Chapter 152 Reserved in Advance

The carriage carried Steele, Mia, and Liz from the east gate of Banta City to the lower reaches of the Sandy River not far to the east of the old city of Banta City.

When the newly built pier near the mouth of the Sandy River entering the Sanglang Canal stops, you can see that besides dozens of human workers, there are also a group of nearly a hundred orcs with different appearances on the pier. family.

Seeing the carriage drive in, the leader of the human side, President Potter, and a tiger orc who seemed to be the leader of the orcs came up to meet him.

Steele got out of the carriage with the help of Liz, President Potter glanced at her stomach, and said apologetically, "Ma'am, I'm really sorry that you need to go out in this weather." Come on, it's been hard work."

"It's nothing." Steele smiled and waved his hands, then turned to look at the tiger orc. "Rokhan, are all your people here?"

The tiger orcs opened their mouths wide: "Everyone is here, look, they are all waiting there."

Steele glanced at those orcs, read the head with satisfaction, and then asked President Potter: "President Potter, have you inspected these orcs? Do you think they are qualified?"

President Porter read the head again and again with a smile on his face: "Satisfied, very satisfied. Our fleet only needs to be strong enough and physically strong enough. They are just right for them."

Steele turned his head to Lockhan and asked, "What about you, are you satisfied with the treatment conditions and work proposed by the Porter Chamber of Commerce?"

Lockhan read the head vigorously like garlic: "Well, we are also very satisfied. The brothers have said that working here is much better than at home."

"That's good. Since both of you have no objections, let's start signing the employment contract, and I will be a witness." Steele said.

"it is good."

"it is good."

President Porter and Lockhan both agreed in unison, and they walked together to a hut next to the pier, ready to sign the contract.

In fact, they have already agreed on everything with each other, but because this is the city of Bangta, it is also the first time in the Kingdom of Lampari that other chambers of commerce hire orc workers. Chambers of Labor Qualification Certification to testify.

It really doesn't make a difference if Steele comes or not, but given the first time this has happened. Still, Steele came running in person.

"Ma'am, it's windy and cold by the river, why don't you go inside?" Liz reminded in a low voice.

Steele shook his head, walked up to the group of orcs, and looked over one by one.

These orcs were similar to those she had come into contact with before, all of them were dressed in rags, and some even didn't even have a whole set of clothes at all, with a large area of ​​skin exposed.

Although the physique of the orcs is much stronger than that of ordinary humans, many of the orcs are still shivering at this time. His face was ugly.

Among them, there are two youngsters from the Fox and Rabbit tribes who are slightly weaker in physique and have extremely immature faces, with blue faces. It looked as if he would faint from the cold at any moment.

Steele couldn't help frowning, turned around and called Mia over.

"Let's arrange a place for them to live in first. Don't let them stand here. They will freeze to death in a while, and they won't even be able to do their work." Steele confessed.

Mia was a little embarrassed: "They are not regular workers of our Chamber of Commerce, so it's not easy to arrange..."

"It won't be long." Steele gave her a glare. "Let's arrange it first, and it's better to give them a set of clothes first."

Mia was even more hesitant: "One set of clothes per person... That would cost a lot of money... Our chamber of commerce has just reopened, and money is already tight..."

Steele was a little annoyed: "How much gold is worth a set of clothes for one person? If you are afraid of spending extra money, you can just give them this set of clothes as work clothes and deduct them from their new water later. If you are worried about spending too much, then go to the Armani Chamber of Commerce to buy it, just say what I mean. Let the Armani Chamber of Commerce provide you with a batch at a low price."

Seeing that Steele's tone was a little serious, Mia didn't dare to have any rebuttal thoughts, so she quickly responded.

After calculating in her heart, a gleam of joy appeared on her face.

Since Miss Steele said this, if she just went to the Armani Chamber of Commerce, she would definitely buy a batch of clothes at a very low price.

Then she deducted the clothes distributed to the orc workers from their salaries according to the market price in the future, wouldn't she make a small profit instead?

The gleam of joy on Mia's face naturally couldn't be hidden from Steele. After thinking about it, she understood what Mia was thinking, and she was a little annoyed and amused at once.

President Porter is obviously a big-hearted and far-sighted businessman, whom Xu Yi called a promising businessman, but why did he marry such a stingy, calculating wife, and even less far-sighted?

Even though she only needed a set of clothes to win the hearts of these orc workers, she was still thinking about it.

If President Potter knew what she was thinking, it would be no wonder he wasn't pissed off.

Thinking of this, Steele was suddenly startled.

When you are doing something, do you show the same posture without realizing it?

If she was like Mia, Xu Yi would be extremely disgusted.

What's more, even if Xu Yi is not disgusted, she herself absolutely cannot accept that she has become such a woman.

Frowning and thinking for a while, Steele waved his hand, motioning for Mia to immediately arrange the resettlement of those orc workers.

Not long after, President Potter and Lockhan came out again.

Steele took the two copies of the employment contract handed over by the two and read them carefully. After confirming that there was no problem, he took out his personal seal and stamped it, and then handed it back to the two.

After accepting the contract, President Potter and Lockhan heaved a sigh of relief at the same time. One man and one orc looked at each other and laughed at the same time.

President Porter extended his hand to Rock Khan: "Rock Khan, the fleet of our Chamber of Commerce will depend on you and the orc brothers to help us."

Lockhan cracked his mouth and laughed loudly: "Don't worry, we orcs are all of one mind. The contract has been signed, then we will definitely work hard."

Although the two talked happily and the atmosphere was warm, Steele poured cold water on both of them.

"President Potter, as an employer, if the orcs such as Rockhan violate the employment contract, you have the right to fire them. But it should be noted that since the contract has been signed, you have to treat them as a contract with them." Ordinary human workers are treated the same, there can be no discrimination.”

"Definitely, ma'am, don't worry." President Potter read the head with a smile.

"Lockhan, since you and the other orcs have accepted the employment contract, you must strictly follow the stipulations in the contract, work conscientiously, and make no mistakes. If you are dismissed by the Potter Chamber of Commerce for violating the contract, then according to the regulations, Depending on the seriousness of the case, your labor certification may be revoked, and you may not be able to apply for a labor certification again within two to five years. So, please cherish this job opportunity.”

Lockhan patted his chest hard, and said loudly: "Our orc race will never be a villain who turns back, and we will definitely do what we promise!"

"That's good." Steele read the head, and said to President Potter: "Okay, my work is done, I will go back to rest first. If you have any questions about the orc employees in the future, welcome to Potter President, you continue to contact our New Moon Chamber of Commerce."

President Potter hurriedly stopped Steele who was about to leave, and said sincerely: "Madam, there is one more thing I need you to do me a favor."

Steele looked at him suspiciously.

This guy, why didn't he say anything else before?

President Potter smiled awkwardly, and asked Mia to continue arranging for the orc workers, while he led Steele to a sealed hut on the other side of the pier.

This hut was built on the edge of the pier near the river, and a shed was built just on the river.

After entering the hut, you can see three small boats floating on the covered piece of water.

Steele glanced at the three small boats, then at President Potter with a flattering smile in front of him, his heart moved, and he roughly understood what was going on.

But on the surface, she still didn't show any signs of expression, just kept smiling, waiting for President Potter to speak.

President Potter was silent for a moment, rubbed his hands, and asked, as if a little embarrassed: "Ma'am, I heard... Xinfei Chamber of Commerce seems to be developing a new type of magic machine, called a magic ship?"

As expected.

Steele smiled slightly: "You are still very well informed, is it because Xu Yi mentioned it to you before?"

"President Xu mentioned this idea to me before, but I know that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has only recently developed this kind of research and development. Ma'am, do you know the current research and development progress of this magic ship? After it is developed, can it be officially sold and used?"

Steele shook his head slightly: "I only know that the Institute of Magic has indeed had this research and development project during this period, but the progress of the research and development... I don't know. And even if it is clear, I'm afraid it's not easy to disclose it to you. You should understand. "

"I understand, I understand, is this a secret?" President Porter repeated his head. "But I'm not here to inquire about the secrets. The main reason is... to know the news in advance. In this way, as long as the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce can really develop this magic ship, then I can buy it immediately."

"There isn't even a shadow of this magic ship right now, so you want to buy it?" Steele asked.

"Of course!" President Porter said with great certainty: "Since it is something developed by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the effect is of course particularly powerful. I'm sure that this magic ship will be in short supply just like the magic locomotive. I don't want to I will compete with a bunch of people in the future, so I hope...cough, I hope Madam, you can talk to Chairman Xu and let our chamber of commerce book a few magic ships in advance."
