Transmigrated To Ancient Time: Thrive With An Auction System!-Chapter 214: Rumors ( 11 )

Opening the box, Yao Zhi saw several glass jars that had been used to store soap and toothpaste before. She accepted the box and looked at his complexion.

After a moment, she said, "It looks like these things are really useful. Brother Da Zhu, you look much better now."

Da Zhu scratched the back of his head and replied shyly, "Thanks to Young Master Lei’s items, I managed to get a wife. We got married just 1 month ago."

Hearing this, Yao Zhi was surprised. She cupped her fists and said, "Congratulations, Brother Da Zhu. I didn’t know about this good news and came empty-handed today. Tomorrow, I will bring a good gift for you."

Da Zhu waved his hands and said, "No, no, no. You have helped me get a wife. How could I accept your gift again? I should be the one treating you to a drink."

"Brother Da Zhu, you are too polite. We can be considered friends now. It’s only right for me to congratulate you and your wife properly!"

When he heard this, the burly man’s eyes reddened, and he said hoarsely, "Young Master Lei, you are really a good person. From today onward, I, Da Zhu, will be your younger brother!"

The moment he finished his words, he knelt on the ground on 1 knee and shouted, "Brother Feng!"

Soon after he called her, a group of men entered the hall, led by Luo Bo. Everyone was stunned when they saw the situation inside.

Seeing them, Yao Zhi quickly helped Da Zhu up and said, "Brother, I’m younger than you. How can you be my younger brother? You should be my elder brother."

With his honest mind, Da Zhu agreed immediately. "Younger brother, from today onward, I, your brother, will protect you. Even if I have to climb a mountain of knives or cross a sea of fire, I will definitely protect you well."

Meeting his firm and determined gaze, Yao Zhi smiled and nodded.

Luo Bo and the others were looking at them with doubt. After a while, they finally regained their composure and walked over.

"Young Master Lei, Da Zhu, what’s going on here?"

Yao Zhi cupped her fists and greeted them, "Master Luo, everyone, long time no see."

They returned her greeting, and one of them asked, "Young Master Lei, are you here to hire our services again?"

"This time, I plan to hire everyone long-term," Yao Zhi nodded.

When they heard this, they exchanged glances. Luo Bo gestured for her to take a seat and said, "Young Master Lei, can you please tell us more about your plan?"

After everyone sat down, Yao Zhi finally said, "Master Luo, I just rented the warehouse I used previously and the land around it. I’m not a local, and I need to hire a lot of people to help me build a wall enclosing the land, repair the warehouse, and expand it."

"Since we have worked together before, I came to ask for your help in hiring people to build the wall. Their daily wage is 15 wen, and they can start working whenever they are ready."

"Besides the workers, I also want to hire you and your brothers as bodyguards to guard the warehouse and land. I plan to build a workshop and dormitories. I understand that everyone has families and is unwilling to live apart, so I can build houses for everyone."

"You can stay in the houses for free with your family. Your wage will be paid monthly at the rate of 20 wen per day. You will also receive a stipend of 100 jins of grain, 5 jins of meat, 30 eggs, and 2 jins of milk every month."

After she finished her words, everyone was stunned. Although the money they would receive was far below what they could earn from doing 1 escort mission, it was a stable income.

They could also bring their families over and even receive supplies every month. Not to mention anything else, just the milk alone was already very good. Not everyone could buy milk.

Luo Bo thought for a while before he asked, "Young Master Lei, I wonder what kind of warehouse you plan to build?"

"I only have a rough idea for now. But after the new year, I will start building the workshop. By then, I might need everyone to help me supervise the workers."

Yao Zhi paused for a moment and added, "Anyone who passes the evaluation held once every 3 months will have a chance to be promoted. With promotion, the salary and stipend will also increase."

"But if anyone makes a mistake, they will be punished according to the rules. A small mistake will warrant a warning. After 3 warnings, they will either be demoted or fired directly."

She glanced at everyone and asked, "So, is anyone interested in working for me?"

The moment she finished her words, Luo Bo noticed that his brothers all looked at him. He thought for a moment and said, "Young Master Lei, can we discuss this matter first?"

"Sure. You can think it over and inform me whenever you make up your mind. But before that, I need to hire you to guard the warehouse. My people will deliver a batch of goods later. The goods will be delivered tomorrow to the General’s Mansion."

Hearing this, Luo Bo nodded and said, "No problem. My brothers and I can guard the warehouse before sunset."

"I will pay the same price as before, 500 wen daily," Yao Zhi nodded.

"It’s a deal," Luo Bo agreed immediately.

After they reached an agreement, Yao Zhi left the escort agency and walked to the town gate. When she was 100 meters away from the gate, she took out a mare from her system’s grassland.

She put on the saddle and rode it to the warehouse. Maybe because this mare was raised inside her System’s grassland, it was docile and very intelligent. Compared to Yun Feng, it was much easier to ride.
