Within their territory, the rabbits ruled the underground, while the foxes ruled the surface. The fox cubs were more resistant to winter temperatures than the rabbits.
Qin Yiyi needs to clear land, train archers, and build houses during the winter, requiring a large number of people throughout the winter.
"Those with prior cooking or architecture experience should apply first! Priority will be given to those with experience in both above-ground and underground construction!"
Aside from the advantage of newly registered people receiving job introductions and being assigned according to demand, all other applicants are selected based on merit, and the rabbits and foxes will conduct another round of screening.
"Anyone exceptionally skilled at archery? Fill out this application form first. We'll train an archery team, and the benefits are excellent!"
"Those with basic cooking skills can tell us. We are vigorously cultivating culinary talent and developing canteens within our territory. Those with cooking experience can contact us. We can allocate rooms in the basement during the winter. For those in the culinary industry, we can even discuss compensation for zero-pollution food. If you are interested, come to me!"
"We are hiring a large number of plumbers, mechanics, and gas technicians for the winter. Applicants must have relevant work experience, preferably more than one year. Their main job will be to perform emergency repairs during the winter!"
Because of the extremely low temperatures, it snows for at least 60-70% of the time in the entire territory. Due to the long duration of snowfall and the resulting snow cover, many of the temporary power stations that were built due to insufficient materials have encountered problems. In order for the normal operation of the territory, it is necessary to ensure the operation of water, electricity, and gas!
"Any job openings for maintenance workers? I've done all sorts of emergency repairs! Plumbing and electrical repairs are no problem, and I can also build new base stations!"
Someone volunteered and received a registration form as soon as he finished speaking.
"Your abilities are quite good. Register first, and we'll tell you about the salary and benefits. If you think it's good, you can take the job!"
They never force anyone and all adhere to the principle of voluntariness. The salary and benefits for each job are different depending on the job content. Although they are short of people, the lord has emphasized that priority should be given to those who will fight for themselves!
The recruitment locations weren't necessarily all staffed by Qin Yiyi's people; other residents within the territory also came and put up signs to recruit.
"I'm a distributor of electric blankets. We can discuss this if you're interested!"
There are also merchants in the territory who have acquired a batch of electric blankets at the beginning of winter. These things are not available in the early stages of winter and are all hidden away. The price of these items will start to rise in the middle and later stages of winter.
The rabbit and the fox looked at the goods in the merchant's hands, exchanged glances, and then ordered their men to urgently notify Sid.
Winter has only just begun, and some people are already taking advantage of the environment to prepare for their businesses, choosing locations and starting to sell their wares!
"Anyone willing to form a team in winter? Price is negotiable, as long as you're willing to form a team in winter!" This is the gene of a weak animal, but Jia should have a little money and wants to hire one or more security guards.
No, I have a little money, but not enough to hire security guards, so I chose to team up with a large group to ensure my safety when traveling in winter.
"Teaming up in winter is also to ensure our safety. After all, robberies happen in Chaotic City day and night in winter, and the number of robberies is significantly higher in winter than in other seasons! But please rest assured! Such a situation will not happen in our territory!"
This is also explained in the territory rules!
During winter, the price of goods sold within the territory cannot be increased by more than XX percent. During winter, there are four shifts of security guards on duty within the territory, day and night, not counting the separate gatekeepers.
Currently, the ground territory is surrounded by four large gates and eight small gates. Each gate is guarded by four ground security guards and two aerial security guards hidden in the trees or the nearest building. The underground area has been expanded to four levels, but only three levels have been officially constructed. The fourth level is still empty. Each level has only one entrance and exit, and each entrance is guarded by four people.
In addition, the underground warehouse and the ground warehouse are each guarded by three separate teams, with twelve people in each team working in three shifts.
Even with this level of security... Qin Yiyi was still not satisfied.
"This equipment is already the strongest in the surrounding territories. I'm not exaggerating; your setup is even better than Chaos City's. Don't be fooled by Chaos City's size; it only relies on its walled city walls for protection. In reality, the security inside is terrible. Chaos City only has about a hundred legitimate private soldiers, while our territory has over a thousand registered private soldiers and security personnel. To put it bluntly, if things go wrong during this winter, we could take over Chaos City!"
Ox-Head, Horse-Face, and Deer Antlers followed Sid as assistants and were considered elders in the territory, although their arrival was somewhat dishonorable.
They had witnessed the development of the territory firsthand. In a short period of time, it had become the largest territory in the surrounding area, and even at the beginning of winter, its facilities were already better than those of Chaos City.
"Who knows, after winter we might be able to apply to the Emperor for the title of town. If that's the case, your position as baron will at least be promoted to viscount or earl!"
"Let's set aside the size of the territory and matters related to titles for now. I've called you here to solve the current problems in the territory. The first is the housing problem. Originally, we had enough houses to live in, but with the arrival of more than 10,000 elves, it's simply not enough. And people are still arriving in winter. Currently, there are 100 people a day, but in a few days, when the temperature drops again, there will be a peak. It is estimated that several thousand more people will arrive in total this winter. Where will these several thousand people live? That's a big problem!"
