Start As a Lord In a Viscount
Chapter 387 Disadvantages of Agricultural Towns
However, it can also be seen that the tauren live here is not bad, at least there is no oppression.
Just when Claire wanted to ask further questions, there were footsteps behind her. Looking back, a group of people were rushing towards Claire.
The one in front was a boy of sixteen or seventeen, but the person in charge who had just met Claire chased after him, not wanting the boy to come and contact Claire.
Claire blinked, and in an instant, a lot of things about the corruption of the local person in charge, which caused the people to live in poverty, came up in his mind.
The person in charge at the back was chasing him desperately, but it was clear that the speed was still not as fast as the boy who was running at the front.
In the end, the boy stood in front of Claire, pursed his lips, and looked up at Claire nervously. At this time, the person in charge behind him also caught up, grabbed the boy's hand, and shouted out. .
"Harry, don't make trouble, come back with me." Then he gave Claire an apologetic smile and kept nodding and bowing: "I'm sorry Viscount, we'll leave now."
Then he pulled the hand of the boy named Harry hard, but the other party stood there in a daze, unmoved.
"Harry!" The person in charge's tone rose several times, and the expression on his face was also anxious to death.
Claire reached out and stopped the other party, "Don't worry, I want to hear what he wants to say?"
"Lord Viscount..." The person in charge opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything, and finally put his eyes on Harry.
But Harry suddenly got stuck at the moment, watching Claire stop talking, not knowing what to say.
Finally, looking at the person in charge standing beside him, Claire squinted and said, "It's alright, just say it, if you don't say it, the problem will never be solved."
"Is it possible that you want to run up to me and show your face?"
Hearing Claire's words, Harry also seemed to be encouraged again, closed his eyes, and shouted loudly as if he was going out of his way.
"Lord Viscount, I don't understand! Why can't our Gilded Rose Town compare to other places!"
After shouting this sentence, Harry's suppressed mood seemed to be released, and he shouted out all the words he was holding in his heart!
"Didn't you say it well at the beginning! After coming to the town of Gilded Rose, you can live better than before, but why are Brother Anthony and Brother Kent unwilling to stay here and go to Nafu City to make money. "
"And Dad said that although a lot of grain is being grown now, the price of grain has dropped a lot compared to the past. Everyone has put in more hard work and effort, and the money they get in the end is still the same as before. I don't understand! "
The person in charge watched from the side and almost wanted to reach out to cover Harry's mouth. Can this be said casually?
After Claire's eyes flickered a few times, she asked, "What did your father tell you? Who is your father?"
As soon as Claire finished asking this sentence, the person in charge put Harry behind him and said with some fear: "Lord Viscount, I'm Harry's father, I'm sorry! I shouldn't have told him this!"
He had to be afraid. What Harry said was equivalent to saying that the agricultural town that Claire created was not good at all. He was slapping Claire in the face. Gamble with your child's life.
So he continued to explain: "Lord Viscount, what Harry said was one-sided, there are still many people who are willing to stay in the town of Gilded Rose, and everyone was not full before, but now they are satisfied. …”
"Don't worry, I'm not asking for accountability." After Claire comforted the other party, she turned around and asked, "Hammer, isn't the money you earn from farming here enough for your life?"
Hammer shook his head and nodded, "I can only earn half of it, after all, we eat a lot, but we still have other jobs, we can go to Nafu City to do construction, and we can also Helping everyone to farm or something, so it’s still possible.”
Hammer's words are not very informative, so Claire turned around and continued to ask: "If you are the person in charge, you should know more about how much a family in the town of Gilded Rose can earn in a year. money?"
After thinking for a while, the person in charge replied, "Four or five gold coins."
After speaking, he was afraid that Claire would get angry and added, "Before I came here, there were only about three, so it's an increase."
After Claire heard this, she understood what Harry just said.
There are at least four or five people in a family. With four or five gold coins, each person can earn only one gold coin per year on average, and the current per capita income in Nafu City is about ten gold coins, even if it is comparable to the town of Gilded Rose. In Najin Town of the same level, the per capita income level is also around five or six gold coins.
And now the Gilded Rose Town is more than five times different from the people in other places, how can it be possible to retain people!
Nafu City and Najin Town are not far from here, but those who have the ability after adulthood will not choose to stay here, but go to those two places to find work.
Of course, except for the Tauren, they don't have very high material needs and can eat enough to eat, and besides farming, they can also go to Nafu City to move bricks to earn money, which is far better than the lives of the people in these gilded rose towns.
After the gradual loss of young people, the town of Gilded Rose will sooner or later become a highly aging place, and people here are all relocated, and no sense of belonging has been established in such a short period of time. Maybe this place will be in the future. Turning into a ruin is not in line with Claire's initial vision. He intends to turn this into an agricultural town.
There is also the sentence Harry mentioned later, the people here have more food, and the price will be relatively lower. It is obvious that they have paid more hard work, but the money they have received is not as much as before. Who can stand it? In previous lives, there were many fruit farmers who would rather rot their fruit in the ground and not sell it.
If there are too many goods on the market, their prices will naturally decrease. This is the law of the market, and Claire cannot change it. Of course, he can invest to buy those agricultural products, but this is not conducive to the subsequent development at all. It is impossible for the whole town. So many people need to rely on Claire's relief to survive. Then why build this town? Go back to the countryside.
Claire looked at the crowd who came to watch the fun and asked, "Is your current income enough for you to live?"
"Enough, I'm fuller than before."
"Thanks to the Viscount, it is better than before."
"But..." Someone in the crowd muttered, "But who doesn't want to earn more, I heard that the kid from the Gene family earns more than our family in Nafu City."
"..." After those words came out, the scene became silent.
Just like what Harry just said, these problems have been exposed in front of everyone, and almost everyone in the town is aware of it, but they are unable to change and can only suffer silently.
