Mechanical Doctor

...

After enjoying a big meal, Manolin asked Fude Luo about the situation of those rescued from the pirate ship.

"I remember that those rescued from the Pirate Island have almost recovered, right?"

"There should be people from the Siren Islands among them, right?"

"Have these people disembarked?"

Fude Luo replied:

"These people have contacted their families, but few want to leave."

Manolin was not surprised by this result.

Most of the people captured were ordinary sailors and some ordinary people on the ship. Those who were rich, powerful or powerful were arranged by the pirates.

Those who were rich and powerful paid the ransom and were taken away, while the extraordinary people who had power but no money and power were either absorbed by the pirates or killed.

After all, even if it was a low-level professional of the first level, it was easy to deal with ordinary pirates with bare hands, and the pirates would not leave such hidden dangers.

Finally, those who stayed on the Pirate Island to mine were naturally ordinary people.

As for why these people don't want to leave the [Pterosaur]?

In fact, the reason is very simple, that is, the treatment under Manolin is too good.

Since these people were rescued on board, they have not been idle. They still went to the factory area to do some work within their ability.

After they learned about the wages and treatment of the workers working here from the workers, they were naturally very envious.

Although the treatment of sailors is actually quite good.

But this is also to be compared with whom.

Compared with ordinary workers, the treatment of sailors is naturally very high, but compared with the treatment of Manolin's men, there is no way to compare.

As the saying goes, people go to high places and water flows to low places. There is nothing wrong with these people wanting to stay on the [Pterosaur] to work.

In fact, Manolin is very welcome for these people to stay.

Among these people, there are a large number of experienced sailors and crew members, which can greatly alleviate the embarrassing situation of the [Pterosaur] lacking manpower in navigation.

And other ordinary people are not useless.

These people come from all walks of life and can effectively fill the gaps in this aspect of the [Pterosaur].

Take haircuts as an example. Originally, there were no professional barbers in the entire fortress. If everyone wanted a haircut, they could only find the family members of the workers who had experience in haircutting to do it.

As for what kind of haircut can be done, it depends on the feel of the few people who can cut hair at that time.

In fact, at the beginning, Manolin had never thought that such an outrageous thing would happen. After all, haircuts are such a common thing. How could there not be professional barbers among so many people?

As a result, reality gave Manolin a big slap in the face - there is really no professional barber among these tens of thousands of people.

As for why, this has to start with the inheritance of ordinary professions in this world.

Due to the impact of industrialization, a large number of traditional professions have lost their market and are forced to disappear, and those professions that have not been replaced by industrialization for the time being are not doing well. After all, other craftsmen who lose their jobs will definitely find other ways to make a living. In addition to entering the factory, those skills that have not been replaced by industrialization are also the goals of these people.

But the problem is that the market for these skills is so small that if one more person comes in to eat, someone will naturally go hungry.

This makes these craftsmen more self-respecting and raises the entry threshold of the industry.

In order to raise the entry threshold of the industry, the "guild" was born.

For example, if you want to be a barber, then you must join the barber guild and obtain the recognition of the guild.

What do you mean you are stubborn? Do you want to do it regardless of the consequences?

Good! Then wait for waves of gangsters and sheriffs!

How can ordinary people withstand the black and white combo of gangsters and sheriffs?

In the end, they either admit their mistakes and surrender to the guild, or close down.

And the standard for Manolin to recruit workers is disabled or poor people, so it is not surprising that these workers and their families do not have professions such as barbers.

...

Moreover, Manolin was willing to recruit these people rescued from the pirate island, not only to enrich the professions in the fortress, but also because they were often sick because of the damage to the essence of their souls.

For other people, hiring sick people is naturally troublesome, but for Manolin, who relies on curing diseases and saving lives to gain experience, these people are all moving experience packs.

Originally, if Manolin was a black-hearted doctor, there were actually many ways to gain experience, such as spreading infectious diseases and treating them.

But his own conscience and professional ethics as a doctor did not allow him to do so, although he was only a half-way doctor and had been working for less than a year....

However, it would be unreasonable not to brush these ready-made "experience packs" now, after all, this is a mutually beneficial thing.

The patient cured the disease, and he gained experience, which is simply the most perfect win-win situation.

...

Manolin lit a cigarette and said:

"Please tell those people that if anyone wants to stay on the ship, I welcome them, and I won't stop those who want to leave."

"Okay!"

After Fude Luo responded, he went to convey the order.

At this time, a security guard came to Manolin with a banquet invitation.

"Mr. Manolin, this is from the Governor's Office."

"Excuse me, go and get busy."

After sending the security guard away, Manolin frowned and looked at the invitation.

The content of the invitation was very simple, that is, the Governor, Na Lao Deng, invited Manolin to participate in the selection ceremony of the Governor's successor three days later.

Manolin was not a dead man, and he could certainly feel the tense situation in the Siren Islands. He had planned to leave after harvesting the last bit of experience and reputation and finding some children with [Mechanic] talent in the next few days, but he did not expect to receive this invitation.

His original intention was not to get involved in this mess. After all, it was the same no matter who was the governor. Would the governor not collect heavy taxes? Would he not exploit ordinary people?

That was impossible.

But now that the governor had sent him an invitation, he had to go.

After all, Manolin still had to stay in the Elliot Federation, and he still needed to go to many cities to promote his reputation and improve his strength.

The governor had always given Manolin face during his time in the Siren Islands, and had given him a lot of conveniences, such as Manolin not paying a penny of tax in the Siren Islands.

In this case, if Manolin does not give the Governor face and does not attend the Governor's "important" successor selection ceremony, if this matter is known to others, Manolin will be "socially dead" in the system of the Elliot Federation.

If he wants to find someone to help or ask others for convenience in the future, the difficulty will be incomparable.

So Manolin has to bite the bullet and go even though he knows there may be trouble.

However, he has no concerns about the safety of going to the Governor's banquet.

In recent days, Manolin has been hindered by the reality that his melee strength is poor (compared with the mecha), so he has come up with something called a disposable energy barrier.

The effect of this thing is very simple, that is, to support an energy barrier that lasts for two or three seconds.

Although this energy barrier is only two or three seconds, for Manolin, it is enough for him to enter the mini Titan mecha and kill.
