Noble Husband At the Door (Antonio) novel Chapter 5231

Samuel first went outside the city to patrol, and then returned to the main entrance to wait for the workers to arrive.

Luo Jin was very efficient. Although an hour had passed, it only took him about 15 minutes to gather 100 people.

To be honest, it was not a sudden surge of wealth for 100 people to get a piece of gold brick, but basically, each of them earned several years or even decades' salary on average.

Moreover, these workers were in high spirits to work for the famous master.

"Everyone, who is the foreman?" Samuel asked.

At that moment, a man stood out. He was roughly fifty years old.

Samuel handed him a drawing. "Will the project be completed in one night according to the drawing?"

"Sir, do... does City Lord Luo agree to this?" the foreman asked in confusion.

Luo Jin nodded. "As Mr. Hannigan’s command."

"But one night is too short." The foreman continued to frown. "Unless we send more men."

"If there are too many people, the noise is too big. A hundred people is already the limit, but I can add money. As long as you can complete the construction work I requested within the agreed time, that gold brick is just a deposit. I will give you another ten more when it is done, but if you can't complete the construction work, then this gold brick is all your salary, understand?"

This huge temptation almost stunned the foreman and a group of workers.

After all, the price had increased by more than ten times in an instant, which was equivalent to the number that many people might have to work hard for half a lifetime or even a lifetime to earn. How could they not be excited?

Before the foreman could speak, many of the workers had already spoken up.

"Mr. Hannigan, don't worry. Just one night. At worst, I'll fight to the death tonight."

"That's right. Even if I'm exhausted, it'll only take one night. I'll exchange a night for a lifetime. I must handle it."

Samuel nodded. "I know, but sometimes, you should believe in miracles and even more so, in things that are impossible. Sometimes, the more impossible it is, the more it will affect the outcome of the battle."

"That's true, but everything has to be returned to the facts. I'm just worried that we won't be able to launch a surprise attack and will be defeated by them. That would be too much of a pity."

Samuel smiled and said, "Coincidentally, I like to do these things that seem to be determined to lose. City Lord Luo, how about we make a bet?"

"Mr. Hannigan, are you betting on the workers?"

"That's right. I bet that they will become the most crucial ones in the real sense."

"Well, then I bet that they may drag down your final battle. Not to mention whether the workers can complete it on time, even if they succeed, I don't think these children's things can help you, let alone stop the tide of attacks brought by the special envoy."

"Okay, we'll know when dawn comes."

"Okay, Mr. Hannigan, what do you want to bet on?"
