That doesn't sound right!?
Everyone's first thought after seeing Foster Mining Company's complaint was exactly that.
But thinking about it carefully, what they said didn't seem wrong either.
To complete so many orders, they'd definitely need to hire more people.
What kind of people were willing to be miners?
Mining was dangerous and exhausting, with low social status. Normal people would never be willing to mine, so who would?
Slaves! Vagrants! Those bugs and rats living in the city sewers!
Getting these people together was actually easy, but they could easily backfire.
As long as you could provide employment, let them earn money, let them have something to gain, they were indeed decent labor.
But once you couldn't provide basic survival needs, the force they'd unleash would definitely put you in a very passive position.
Now Foster Mining Company seemed to be in exactly that position.
To complete orders, they'd gathered massive numbers of these people.
