0697 Dedicate your strength to building the world

In the room, the president of the Gefra Chamber of Commerce looked at Lynch with a gloomy expression. He was a little confused and confused about the current situation.

It stands to reason that Lynch caused them heavy losses. The locals' hatred of Gaevra prevented them from recruiting workers. On the contrary, it was Lynch and other federal businessmen who took advantage of such opportunities to gain a head start in development.

If you were to put yourself in his shoes, he would never give people like him any chance to impact the market with a large number of locally produced goods and imported goods.

It can even kidnap the national spirit of local people by using certain vocabulary and sales methods that repeatedly cross the border on the political fringes.

The president of the Chamber of Commerce is not unfamiliar with this method. For example, they have used the slogan "If you don't buy it, you are not an imperialist", which has been used a long time ago.

But what people never expected was that Lynch did not follow the script. Instead, he took the initiative to help him and help the Gefra people solve the problem. Now there is an additional question, is there something else involved? question.

The president of the Chamber of Commerce was silent. He looked at Lynch carefully. Except for his handsome appearance and young face, he didn't seem to find what he wanted to find.

"What...what do you want to do?", he couldn't help but ask.

He didn't expect Lynch to actually answer this question, it was just a subconscious question when he had no clue.

Lynch smiled naturally and said, "To make money, that's all!"

Unable to figure it out, the president of the Chamber of Commerce pursed his lips and said, "We also need to sign a formal contract on this matter.", he further probed.

Lynch would naturally not object, "Yes, this is what it should be."

Seemingly not feeling any trap, the Chamber of Commerce president finally nodded. After all, starting work and getting the chance first were really important.

Although the nobles behind Gefra's capital control them, the capital itself does not completely lose its proper nature just because it is restricted by power.

"As for the number of people, I need to talk to my friends, so let's meet again tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?"

After Lynch answered in the affirmative, he took the initiative to leave. He did not continue to talk about any unnutritious topics. From the standpoints of both parties at this moment, they were still competitors to the point that the word "enemy" could be used to describe their relationship. .

If you don't leave now and continue chatting, it will only be awkward.

Watching Lynch's car drive away through the window, the president of the Chamber of Commerce sat in the study and thought for a while before he picked up the phone and dialed other people's numbers.

After every call was answered, he would tell the other party, "I have a solution to the problem of insufficient workers..."

The next morning, just ten minutes before the scheduled time, everyone was already here.

"This is the most diligent I have ever seen you people!" He was about to solve some problems and maintain his dignity. The president of the Chamber of Commerce was in a pretty good mood at this time, and he made a little joke.

The concept of time of the Gefra people is roughly similar to "as long as you are not late". They rarely arrive early. Sometimes even if they arrive a little early, they will walk around nearby and only keep the appointment when the time is close.

But today, these people made an exception.

"Your Excellency, President, if you can omit the content that we don't like, maybe it will be more meaningful to us!" Someone immediately retorted, and now everyone was very impatient.

The president of the Chamber of Commerce also knows that appropriate jokes are jokes, and inappropriate jokes are harmful.

He cleared his throat and said in a slightly magnetic voice, "I talked with Lynch yesterday and he was willing to fill our employment gap."

"Your Excellency, President, is the 'Lin Qi' you are talking about the one I know?" Someone immediately raised doubts about Lin Qi.

The president nodded, "It's the one you know, the federal businessman, Lynch."

"He found me last night and talked to me. He is willing to find enough workers for us, and the wages will be paid on a daily basis, at three yuan a day."

Three dollars of furla can now be exchanged for about five federal soles. This salary may not seem low, but it is actually not high.

Whether it is the local salary standard in Gefra or the salary under the federal minimum hourly wage law, it is actually much higher than the salary standard they gave, so they are not at a loss, at least compared to the local salary. Some profit margins.

More importantly, with these workers, they can start work immediately.

Someone also expressed their opinion, "Your Excellency, President, could this be a conspiracy?" He continued to explain, "We all know that Lynch is not a good person. It is said that he forced many people to death, including Whether our current situation is within his calculations is unknown."

"Being on both sides of the competition, he suddenly offered to solve our problems, and I don't think he was that kind."

"Compared to market occupation in Zhulis and other areas, I don't think he can make more money by exploiting workers. Is this a new trap?"

People started talking a lot, and most people thought it was possible that Lynch's previous record was so brilliant that no one dared to guarantee it, so it must be safe.

"He is willing to sign a contract with us. Gentlemen, this is not the mainland, it is an imperial special zone. Everything here operates in accordance with international rules." The president of the Chamber of Commerce took out the half-smoked pure color, opened the lid, and took it out , and immediately someone came to hold a blowtorch for him.

He took two puffs and exhaled a thick but good-smelling smoke, and then said slowly, "We must also adapt to this trend, this change, and write down everything we think may be problematic. It’s in the contract.”

"As long as we act in accordance with the contract, we don't have to be afraid that Lynch will come up with any dirty tricks to deceive us. After all, we have signed the contract."

"Then the Governor will have a reason to intervene, so we can relax..."

Everyone quickly came to a consensus and discussed a rough labor gap of 40,000 people.

In fact, there were less than 40,000 people, but in order to avoid some mistakes, they increased this number to 40,000 people, which left an extra two to three thousand people that could be flexibly mobilized.

When they told Lynch the number, he was very happy.

He only needs to give the Nagaril people less than two dollars of federal sole, and then the remaining two dollars will be profit.

Forty thousand people, a profit of almost 100,000 yuan a day. This is just a city in Zhulis. If cities in all regions of Amelia use a large number of his laborers, these laborers can bring him millions of profits every day. !

Even if it is impossible to use his labor force everywhere, and the scale is not as big as here, he believes that as the scale of the industry upgrades, the labor gap will only increase.

Gefra's local resources have been almost fully developed, and the crowded island country is filled with nobles and capital that have nowhere to live. This is why the emperor insists on clinging to Amelia.

They need to transform from an island nation to a land nation.

With the initial resumption of production and construction completed, the development speed of Amelia will only get faster and faster. By then, more and more things will be transferred here from the mainland, including light industry, heavy industry, processing industry, manufacturing industry...

These enterprises require a large number of people. Compared with the current particularly sensitive "racial nerves", the Gefra people will gradually learn to compromise for the sake of stability.

They will not continue to irritate the nerves of the local people, but some jobs are not so safe. Under the widely varying wage standards, Nagaril works hard without complaint, and it doesn't matter if he can be beaten, scolded, or even die occasionally.

In this urgent and high-intensity development process, labor is a consumable.

The locals are not so expendable and can easily cause opposition and even unrest. The only choice they can make is to cooperate with Lynch, a long-term cooperation!

The gap will only get bigger in the future, and will definitely not get smaller.

In order to make his business better and better, Lynch will definitely set up a factory in Amelia with the attitude of opening a nursing home...

Another day later, the two parties signed the "Labor Employment Contract" under the supervision and witness of the city hall. Facing many reporters, the mayor said that the resumption of work will soon come, and at the same time, a new round of urban construction will also begin. will be put on the agenda.

"Don't crowd, obey the order!" At the port of Nagalir, some policemen held batons to maintain order outside the crowd. Occasionally, anyone running around would be beaten and driven away by them with batons.

The order at the scene was good. At least these Nagarilese, who had received basic literacy education and were somewhat more advanced than before, did not mess around.

They were holding a "Passport for Working Abroad" in their hands and carrying a change of clothes on their backs and were preparing to board the ship.

In order to save transportation costs, Lynch asked the shipping company here to transport people there according to the way of transporting goods.

It's not a passenger ship. Passenger ships can't transport so many people, and the cost is higher. On the contrary, a freighter is more suitable.

It is only a three-day journey from Nagaril to Amelia. During this process, people will be loaded into containers. Of course, the containers will have openings. The shipping company does not intend to make cans.

There was food, drink, ventilation, and a doctor on board, so transportation costs were suddenly reduced.

At this time, there were more people outside the dock. Since Lynch's "Federal Labor Service" company began to send workers abroad, the local society in Nagaril was detonated by this news.

The reason is very simple. Each person who works abroad can get one dollar and seventy-five cents per day, which is basically the same as the salary of a second-level employee. In addition, there is also a meal subsidy of twenty-five cents, which is almost equal to two cents per person per day. Dollars!

God, when did such a lucrative job appear in Nagaril?

Almost all locals who have passed the literacy class have started to sign up, but there are still many people who cannot participate. They are begging outside in the hope of getting in.

For them, it is not a black hole leading to the unknown, but a bright future!
