Lord: Taken away from inheritance at the beginning

Chapter 43 43. New Servant
  For ordinary people, it is a very fortunate thing to be able to enter the castle and become the servants of lords and nobles.

First of all, as long as you join the castle, it means that in most cases you don’t need to worry about going hungry or freezing, and you can also have a stable income;

Secondly, when you enter the castle, you will have the opportunity to get close to the nobles. If you are lucky, you will have the opportunity to receive rewards, and you may even have the opportunity to change your destiny and improve your class!

So when Chahar on the grassland announced that Shanlin Fort was recruiting twenty servants, the people who had not dispersed became excited, and many people volunteered to rush forward.

If it weren't for the extraordinary knights David and Tom maintaining order at the scene, it is estimated that the young butler would have been completely surrounded by the surging crowd.

The competition for the job was very intense, but with Chahar's words, many people immediately stopped.

The reason is that Shanlimbao, except for chefs, only needs people in the age range of 18 to 35 years old. Those who are above this age will have no chance.

Next is the big screening.

When it comes to selecting people, Chahar first abides by the three requirements put forward by Luo Ning, and secondly follows some of the standards he set himself.

For example, the servants who are responsible for picking and moving things in the castle are required to look strong and powerful;

For example, for someone who works as Luo Ning's personal servant, he requires that he looks good, is smart, and reacts quickly;

Another example is the personal maid. Although the master seems not to be interested in women, Chahar feels that the personal maid should be as beautiful as possible.

After all, when Luo Ning goes out to visit other nobles in the future, valets and maids will have to accompany him. If he looks weird, it will be detrimental to the reputation of the Baron of Hillwood Town.

Chahar will never allow such things to happen.

Therefore, he spent a short time selecting other servants, but spent a long time on the two positions of valet and valet.

It wasn't until around four o'clock in the afternoon that Chahar gathered twenty servants and brought them to the castle to meet Luoning.

On the grass outside the main building of the inner castle, Luo Ning looked at the servants standing in several rows in front of him and nodded slightly.

"Thank you for your hard work Chahar, things went well."

Chahar bowed and said, "Thank you, sir, for your compliment."

As he spoke, he began to introduce.

The three people standing at the front are Galen, the valet, Bella, the valet, and Bandele, the kitchen chef.

"Gallon is a 19-year-old boy. There are four people in his family. His father was a guard who came here with the Earl in the early years to be in charge of logistics."

"Bella is also 19 years old. Her parents are freedmen in the town and farm some fields."

"Mrs. Bandele is 38 years old. Although she is older, I personally went to her shabby bakery and ate the food she made. Compared with others, it is the best."

When he introduced them, these new and somewhat nervous servants saluted and said hello to Luo Ning. One and two of them were very reserved. After all, the lord's "name killing" was out of the question.

Ronin looked at them.

These people all wore clothes made of linen, and the styles were relatively similar. The difference was that some people's clothes were newer, and some people's clothes had several patches on them. The living environment was not good at first glance.

This is normal. After all, they are civilians in mountainous areas. It is good if they can grow strong and wear clothes. The requirements cannot be too high.

But this maid made Luo Ning take a second look. She was quite beautiful. With a little dressing up, she might be even prettier than Prince's two lovers.

Chahar is worthy of being someone who learned from Wushanbao, and he still has some vision.

Behind these three people are the ordinary servants in the castle, the servants responsible for livestock and so on.

Luo Ning didn't put much effort into remembering their names. After all, the first three people were probably the only ones who had more contact with him in daily life.

"Very well, you are welcome to join us."

After Chahar finished his introduction, Luo Ning said a few words of welcome, "Chahar, there should be some uniforms for the servants in the castle. You can distribute them later."

"In addition, teach them basic etiquette, especially Galen and Bella. They may follow me out later, and some habits in their behavior need to be changed."

Chahar felt relieved. Before he came, he thought that the master would find fault with two people and ask him to recruit again. Unexpectedly, all twenty people passed.

"Don't worry, sir, I will teach them basic etiquette after we go down. I will pay special attention to Galen and Bella!"

Luo Ning did not continue to express any more opinions on the servant issue. Chahar was educated and could just leave these matters to him.

"First release the second recruitment information to Shanlin Town."

He had to arrange the affairs of the political officer first, and said: "I need to recruit a political officer. All the citizens of Shanlin Town can come to the castle at nine o'clock tomorrow morning to apply for the job."

"Of course, not everyone can."

He emphasized: "In addition to the points mentioned yesterday, the age can be relaxed, including 40 years old and below. In addition, you must be able to read and write most words, and your mobility cannot be restricted."

I am afraid that just knowing most of the text will filter out a large number of people.

Because in this world, knowledge is expensive.

A book with dozens of pages bound in parchment usually sells for a few silver coins!
  It’s pretty good if ordinary people can provide their family with three meals a day. How can they have the extra energy and money to study and buy books?

After Luo Ning waited for Chahar to go down with his servants, he began to think about the questions he would ask the interviewers tomorrow. After all, if there were too many applicants, he still needed to screen them.

After a while, Luo Ning finalized the question, then came to the window and cast the Breeze Technique outside.

This spell is not very difficult for a wind attribute magician to learn for beginners. In addition, Luo Ning's attribute affinity has reached super level. After learning it that night, he can quickly cast it with 100% success.

The reason why he continues to practice is mainly to improve his proficiency and stability in carving spell patterns with his mental power, and to prepare for making spell scrolls later.

The magician Pedro said that making a spell scroll requires the magician's mental power and mana output to be extremely stable in order to carve spell lines on the skin of the monster.

If this condition is not met, the spell scroll cannot be made, just like Pedro tried many times, but in the end it was just a waste.

Luo Ning obviously meets this condition.

His mental strength and mana are very stable, so making spell scrolls should not be a problem in the future. He also asked Elrond in private, and the other party seemed to meet this condition.

In other words, in the future Shanlin Town, two magicians can make spell scrolls.

Luo Ning thought carefully. If there were no special products in Shanlin Town, he could sell the spell scrolls as resources.

Moreover, once their magician level becomes higher and they can create powerful spell scrolls, they can then be used as a strategic resource.

If there is a magic that can destroy a city in an instant, and Luo Ning can make it into a spell scroll, then this scroll is equivalent to a nuclear weapon.

Of course, this was just his imagination. He didn't know whether there was any heaven-defying magic in this world.

These are all things for later. At this stage, a second-level healing spell scroll can definitely sell well.

In this way, Luo Ning can also complete a certain amount of money accumulation.

In addition to the spell scrolls, Luo Ning is also planning to rely on the memories of his past life to see if he can develop some industries.

Like liquor?

People in this world like to drink very much. From the nobles to ordinary people, they all have the habit of drinking. There are many people who are addicted to alcohol.

However, all they drank were beer and wine. The former nobles had never been exposed to liquor, so they obviously did not have liquor.

This gave Luo Ning a very clear market.

However, Luo Ning has not actually practiced how to make liquor. It is estimated that it will take a long time of exploration and experimentation.

Fortunately, he already had the theoretical knowledge, but what he lacked was practical practice. Luo Ning was very confident in himself.
