Gordon's face darkened visibly, but his wife hadn't noticed the change in his expression, and continued to talk.
"The salary of the craftsmen over there is more than 1.5 times that of ours. With your craftsmanship, you would have earned more money in the past. By then, our life will be better..."
"Stop talking." Gordon's tone was not so soft, but his wife still didn't respond.
"Listen to what others have said, the Viscount Griffin is about to rise up now, and maybe it will be much more developed than we are here in the future."
"Crack!" Gordon slapped the knife and fork in his hand on the table!
He said sharply: "Didn't I tell you! Stop talking, why are you still talking about these things! I tell you, our ancestors have lived in Kexi City for five or six generations, and even if he develops further It doesn't matter how good it is, and these things are all out of the question. We hear what others say and hear what others say. It's all what others say. If our salary suddenly drops after passing by, then our family of four will go to the Northwest for a drink. Let the wind go!"
Gordon's wife, seeing her husband's tantrum, closed her mouth wisely.
He whispered, "I'm just making an opinion, it doesn't matter if I go or not."
Gordon also noticed that his tone was a little heavy, which scared the two children, and picked up the knife and fork and said solemnly: "Let's eat."
Bev looked at her parents, and finally buried herself in the food in front of her. She didn't understand anything at her age, she only knew that her parents were quarreling, so she could eat quietly. .
...
The next morning, Gordon got up early and rushed to the blacksmith shop not far from home. He was about to cheer up and earn tuition for his two children.
Gordon's reputation still existed in Corsi City. After a while, an acquaintance came to commission him to build a batch of mining tools. This order could bring him a huge sum of money.
Because it was an acquaintance, Gordon started chatting with each other while working.
"Myron, aren't the mines in our territory paid to the Viscount Griffin? Logically speaking, these tools should not be needed anymore. Do you want such a large amount?"
Unexpectedly, the other party looked around with a mysterious look on his face. After seeing that there was no one around, he was relieved.
"Gordon, I told you only because you are old friends, don't tell me."
Gordon wiped the sweat from his forehead, patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, you still don't know who I am."
"Our side is indeed not lacking these things, but the viscounts on the opposite side are lacking. Their lords will develop the four minerals by themselves. You said that there were no minerals on their side before, so they naturally lacked them. The tools for mining are not only lacking, but also in huge gaps, so I can probably earn more than ten gold coins by dumping the leftovers."
Gordon stopped what he was doing when he heard the amount behind, and looked over in surprise.
"Myron, don't be deceived. The cost of these goods is not small. If you don't sell them, you will be in vain this year."
"No, it's a solid profit! I've been to that city of Nafu...hey! Let me tell you, the streets of their city are tidy and clean, much better than our city of Corsi, and The atmosphere inside is completely different from ours, and you can really feel it if you go there."
Gordon pursed his lips when he heard these words, wondering what he was thinking.
"The topic has gone off the track, let's continue. I have been to that city of Nafu, those rumors are true, their lord really wants to mine those ore by himself, and some residents there have already started to go there. It's a mine, and the mining tools are indeed in a big gap, and there are very few blacksmiths on their side… Hey, you should know this."
"These days, Viscount Griffin has been madly recruiting various talents from the nearby territories, especially the blacksmiths who recruited more, and the prices given are very high, so I have to quickly deliver this batch of goods. , if it's later, you won't be able to make money."
Gordon touched the tip of his nose and asked, "Is this true?"
"What really?"
"That Viscount Griffin really paid a high price to recruit a blacksmith?"
"Really! On the way back, I saw several blacksmiths from nearby cities dragging their families over. Let me tell you, the benefits they give are very high, not only high wages, but also talents. When the household registration is relocated to Nafu City, I will directly send a house that is enough for a family of five without spending money! And the schools there are still free, as long as you pay for room and board, it's very cheap!"
Myron said with envy and jealousy in his eyes, "If I hadn't been recruited by their talent, I would have thought about it."
After listening to Myron's words, Gordon's hand holding the hammer trembled slightly.
He suppressed his inner excitement and asked, "Is that Viscount Griffin so rich? Why is he so willing."
"Did you know about iodized salt?... Forget it, you probably haven't heard of it. Anyway, he is very rich. If you add these four mines, his annual income, not including taxes, will be three or four million gold coins. about."
In fact, Myron still underestimated Claire's current earning ability. In terms of iodized salt alone, after cooperating with Sophia, she can earn nearly 3 million yuan a year. If you add minerals, Claire's annual income can even be close to 10 million yuan. gold coins.
"As for reluctance? Do you know why our territory is going to war with the Viscount Griffin?"
Green raised his head and thought for a moment, "It seems that we beat the opponent's knight?"
"This is just a fuse. The first reason was because our lords blocked the water for the three rivers they gave them, and the farmers in the downstream Griffin Viscounty had no water to irrigate their farmland. This is the most important thing. The fundamental reason. You see, he will go to war with other lords for his own people. If you want this to happen to us, do you think our lords don't care if we live or die?"
"So Viscount Griffin is very willing in terms of money. He even took out a large amount of money to give free loans to people in his city to use for business. You didn't see a lot of people coming to Corsi City recently. A new caravan? It's all from Nafhu."
The more he listened to Myron, the more excited Gordon's heart became.
So it seems that the Viscounty Griffin is really good, I seem to have misunderstood the other party, and my side is the evil one!
"Bang!" Gordon threw the hammer in his hand on the ground and took off his blacksmith's uniform.
"Myron, I'm sorry." Gordon put out the red-hot fire.
Myron was still confused and didn't know what happened~www.mtlnovel.com~ I can't do your business. You should find someone else. I'm going home to find my wife. "
"What's the matter?"
"My family is also moving to Nafu City."
Seeing Gordon's retreating back, Myron couldn't help but want to slap himself twice, but blamed himself for being too talkative. Now, where can I find a blacksmith with such good craftsmanship!
...
Gordon pushed open the door and shouted, "Pack up, we'll move now!"
He was afraid that he would be a step late, and the quota for that talent would be robbed.
The wife came out of the kitchen, saw her anxious husband, and quickly asked, "I just prepared breakfast for you, what's wrong with you? Where are we moving?"
"Nafu City!" Gordon walked over and hugged his wife gently, "Honey, I should have listened to you yesterday."
Then, he repeated what Myron said.
Gordon's wife also showed an excited smile on her face, and she was beaming with excitement.
Looking at her husband, she couldn't help but jokingly said, "I don't know who said yesterday that my ancestors were from Kexi City for five or six generations. If you kill him, don't move out. Why did you change your mind so quickly today?"
A rare embarrassed and shy expression appeared on Gordon's face, "My ancestors of the fifth and sixth generations also moved from other places..."
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore, let's get ready."
"Well, you prepare at home first. I'm going to Nafu City now and I'll be back as soon as I have news."
"Be careful on the road!"
