Struggle in the Steam Age

"Miss Nora, how did you come up with this good method?" A sweaty attendant watched as the crowds squeezed into the open space in front of the table, and then obediently obeyed the instructions of the staff. The look of admiration. Because the little dolls just got a lot more results than their group of people have been busy for a long time.

Before receiving the task for the first time, these personnel immediately got busy to build the podium and prepare their own propaganda tasks.

It's a pity that the mission didn't go smoothly at the beginning. The people basically didn't want to come over and listen. Only a few people took this open space to sit and rest.

But the puppets quickly put out a large amount of snacks and put them on the table, and then asked everyone to claim that as long as everyone can listen to the promotion for ten minutes, then each of them can receive two snacks.

As a result, after changing the new propaganda method, the circled open space was full of people in just five minutes.

"The principle of this method is very simple to explain, that is, all the people in the dock area are waiting for the leaving ships, but there are not enough ships now." Because time is not a reason for tightness, Nora is also willing to take it out. Take a moment to tell the subordinates of these elder brothers some life experiences.

"In other words, these people may need to stay in the port for a long period of time, so they actually have a lot of free time to listen to what we tell. As long as we find the right way, we can gather them. Come here, for example, sending out some free snacks is enough."

The reason why Nora can think of this is because she has found a lot of Lawrence’s memories from Lawrence’s last life about how those scammers fooled the elderly to listen to their lectures by giving eggs or snacks. I took the opportunity to sell fake content, so I changed this method a bit and used it now.

According to the results, this kind of scammers' approach to human weakness is indeed very good. At least now, most of the people who are boring on the pier preparing to leave have been attracted, and then they have heard the publicity of the staff on the various situations of New Sauer Island.

When a group of people listened and left, the staff from Sauer Island would distribute snacks to them one by one. It also hinted that they could use the promotional documents they just got to wrap these snacks. In this way, these promotional documents can be kept in their hands for a longer period of time.

For the transportation of departing personnel, the island was busy for more than a week before it was basically over. At this time, there were more than 40,000 people and nearly 50,000 people on the island and only less than 7,000 were left.

And after canceling four or five thousand people who planned to stay on the island and not going anywhere in this group, only about two thousand two hundred people were willing to follow Lawrence to new places.

"This person is really too few." Lawrence frowned after looking at the final list of statistics. He originally thought that the worst should be able to recruit 1/10 of the talents, but what he didn't expect was that he was finally willing The people who walked with him were only half of the worst scenario imagined.

Soon after Lawrence arrived on the island by the Clippers, New Sauer Island sent a fleet headed by the Enterprise to pick up people. What they didn't expect was that the number of people who needed to be transported was much less than in the previous plan, so that the supplies prepared by imagination were basically not available.

"In fact, this is understandable. After all, these people on the island are neither indigenous nor formally hired workers. So naturally they hope to leave here quickly and return to their hometown under the current situation."

Naturally, Nora had seen this list before, so she flew to Lawrence's shoulder and patted him and comforted. "This is not our problem."

To be honest, if it hadn’t been for Lawrence and the others desperately to stay here, and the slave laborers who had been freed during this period of time had also found out that Lawrence’s reputation is indeed good, even the two thousand people might not be able to stay. . It can also be seen from this that a good reputation can still play a role in many places.

"Well, we should think about better places. For example, now we can use our ship to ship these people back in one go. There is no need to ship them two or three times as planned." After discovering that the matter is over, Lawrence quickly adjusted his mood and found some lucky news in misfortune.

"By the way, how should we transport the people back? Should they be transported directly to the newly acquired Cruise Islands?" After standing at the bow of the ship and looking at the lines of people on the pier, Nara told Lawrence Asked. "At least we have received news that the last people on the island who are willing to stay are only about 1,000."

"It's definitely not suitable to go to the Cruz Islands, because there will be more than a month to wait for the sugar cane to be harvested, so they should not have enough space and resources to entertain these newcomers." Lawrence said and looked at a distant one. The team fleet is slowly approaching the port, and the sides of the fleet are crowded with people.

This fleet is a fleet sent by the referee, and the people on it are workers temporarily hired to harvest sugar cane. According to common sense, the last crops of the last season should be harvested when the territory is exchanged. But since the workers on this island were slaves, Lawrence could not prevent them from leaving.

You should know that during this period of sugarcane planting, you may not need much manpower, but starting planting, harvesting and processing requires a lot of manpower~www.ltnovel.com~Welfare] Give you a cash red envelope! Follow the vx public [Book Friends Base Camp] to receive it!

Therefore, those who are willing to stay in this situation will barely maintain the sugarcane field management. It is almost impossible to imagine the traditional harvest and processing of sugarcane.

Especially sugarcane is different from other cash crops. Once harvested and not processed in time, the plant rhizomes that are rich in sugar will rot at an extraordinary rate in the local hot climate. So if you want to handle these things perfectly, it is basically impossible without enough manpower.

The manpower that Lawrence currently has is simply not enough, and it is naturally impossible to obtain such a time at the cost of slowing the development of New Sauer Island. Not to mention that both the harvesting and processing of sugarcane require specialized personnel, but those laborers on New Sauer Island simply do not have the skills in this area.

In this case, in order to avoid wasting sugar cane, Lawrence simply donated all the harvest this season as donations to the court. It is much easier to find enough labor with their network resources than Lawrence himself. It was only a few days before the ships full of labor came to this place from the entire sea area.

As a response to Lawrence’s friendly approach, the court at www.ltnovel.com also organized a group of prestigious people in this sea area to start appraising the various industries on the two islands.

After all, island exchange is just territory exchange, and the infrastructure construction on the island needs to be recalculated, and the price difference needs to be made up.

However, the time required for this statistical summary is not short, so Lawrence does not intend to wait for the calculation results on the island, but intends to return directly to New Sauer Island.

"Then we will go directly back to New Sauer Island, and we should go back for a few days if we want to come out." Nara said that she felt a little regretful here.

The sugarcane harvest in one season is always a large amount, so it is a pity to give up directly. However, it is always good to be able to exchange these benefits that are destined to be unavailable for the favor of the court.

"Yeah, now we should go back too. If we don't go back quickly, we won't be able to catch up with the completion of the construction of the Niujiaowan Plain Irrigation Main Canal." Lawrence said, watching the packs of supplies being transported to the ship. "After the main irrigation canal is completed this time, Niujiaowan can be developed step by step in a short time, so that you can free up more energy to do other things."
