Chapter 225: Recruiting people
In September 1028, the Wessen army arrived near the city of Nuremberg by land, and then boarded a ship and returned upstream to the city of Wessenberg. The port outside the city was filled with people to welcome their relatives. crowd.
Frederick stood on the side of the ship with others, waving to the crowd on the shore.
Suddenly, his face turned dark.
Nowadays, Wesson's clothing has begun to become westernized. After absorbing traditional clothing styles, decorated suits suitable for young people have appeared, but the colors and patterns are simpler and brighter.
However, among the crowd today, there is a group of people wearing ancient silk and colorful clothes.
The clothes are all made of fine silk from the Kingdom of Sardinia. The embroidery is complex and exquisite. I am afraid that others will not know how many pieces I have worn. The sleeves, collar and front are all exposed layer by layer. The color of each piece is different.
The clothes are just that, each of their necks are covered with various gold chains, and their fingers are covered with gold rings.
Frederick thought it was over, Manuel, Omet and others were so crazy today, the reputation of Weisenberg University was gone.
He soon understood what was going on. These guys were here to greet Monnartz and Fritz, two old colleagues.
Monnarz and Fritz met Frederick after they were discovered by former students of the Royal University in Hanma City. Frederick entertained them with delicious food and drinks and invited them to return to Wesson.
As soon as they got off the boat, they were a little dizzy by the group of guys who maliciously showed off their wealth.
Monalz asked Omet: "How much money did you...swindle from Duke Wesson? Can you sleep at night?"
Omet replied with a smile. He said: "This is not the place to talk. Let's go to my house. Home-cooked meals are prepared." Damn it.”
"Let's go." Omet said proudly, "The car is over there."
Monarz and Fritz were confused when they saw the car. Fritz asked Omet: "Is this a new magic puppet you made?"
Omet said humbly: "It was invented by the principal and made by that kid Schmidt. I was just helping. "
At this time, Frederick was also confused not far away and meowed. These guys used a 20-horsepower tractor head to pull a carriage. This was his special car.
Afu was already waiting aside and opened the car door for the master.
Frederick walked into the carriage. The interior space was about the same as that of a van, but more spacious than that of a carriage.
“Welcome home!”
Maria was in the carriage, looking at Frederick with a smile.
Frederick sat next to her, held her over and rubbed her face. Maria's face suddenly turned into a red apple.
“I hate it!” Maria was just a child, “Sister Psyche will laugh.”
Psyche sat down opposite them and said nonchalantly: "You can pretend I don't exist."
At this time Afu also came in and began to report to Frederick the recent situation in the territory.
On the other side, at Omet's house, Monnarz looked at the sumptuous dinner in front of him and couldn't help but said: "This... is so sumptuous!"
Fritz also said: " We really feel sorry for spending so much money.”
On the dining table lies a roasted whole cow, with an apple in its mouth and cherries for its eyes, surrounded by a circle of fresh vegetables, including several. They have never seen anything like this, so it must not be cheap.
Manuel smiled and said to them: "Don't underestimate Ogilvy. He is the richest among us who came here from Constantbul. The second richest is BASF. You can't think of it." ."
Monnarz smiled and said: "Sage, please stop joking. You are talking about the BASF who stepped on the slime and fell. How could he be richer than you? "
Fritz also nodded in agreement. Manuel is a powerful necromancer and is now the vice president of the university. How can his annual salary be lower than that of a daredevil?
Omet said to the two of them: "Don't underestimate the vice-principal. It's still unclear who will be second between him and BASF."
Those two are now being punished. No more.
"Okay, okay," Diesel said, "Everyone, please take a seat, I am the poorest now."
Julius also said: "Yeah, I haven't eaten meat in a few days, I will starve to death if we don’t start the dinner.”
After everyone sat down, Omet’s wife began to share the food with everyone, and Omet said: “Don’t listen to Diesel and Julius’ nonsense, they are enjoying themselves. The personal disciples of His Excellency Richard Nar are not treated like this."
Monnarz said in surprise: "How did you fool Duke Wesson?"
< br>Fritz also said: "Omet can use the Golem puppet to deceive Duke Wesson. What about the others? Teach me."
Everyone present laughed, leaving the two of them baffled.
Omet and Monaltz have a very good relationship. Monaltz is an alchemist who studies steel and has collaborated with him a lot in the past. "We all earn money based on our own skills." Omet said while eating. "I am the Minister of Industry in the territory. I cooperate with the principal to produce elemental metals, machine tools, and calculators. The annual dividends are very high."
“BASF now produces slime glue, and the dividends are almost catching up with me.”
“Vice Principal Manuel now sells milk, concentrated soup, and canned food These, business is not generally good.”
"Matthias and Monoflo are the Minister of Agriculture and the Deputy Minister of Agriculture. One of them sells magic-enhanced seeds, and the other breeds livestock and sells seedlings and feed. They also make a lot of money."
" Friedrich is now making life-saving medicine, but the investment is huge, so the final profit does not seem to be high."
"Diesel and Julius are working for the army, so I won't say more. "
Omet told everyone here how to get rich, and both Monalz and Fritz forgot to eat.
Manuel continued: "We don't talk so much between us. The principal hopes that you can turn your knowledge into gold coins at Weissenburg University and here in Weissenburg, just like us. ”
Monalz thought for a moment and said: "I am researching steel that will not rust. The investment is not small. I don't know when I will succeed."
Omet raised his glass to him and said : "I am the Minister of Industry, and I am in charge of steel smelting. I can guarantee that your experimental funds are guaranteed, and if you have results, you can get dividends like us."
Manuel also raised his glass and said : "If you are willing to serve as a professor at Weisenberg University, you can get a house like Ogilvy's. If you are the dean of a college, your annual salary is 300 florins, and we can bring your family here."< br>
Monnarz thought for about ten minutes, and finally raised his glass to toast with everyone.
These scholars are not immortals who can't eat the fireworks of the world. Many people study in order to live a better life.
But when they returned from a trip to the east, the school was gone and they had no place to live, so it was different for whomever they worked for.
Besides, there are many acquaintances here, and since All Might is an official here, Diesel and Julius must have the power to do things easily for the army.
After everyone put down their glasses, Fritz laughed at himself: "Oh... I chose the wrong direction at the time, otherwise I would have made a lot of money."
"Unlike now, I think Wei Duke Sen will not let me make artificial urine to drown the enemy.”
His research direction is a bit biased, and the intermediate products and final products he produced have a smell when dissolved in water. Because of the smell of urine, he was nicknamed the "Urine Alchemist".
At this time, Matthias said to him seriously: "Fritz, we talked with the principal about your research results, and I sent someone to Constantbul to find your family to get some of the white crystals you left behind. Come back and do the experiment according to the principal's guess."
"I haven't reported the experimental results yet, but they have already met the principal's expectations. According to the principal's habit, I will definitely cooperate with you to build the factory."
"Really?" Fritz asked in confusion, "What's that thing for?"
Matthias replied: "Fertilizer, it's a very useful fertilizer."< br>
Fritz shook his head and said with a smile: "I heard on the ship that you can strengthen the seeds to increase production, so why do you need that little fertilizer?"
"Why not?" Matthias became serious. "People have to eat, and plants also have to eat. Neither humans nor plants can eat magic elements."
"I'll use your samples to make it." Experiments show that the yield of wheat can be increased by more than 20%, the yield of golden beans can be increased by about 10%, and the yield of some vegetables can be increased by almost 30%. "
Fritz shouted in surprise: "So much!"
He. My mind was a little messed up. I never thought of using my achievements in planting before, but I tried to use them as poison.
At this time, Ogilvy said to him: "I can arrange a set of alchemy equipment for you. You can make some more. Once it is done, you can conduct experiments on Mathias immediately. If it succeeds, you can prepare for the construction of the alchemy equipment." Factory.”
Fritz himself had no idea, so he said: "Well, let me see if you can lend me some money as start-up funds. But it's getting cold now, so we have to wait until next year to plant plants."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone laughed.
Manuel said to him: "You come to our school first. The school has an emergency fund from which we can allocate some for you to do experiments."
Mattia Si continued: "Don't worry about the planting experiment. You can grow vegetables here in winter. I will arrange several vegetable greenhouses for you tomorrow. You can go and have a look with me."
Fritz I understood what Manuel meant, but I didn’t understand what Mathias was talking about.
"Okay." He finally said, "I'll take a position in the school and get paid first."
Then everyone raised their glasses together.
The next conversation was much more relaxed. At this time, someone asked them: "I heard that you were in such a miserable state when you arrived at Hanma City. What happened?"
Fritz said depressedly. : "Alas, Prince Casimir of the Piast Kingdom lost miserably last year. This year he went to rob the Ant people in the east, and we escaped in a hurry."
