Volume 5 Chapter 161 - Just like the past Banta City (1/2)
It wasn’t everyone who was like the people of the army headquarters who acted like they were eating a bitter fruit in cooperating with the Frestech Chamber of Commerce.
At least a large part of the people in the Sack Kingdom welcomed the Frestech Chamber of Commerce.
After the Frestech Chamber of Commerce set up their service center in Tucklin Town, it allowed the people of the Sack Kingdom to purchase the best quality Frestech Brand household magic machines. They could also obtain the rumoured most perfect post sale service that people claimed was as comfortable as taking a bath.
This was a service that was hard to get from other companies.
For the people of Tucklin Town, the arrival of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce was something worth celebrating.
In the welcoming ceremony major Puyo held on behalf of Tucklin Town to welcome the caravan from the Lampuri Kingdom, even if the Frestech Chamber of Commerce wasn’t the leader of this caravan, whether it was mayor Puyo or chief Alvin, they always gave the most important introduction to the Frestech Chamber of Commerce.
The reason was very simple, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce not only built a service center in Tucklin Town, they even chose a place outside of Tucklin Town to build a household magic machine production base.
According to the plan, the production base would cover fifty thousand square meters. Right now they were building a Magic Fan factory, a Magic Air Conditioner factory, a Magic Refrigerator factory, and a Magic Lamp factory.
Like this, these Frestech Brand household magic machines would be produced locally in the Sack Kingdom. It could bypass the tariffs of the Sack Kingdom which would lower their prices, making it more convenient for people to buy.
But what the people of Tucklin Town cared about was not this, but rather the jobs that the production base brought.
According to the plan the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s chairman Xu Yi disclosed at the welcoming ceremony, the production base would recruit at least five thousand local workers once it was finished being built.
Five thousand!
All the people in Tucklin Town added up together was less than three thousand people.
The first four factories of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce could take in everyone in Tucklin Town and it still wasn’t enough.
This not only meant that the people of Tucklin Town didn’t need to worry about work, even the surrounding people would benefit.
This was working for the Frestech Chamber of Commerce.
It had to be known that in the surrounding countries, working for the Frestech Chamber of Commerce was a dream for almost everyone.
Although the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s wages weren’t the highest, all the benefits that the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s workers received were far from what the other companies could compare to.
For the companies in the Sack Kingdom, they simply couldn’t even hold the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s shoes!
When this news spread, the area around Tucklin Town stirred. There were countless people that came to Tucklin Town, expressing their desire to work for the Frestech Chamber of Commerce at their service center.
But the reply they received was that they needed to wait until the first Magic Fan factory was built, then they would announce that they would be recruiting people and they hoped that everyone wouldn’t be too anxious.
Of course, people didn’t need to be too disappointed.
Because there was some time before the Frestech Chamber of Commerce started recruiting people, but the other companies that came with them were already recruiting.
The fastest was the Amrit Chamber of Commerce.
This time all the large companies of the Lampuri Kingdom came with the caravan. The Frestech Chamber of Commerce was working with the Lampuri Kingdom, so they weren’t an exception.
Among these companies, the most important one for the Sack Kingdom was the Amrit Chamber of Commerce.
According to the agreement, the Amrit Chamber of Commerce would help the Sack Kingdom build their roads. The first one would connect to Palermo Town in the Lampuri Kingdom’s northern province which was the closest town to the border, then it would pass through the Muerto Mountains to Tucklin Town before finally connecting to the Sack Kingdom’s capital of Nordham City.
Once this road was complete, it would be the first time the Lampuri Kingdom and the Sack Kingdom would be connected. Whether it was symbolic meaning or practical meaning, it was all important.
So this road was very important to the Sack Kingdom. Not only would chief Alvin be with chairman Cruise the entire way, the Sack Kingdom had sent several related personnel to help, guaranteeing that this road could be completed smoothly.
Of course, there would be a large number of workers needed to complete this road. Even if the Amrit Chamber of Commerce brought many skilled workers, the simple work would depend on the local Sack Kingdom workers that they would recruit.
