The lord's tax collector was given a great reception in Norrenberg, which Vincent had expected.

After decades of rule by the Red Wing Earl in the local area, the impression of the ruthlessness of the blood clan has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it has a superior status.

Even if the earl has run away with the money now, it is difficult to change the status of the blood clan in people's minds immediately, after all, it is still the demon clan that governs in the final analysis, and no matter how bad the reputation of the blood clan in the clan is, it is not something that the human race can provoke.

Next, it's up to Cecil to investigate the Nolen family's wealth, determine the amount of tax based on the property assessment, and then use imagination and violence to collect the wealth.

If he can't receive it, Cecil won't give up easily. It was her first serious job.

As always, Vincent has a job to do.

As the temperature continues to drop, and the sea mouth that the lord boasted about before is now on the verge of cashing, the lich leader Kant reminds Vincent that there are still three days before the date to distribute warm clothes to the lords.

In the past, the lord didn't care whether the people were dead or alive in winter, because no one except the gods would be responsible for whether the people froze to death.

Since the lord has always kept his promises since he came to power, not only improving the people's livelihood but also bringing peace, when he announced that he would provide winter clothes for the people, no one thought he was joking, although he thought it was an exaggeration.

"Is the transport of the velvet still going well?" Vincent's face was still calm, "I also went to the garment workshop yesterday, and the progress of the work in it filled me with confidence."

"I heard that you continue to ask for women and children to be hired there, and the recruitment has not stopped." Kant seems to have been aware of this, "The name of the workshop is 'Family Welfare Workshop.'"

"That's right, it's my arrangement." Vincent nodded triumphantly and admitted, "Women and children are human beings, and their men produce for us in the workshops and already have an income to feed the whole family, so why not make it higher?"

"Someone slandered you for wanting to take away a man's wife and daughter, and used them as hostages, and this kind of talk may have spread from the female cadres lurking in the people." Kant thought about it for a moment, but decided to report something that might be displeasing to Vincent, "I have ordered an investigation into this."

"I don't bother to explain that if anyone believes it, then it would be better to let the women go home," Vincent replied lazily as he leaned back in his chair, "I want to see who has to get along with the gold coins."

Indeed, whether it is welfare or not, the people of Silver Dragon Fort naturally know.

With the economic take-off of Silver Dragon Castle, various workshops and shops are in urgent need of manpower, and a large number of people from the surrounding areas have come to the capital to beg for a living, providing a considerable amount of labor for the local area, but in addition to the main male force of the labor force, there are more family members who have also come to Silver Dragon Castle.

It is inevitable that the lords will drag their families to come with them, but only men can become laborers, and others can only do housework at home and wait, and the greedy demons in the lord's castle can't stand it.

Even in this era, men and women are not equal in social status, but there is no difference in the value created by work, so how could the lord not allow women to work in the workshop to earn gold because they are not valued?

When it comes to extracting labor, the devil is not influenced by worldly ideas, and when it comes to recruitment, men and women are treated equally, even teenagers who have nothing to do.

It just so happened that the garment workshop had recently had a big business to provide at least 50,000 sets of winter clothes of various sizes for the lords who had achieved great successes, and the purchased clothing had been prepared, and it was necessary to cut, sew, pile and thicken and iron them according to the requirements.

This time, Vincent, however, made a clear announcement that women would be recruited, since men were mostly working in places where more labor was required, and they lacked skills such as weaving and sewing.

The minimum age for garment workers was relaxed to 12, not because the younger children were reluctant to work in the factory, but because the lord had taken care of the efficiency and safety of the lord.

As a result, Vincent relied on the method of recruiting women workers on a large scale, without affecting the supply of labor in other industries

There are thousands of workers, which basically satisfies the labor force for making clothes.

In order not to let his big words be slapped in the face by reality, Vincent also carefully planned the process stations in the workshop based on his experience in his previous life, and rubbed a lot of more convenient mechanical tools, so that the workers could get started in a shorter time.

The entire workshop is divided into stations for material retrieval and distribution, fabric cutting, fabric sewing, detail processing, ironing, quality inspection and product packaging, each department is managed by a special person, the lich and the magician provide the necessary technical support, and there are demon dogs and guards as guards outside.

At first, the inexperienced women and child labourers were worried about whether they would be able to do the job, but they soon discovered that the management and treatment were different from any workshop they had heard of.

In addition to the busy working hours, the meals and rest times are provided in between, and the wages are quite generous, and if the whole group exceeds the processing quantity, the piecework wage is not even inferior to that of the husbands and brothers who work hard outside.

Perhaps women's physical strength is relatively low, but they can make up for their shortcomings with meticulousness and patience, making each piece of clothing thick and comfortable, and the thought of these clothes about to be worn on themselves and their families fills their hearts with gratitude to the lord, and their work becomes more and more meticulous.

When people feel low on energy or have difficulty concentrating, not only will someone cheer and encourage, but there will also be a mage to perform a blessing magic of the spirit uplifting type to bless them, which can be said to be something that people have never seen in this life, and it is worth bragging about in the future.

According to the grapevine, a large number of shares in this workshop belong to the bishop of the church, so there will be a church priest in disguise in the workshop, but the authenticity of this matter is unknown.

There were no demons and monsters in the workshop, and it did make the workers fearful at first, but they soon discovered that the simple work in the garment workshop and the skeletons that carried the work were definitely a good idea to save time and effort, and the other monsters were just doing their own jobs and would not affect their work.

The most special one is the extremely rare Ice Demon Beauty Xuela, who is the head of the workshop, and is said to be the former teacher of the lord, who has the magical power to harmless the dangerous and flammable velvet moss raw materials.

It is only after her treatment that the magically sealed velvet moss turns into a slowly heated state, becoming a safe filler.

She once said that the velvet moss is also one of the most dangerous plants in the Demon Domain, and it can only be wasted by magic suppression, and it is a miracle that it can be used in large quantities here, and it can also be turned into a gold coin that is urgently needed in her hometown.

Now the entire ice field is praising the good name of the six princes, and there are also many ice demons who come here, willing to contribute to the cold chain logistics of the lord, greatly reducing the storage cost of seafood and agricultural products in the territory.

After a few days of trial production, the production of the ready-to-wear workshop has gradually stabilized, and now it is able to produce 2,000 winter coats per day, which is still a little low from Vincent's expectations.

After all, whether it is a gift for the census or attracting more people to settle in the local area, it is only a short-term benefit, and this kind of cheap winter clothes that turn harm into treasure should become another fist product of Yinlongbao to earn foreign exchange after meeting its own needs.

Just two days after the winter coat giveaway began, Vincent received urgent information from the Harpy, who was inspecting the second phase of the expansion of the Spider Farm underground with the lich leader Kander.

After reading it, Vincent handed the letter to Kant, and this is the trust that the lord has in his heart.

"The tax collector has been kidnapped?" Kant was also surprised, "How dare you kidnap her, don't you want to live?"

"Yes, yes, if education is not done well, there are many stupid people in the world," Vincent sighed, "The kidnapping of Cecil must be the bravest thing they have ever done in their lives."

With that, Vincent pulled out the cannes of the Campresian ratchet, and the sound of the unsheathed thunder startled the big and small demon spiders to scatter and flee.

"Order the troops stationed in Oak Village, prepare to act as planned."
