Lin Mo strode into the Recruitment Hall.
Lin Shi Qi was reviewing documents at the desk. Seeing him enter, he hurriedly rose to greet him and cupped his hands in salute. "Lord!"
Lin Mo nodded, his gaze sweeping across the hall. More than a dozen people were scattered throughout the Front Courtyard, men and women, young and old.
"Quite a few people came today."
Lin Shi Qi opened the register in his hands and nodded with a smile.
"Reporting to Lord, seventeen people arrived this morning.
Two Blacksmiths, five Carpenters, plus a veterinarian, a horse breeder, someone who can brew wine, and someone who can make tofu...
They're all of good quality. I've already questioned them briefly—they're all honest and dependable people."
Lin Mo nodded in satisfaction, then walked over to the bluestone stele and pressed his hand against it.

"Begin the free Random Recruitment."
As soon as his words fell, the faint golden light on the bluestone stele suddenly flared up, growing brighter and more intense.
Boom!
A dull roar erupted from the side hall.
A figure slowly emerged from the rear courtyard.
He was a man in his early thirties, dressed in a half-worn gray robe. His face was thin, his cheekbones high, and a pair of triangular eyes gleamed with shrewdness.
He carried a cloth bag in his hand. The four characters "Superior Tea Leaves" printed on it had already been worn nearly illegible.
