Chapter 202 Overtime Barbecue Jerky
Chapter 202 Overtime Barbecue Jerky
"A family of artisans?"
"Let's go there quickly!"
The small commotion quickly subsided, and all the skilled worker families spontaneously stood at the forefront of their respective manor lines.
Meanwhile, the people behind continued to make noise.
"We live directly south of the main house!"
"But only half of our house is on the south side of the main house!"
Farol watched as the people began to descend into chaos, then turned to look at Zi Yi.
He spoke softly.
"Sir, the main house seems rather large."
If you go directly south from the main house, some residents might not be able to figure it out.
Tsk.
Zi Yi was surprised that he had forgotten about this.
"Then let them divide themselves according to the intersections of their respective estates. Families living north and south of the intersections should stand behind the craftsmen of their respective estates, those living west should stand behind the craftsmen of their respective estates on the west side, and those living east should stand behind the craftsmen of their respective estates on the east side."
"Now they should understand."
Farol nodded and shouted to his people.
"You bunch of idiots who can't even find your own home! The master has new orders! Follow the intersection..."
This time, the people had no objections.
After all, the distance between their houses was quite far.
If it's right next to the intersection, then it's right next to the intersection; if it's not right next to the intersection, then it's not right next to the intersection.
The originally chaotic team was thus split into twelve teams.
Seeing them standing in line, Zi Yi glanced at Li Mosi with a weary expression.
Li Mosi nodded to him.
No problem, you can continue.
"call--"
Zi Yi took a deep breath and addressed the people again.
"You've all done a great job these past two days. The people have been working very hard, and you've done an excellent job too!"
"I saw two roads connecting, new oxcarts and tools, livestock without chaos, and children without crying."
"I have seen the talents of all of you. You have shown me that you are worthy of pursuing happiness!"
"Next, I'm going to divide you into more clearly defined teams so that you won't be crammed together while working."
"Valos Manor, the second son and second daughter of the artisan family, step forward!"
"Yes, sir."
Several adult men and women and a group of children stepped forward.
Zi Yi sniffed.
Yes, the smell is right.
He did not misremember the number of people.
Zi Yi raised his hand and made a gesture.
"The blacksmith, the tanner, and the tailor's second son and second daughter, step forward."
Li Mosi watched as a group of children stepped forward once again.
Of these people, only the tailor's two younger daughters were about to come of age; the others were far from it. Even the eldest of the tanner's three children was only four years old.
The older ones seemed a little uncomfortable, while the younger ones looked at Zi Yi with curiosity.
Zi Yi spoke to them.
"From now on, you will be responsible for leading the people of Valos who are heading south and north from the crossroads. Those who are ten years old or older will lead those who are ten years old or older, and those who are eight years old or older will lead those who are four years old or older. Those who are under eight years old will be responsible for taking care of other children under four years old."
"Do you understand?!"
The people immediately stood up straight.
"Understood, Lord Goblin!"
"Call me... oh well, never mind."
Zi Yi instinctively wanted them to call him leader, but he was afraid the people wouldn't accept it.
The children didn't seem to be afraid of him much.
The slightly older ones don't seem to have fully accepted them yet.
Having already taken in new members of his clan, he believed this was all temporary.
If you can make a difference, things will definitely change.
"Go back."
Zi Yi then looked at the children of other artisan families.
"The second son and second daughter of the brewer and carpenter, step forward."
"Yes, Lord Goblin!"
"From now on, you will be responsible for leading the people of Valos westward from the crossroads. Those who are ten years old or older will lead those who are ten years old or older, and those who are eight years old or older will lead those who are four years old or older. Those who are under eight years old will be responsible for taking care of other children under four years old."
"Understood, Lord Goblin!"
"The stonemason, the shepherd's second son and second daughter, step forward."
"Yes, sir!"
"From now on, you will be responsible for leading the people of Valos eastward from the crossroads..."
Zi Yi quickly divided the people of the three manors into nine teams.
Then he looked at the craftsmen and their eldest son.
"As for the craftsmen and the eldest sons, your work will be assigned by us. Report your progress to me daily. When I'm not around, inform Farol. I will check on you."
"Understood, sir!"
Zi Yi waved his hand.
"Team leader, return to the team and let your teammates get to know you."
"Yes, sir!"
The craftsmen were naturally very happy.
While they could ensure that their eldest son or daughter would inherit the craft and become the next generation of artisans to continue to be well-fed and clothed, they could not guarantee the livelihood of their second son or daughter.
This immediately made their second son and second daughter managers, which clearly elevated their status.
It's better than originally getting a small plot of land from home.
The people naturally obeyed.
Although they only multiplied for a few generations in this territory, under the exploitative management of the original families, ordinary people had very little chance to have offspring.
Nearly half of the families and artisan families are related by marriage.
Furthermore, craftsmen themselves have a certain degree of influence.
Even if he's not as good as Farol, the butler's assistant, he's still a minor local notable.
Let the children of these craftsmen manage it; they'll be more familiar with it.
The Hammer family was overjoyed.
Farol became the de facto housekeeper, and they had no reason not to be happy.
"From now on, you'll listen to me!"
"OK!"
"Work hard, everyone, and we'll all eat meat together!"
"Can you give me meat to eat?"
"Get lost!"
Seeing the new team leader begin to recognize the team members, Zi Yi turned to look at Li Mosi.
Li Mosi quietly gave him a thumbs up and nodded.
Zi Yi's approach was simple and crude: he divided the people into groups according to their residences and then grouped the second sons and daughters of different artisan families of different ages together.
Larger teams are managed by the second sons and second daughters of three craftsmen, while smaller teams are managed by the second sons and second daughters of two craftsmen.
This is a playstyle that is quite suitable for the current situation.
Given the current situation of the people, there shouldn't be any problems.
Li Mosi spoke softly.
"I'm leaving the rest to you."
Wow?
Zi Yi paused for a moment, then nodded.
After the team leaders had identified their members, the teams regrouped into twelve groups.
He had already thought about what to say next.
"I'm very pleased with your achievements these past two days! I've decided to include an item to lift your curse in dinner!"
"what?"
"Lord Goblin, will you lift the curse for us?"
"Can we also receive this blessing?"
"Shut up! Don't interrupt the adults!"
It took the entire process—from the residents' initial excitement to their own efforts to maintain order and then back to quiet—less than a minute.
Although it was prenatal education graduation, the order was acceptable.
"But the curse wasn't lifted for nothing; you still have to work at night!"
Zi Yi turned to the side and pointed to the tribesmen who were roasting dried meat.
"You need to roast the meat until it's as hard as leather jerky. Work in teams! I'll have someone teach you how to do it. Each team that roasts ten qualified jerky pieces will get one as a reward!"
There are even rewards?!
"Thank you for your kindness, sir!"
"I'll follow Lord Goblin even if it kills me!"
This time, no one interrupted their cheers.
Because the artisan's family was too busy having fun.
After the cheers subsided, Zi Yi gave the final order before the meal.
"Now, line up for food!"
