Mediterranean Hegemony Road

Epidemic prevention work, as the name implies, is still based on prevention, and the specific measures are essentially the same as those of later generations, such as: improving personal hygiene, organizing disinfection, prohibiting drinking raw water, killing insects...

In addition to these daily epidemic prevention work, a new process has been added - the isolation room. Once cold symptoms occur, they will be sent to isolation to strictly prevent the spread of the virus.

In order to cooperate with the national epidemic prevention work, Ferdinand also ordered the whole country to carry out the second-level martial law, which is second only to the martial law during the war.

If you want to travel across cities, you must report to the local health department, and check to make sure that you are healthy before you can pass freely. Stations, ports, schools and other places with high traffic are now full of testing points.

Sergey was born in the small town of Bankya, 17 kilometers west of Sofia. It belongs to a small mountain town in the capital city of Sofia. It is located on the northern slope of Liulin Mountain at an altitude of 630 meters.

Backed by the mountains and the mountains, Sergey opened a small grocery store in Sofia, started to buy and sell mountain goods, and became a businessman.

Oh, he's not quite bourgeois, at most a self-employed, the clerks are his wife and three sons and two daughters.

Thanks to the good economic development in Bulgaria recently, his business can be done well, after all expenses, it is a small surplus!

But when the epidemic came, he was in big trouble. It was no longer possible to enter and leave Sofia every day. For the sake of safety, the government has restricted the flow of people in the city. Now he only has the opportunity to enter and leave freely once a week. It depends on on the peculiarities of his profession.

If that's the case, then that's fine. His family has a lot of mouths, so he takes turns to send teams, and it doesn't matter if he enters the city for delivery every other day!

But the problem is that the epidemic prevention personnel considered that wild animals may be carriers of the virus, and then the prey he received could no longer be sold. Of course, even if it could be sold, it could not be sold now!

Although there are many foodies in Bulgaria,

But everyone cherishes their lives even more. The government is making great efforts to prevent the epidemic. Who dares to underestimate it?

Sergey looked at the newspaper and complained helplessly: This has been going on for more than a month. When will the epidemic end?

The old hunter Karma asked jokingly, Do you still accept Sergey's prey today?

Sergey said angrily: You are a big bastard! I didn't see that there are so many hanging in our yard? We can't sell it, but we can't eat it, and it's a pity to lose it!

Karma smiled slightly and said, What's the hurry, wait for the epidemic to pass, and then sell it slowly! Do you think I still go hunting as usual?

Sergey sneered and said, You are a person who can't live without a gun for a day. What does it matter whether the prey can be sold?

Karma laughed and said, You still know me. This is a living habit and can't be changed. Unfortunately, the prey in Liulin Mountain is getting less and less. Maybe I will move soon!

Sergey was stunned for a moment. He and Karma both grew up together. Suddenly, when he heard that he was leaving, his heart suddenly felt a lot empty.

Why? Your family isn't too thin, so you don't need to rely on your son? Sergey asked in confusion

In the European continent, as long as they can live independently, parents will not live with their children, they think it is dependent on others.

Although Karma is a hunter, his main income is still farming. In this small town, he still has two hectares of land. In addition to the income from hunting, his children are adults, and he does not need to continue to pay expenses. So he had a good life.

Karma explained: You know what kind of life I like, in Sofia it really kills my fighting spirit!

Sergey looked at him dumbfounded, unable to speak for a long time. After a pause, he said, Are you crazy? The army won't want you to be immortal. Are you going to be a mercenary?

Karma shook her head and said, No, I'm not crazy. In fact, I'm going to be a colony sheriff. You know how many people are lacking there. As long as they are willing to sign up, they will accept it! Besides, I'm still a retired military officer. , you can become an officer in the past!

Sergey knew that Karma was not lying, that the colonies on the African side were indeed recruiting people, and they had reached the point of starvation.

Karma's actual age was only in her forties. It was only because the average life expectancy at that time was too short that she was regarded as an old man, but they were not much worse than young people in terms of physical fitness.

Sergey asked in surprise: There is such a good thing, you are an officer as soon as you go there? Don't forget that although you are a retired officer, you are only a retired officer in the reserve, and you are still an unlucky bastard that the war is over as soon as you enter the battlefield. !

Karma blushed. This retired officer was putting gold on his face. Although he participated in the Balkan War and the World War, he had no chance to play. He had just been mobilized to take up arms and rushed to the front line, and then the war was over. .

Although he is a veteran, he has never killed an enemy, not even a chance to exchange fire with the enemy. His military membership is only a reserve, and he has become a squad leader by virtue of his seniority.

It is estimated that no one will admit his identity as an officer anywhere. If he wants to be recognized by everyone, he is at least one military feat short of it!

This is also a Bulgarian rule. Everything is equal to the merits of war. If you are lucky, even if you are just a civilian who transports supplies and kills a few enemies, you can still gain everyone's respect. Anyway, even if the regular army has no merit in battle, it will be inferior!

Recruiting retired officers and soldiers to serve in the colonies is also Ferdinand's plan. On the one hand, it can strengthen the management of the colonies, and on the other hand, it can also eliminate unstable factors.

Many of the people who have just come off the battlefield have mental illnesses, and they cannot recover in a while. Now Bulgaria does not have enough psychiatrists to treat them mentally.

It is easy for these people to stay in the country to cause social security problems, and it is easy to have radical thoughts. Many people will feel unbalanced when they see others' meritorious deeds. They will think that they are no worse than others, but they lack an opportunity!

For this opportunity, it is estimated that many people will do things, and even artificially create conflicts with neighboring countries and deliberately cause wars!

Going to a colony is different. If you want to start a war, just fight! Anyway, the enemy is the tribal chief, no matter how much trouble Bulgaria can hold, there is no such thing as having fun!

When they are done venting, the colony is almost cleaned up. It's killing two birds with one stone, and Karma is the beneficiary of this policy!

Karma hesitantly said, That's different. This time I'm going with someone. As long as I gather twenty young men, I'll be the squadron captain!

Sergey nodded, this is not too bad, everyone in Africa is unfamiliar, and there are not many acquaintances around, how can they get used to it?

Ferdinand is not stupid. Of course, he knows that in an unfamiliar environment, it is the easiest way to live in a group. Therefore, most of the basic staff put their local neighbors together, and everyone can take care of each other.

The most important thing is that the mortality rate can be reduced. The biggest enemy of developing the African continent is not the indigenous people, but - acclimatization!

As for whether there will be a group of local snakes in the future, Ferdinand said that he does not care. Anyway, there are not many people on the African continent. It will be the year of the monkey and the horse when it is developed. Even if there is a local snake government, it can be divided slowly. Anyway, A small group of 180 people cannot threaten the government's rule!

After a pause, Karma said with some embarrassment: That Sergey told you good news, I also accepted two of your boys, don't worry, the boss will keep it for you, he wanted to go, but I Persuaded to stop!

We are not old friends, I will help you take care of them, and then we will go to Africa to reunite!

Sergey's face suddenly gloomy, if eyes can kill, now Karma has been shattered.

What? Karma how can you do this? Have you asked my opinion? Sergey said angrily

Karma said without changing his face: Isn't this telling you? Besides, they are all adults, it's time to let them go out and create!

If it weren't for this epidemic, we would have arrived in Africa now. If you are worried, you can choose to go with us!

Sergey forcibly suppressed his anger, and his heart was bleeding. Fortunately, he was an ordinary small businessman, always timid, otherwise he might have to fight Karma now.

As for going to Africa for development, it is not suitable for someone like him who has no ambitions. According to his plan, he will keep a few sons by his side to help with business.

Anyway, backed by Sofia, some mountain goods and daily necessities are dumped, and this profit is enough for them to support their families.

Obviously, his ideas are not equal to the ideas of his sons. Jin Ge iron horse is the mainstream of Bulgarian society. Young people who are not warlike are definitely not pure Bulgarians!

Sergey smiled bitterly and said, Why go to Africa, can't you go to the Asia Minor Peninsula? It's closer here, and the conditions are much better!

It doesn't matter that you are immortal, but what about the children? You can't take them on adventures, don't you want them to never go home once in their lifetime?

Karma blushed a little, and said embarrassedly, I can't make the decision about this issue, and besides, where to go is not where to go!

What's wrong with going to Africa, the conditions there are poor, but it's a good thing to do! Encircling the natives in the mountains is always safer than fighting a war, right?

In fact, we first signed up for the Arabian Peninsula, and we went there to do a guy named Nejd. Unfortunately, the regular army robbed us first. Our task is only to deal with the miscellaneous fish!

You know I'm a hunter, it's not my fault, my ancestors were hunters, and I've been a hunter for more than 20 years, so they all agreed that I was suitable for hunting orangutans in Africa!

Karma was also very aggrieved, because he was born as a hunter, so the group he brought was determined to go to the African jungle.

Judging from the fact that it is easy to make military exploits, the Arabian Peninsula is the best choice. It is about to attack the indigenous kingdom, and fight a kingdom with a population of two or three million. No matter how you look at it, it has a future to deal with a group of tribal chiefs!

Sergey nodded helplessly and said, Okay, when you're done, you can get out now, don't affect my business!

Obviously, he is still very angry, but as a father he cannot interfere with the choices of his sons, which is also a European tradition.

According to European tradition, the eldest son stayed behind to inherit the family business, and the second son left home to explore the world. Karma did not kidnap his eldest son, but took his second son out to seek a living, which was in line with local traditions. So despite being angry, Sergey didn't break out.

Now the two younger sons are married, and even if they don't leave now, they will leave the house in a few years. If they stay at home and live with their parents and brothers, they will be looked down upon.

Perhaps this is the real reason why they are willing to go out with Karma and venture into Africa!

Sergey had realized that his previous plan was inappropriate. He hastily ended the business, closed the door of the grocery store, and returned home. He would ask his two sons for their opinions again.

If he just wanted to go out, he still hoped they could stay in Sofia. Close to home and the capital, all conditions are very good, and it is relatively easy to find a job.

Sergey didn't know what the African continent was like, and it wouldn't be a good place in his opinion anyway. Of course, judging from the government's propaganda, it is still fertile ground, but there is no time to develop it!

Sergey asked, Have you two made up your mind, Raul and Caton? You really want to go to the African colony with Kalma. The environment there is quite bad. Are you ready?

Raul replied: Dear father, we are ready! You know, this is our dream, and we don't want to live under your wings all the time!

Sergey lit a cigarette, smoked it, and didn't speak for a long time.

Well, did your wives agree? Now that you are all married, you can't just act on your own will! Sergey said earnestly

Caton next to him answered first: Don't worry, father, we have grown up and know what we are doing, we will go to Africa together, and the colonial government will help arrange work!

And hospitals and schools will also be established at the same time, you don't have to worry about our living problems!

Sergey nodded. The government's determination to develop colonies is unshakable. According to the data released by the government, 800,000 people will immigrate to Africa within five years. Hospitals and schools are naturally indispensable.

Sergey said expectantly, Well, now that you're ready, go tell your mother, I think she needs comfort now!

Of course, if you can change your mind, that's even better, I still recommend you stay in Sofia, it won't be so easy to open up the wasteland!
