Infrastructure starts from the game

Mark didn't notice his wife's gaze, he was watching the opening of Cecilia's recruitment office with Loach.

It wasn't just them, the banners hung up in such a big way at the recruitment office naturally attracted the attention of all parties.

But most of the people here are illiterate.

——Although the emperor promotes compulsory education, only half of the children can go to school, especially in a "prosperous" metropolis like Xie Sisi, there is no shortage of job opportunities, and a half-old child can be used by half an adult. Wages are still low, so many middle and lower civilian families send their children to factories early.

Next to Mark, a worker asked, "What is this doing?"

"Let's hire a job..." Mark said uncertainly.

In fact, he can't read a few words, but the scene in front of him is very common in the dreams provided by Dream Candy - except for the transfer port, Mark has worked in many dreams - many of the 'task collection points' in the dreams are is a similar scene.

Mark almost reflexively wanted to go forward to pick up the task.

Seeing this scene in reality, Mark was a little uncertain: "It's a bit like the sky rail project?" Having said that, Mark shut his mouth in embarrassment.

He was afraid that others would misunderstand him as crazy.

After all, the railway in the night sky is too beautiful and too dreamy. Like Mi Duo, Mark can't be sure that the railway really exists in a certain corner of the world.

Fortunately, the worker didn't notice the strangeness of Mark's words. He just said, "Hiring? Are they crazy? Are they recruiting at the entrance of the Earl's watch factory?"

"No one drove them away from the factory, so they should have been allowed, right?"

"But I bet that whoever goes there will definitely be punished by the foreman."

The workers talked a lot. Although they were not optimistic about the existence of the recruitment office, they had no plans to leave. After all, for them who worked like machines, it was rare for them to have something new to watch.

There are also some people who are really moved.

One of the middle-aged workers with deeper wrinkles than the others approached Mark and asked in a low voice, "You just said that the railway's recruitment... did they say how much it is?"

Before Mark could answer, another worker next to him yelled: "Old Brown, are you crazy? You want to work on the railway? Are you dying?"

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm just curious." The worker called Old Brown glanced nervously at the crowd, and when he confirmed that the foreman was not here, he was slightly relieved.

Old Brown then glared at the worker just now. If the foreman found out, he would definitely be fired.

But Old Brown also really hopes to change jobs.

Although after the earl took the workers in the factory to supply energy for his games every day, Old Brown's spirit improved a lot, and he never heard strange auditory hallucinations or grew strange things on his body anymore, but It didn't improve his life.

The work is still tiring, the working hours are still so long - even because of the extra club schedule, the working hours are extended, and this time is counted as "rest" without salary - Old Brown still has so many children, The monthly salary is still so small, and I still have to worry about survival every day.

It's just that after a little strengthening of mental strength, Old Brown finally had the time to think about other things.

Like finding another job.

It's a pity that if Old Brown had other connections, he wouldn't have entered this factory in the first place, so thinking about it can only be thinking about it.

Now that there is another opportunity in front of him, Old Brown is somewhat excited.

Even though he knew that the work on the railway was tiring and hard, as long as he had enough money, Old Brown was willing to give it a try.

His eldest son's grades in the free school are very good, and the teacher said that he has the hope of further education.

Old Brown felt that his life was inexplicably picked up. I don’t know if the problem of growing strange things on his body has been completely cured. If he can confess his eldest son so that he doesn’t have to repeat his tragedy, that’s it. A good "deal".

That's why Old Brown took the risk to ask Mark: "I heard that there is a lot of money on the railway?"

"No..." Mark wanted to explain, but in fact, he was also illiterate, and he was just dreaming and talking nonsense.

But when Mark raised his eyes and saw Old Brown's eyes full of hope and hope, he couldn't say anything.

The man has not despaired.

When Mark still owned his wife and shop, although he was tired and hard, he also had such eyes.

Mark didn't want to spoil the poor man's little expectations at this moment. He also knew what the other party was worried about—if he took the initiative to ask in such a sensitive place, it would be different from telling the boss that he wanted to change jobs. So naturally I dare not go forward.

Mark is a homeless person and has no such concerns.

"Let me ask!" Mark whispered.

According to his experience in the dream, he walked towards the far right of the recruitment office and asked loudly, "Are you recruiting here? How much is the salary?"

The staff at the recruitment office showed a surprised expression. He didn't seem to expect that someone would come to ask so soon.

But he glanced at the workers behind Mark who were looking at them curiously, quickly showed a professional smile, and replied loudly: "Yes, we are the recruitment office of the Sky Railway. If you are successfully hired, you only need to work every day. After eight hours, there will be a silver coin, and there will be an overtime bonus if the time is exceeded."

This elicited a sigh.

This salary is not bad for Shesser.

Although the salary level of Cecilia is slightly higher than that of Cecilia, and the monthly income of a family is around [-] silver coins (this is the data that the city hall is willing to announce), but it is usually the result of the work of two people—poor women They are not eligible to stay at home, even children over the age of eight will become child laborers.

Now one person can earn a family's money.

What's more, this is still the basic salary, and there is a guarantee of overtime bonus—maybe the rune designers and designers will not believe this guarantee, their work cannot be counted by piece, and they are used to working overtime for nothing, but for the workers on the production line, the overtime bonus is the most important thing , usually this carrot hangs them and causes karoshi.

Many people who didn't care about it at first also showed excited expressions.

But the recruiter didn't finish his sentence. He added: "Not only that, we also provide food and housing. For employees with children, we will also provide books and tuition fees. Professional tutoring teachers will provide tutoring. Those who don't want to go to school Technical training is available—of course, they have to work with us as a priority after graduation—and a lunch is included every day.”

Hearing this, Old Brown almost stepped forward.

It's just that he still has some doubts, and he doesn't dare to risk losing his job.

——Although Old Brown likes this job very much, but he is old, why don't people want him?

There should be quite a few people who think like Old Brown, so the venue was quickly surrounded by people, but no one dared to step forward.

But for the recruiting staff, his goal has been achieved.

With so many people watching, the news will definitely spread among the workers. Maybe they didn't dare to ask at the gate of their own factory, but they soon discovered that such a recruitment office is also located at the gate of other factories, near their own street. , and the entrances to certain markets, then they won't have any worries.

But why didn't I think of it at first?You should find a speaker or amplify magic, and broadcast it repeatedly.

The recruiter thought so, and did not forget the first Mark who came up to sing with him. He smiled and said, "How is it? Sir, are you interested? You just need to register the basic information, and you can go to the one we prepared. Dormitory - of course, you can also visit our construction site, which is near the botanical garden on the western outskirts of the city."

"I'll think about it," Mark replied.

He was indeed a little moved, but when he heard the other party mention the "children", he suddenly lost his motivation.

After all, what was there for him to fight for?

It's not bad to just live.

But Loach can consider this job, Mark thought so, and wanted to leave.

But the staff member enthusiastically said: "Wait a minute, everyone who comes here for consultation will have a small gift."

"But I'm just asking?"

"Consultation means to ask. Anyone who comes to ask for the first time will have a gift." The other party said.

He turned around and wanted to take out the gift he had prepared earlier from the box at the back, but he stumbled when he bent down. When he raised his head again, he saw that there was already a gift on the cardboard box.

Was this just here?

The staff member didn't think much about it. He was worried that Mark would be impatient, so he picked up the small gift and handed it to Mark.

Mark didn't care, and returned to the crowd with a gift.

"Look! What's inside?" Loach immediately encouraged happily.

The other workers also looked at Mark curiously, and Mark opened the package in public.

"Ah, it's candy." It's still dream candy.

Loach was a little disappointed.

But other workers don't think so. Who doesn't have many children?It's always good to go back with candy, and if the other party sends candy, it doesn't mean that you want to change jobs - people who think so don't know if it's for the candy or for recruiting.

Mark held the candy, but his eyes were a little straight.

He wasn't distracted by the candy, but when he opened the package, he found that there were a few figures drawn with strange symbols in the package—these were not words or magic runes, but Mark and his wife, who were not very literate. When opening a store, I invented a set of simple signs for the purpose of settling accounts.

Now the sign means "look to the right".

Mark looked to the right with trembling lips. On the other side of the small building in the direction of the factory, the bird-beaked doctor who "much like his wife" was staring in his direction.

Let's not mention Mark's joy and anger.

Maybe Goddess of Fate wouldn't pay attention to such little people, would she?

But such a big publicity, just as the workers feared, was enough to make the managers of the factory area already angry.

"Who the hell allowed them to recruit here?"

"It seems to be a commercial agreement signed by the earl, which requires that half of the workers of Chesser be hired for the project across the eastern border."

"So they just come to our door?"

"You must report to the earl as soon as possible!"

So, within half a day, the matter was delivered to the earl's bedside.

Under the influence of the scented candles, the count has been sleeping for two full days. Mido was worried that his old father would die like this, so he extinguished the scented candles. I don't know if it was a side effect. The count is now feeling a headache.

"Help?" the earl murmured, "People from the east?"

"Yes." The reporter bowed his head, "They not only recruited workers at our door, but also offered very generous salaries."

They are really not afraid to tear faces with us!

thought the Count angrily.

(The owner of a workshop with no emotional intelligence: ??? No, I just recruit workers casually?)

But the Earl didn't dare to tear his face.

If the Earl had thought that he was negotiating with the Eastern Territory on an "equal basis", after he tried to violate the agreement and was backlashed by the agreement, the Earl would no longer have the confidence to die.

If he wants to die again, at least wait until he goes to the capital to rescue the soldiers.

So the earl gritted his teeth and said, "Hmph, leave them alone, take care of our people and let them do it!"

"Huh?" The reporter showed a surprised expression.

"Those guys offer such high salaries in order to poach people, and I don't know if their business will be paid back in the end!" The count sneered, "Do you really think that the money of the Shessers is so easy to earn?"

Like all the arrogant Chessers, the count is full of confidence in the city.

Although the products in front of the magic gears are all selling well, the Earl thinks that they are just 'gadgets'. Out of the curiosity-seeking mentality, the Shessers will not reject these magic items, but if it is related to railways and other major projects, then But maybe, everything can only be done according to Shesser's standards.

Yes, the city will punish those rednecks!

You just have to watch from the side.

It's not that I'm afraid, it's just a strategic avoidance!

"The more they spend in the early stage, the worse they will lose in the end!" the Earl said with certainty.

"As expected of the Earl." But the focus of the next work is to restrain the workers and prevent them from running away, right?

The reporter thought to himself, and continued to ask for instructions: "Then, are you still planning to attend the railway planning meeting they mentioned? The East has sent people here, and it seems that they attach great importance to it. They still want to participate in this meeting." The location of the selected station."

The count resisted the urge to shudder.

He didn't want to hear anything about the business agreement at all now.

The count subconsciously wanted to push it away, but he paused, but said to the servant: "Call Mido and let her attend instead of me!"

Sure enough, as the rumors said, after the Earl fell ill, he really valued the young lady very much!

The reporter thought so.

"Father asked me to attend the meeting?" Mi Duo asked in disbelief.

As the person concerned, Mi Duo knew better than anyone else that "the Earl's value" was her false appearance, so she couldn't understand why her father was willing to let her attend the meeting instead of her.

Mi Duo subconsciously declined: "But, I don't know anything about railways at all."

Just want you not to understand!

The count glanced at his daughter with satisfaction.

He thought Mi Duo was resisting him before, but now it seems that he is overthinking it!

But the count is not going to let Mido go, nor is he going to let go of that damn "commercial agreement"—although he doesn't dare to resist himself, "smart" temptations can still be done.

For example, as his agent, Mi Duo is justifiable, even the harshest terms can't find fault

But he knew best about his daughter, and the Earl knew that Mi Duo was not very satisfied with her fiancé, but this child grew up spoiled and spoiled. She wore the most gorgeous clothes, ate the most exquisite food, and wore the most expensive jewelry since she was a child. Learning the most useless skills, you can't do anything but spend money.

Things like urban planning for railway technology simply didn't exist for her.

If such an ignorant young lady messed up something, it wouldn't be the Earl's fault!Didn't violate the agreement either!

You can also hit Mido.

Let her understand that she can't do anything without her father, and it's better to tidy up and marry obediently.

The count thought so, and said weakly: "You think too complicated. This kind of thing is very simple. You don't need to understand it. The main thing is that the people under your command do things. You just need to sit in charge."

"Actually, I wanted to go there in person, but cough cough—" the earl coughed violently.

Father, your cough is too fake.

This is the level that my etiquette teacher will ask you to retake it, okay?

Mi Duo complained in her heart, and immediately threw herself to the earl with the standard posture taught by the etiquette teacher, and said tearfully, "I know! Father, for you, I will go anywhere!" Except for marriage.

"It's all up to you," the count ordered.

The father-daughter relationship was instantly filled with warmth.

But the Count miscalculated.

Obviously a big miscalculation.

As it turned out, he didn't know his daughter at all.

Not only did he not understand his daughter's character, but he also didn't understand her daughter's ability.

So on the second day of the meeting, it was not surprising that the mayor of Cesser appeared in front of the earl with a smile on his face.

"Miss Miduo's performance at the meeting was amazing! She is indeed your daughter!" The mayor praised enthusiastically.

The earl responded lukewarmly: "Really?"

Mayor Cesser did not notice the earl's dissatisfaction.

After all, the earl is a patient. Isn't it normal for a patient to be in a bad mood?Which person is still happily lying on the hospital bed?

Mayor Cesser went on to say: "Especially Miss Mido's proposal about the station...ah, maybe that's your instruction?"

"No, I didn't say anything." The count denied it dryly.

"Really? Ms. Miduo is so genius! Do you know where she chose to build the station? She chose the teleportation port!" Mayor Shesser said, "According to the agreement, we only need to provide the land for the eastern border, and The teleportation port is far away from the city center. Although there is a gimmick of the teleportation array, it has long been abandoned, which means that we hardly have to pay too much! And if the teleportation array at the port can be repaired, it will lead to the east, and we are justified. Let Dongjing help repair the teleportation array, and even use their mages!"

The latter is where the mayor is happiest.

Originally, the earl forcefully proposed the construction plan of the teleportation port, but the mayor had no idea. He always felt that the repair of the past teleportation array was not very sure, and the earl was still sick halfway, so he only asked him to negotiate with the East Territory on the restoration of the port. I have a headache!It was resolved together in this meeting.

"So, the teleportation port restoration agreement has been signed?" the earl asked hoarsely.

"Yes!"

The count nearly passed out again.

Fortunately, after experiencing the shock last time, his ability to accept has been much stronger. After all, he didn't pass out. He just gave his daughter a hard look: "How did you think of that?"

"Huh? Because my father always mentions the transfer port, I think my father will pay attention to it!" Mi Duo said innocently.

Her tone seemed to be chosen at random.

But in fact, Mi Duo's eyes lit up when he came into contact with the construction plan of the sky railway.

So the railway in the sky also exists in reality?

Mi Duo suddenly felt that even if this matter was a trap, it was still worth doing.

And she found that this matter is not too difficult-although she is still not clear about the technical problems, but as the only person on Shesser's side who has seen the sky railway with her own eyes and participated in the repair preparations for the harbor teleportation array, Indeed, there is no one more suitable to do this than Mi Duo.

So Mi Duo led the meeting and finalized the location of the station with the representatives of the East Territory as quickly as possible.

Because the promise was too lenient, Mido even doubted whether the people in Xie Sisi would be dissatisfied with her.

But others don't seem to think so.

Mayor Chesser was very impressed: "The most exciting thing is Miss Mi Duo's request for the East Territory. Not only are they responsible for all the construction costs and technology according to the agreement, but also Miss Miduo's additional requirements, considering the special location of the port. , I hope that the other party will build a large square there that can accommodate humans, aquariums, and other races, and it must be built in seven days!"

The count didn't think there was anything wrong when he heard the first part, but the last sentence made him stunned:

"How many days?"

"Seven days!" The mayor gestured exaggeratedly.

The count looked at his daughter.

"Hey? I thought seven days was enough to build a square, didn't you?" Mi Duo tilted his head and said.

After all, it is Miss Qianjin!

Did she think that building a square was like building blocks?Just a moment?

The two adults present thought so contemptuously, but they didn't have any intention of correcting them. Instead, they agreed: "Yes, that's enough!" How dare people recruit workers so arrogantly? !

Even the count nodded with a smile.

I feel that I am right to send my daughter.

Seeing this, Mi Duo seemed relieved, then frowned and said, "But, I promised that we will be responsible for all the materials and construction costs, and they will refund if they can't do it. That's a lot of money!" Mi Duo thought it was a large sum of money, obviously it was a large sum.

"That's a bit of a pity. You should ask the people from the East to pay for the construction of the square." This was the only dissatisfaction with Mayor Cesser in this negotiation.

"But they want the right to operate the plaza, and I think it would be better if the right to operate is in Shesser." Mido said with a frown.

If she really had the power, she would rather invest in people from the East to build the railway, and would not hand over the operation of the railway to the East. Unfortunately, this was an agreement signed by her father.

"You don't understand," said the Count.

He blocked his daughter's words with three words, but did not explain the reason.

Only the mayor of Xie Sisi comforted: "Miss Mido has done a good job, not to mention you asked, if they can't build it in seven days, let them take care of the money and materials themselves? In this way, the management right is ours. The money and materials belong to them, hahaha, only people from the east would agree to such an agreement!"

"Really?" Mi Duo replied blankly, but it was obvious that he still didn't understand.

Seeing the bewildered look of "Miss Ignorant Qianjin", the two grown men laughed again.

It was just that after the count laughed a few times, a strong uneasiness suddenly surged into his heart.

Is there really no way for the people of the East to repair the square in seven days?
