the agreement Wayne signed today. After the decision, they decided to make a few announcements to the public.

Wayne made a human trade with an inhumane human trafficker for money. This human trafficker abducts women and traffics children. The sin is terrible.

But there are some messages that I don't know if they haven't seen or don't want to say.

After this human trafficker followed Wayne, his main job was to move people, and he never did human trafficking. It is not said that the people who moved over were all bankrupt in the original place and could not survive, but they did not worry about food and clothing when they arrived in Nolan. Nor did I say how much this initiative had contributed to the development of industry.

History is always transparent only to the top.
