Chapter 1069

Old Stewart is a villager of lvluo village in the suburb of Bain. His family has worked diligently on the earth for generations.

Old Stewart has good farming skills, so he can barely support his family. Sometimes he will help the villagers. Although his life is tight, he can make do with it.

Later, after his majesty Donne took office, several tax cuts, especially the policy of reducing agricultural tax, greatly increased the income of farmers and finally gave them hope for life.

Many people have become rich, and the villagers are very grateful to his majesty Donne. However, the old Stewart's family still hasn't changed much. On the contrary, because of the rising prices, life is more and more sad, because he has too many children.

Although his eldest son (18 years old) and eldest daughter (15 years old) have become adults, and they also do some bricklayers and carpenters in the village to help support the family, it is still far from enough. The second daughter (13 years old) and the second son (9 years old) are too young to help people sell vegetables and newspapers in the village and barely make some money. The youngest son is only 3 years old and doesn't know anything.

With his family, it is impossible to support so many children, but what can he do?

In an era when entertainment means are so scarce, the only way of entertainment after dinner at night is to make people. It happens when you're not careful. He's also very desperate!

He only worked harder to earn money, and helped farm old fellow blacksmiths to help create small things. They were said to be selling well in beain and his skills were good, so the old blacksmith had always been willing to hire him.

Old fellow blacksmith is paid 10 dollars a day, that is to say, a month can earn more than 3 gold extra income, which was unimaginable in the past, but now prices are rising, and this income is also stretched.

"Didi!"

The sudden sound frightened old Stewart in a daze at the entrance of the village. He looked back and found a beautiful metal box parked there.

He recognized that old fellow. The bein said that it was called the magic energy car. It was very valuable. It was a transportation tool that rich people could afford to buy, and the small parts he built on the old blacksmith were said to be used for the maintenance of the magic energy car.

"Hey, old man! What are you staring at!"

Hearing the sound, old Stewart widened his eyes, looked carefully, and was startled: "Holt!?"

"Ha ha! Of course it's me!"

Holt got out of the car, walked proudly to old Stewart and said, "how do I look?"

Old Stewart looked up and down at Holt, shocked and speechless.

That's because Holt was his former neighbor and a farmer, but now old Stewart can't believe it was Holt himself.

Because his clothes were too clean, too solemn and too luxurious, old Stewart even felt that Holt was as dazzling as the aristocrats!

Old Stewart said honestly, "it's like a noble master. Won't you really become a noble master?"

"How!"

Holt lost his voice and said with a smile, "but what I'm doing now should be better than the noble lords before."

Old Stewart took a breath of air-conditioning: "are you really rich there?"

Holt smiled proudly, pointed to the magic car and said, "what do you think?"

At the beginning of the year, people in lvluo village heard that someone was recruiting in Bain. The place to go was Ellington. It was best for the whole family to go together. At that time, several families left the village one after another, including the Holts, but old Stewart was not excited.

Because he can't afford to gamble, his wife and children are counting on him to live. Now the situation at home is just a little bit better. With a little savings, he sees the hope of life. If he wants to move the whole family, it means that everything should start from scratch.

The family burden is so heavy that old Stewart can't make the choice of family relocation so decisively.

"You have no idea what a wonderful city Ellington is!"

Holt said with a sigh on his face: "looking back at the beginning of the year, I can't imagine that I can live this life now!"

Holt invited old Stewart to get on the bus and go home together, but old Stewart didn't dare. He was too dirty for fear of soiling his seat.

"What are you afraid of!"

Holt curled his mouth and said, "just wash it when it's dirty. It's just a transportation tool. If you make money in the future, change it for a better one!"

"Isn't that good enough?"

"What's good! I'm just the cheapest Daming. The discount price for activities, tax payment and licensing are only more than 900 gold."

More than nine hundred gold! nothing more!

Old Stewart was shocked again: "how rich are you now?"

"Carelessly, there are still tens of thousands of gold. Unfortunately, I can't afford Datang."

Although he spoke carelessly, Holt's face was full of pride.

Ten thousand gold!

Old Stewart looked unbelievable: "what have you done?"

How can you make so much money in a year without robbing your family!?

"I'm lucky, too. Ha ha, get in the car and I'll tell you."

After old Stewart got on the bus, Holt began to show off his experience after leaving lvluo village.

Holt's luck was really good. He just caught up with the most critical period of Ellington's rapid development. During that period, Donne and Fiona were worried about labor shortage all day, and Holt came to Ellington at this time.

After simple training, he was arranged to be an assembly line worker in the workshop of Datang heavy industry, living a simple life of three points and one line every day.

If it's just like this, according to the welfare treatment of Datang chamber of Commerce, he can save about thousands of gold without eating or drinking a year.

However, looking at the good life of those outside, Holt was not satisfied.

He found that although the overall process of Datang heavy industry was complex, some places were not difficult. I heard that Datang chamber of Commerce was still supporting some small chambers of Commerce and supporting employees to start businesses. After careful observation for a while, he began to try to make some parts by himself. After success, he boldly went to the supervisor and planned to contract part of the processing of this part.

The supervisor checked the parts he made and applied to the above after finding that they were indeed qualified. It happened that Donne also mentioned supporting the development of the industrial chain at the beginning, so Fiona didn't look carefully and approved it casually.

Although Datang chamber of Commerce has invested 51% of the shares in the new chamber of Commerce in terms of supporting policies, the remaining 49% is more than he earns from working in the workshop!

After that, Holt took the entrepreneurship support fund issued by the Finance Department of Datang chamber of Commerce and began to boldly solicit people to start work. As a result, he really made a breakthrough and even married another wife.

"... so I say, people should be bold and dare to do it, otherwise they may have to nest in the ground and dig for food all their life."

After summarizing his experience, Holt said, "I came back this time just to find you to work with me!"

"Looking for me?"

"Yes, you have been working helpers in the old blacksmith, and he has been praising you. Old fellow Smith is old fellow, so he can't afford to toss, so finding you is the best."

Holt said, "I have more and more work there now. I can't be busy myself. I must find a trusted talent. If you come and have a simple training, I can give you a technical director. If I don't say much for a month, I'll give you at least that number!"

Looking at his five open fingers, old Stewart said quietly, "5 gold? Too little..."

"Old man! You look down on me! Would I treat our family's savior like this?"

Holt's eyes widened. In the past, when there was a famine, he was saved by old Stewart: "if I give workers 5 gold per month, don't say workers don't want to, Datang chamber of Commerce will probably trouble me! Do you know what the minimum monthly living standard of Ellington is now? 50 gold!"

"50 gold? That's good..."

"I gave you ten times this number! 500 gold!"

Holt said proudly, "old man, as long as you're willing to work with me, you'll only make more money in the future!"

500 gold!

one month!

Old Stewart was stunned by the number.

"Old man, listen to me. Don't dig in the soil. Let me tell you an inside story. From next spring, our country will fully implement agricultural mechanization. One person can cultivate more land than a thousand people! What do you think you can do if you continue to cultivate land like this?"

"I know you don't have much savings at home. To show my sincerity, here is the fare I prepared for you! Listen to me, your family can move here!"

Old Stewart took the new stack of money and came home ignorant.

Looking at several faces, big and small, in the dark room, he felt sour and stamped his feet, and finally made a decision!

……

The intercity bus drove smoothly into the passenger center on the outskirts of Ellington and stopped slowly.

"Ellington has arrived. Please line up and get off in an orderly manner. Passengers carrying luggage should take out their gifts as soon as possible. At the same time, please take your ticket to the exit for ticket inspection."

Here we are

Ellington, this golden city

After getting off the bus, old Stewart looked at Ellington not far away and shook his hands and patted his cheeks. He had risked everything. Whether he could live depends on whether the city is as magical as the legend.

"Honey, will Holt really give you that much salary..."

Standing next to old Stewart was his wife, followed by five children of all sizes.

Before old Stewart spoke, he saw a young beauty with a "discipline committee" armband suddenly running over with surprise and asked, "are you new?"

He nodded blankly.

"Is this your wife and... Five children?"

Old Stewart nodded nervously, "yes... What's the matter?"

Looking at the five children night and night, his face was full of surprises. It seemed that he couldn't believe that he could complete this arduous task so easily!
