Conquering alien worlds starts from the game
Chapter 410
The two-wheeled carriage with the advertisements of the car rental company in Newing Town on the carriage was driving on a roughly refurbished country road. Because the road surface was not paved with gravel, there were ruts of different shades on the dirt road, and the dust was quite large. Big, in order not to get soiled coat, Ms. Weir only dared to open a gap in the car window.
This old-style two-wheeled carriage does not have a driver's seat. The driver can only stand behind the carriage and drive the horse forward from the top of the carriage shaking the reins.
Ms. Will has not seen this kind of old-fashioned carriage in the city for many years. She looked back curiously at the driver wearing a straw hat standing and driving: "It's not that there are small iron-shell carriages for passengers. Are they sold to the outside world, and the car rental company in the town is not planning to change the cars? I remember that the price of these passenger iron-cased carriages is not much more expensive than traditional carriages."
——From the perspective of cheapness and durability, the iron-cased carriage was custom-made from the provincial agricultural machinery factory on the earth plane and refitted with a tractor & tricycle chassis as the frame. It was unexpectedly popular in this world.
After some folks suggested that they hope to purchase from the city hall's chariot department this kind of magic-modified carriage with durable leather, a solid chassis and built-in shock absorption, and it is not so easy to deform even if it is overturned and crashed, let alone fall apart. Orders... This batch of orders from other worlds has revitalized several agricultural machinery factories in Province G, as well as a dozen or so hardware parts processing factories upstream, large and small, which is gratifying.
The coachman apologized with an embarrassed smile: "Our car dealership has already paid the deposit to the car driver, but there are still a lot of people queuing up ahead, and we may have to wait until the second half of the year to arrive at our dealership."
Ms. Will let out an "ah", and then she recalled how popular the small iron-cased carriage was for guests - Du Tata City Hall originally planned to arrange an iron-cased carriage for the listed earl lord, It is faster, more stable and more durable, and saves the effort of repairing the car; there are too many people waiting in front of the queue to buy cars, so they have to use the old carriage copied from Ezekiel's house to make do.
After thinking about it, Ms. Will said: "When the production technology of our Innadali Machinery Factory comes up, the iron-cased carriage may not be so difficult to wait."
Innadali's machinery factory has introduced a mature production line from the earth plane, but due to the quality problems of self-produced steel and the limitation of workers' level, it can only produce some sheet metal parts, hardware parts and technical content with low requirements at present. The lowest hand-held threshing machine, hand-cranked sheller, thresher, feed crusher and other simple equipment.
There is still a long way to go to create a tractor chassis that can compete with the earth plane in quality, or a micro-tiller, rice transplanter, harvester, etc. that can provide blueprints on the earth plane. .
But even with this kind of backward productivity that can't even match the technical level of China in the 50s on the earth plane, the emergence of Inadoli's public metallurgical factory and machinery factory is still an epoch-making change for the local people.
All the way back to the small village where she lived when she was a teenager, Ms. Will saw many people in the small courtyards surrounded by earthen walls, most of which were simple agricultural equipment made by the Inadoli Machinery Factory—especially the [-]-year-old The hand-cranked corn thresher with a height of one centimeter, four supports and a round shape is a must-have for almost every household.
For example, a dual-purpose wheat threshing and shelling machine with a height of 90 meters and a width of one meter, only a few wealthy families are willing to buy it... This thing is similar to the rice shelling machine with a wooden shell that is common in the villages of China in the [-]s Similar, easy to operate and very practical.
Ms. Will went home once a year when she was working in Gerry's family. After entering the city hall, she became busy with work. In the past two years, she only sent money back and didn't have time to come back.
When she came back two years later, Ms. Will found that the village had changed a lot.
There are more farmlands outside the village, and the slopes near the mountains that used to be forests have been reclaimed into terraced fields. From a long distance, Ms. Will can also see many people working on the slopes.
A water mill appeared on the bank of the small river passing through the village. When Ms. Will’s carriage entered the village, she saw several women chatting and queuing in front of the mill. A small row of sackcloth bags and some Baskets, tubs and other tools.
The two-wheeled carriage stopped at the gate of Ms. Will's hometown. When Ms. Will got out of the car with her coat under her hem, the village women who were sitting under the trees by the road and picking beans looked over curiously, and they could clearly see who the "foreign guests" were. Ms. Will all smiled and waved friendlyly: "Is Will from the Reed family back?"
"Hey, Will, haven't you been back for two or three years? Your mother and they miss you very much!"
Ms. Will smiled and nodded with the village women whom she could no longer remember who were who. She was a little puzzled in her heart. She had never been so welcome when she came back before—these village women did not face each other. It would be considered polite to ridicule her as an "unmarriageable spinster" because she never married and had children.
Ms. Will's mother heard the movement, came out of the house, and found Will standing at the door of the house, said "ah", and came out in great surprise: "Look who is here? Will, my good girl! "
Ms. Will subconsciously opened her arms to embrace her mother, and was very happy that her mother welcomed her so warmly, but also quite confused... When she came back two years ago, she was not treated like this!
She still remembers very clearly that in the spring two years ago, four months before the undead appeared in Westham, when she came back that time, her mother just anxiously urged her to enter the door quickly and not stand stupidly at the door, so as not to be caught by the villagers. When I see it, I will give pointers to their home.
It wasn't until she took out the old clothes that Mrs. Gerry gave her that her mother's face softened a little; but she didn't let her stay at home for long, and urged her to go back to work in the city the next day, lest her employer, Gerry, The family is dissatisfied.
But this time, the mother seemed to be a completely different person. She was so enthusiastic that Ms. Will was a little overwhelmed - she took Ms. Will's hand and entered the house, put the luggage for Ms. Will, and hung the coat at the door , and quickly prepared tea and snacks, and kept booing and asking for warmth.
Ms. Will, who was somewhat flattered, gradually understood why her mother's attitude had changed so much after a while.
Not long after she sat down at home, the neighbors came to the door together.
These neighbors who used to laugh at Ms. Will's "can't get married" could not help but envy and look at the city hall clerk uniform that Ms. Will showed after taking off her coat with admiration and awe.
Although they also know to cover up a little bit, and will deliberately turn away to talk to others when they meet Ms. Will's gaze, but in the eyes of Ms. Will, who has seen many kinds of human beings, this kind of disguise is meaningless...
It turned out to be the case.
Ms. Will picked up the cup and took a sip of water, thinking silently.
She would send [-]% of her income home, and she also explained in the letter that she had left Gerry's house to work in the city hall.
Although her income, treatment and social status cannot be compared with that of Mr. Gerry, who once worked as a senior clerk in the Secretary Department—well, only Mr. Gerry before the arrival of the undead—but in the eyes of the country people, she is the same as she used to be. Mr. Gerry is no different.
Ms. Will is also an ordinary person, and of course she also has vanity, but Ms. Will can't be vain due to the misunderstanding of her family and villagers... because she knows very well that this kind of "honor", " Decent" comes at a price.
Sure enough, a roomful of villagers flattered around the corner for a while, and then some people began to inquire and ask if they could ask Ms. Will to help introduce the position of the city hall. Clerks and cadres dare not think of this kind of job, entering the city hall as a contract worker, or Just go to the Environmental Sanitation Bureau to get a place.
When the villagers blushed and asked, Ms. Will's mother stood beside her proudly, staring at her daughter with piercing eyes.
Ms. Will knows that this is the bottom line of her mother judging her ability to use her power to benefit her family by observing her attitude towards the villagers—if even the villagers can be introduced to work as contract workers, then it will be more beneficial for the family Naturally.
It seems that the mother is also very clear... For the eldest daughter who was sent out to work at the age of 14, the bondage of family affection is extremely limited, and if she makes excessive demands rashly, the possibility of being rejected is very high.
Ms. Will sighed slightly.
There have been several incidents in which employees were influenced by their relatives, dereliction of duty or abuse of power. Every time a similar incident occurs, the city hall will report it to various departments, so that various departments can learn from it, and it will also be published in newspapers Alert the world.
Ms. Will remembers very clearly that in the second month she joined the Logistics Department, such an incident happened in Westham. The lord Tuttle Joe was very angry, and personally investigated and dealt with the relevant personnel, dismissed and demoted more than a dozen people , has a lot to do with it.
Mrs. Hank from the Direct Sales Department of the Logistics Department was anxious about this for several days, and wrote several letters asking whether her youngest son, who stayed in Westham, was involved in it, and urged her youngest son to cherish his current job, Don't betray the trust of the Town Hall.
Ms. Will didn't know if her mother knew how strictly Inadoli was checking and controlling the so-called "personal relationship" now, she only knew that... her mother might not care much about her situation in the city hall.
Otherwise, it would be a normal reaction for Mrs. Hank to worry about her son losing her job. It would be impossible to brag about her work at the city hall to the villagers and allow the villagers to come to test her bottom line.
She only cares about whether she can bring more benefits to the family, not whether she is at risk of losing her job... Ms. Will can't kid herself how much her mother cares about her.
Suppressing the depression in her heart, Ms. Will wore a "decent" smile trained by Mrs. Gerry, and calmly told the villagers who wanted to be contract workers at which time they should go to the city hall or the town hall of Newing Town. The department registers, what is the entry standard, what is the assessment standard for the internship period, and never mentions whether I will help to "greeting".
After dismissing the unsatisfied villagers, and turning to face the mother who made Ms. Will feel a little strange, Ms. Will showed the business-like attitude she had trained in the logistics department, and said calmly: "I heard that the family is working Prepare for Alice’s wedding. She is only 17 years old, and it’s too early to get married now. If you feel that Alice is in the way at home, then let her go to the city with me, and take half a year’s evening classes while working part-time , Alice also has a chance to join the logistics department."
Without waiting for her mother, Mrs. Reed, to speak, Ms. Will added: "The expenses in the city are also very high now. It is enough for Alice to send back [-]% of her income, otherwise her living expenses will not be enough. By the way, I am going to apply for a loan to buy a house in the city, and I will not send money back in the future.”
From the age of 14 to the age of 27, for a full 13 years, Ms. Will thought that the money sent back was enough to repay the kindness of her upbringing—since her family accounted for her so clearly, she might as well be shrewd.
Mrs. Reed looked at her eldest daughter in astonishment, as if she couldn't believe that the eldest daughter could talk to her like this.
"no!"
Mrs. Reed vaguely felt that something was getting out of control, and instinctively opposed the proposal of the eldest daughter, but the 27-year-old daughter had already passed the stage of needing to send money home, and most of the children of other families were also in their twenties. She talked about marriage in her early years and stopped paying money to the family after she got married, so after a short thought, she quickly found a point against the elder daughter's self-assertion, and said firmly:
"Alice can't go to the city with you. Your father and I have found a good home for her. Our family has never been a family that will miss appointments. Let Alice go to the city at this time. What will others say about our family? Me and Can your father still meet people in the village?"
Ms. Will looked at her mother calmly.
Country people actually care more about "decency" than city people. This is something Ms. Will has known for a long time... In order to look more decent in the eyes of others and to maintain their face, they don't even mind letting their family members, Even themselves, the living ones.
"It's indeed a bit embarrassing." Ms. Will nodded, first expressing her approval of her mother's behavior of maintaining the family's face - if you want to persuade others, you can't completely deny the other party, this is taught in the internal training class of the city hall Grassroots work experience.
"But if Alice can successfully complete the evening class and get the opportunity to work in the city hall like me, then our family can produce two people who work in the city hall." Ms. Will continued, "Brother's son Jamie is 12 years old this year, right? If the eldest brother and sister-in-law are willing, let Jamie go to a free school in the city earlier, and when Jamie graduates, he will have a better chance of finding a good job in the city."
Ms. Will's mother, Mrs. Reed, gave birth to eight children, five of whom were successfully raised. The eldest daughter, Ms. Will, was the second, and the youngest sister was Alice, who was only older than the elder brother's eldest son, Jamie. five years older.
Except for Little Alice, who was born last, and Ms. Will, who went out to work early to earn money, the other three children of the Reed family are all married and have children.
The mother started giving birth at the age of 20, and she is still desperately trying to have children when she is almost 40 years old. Ms. Will can't understand this kind of hard work, but she doesn't want her little sister Alice to marry in the country like her mother and live this kind of life They only think about the life of having children.
When Ms. Will put forward the hypothesis of "letting two of the Reed family work in the city hall", Mrs. Reed couldn't help being moved.
Alice grew up beside her, and she is more obedient than Will. If Alice can become a member of the city hall like the eldest daughter Will, she will definitely consider taking care of her family more than Will, who is not close to her family.
But Mrs. Reed didn't forgive the disobedient eldest daughter so easily, she just said "wait until your father comes home" in a stiff tone and got up to do housework.
Ms. Will had seen her mother's colder demeanor and was not impressed.
That night, when the entire Reed family gathered, Ms. Will repeated her advice to her mother, emphasizing that "two daughters working in the city hall" would make the Reed family more "decent" in the village and To win the support of the eldest brother by letting his son Jamie go to the city to study - the Reeds are both traditional Rhinelanders, and the Rhineland is a traditional agricultural country that pays attention to the system of primogeniture. Pay attention to.
After more than an hour of internal family discussions, Ms. Will, who has more than ten years of working experience outside the home, successfully persuaded her family members who have lived in the country for a long time, and won a deal for her little sister Alice, who secretly asked someone to write a letter to ask her for help, to leave the country and go to the city. Opportunities for the future.
When crammed into her little sister’s cramped attic room for the night, Ms. Will solemnly told the little Alice, who was so excited that she couldn’t sleep: “Only those who can pass the exam after the evening classes can be hired by the city hall. I can't help you. If you can't put your energy into studying as much as possible, you will probably only be working odd jobs for the rest of your life, or being cheated by some man who can talk nicely, in order to support that man And go work harder to make money.”
Little Alice patted her chest and assured: "Don't worry, Sister Will, I've heard Caroline's story many times, and it's what I yearn for the most to make a career like her. I will work hard and be even more Study hard and don't use your mind elsewhere."
Ms. Will couldn't help but smile on her prim and serious face.
Ms. Will also likes the radio drama "Our Struggle". Compared with those unrealistic love stories about marrying aristocrats or rich people by luck, Caroline, who is diligent in her career, has A value worthy of imitation by girls.
"I'm not saying that I want you to be like me, who are still unmarried at this age." Ms. Will stretched out her hand to touch the soft hair of little Alice, and said softly, "If you meet someone who works harder than you , A good boy who studies harder than you, if he is not married, you can also try to have a relationship with him..."
Ms. Will's hometown has not yet been connected to the wires, and the villagers go to bed very early. When Ms. Will and her sister are looking forward to the future, Mrs. Harrington and her daughter are together in the city of Innerdale. Sitting in the guest house room arranged by the city hall, listening to the radio play "Cady's Farm" with relish.
The radio drama launched by this radio station just two months ago is based on a family in Adler who applied to the Du Tata City Hall to contract a small farm. The reason why this family became the target of the source is that Yes... Next to their farm is the farm owned by the undead.
After attacking Dutata City last year, two small blood alliance players obtained two "fiefs" with an area of [-] mu. The next door to the two "player fiefs" next to each other is the small farm contracted by the Kadi family.
Be neighbors with the undead, farm with the undead, be borrowed by the undead to borrow agricultural tools, and drive away the beasts that harm the crops together with the undead... The Kadi family who dared to be the first batch of contracted farms boldly told all the interesting things that happened not finished.
The undead agricultural experts who went to the countryside to guide the local people to plant, heard the Kadi family mention what happened in their family, and felt that it could be used as a fuss, as a propaganda model for the harmonious coexistence between the aborigines and the (non-national team) undead, so they mentioned their opinions to Zhao Zhenzhen there.
Political commissar Zhao immediately arranged for people to visit and collect materials, and then asked Brother Lowell, who had not left Inadoli at that time, to polish and artistically process the script, and the script came out.
This old-style two-wheeled carriage does not have a driver's seat. The driver can only stand behind the carriage and drive the horse forward from the top of the carriage shaking the reins.
Ms. Will has not seen this kind of old-fashioned carriage in the city for many years.

Suppressing the depression in her heart, Ms. Will wore a "decent" smile trained by Mrs. Gerry, and calmly told the villagers who wanted to be contract workers at which time they should go to the city hall or the town hall of Newing Town. The department registers, what is the entry standard, what is the assessment standard for the internship period, and never mentions whether I will help to "greeting".
After dismissing the unsatisfied villagers, and turning to face the mother who made Ms. Will feel a little strange, Ms. Will showed the business-like attitude she had trained in the logistics department, and said calmly: "I heard that the family is working Prepare for Alice’s wedding.

Ms. Will's mother, Mrs. Reed, gave birth to eight children, five of whom were successfully raised. The eldest daughter, Ms. Will, was the second, and the youngest sister was Alice, who was only older than the elder brother's eldest son, Jamie. five years older.
Except for Little Alice, who was born last, and Ms. Will, who went out to work early to earn money, the other three children of the Reed family are all married and have children.
The mother started giving birth at the age of 20, and she is still desperately trying to have children when she is almost 40 years old. Ms. Will can't understand this kind of hard work, but she doesn't want her little sister Alice to marry in the country like her mother and live this kind of life They only think about the life of having children.
When Ms. Will put forward the hypothesis of "letting two of the Reed family work in the city hall", Mrs. Reed couldn't help being moved.
Alice grew up beside her, and she is more obedient than Will. If Alice can become a member of the city hall like the eldest daughter Will, she will definitely consider taking care of her family more than Will, who is not close to her family.
But Mrs. Reed didn't forgive the disobedient eldest daughter so easily, she just said "wait until your father comes home" in a stiff tone and got up to do housework.
Ms. Will had seen her mother's colder demeanor and was not impressed.
That night, when the entire Reed family gathered, Ms. Will repeated her advice to her mother, emphasizing that "two daughters working in the city hall" would make the Reed family more "decent" in the village and To win the support of the eldest brother by letting his son Jamie go to the city to study - the Reeds are both traditional Rhinelanders, and the Rhineland is a traditional agricultural country that pays attention to the system of primogeniture. Pay attention to.
After more than an hour of internal family discussions, Ms. Will, who has more than ten years of working experience outside the home, successfully persuaded her family members who have lived in the country for a long time, and won a deal for her little sister Alice, who secretly asked someone to write a letter to ask her for help, to leave the country and go to the city. Opportunities for the future.
When crammed into her little sister’s cramped attic room for the night, Ms. Will solemnly told the little Alice, who was so excited that she couldn’t sleep: “Only those who can pass the exam after the evening classes can be hired by the city hall. I can't help you. If you can't put your energy into studying as much as possible, you will probably only be working odd jobs for the rest of your life, or being cheated by some man who can talk nicely, in order to support that man And go work harder to make money.”
Little Alice patted her chest and assured: "Don't worry, Sister Will, I've heard Caroline's story many times, and it's what I yearn for the most to make a career like her. I will work hard and be even more Study hard and don't use your mind elsewhere."
Ms. Will couldn't help but smile on her prim and serious face.
Ms. Will also likes the radio drama "Our Struggle". Compared with those unrealistic love stories about marrying aristocrats or rich people by luck, Caroline, who is diligent in her career, has A value worthy of imitation by girls.
"I'm not saying that I want you to be like me, who are still unmarried at this age." Ms. Will stretched out her hand to touch the soft hair of little Alice, and said softly, "If you meet someone who works harder than you , A good boy who studies harder than you, if he is not married, you can also try to have a relationship with him..."
Ms. Will's hometown has not yet been connected to the wires, and the villagers go to bed very early. When Ms. Will and her sister are looking forward to the future, Mrs. Harrington and her daughter are together in the city of Innerdale. Sitting in the guest house room arranged by the city hall, listening to the radio play "Cady's Farm" with relish.
The radio drama launched by this radio station just two months ago is based on a family in Adler who applied to the Du Tata City Hall to contract a small farm. The reason why this family became the target of the source is that Yes... Next to their farm is the farm owned by the undead.
After attacking Dutata City last year, two small blood alliance players obtained two "fiefs" with an area of [-] mu. The next door to the two "player fiefs" next to each other is the small farm contracted by the Kadi family.
Be neighbors with the undead, farm with the undead, be borrowed by the undead to borrow agricultural tools, and drive away the beasts that harm the crops together with the undead... The Kadi family who dared to be the first batch of contracted farms boldly told all the interesting things that happened not finished.
The undead agricultural experts who went to the countryside to guide the local people to plant, heard the Kadi family mention what happened in their family, and felt that it could be used as a fuss, as a propaganda model for the harmonious coexistence between the aborigines and the (non-national team) undead, so they mentioned their opinions to Zhao Zhenzhen there.
Political commissar Zhao immediately arranged for people to visit and collect materials, and then asked Brother Lowell, who had not left Inadoli at that time, to polish and artistically process the script, and the script came out.
