After hearing the noble Lord's words, all the free people put down their work and swarmed over.
They have little organization and discipline, so they stand quite unorganized.
As far as the eye can see, the team is very stretched.
Chris shouted: "Brown, Sanji, Hank, come out!"
Three middle-aged men walked out of the crowd, their eyes full of doubts.
"From today on, you will be my stewards, and your daily salary will be increased to three silver coins."
Chris' words were like a bombshell hitting the minds of the free people, and they looked at the three people in front of them with envy.
Brown, Sanji, and Hank quickly knelt down and said: "Thank you, sir!"
Reputation from Brown is 15, Reputation from Sanji is 16, and Reputation from Hank is 13.
Although the reward is the same amount of money, their degree of gratitude is different and the reputation points generated will also be different.
Chris chose them because of three considerations.
First of all, their hands and feet are nimble and they work well and quickly.
Secondly, they have a certain prestige among the free people and can serve as stewards to convince the public.
The third and most important point is that they provide more reputation points than other free folk.
It was through system prompts that Chris remembered the names of the three people.
He continued: "In the next few days, you can elect five squadron leaders and fifteen squad leaders. Give the list to me, and I will decide whether to promote them. The daily salary is two silver coins and one silver coin respectively.
silver."
The crowd was in an uproar, and whispers could be heard.
"Wow, two silver coins a day is comparable to the four days we have been working now."
"Not only that, you can also manage people. Even if you ask me to be a squad leader, I am willing."
This blockbuster information fermented among the crowd.
After a few minutes, Chris pressed his hand and everyone shut up.
"Okay, now let's start the division of labor. Hank, take a thousand people to cut down trees, Sanji, take people to weave rattan, and Brown, choose some people to build a house."
"yes!"
"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"
The three of them said in unison.
The crowd was divided into three waves, surrounding Brown and others, waiting for them to speak.
It was as if those freedmen had been given a shot of chicken blood, their work efficiency increased several times, and they rushed to do all the dirty and tiring work.
Chris was free again. He leaned against a big tree and chewed grass roots.
Now he has obtained more than 6,000 gold coins from Kenzat, which is enough for him to spend a long time.
Shiloh looked at the young man under the tree with admiration.
A simple reward completely changed the appearance of those more than 3,000 free people.
First, three prestigious stewards were promoted, and then they were given the right to elect captains and squad captains.
The remaining free people will not be jealous of the status of the three people and secretly hinder them. On the contrary, they will express themselves as much as possible and win the qualifications to be elected as squadron leader and squad leader.
This move is simply brilliant. If Shiloh were the lord, he would never have thought of such a good method in his life.
Now everyone, including Shiloh, is free and not as busy as before.
Until dark, in just two hours, these free people built 300 thatched houses.
The thatched houses were very simple, with wooden sticks as the walls and straw as the roof. They only served as a shield from the wind and rain, but they were very satisfactory to the free people. A layer of hay was spread on the ground, which could be used as a bed to sleep on, which was better than theirs.
Living in a slum is quite comfortable.
······
At night, dozens of bonfires burned outside the castle.
Three thousand freedmen gathered around the fire and ate white-flour steamed buns with relish.
"Sanji is in charge. I am strong and can endure hardships. If you have anything to do, just give me your orders."
"Brown, we have been friends for many years."
"Hank in charge, I'll give you this steamed bun, I'm not hungry."
The three people who had just been promoted to stewards naturally received the favor and support of the free people.
After Chris finished his dinner, he walked out of the castle and called the three Browns to him in front of everyone.
"Do your best and I won't treat you badly!" Chris put three silver coins into Hank's and the others' hands.
"Thank you, sir."
"Okay, everyone else comes here to collect today's salary. It's best if both of you receive a gold coin together." Chris faced the crowd.
Hilo took the prepared roster and had been waiting for a long time.
Three thousand people lined up in three teams, neatly in front of Chris.
After they receive their wages, Shiloh will tick the corresponding name.
Reputation from Jade 1, Reputation from Cruze 1...
It took Chris a full hour and a half to pay out all the wages.
But the harvest was huge. He gained a total of 2,950 reputation points.
Because many people are receiving wages for the second or even third time, they gradually get used to it and no longer generate reputation points.
And as time goes by, the reputation points Chris obtains every day will gradually decrease, but it will not be a big problem until he is promoted to a third-level magic warrior.
The carnival didn't end until late at night.
The freedmen dispersed one after another, and the bonfire was extinguished.
Chris also returned to his small room. With a thought, the system panel unfolded in front of his eyes.
Name: Chris Jordan
Level: Second level magic warrior
Reputation value:7612/12000
Task: As a qualified baron, you must have enough people under your command to develop the territory. Please expand the number of people under your command to 2,000 (completed).
Progress:3272/2000
Mission rewards: Brick kiln construction drawings, brick-burning techniques (can be collected)
After recruiting 3,060 people, plus the original 200 people in the territory, the total population of Hope Town reached 3,272.
Originally, Chris wanted to control the population to less than 3,000 people, but Kenzat gave him a large sum of money so that he could do so without any worries.
Today's reputation value increased by 3,000 points, which is really great.
Chris's current reputation value is more than 7,600, and he is still 4,300 points away from being upgraded, which is what happened in the past few days.
"System, I want to receive the reward."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a small dark vortex appearing in front of him.
Pieces of white paper fell from it.
Chris put the papers away, there were two hundred pages.
Moreover, white paper is much more delicate than parchment paper, so it is obviously not a craft of this world.
Chris took a brief look and found that there were a hundred pages of brick kiln construction drawings, and the rest were about the brick-firing process, including the ingredients and the production process.
Different from the red bricks in the previous life, the brick-burning craftsmanship rewarded by the system is in line with this world.
Many of the minerals originate from the Magical Continent.
"I don't know which era of civilization the blueprints the system created out of thin air came from?" Chris held the blueprints in his hands and lowered his head in thought.
Perhaps, he will have to wait until he becomes the strongest person on this continent in the future to solve the mystery behind the system.
