I Have a Dragon Island - Chapter 168

[Chapter 168 Enthusiastic Townspeople]

Yu Bu took a quick glance at the list in his hand, put it down, and turned to look at Tommy.

“Tommy, go and inform everyone about the school first. Our village school will open in three days, and we must let the townspeople bring their children to attend school… Oh, and you don’t have to pay tuition for the time being. And this, just post it on the notice board.”

Tommy was about to nod when he suddenly heard Yu Bu say that he didn’t have to pay tuition, and he was overjoyed.

Afterwards, he took the notice from Yu Bu’s hand with some suspicion and was immediately shocked.

…

The next morning, a group of people gathered around the bulletin board in Fengming Town.

They stopped in front of the notice board, all with deep doubts in their eyes.

“What is written here? Who can read it?” asked an old man.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone shook their heads.

Glancing around, Tommy was not there either. It was obvious that he was helping the Baron.

Just when everyone was getting curious, an old man suddenly walked by.

“This old gentleman!”

A young man quickly called out to stop him.

This person was none other than Wilder, the teacher who had just arrived in the town yesterday.

At this moment, he was in a trance, recalling yesterday’s experience and was in a daze.

Suddenly I heard someone shouting, so I subconsciously turned around to look.

“What can I do for you?” he asked.

The young man scratched his head very embarrassedly and explained it.

When the latter heard that he was asked to read the notice, he suddenly realized and walked forward.

The group hurriedly made way, and Wilder finally reached the notice board.

“Well, this is a recruitment notice.”

When the townspeople of Fengming Town heard this, they were stunned for a moment, and then they were overjoyed.

“Haha, the Baron is planning to recruit again. Great! I will definitely not let go of this opportunity this time!”

“Humph! Last time I missed it, my wife scolded me terribly. This time, I will help the Baron even if I have to shamelessly do it!”

Hearing this, Wilder was a little stunned.

The people of Fengming Town are so enthusiastic? He thought.

Logically speaking, this kind of situation would not occur in the barren land of Fengming Town.

Even when their Lanyang City announced the recruitment, there were people who were unwilling to accept it.

Rudolf even occasionally issued orders to forcibly recruit people to do things, and there had never been such a proactive public.

As he thought about it, he looked down.

“The Baron wants to recruit soldiers. Oh, and he also wants to pay them.”

Wilder continued to watch as he spoke. He did not notice that when he said the word “salary”, excitement appeared in everyone’s eyes.

“Oh, each soldier’s salary is… one silver coin per month?!”

As Wilder was speaking, his eyes widened, his face turned red, and he screamed like a rooster with its neck pinched.

What kind of soldiers! The reward for a knight can’t be so generous! How rich is this new baron!

Wilder was terrified, and when he thought about what he had seen yesterday, he found it extremely absurd.

Is there something wrong with this new baron’s brain?

He just felt his head buzzing and his head was spinning.

Such a wealthy noble would actually come to such a poor and shabby town.

With this money, if you use it to make some connections, you can at least be assigned to a very wealthy town.

Who would be willing to come here and suffer this?

The cheers of the crowd were still ringing in his ears, but Wilder had no intention of staying any longer.

He gritted his teeth and walked straight towards the village entrance.

When he saw Liehuojing yesterday, he sent his servants back to Lanyang City to explore the background of Baron Fengming.

Considering the time now, it’s time for me to come back.
