Chapter 13 (2/2)

Joshua immediately found Mortimer and said to him, “Stop what you’re doing for a while.”

Then, Joshua took a piece of white paper and wrote on it.

[From tomorrow onward, the village will begin to recruit labor workers. A salary will be paid on a daily basis and there will be two meals a day. Those who are interested can register at the designated location!]

Looking at the notice written by Joshua, it seemed that Mortimer knew just what Joshua was attempting to do!

“You want to recruit people through this method?”

“Of course!”

“Our previous workers aren’t on a salary right now. If you recruit people like this, the people on the construction site will be very dissatisfied!”

“The solution to that is simple. From tomorrow onward, the skilled workers on the construction site will be given five times the salary of ordinary workers.”

Mortimer thought for a moment and felt that this method was feasible!

This would not only increase the circulation of money but also make them more motivated.

“Young Master Joshua, I’m really sorry to have to trouble you with these things!”

Joshua waved his hand and explained, “Actually, I’m here today for the construction of the farmland and breeding grounds.”

Hearing this, Mortimer immediately took out the documents that needed to be reviewed.

“Everything is here. Young master, please take a look! I’ll help you put up the notice now.” With that, he picked up the notice on the table and walked out.

Looking at the thick construction plan, Joshua flipped through each and every one of them carefully.

After more than half an hour, he signed all the things on the table that needed to be approved.

After he was done, Joshua sat down on the chair. He could not help but remember that he had still been on Earth just a few months ago.

At that time, other than work, he was playing games. Life was so boring. Now, he had become the village chief.

He suddenly felt that he had fallen in love with this kind of life!

Not long after, Mortimer walked in with the form. He smiled at Joshua and said, “Young master, your method is very useful! After these people saw the notice, most of them at the scene quickly signed it! There are now a few hundred recruits for average laborers. What should we do with these people next? They have never even built houses before!”

Joshua thought for a moment and said, “Tomorrow, you will bring the matter of salary to the construction site in advance and talk to the workers there. Record down their identities and classify them as skilled workers.

“After recording all the skilled workers, you can then let the ordinary workers in. If we operate in this way, we will be able to obtain a large number of craftsmen! In the future, no matter if we’re building a village or a large town, we will not need to worry about the manpower needed.”

Hearing Joshua’s words, Mortimer immediately took action.

Seeing that Mortimer had been busy by himself, Joshua said to him, “It’s really too hard for you to work alone! You can choose a few races with a higher level of education to help you work!

“While you’re at it, train more talents. I have a feeling that our town will become bigger in the future!”

After hearing what Joshua said, Mortimer recorded this matter in his work notebook.

Once he had given out all the instructions, Joshua went straight to the office.

At this time, the noisy people outside had completely dispersed. They had already returned to their own homes to prepare for work the next day.

Looking at the village that was getting bigger and bigger, Joshua felt as if he was in a dream.

If it wasn’t for the pain he felt when he pinched himself, he would have thought that he had been in a very long dream!

“It seems that I, as the village chief, also need to work hard!”

On his way back, there was a shadow in the darkness observing him from the dark, confirming his every move.
