Chapter 589 Recruiting players and building a market
She hadn't spoken for a long time, and the area chat had been filled with discussions about the Misty Rain Market. Upon hearing her words, the players immediately responded:
"Wow, they're hiring! Boss Lu is hiring again!"
"Lu Xingchen's salary is really good, 10 gold coins per hour, and if you work 10 hours a day, that's 100 gold coins a day!"
"That's right, 300 gold coins in three days! What else can you do to earn 300 gold coins!"
"Wow, I've been saving up gold coins for so long, and I only have a little over 200. And I got this many just from building a house? That's amazing!"
"Haha, you guys are still discussing it? The smart ones have already signed up!"
"Hehehe, too late, they've already recruited enough people. They only needed 200, but I heard 5,000 people applied!"
"Killing a pirate only costs a few gold coins, and you might not even be able to kill him. But you get 10 gold coins an hour. I wonder how many people are vying for this job!"
Lu Xingchen has already recruited all the people he needs.
There was no way around it, there were just too many people! In just over ten minutes, she had recruited enough people.
Qin Wuchuan and his group were there. They said they would work for free and didn't want any gold coins.
A group of people quickly arrived and joined Ba Wu Ba Liu's team.
The more people there are, the faster the progress.
Lu Xingchen calculated that the flower beds and trees should be fine in three days.
She now has another matter to deal with.
Umbrella!
The village truly lives up to its name, with several rain showers every day. The drizzle is so light that you'll likely get soaked if you don't bring an umbrella.
Therefore, raincoats and umbrellas are essential items.
She has been able to make a raincoat.
Raincoats are indeed useful, but because they are made of plastic, they can feel a bit stuffy when worn.
Umbrellas are more useful.
Unfortunately, she had never seen the umbrella blueprint.
Unable to find it in the trading hall, Lu Xingchen had no choice but to shout in the chat channel: "Does anyone have an umbrella making blueprint? I'll take one!"
Many people replied in the chat channel, but unfortunately it was all just casual conversation.
No one has the umbrella blueprint and no one knows how to make an umbrella.
After shouting twice more, someone contacted Lu Xingchen.
Ye Ling: "Boss Lu, we can make oil-paper umbrellas. Do you want to buy them?"
Oil-paper umbrella?
Lu Xingchen's eyes lit up. The oil-paper umbrella and the misty village were a perfect match.
She immediately replied, "Yes!"
Ye Ling was delighted: "How many do you want? We have 70 or 80 oil-paper umbrellas here. If you need any, we can make them right now!"
Lu Xingchen thought about it and realized that it rains every day in Yanyu Village, and at least half of the people who come here need umbrellas.
There are a lot of people at the market.
Lu Xingchen: "Go ahead and make them. I need at least a thousand. By the way, how long does it take to make an oil-paper umbrella?"
Ye Ling: "It will take at least 7 days because there are many steps involved. Some may even take 20 to 30 days. However, we have ready-made materials here, so it can be done faster."
Lu Xingchen: "Seven days?"
It's been a bit long.
It's just enough.
Lu Xingchen asked: "Is there any way to speed up the production process?"
Making oil-paper umbrellas requires processes such as drying and airing. We should be able to find a way to speed up the process. After all, this is a survival world, and everyone has a lot of good things in their hands.
Ye Ling hesitated for a moment: "Speed it up? Five or six days?"
Lu Xingchen replied, "Hurry up, I'll give you 100 gold coins for each umbrella!"
Ye Ling's voice trembled with excitement: "100 gold coins?"
Lu Xingchen: "Well! You can hurry up and make a batch first. I don't have high requirements for the materials. Just enough to block the rain. The later ones can take longer, about two or three weeks. This time must be quick."
She paused and said, "If you are short of manpower, you might as well find some people."
