Magic Industry Empire - 881. Chapter 881

A black line faintly appeared at the end of the sea level.

“Master Leslie, Paradise Island is coming.”

“Well, start preparing for landing.” Leslie put down the binoculars in his hand, nodded to the men next to him, and issued an order.

The sailors on the frigate immediately became busy.

About half an hour later, fifteen frigates clustered with two large cargo magic ships arrived at the port of Paradise Island, which was built just half a year later.

The residents of the island saw the approach of the fleet from a distance, but they did not show any expressions of surprise and panic. Instead, they all rushed to the port early with excitement, with full of anticipation. Out of a welcoming posture.

This fleet, which is said to come from the faraway continent of Sainz, came to Paradise Island for the first time. It has been dozens of times before and after this nearly a year. The residents of the island have long been surprised. Strange.

And every time this fleet comes, it will bring a lot of new and good things, such as various special products on the Sainz continent, such as many scarce resources on the island, and various strange but extremely useful magic machines. …

When they sell these precious items to the residents of the island, what they need is not gold coins that are common to all places, but only in exchange for some medicinal ores that are common on the paradise island from the residents of the island.

At the same time, even this unusually wide port with ten piers was funded and built by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, which is affiliated with this fleet.

When building this port, the New Flying Chamber of Commerce also hired a large number of island residents to assist in the construction, and paid a high salary of up to five gold coins a month for them, allowing these residents to make a small profit.

Therefore, for the residents of the island, the New Flying Merchants Association and this fleet are like angels falling from the sky, bringing them all kinds of benefits. Of course, they will treat the fleet each time they arrive. Full of unusual expectations and welcome.

As soon as the fleet docked at the port, residents from countless seasons flocked to it.

However, the first to step down from the frigate was a group of heavily armed soldiers who looked extremely majestic.

The residents of the island are not surprised at this, because according to the people in the fleet, voyages on the endless sea are actually quite dangerous, and you will encounter pirates at every turn. It is natural to maintain basic weapons as protection.

However, the residents of the island found that the escorts who came down from the frigate this time seemed to be much more than usual.

In the past, every time the fleet came, there were only a hundred guards coming down from above. This time, it was endless, with a total of four or five hundred people coming down.

When they lined up in an array on the clearing of the port, they looked black and dazzling.

Of course, when they turned their heads and saw the huge steel ships outside the port that were much larger than usual each time, everyone was relieved.

This time the fleet is much larger, and of course the escorts needed will increase, which is not surprising.

But everyone is also very curious at the same time, why did the fleet that came this time suddenly become larger? He even brought two large cargo magic ships that he hadn’t seen for a long time?

Could it be said… What is this new flying business association going to do on the island this time?

Thinking of the last time such a large-scale fleet appeared, when the port was being built, everyone couldn’t help feeling a little excited.

If this is the case, doesn’t it mean that people like you have the opportunity to work for the New Flying Business Association and make a small profit?

Thinking of this, the enthusiasm of the residents on the island rose even more, and before the subsequent crew members disembarked, they already got together.

If it weren’t for being stopped by the guards who came down early, I’m afraid a bunch of people would have rushed directly onto the boat.

When everyone saw Leslie stepping off the board, a burst of cheers broke out.

Leslie raised his hand to greet the island residents on the dock, which triggered a louder response.

“Hey, these guys are really simple enough.” Leslie smiled slightly, stepped onto the dock, walked to a few boxes that had been erected by the guards, bent his legs slightly, and jumped straight on.

Seeing his appearance, the onlookers on the island were even more excited.

Last time the New Flying Chamber of Commerce announced that it would build this port and recruited workers on the island, this Lord Leslie also announced it from a high place like this.

Now he assumes the same posture, he must announce the same thing too!

The inhabitants of the island on the pier came up like a tide and surrounded Leslie.

Seeing everyone around him gathered, Leslie raised his hands, the noisy surroundings quickly stopped, and everyone focused on him.

“Everyone, announcing good news to everyone. This time we are here, and we plan to open a magic machine parts processing plant on the island. We are also preparing to open a steel mill and develop a mine. Therefore, it is initially estimated that we will need to recruit about two thousand workers. …”

Hearing this, the crowd suddenly burst into an unusually loud exclamation.

Recruiting two thousand workers?

With the gods on top, the population of the entire paradise island would add up to 20,000 to 30,000. This new flying business association is actually about to recruit one-tenth of it all at once!

Putting aside the children and the elderly who have no labor on the island, this means that many of the remaining adults on the island with less than 10,000 will be able to get a good job with at least a monthly salary of hardware coins!

And from the tone of Lord Leslie, it can be heard that these two factories and mines that do not know what they are doing are obviously not just short-term projects like this port, but will be opened for a long time.

This means that as long as people on the island can enter and have the opportunity to work inside, they will get a long-term and stable income.

This is simply the greatest boon for the island residents who can only rely on the island’s resources to barely preserve the fruit.

Although gold coins didn’t make much sense for the paradise island that was almost isolated from the world before, but now the fleet of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce can come frequently to transport goods from Sainz mainland, the gold coins can be quite useful.

For example, a magic fan that can bring people a cool breeze in the hot summer requires three gold coins to buy.

If it was before, people on the island would have to collect a lot of herbs to barely get one, but now if they can get this job, they can even buy one in a month!

“Master Leslie, I want to sign up!” There was a loud shout from the crowd.

After the crowd was quiet for a moment, there was a loud shout, and everyone tried desperately to raise their arms, trying to get Leslie’s attention.

Leslie raised his hands and arms again to signal everyone to be quiet.

“Please listen carefully. Regarding the specific recruitment of workers, we will openly recruit after the factories and mines are officially established. But before that, we have to build these two factories and mines, which also requires a lot of manpower. Those who are willing to assist us in the establishment of these two factories and mines, please sign up at the recruitment office set up by us in a while. We will select the best candidates according to the situation, understand?”

Leslie made it clear, coupled with similar experience before, the crowd onlookers easily accepted this arrangement.

After announcing this matter, they entered the mutual market trade link that both sides have long been proficient in.

This time Les interest led such a huge fleet, and naturally brought various supplies of Sainz mainland, and the residents of the island were also desperately collecting before the new flying chamber of commerce during this time. Purchase herbs, minerals and other items.

The two sides started the original transaction of bartering at the port, and the scene seemed extremely lively for a while.

Leslie looked at the scene from a distance and couldn’t help but shook his head slightly.

Paradise Island hangs alone overseas, isolated from Sainz mainland for too long, and even the most basic currency system has disappeared, and only such primitive trading methods can be used.

It seems that if you want to develop here into a reliable backup base, it will take a lot of work.

Just as Leslie was thinking about his future plans, a subordinate suddenly leaned in and whispered to him: “My lord, there is movement over there.”

“Oh?” Leslie raised his eyebrows and made a waved and chopped gesture to his men. “Pass the order and follow the plan.”

“Yes.”

The subordinates left.

Leslie continued to stay in the shadows next to the pier. After waiting quietly for about ten minutes, he heard the sound of low ground shaking on the distant island land.

“coming.”

Leslie turned his head to look towards the island, and from a distance he saw a group of dark figures rushing towards this side.

The inhabitants of the island who were trading with the sailors of the fleet also heard the sound coming from behind, and turned their heads to look at them.

“The royal family is here!”

“My God! Why are they here?”

“What are they here for?”

“Could they…”

…

After a while, the group of people ran to the edge of the beach, and you could see that they were all dressed in uniform clothes and holding various iron weapons in their hands. Although the formation was scattered, the body shapes were not very uniform. , But it can be seen to some extent that it has received a certain amount of training and can be called an armed force.

Among these people, you can still see a simple carriage drawn by two horses. On the carriage sits a fat middle-aged man with a big belly, piled in it like a mountain of meat, with a special light on his head. The big crown, almost the entire face was buried in, and he couldn’t see his face at all.

After the people stopped, a man came out, took a look at the situation on the beach, and shouted: “What are so many people gathering here for? Do you want to make trouble?”

The residents of the island on the beach stopped their movements, looked at each other, and then turned their heads together to look at Leslie, who had been sitting still on the edge of the beach.

“It’s time for me to go.”

Leslie smiled slightly, stood up, and greeted the team with ease.
