“But, that reward is really too attractive.
Five taels of silver a month, including food and accommodation, so you can save all the money. In addition, after five years of service, you will also be given a house.
That’s so generous, it’s worth the risk.”
A man dressed as a scholar next to him couldn't help but nod.
"Brother, what you said makes sense. I also think it's worth a try. I just don't know if I can be successful in the application.
Alas, although I am a scholar, I have never taught and have only worked as an accountant for a few years.
However, I still want to give it a try."
At this time, a carriage stopped.
"Muzi, is there any new news? Why are there so many people watching?" A young man opened the curtain of the carriage and looked at the signboard.
"Sir, please wait a moment." After saying that, he jumped down and ran to take a quick look.
“Sir, this is a recruitment notice and a city opening announcement.
It seems to be from the Northern City."
Qiao Mu also went to school with his master, so he can read and write.
"Northern City? Has it been completed so quickly?"
Qiao Yu knocked on the wooden table in the carriage.
He had previously said that he wanted to set up a Chamber of Commerce branch in Northern City.
It should be about time.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "Muzi, let's go back first, pack up and prepare, and head to Northern Border City."
"Ah? Oh, okay, sir." Qiao Mu was a little confused, but he could only obey.
The young master is a bit playful and likes to do whatever he wants.
After the carriage left, more and more people gathered around the signboard.
Nowadays, it is easier for literate people to find jobs than ordinary people.
You will also earn more money.
However, there are many scholars in Beili City, so the competition is naturally fierce.
Five taels of silver a month is still rare.
Not to mention that food and accommodation are provided, it's pure profit.
What's more, after five years in office, he actually had a house.
This condition is indeed very tempting.
I just don’t know what the future holds?
However, in any era, the timid will starve to death.
Opportunities are given to those who are brave enough and willing to try.
One of the people who just spoke thought for a while.
Finally got attracted.
So, he glanced at the person next to him and said, "Brother, are you interested? Let's go together. This way, no matter what happens, we will have someone to take care of us.
Do you agree, brother?"
The person who heard this, his eyes lit up and he responded immediately.
"Brother, I and I have the same idea.
I have exactly this intention and invite you to come.
Anyway, if I eat well, my family will not be hungry, so it is not impossible to go to the North to have a look."
So, the two of them agreed on a departure time and went back to prepare.
These two people are Liu Qing and Hong Liang, who will be very famous in the future Northern Territory Academy.
( ′? ? `? )σ???
Shen Yinyun's speed was also very fast, because he had been dealing with the people of the city for the past few months and was very familiar with everyone.
On this sunny afternoon, a bustling crowd gathered at the city gate.
Shen Yinyun calmly placed a sturdy wooden table there and quickly put up a huge and brightly colored oil-paper umbrella.
He thought it would be more eye-catching this way so that everyone could see it at a glance.
Shen Yinyun cleared his throat and began to shout at the top of his voice:
"Dear fellow villagers and friends, the opportunity to make money has come again. Plant flowers and trees in our Northern Border City and make money easily.
Those who are willing to participate line up, regardless of gender.
Register one by one, don't rush, take your time.
Remember to report on time tomorrow at noon, don't be late."
This shout didn't matter, the news spread as fast as it could spread with wings.
Word spread from one to ten, from ten to a hundred, and from a hundred to a thousand, and it didn't take long.
A long queue of hundreds of people had formed at the originally empty city gate.
Not only men can participate in this event, but women can also take part in it.
Planting flowers and plants is extremely easy for those who work for long hours.
Therefore, in addition to many strong and powerful men in the queue, there are also many young girls and hardworking and capable middle-aged women.
For these women, being able to earn money through their own labor is undoubtedly a joyful thing.
After all, who doesn’t want to add an income to the family?
After these few months of close contact and interaction, the common people in the northern border have more or less known about Master Shen and City Lord Xu, and have a general idea of what kind of people they are.
Because of this, everyone is particularly willing to participate in various construction projects in the north from the bottom of their hearts.
On the one hand, you can get real wages to supplement your family expenses;
On the other hand, it means that the days ahead will become more and more prosperous and promising.
Today, the newly built houses are well-arranged and beautiful, and the entire city is built in a magnificent and majestic manner, which makes people feel happy and moved when they see it.
Just as Master Shen and City Lord Xu said at the beginning.
If they want the Northern City and its owner to protect them for a long time, as a member of the city, they naturally cannot sit around doing nothing and enjoy the fruits of others' labor.
If that happens, they will be expelled from the North sooner or later.
If you want to live a good life in this city, you must do what you can for it.
Moreover, they can get corresponding remuneration for the work they participate in.
When they actually received their wages, they were so excited that their eyes were filled with tears.
You know, they haven't received any wages for a long time, even if they work themselves to death.
The oppression and humiliation of the past made them feel that they should live one day at a time, or even die early to be free.
However, today, the situation has changed dramatically.
They welcomed that ray of hope and developed a strong desire to survive, longing to settle down and live a happy life here.
Because of this, whenever Xu Wenzhi and Shen Yinyun announced any activity, the whole city would participate.
This is also what Jiang Ling said at the beginning:
There was no greed in their eyes, only a desire to live.
However, the work of planting flowers and trees can be done by both men and women.
As a result, a neat and orderly line was formed. No one was impatient and no one cut in line to grab things.
This is because everyone knows that as long as they meet the requirements, they will not be left out and there will be work to do.
Because they are not short of money.
On the contrary, the more people join, the better.
In the end, the number of people who registered to participate in tomorrow's tree planting activity reached thousands.
Shen Yinyun was very excited, as there is strength in numbers.
If all goes well, it will only take three to five days at most to plant all the flowers, plants and trees.
In the next few days, Jiang Ling either practiced or went to the city.
Witness this vigorous tree planting craze with your own eyes.
Jiang Ling looked at the city, and saw that the streets and alleys were full of people working.
It is a bit like the modern annual Arbor Day.
