Chapter 75: Xiao Ke

There is no need to rush into the confession with the uncle. Although it is a matter of family and life, it is a long-term matter after all.

The main reason is that this person may not be easy to find.

If it was a few days ago, when the situation in Liyue was not so clear, I would have been stationed at Liyue Port just in case.

But now the situation has stabilized, especially after talking to the ore merchants last night, this second phase is almost half completed.

Next, while prices continue to be stabilized, it will be the third stage of the stable period. According to the uncle's temperament of traveling around, there is a high probability that he will not be able to find anyone.

Thinking of this, Ouyang took a piece of white paper from the table and wrote a letter to Guiping at home, asking him to take a look at the recent bills his family had received.

Ouyang's idea is very simple. As long as the bill is still sent from Liyue Port, it means that the uncle is still in Liyue Port.

I remember that the last time I looked at it, I found that the uncle went to Zhutian Fang to drink wine. If the uncle is still in Liyue Port, it means that he can still be found in the Hall of Rebirth.

All in all, the matter is urgent, very urgent, extremely urgent!

but!

It’s not yet necessary!

Similar to treating the main line as a branch line,

Things that suffer from wear and tear do not happen overnight, and there is plenty of time.

Just like the uncle has been worn out, he is not crazy yet.

And I haven’t thought about many things clearly yet,

What's more, the uncle may not know everything.

therefore,

Take it easy!

At the end of Tianheng Mountain, residential area.

During this period, tens of thousands of people arrived, making the residential area very lively.

Tianquan Ningguang ordered a new shipyard to be built for shipbuilding, which not only gave the people here more work options, but also solved the hostility of some local people towards "latecomers" in a disguised manner.

Of course, as a member of the latecomers, Xiao Ke has not been affected by the disturbances from the outside world. He has always felt that he is living a very comfortable life these days.

Every day, he would get up before the wake-up whistle sounded, and after greeting the familiar soldiers in the cooking squad, he would be able to eat two big meat buns first.

This was the most correct thing he thought he had done during this period, and he has always been very proud of it.

When dawn breaks in the sky and everyone is awakened by the whistle of the assembly, Xiao Ke will start the day's work with the crowd.

Yes, he thinks it's a job.

The reason is because they pay 50 molas of wages every day, which makes Xiao Ke, who doesn't know much about ethics, feel that this is a job.

Since arriving here, he has always ignored the Qianyan Army's so-called early selection or "probationary period" and the like, and he has even given up on being a Qianyan Army.

Anyway, he can eat enough here, but the wages are not very high, much less than what he earned from mining in the Strata Abyss.

However, considering that he had free food and lodging, new clothes, and no expenses, he just complained a few times in his mind.

Of course, he started saving money again.

It's not much, five hundred molas are not enough now, but he doesn't care, he still enjoys watching it every day.

Their most recent job is to build houses for those "working" people. After this order was issued, many "military members" expressed that they could not accept this gap.

Obviously he will be a military master in the future, why is the first thing he does after coming to Liyue not to enjoy the prosperity of Liyue Port, but to build houses for those who were also born as miners but choose to work?

This incident caused quite a stir, and even after the people originally recruited for military conscription gathered together in Liyue Port, more people were dissatisfied with this request.

But things broke out quickly and calmed down just as quickly. In just a few days and nights, nearly 10,000 "reserves" were lost. After that, we didn't hear of anyone causing trouble again.

Xiao Ke, who had been watching silently, was disappointed for a long time.

Life is inherently boring, and there are some people who are noisy up and down, which can relieve boredom.

Although he didn't participate in the whole process, it was exciting to watch!

Today he got up early as usual. After getting dressed and walking out of the tent, he went straight to the military tent of the cooking squad.

Qian Yanjun who was standing guard along the way didn't take it seriously when he saw it. Many people even said hello in a low voice after seeing it.

"Xiao Ke, go find Captain Shi. He specially made two big meat buns last night and said they were reserved for you."

"Okay, thank you, brother!"

Xiao Ke showed a clear and honest smile and thanked Qian Yanjun for reminding him. At the same time, he couldn't help but speed up his steps.

The so-called Captain Shi is a small captain of the cooking class. When Xiao Ke first came here, he woke up hungry the morning before and followed the smell to find the cooking class.

Because the Qianyan Army had just stationed here, and the personnel were complicated and confused, Xiao Ke was considered a member of the cooking team and "helped" there.

By the time Captain Shi realized something was wrong, Xiao Ke was already sitting on the ground, completely exhausted.

Of course Captain Shi was angry at first, but when he saw the other person's thin figure, he felt that he was not old. After a careful chat, he was no longer angry. He was a poor kid who just had something to eat and would not be on the line.

From then on, the two became familiar with each other, and Captain Shi also promised him that he could come here to cook a small stove - two big meat buns before gathering every day.

"Captain Shi, I'm here."

"Hehehe, Xiao Ke, here, this time it's a steamed bun with a lot of meat in it. Eat it quickly."

"Hey hey hey, thank you Captain Shi."

Xiao Ke was not polite at all. He picked up the steamed bun and started to chew it. When he took one mouthful, the oil and water inside the steamed bun flowed out. For a while, his hands and mouth were all covered with meat oil.

"Slow down, don't be in a hurry."

Captain Shi looked at it with a smile. Seeing that Xiao Ke was eating well, he said with a smile.

"Xiao Ke, do you want to study?"

"In no mood."

"Huh? Why?"

Being able to read is a good thing, and this is Liyue's universal value.

Captain Shi, who originally expected to get a surprised look from the other party, looked a little puzzled when he looked at Xiao Ke who shook his head decisively.

"Studying can increase your knowledge. If you want to continue working in Qianyan Army in the future, you can advance faster. Why don't you want to?"

"I'm pretty good now. I can eat, sleep, and get paid every day. It's pretty good. Hehehehe."

emmm...

Looking at that honest smiling face, Captain Shi came back to his senses.

The other person thinks he won’t have enough to eat when he goes to school...

Captain Shi, who understood this, was a little dumbfounded, but he didn't say anything else.

He happily watched Xiao Ke say goodbye and leave after eating, without talking about studying again during the whole process.

Nowadays, some rumors of reforms in the military have been spread, but they have not been clearly announced yet.

It is said that many welfare policies will be tried out soon to see the effect.

And along with this rumor, there were also "secret moves" against new recruits.

People under the age of twenty can undergo a preliminary assessment of their character and then submit the report uniformly. Afterwards, they will be assessed by a dedicated person and then sent to school to study.

Captain Shi didn't know Shangfeng's specific thoughts, but he did hold two quotas in his hands. His cooking class was full of men over the age of twenty-five, and none of them agreed with the request, so he couldn't use it.

So he started to have thoughts about Xiao Ke.

Anyway, it must be a good thing. He thought that Xiao Ke was quite good in a simple way, so why not give him one of the places.
