Chapter 22 Start work!

Chapter 22 begins!

The sky had just brightened, and the noise of the crowd could already be heard in the Armis Mountains.

Eight production teams from the salt field had already moved into the newly built work shed at the foot of the mountain as early as yesterday afternoon, and now they are gathering in the open space in front of the work shed.

Today is the day when the construction of the Sky Garden officially starts. Although Old Ford was reluctant in his heart, he came early. After all...a huge amount of money and food will be spent on this huge project. Why don't you come and take a look?

I really feel a little sorry.

Clearing his throat, standing on a flat rock, Old Ford said loudly: "The Earl has already told you about the rewards you can get for building this project, so I won't repeat them one by one. In addition, every time

Each production team will be assigned two supervisors to record the work points you receive."

After casually talking about the details of calculating work points, Old Ford asked someone to help him slide down the rock. Professional people do professional things, as Bruno had told him before.

Old Ford was mainly responsible for providing logistical support such as grain, grass, gold coins, etc., and reviewing the calculation of work points daily. As for the more specific work, the craftsmen of Idar City were responsible for it.

In order to build the Hanging Garden, almost all the stonemasons and carpenters in Idar City went to work. In order to recruit these craftsmen in the winter, Bruno also paid a high salary.

The general person in charge of the project is named White Barrel. The lord's castle where Bruno lives was built under the leadership of his great-great-great-grandfather, who can be regarded as the most famous craftsman in Idarland.

A week ago, when White Barrel took over the drawings from Bruno's hand, the middle-aged man in his thirties almost burst into tears... Over the years, since the construction of the Lord's Castle was completed, successive Counts of Idar

They were all extremely diligent and frugal, and no large-scale buildings were built in Idar territory.

Until Bruno Stuart became the new Count Idar and decided to build a magnificent hanging garden at the eastern foot of the Almis Mountains...

For White Barrel, Bruno is simply his great nobleman!

The exquisite drawings, abundant funds and manpower, and the support of the entire Idar Territory made White Barrell so eager to try that he was so excited that he couldn't express it in words.

He looked at the drawings carefully, and White felt that only a genius could draw such a beautiful architectural style and construct such a precise and fitting architectural structure.

He is 100% sure that if this magnificent building is completed by his own hands, then he can even become the most famous craftsman in the entire eastern empire!

Lord Bruno...he is truly the most respected and admired noble!

Compared with Bruno, the other aristocratic masters who only know how to eat, drink, whore and gamble are obviously weak. Look at Bruno, this is nobility, this is emotion...

At the beginning, White only thought that this drawing was really amazing, but when the construction officially started, White Barrell realized that this drawing was tailor-made for this location!

From the distance between rocks to the curvature of every corner, everything is exactly right!

But what surprised White Barrel was not only the mystery of the drawings, but also the enthusiasm of the serfs!

According to White's past understanding, most of the serfs who worked in winter were lazy, and they could only drag a little bit, and their efficiency was extremely low. But here, on this construction site, White felt as if he was dazzled...

This was the first time he saw serfs rushing to work. What used to take a long time to complete now only takes a little over two hours!

Here, the overseers did not need to use whips to urge the serfs to work, because no serf was lazy at all, which seemed incredible to White.

Each production team is equipped with two supervisors. They hold paper and pens and record the serfs' work progress from time to time. It is said that this is used to assess rewards.

Each of the eight production teams has its own division of labor, some are responsible for transporting wood, some are responsible for mining rocks, and some are responsible for felling forests. In short, the serfs have no resistance to these.

Each production team has a team leader who cheers on the members of the same production team while doing the work at hand.

Well done, there's meat to eat!

This simple sentence is firmly rooted in the heart of every serf...



Bruno yawned and stretched out slowly from the quilt.

Last night, Bruno had been thinking about magic. He tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. It was about two or three o'clock in the morning before he fell asleep holding the quilt.

I looked through the window sill and saw that it was almost noon.

He got up in a hurry and asked the cook to make a bowl of clear soup noodles, which Bruno ate with hiss.

Bruno naturally knew that the construction of the Hanging Garden was officially started today, but he was not ready to go there. After all, White and Old Ford were there to watch, so he felt relieved that these two people were working.

After returning from the salt field, Bruno felt relaxed for a while.

After all, the problems of funds and food have been successfully solved, but the construction of the hanging garden cannot be completed overnight. Instead, it has time to experience the life of the nobles in this world.

However... there is really a lack of entertainment in this world. After thinking about it for a long time, I still don't know what to do.

"Someone is coming!" Bruno shouted.

"Here we come, sir." A strange face came up to him.

"Who are you? Where is Lópida?"

"Lopida...oh, back to the master, Mr. Luobida stayed at the beach to take care of the salt farm and fishing. Mr. Sabi is also busy shoveling shit these days, so the old housekeeper asked the villain to take care of it.

Sir."

"What's your name?" Bruno asked casually.

After a while, the man said: "Li...Liszt."

"Liszt? Piano Prince Liszt?" Bruno joked.

There was another moment of silence, and then Liszt said: "I didn't hear you very well..."

"..."

"Go down first and find me the blacksmith. When you come back, pour me a glass of wine." Bruno ordered.

"Let's go"

After a while, Liszt came back with a glass of wine.

"Where's the blacksmith?"

Liszt was suddenly startled and said: "The villain forgot..."

After that, he quickly ran out.

Looking at Liszt's back, Bruno only felt that this guy... seemed to have a little trouble with his head...

Liszt ran in a hurry and happened to meet old Ford on the road.

"Where are we going..."

"If you want to meet the old housekeeper, he will ask me to find a blacksmith."

"Go quickly, don't delay..." Old Ford said with a smile.

"oh."

After Liszt left, Old Ford couldn't help but smile knowingly.

Liszt is the personal valet he specially selected for Bruno. This kid... is dull and honest by nature. He should never give his master random ideas like Shabi and others...
