Hearthstone Farm Lord

Chapter 419 Preparation before the war (2) (Thanks to watercold for the February vote)

The hall was noisy, thirty or forty blacksmiths and nearly a hundred blacksmith apprentices were forcibly brought into the auction house by the forces of the Eagle family.

But they didn't know what the Eagle family was going to do, so everyone looked terrified.

Sean, Windsor, and Earl Powell walked into the auction house hall together.

Looking at the panicked crowd, Sean waved to them: "Hi everyone!"

The blacksmiths present looked at each other in blank dismay. Opposite him was only a young man in aristocratic attire. Although he had an extraordinary bearing, they had never seen him before.

But the blacksmiths didn't dare to mess around. Although they didn't know this young man, they still knew Earl Powell behind him.

Earl Powell still has to stand behind the young man, which shows that this young man must be a big shot.

Some blacksmiths in the crowd were well-informed. Based on what they saw, a blacksmith quickly figured out who Sean was: "This nobleman should be His Highness Xiao En, who has become famous recently, right?"

Sean smiled and nodded: "Yes, I am the lord of River Beach Town, Sean Violet."

"It turned out to be Your Highness Sean!"

The blacksmiths immediately understood who was the master who called them this time, and they all respectfully saluted Xiao En:
"It turned out to be His Highness Xiao En! No wonder he has such an extraordinary bearing!"

"I've often heard His Highness Xiao En's name recently. The Battle of Thorn Ridge even saw the fall of a sky-level powerhouse. It is definitely a big event that shocked the whole country!"

"Two days ago, I heard from my apprentice that His Royal Highness Sean came to our Port of Kapoor. I didn't take it to heart at the time. I didn't expect to see the Lord today!"

"His Royal Highness Sean, you called us over, is there anything important?"

Sean pressed his hand and motioned for everyone to be quiet.

After the blacksmiths in the hall gradually quieted down, Sean asked Windsor to amplify his voice with grudge, and said to everyone:

"Hi everyone, I'm Sean Violet. Everyone's time is precious, so I won't waste my time.

I called everyone here this time because there was a major crisis in Kapoor Port, and a special equipment needed to be mass-produced to deal with it, so I asked Powell to bring everyone here.The methods of some guards may be a bit rough, I hope everyone will forgive me! "

"What crisis? Can you tell us? Your Highness Sean." The blacksmiths asked with concern.

Kapur Port is the hometown of most blacksmiths. When they heard that their hometown was in crisis, many people had worries on their faces.

Sean thought for a while, and then smiled: "It's okay to talk about it, we have received reliable information. Rumiest's Anjou Southern Navy has joined forces with the pirates on Rhodes Island, and is preparing to jointly attack Kapoor." Port. Kapoor Port has encountered a major crisis that has not happened in a century!"

Xiao En didn't want to tell these blacksmiths about "the Anjou Navy is coming", he just perfunctorily made them a special equipment to keep them, so as to prevent them from leaking the matter.

But after thinking about it, it seems that I can't hide it for too long.

After three to five days at the most, the blacksmiths will definitely get the truth of the matter. At that time, they will feel that they have been deceived, and the work efficiency and the quality of the output products will be greatly reduced, so the loss outweighs the gain.

So Sean simply told the truth.

Hearing Xiao En's words, the blacksmiths and apprentices in the auction house hall immediately panicked:
"My God, how could this be!"

"Aren't the pirates of Rhode Island on our side?"

"It's over, it's over, Kapoor Port is about to end, how can an enemy fleet three times its size fight?"

"Tonight, I'll pack up my valuables and run away!"

"Everyone, don't jump to conclusions, and don't be afraid." Sean pressed his hand to signal everyone to be quiet:
"This time, I summoned everyone to create a special weapon to turn defeat into victory. Even if I don't win, I can guarantee that everyone's lives and properties will not be lost, and—"

Sean elongated his voice at the end of his words: "Those who are willing to stay and make weapons, I can give you a salary of 15 gold coins per month during this period, and I will also give you a benefit beyond imagination!"

"Welfare, what kind of welfare?" the blacksmiths asked one after another.

Of course, some blacksmiths scolded Sean for being stingy in their hearts. They risked their lives to stay here. Shouldn't they be paid 30 gold coins or even 50 gold coins a month?Just 15 gold coins?
This is not much different from what they usually earn.

Sean knew what the blacksmiths were thinking from the faint dissatisfaction they showed, and said with a smile, "I know some people must think that 15 gold coins are too little, right?"

The blacksmiths didn't answer, it was a tacit consent.

Sean continued to laugh and said: "That's because the benefit I give you is not too high. You can't even buy it for 100 gold coins!"

Sean beckoned to Bart Stormpike and the three who were standing on the side, and the three of them walked over together after a little hesitation.

Sean introduced to the blacksmiths present:

"This is Bart Stormpike, the master blacksmith of the Dwarf Kingdom. The two behind him are named Lucy and Hansen, and they are also master blacksmiths. Their level is no less than that of Stormpike."

Bart Stormpike hurriedly shook his hand when he heard the words: "Not at all, I am far behind the two masters, their forging level is much higher than mine!"

The blacksmiths all exclaimed after hearing the name of Bart Stormpike, this is a famous master throughout the country!
There is no master-level blacksmith in Kapoor Port, and the highest-level blacksmith is only at the level of a senior blacksmith.Now three master blacksmiths suddenly appeared in front of them, making them a little at a loss.

Of course, there are some blacksmiths in the crowd who don't believe it. After all, what they say is unfounded. What if these three masters are fake?

Earl Powell saw the doubts of these people, coughed twice and said: "I dare to use the reputation of the Eagle family as a guarantee, these three are genuine master blacksmiths, and Master Bart Stormpike is also at the forging level in Wellness The highest blacksmith, there is no doubt about that."

After hearing Earl Powell's words, the blacksmiths in the hall no longer had any doubts and became excited one by one. They wanted to immediately ask the three masters for advice on difficult problems encountered in forging.

Sean also said at the right time: "If you are willing to stay, you will get free guidance from three masters this month. This kind of opportunity is priceless. You usually spend 100, no, 1000 gold coins can't buy it!

Of course, if someone still doesn't want to cooperate with us, we won't force it, and you can leave at any time.But before leaving, a non-disclosure agreement must be signed. "

After Sean finished speaking, he gave Powell a look, and Powell nodded understandingly.

If there are blacksmiths who are still unwilling to cooperate and stay, Sean will ask Powell to temporarily imprison them and let them leave after the war begins.

This was done mainly to prevent leaks of secrets from some of the blacksmiths.
