Yu Feng stood in the teleportation array, looking at the situation around him, but did not speak for a long time. Yu Feng's son Yu Cheng also looked around blankly. They left the Confused Mountain Area five years ago.
Yu Cheng was already a young man by that time, and he knew very well what the cities in the Ecstasy Mountain area were like at that time. There was only one expression on the faces of the people there, and that was numbness. You couldn't see other expressions, because there
The people have been tortured by the war and have lost their expressions.
This is their city, and the cities in the Confused Mountain Area all have one characteristic, that is, they are dirty, messy, dirty and messy. This is the characteristic of the cities in the Confused Mountain Area.
Because of the war and the death of a large number of young people, many families in the city require women to go out to earn money to support their families. It is precisely because they have been struggling with food and clothing that naturally no one will pay attention to environmental sanitation, even food.
If we can't eat anymore, who can care whether the ground is clean?
But the city they saw now was completely different from the city in the ecstasy mountainous area they had remembered. This time Yu Feng wanted to do business, so he chose Spirit Snake City, which he was familiar with and where he had done business before.
, Yu Feng knew very well what Spirit Snake City was like in the past, and it was precisely because the impression was so profound that he had an unreal feeling now. He felt as if he was not in Spirit Snake City.
Just when Yu Feng and Yu Cheng were in a daze, a voice came: "People in the teleportation array, please leave as soon as possible. People in the teleportation array, please leave as soon as possible." This voice was very old, but Yu Feng and Yu Cheng
But they were suddenly awakened. They looked towards the voice and found that the speaker was an old man. He was wearing clean clothes. He looked to be in his sixties. His hair was already white. One of his arms
There is none, the sleeve is empty, but on his other arm, he is holding a small red flag, and next to him is a little baby. This little baby looks like he is only a few years old.
, there he was holding a small wooden animal, minding his own business and playing with it.
Although the old man was talking to them, his eyes would pay attention to the little doll from time to time. It was obvious that the little doll must be his relative.
But when Yu Feng saw the old man, he was stunned. He led Yu Cheng towards the old man. When he arrived in front of the old man, he took a careful look at the old man and then said: "Old man
Jiang. Are you Lao Jiang?”
As soon as the old man heard Yu Feng's words, he couldn't help but turn his head and glance at Yu Feng. Then his face was obviously stunned, and then he immediately said with excitement: "My boss, is it you, my boss? It's really you,
When did you come back?"
Yu Feng let out a sigh. He didn't admit it wrong. The old man's surname was Jiang, and he was a worker he hired before. However, because Old Jiang was old, he could only look after the warehouse and other things for him, but Old Jiang was a very good person.
He was responsible, so he followed Yu Feng all the time. Later, something happened to Yu Feng, and his family almost lost all their wealth. Naturally, the clerks in his original store were dismissed. Yu Feng left after he came out, and naturally he has never been seen again.
Lao Jiang, he didn't expect to see Lao Jiang here again.
Thinking of this, Yu Feng couldn't help but focus on the child next to Lao Jiang. This child looked to be six or seven years old. He was a little thin, but the clothes he wore looked good and they were new clothes.
Now I am playing with a wooden carved pony.
Yu Feng knew that Lao Jiang did have a grandson, but his son was already dead. He died in battle after being drafted into the army. When he was still here in Spirit Snake City, Lao Jiang's grandson had just been born.
For a long time, he was regarded as a posthumous child, but life in Lao Jiang's family was very difficult. His son died and his daughter-in-law was not in good health, so he couldn't make much money. Lao Jiang's old man did laundry and mended to earn some money.
, and Lao Jiang earns a little money every month by showing him the warehouse, and the family can have enough food and clothing. Yu Feng remembers that when Lao Jiang showed him the warehouse every night, he would prepare a lot of hay, because at night
When it's cold, Lao Jiang usually crawls into the haystack. At that time, Lao Jiang's face is gray. Although he is only in his fifties, he seems to be in his sixties, and his hair is almost white. He is very pitiful. Yu Feng
At that time, he still took good care of Lao Jiang. From time to time, he would give him some old clothes and some food. But even so, Lao Jiang was never willing to wear or eat the old clothes he gave him.
He would also take it home and feed it to his family, but he was never willing to eat it.
Yu Feng originally thought that after five years, Lao Jiang was probably dead. Whether his family members could survive was really unknown, because in the cities here in the Confused Mountains, people would starve to death every year.
It's not a big deal to freeze some people to death.
But he didn't expect that he would meet Lao Jiang as soon as he arrived in Spirit Snake City, and it seemed that Lao Jiang's life was much better than before. At least his face was rosy, and the clothes on his grandson looked quite new.
.
Yu Feng looked at Lao Jiang, who looked a little excited, and said with a smile: "I just came back, and I didn't expect to see you in the teleportation array right now. Lao Jiang, it looks like you are doing well."
Lao Jiang said with a smile: "Thanks to the master's family, life is much better now. Is this the eldest son? Oh, I haven't seen him for several years, but he has grown up. When I last saw him,
The eldest son was still a young man, but now he seems to be a young master who can take charge of his own business."
Yu Feng smiled and said: "Okay, Lao Jiang, don't be so polite to us. What are you doing? Are you working? Who arranged for you to work here?"
As soon as Lao Jiang heard what Yu Feng said, a smile appeared on his face and he said: "My boss, my job is arranged by the city lord. I get ten silver coins every month. I command the teleportation array here. Every time the teleportation array goes up,
There can't be too many people, and there can't be too many things. And as long as I work here for a few years, I can go home and take care of myself. The city lord's mansion will also pay me a pension every month. Life will be much better.
"
Upon hearing what Lao Jiang said, Yu Feng was stunned for a moment and said, "How about a pension when you go home to take care of yourself? Ten silver coins a month is a lot."
Lao Jiang smiled and said: "Yes, I have heard the adults tell me that my current salary for a month is ten silver coins, but I only get eight. The other two silver coins are for pension insurance and
With medical insurance, when I retire at the age of sixty-five, I will be able to receive a living allowance of four silver coins per month. Although not as much as now, it is enough for me to live on. I can support myself with this money until I die.
If I die, they will pay for the funeral expenses. If I get sick, I don’t have to spend the money myself. The city lord will be responsible for it. This is a great thing. Boss, I think your family should move back to Spirit Snake City.
Spirit Snake City is very different now from before. Even if you sleep with the door open at night, no one will steal anything. If your boss does business in the city, you will get a lot of rewards, which is very cost-effective."
Yu Feng looked at Lao Jiang blankly. He didn't understand anything Lao Jiang said, but it sounded very beautiful. However, Yu Feng still couldn't believe it. From Yu Feng's point of view, the other party might be lying to Lao Jiang.
As for Jiang, he said that he would give ten silver coins a month, but in the end he only gave eight, and then used those words to deceive Jiang. However, Yu Feng also thought that this was nothing. The income of eight silver coins a month was already considered a lot.
It's higher than the wages he pays the clerks in his shop.
At this time, Yu Cheng looked at Lao Jiang with some confusion and said, "Grandpa Jiang, what's going on with that Xiaohui Insurance you mentioned?"
Lao Jiang said excitedly: "This insurance is divided into two types. One is pension insurance, and the other is medical insurance. Pension insurance is simple. It means that some money is deducted from the salary every month, and then the city owner
The government will pay some to the bank, and we will keep it there. After I retire, I can go to the bank to collect money every month. This medical insurance is deducted from my salary every month.
Some money will then be sent to the bank. When I get sick, I can go to the hospital to see a doctor. Then I will take the medical bill issued by the hospital and go to the bank to collect the money. The bank will give me all the money I spent for medical treatment.
It won’t be worth a copper penny.”
Yu Feng understood now, but he was still a little surprised and said: "Is this really true? Lao Jiang, are they lying to you?"
Lao Jiang shook his head and said: "No, absolutely not. No, I had a minor illness a few days ago. After I went to the hospital for treatment, the hospital gave me a note for the medical fee. I
I got the money back when I got it to the bank, and I didn't lose a single copper. This is my old man's first time seeing a doctor for free."
When Yu Feng and Yu Cheng heard what Lao Jiang said, they were both shocked. Yu Feng immediately said: "Lao Jiang, is this true? Did they really give you the money?"
Lao Jiang nodded and said: "It's true, of course it's true. Boss, not just me, most people in the city are like this. By the way, Boss, are you still opening a medical clinic now? If so, you
It's best to move the medical clinic here, that way you will definitely make a lot of money, because there are not many medical clinics in the city, but there are many patients, and several medical clinics in the city are all overwhelmed. If you can
If you come, the city lord will definitely give you a lot of discounts. After a few months of assessment, if you can become a designated medical center of the city lord's mansion, then people like us can all go to your place to see a doctor.
Then your business will be easy to run."
When Yu Feng heard what Lao Jiang said, his eyes lit up. He looked at Lao Jiang and said: "Lao Jiang, do you know what kind of exams are there and what are the tests to become the city lord?
A hospital under the command of the government?"
Lao Jiang thought for a while and said: "My boss, this is actually very simple. As long as you don't increase the price of the medicine, and your medicinal materials are genuine and can cure diseases well, then you can pass the assessment of the City Lord's Mansion and become a person designated by the City Lord's Mansion."
Medical clinic, if your medical clinic has expensive medicines, fake medicinal materials, and even kills people if you treat diseases, then let alone the designated medical clinic of the City Lord's Mansion, you can't even open an ordinary medical clinic, and you will be punished.
Heavy punishment and punishment!"
Yu Feng nodded thoughtfully. Although Lao Jiang said this, he still wanted to observe it by himself and get a better understanding of the situation in the city.
