Chapter 210
Chapter 210
The people in the slums are living a very happy life now, at least compared to the previous life of being precarious, not having enough to eat, and maybe even being frozen to death in the middle of the night.
It took them ten days to build a "factory" that could barely shelter from the wind and rain.
Get up early every day, get dressed and go to work in the factory.
Some people want to grind sugar powder, and the finer the sesame sugar, the better. You can't use a stone mill, you can only use a clean stone to grind it a little bit.
This work is done by men, and women are responsible for more delicate work, such as the separation of egg yolk and egg white.
Everyone can make egg whites, because there are egg beaters modeled after modern egg beaters, and both men and women can beat a bowl of egg whites with powdered sugar within 10 minutes.
And these people are tireless, and they don't feel tired—tired is fine, after all, they didn't even have the chance to be tired before.
The factory officially started working, and Chi Yan gave the cakes made on the first day to the nobles and big businessmen in the city, and even asked Ryan to come up and send them to many noble ladies.
Originally, only those who were entertained by Chi Yan could eat the cake, but now it has finally entered the field of vision of the upper class.
For the cakes that were made the next day, Chi Yan asked someone to buy a shop and put them on sale in the shop.
Because the wheat flour and eggs used were "gifted" to Chi Yan by the merchants who came from Stettin, so the price is not high.
In addition to nobles and businessmen, some middle classes can also afford it.
Ryan is now in charge of the sales of the cake shop. After all, he can read and can add, subtract, and multiply.
However, Ryan himself felt very nervous and scared. He was sent to the castle when he was very young. Before Chi Yan became the owner of the manor, he was a handyman. Di had a good relationship, and he slowly walked in front of Chi Yan, and he became a personal servant. Ryan felt that his good luck had been used up at that moment.
But Ryan doesn't think he is such a great talent, even though he can read and do some simple calculations now, in his heart, he is still that humble and useless manservant.
Standing in the warm bakery, he saw off another guest. The guest was a lady's maid. He heard from her that her master had stopped eating bread since yesterday, and he must Eat cake with every meal.
Fresh cakes must be bought every day.
After all, Chi Yan told them that the cakes that are not sold out every day will be disposed of, so as to ensure that the next day's cakes are fresh.
Ryan "earned money" for the first time. He looked at the copper and silver coins in the cabinet—there were aristocrats who were not short of money and chose the door-to-door service. Sent to his home for a month.
The sky outside gradually darkened, Ryan waited for a while, and after making sure that no customers would come again, he asked the shop assistants to clean up the unsold cakes.
At this time, many homeless people were already guarding outside the cake shop.
Lane opened the door a crack and yelled at the homeless people outside: "Queue!"
Many of the homeless people had gone to Chi Yan's to get the katuo cakes in the morning. They knew the meaning of queuing, and even if they didn't know, they didn't dare to be "stabs" when they saw the appearance of other homeless people.
After everyone was lined up, Ryan came out with the bag, and the other guys maintained order.
Ryan shouted: "I want to invite a few people here to maintain order. If someone comes to make trouble, you have to help me drive them out."
The vagrants quickly shouted: "My lord! Choose me! As long as I am full, I can beat five!"
"My lord! Choose me!"
"Choose me!"
Ryan: "Stop arguing!"
Lane said: "I pick people when I give out cakes."
He picked people not because he was worried that someone would come to make trouble, but because there were not many cakes left every day, and there were more homeless people who came today than yesterday, and tomorrow, some people would definitely not be able to get the cake.
It's no wonder these people don't make trouble when the time comes, Ryan won't have any good fantasies about the homeless.
When he was hungry, he could do anything.
Ryan sent them one by one, and selected six men and three women.
These three women are all dwarves—they were driven out by slave owners, but dwarves are short, but naturally muscular and stronger than other races.
Even after being hungry for so long, these three female dwarves have tangled muscles, and they look particularly powerful standing there.
The other tramps were dissatisfied: "My lord! Why did you choose a woman?"
"Exactly! What can a woman do? She's still a dwarf! No dwarf deserves to eat cake!"
"grown ups!"
Ryan looked at the six men he had selected, and said seriously, "I can change."
The tramps were happy: "Master, that's right! Only we men can help you fight off the bad guys!"
Lane continued: "But everyone has to change, not just these three women."
The six men were dumbfounded. They quickly found their camp and cursed at other homeless men: "Look at the muscles on their bodies, and then look at their fists! Look at the bones in your own bodies, they are worse than theirs!" Useful? Do you want to be ashamed?"
"You were not selected because you were skinny! Only by eating the stored food can you find a job!"
"That's right, I used to eat as much as I could, look at my arms, so I was chosen!"
The topic was suddenly changed, and the tramps who were not selected suddenly discovered that those who were tramps like them just now did look stronger, and they did eat as much as they wanted every day.
So as long as they go back and eat more... they will be selected, right?
The six men continued to fool them, and finally fooled them away.
Ryan said to the six men and three women: "Come with me, I will arrange a place for you to live in. From now on, you will have two meals a day, and someone will arrange it."
"You can still get thirty copper coins every month, but if I find you taking things from the store, I have to break your hands and throw them out."
Ryan said seriously: "Really break the hand."
The six men quickly promised.
Ryan looked at the three female dwarves.
"What about you? What do you want to ask?"
The female dwarves were a little dazed. They had been wandering around the city since they were kicked out by their masters. They were starving at the beginning, so they dug up the snow until their fingers bled, so they could dig up the frozen soil and eat grass roots.
Most of their clansmen chose to leave the holy city. They had been slaves for so many years, and they didn't know how to live independently. They could only rely on the guidance of their instincts. Their instincts told them that their ancestors were all in the wild, and the wild can always find food.
They didn't go with the tribe, not because they thought the city was good, but because when the tribe left, the three of them were still digging grass roots.
As a result, the tribe left, and they didn't know where the tribe went, so they could only stay in the holy city. After knowing that Chi Yan was distributing food, they relied on kato biscuits to survive.
Fortunately, their physical fitness is strong, and they are not sick even though they are wearing a tattered dress.
Not every dwarf is in good health, but as slaves, those who are not in good health will die long ago, and those who can live to adulthood, ordinary diseases can't help them.
The female dwarf said cautiously: "Yes, as long as there is something to eat... I am willing to be your master's slave."
The other two female dwarves nodded quickly.
Ryan said sternly: "I am the servant of the lord of Stettin, we have no slaves! Whether it is a tauren, a dwarf or a goblin, they are all residents of Stettin! Don't tell me that you want to be a slave."
He knew how much the lord had done to allow the race to accept other races as free people, and now he hated the word slave.
In Ryan's heart, the lord is a god, what the lord says must be correct, and what the lord does must be correct.
What the lord dislikes must be evil, and the lord is his guiding light and his belief.
The female dwarves were even more at a loss.
The tramp is also at a loss, is there really such a place?
What is a place like that like?
The human race there is willing to accept living and working with races like dwarves and goblins?
Ryan was not very happy: "If you think that dwarf goblins and tauren are born slaves and are not worthy of being free people, then you go now!"
The tramps quickly said: "No, no, your lord is right, dwarves shouldn't be slaves!"
"Yes, yes, yes! Your lord is so benevolent and kind!"
Ryan was a little happier: "It's not what I said, but what my master said. My master is the most glorious, greatest, wisest, most compassionate, and gentlest person in the world."
The tramp blew along with his eyes closed: "That's right! Lord Stettin is a saint!"
"Yes! He is our savior!"
Ryan nodded reservedly, motioning for them to continue.
So the vagrants blew Chi Yan all the way, and Ryan expressed his satisfaction, and his attitude improved a lot.
As long as you praise my idol, we are a family.
Ryan led them to the slums, and then asked the steward to arrange houses for them. The people in the slums might die, and many houses were vacant. It was not a problem to arrange accommodation for nine people.
The six men were assigned to a larger house, and the three female dwarves were assigned to a smaller house. According to the head, Ryan felt that it was fair.
Before leaving, Ryan said to them: "When you finish your work tomorrow, I will give you ten copper coins. You can use them to buy some firewood, or other things you want to buy."
"The remaining twenty copper coins will have to wait for you to finish this month's work."
After Ryan left, he was relieved, he was so nervous!
He doesn't know how to manage people at all!In the past, when Kadi was around, he didn't have to worry about anything. Later, Kadi was gone, and because of the butler, the servants around Chi Yan had already been well managed, and he didn't need to spend any energy at all.
but!Since the lord thinks he can do it, give him this task.
He will definitely be able to, he will never disappoint the expectations of adults!
