Chapter 2128 I was a slave too

"Since you have chosen to be a non-combatant, I won't stop you. At present, you can report to the Human Resources Department, and someone will help you assign jobs based on your expertise.

At this stage, we don’t have to worry about not being able to find a job, and various major projects are being carried out continuously. Even as a basic labor force, we can find a job with good rewards.

However, you must also be mentally prepared. The rationing of non-combatants in terms of food and other aspects is not very good, because we had a conflict with the Ma family not long ago, which led to some problems in our reputation as a neutral force. The previous trade with some families was cut off, and several batches of goods and livestock that were agreed to be delivered were not delivered in time. In the next period of time, the personal meat rationing will likely be reduced, and the meat prices in the market will also rise to a certain extent.

If you choose to start with ordinary workers, you must be prepared to give up the generous treatment of being a top-notch person. If you want to survive in the winter snow, we must be united. The premise of unity is to be as fair as possible."

Ma Hongyun was a little dizzy after being said by a bunch of big truths, but he still registered his identity as Lan Nuo and joined the infrastructure engineering team as a refugee.

In terms of infrastructure construction, there are still many projects that require manpower, so workers are short of workers at all times. After Ma Hongyun introduced his situation to the registration staff, the registration staff pointed him in a way: "If your physical strength is really as far beyond ordinary people as you described, then I suggest you go to the motor engineering team there. Among the non-Gu master's engineering program, these people have the highest income."

"Mobile Engineering Team? What is that?"

"In short, you don't have a fixed job, and you will be mobilized wherever you are short of people, because your physical strength is far greater than that of ordinary people, and large steam cranes in some places cannot enter and exit, so you often need some people with endless strength to assist, so you usually use humanoid cranes to solve some sudden engineering problems.

These are usually the best choice for those who are not qualified to become Gu masters but can barely carry Gu worms. The Gu worms will not disappear after adding strength marks to the user, and can be used in turn. Therefore, many strong men like this have been trained so far. Because it is high-intensity physical labor and has a certain scarcity, the salary will usually be much higher. If the performance is good, it can almost double the basic salary."

Ma Hongyun thought about it and nodded and agreed: "Then I'll go to this mobile engineering team. Money seems to be very important to you. It's always good to make more money."

"My little comrade, your ideological awareness needs to be improved. Salary is just a means to allocate the wealth we create more reasonably. But it is too early to tell you this now. At that time, someone from the neighborhood committee will talk about our philosophy. It is not bad to work hard to make more money." While stamping the official seal on the certificate, the staff skillfully operated the mechanical typewriter beside them and handed a transfer order to the newcomer in front of them.

According to the instructions of the staff, Ma Hongyun quickly found the motor engineering team he was going to. He originally thought it was a small team of three or five people. When he really arrived at the place, he saw that there was an underground office facility completely built of reinforced concrete, with dozens of people coming and going in and out. It was not smaller than the place he did just now. Later, he learned that the number of the motor engineering team reached 1,55. Although each team usually only has eight to ten people, the number of teams is hundreds, active in all parts of the entire underground construction project.

Although Ma Hongyun had never done anything in a government agency, the process here was clear at a glance and the efficiency of doing things was quite high, so that he felt as if he had come to another world. Looking back at the time when he was a slave not long ago, he wanted to find a job, but he was driven away by the slave owner every day, engaging in heavy or dirty labor. He did not have any right to make any choice in his life.

Now, everything is different. In the eyes of modern people in the 21st century, such extensive management as planned economy, individuals still have no freedom. Even if they want to change a job, it is quite difficult for ordinary people. That is to say, only a very small number of people can change their destiny through learning and doing business.

But for Ma Hongyun, this is unprecedented freedom. Although the hours of work and get off work are fixed, he can at least decide what he can choose to eat in the cafeteria, and choose to take leave when he is tired or sick.

During the holidays, you can experience novel and simple entertainment in the movie room. These things may be used to modern people, but for a slave, it is tantamount to opening the door to a new world. At the same time, it also makes him deeply realize that the light banknotes are such a wonderful thing.

Among the engineering team, Ma Hongyun's workers got along well with him. The one with the best relationship with him was a worker named Li Sanjiu, and the one who worked the most hard in their team. It is said that he chose this name himself.

"When slavery was abolished, there was a lot of turmoil among the major tribes. After all, we were considered the private property of tribe men at that time, and letting us get freedom was equivalent to robbing them.

However, at that time, the military power of the territory was no longer in the hands of the few Gu masters. I remember that several old nobles united to assassinate the lord, but the lord led the guards to directly drive out of the government building. Then they were ruthlessly suppressed. That time, many people were killed, and even the head of a family died. After that, no one dared to mention maintaining slavery. After all, a considerable number of those who suppressed the lord's army were organized slaves.

Later, I asked us slaves to name ourselves. I was not very educated at that time. In addition, when I was working in the programming engineering team, it was No. 39. Everyone was accustomed to calling each other. I chose a surname according to the above requirements and regarded Sanjiu as his name!

Names are actually code names. The booklet posted above says that people are not just ourselves, but also a collection of our social relations. So what is important is not my name, but people who have various relationships with me. However, I don’t understand these great principles very well now.

To be honest, if it weren’t for the fact that I would have required sufficient education to be promoted to senior employees, I wouldn’t be willing to go to night school, but educated people are indeed better here, and their salary is much higher. After completing the first training at night school, although I only learned the simplest literacy and arithmetic, my salary has increased by 30% compared to before learning these, and the entire team has received more work.

If you want to make more money, you can also learn. Don’t rush to spend the money you earn. You can save it in your hand to buy the right to use the insect.

Many of the power insects will not disappear after use. After you use it, you can increase your own strength and then give it to others for use. You can take turns to increase your strength.

I have used two kinds of strength Guworms. In the mobile engineering team, the strength is quite high, and I am about to save enough money for the third Guworm, but I am still not as strong as you, you are not as strong as your brother. The more we are, the harder we can get. The commission for the final salary will be. Almost every time I increase the strength of a Guworm, the income will be increased by about 30%. If I get a few more, my income will be able to catch up with those low-level Gu masters. I will save more money in the future. I will take a long vacation to learn some knowledge and only when I am full of my profession can I learn it. When I was studying in night school, I was confused and fell asleep several times. If the teacher there hadn't been holding me up and I had been working for a day, I wouldn't have listened.

People always have a day when they grow old, and according to what they have experienced, people like us learn the fastest time period for people like us to learn is youth. When they get older, their learning speed will slow down. By that time, it will be difficult to accept new things.

I want to learn a technique when I was relatively young. After all, my body cannot be young forever. When I get old, I cannot keep doing physical work like this. Although I have pension insurance or something, life cannot be too moist if I don’t have other income.

And it is said that the work done in technical positions is easier and the income may be higher. If it is really as good as they said, it will be perfect. At that time, I will definitely find a job that is easy and high-income, and I may not be so busy at that time. If I have the opportunity to go out for a walk in my spare time, I might be able to meet a woman I like, and my family and my children in the future."

After listening to the imagination of his colleagues for so long, Ma Hongyun asked curiously: "Do you think so? Do most people here think so? Do most of the people here think so far? Or do you actually spend all the money by making a little money, and there are more people who enjoy it in time."

"There are only a part of the people who think like me, but it should be the majority. Everyone still wants to make their lives better and better. But what they have to say is the free people in this tribe. Those free people who are not Gu Masters but are indeed relatives of Gu Masters in the family, and those who live a good life are relatively less motivated than us.

I observed that slaves who seemed to be the masters like us were more motivated to work hard and save money.

Maybe it is because no matter how hard we worked, we could not get any reward. No matter how hard we worked, we had nothing to do, and even our own life did not belong to us. But now, hard work has finally paid off, so even if the reward is not particularly rich, unlike the examples of the legendary stories about getting rich overnight and seeking wealth in danger, we still flock to it."

Ma Hongyun nodded. He actually had similar ideas. However, his current cultural level made him unable to summarize it well. Now, thinking about it is true. When I was a slave, I worked hard and could only get less whip and less hungry, but I could never get what I belong to me, let alone freedom. Now their income is not particularly high. But they can always accumulate what I belong to me a little bit. Their own generation may still not be able to live a very wonderful life, but if they accumulate a certain amount of wealth, they can give their descendants a better education. Perhaps the next generation will have a more exciting life.

The newest ⊥小⊥小⊥ said⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥!

"By the way, do you work so hard, don't you worry that one day our lord will be killed and the existing order in our territory will be completely overturned? If that happens, will all the accumulated things be wasted? At that time, you will still have to go back to be slaves." Ma Hongyun knew more than ordinary people at the bottom.

Although the troops at the underground base recently successfully defeated the Ma family, one of the Golden Family. There were more golden families on the grassland. The Ma family was far from the most powerful of these golden families. Frustrating them does not mean that they can defeat the stronger families nor does it mean that they can defeat their coalition forces. These families launched a siege before, but were ordered by the immortals behind them.

In other words, even if he defeated the siege of all the Golden Family, there is a very likely event that an immortal would come to deal with them in person. In that case, it seems that there is really no way out. Ma Hongyun is actually a little confused now. He fell in love with life here, but he is more sober than others. He realized clearly that this is a doomed failure effort.

"How is that possible? Didn't our lord just take us to a victory? The enemy was easily solved, and even the reserve team was not sent. There were not many casualties in the entire territory. Even more people came to siege, they could deal with it, right? And all of them were beaten so badly. Don't you think too much when others attacked?"

"I mean, what if one day the lord really fails? It's just an assumption."

Li Sanjiu sighed helplessly and said, "What can I do? If there is no hope of winning. If I am destined to fail, then I can only run away. After all, if I stay, I will either die or continue to be a slave.

After you said this, I feel that I have to learn more. I have to learn the guys in the government department and see how they built such a territory. Even if they are defeated, if I can escape, I will find a way to build an identical underground base!"
