System: Build My Own Territory

Chapter 229: Janet Arrives (10000)_3


With a 'ding' sound, the bait fell into the river.

On the river's surface, there was only a piece of softwood float, gently swaying with the flow of the water.

While Lynn was focused, engrossed in fishing.

At the same time, on the other side.

Carriages, under the gaze of the town's residents, drove into Morgan Town.

Traversing the cobblestones, passing through the town, the carriages finally entered the high walled area behind a three-story building.

Boer dismounted from horseback, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

Through several corridors in the warehouse, he entered the trade hall.

Boer looked at the guard beside him and said, "Guard Captain, immediately ride to Frank Manor to find Lady Janet."

"Just say the mysterious Lord has agreed to meet her."

Receiving Boer's instructions, the Guard Captain responded without any unnecessary words, bending over, "Yes, Master Boer, I will go personally right away!"

Boer nodded.

Let the Guard Captain withdraw and handle it immediately.

Boer walked towards the second floor of the trade hall, thinking about its development.

But soon.

Boer brushed away the worries in his mind.

His fortune was entirely dependent on Master Lynn!

Buy goods to go to Master Lynn's territory, then exchange them for fine salt to sell and gain profit.

It can be said that he is attached to Master Lynn, and even willing to be the leech that lets him suck.

Or rather, he is like grasshoppers on the same string.

If anything happens to Master Lynn, and other lords occupy the territory behind the city wall.

He certainly would not be able to exchange for fine salt at such a low price anymore!

A bold idea emerged in Boer's mind—he must do something for Master Lynn!

From the recent exchanges, he certainly knows that what Master Lynn needs most now is grain.

He also knows the fundamental reason why Master Lynn needs grain—his territory has not yet produced grain on a large scale.

Of course.

As Master Lynn's biggest grain supplier.

Boer knows better than anyone that Master Lynn has already planted over two million pounds of seeds.

Now, he is only waiting for July and August for the summer harvest!

Then the grain problem on Master Lynn's territory will be resolved.

For transporting grain, he has already been making efforts.

However, due to transportation issues and the decrease of grain in the market.

The grain he can buy and transport is still limited.

How else can he help Master Lynn?

Thoughts quickly flashed through Boer's mind.

Climbing the stairs, he arrived at the second-floor corridor.

Boer stood in the corridor, with both hands resting on the railing.

Watching the busy figures hurry across the cobblestone road below.

In the next instant.

Boer's eyes lit up, "Got it!"

"Labor force!"

"Besides grain, what Master Lynn lacks most is labor!"

Since transporting grain won't lead to a significant increase in quantity.

He can fully employ the Free People in the town and send some labor to Master Lynn's territory!

Thus, he can help Master Lynn.

Boer suddenly recalled that Master Lynn had asked him to do this before.

But because there wasn't enough manpower, while purchasing grain from various places, he had to also transport it to Master Lynn's territory.

And at that time, it was during the busy farming season.

Most Free People had labor contracts with manor lords.

It was very difficult to hire many Free People.

Back and forth, he forgot about this matter.

But now, it's different.

Spring planting has ended, and many Free People who have voided their labor contracts with the previous manor lords have started looking for work.

Plus, with the favorable living conditions on Master Lynn's territory.

Boer believes that as long as he employs them in the name of the trade hall, there will definitely be plenty of Free People willing to go to Master Lynn's territory!

Thinking of this.

Boer didn't hesitate and sent someone to find Holland.

Holland came to the second floor and seeing Boer sitting on a wooden chair, he went forward.

"Master Boer, is there something you need from me?"

Boer cut straight to the point and said to Holland, "Mr. Holland, I need you to help me with something."

Holland raised an eyebrow, "Master Boer, please tell me."

Boer said, "Set up a hiring booth at the entrance of the trade hall and start recruiting Free People."

"I need to hire a large number of Free People!"

Holland, a bit puzzled, said, "Master Boer, please forgive my boldness."

"If I remember correctly, the staff within the trade hall should suffice for its operational activities."

Boer didn't mind, and said, "Holland, I know this."

"Just do as I say boldly."

"As for pay conditions, regardless of whatever position, all food and accommodation will be covered! And salaries according to the base pay of the original role!"

Ordinary Free People, one penny a day.

Artisans, depending on ability, can earn two pence or one penny a day.

Food and accommodation will naturally be in Master Lynn's territory.

And he doesn't mind paying the Free People wage from his own pocket.

Even if he hires a hundred people, at an average of two pence per person per day, it will be two hundred pence.

In a month, it will be twelve hundred pence.
