Noble Emblem
595 Try every means to recruit talents
Waking City is in desperate need of talents...especially trustworthy talents.
Angel's arrival at least solved the problem of etiquette teaching for the female priest students. To be honest, when people work, they have to pay some reward. Beta approached Angel about this matter, but Angel refused. Her eyes like blue springs were full of scaly light: "I don't lack gold coins, I just want to help you. If you really want to thank me, you can come and chat with me when you have time."
Beta is not a boy who doesn't understand anything. He understood what Angel meant, but he could only pretend that he didn't understand. He smiled very superficially and formally and said that he would visit her more often in the future.
This made Angel roll her eyes helplessly.
Another half month later, Emma's body fully recovered. Although she still wanted to stay in Waking City, her sense of responsibility as a saint urged her to prepare to go to the front line again.
Let Beta teleport herself back to Esnes City. Before Beta was about to enter the teleportation magic circle and leave, she suddenly said: "My mother used to be a queen, so occasionally she will be willful. I hope you can take it for my sake." , don’t be angry with her, okay?”
Looking at Emma's reluctant expression, Beta nodded.
Teleporting back to Watkin City, Beta grinned helplessly. Emma was worried about her mother...that was completely nonsense.
Anji'er was born into a poor family when she was young, and later became a queen. She was used to the overt and secret fights between the royal family and big aristocratic families, and she also understood the interactions between people in this world. In fact, she knew how to behave, and when she was a queen, she had the qualities of a queen. Now that she is no longer the queen, she can also position herself correctly. What Emma is worried about will not happen at all.
For Anji'er, these two words, adapting to the wind and being versatile, are not derogatory, but complimentary.
The days that followed were uneventful. Beta was busy dealing with trivial matters in Waking City. Although other people were responsible for many things, as a lord, he should still know some basic affairs and trends in the territory.
Not long after, Amanda returned with more than 3,000 female slaves.
A long procession caused a sensation when entering the city. The bachelors gathered on the roadside and looked at the dirty female slaves with shining eyes.
But no one dared to step forward and make a move. Although Watkin City is very friendly to civilians, the laws are also very strict for those who violate the rules or criminals. Besides, not many people are fools. Now that these women have come to the city, they I definitely want to live there. There will be plenty of opportunities to pursue and entangle with me in the future. There is no need to leave a bad impression now.
More than 3,000 female slaves were allocated simple little houses and became ordinary citizens. Beta gave them the most basic daily necessities. Each of them was given a silver coin and a small field. Summer has just entered. As long as they work harder and plant whatever they want in the ground, they won't starve to death even if they run out of silver coins.
Moreover, it is still a long time before winter, so they can take time to weave clothes for themselves. When spring starts tomorrow, they can plant some crops, and their lives can go on year after year.
In addition, these female slaves were mediocre in appearance and had no cultural specialties, so Amanda was able to buy so many female slaves back. It can be said that she had almost wiped out all the female slaves near Watkin City. With the addition of three thousand female slaves, the atmosphere in Waking City suddenly became more energetic. Those bachelors who had nothing to do before now began to clean up themselves intentionally or unintentionally.
In addition to these three thousand ordinary female slaves, Amanda also brought back three 'high-quality goods', a female elf, and two so-called queens of fallen nobles.
These three women were all very beautiful, but Beta looked at them for a while, then turned to Amanda helplessly and asked: "What is your purpose of buying them back?"
Amanda smiled bitterly and said: "I bought more than three thousand female slaves, and the three of them are gifts..."
"Three of them are obviously the finale, but they are actually gifts?" Beta clicked his tongue: "Your bargaining ability is also quite strong."
Amanda said proudly: "Although each of them is worth twenty gold coins, compared with the big business of three thousand female slaves, their value is a bit low... Well, what are you going to do with these three people?"
Beta thought for a while and said to the three slightly nervous women: "Lady Elf, let's not worry about whether the other two ladies are literate or have any special skills."
One person nervously replied: "I know the languages of three countries."
Another person stuttered and replied: "Wan... I am good at handling accounts. I used to help my family with their accounts and business."
Beta thought for a while and said, "I can let you go, or I can give you the status of a free citizen, but the premise is that you must work for me for two years, how about that?"
The two daughters of fallen nobles were naturally very happy, but the elf looked disgusted.
"I will not work for lowly humans."
"Oh, it's okay not to work. Are you elves all such ungrateful people?" Beta smiled: "If you admit it, I can let you go immediately."
The elf gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "Okay, you win, what do I need to do?"
"You and the lady who knows three languages will work as teachers in our school in the Holy City for two years." Beta looked at the stuttering girl: "You can serve as my tax accountant and assist a man named A Reese’s Teenage Job.”
The three of them breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that it was serious work.
After Shirley left with the three of them, Amanda asked doubtfully: "Is Watkins City already so short of manpower?"
Beta nodded: "There is no way. There are too few talents among the citizens now, so we can only find ways to introduce them from outside."
"If you don't mind, I can ask father and his subordinates to come and help."
Beta asked: "A chamber of commerce moves here? What price do I have to pay?"
"The lowest title?" Amanda said with some guilt: "As long as the title is enough, no real power is required."
As a lord, Beta could indeed ennoble the five lowest barons.
From Amanda's ability, it can be seen that her father and his subordinates should have good talents. If they are willing to come and help, the title can be given, but it cannot be given so simply.
"There is no good thing about getting a title as soon as you come here." Beta said bluntly: "But we can sign a contract. If your father can meet the conditions I gave, then I can give him a baron. ”
Amanda's eyes lit up: "What conditions?"
It’s no wonder that Amanda is excited. Going one step further and becoming a true noble is the biggest ideal of almost all businessmen.
