Chapter 949 The Future of Witches
The new "Maleficent" is not a single building, but a residential area covering an area of about 7,000 square meters.
As a key new community under construction, it is not only equipped with artesian water and heating, but the building is also a four-story frame house with mature concrete pouring technology. Its interior divisions are exactly the same as the Witch Building.
In addition, Roland also built a two-story conference hall in the center of the community for the activities of the Sleeping Island witches.
In fact, the welcome banquet was held here the night before the immigrants arrived in Neverwinter, and half a month later, the hall was once again filled with witches.
In full view of everyone, Tilly stepped onto the podium and began to read out the recruitment order from Roland Wimbledon and a new salary system.
"...The current work arrangement is like this. Maleficent can get 30% of the income generated by witches. This money will be used to improve everyone's lives, expand the scale of the curse, and all aspects that will be needed in the future." Five The princess smiled and talked eloquently, "At first glance, it seems that I was exploited by my brother. After all, when we were on Sleeping Island, all the commissions paid by the fjord merchants belonged to us. But in fact, the other party would also take the opportunity to put forward many additional conditions, such as When we buy their food and daily necessities at high prices, we often get them at a discount, but here there are not so many additional conditions.”
"In addition, the 30% given by Roland has exceeded the income of Sleeping Island in terms of amount. In addition, most of the new work content only requires the consumption of magic power, and there is no need to personally venture to the unknown sea, so it is much easier. Compared with the two From the comparison, we can conclude that I am not the one being exploited, and it can even be said that I am taking advantage of my brother."
This sentence caused a low roar of laughter.
"But!" Tilly suddenly raised her voice, "The above has nothing to do with the remuneration I want to talk about. No matter how much remuneration was paid by the fjord merchants before, Maleficent, who lacked everything, could only use it in a coordinated manner, so in the end What was distributed to everyone was only bread, cotton and other uniformly distributed items."
"But this time everyone will get tangible rewards, rather than a series of invisible and intangible numbers. As for how to control them, it is personal freedom. Now, please open the envelopes on your respective desks."
Moriel had long noticed the envelope with the seal of the Tower of Graycastle, but had resisted touching it. Now that she heard Her Highness Tilly's request, she immediately tore the seal open impatiently.
"Is this... the new Gwent card?" Shadow sitting nearby stretched his head.
"You do too, go and see yourself." Moriel turned sideways, blocking the other person's gaze behind her.
"cut."
The envelope contained a piece of paper about the size of a palm. It looked very smooth, but it felt uneven. It could be easily bent without leaving any creases like ordinary paper.
Moriel fell in love with this piece of paper from the first moment she saw it.
That's simply a piece of art.
Although the size is similar to the popular Gwent card in the Witches Union, she does not think that the two are the same thing. Without it, the latter is simply too exquisite. The patterns on it are not only gorgeous, but also extremely complicated, like lines drawn with hair. These textures are not only used to fill the paper surface, but also form a variety of patterns and text.
For example, the front of the piece of paper shows the tower spear emblem, and the back shows a mountain illuminated by the rising sun. Below the pattern are written "Published by the Royal Family of Graycastle" and "Female--0---0---Little--Say---This is a gorgeous dividing line--Let go of that witch 00 novel netizens please remind: long Please pay attention to rest your eyes while reading. Recommended reading for 00 novels: Transformation into Xiangjiang-0--0---Small--Say---This is the gorgeous dividing line---the words "Witches only", the other four corners There are also three tens and a symbol of unknown meaning written on it.
What makes Moriel love it the most is that if you slowly turn the paper, the patterns on the front and back will reflect little bits of gilding under the light, as if the lines are carved out of gold.
"Uh...it doesn't seem to be Gwent," Shadow also discovered the difference. "I remember that the numbers on the cards are all marked on the same side."
"Is this a gift from His Majesty Roland?"
"But Lady Tilly is clearly talking about reward."
"Hmm... yours is the same?" The trajectory on the other side followed.
"It should be the same for everyone."
"What does this symbol mean?"
"I don't know, but I always feel like I've seen it somewhere..."
There were whispers in the hall for a while, and all the witches were attracted by the gorgeous pieces of paper in their hands. It was not until Tilly spoke again that the chatter subsided slightly.
"The things in your hands are called paper money. Just like the literal meaning, it has the function of money. The difference is that this kind of paper money is only issued to witches and can only be used by witches."
"You mean...it's a golden dragon made of paper?" someone asked.
"That's okay to understand, but it can buy some things that golden dragons can't easily buy." Tilly nodded, "For example, the ten-yuan roll in your hands can be exchanged for a complete bottle of Chaos Drink in the castle area, or It’s five servings of strawberry ice cream.”
Molly swallowed uncontrollably.
She still vividly remembered the delicacies she had eaten at the welcome banquet, which were tastes she had never imagined in her life. Especially the latter, with its mellow pink color, soft and cold taste, and sweet and charming smell, it almost brought together all the beautiful words she could think of. Compared with ice cream, the salty fish soup of the fjord islands cannot be called food.
And this beautiful banknote can be exchanged for her unforgettable delicious food, and it's five servings?
Judging from the lively response at the scene, she was definitely not the only witch who was interested in this.
"Of course, the things you can exchange for are not just food, but also things you wear and use in daily life... As long as they are new products manufactured in Neverwinter City, they will be the first to appear in the shops in the castle area." Tilly continued loudly Said, "In short, banknotes are the reward for responding to recruitment - depending on the working hours, the reward each person can get will also change. I must point out that it is not a necessity to maintain life, Even if you don’t work, you can live a life without worries about food and clothing. To be precise, it is an embellishment, or a reward that makes life richer. Therefore, the choice lies with you. Whether you accept the recruitment or not, it is up to you. up to you."
Surprisingly, there was no noisy discussion in the hall. Probably knowing that their leader still had something to say, all the witches focused their attention on Tilly.
"But my sisters, this matter is not just about enjoyment..." Tilly's tone slowed down, "Do you still remember the unfair treatment we suffered after awakening as witches? At that time, everyone probably had Live the same thought - it would be great if there was a place where witches could live with ordinary people."
She paused and said word by word, "So this matter is also related to the future of all sisters - if we want to let more people know about us, this is the best opportunity."
