I Have a Dragon Island - Chapter 160
[Chapter 160 Shocking Recruitment]
“Come and get old Tis! He’s been to school and knows these words!”
Everyone talked at once, and then turned around to look for Old Tis.
But someone immediately realized that Old Tis had already left with the crowdfunding in the early morning.
At this time, another old man who looked highly respected came out.
He coughed lightly, cleared his throat, and then turned his gaze to Tommy.
“Um, Tommy. What does it say here?”
The old man asked tentatively, and everyone quickly perked up and listened attentively.
Tommy turned around and looked at everyone, but didn’t answer immediately.
He looked around first, then chuckled.
“This is the notice that the Baron asked me to post. It’s about the construction of Fengming Town.”
Before he finished speaking, a middle-aged Chinese man snorted coldly.
“What construction matters? This is just a disguised form of exploitation of us!”
As he spoke, the man turned and looked at Tommy again.
“Tommy, you were born and raised in Fengming Town, how could you help the new baron to do evil?”
Tommy frowned when he heard this.
Fengming Town is located on the border of Bauhinia Country.
So these people were used to speaking without thinking and actually pointed out the baron’s mistakes directly.
Under normal circumstances, Tommy would have joined them in cursing.
However, at this time, he had obviously been conquered by Yu Bu, so naturally he was dissatisfied with the middle-aged man.
Just when he was about to say something, the respected old man raised his hand and pressed it gently.
Then he turned and looked at Tommy.
“Tommy, what does it say here? Read it out to everyone.”
Hearing this, Tommy thought about it and nodded.
He looked at the man’s expression and snorted in his heart with some dissatisfaction.
When I tell you what the Baron means, I won’t scare you to death!
He complained in his heart and read out all the clauses on the notice.
For a moment, everyone around was stunned.
The dissatisfied middle-aged man was dumbfounded and stunned, as if he had seen a ghost.
On this notice board, the people who were originally making a lot of noise suddenly shut their mouths.
When they heard what Tommy said about recruitment, they all stared in amazement and almost stopped breathing.
A long while passed.
The respected old man just stared at Tommy with wide eyes.
“Tommy, are you serious?! A mere bricklayer can receive 80 copper coins as salary! A carpenter can also receive 80 copper coins?! And there are others…”
As he spoke, he recalled the types of jobs Tommy had just read out.
All of them can receive extremely high salaries.
This time, everyone woke up from his exclamation.
“Tommy, you are not making fun of us, are you? Or have you been bewitched by the new baron?!”
An old woman walked up to Tommy tremblingly, her face flushed.
When Tommy saw this scene, he suddenly felt unhappy.
“Humph! You guys are just mean-spirited people! As a resident of Fengming Town, I love Fengming Town just as much as you do! How could I joke about this matter!”
Tommy took a breath and continued, “To tell you the truth, the reason why we evacuated the residents in the east of the town was to renovate Fengming Town. The Baron said that if we want to build Fengming Town well, the houses must be able to shelter from wind and rain. He has already prepared everything necessary for building houses! And you actually…”
