Duke of Herrington

Chapter 84 Food and lodging included!

Open the first page of the contract and only read half of it!Francis put on the mask of pain, as if the owner of some mysterious pawn shop heard the outrageous price!

He covered his head and looked at Ted in front of him, and confirmed to him again and again: "You want to discuss business with us? But isn't this a bit too much?"

Through the conversation with the dragons, Ted can be considered to have discovered one of their bad habits, that is, not looking forward to the future.
When they saw the condition of having the dragon work, they thought Ted was going to rack his brains and find ways to squeeze them!

Even if the next page fully explained the rewards, they would not move their fingers to turn back.
Ted rolled his eyes, let out a long breath, pointed to the document and made a gesture of please, indicating that there is more behind: "Where am I going too far? I am talking about business, not signing a slave clause with you! There is a job demand on the next page , and a complete list of rewards! Please read it carefully before drawing conclusions! Is that okay?"

Ted was depressed, and continued to explain in a slightly reproachful tone: "This is a big event about our northern factory. It is a big event! It is also a key step to fulfill the promise. How can you squeeze the employees?"

"Huh? There's still a reward for this? Let me see." Francis raised the document in doubt, and glanced at the thickness of the document.

Then, according to what Ted said, he flipped through the book step by step.
After seeing the reward, the painful mask on Francis' face was finally taken off, replaced by joy
"Why didn't you say it earlier, so there is still a reward."

"Shouldn't this be posting the work tasks first, and then writing the rewards later?" Ted wanted to cry without tears, and looked at Francis with wide-eyed doubts, like the explosive and intelligent black brother on a certain music, no Keep stretching out your hands to signal, pointing to the reward page!
"Uh" Francis stretched out his nails and gently scratched his chin, recalling the small intelligent creatures he had come into contact with over the years, and thinking about their past and history.

Half a minute later, he stared at one eye and asked: "Don't you small intelligent creatures love to exploit their own kind? You use various methods, such as burning and flooding, to torture your own kind and force them to work? Carrying out mass murder on trumped-up charges?"

"Then you say now that there is still a reward, which itself is a suspicious thing"

The more Ted listened, the more he felt that something was wrong, and he started to feel cold behind him. He subconsciously responded with a frightened expression: "No. Who did you listen to?"

He heard from Lilia that Francis in front of him had never seen a human being
"Isn't this normal? The small intelligent creatures I know all look like this, so I guess you humans are similar."

Ted stroked his non-existent beard, not knowing how to answer.

Because what Francis said was right, in the period of human feudal society, these were bad habits. It did happen, and his doubts were not unreasonable.

But Ted still wants to fight: "Well, at least I'm not like this. I'm very kind!"

"Kindness?" Francis paused, looked at Ted's serious face, shook his head, and said in a strange way: "Well, you came to make peace with me with such a dangerous, even destructive weapon? You're so kind!"

"I'm helpless! If I don't show it, can you talk to me properly?"

"Uh" Francis looked up at Ted, then lowered his head guiltily and continued to look at the contract.
He didn't refute this point, because what Ted said was not unreasonable. Before he took out the black box, he always talked with a superior attitude.

According to the work contract, according to the introduction, the size of these factory parts is like human beings and Lego blocks, and the weight and size are completely acceptable.

What's more, the giant dragon can also adjust the size of its body at will according to its own mind, from a human body to a giant volume of nearly a kilometer from the head to the tail, as long as the magic power is sufficient, it can be changed at will.

"So, the task is to let us take these bottles and cans, help you install them, and act as a 'crane' by the way, so that we can get three meals a day!? Can you still eat enough? Even wages?"

If you don't look carefully, you don't know. After Francis carefully read all the remuneration terms, he was completely stunned.

Just looking at such a contract, you can feel incredible!

Working eight hours a day?There are weekends and weekends every week. If you encounter any holidays, can you still take paid vacations?There is supper for overtime work, and overtime pay!
Is this work?This TM is heaven!What kind of fairy leader must be able to propose this kind of treatment?However, the giant dragons don't care about the things that humans care about. What they care about is three meals a day, and they can still eat enough. This is the most important thing.

Francis thought that Ted's contract was wrong, so he pointed to this one and confirmed to Ted: "Are you sure you can get these? Three meals a day? Even tens of millions of years ago, food was abundant and dinosaurs were in large quantities. During the survival period, we only eat twice a day!"

"Of course it can be taken out! So I say that I am a kind human being, it is not too much! As for why we have enough food, you will soon know!" Ted stretched out his hand, motioning them to continue to turn backwards.

The following documents are all notes, and the duration of the contract, nothing special
Until turning to the last page, Francis found several articles at the bottom.
While reading the terms, he expressed his thoughts: "This article prohibits harming intelligent creatures without reason. There is nothing wrong with this article, and we are not murderers."

"The second one only needs 6 giant dragons as employees? Sigh. This issue needs to be discussed."

Francis closed the document, clasped his hands, looked at Ted in front of him, and said casually, "Have you chosen?"

Ted nodded, took Lilia's little hand, and licked it in front of Francis: "Of course there is a candidate, and that is Lilia, and her family~"

Upon hearing about the work, Lilia picked up the pain mask that grandpa had just dropped, and said coquettishly with a delicate look: "But my dear, I don't really want to work, I just want to eat and sleep"

Ted would not refuse the coquettishness from his wife: "Of course it's okay, you just need to eat more every meal and excrete more metal!"

"In this case, I can still drip!" With her husband's permission, Lilia stretched proudly, leaned on Ted and yawned: "You guys talk first, and call me when you finish~"

Ted pushed back Lilia's hair, gently pinched her face, and whispered in her ear: "Okay~"

The fairy-like touch came out, and he finally knew what it was like to be "smooth as ice" in the advertisement!It would be great if all the girls' faces were like this! ?
"Ahem!" Zooey coughed twice, signaling Ted to pay attention to the impact.

This sound also brought the conversation back to the topic.

Ted pointed to the cave behind Lilia's parents: "As you can see, Lilia has 4 immediate family members. Although they were not very friendly to me just now, they are my future parents and brothers. I will definitely take care of them , and flatter them by the way, let them accept me from the bottom of their hearts!"

Francis remembered the situation in Lilia's parents' house, except for Lilia, there were only four dragons.

Afterwards, he tightened his grip on the contract in his hand, and asked cautiously, "Then there are still two places left, do you have any candidates?"

Ted shook his head. After careful consideration, he expressed his thoughts: "It's better to be obedient, not that kind of unruly dragon."

"My cousin!" Lilia suddenly opened half of her eyes and proposed a candidate who could be considered.

"and many more!"

At this moment, Francis seemed to be enlightened. He turned his head to look at his wife Zoe, and nodded solemnly.

The same is true for Zoe, who has already made a decision in her heart!
Immediately afterwards, Francis put the contract in his pocket, his expression and demeanor resembled Zhuang Qiang who wanted to be the security captain!

"I can do this job too. Do you think I can do it? I eat as much as them, do as much work as them, and I have great magic power! I can protect you! That little box of yours is terrible. Take it!" It will definitely not work to protect everyone! The lower limit is too high!"

"Look at me and my wife again. The lower limit is low and the upper limit is high. Not only can we work, but we can also play! How about it? Think about it?"

These words made Ted's brain cells not enough. I didn't expect that the sentence "orcs will never be slaves unless they have food and shelter" is true. As long as they have enough food and money, they are considered giants. Dragons will also come to work for you.

"This..." Even though the two people in front of him are so sincere, Ted is still a little worried.

After all, these two people are the patriarchs of the Ice Dragon Clan. They have never been controlled. Compared with other dragons, they are definitely not easy to control.

"You are too powerful, if you fight, I guess no one can stop you except me"

When he heard that the food in his mouth was about to go away, Francis panicked, and he took another step back: "How about you give us less food, so that we only have the energy to work and have no energy to fight?"

"Then how?" Ted is not a capitalist and will not exploit employees, so he will definitely not agree to this one!
After thinking about it, Ted saw the sincerity of the two dragons, and took a step back himself.

"Well, otherwise, I can work anyway. The task of the dragons is to build a factory. I will go to the site with the technicians to direct. I will work with you. If something is wrong, I will stop it in time. "

"No problem, then these two places... belong to me and my wife?"

"Of course, that's it!"

This contract is only used for testing in the first phase, because it is not only the factory that is engaged in infrastructure construction, but also the railway and northern reconstruction projects, as well as other future work, all need the help of the dragons!
In terms of laying rails, their efficiency is much faster than humans, and they can effectively reduce injuries caused by accidents~
According to Ted's plan, the track from the coal plant to Valentine can be built in about a month.

"Ahem. Then, wish us a happy cooperation?"

"Happy cooperation!" Ted smiled and stood up to shake hands with Francis!

At this moment, Francis decided to let go of his useless pride and have a good conversation with this human. If this cooperation can really relieve the current embarrassing situation of the dragons, wouldn't lowering their posture be a kind of civilization progress?
Currently, Ted can afford 10 dragons, but only needs six to work for him.

However, this is just the beginning, it will get better and better in the future, and it will give hope to the sleeping dragons!
"I'll come to you with Lilia when I'm ready in a few days, how about it?"

"no problem!"
