Have any of you seen my dragon?
Chapter 19
Right now, it's the middle of winter in the imperial capital, just the opposite of Z City, which is hot in summer. The sky is overcast and snowy.
As soon as Ji Yao got out of the cabin, he sneezed in the bitingly cold air, and hurriedly wrapped his coat tightly.
The clothes worn by ordinary people on Planet Alpha are made of certain chemical fabrics. The advantage is that they are cheap and durable. To a certain extent, the inner temperature can be automatically adjusted with the outside temperature. It is warm in winter and cool in summer. In most cases, it can be worn four seasons.Ji Yao is also wearing this kind of coat now. It is fine to wear it above zero temperature, but it is not enough for it below zero temperature.
Fortunately, he quickly got into the car that came to meet Antonio, and Ji Yao recovered after a while.
An hour later, I arrived at the Admiral's Mansion, a large mansion that looked like it had been around for some years and occupied a large area, and it was only about two kilometers away from the imperial palace, separated by an avenue and a royal garden that was still verdant in winter.
The smart central air-conditioning in the villa is very warm, but the furniture and furnishings reveal a cold and hard style that is very suitable for military temperament.Various guns and weapons from various historical periods are hung on the wall as decorations. The yellow vases on the table are made of bullet casings. There is even a cannon with a barrel length of 3 meters in the middle of the hall. The huge living room is like Like a munitions exhibition hall, it makes people feel a little cold on the back.
Wearing a black bow tie and meticulously combed hair, the butler Charles led a group of servants to greet Antonio in the front hall, calling Antonio "Master", and then those who received the cloak received the cloak, and those who handed hot towels handed over hot towels in a respectful and orderly manner.
Antonio wiped his hands and face with a hot towel, pointed at Ji Yao who was looking around, and said casually: "His name is Evans, my newly hired entourage, you arrange a place for him, and teach him some rules when you have time."
"Yes." Charles bowed and replied, "Evans, come with me."
With years of experience as a housekeeper, Charles realized that this new young man was not an ordinary entourage to the general, so he took Ji Yao to a room on the first floor of the main building of the villa, "From now on, you will live here One, the master lives on the second floor, and the other servants live in the annex next to it."
The room looks pretty good, much bigger than the rest room in the pet shop. It has all the furniture and electrical appliances inside, and it has its own bathroom. However, the decoration is as tough and simple as the military dormitory, and even the sheets are olive-colored.
Ji Yao said, "Thank you."
The corners of Charles' mouth were tense, and the wrinkles between his brows were as deep as the cracks in the granite of the villa's outer wall. He said firmly, "You don't need to thank me, as long as you serve the master well in the future. The general's mansion is under militarized management. You just came in today. The level is the third-class servant, and if there are no special circumstances, the lights in the room will be automatically turned off at 3 o'clock in the evening from 24 o'clock in the morning. The master must be there for any order, and the response time should not exceed [-] minutes, and [-] hours can not be slack."
Ji Yao was stunned when he heard that, he would get up at six o'clock, so he would not be able to sleep late after that.
"Clean up first, and I will tell you about the other rules later."
After Charles left, Ji Yao took out his clothes and supplies from his backpack and put them in the corresponding places. He didn't have many things, and he tidied them up in a few minutes.
There is a window on the north wall of the room, facing a corner of the back garden of the general's mansion.The snow has accumulated a thin layer, covering the lawn in the garden with a white and fluffy blanket.
Further forward is the evergreen arbor forest belt planted around the royal garden, like tall soldiers standing quietly.Across this vast garden, you can see the tall spiers of a certain palace in the palace, shining golden in the dim sky, and the scenery is not bad.
Ji Yao pressed the wristband, called up the camera function, took a photo outside the window, and then went to Super A to update his status.
Ji Yao is not far away: [We have arrived at the imperial capital and settled down.The imperial capital is much bigger than City Z, and it is also very prosperous and beautiful. I wonder if Aaron has been here before...]
After a few minutes of refreshing, there are already dozens of comments.
——Oh, this residence feels quite tall, and you can even see the golden dome of the palace. It seems that the employer is quite powerful.
——It’s snowing in the imperial capital, it looks so cool, my place is so hot today!
——Damn it!If I read correctly, the photo was taken in the upper city of the imperial capital, which is not a place where ordinary people can live!
——Everyone, knock on the blackboard, isn't the focus of this post on "Aaron"?
——Who is Aaron?Is it a person or a dog?Why haven't I seen my little brother mention it before... Could it be a boyfriend?Oh, I'm lost in love!
——Ji Yao, you are still young, your mother forbids you to fall in love so early!
——How does the new employer treat you?If you are wronged or bullied, don't bear it, speak up and let's help you find a solution.
This comment was sent by Lili, and Ji Yao replied "Don't worry, he treats me well, I will take care of myself".
Afterwards, Ji Yao followed a big V whose ID is "Emperor Capital Life Circle", browsed the homepage for a while, wanted to learn more about the culture and customs of the Imperial Capital, and was surprised by the data in a certain post.
"According to the latest market survey, the average price of new houses in Imperial City this month is 68,537/sqm, of which the average price of the first ring area is 165,405/sqm, the third ring area is 93,213/sqm, the fifth ring area is 49,210/sqm, and the eighth ring area is 21,405/sqm. An average increase of 0.87 percent."
Needless to say, the first ring area must be the core area centered on the imperial palace, and most of the Admiral's Mansion is located in this area, which really explains what is meant by "every inch of land and every inch of gold".However, not to mention the first ring road, even the fifth ring district has frighteningly high housing prices, and the eighth ring district looks a little more friendly to the people.
Ji Yao checked again, and found that the Eighth Ring District was already far away from the outskirts of the imperial capital, and it would take two hours to reach the core area of the First Ring Road by taking the intercity light rail at a speed of 300 kilometers per hour.
Even so, a 50-square-meter small apartment in the Eighth Ring District would cost millions, and it would take three full years to afford Ji Yao's current salary.
No, don't even think about buying a house. I'm afraid I can't even afford the rent of a shop. Living in the imperial capital is not easy.
In the future, it is better to open a pet store in another city, such as Z City, or a third- and fourth-tier city with lower consumption...
Just as he was thinking about it, Charles' voice suddenly came from the intercom installed in the corner: "Evans, the master is going to have breakfast, so hurry up and serve him in the dining room."
Ji Yao had no choice but to put away his bracelet and hurried to the restaurant.
Your Excellency the Admiral is not yet married, and his parents are not around, so he dines alone. The table is filled with all kinds of drinks and food, and there are corresponding complicated tableware.
Ji Yao was dazzled and didn't know where to start. He almost knocked over the seasoning jar by mistake, and was glared at by Charles.
Antonio also felt that Ji Yao was clumsy, which affected his appetite, but he didn't lose his temper at him, but waved him impatiently to let him back down, and replaced him with two maids.
Ji Yao was happy to step back to the side as a decoration, but his stomach was a little flustered looking at the table full of delicious food.
When coming from Z City, the military plane was flying too fast, and the angle of takeoff and landing was too steep, which made Ji Yao feel a little uncomfortable, so even though the plane meal was rich, he didn't eat much, and now he felt hungry after recovering.
After finally waiting for Antonio to finish his breakfast, Ji Yao can finally eat in the kitchen with other servants.
The meals of the general's servants were pretty good, with a variety of varieties. Even though they were quite different from the general's own meals, they were still better than ordinary people's meals, so Ji Yao devoured a lot.
"Evans." Charles frowned and tapped the table with his knuckles.
Apart from his good looks, this kid is terrible in other aspects. He is free and undisciplined, and he doesn't even know basic dining etiquette.If it were any other servant, the poor performance at the dinner table just now must be punished, and I don't know how the admiral would tolerate it and treat him differently.
"What's the matter?" Ji Yao raised his head from the plate, swallowed the food in his mouth, and looked innocently at the old housekeeper opposite who had a stormy face.
Looking at those black and white eyes, the reprimand that was already on the verge of Charles's mouth suddenly fell silent, and he couldn't speak. After a while, he said stiffly: "It's nothing, eat slowly, no one will grab you."
"Understood." Ji Yao smiled a little embarrassedly, then picked up the milk oatmeal porridge and drank it in small sips.
After breakfast, a second-class maid named Ella brought Ji Yao two sets of outfits that were uniformly worn by the third-class servants in the mansion, including clothes, hats, shoes and socks.The dark coffee-colored uniform jacket is also made of chemical fabric, but it is higher-end than the one Ji Yao bought, but the size is a bit too big.
Ji Yao has a slender figure, and the waistband of his uniform was one size too big, so he wore it loosely, so he had to fasten the waistband with a belt to prevent the trousers from slipping down as he walked.
After Ji Yao came out of the locker room wearing the new uniform, Ella kept praising her, "Evans, you look good, and you look very energetic in whatever you wear."
Ji Yao smiled and said, "Thank you."
Ella asked again: "Do you have any relatives or friends in the capital?"
Ji Yao said, "No, what's the matter?"
Although Didu has a few fans, they are not familiar with each other, so they are not friends in reality.
"It's nothing, I just asked casually, do you have a date?"
"Er, not this one either."
Ella was very enthusiastic and said: "I have a cousin who is about the same age as you, and she is also good-looking. I will introduce you to each other later, and I can meet you when you are on vacation."
Ji Yao said with some embarrassment: "Thank you for your kindness, but I may like the same sex, and I haven't started working for a long time, so I don't plan to consider personal issues for the time being."
Ever since that spring dream that made people blush and heartbeat the night before leaving the valley, Ji Yao has had a dim awareness of the object he likes, and has purely admiring eyes on girls.
What's more, he has no savings, no time, and no conditions to fall in love, and he might drag the other party down.
Hearing what he said, Ella was not angry at all, but immediately said: "That's it, that's okay, I have a distant cousin who is also gay, he is very handsome, and his family conditions are very good, he lives in a villa and drives a luxury car. Money doesn't matter!"
Ji Yao: "..."
Why does he think it's weird, are the Alpha Stars so keen on Lalang Pei?
The author has something to say: The house price in this chapter refers to the average price in Beijing, which is slightly higher, so please take a look~
Ask for collection, ask for advance receipt, the humble author asks for anything!
