Chapter 109: Efficiency
"Whoa...... Ahh
There was a round of applause again, and Lu Bin looked around at the people around him and saw that their enthusiasm was a little stronger than just now. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info his words carried a lot of weight due to the victory in the previous competition, and the obvious gap between the two teams made the onlookers present wide-eyed and speechless, so they could only applaud.
Derek looked at the scene in front of him thoughtfully, and his perception of "Mage Rez" also changed from the strangeness and mystery when he first came into contact with him to his unfathomable evaluation.
He then looked up at the twelve-meter-tall Fortress-level Treant, which was said to be as powerful as a Siege-level War Behemoth with its natural skins, vine armor, and sprout staff.
"With such an extraordinary character, I'm afraid I'm not qualified to make friends as a buyer. I must introduce Lord Reze to the Earl of Conrad, for only in this way will my interests not be harmed, and even by introducing talents, I will be able to add more points to the Earl's heart and strengthen my position that I have begun to shake. ”
The buyer, Derek, had decided to invest in the construction of the road at all costs, intending to use it as a gift to win the favor of Earl Conrad, after all, the discovery of iron ore by Lord Nell Austin's pioneer territory had confirmed that the road for transporting ore or iron ingots into semi-finished products was necessary to boost the military industry in Bagen-Uttonburg.
Rather than leaving it to someone else to build, it is better to keep it firmly in your own hands. This is the strategy of a senior buyer who has a preliminary understanding of the rules of the aristocratic game and can be like a fish in water and very moisturizing the land.
However, now it is no more than before, as long as he has the friendship of "Mage Rez", this human legend who is suspected to have mastered the artifact, even Count Conrad will be very satisfied.
"Lord Rez, it will be a weapon for Count Conrad to fight against his political rival, the mage lord Felix, and maybe the Earl will be able to peek into the position of deputy speaker of the Great Council of the North, this position has been held by the Felix family long enough to be tireless. ”
Derek made up his mind, and immediately put on the professional smile he had cultivated during his long career as a buyer, and walked to the "Mage Rez" in the distance, who was directing the hired man to continue to expand his path.
It didn't take long for news to reach the ears of Paulus, the tribune of Blackwater, who was also a leader in surviving the continuous wars of the Pioneer Era, and when he arrived at the scene in person, he only needed a few glances to understand the trick.
"Your Excellency Rez, he is working miracles!"
With the addition of the second, third, and even fourth batches of employees, Lu Bin organized these employees who did not know each other with a few words, and integrated them into the first batch of road construction workers in a seamless manner, so that these people could quickly get started in a way that brought the old and the new.
The road stretches forward at a speed that is visible to the eye, and the only restriction is the longer and longer distance of sand and gravel, after all, from the nearest "warehouse" at the beginning, to now nearly three kilometers apart, a trip back and forth takes half an hour, and most of the people are dragged on the transport.
The buyer Derek also felt embarrassed, and he immediately found Lu Bin to complain: "Your Excellency, what should I do? The speed has slowed down again!"
Lu Bin looked at his partner: "I do have a way to improve, it is a flatbed freight carriage! But the price is too expensive, and the forage for the horses is also an additional expense." In order to solve the problem that the transportation of sand and gravel cannot keep up with the speed of road construction, the existing means of transportation must be improved. ”
Speaking of this, Lu Bin paused: "I have already conceived a rough prototype, but now I can't catch up with the preparations, so I can only wait until tomorrow...... As for now, it can only continue to be maintained for the time being. ”
He saw the unwilling expression of the purchaser, Derek, "Mr. Derek, you might as well touch your conscience, with the current progress, is it worse than the same number of hired people?"
"Probably...... It's about 20% of the current progress...... I see, I'm just too greedy. ”
Lu Bin immediately opened his mouth to comfort: "It's okay! Your mood at this time is the desire for success, and the urgency to prove your ability, this is the element of a successful person!"
Derek breathed a sigh of relief, and then countered Lu Bin's army: "Your Excellency, how are you feeling at this time?
Without hesitation, Lu Bin raised his right hand that was clenched into a fist, revealing his middle finger with a ring: "I'm different from you, I don't have to prove myself with these external successes!"
"Alas......" Derek sighed, inexplicably feeling a little emotional, and then his spirits lifted again, "Your Excellency, it is really the luck of my life to be able to meet you!"
Lu Bin put away the water ring Lanya, thought about it carefully, and then responded: "Mission creates destiny! Destiny makes us meet." ”
A proper term immediately popped into Derek's mind: "Elven Proverbs!" Lord Rez is indeed the key person chosen by the elves, and he wants to build a bridge, which is not an easy task. ”
"Your Excellency, I am really glad now, and I sincerely appreciate your forgiveness! I did not rely on the bully as I did before when you bid for the competition that day, otherwise I would have missed this friendship, and I do not know what to say......
Lu Bin nodded approvingly: "Mr. Derek, you really don't see the pride and self-esteem of the big nobles. Sometimes, if you put your status a little lower and retract your gaze to look at the distant sky, you will often be able to see many charming scenery under the lighthouse. ”
"One more thing, we should stop this pointless mutual touting, what a waste of time!"
The last sentence almost went to the heart of the buyer Derek, but even if he knew, he did not dare to say it so bluntly, "Your Excellency, you are always so wise and perceive the weaknesses of the human heart. ”
Lu Bin couldn't help but pat his forehead, looking up to the sky speechless and didn't know what to say, Derek immediately understood, his hands kept trembling, like a "chicken claw madness" that stopped for a while.
"I still have to further improve the improved means of transport, and the construction of today's roads will be almost finished before dusk. The hired workers are very hard, and it is going to be dark all the way back, don't let them go home in the dark, it's too impersonal, it's not good. Also, their wages must be sufficient, and it is best for you to distribute them personally, there are a lot of people in Blackwater Town, which is good for you. ”
Lu Bin rarely nagged once, but it made the buyer Derek nod his head again and again like a chicken, because Lu Bin started from his point of view, considered his interests, and resonated with him, which is an inevitable result.
Everything was arranged, and later Lu Bin sent the fortress-level tree man back to the "Elven Waste Capital Elundelle", and then set off to return to the Alfalfa Flower Tavern.
Nina Wild had been waiting in his room for a long time, not only washing her body inside and out, but also using a valuable rose perfume, shedding her usual hunting clothes, wearing her short and heroic hair in a ponytail and wrapping it behind her head, and changing into a lace-trimmed black silk undergarment to show off her near-perfect body.
The reason for this astonishing decision was that she sensed some kind of imminent danger, as evidenced by the fact that the girls who appeared more often in the tavern halls.
In order to tie the heart of the "legendary mage Rez" as soon as possible, Nina Wild has made up her mind to fully surrender her body, at least to keep her position as "wife".
"The casters are very traditional people, and it is rare to hear of finding a lover behind his wife's back. Wandering through the halls of mystical knowledge is their hobby, and the various spell models are the mage's lovers. There is no mistake in the rumors, although Lord Reze is not from a famous family, nor is he an orthodox academic mage, he is indeed a tireless pursuit of arcane knowledge, and even wanders around for it. This is a secret that I may only know......"
Nina Wild remembers that she and "Lady Rez" shared a secret that they only knew, and it was worse than any beautiful love story. In the blink of an eye, she felt the heat wave in her body surge, and then she couldn't help but stretch out her hand to the grassy Parrot Island.
It was at this time that Lu Bin jumped from the balcony into his room - he had never taken the usual path, not to mention that the tavern hall was overcrowded, and he didn't want to make himself sweat profusely.
So, Lu Bin saw the unknown side of his entourage, the resolute Nina Wild, the Hanyang tree in the Qingchuan calendar, and instantly stood up to pay tribute to this noble girl.
Even though Lu Bin's movements were light and without fireworks, there was always some sound when his feet landed, which immediately alarmed the intoxicated Nina Wilder, and such a shameful scene was discovered, and it was the mage Rez who was ready to make a promise, and the original passionate emotions suddenly rose to the peak.
Flying down three thousand feet, Lu Bin couldn't help but be speechless when he saw such an amazing scene, but what could he say?
"It's better to stay where you are, no matter what you say or do now, it's very inappropriate, and if you attract people from outside, it will definitely be a big trouble.
Nina Wild's body seemed to be hollowed out after facing the first peak of her life, and then she immediately came back to her senses, got out of bed in shame, laid out the intimate robe that showed her graceful curves, covered her red face with her hands, and quickly rushed out of the mage Rez's room and returned to her own room next door.
Lu Bin looked stunned, and suddenly hammered his head with remorse, "I had such a good opportunity just now, I should have taken the opportunity to eat this little lamb sent to the door, it's a pity!"
Then he felt that his mood was a little too excited, "Something is wrong! What happened just now, it seems to be cheating! We are not in love...... People"
Lu Bin's voice gradually decreased, and as soon as the sky was dark outside, the cold night wind blew, blowing away the heat of people's hearts.
