When Augustus saw Rory Swann and his cousins, Tychus had just walked out of the door, and two resocialized soldiers in power armor were conducting a routine body search.
It became even more noisy outside the window, and the sound of machines running began to rumble.
Augustus straightened his collar, adjusted his facial expression, put his hands on the table, and sat upright. However, before Augustus could say to come in, four impatient men
Madame Mainho rushed in.
These people are generally shorter than the Tyranids of the same age, only about five and a half to six feet tall. However, each of their skeletons is stronger and wider than the Tyranids, and the exposed body is thicker.
The arms are also full of knotted muscles with exposed veins.
The leader of the Meinhof miners had a cracked upper lip that trembled when he spoke, and a thick black mustache under his big nose. His skin was a little too pale, but his face was full of weather-beaten marks and scratches from sharp objects.
The scars and burn marks after the scab are clearly visible.
The miner's voice was loud and surprisingly loud. When he shouted, it seemed as if a steam train was passing through the office.
The Kemorians of Meinhof do not have much unforgettable hatred for the Tyranids. They only vaguely feel that the inflation and internal economic collapse caused by the war should be blamed on the Tyranid Federation, but in fact they have never
I haven't seen many Tyranids.
What else can I do? I need to eat.
"Are you Foreman August Mengsk? Sorry, maybe I speak with a local accent." The miner said: "I am Rory Swann, you can call me Rory, Swann is okay, but New Abloh
Wen has two thousand Swans."
"My cousin heard that you are recruiting people here, and the salary is not bad."
"Lori Swan..." Augustus whispered the name softly: "I remember you. Swan, I picked you out from more than four hundred applications.
, and someone told you that you can bring some helpers."
Augustus was very familiar with this name. Rory Swann was a talented engineer affiliated with the Renault Rangers in StarCraft. As long as he had a design drawing, there seemed to be nothing he couldn't build.
"You have a first-class mechanic's license. You once converted Kelanis's assault armored vehicle into a tank, using a fossil fuel engine. In addition, you also upgraded the built-in battery of the new Apollonian's autonomous mining drone.
, increasing its battery life by three to five days." Augustus looked at Swann.
"This undoubtedly proves your talent in this area. But at the same time, I am also puzzled. Just from the patent fees, you and your tribe will not have enough to eat."
"You don't understand the situation. Sir...it feels quite strange. Let's call you foreman." Swan shook his head: "The Swan family is a big family. We have many brothers and sisters. For a mine based on
For a large family, the more people who can work in the well, the better. If you have three children in the family, he will have five children. Gradually, there will be too many children."
"Now is the most difficult time for the family. I must tide over the difficulties with my relatives. As long as I still have the strength, I will help others." Swann said: "Unity is the key to the survival of the Swann family to this day. You guys
The Tyranids may not understand, but if I need help, they will definitely spare no effort to support me."
"The Camorian family is much larger than ours, and the bond between them is quite strong. They always like to be lively." Augustus chuckled and said, "I also like children."
"Okay, well...it's great that you can think so now." Swann sighed. He also wondered why this Tyrannic officer not only didn't talk about work, but also talked to himself.
So much, but he didn't dislike this young man with neat clothes and gray hair.
After all, that was not his stereotype of a Tyrannic soldier, the kind of bald Tyrannic guy with scars on his face and muscles all over his body.
"It's not easy for the Swan family to raise so many children. How about it? Have you ever considered changing to a job with a higher salary and a better working environment?" Augustus asked Lisa next to him to move some chairs for them.
, motioning for them to sit down, as if they wanted to have a serious talk. This made Swann and his brothers even more confused.
"You are not yet thirty years old this year, but your achievements are far more amazing than what I just said. Swan, your talent in technology and machinery is actually far higher than you imagined. As long as you hand over
With your resume, any top technology or engineering company will be interested in you."
Young Swan was not good at concealing his joy, and he immediately realized that he had been flattered. He soon understood that Augustus was trying to recruit him: "I will not fight for the Tyrannic Federation's army.
Many of my relatives and friends died at the hands of the Tyranids."
"I think I made it very clear. It's not the army, it's working for me." Augustus seemed to have been prepared. He pushed an open personal terminal in front of Swann and others. On it was the Mengsk family.
"We are in need of talents like you, and as for the salary, I guarantee your satisfaction."
Swann and his brothers took over the personal terminal and looked at it, and they all expressed doubts about its authenticity. After all, they had never seen so much money in their lives.
"My relatives and friends have also advised me to find a decent and high-paying job instead of staying in the mine." Swan thought for a moment and said: "But I insist on staying in the family. Most high-tech companies
They are all in Moria, which is too far from Meinhof, and I don’t want to leave my family.”
"That's right..." Augustus nodded and stopped talking.
Swan thought that Augustus had given up. After all, he might have just said it casually, just a polite word. Isn't that the case with the Tyranids? They are obsessed with cumbersome and useless etiquette, and behave like elegant gentlemen. In fact,
But he is distant and indifferent, and few of his words are sincere.
But then Swann was shocked by what Augustus said.
"I also happen to want to hire a mining family to work for my mining company." Augustus said, "I can hire all of you."
The Swan family is a family of Camorian technology miners with a long history, and they are worthy of Augustus spending a lot of money to win over them.
"My hometown, Kehal IV, is the most prosperous and most advanced planet among the thirteen main planets of the Tyranid Federation. It has a complete and sound social welfare system. Each of you will be able to receive a full pension after retirement." Gusdu seemed to have completely forgotten the purpose of coming to them: "Of course, empty words are not convincing enough. You guys can first settle in Kehal for a while and work for my family's technology company and industrial enterprise. Time, and then we can take the family over."
"If the Swan family moves to Kehal, I can arrange jobs for every adult, and I will be responsible for all the moving expenses. I will even fund the purchase of a piece of land as your new family territory."
