Conquering alien worlds starts from the game

Mrs. Harrington, Hal's aunt, gasped slightly when she heard her daughter ask this question unexpectedly, and seemed a little annoyed at her daughter's sudden question.

Fortunately, Ms. Will didn't notice Mrs. Harrington's strangeness, but showed surprise.

Hal is the patriarch of the "Talantine family" at the same time as Charlie Rex, Ms. Mia, Tuttle Joe and others. His reputation has long been known to Ms. Will.

Especially after becoming a clerk in the logistics department, Ms. Will also participated in the logistics support work of the prisoner road construction team for a period of time. She had a good understanding of Hal Maxwell, the former director of the Westham Detention Center and now Innad. Don't mention how familiar he is with the director of the Bureau of Labor Reform.

Well, because the local people are relatively unfamiliar with the term labor reform, most people still habitually call Hal the warden...

"I know you, so you two are relatives of Mr. Hal, the warden?" Ms. Will was sincerely happy for Hal, and said excitedly, "I also heard that Mr. Hal was looking for his lost relatives. That's great, Mr. Hal will be very happy to see you."

Mrs. Harrington froze.

During the years of the Maxwell family's decline, Mrs. Harrington has lost too many relatives. After learning the news of Hal's life, although she still broods over the events of the year, none of these can conceal her dissatisfaction. Missing her loved ones, that's why she didn't hesitate to take her daughter and follow Jasper, the mercenary hired by Hal, all the way here.

Can hire top mercenaries to find them, Hal must have a good life in the Eastern Kingdom, but Mrs. Harrington will never believe how popular Hal can be with the locals - her daughter was still young and no longer Remembered a lot of the situation, but Mrs. Harrington knew all too well how much trouble this nephew could cause!

Just a few years ago, she even saw the arrest warrant for her nephew Hal!

Ms. Will, dressed in the uniform of the town hall and well-spoken, reacted in this way when she heard that they were relatives of Hal Maxwell, which was a bit beyond Mrs. Harrington's expectations.

After a daze, Mrs. Harrington remembered something, and said in surprise, "Ms. Will, you mean... Hal, is the warden?"

"Yes, ma'am." Ms. Will said with a smile, "There are thousands of prisoners under the care of Mr. Hal under the supervision of Mr. Hal. In the past two years, not only have we not heard of any prison escapes, there are many The prisoner was educated by Mr. Hal and returned to his family smoothly. As far as I know, many families in Inadoli City are very grateful to Mr. Hal, and it was Mr. Hal who brought their family back to the right path."

Mrs. Harrington: "...?!"

"Is Cousin Hal so powerful?" Mrs. Harrington's daughter asked curiously.

"It's more than that." Ms. Will said proudly, "Mr. Hal not only manages the prisoners very well, but also presided over the construction of a railway with a length of more than [-] kilometers in the past two years..."

Low-speed green leather train (operating speed is only required to be 60KM per hour) The railway requirements are very low, except that the steel rails must be transferred from the earth and then pulled to the construction site, and the other roadbed sleepers are completely crude... If there are wooden sleepers, use wood, if there is no wood , it can also be used to pull cement steel bars in and cast cement pillows on site.

Hal has a group of heavy-duty prisoners who don't feel sorry for death and don't need to lose money. They can be used as consumables. Risky tasks such as mountain blasting and rock blasting are all used by these heavy-duty prisoners; Districts and districts save the trouble of demolition and resettlement. When the engineers of the national team helped plan the route, they carefully considered the construction level of this world. They would rather take a detour than design bridges and tunnels.

Of course... even if the construction level and technical content of this kind of railway project are infinitely close to those of the [-]th century, it is amazing enough to repair [-] kilometers in two years. , inhaling exaggeratedly on the spot.

Even the mercenary Jasper, who was hired by Hal to protect the mother and daughter, looked over in astonishment.

Not to mention Mrs. Harrington, who knows everything about Hal, and Jasper, the mercenary who has only dealt with Hal "Razor" a few times, it is hard to believe such outrageous things...

Because she had been a housekeeper for many years as a senior clerk of the Secretary Department of the previous Inadoli regime, Ms. Will has quite a fanatical admiration for the current high-level officials of the city hall-it is really a random pick among these people, They are so much better than Mr. Gerry that I don't know where they are.

Seeing that Mr. Hal's relatives seem to have misunderstood Mr. Hal, Ms. Will, as if feeling that she was not understood by her family, said more positively: "Mr. The railway to the depths of the Tarantan wasteland is not very important to us Rhinelanders. Even if the coal and iron ore in the depths of the Tarantan are not mentioned, it is only the development of wasteland along the railway, and it is unknown how much land can be developed. Farms, ranches come..."

In order for Mrs. Harrington to fully understand the achievements of Mr. Hal, Ms. Will took the public collective farms, collective pastures, and collective breeding farms in Innad and Adler as examples, and introduced the impact of these farms and pastures on the lives of local people. Impact.

"In the past, an egg cost at least one copper coin, but now, one copper coin can buy three eggs; a bag of rye (wheat bran) bread used to cost at least five copper coins, but now it only costs three copper coins; You need to buy [-] copper coins a can of butter to accompany the meal, and now many people don’t need butter, and a layer of corn syrup, or two slices of pickled radishes are no worse than spreading butter.”

"Fried potato chips, potato cakes and mashed potatoes are the second favorite food of our locals now. The first favorite is chicken breasts coated with cornmeal and bread crumbs and fried in oil (that is, the streets of the earth plane Tenderloin)...you'll love both when you're in Inadoli, and believe me, even the fried potatoes and fried chicken breasts from the roadside stalls will be delicious and cheap expensive."

In Ms. Will's enthusiastic introduction, Mrs. Harrington's daughter couldn't help swallowing secretly several times...

After introducing the fresh delicacies that were "developed" under the guidance of the undead after the increase in local agricultural production capacity, Ms. Will, who didn't realize that she was already crooked, enthusiastically introduced several radio dramas launched by the radio station, and generously lent the radio and headphones, let the two guests from Kenya experience the charm of radio dramas.

The next day, when the passenger ship arrived in Newing Town, when Ms. Will disembarked with Mrs. Harrington, mother and daughter, and the mercenary Jasper, Hal's cousin had become close friends with Ms. Will; the two parties agreed to write letters to keep in touch Only then did Hal's cousin reluctantly get on the carriage arranged by the city hall to pick them up.

After waving goodbye to the close friend she just met, Ms. Will couldn't help but cover her face shyly when the carriage drove out of the pier in Newing Town and was completely invisible... This is the first time she has said so much to others at this age if.

"I hope they don't think I'm too noisy."

Ms. Will, anxious to see if the letter would arrive, waved for a cab.

It is also possible to reach the countryside where her family lives by taking a public carriage, but since she needs to make her family value and accept her opinions when she returns to her hometown this time, it is necessary to spend a little more money to rent a carriage and put on a little ostentation.

The little cousin who was leaving in the city hall carriage couldn't help saying to her mother after she couldn't see Ms. Will waving them off: "Mom, although Will is only a few years older than me, she is really amazing. I can understand so many things.”

"Since you like her, then write more letters to her and learn from her." Mrs. Harrington patted the back of her daughter's hand and said with emotion, "Howl can make such a smart and capable lady clerk like this?" Admired... Over the years, it seems that your cousin has also grown a lot."

A few hours later, the carriage drove into the city of Innatrix.

Mrs. Harrington and her daughter, who had been on the road non-stop and passed by Adler, did not disembark to see the local customs. They opened the window curiously and looked out.

The city of Inador was built less than a hundred years ago, and the buildings along the street (compared to cities with a long history) are relatively new, and the road surface is relatively spacious (the ancestors of the Bartleis family already had pneumatic vehicles when they became local lords, and when the city was built It is wider than the traditional urban roads that only consider horse-drawn carriages).

However, these were not the things that surprised Mrs. Harrington the most—there were also many new cities in the southern part of the Kenyan Empire. Compared with those new cities, Inadari City was not particularly outstanding.

What surprised Mrs. Harrington was that the street was so tidy that it looked like the courtyard of a nobleman's house—it was clearly the outer city area just after entering the city gate, and logically speaking, it should be the worst place in a city , There is no garbage piled up on the side of the road, and no urine stains can be seen on the walls of the buildings along the street.

The mother and daughter were looking out curiously, when they saw an old man in a yellow vest coming out of a roadside alley with a long pair of tongs and a dustpan.

The old man with wrinkled face and slightly hunched back lowered his head and looked around, then walked straight to a leaf that fell beside the curb, and skillfully put the leaf into the dustpan.

Mrs. Harrington's daughter said in amazement: "Look, Mom, there is actually a person who picks up leaves?"

The contract worker who drove the carriage to pick up the warden’s family turned back with a smile: “No, Miss, those are the sanitation workers from the Environmental Protection Bureau of the Department of Civil Affairs. Their job is to ensure that the area they are responsible for is clean and tidy, so they pick up the fallen leaves."

Mrs. Harrington was stunned, and said in amazement: "It's actually like this. No wonder, when our family lived in a big city in the north of Kenya, it was not as clean as this place."

"Isn't it?" the contract worker proudly said, "We have more than 3000 sanitation workers in Nadliquan, and the city hall allocates more than 3 gold coins to improve the sanitation of each town every year. The town is the same as the city."

Mrs. Harrington was taken aback: "More than 3 gold coins?! Just to clean the streets??"

"My God, how clean is the lord here?" The young daughter was so shocked that she couldn't speak.

The contract worker naturally said: "It's a good thing that everyone lives in a clean neighborhood, but it's not just for this. The more than 3000 sanitation workers, each of them can get thirteen as long as they work for one year. With a monthly salary of ten gold coins, three thousand families can get the minimum living security, isn't this killing two birds with one stone?"

Mrs. Harrington stared blankly at the contractor driving the carriage ahead of the carriage.

This young man was wearing dark blue overalls (labor protection clothing) made of strong fabrics. His face, neck, and arms were tanned, and his hands were covered with calluses. He did not look like a gentleman of status.

Mrs. Harrington slowly raised her hand to her mouth.

A lady clerk who happens to meet on a passenger ship can know the merits of senior officials, the policies of local lords, and the prices of all collars.

A worker who works as a coachman can say words full of wisdom that shocked her, the former wife of a bourgeois aristocratic wealthy businessman and the wife of the Maxwell family.

——To be able to get ahead in this kind of regime full of talents, her nephew who in her memory would only cause trouble, what exactly has she experienced in these years? ?
