Throne of Vientiane Civilization

Taking into account Xiao Li's reminder, Locke temporarily selected fifty young and strong people from the tribe.

The tribesmen picked them out on the first day, and the carriage came the next day. They took them away on the same day and sent them directly to the logging team and wood processing factory in Green Forest City.

Before setting off, Xiao Li also reminded Locke that it would be best to stuff three silver coins into each of them.

When you get there, you will definitely need to buy some daily necessities on the first day. At the same time, when you get there, your salary will not be paid until next month, so they still need money to eat.

Locke nodded after understanding the situation, and then asked hesitantly.

"Are these three silver coins enough?"

"..."

Obviously, Locke's values ​​have been distorted by the previous one hundred thousand silver coins. In fact, he still holds thousands of silver coins in his hands.

After thinking about this, Xiao Li adjusted his emotions and quickly explained.

"According to the price of goods in Green Forest City, an ordinary person's normal expenditure on food and drink for a month is only one silver coin plus twenty or thirty coppers. And they have employee meals, which are cheaper. As long as they don't spend randomly, three silver coins are enough. They eat it for two months.”

"..."

This time Locke was silent.

"Are there actually so many three silver coins?!"

"..."

In any case, Locke followed Xiao Li's suggestion and gave each clan member three silver coins before letting them board the carriage heading to Greenwood City to work.

When he arrived at the place, after Xiao Li quickly arranged for fifty wood elves to join the company, he went to find the manager and gave a few words of advice. It was considered that he had retired, and he didn't need to worry about the next thing.

On a new day, before it was fully light, there was a "dang-dang-dang-dang" sound outside the dormitory. The wood elves who were paralyzed on the beds in the dormitory were confused. The captain who had arranged to stay in the same dormitory with them had already moved them. Wake them up one by one.

"Get up! I won't have time to have breakfast if I wait any longer!"

While he was shouting, the captain had already put on his clothes. When the wood elves heard that they had breakfast, they also woke up one after another.

In fact, they are not used to getting up early.

As mentioned before, they used to need to get up early for hunting, and they got up even earlier than now.

It’s just that I was lying on the bed in the dormitory last night, thinking that I would live here, work here, make money and live here. Everyone was so excited that they couldn’t sleep. They tossed and turned until midnight, so this I was very confused for a while.

After changing their clothes and briefly washing up, the captain quickly took them to the employee canteen next door for breakfast.

It is worth mentioning here that although the logging team and the wood processing factory are two units, they are both under the jurisdiction of the Construction Engineering Department. Therefore, the dormitories of the two units are in the same place, and the employee canteen is also in the same place. Next to the wood processing plant.

Because the wood elves didn't move fast enough, there was already a long queue in the canteen, and they were at the end of the queue.

However, the lady who prepares meals in the cafeteria moves very quickly, and it doesn't take much time for them to get their turn.

"Staff meals or order them yourself?"

After glancing at the wood elf holding the dinner plate, the cook asked quickly, and then immediately added.

"Employees get one copper for their meal, so they have no choice."

This price is undoubtedly a discount for them.

Although the wood elves are used to being extravagant, they are not stupid either.

There were only three silver coins in his pocket, and he spent nearly fifty coppers on daily necessities, pillows, bedding and other things that day. Now that things were happening, he naturally wanted to try the one-coin employee meal first.

After hearing this, the rice cook made him a bowl of soy milk, two large steamed buns and a small plate of pickles without saying a word.

For the wood elves who basically have two meals at the restaurant every time they come to New Year's Eve, this breakfast is quite simple.

The taste is definitely not comparable to that of the restaurant, but it is cheaper, costing only one copper. This makes the wood elves feel quite good, and they are not uncomfortable as expected, and the food is even delicious.

After all, if you think about it carefully, they eat in their own villages most of the year, which is not as good as this meal.

They just have money and like to enjoy themselves, but they have no problem with their brains.

For now, although I can't afford to eat at Manxianglou, if I spend one copper and have breakfast like this every day, it would feel pretty good.

After a simple breakfast, under the leadership of the captain, the wood elves quickly rushed to the open space to gather for roll call.

Then the members of the logging team took the carriages used to transport timber directly to the woods outside the city to start the day's work.

At first they didn't think there was anything wrong.

Isn't it just a matter of cutting down the tree, briefly repairing it, and then moving it to a carriage and transporting it away?

They used to do this kind of work in the village.

Of course, before the morning had passed, they had already realized that the work intensity on both sides was completely different!

"It's terrible, it's terrible. Just to cut the wood so far, in the village, it would take at least a week."

At this moment, one of the wood elves was seen panting and leaning against the trunk of a big tree, unable to speak clearly.

When another wood elf working in a team with him saw this, he also put his hands on his hips and looked at the sky with tired eyes, doubting his life for a while.

"Why do you think we come here to work? Is it too late to go back now?"

"..."

Listening to the frustrated words of the tribesmen nearby, the wood elf leaning on the big tree was waiting to respond.

Just then, the captain came over.

"What? How many trees have been cut down just now? Is this not going to work?"

At this time, the captain's tone was a bit incredulous, as if he had never seen such a good person.

When the two wood elves heard this, they stretched their necks and stood up straight.

"Who? Who is dying?"

"You can't do it anymore?"

"not me!"

"Isn't that okay?"

"Not me either!"

Looking at the two wood elves singing and singing, the captain's mouth twitched unconsciously.

Being sent to take these wood elves to work, he naturally has a mission.

Long before this group of wood elves came over, the captains responsible for leading the team had already done their homework.

The elves are a race that values ​​​​face very much and has strong self-esteem. In other words, as long as you stimulate them a little, sometimes it can have miraculous effects.

Facing such a battle at this time, the captain also laughed "haha" twice.

"Well, why don't we compete? If your workload exceeds mine at the end of the day, I will treat you to dinner, and you can order whatever you want from the canteen."

When the wood elves heard this, they immediately became excited.

And the result can be imagined, it cannot be compared, it cannot be compared at all!

Although they didn't get the captain's dinner, the wood elves felt like they were alive after eating the food they bought, as if the fatigue accumulated throughout the day was greatly relieved.

"Damn! This is what labor and management live for!"
