Chapter 939: The Road to Construction (III)

The snow stopped earlier than expected.

The day after Jenn led the men to White Rock City, the snow slowly weakened and stopped. And Jenn didn't waste any time, he quickly assigned tasks to those succubius who were born as priests in the future agency, and then quickly conveyed it. And the succubi's movements are also very fast, it only took them half a day to come to the village near White Rock City, and these succubi have only one thing to do.

Hiring.

For the farmers, the winter is idle, but it is also busy. Of course, this mainly depends on whether there is a good harvest or not. If you have surplus food in your hands, then this winter can pass leisurely. But if the year is bad, then you have to go out to work, or go to the mountains to hunt to make ends meet.

This year's harvest was not too bad, and everyone was happy that the attack of the Kingdom of the Golden Eagle had been repulsed, and the king had announced that the general grain levy had been waived. Therefore, the citizens of White Rock City have been quite nourishing this year. However, farmers always have to work, and it is not in their nature to just sit at home and eat nothing. Some capable hunters will choose to occasionally go up to the mountains to hunt a wild beast and skin it and sell it in the city, while others will also take advantage of this time to find some side hustle to do. Among them, working for the nobles was also an option -- and because of this, when the priests went to recruit workers, many people were eager to join in.

But it soon became clear that it wasn't that simple. Because they have a lot of work to do. At present, there are three villages and towns outside Baishi City. What was needed to recruit workers this time was to build tall stone walls on the periphery of all three villages and towns, and to carry out a series of reconstructions and expansions. Although there is no need to recruit workers to quarry and pave the road, the amount of work is also huge. And according to the priests, they were also responsible for building a tower that was more than ten meters high. This project is normal on the Klein Continent, but it is already considered difficult here. For a while, many people also retreated in the face of this severe construction deadline, after all, the priests made it clear that because the construction needed to be completed throughout the winter, it was necessary to work from morning to night every day, and it even took more time than farming. And it's still winter, and the cold weather is also a big obstacle.

But again, the pay is also very good.

The priests had promised that anyone who worked would pay less money and food for the next year, and that they would be paid one silver coin a day. Those who work hard and perform well will even be exempted from taxes for the next year!

As soon as these words came out, everyone who had not made up their minds suddenly made up their minds, anyway, they were idle in winter, they could get a silver coin every day, and if they did well, they might be exempted from taxes for the next year. Such a good thing usually can't be begged for, besides, isn't it just work? Working in the field is also work, moving bricks is also work, what's the difference? And these beautiful girls also said that the reason why these were built is to protect their homes. Although the army of the Kingdom of the Golden Eagle was repulsed this time, because of the previous order to avoid the sweep of the army of the Kingdom of the Golden Eagle, King Lalit had to bring all the civilians in the villages and towns to the White Rock City, so that although it was safe, after repelling the army and returning home, many people found that their houses and property were smashed and looted and burned by those damn soldiers of the Kingdom of the Golden Eagle, and some people didn't even have a house to live in. Therefore, they are also eager to protect their homes, so they are very enthusiastic. Even some people from all over the family went into battle, after all, although it was said to be recruitment, but these beautiful girls also said that they not only had to recruit workers, but also recruited some people who were responsible for food and chores. The yellow-faced woman at home can't move bricks, but she can cook and cook, right? And one person can earn one silver coin a day, isn't it two for two people? Anyone can do such a simple math.

Of course, there is a reward and a punishment, in the face of the excitement of the people who came to apply, the priests also said the punishment, each person's daily work is quantitative, if someone just takes the money and does not work, then not only will his salary be deducted, but he will also be asked to compensate for the losses caused by his inaction, if the consequences are serious, even be imprisoned!!

The hard-working farmers had no problem with this, but those who were too lazy to do it and just wanted to mix in and make a small fortune retreated. Although they saw that those priests all looked very good at talking, they also wanted to go up and entangle them with dead faces, and some even tried to be rude. However, it is a pity that as orthodox priests from the Klein Continent, the attack power of these succubi themselves is not comparable to that of ordinary people who fight the five scum, and the succubus itself is proficient in language arts, as a result, those hooligans who are entangled with dead skin and face not only take advantage, but are almost committed suicide by jumping off the building by the succubus with a sarcastic sneer, even if they are angry and ashamed -- they will be easily thrown aside by the succubus priests.

Not to mention that there were a few "golden holy clothes" coming from behind to cover up, and no one came to trouble again. Everyone started to get to work seriously.

And Jenn, at this time, he can finally be idle.

"Master, why do we want these people to live so well?"

Snuggling into Jenn's arms, Aina's eyes widened in curiosity and she asked. As succubi, they certainly knew Jenn's true identity. Because of this, Aina and Tillise are curious about what Jenn is doing right now. In their opinion, it would be normal for Jenn to choose to brainwash these people and turn them into slaves. But for now, instead of planning to convert them into slaves, Jenn even said that he wanted to give them a better life, which made Aina a little puzzled.

The master of his own house is the demon king......... If you are so miserable, then you will become a god?

"Aina, whether you are doing well or not does not have any conflict with our essence."

Feeling the soft and petite body in his arms, Jenn also chuckled. He reached out and touched the half-elf girl's chest, causing Aina to let out a moan. I saw the half-elf girl clinging to Jenn's body more and more, as if she was feeling his heat. Now, after reconvening his subordinates, Jenn has finally ended his previous boring "abstinence" life and began to enjoy it again. He wasn't worried about what Nabellius and Vivien would think about it, for them, an existence like Aina and Tillise was like Jenn's pet cat and dog, nothing to pay attention to. On the contrary, it is the existence of Tinidel that really poses a threat to them.

Speaking of Tinidel, the Dark Elf Princess was badly injured after that battle and is currently recuperating from a slumber in Passus. For now, Jenn can only hope that the Dark Elf Queen will not come to the door to ask the teacher......... Although she can't find herself, she just can't find herself.

"Letting others live a good life does not mean that they will be bent on good, you see, just as in our world, those nobles enjoy themselves every day, and live better than anyone else, but they do not become good people with all their hearts, on the contrary, because they have more resources at their disposal, they will become more and more eager to protect their own interests -- and they will do whatever it takes."

"So ..............."

Hearing Jenn's answer, Aina frowned, thought for a while, and then spoke curiously.

"So, the master means that if more people's lives become better, they will be more inclined to evil?"

In the face of Aina's answer, Jenn smiled and said nothing, full of warm thoughts**** can be described as an enduring famous aphorism left by the ancestors. Even in their highly developed society, all kinds of criminal acts are common. The owner of the dance hall makes them take drugs in order to control his young ladies, and the professional beggar breaks his children's arms in order to beg, human nature is evil, and this kind of thing will not disappear because of the progress of human civilization and the improvement of social living standards. On the contrary, with the development of civilization, the influence of individual evil will become greater and greater. Hundreds of years ago, a suicide bomber had no influence at all. And now a suicide bomber only needs to run to a densely populated street and pull the lead, then it is enough to cause panic in the whole society. The development of civilization, while bringing convenience, has also reduced the cost of doing evil, but has increased the impact of evil. So for Jenn, there is no conflict between developing a civilization and leading it in the direction of evil.

"That's pretty much it, Aina, you're getting smarter, too."

"Hee-hee-hee-hee........."

Hearing Jenn's praise, Aina also giggled.

"Thank you for the compliment, after all, I have been in charge of those troublesome dead people with Tilis these days, and I have made some progress."

"That's right."

Hearing Aina's answer, Jenn smiled and reached out and untied the girl's chest.

"So, I should give you a little reward..............." (To be continued.) )
