update icon Updated at 2023/6/26 8:10:12

"Lord Rayshui!" Kahn saw Rayshui and addressed him with great respect.

"It's perfect timing; I was just about to look for you." Rayshui replied, then continued speaking.

Meeting Kahn here was a pleasant surprise.

After all, this big man who had sought his help before seemed to be a hunter, often helping the people in East Tower City, and was highly esteemed among the citizens.

"Just say the word, Lord! I, Kahn, will go through fire and water without hesitation!"

The young nobleman before him was definitely the kindest nobleman Kahn had ever met in his life. Just after arriving at his territory, he had abolished many taxes and even modified the proportion of food to be handed over.

The baron's house only took 40%, and the harvesters could take 60%; this was unprecedented.

To help such a kind nobleman was an honor for himself.

"Are you familiar with East Tower City?"

"Very familiar. I grew up in East Tower City. Not to brag, but if I say second-best, no one would dare say they are the best."

"Then do you know the people in East Tower City well? Like who is good at doing what, who is not." Rayshui squinted his eyes and continued asking.

If Kahn was knowledgeable about this as well, he would definitely qualify to be his right-hand man.

"Yes! Old Jack is the best craftsman in the village, Kafu is the best blacksmith, Mrs. Lumei is the best..." Kahn introduced them tirelessly.

"I see. Are you interested in working for me? I can offer you a monthly salary of 500 copper coins." Rayshui said.

"500 copper coins?!" Kahn found it hard to swallow.

This salary was too high... Before, even after working himself tired, he could only make at most 100 copper coins a month...

Now it suddenly increased five-fold.

Kahn was worried if he could handle the position Lord Rayshui offered.

"Yes, and you also have two days off each week." Rayshui added.

"Can I really? How about... just give me 200 copper coins a month, Lord."

Pfft...

Hearing Kahn's words, Rayshui was a little speechless.

It was the first time he had seen someone who thought their salary was too high and actively lowered it.

"You can do it; trust me. From now on, just lead me to Old Jack's house." Rayshui did not give Kahn the opportunity to continue doubting himself and spoke decisively.

"Alright..." Seeing that there was no escape, Kahn could only accept his fate.

…………

Under Kahn's guidance, Rayshui visited the homes of many talented people and discussed various topics with them.

"Tomorrow morning, report to the baron's house, and don't forget." Rayshui reminded Kahn before he left.

"Yes, Lord Rayshui."

"And, try to gather all the people in the city for tomorrow. I have some announcements to make."

"Yes!"

After giving his instructions to Kahn, Rayshui and Alice returned to the baron's house.

They had spent a very fulfilling day; the initial planning for the city was done, and all they needed to do was wait for feedback from those talented people.

If they could receive feedback quickly, the construction of East Tower City would advance at an incredible pace.

"Alice, what do you want to eat tonight?" Rubbing his slightly sore leg, Rayshui asked.

"Lord Rayshui, you should really get some maids." Seeing Rayshui, who could only relieve his own pain, Alice spoke up.

It was quite appropriate for nobleman Rayshui to have maids serving him.

Rayshui, being such a great person, should not be worn out due to lack of care.

Alice actually wanted to take care of Lord Rayshui herself... but considering her clumsy hands and feet, and being heavy-handed, she was worried that she might hurt Lord Rayshui, so she gave up on this idea."Well, let's go take a look tomorrow." Rayshui dared not use the maids left by Baron Orton, as he didn't know whether they were clean or not. Only by training people himself could he feel at ease. He had many secrets, and if they were leaked, he would fall into an irreparable situation. Thus, the people close to him had to be very loyal.

Of course, Rayshui would not simply drive all the original maids of the Baron's mansion away without any pity, he would just arrange for them to do some unimportant tasks. Loyal people seemed not easy to find. Having met an Alice, he already considered himself quite lucky. Meeting another one would be incredibly difficult.

It depends on fate. When fate arrives, everything will become smooth and natural.
