"This, such a job seems to be more suitable for Mr. Robson. After all, he is a businessman himself, and he knows the operating rules of this more clearly than me!" As he spoke, Andy shook his head in distress: "I really don't know the job! Why don't I find Mr. Robson for you!"

Scott hurriedly waved his hand and stopped him: "You may not know the importance of river transportation, right? I can tell you the truth that the importance of canal trade is directly related to the rise and fall of the Norfolk region, so I don't want any private person to interfere in this kind of big event. Do you understand what I mean now?"

For Scott, although the canals in the Norfolk area are used for public use, this does not mean that the canals in Norfolk have become public property, and it does not mean that everyone can get involved in the interests here at will. After all, this interest is too great. If you let private people intervene at will, it will be afraid that it will cause riots in minutes, so it is better to have the exclusive monopoly of the Earl's Mansion.

Andy was stunned at first, then quickly woke up: "I understand, please don't worry, I will do this well!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Andy hugged his head in great distress: "But I really don't know what to do."

Patting his shoulder Scott smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll give you some advice from behind recently until you can fully perform the job!"

After hearing this, Andy was immediately excited: "Please give me instructions."

"You can do this first..." Scott told him for a while while pulling Andy.

…………

About a day later, everyone suddenly discovered that the most obvious location in the streets and alleys of Norfolk were posted with documents from the Earl's Mansion, and they all came forward to take a look.

"Brother, what is it written on it?"

"Oh, I'll read it to you. The Earl's Mansion is now recruiting the following personnel: experienced sailors, rowing helmsmen, accountants who can settle accounts, smart guys, and loaders with strong strength. As long as you are healthy and have no bad records, you can go to the Earl's Mansion to register and wait for the assessment! The Earl will pay ten pounds as basic remuneration every month, and will also consider adding money according to the situation. Oh, by the way, food and accommodation..."

"So good! You can also care about food and accommodation!"

"That's not! After all, it's a recruitment for the Earl's Mansion, so the conditions are naturally the best! If you can join the Earl's men to do things, it would be a very glorious thing! Oh, by the way, aren't you good at settle the score? You can sign up at the Earl's Mansion quickly!"

"Will the Earl want me? After all, I came from the Cambridge area and was not a local citizen of the Norfolk area!"

"Why do you think of your former region? As long as you stay in Norfolk at this moment and are willing to contribute to the development of Norfolk, the Earl will receive you. Go and give it a try."

…………

In just two days, the news about the recruitment of personnel in the Earl's Mansion had swept across the Norfolk area like a storm.

In an instant, all the residents who met the conditions went to the Earl's Suit to sign up, including many unemployed refugees who came from the Cambridge area.

Looking at the crowd of people, the soldiers of the Earl's Mansion had a headache: "Everyone is lined up! Don't be crowded, otherwise you will be disqualified from registering."

After several consecutive days of screening, nearly a thousand people who met the work requirements were transferred out.

The list was then delivered to Scott.

"The people like the Count meet the requirements. The list is here, you can take a look!" Andy said, and handed the list to Scott with both hands.

After taking a casual glance, Scott returned the list to Andy: "Okay, let's do it like this. The next thing is to divide the work of these people. Some are responsible for collecting money, some are responsible for loading and unloading, and some are responsible for driving the ship. In short, their division of labor must be clear, so there must be no chaos!"

"Yes, Earl!" Andy nodded quickly and agreed: "By the way, Earl, there have been many refugees pouring in from the Cambridge area. Although these refugees have been arranged to live in, most of them still have no jobs, so what do they do to arrange them?"

Scott waved his hand and said, "What else can I do? Let them dig canals! Anyway, there are a lot of people in digging the canal! Of course, if some people are unwilling to dig canals, then let them go fishing overseas with Simon! If they don't want to do these two jobs, then let them participate in military training, otherwise, there is no way to arrange work for them!"

"Yes, count, I understand, then I'll make some arrangements now!" Andy agreed and turned around and left.

After seeing Andy off, Scott yawned, then stretched and prepared to go out for a walk.

At this time, the attendant hurriedly ran in: "Earl, there are another group of merchants outside the door who want to ask to see you!"

"Oh? Then let them come in!" Scott was excited when he heard that another merchant was coming. After all, in this era, merchants mean money, so now that money comes to his door, how can he refuse it?

In a short while, the attendant led a dozen merchants in and walked in.

"Earl!" When these merchants saw Scott, they hurriedly bowed and saluted.

Scott said kindly: "No gift! You have to be polite!"

While speaking, Scott looked at the merchants carefully: "I heard from you just spoke, you don't seem to be from the Kingdom of England!"

"Yes, Earl! We are from the Netherlands!" a merchant quickly replied.

When Scott heard that it was a businessman from the Netherlands, he felt a little disappointed. Why not come to the merchants from other parts of the Kingdom of England? In this way, he could use the Norfolk Canal to charge a large amount of level fees.

Even though he was unhappy, he still couldn't show it at all, so Scott still greeted them with a charming smile: "O! The Netherlands, I don't know what you are doing in my Norfolk?"

A businessman quickly replied: "We want to buy herring from the Earl!"

As soon as he heard the answer from the Dutch merchant, Scott pretended to know nothing and said, "You have a lot of herring resources in the Netherlands. Why do you have to come to my Norfolk to buy herring?"

Several merchants were slightly stunned: "Don't the Count know the real situation? There are indeed a lot of herring in the Netherlands, but the Duke of Burgundy does not allow fishermen to go fishing in the sea, so there is not much herring in the Netherlands! Recently we heard that the Norfolk region is vigorously catching herring, so we came to meet the Count, hoping that the Count could sell us herring!"
