Jill wanders the streets of Fendra helplessly, her arm being held by Jona.

"You've been gone for so long, and the only time you've written to me is asking me to connect you with a helper," Jona complained in a low voice.

"I've sent you money, I've already rented your house, and I've already paid for half a year. You can stay in it all the time during this time."

The streets looked a little dilapidated, with a few dogs roaming. The winter sun is weak, and the dry and cold ground is slightly softer. A few dry trees dotted the corners, and the ground was a messy paved with stone bricks.

Jill looked ahead, and by the end of his eye, Jill knew that Jona was watching him carefully.

"I don't want money." Jona pulled Jill tighter.

Jill felt embarrassed.

"I''m not going to give you anything else".

"Do you dislike me?"

Knowing that he could no longer ignore Ruona's gaze, Jill turned and looked down at Ruona.

Jona looked up at Jill, and on the icy and damp North Sea Plains, the two men had nothing to rely on but each other.

"Look at my legs", Gilnu pursed his mouth, "it's broken, it can't bear you." ”

"What do you say this is? If I cared about your legs, would I still come to pester you?'''''' Ruona's skin was fair, a little dry from the wind, and her eyes were red.

Gil looked at Jona fixedly, clenched his right hand, and gently pressed it on his left chest.

"This is my heart", said Jill, "it's almost broken, and now it can only hold one person" and "it can't fit you"

Ruona pursed her lips, tears finally streaming down.

Citizens back and forth looked at the man and woman with interested smiles. Jill sighed and hugged Jona into his arms, letting Jona's tears wet her clothes.

An hour later, Jona and Jill returned to the tavern.

The tavernkeeper noticed that Miss Jona had a happy expression on her face, as if nothing had happened, but her moist, red eyes revealed everything.

The boss pretended not to see and wiped the counter himself.

Jill and Jona had a meal here.

"Tell me about your boss in the past," Jill asked during dinner, "and this time he sent someone to burn down my construction site, and I heard that he has some background. ”

Jona thought for a moment, "He's terrible. He has been doing evil to us, but no one has touched him, and the old men in the town have turned a blind eye to him, and he has given these old men a lot of benefits. The casinos here are all his forces. ”

"Oh, he seems to be at odds with the executioners," Jill said lightly.

"Yes," Jona replied, "the executioners are poor peasants or bankrupt craftsmen, and if it weren't for the hardships and the fact that they couldn't live, no one would be the executioners." Most of the executioners were outsiders with no background in the town, so the owner of Yihongyuan had always been hostile to them. It's just that the executioners are very united, capable, and have a good relationship with the civilians. So the owner of Yihong Courtyard has not been able to get rid of them. There are two worlds of Fandra, the world of the day and the world of the night. The water here is very deep, you should definitely be careful. I heard that you detained a few people on the construction site, and those people were sent by the boss of Yihongyuan, it seems that the foreman asked for help. You'd better let them go, or you'll be in trouble. ”

"Trouble," Jill said with a mischievous expression, "I would like to know what the trouble is." ”

"Shh Ruona's eyes widened, "Don't say that, you don't know what kind of person you're facing!" The boss of Yihong Courtyard has already spoken, and he said that this time he sent people only for business, not for you. As long as you release people, then everything is negotiable. ”

"Oh, yes, yes", Jill comforted Jona, "I'm measured. But yourself, is your safety guaranteed? They should know you've been giving me news. ”

"Do you still care about my danger?"

Jill looked at Jona and didn't speak.

"Forget it," Jona gave up and questioned Jill, "I'm fine." Some of my sisters used to take care of me, and some of their subordinates knew me well, so they didn't make it difficult for me."

Jill had a few words to Jona.

Finally Jill said, "Okay, let's be here today, I'll be back to the construction site tomorrow." You should go back and rest early. ”

"I don't", hearing that Jill drove herself away, Jona puffed out, "Either you go back with me today, or I stay here." ”

Jill was in a hurry for a long time, and Jona stayed there and didn't leave.

The tavern keeper came over, "Sir, Miss Ruona has been waiting for you for so long, it's not good for you to get rid of her like this", said the tavern owner leaned down and whispered to Jill, "Play with confidence".

Jill's eyes widened in confusion,

Jona's face flushed, and she remembered the cup of tea after the night with Jill.

The tavern owner scolded Jill for being serious in his heart, and waved his hand, "Okay, okay, you guy is really, hehe''''

In the end, Zona's soft grinding was hard to resist, and Jill agreed to stay with Jona.

Ruona smiled happily, she took out her small leather bag, which contained pajamas and other bedding, "Haha, I knew you were reluctant to drive me away."

Jill looked at the cheering Jona in a daze, and then sent Jona upstairs.

After Jona leaves, Jill asks the tavern owner for a stack of paper and ink, and then asks the owner to sharpen a few quills for him.

At the tavern's grease-stained table, Jill wrote a few letters to the big trading houses in the South. In the letter, Jill told the merchants that there was a collection of high-quality iron tools in Fandra that could be used on various farms and plantations. Due to the excessive number of tools, they cannot afford to ship goods to the south, as long as the merchants are willing to send people to pick up the goods themselves, Gil's side will provide them with tools at a favorable price.

After writing these letters, Jill asked the tavernkeeper to help him send them.

The tavern keeper smiled and put the letter in his clothes, "Your business, my business". After holding the letter, the boss said to Jill, "By the way, Mr. Jill, can I discuss something for you?" ”

"What?"

"I see that those executioners have a good relationship with you, they owe me a lot of money for drinks, do you see if it''''

Jill thought for a moment, "How much do they owe you?" ”

"Thirty-seven dinars, sir, I know it's embarrassing. You don't have to give it all to me, but '''"

With a relaxed expression, Jill promised the tavernkeeper, "At the end of the month, they will settle all the accounts for you, and they will buy all the wine you have here." ”

The tavernkeeper thought Jill was prevaricating and raised an eyebrow, "Hmm" and "Okay, okay".

Jill saw the tavernkeeper's thoughts, "Daddy, if you don't believe me, let's wait until the end of the month." If the executioners don't pay off their bills, I'll wipe their butts clean for them. Say yes. ”

"Yes, sir. Yes, sir". The tavernkeeper walked away with a professional smile, he didn't believe Jill's words at all, but since Jill said so, let's wait and see.

Jill got upstairs and Jona was already asleep. Jill quietly sat down on the other side of the bed and began to take off her clothes.

At this time, Jona's voice came, "You sleep here, come on, I've slept warm here, and it's cold there."

The next day, Jill returned to the construction site.

Jill's foremen came over to report some of the situation after Jill left, and it was business as usual. Jill sent the men away after confirming that they were correct. A foreman stayed.

Jill asked, "Anything else?" ”

"Yes, I have a guy under me that I can't stand anymore", the foreman complained, "that 'thorn', I hate him." Get him away, I'm annoyed by looking at him! ”

Jill was curious, "What's wrong with him?" ”

"Come with me".

Jill followed the foreman to the blacksmith's shop. This group of workers was reorganized by Jill, and its members were all skilled blacksmiths. Under the foreman's direction, Jill saw the 'thorn head'.

A silent guy pulling the bellows.

This man is strong, but his skin does not have the traces left by years of blacksmith work, and among blacksmiths, this man can be regarded as fine skin and tender meat.

"This man's name is Ivan," said the foreman, "a stubborn Wikiyanke like a stone!" ”

"What's wrong with him?"

"What's wrong? Jill, when you shoehorned him into me, you should have known that this guy was eye-catching! He looked down on everyone as if he were some amazing person himself. Someone else who makes a fire has to pull the bellows 100 times and use 10 pieces of wood, but he has to pull the bellows 120 times and put 13 pieces of wood. He said that at the end of the day, wood and strength will be saved a lot, save his mother! And he also said that anyone who doesn't do that is stupid! Even I dare to scold! ”

Jill didn't seem to listen to the foreman's interruption and complained, just stared back at the foreman, "What do you call me?" ”

"Jill" "''Mr. Jill'"

"I'm not trying to make things difficult for you, I don't have the right to make things difficult for you. But remember, I have the right to choose who I pay for. Do you understand? ”

"Yes, Mr. Jill," the foreman bowed impatiently, "but, sir, look at that fellow, look at him like that!" ”

"You go first", Jill waved his hand to let the foreman leave, "I'll see for myself".

After the foreman departed, Jill stood behind Ivan.

I saw Ivan tense his muscles and pull the bellows a few times.

When the wind blew in, the whole stove turned red, and the flames flew with splashing sparks.

Ivan walked over to the stove and grabbed a hammer and struck a quick iron tool.

Under Ivan's hammer, the iron was quickly unfurled, and under Ivan's hammer, the iron gradually revealed its appearance like the mud of a child playing with it. Jill paid attention to it, and the person who started making a tool with Ivan had not yet reached seventy percent of Ivan's size, and Ivan had suddenly put the tool into a water tank, and a rough shovel came out of the oven.

"What a fine workmanship," Jill clapped her hands in praise.

When Ivan heard the voice, he glanced back at Jill, wiped his hands with his apron, and then stretched out his hand.

A craftsman stretched out his dirty, sweaty hand to shake hands with the foreman, which was obviously a bit unruly.

Jill saw Ivan's hand stretched out, hesitated slightly, smiled, and squeezed Ivan's hand.

"Come out with me, Mr. Ivan".

Gil took Ivan into a common room and told Renault to get some water and get some food for the old man.

"You're not a blacksmith".

"Whew".

"Your hands, and your eyes: too delicate, not for a man who has been a blacksmith all year round."

"Finally there is someone who knows the goods."

"Ivan, I've heard you more than once. I observed you when I was a craftsman. You first tried to get the old foreman's attention, but he ignored you and hated you. By the time I sat down in his place, you stopped moving, and I guess you're watching me in the dark. What's the matter, why did it attract my attention again, I passed your inspection? ”

"Hmm" "Basically qualified."

"Uh, pretty good," Jill cut to the chase, "You must be doing it for a purpose." You want me to reuse you, huh? What are you capable of? ”

Ivan was silent for a moment, "How much can you let me use?" ”

"Tell me about it."

"If you let me alone, then I can help you save more than 100 pieces of wood and make more than 90 farm tools every month; If you ask me to take a team, I can leave the other teams far behind; If you let me take charge of all your craftsmen, I can make you no longer worry about paperwork and bills, and crush most of the foremen in half a year! ”

"What a big breath."

Ivan smiled, a Wiki-style grin, "I dare to say, can you believe it?" ”

Renault came over and watered the two, and Jill noticed that Renault's expression was a little lost.

Jill came to his senses.

"Dare. But I need to hear your story. ”

Ivan's eyes burst into flames, but they immediately went out, and he said in an astringent voice, "Good." ”

The two-hour conversation passed quickly, and Jill listened to Ivan's story and was silent.

After Ivan finished speaking, Jill still seemed to be in a daze. Soon, Jill woke up in contemplation and said, "You are the new foreman of the team I led. Let me see what you're capable of. ”

After sending Ivan away, Jill didn't have time to think about it, and immediately went to find the site inspector.

"I want iron".

"You advanced money just a few days ago, and now you want to come to get iron? Got money on hand? ”

"No, all the money in my hand has been spent, and I want to continue to play white slips."

"You'''?'!"

"Sir, if you will let me lift the iron from the site warehouse," said Jill, approaching the Inspector, "the little money I promised you last time was for the beggars. ”

"I'm already a little suspicious that I'm looking at the wrong person, you know?" The Ombudsman said dissatisfiedly, "I hate it when others keep asking for it without reciprocating it!" ”

Jill showed a simple smile, and there was a faint force that could not be justified in the smile, "Sir, I have no intention of explaining this matter, I believe and respect your judgment. I can only assure you that if you can continue to increase your investment in me, I will benefit you. ”

"Let me benefit? How to benefit? I've heard that you've got a woman in Fendra, and you've got a bunch of pimps to come and burn down your carpentry shop. You're in constant trouble, and you're still trying to benefit me? ”

"Sir, I admit all of these things. But have you ever thought about what additional benefits I would bring you if I were to follow the steps like any other foreman, in addition to paying you some monthly payments in addition to paying you a share of your monthly due? ”

The Ombudsman raised his eyebrows, "Don't say these useless things. Why should I believe you? Give me reasons. ”

"Sir, a few months ago I was just a good-for-nothing little craftsman with a lame leg. But now, I'm a foreman who can support women, as you say. A few months ago, could you have thought of this? ”

"Hmm", the Inspector was a little silent, and after a while, the Inspector showed a somewhat tricky expression, "The procedures will be difficult, and it will take a lot of people to get the iron out of the warehouse." ”

"You can do it."

"Bastard, are you provoking me?"

"Oh, well, you didn't promise me you could do it, but I'm sure you can."

“``````”

"Sir?"

"Okay, how much iron do you want?"

Night.

At dinner, Jill found Ivan.

"From today onwards, start with your team and produce iron tools at full speed. If you can double your production in 10 days, I'll let you take everyone crazy, whatever you want. ”

"Everyone? Are the raw materials enough? ”

"Well, your team, as long as you can keep them from rebelling against you, you can drive them as you like. Iron raw materials, you can go directly to the warehouse to pick up the goods, and use as much as you want. ”

"When does it start?"

"Let's finish eating."

"What to eat!? Take me to my team now, and I'll give them a mission tonight! ”
