“Bibbeong-!”
The morning dawned in the County of Frontera..
With the roar of a wabi flying from the high eastern mountain range, countless people, livestock, larks, frogs, and bees woke up from their sleep..
Of course, Lloyd was no exception..
‘What is this?.’
Lloyd rubbed his eyelids once..
It was the morning when I woke up after a light sleep as usual..
In particular, because the previous day he was much more tired than usual, he couldn't even take off his shoes and fell asleep on the bed..
‘Is that why? Did I sleep too soundly? I can't sleep and I see nothing in front of my eyes..’
He frowned, feeling a little dazed and half awake..
And then I read again the ‘vain’ I see before my eyes..
[Existing residents and countless refugees are voluntarily rolling up their sleeves to help you..]
“…….”
What kind of nonsense is the top of your head stamped with the corner of a children's storybook?.
Where in the world is there voluntary help?.
Moreover, not just one or two people, but the majority of Youngjimin.?
I don't believe in that.?
‘At the very least, you should be given a gift containing 30 rolls of toilet paper for free, or at the very least, be given a valuable coupon book, or at least a sweet allowance should be guaranteed..’
You need that level of compensation to barely move..
that's people.
There is no work without compensation.
There is no good will without compensation..
So there is nothing free in this world.
There is absolutely no favor without any reason..
That was Lloyd's idea..
My long hard life in Korea naturally gave me such thoughts..
That's why I rarely allow free stuff to others..
I didn't have high expectations of getting something for free from others..
It was the same at this moment.
‘But why do I voluntarily roll up my sleeves?.’
All he did was post a few official letters around the territory through Count Frontera..
I will pay you an appropriate amount of money.
So, they are looking for workers to participate in the construction of the main sewer..
I posted a notice to recruit workers, but I didn't have high expectations..
‘Because the reward was so-so.’
Spring is a busy season with preparations for farming..
Are there many people who would be willing to become laborers for just a few pennies?.
I thought you were welcome.
‘At best, maybe 100 people? At that point, it would be an average result..’
So the rest of the workforce is hired from Cremo..
He shook his head as he examined the plan..
I forcibly chased away the drowsiness that would not escape..
And after a while I saw.
The message that I thought was in vain still remains before my eyes..
Additional notifications below the message.
[The achievements and accolades you have accumulated so far are having a linked effect..]
“…….”
what?
Lloyd's eyes froze..
moved slowly.
selected message.
Then the details unfolded..
Ding dong.
[You have shown dignity appropriate for your position by punishing traitors in your territory and establishing discipline. The residents of the County of Frontera still clearly remember the surprise and admiration they felt for you that day..]
[Praise, the 'executor of one punishment and one punishment' is eliciting a basic sense of trust in you from the existing residents of the territory..]
[You took the lead in rebuilding the fallen territory. Additionally, with his amazing persistence and planning, he played a crucial role in paying off his family's debt. The residents of the County of Frontera are witnesses to your hard work and dedication..]
[Praise, the ‘builder of the fallen territory’ and the ‘eldest son of Frontera’ have a great influence on the perception of the people of the territory. No citizen of the territory has any questions or doubts about your construction plan..]
[You spared no effort in providing humanitarian aid to refugees, despite the difficult circumstances. Tens of thousands of refugees cherish your help and grace in their hearts..]
[Praise, 'Leader of the Weary' inspires refugees' strong faith in you.]
[In the face of a huge disaster, you did not back down but faced it and willingly became a shield to protect the people of Yeongji. This is not a one-time occurrence. You jumped underground to save your workers from the invasion of wild ants. Without hesitation, I entered the dungeon to rescue the soldiers who had been captured by the warlock. It was intentionally used as bait to attract hundreds of thousands of locusts. The people of the territory clearly remember all your courage and sacrifice..]
[Praise for 'Savior of the Bell' is spreading through the refugee camp through the mouths of existing residents. The refugees who considered you a benefactor cannot help but feel admiration and emotion as they hear this amazing praise..]
[A special effect has been created through the combo effect of Praise.]
[Now all the territories and refugees have come to respect you with one mind..]
[For a certain period of time, everyone in the County of Frontera will absolutely trust, support, and follow your plans and actions..]
[We have pledged that all residents, including refugees, will voluntarily provide free labor for you..]
[Compliment combo effect target: All members of the Prontera County]
[Tribute combo effect period: 3 years]
“……omg.”
Is this real?.
Lloyd swallowed dry saliva..
I read the message carefully again..
As expected, I have no choice but to believe it..
So, this is clearly a true story..
“oh my god.”
There were so many great explanations that I didn't really feel it..
I woke up feeling a little dazed..
If I breathe the cool morning air, will my excited mind calm down?.
I pulled back the curtains and opened the bedroom window..
And then it hardened once again.
“Wow-!”
As soon as I opened the window, there were huge cheers and shouts..
Before I could even breathe the morning air, my eardrums and my entire body were being pounded mercilessly..
countless people.
and people.
crowd of people.
Beyond the mansion's courtyard.
From just outside the front gate fence all the way down the driveway..
At rough count, a crowd of well over a thousand people had gathered in front of the mansion since early morning. They were cheering and shouting at themselves as they appeared through the bedroom window..
‘uh. Wait a minute.’
Honestly, I was embarrassed..
The realization came a beat late..
‘It's true. That message just now.’
He tried to remain calm and take stock of the situation..
So it's like this.
Achievements and accolades so far.
They have a linked effect.
He became the #1 Youngji celebrity(?).
Thanks to this, many people are coming to the mansion from the morning to voluntarily participate in the construction of the main sewer..
‘Whoa.’
If this continues, won’t he eventually be crowned king?.
Then you won't be able to drink honey comfortably for the rest of your life..
If you don't do that, you might have to be a little nervous..
He gathered himself and adjusted his clothes and hair. He left the bedroom. I was able to see the Count and his wife, who looked very flushed..
“Have you ever looked out the window? It's not like everyone gathered together like that earlier and made a fuss. Everyone is volunteering to do the work, saying they don't need to be paid. I had no idea that this kind of response would come thanks to a few official documents posted yesterday.…….”
“Because you are so prestigious. This is probably because everyone was deeply moved by the words written in the official letter..”
“Is that something like that??”
“yes, maybe.”
Lloyd grinned..
He spoke to Count Frontera, who was inspired by the unexpected compliment on his writing skills..
“This is a very welcome situation. I don't think I need to go through the trouble of hiring workers in Cremo. So, from now on, I'm thinking of appearing in front of them. Is that okay??”
“Of course. Aren't these people gathered to work for you?.”
“thank you.”
The Count taps me on the shoulder..
I smiled at him and left the mansion..
I stood in front of the numerous residents and refugees gathered in front of the mansion..
There was no need to make a grandiose, cringe-inducing speech..
Instead, he quickly set up a table..
It was a contract table..
“Ego! Everyone, let’s line up, line up.!”
The oars must be stirred when the water comes in..
Even large sails must be deployed when the wind blows..
Even doing laundry on a sunny day is like crab soup..
The same goes for employment contracts..
When people's motivation rises.
When you're burning brightly to try something.
In that case, it's best to get them to the contract table quickly..
Like right now.
Lloyd looked across the contract table with a titanium plate covering his face..
“Well, please write your name and address. Enter your age, gender, height, and weight..”
“yes? You mean age? Why are gender and height different?…….”
“Because each person has different strength and stamina. Resilience will vary depending on age. Do you think it would be better if I just let it roll without thinking about that? really?”
“Oh, of course not..”
“yes? I was so tired that I was dying, but they urged me to come to work. If you don't show up, they put pressure on you and say your daily wage will be reduced. It was a day when I wanted to rest, but they arbitrarily ordered me to work overtime. Then I don't think it would be terrible.?”
“yes, yes…….”
“So the daily wage will be paid. Nothing is free.”
“yes?”
“Didn't you hear? You will be paid a daily wage according to the amount of work you do..”
“Hey, but Master Lloyd. We don't really need anything in return…….”
“Tsk. I'm doing this because I don't want to hear gossip later. Take what you give.”
“Ah, yes. All right.”
“Ok, fine. Once construction begins, we will post a work schedule, so in the meantime, we are concentrating on preparations for farming. Is the Marez clearing well maintained? How are you these days??”
“Oh, how do you know I'm in the Marez Clearings??”
“Why do not you know. You signed a contract with me to sell reclaimed land..”
“I did… … Yes.”
“Are the kids growing up well? He said that when he saves up money, he will send him to Cremor to study..”
“How do you even remember that?…….”
“Then forget it?”
“No. No. I'm just so amazed that everyone remembers a guy like me.…….”
“Why are you surprised by something like that? Anyway, let's go in then. Prepare well for farming. If you receive an official work schedule, be sure to read it..”
“Okay. Thank you, Master Lloyd..”
“okay. next person.”
……It was like that..
In other words, he personally drew up contracts with each volunteer..
Volunteers were also asked to write down conditions such as gender, age, height, and weight..
The number of volunteers was expected to be much higher than expected..
There seemed to be more people than needed for the work..
Therefore, we have the opportunity to sufficiently rotate work according to people's physical conditions..
‘Rotation, we have to turn it around. Otherwise, who will do the farming and who will raise the cows?.’
No matter how urgent construction is, farming is also important..
Therefore, we planned to rotate work as carefully as possible to avoid damage to people's farming..
‘And daily wage. You have to give it unconditionally.’
He didn't miss a single day's work..
I didn't want to give it away for free just because I was a volunteer..
I have a lot of money left over?
I belatedly woke up to the spirit of welfare.?
It wasn't all.
It was for the future..
‘If you treat someone for free, you'll always end up complaining about them later..’
Nowadays, everyone believes in and follows him passionately..
But there is no guarantee that this will be the case forever..
Cheers now may turn into criticism later..
‘So, you have to regularly pay appropriate compensation and make people work, so that awareness is properly established. Ah, if you work with that person, you won’t have to pay any extra. You're getting the right price. You can work with peace of mind. That kind of perception..’
Only when such awareness is created will it become easier to continue working..
It becomes easier to find the right labor when you need it..
Trust is literally formed.
Lloyd spent all day signing employment contracts with thousands of volunteers..
Smiling all this time.
The volunteers were also full of proud smiles..
It was an incredibly heartwarming sight for anyone to see..
Except for the one person next to Lloyd, Haviel..
‘Phew. As expected, people don't know Lloyd's true identity..’
It was Javiel carrying the contract documents next to him..
Meanwhile, I often sighed deeply..
Maybe people are so naive.
What on earth is it about Lloyd that makes us cheer so much?.
As someone who was always watching from the side, I couldn't understand it..
‘If you get to know him, he is a petty and mean person..’
I wanted to shout out if possible.
This human scammer.
Everyone run away.
Of course, being cool and calm, he succeeded in keeping his own cry in his heart, and the volunteers' labor contracts were successfully concluded..
But Lloyd didn't stop there..
Because there was still work left to do..
‘It's not just leftovers. It's a heap, a heap..’
After completing the contract, Lloyd stretched and relieved his sore body..
Solving the manpower supply and demand problem was not the end..
‘After manpower, resources.’
Things don't get done just because there are people..
Materials are definitely involved in construction..
The main sewer to be built this time will require a particularly large amount of stone..
“That's why. let's go have dinner.”
“yes?”
Javiel, who was finishing organizing the volunteers' employment contract documents, tilted his head..
“Where are you going for dinner?.”
It's not that it wasn't, Lloyd looked like he was ready to go out..
Lloyd grinned as he put on his coat..
“Follow me and you will find out.”
“…….”
What are you planning to do again, Lloyd?.
Besides, there's still quite a bit of time left before evening..
What on earth are you thinking?.
Javiel felt suspicious and followed him out of the mansion..
rode a horse.
They rode side by side.
Under the sunset that has already begun to set.
Lloyd's horse's head pointed south..
‘No way, with the Viscounty of Lacona?’
Does that mean that we will have dinner at Viscount Lacona's mansion?.
No, it's not just about dinner..
They're probably trying to rip something off again..
‘Because Lloyd is the kind of person who can live with that..’
People who are hated once are people who keep stepping on them..
A person who sucks until he reaches the end..
Isn’t that kind of person Lloyd?.
Indeed, the guess was correct..
Soon the horses' hooves crossed the border of the Viscounty of Lacona..
After passing through several villages and rice fields, we arrived in front of a luxurious mansion..
It was the residence of Viscount Lacona..
But there was a small commotion going on in the front yard of the mansion..
‘fight?’
I saw two men having a fist fight..
Judging by his attire, he seemed to be a servant at the viscount's mansion..
But the problem was that a young man dressed in luxurious clothes was watching the two fight as if enjoying it..
“Stretch your fists properly, you bastards! ok? The loser gets to sleep in the warehouse tonight. Of course there will be no dinner. Okay guys?”
It's quite big.
Nasty, shiny eyes.
Looking at that appearance, Javiel realized the identity of the young man..
‘He is the son of Viscount Lacona..’
Was his name Diego?.
I heard that you went to study at the royal academy like Master Julien..
But when did I return home?.
It was around this time that Javiel came up with such a thought..
“hey.”
Lloyd strode up behind Diego..
I draped one arm over Diego's shoulder, who was preoccupied with watching the fight..
“Huh? who?”
Diego, startled, turned his head belatedly..
I made eye contact with Lloyd..
That moment.
A bright smile bloomed around Lloyd's eyes that would make even Satan shake his head..
“Who is it? It's me. I have something to do today, so I'm asking you again after a long time. What are you doing now, Dad??”
Diego, the son of Viscount Lacona, gave a haphazard answer..
With the uvula, not the mouth.
hiccup.
