章 43: Chapter 43 New Servant
Chapter 43 New Servant
For ordinary people, being able to enter the castle and become a servant of the lord and nobles is a very fortunate thing.
Firstly, as long as you join the castle, you don't have to worry about starving or freezing in most cases, and you can also have a stable income;
Secondly, entering the castle will give you the opportunity to get close to the nobles. If you are lucky, you will have the opportunity to receive rewards and even change your destiny and improve your social class!
So when Chahar on the grassland announced that Shanlin Castle wanted to recruit twenty servants, the subjects who had not yet dispersed became excited, and many of them volunteered to rush forward.
If David, Tom and other extraordinary knights had not been maintaining order on the scene, the young butler would probably have been completely surrounded by the surging crowd.
The enthusiasm for the competition was very high, but with Chahal's words, many people immediately lost interest.
The reason is that apart from the chef, Hillwood Castle only needs people between the ages of 18 and 35. There will be no chance for those above this age.
Next comes the big screening.
When it comes to selecting people, Chahar first complies with the three requirements put forward by Luo Ning and, secondly, with some standards he set himself.
For example, servants who were responsible for heavy work, such as carrying and moving things in the castle, were required to look strong and sturdy;
For example, if someone wants to be Ronin's personal valet, he would require him to be decent-looking, smart, and quick to react.
For example, the personal maid. Although the Master doesn't seem to be very interested in women, Chahar thinks the personal maid should be as beautiful as possible.
After all, when Roning goes out to visit other nobles in the future, he will have personal servants and maids to follow and serve him. If they look strange, it will damage the reputation of the Baron of Shanlin Town.
Chahar will never allow such things to happen.
Therefore, he spent less time selecting other servants but spent a long time in the positions of personal maid and personal butler.
It was not until after four o'clock in the afternoon that Chahar gathered twenty servants and brought them to the castle to meet Roning.
On the grass outside the main building of the inner castle, Roning looked at the servants standing in rows in front of him and nodded slightly.
"Thank you for your hard work, Chahar. You did a great job."
Chahar bowed and said, "Thank you for your compliment, sir."
As he said this, he began to introduce himself.
The three people standing in the front are the personal valet, Galen, the personal maid, Bella, and the kitchen cook, Bandele.
"Gallen is a 19-year-old boy. There are four people in his family. His father was a guard who followed the Earl here a few years ago and was responsible for logistics."
"Bella is also 19 years old. Her parents are freemen in the town and farm some fields."
"Mrs. Bandler is 38 years old. Although she is old, I have personally eaten the food she makes in her shabby bakery. Compared with others, it is the best."
When he introduced them, these new and somewhat nervous servants saluted and greeted Roning one after another. Each one of them was very reserved. After all, the lord had a reputation as a killer.
Ronin looked at them.
These people were all wearing clothes made of linen, which were similar in style. The difference was that some of the people's clothes were newer, while some of the people's clothes had several patches on them, which showed that their living environment was not very good.
This is normal. After all, they are civilians living in the mountains. It is good enough for them to be strong and able to wear clothes. The requirements cannot be too high.
It was this maid that made Roning take a closer look. She was quite pretty. With a little dressing up, she might be even prettier than Princet's two lovers.
Chahar is worthy of being someone who has studied in Wushanbao, and he still has some vision.
Behind these three people were the ordinary servants in the castle, servants in charge of livestock, and so on.
Luo Ning didn't spend much time trying to remember their names. After all, the people he had more contact with in daily life were probably only the three people mentioned above.
"Very good, you are welcome to join us."
After Chahar finished his introduction, Luo Ning said a few words of welcome, "Chahar, there should be some costumes for the servants in the castle. You can distribute them later."
"Also, teach them basic etiquette, especially Gallon and Bella. You may follow me out later, so you need to change some of your bad habits."
Chahar felt relieved.
Before he came, he thought the Master would find fault with two people and ask him to recruit again, but he didn't expect that all twenty people would pass.
"Don't worry, Master. I will teach them basic etiquette when we get downstairs. I will pay special attention to Galen and Bella!"
Luo Ning did not continue to express any opinions on the issue of servants. Chahar was educated, so he could just leave these matters to him.
"First, send me the second recruitment information to Hillwood Town."
He had to arrange the affairs of the political officer first and said, "I need to recruit a political officer. All the citizens of Shanlin Town can come to the castle to apply at nine o'clock tomorrow morning."
"Of course, not everyone can do it."
He stressed: "In addition to the points mentioned yesterday, the age limit can be relaxed to 40 years old and below. In addition, you must be able to read and write most words, and your mobility cannot be restricted."
The requirement of knowing most characters alone will probably filter out a large number of people.
Because in this world, knowledge is expensive.
A book of dozens of pages bound in parchment usually costs several silver coins!
It is very good for ordinary people to be able to ensure three meals a day for their family. Where can they find extra energy and money to study and buy books?
After Luo Ning and Chahar took the servants down, he began to think about the questions he would ask the interviewees tomorrow. After all, if there were many applicants, he would still need to screen them.
After a while, Luo Ning finalized the question, then went to the window and cast the Qingfeng spell toward the outside.
This spell was not difficult to learn as beginner magic for a wind magician. In addition, Ronin's attribute affinity had reached a super level. After learning it that night, he was soon able to cast it with 100% success.
The main reason he continued to practice was to improve his proficiency and stability in using his mental power to depict spell patterns, which was in preparation for making spell scrolls later.
Magician Pedro said that making a spell scroll requires the magician's mental strength and mana output to be extremely stable in order to carve spell patterns on the monster's skin.
If this condition is not met, it is impossible to make a spell scroll, just as Pedro tried many times, but in the end, it was a waste.
Luo Ning obviously meets this condition.
His mental strength and magic power are very stable, so making spell scrolls in the future should not be a problem. He also asked Elrond privately, and the other party seemed to meet this condition.
That is to say, in the future, Shanlin Town will have two magicians who can make spell scrolls.
Luo Ning thought about it seriously. If Shanlin Town didn't have any special products, he could sell spell scrolls as resources.
Furthermore, once their magician level reaches a higher level and they are able to create powerful spell scrolls, they can then use them as a strategic resource.
If there is magic that can destroy a city in an instant, and Ronin can make it into a spell scroll, then this scroll is equivalent to a nuclear weapon.
Of course, this was just his fantasy. He had no idea whether there was any magical power that could defy the heavens in this world.
These are all later stories. At the current stage, a second-level healing spell scroll will definitely sell well.
In this way, Roning can also accumulate a certain amount of money.
In addition to the spell scrolls, Roning plans to use his memories of his past life to see if he can develop some industries.
For example, white wine?
People in this world love to drink very much. From the nobles to the ordinary people, everyone has the habit of drinking, and there are many people who are addicted to alcohol.
However, they only drank beer and wine. Such great nobles in the past had never touched liquor, so obviously, there was no liquor.
This gives Roning a very clear market.
However, Luo Ning has never actually tried how to make liquor, and he estimates that it will require a long period of exploration and experimentation.
Fortunately, the theoretical knowledge is already there, and what is lacking is just practical experience. Luo Ning is very confident in himself.
