Chapter 124: Peasants and Workers
There is always more money to be made in the city than in farming. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
This is true everywhere.
There are many young people who are willing to work in the city and sell their strength and sweat.
It's half past twelve, and the city has a lunch break, so it's very quiet now, and the bored migrant workers are sitting on the steps on the side of the road.
Albert is also very leisurely, he is like the usual thing, he is doing nothing here, the materials have been bought in the previous [Underground World] store, and the cultivation is of little use for the time being, and the money in the space is no pressure for him for decades, so he and her also sat down on the steps on the side of the road after a big turn.
He didn't feel that he was any different from the people here, he had worked hard with many rural workers back then, and even if he came to this magical world and became a wizard who was different from ordinary people, he could still mingle with these people.
If you want him to go to a high-end place to drink red wine, then he can pretend to be a big-tailed wolf, see that the posture is very real, let him go to the street to nibble on the leek box, he can also squat on the road and eat with relish, for him, everywhere is the same.
Now he wears a very ordinary attire, a big straw hat, a brown vest, blue, some white jeans on his knees, and a straw flip-flop on his feet.
Cecilia was dressed the same as him, and both of them had similar dressing tastes, and they both thought it was appropriate, and they didn't care much about it.
However, even if it is such a casual dress, it looks good on them, so in fact, whether it looks good in clothes mainly depends on the face, like us, if you wear a suit and tie, people will look like nouveau riche.
"Yo, brother, where did you get from?" a peasant worker greeted them, "why haven't I seen you?"
This is a very standard warrior, three times the normal physique, and can reach five times after a forced burst.
"It's from the north. He replied casually, "Look, this is my daughter-in-law." ”
"I haven't been here for a long time, brother, how do you feel here?" "Oh, what else can I do, it's all rotten these days, I don't have to get by, you're in a good situation, my daughter-in-law is by my side, I'm miserable, it's almost the same as not, I can only see each other once a year, do you want to take a look?" As he spoke, the man casually took out a vivid stone statue, "How is it, beautiful?"
"Hey, it's pretty. "It's not as good as you, you can actually soak the alien race, cow!"
Right now, Cecilia was taking a nap, lying in his arms, rubbing around, but she showed off her alien features, her mouth purring, her tail wagging and, according to herself, she would have felt suffocated if she put it away.
"Come on, each family has its own difficulties, what did you do in the morning?"
"What else can it be, move things. ”
In many places, these ordinary people are shining, they are shining for urban transportation, road clearing, building construction, facility maintenance, yes, powerful people are very powerful, but without them, what people wear, what they eat, what they use, will become scarce, and they will not be able to supply the huge production demand.
Like this peasant worker, he is in charge of urban transportation.
They are busy all day long, with little time to rest, and their main job is to get the goods where they need them.
"I had to work all morning, I had to continue in the afternoon, I guess I had to work overtime, and one of my co-workers was sick. ”
Even if they have a strong physique, they are still strong, they are still people, they will be sick, if they are sick, they will rest, in order to complete the extra work, they need to work overtime, this is a common thing, but for overtime pay, they are willing to do this, just to save more money, it is rare to go home during the New Year, and when they return home, they will send the money they saved home, usually speaking, the homes of these migrant workers are more than half a month away from here, less than a month and a half.
"How much money can you make in that month?" "It's a lot anyway, six silver coins." ”
"Yes, quite a lot. "Cut, you're new here and don't know the price. The corners of the man's mouth twitched, "In a year, I really can't save much money, but I earn a lot more than staying in the countryside." ”
Similar to modern society, the life of migrant workers is of course not better, but they still choose to leave their hometowns just for the sake of a better life for their families.
"One day, when I get home, I'm going to build a new house for my family. ”
As he spoke, he pinched the sculpture in his hand vigorously: "A big new house." ”
It can be seen that that is his ideal, if he continues to work so hard, he can indeed save a house, the current real estate price, he will work for about ten years, compared to the total life span of two hundred years, such a payment is reasonable, all the rural people who come to the city, are dreaming, or unwilling to live in a corner, there are many people who stay, and many people choose to go.
Just like the big waves and sand, every year there are countless people who go forward and work hard to live in the city, but they don't just have a house, and most people don't think much about it, they just want to save money for the house like this person, and then go back to their hometown.
This will be the norm until the gap between rich and poor is reversed, and it will only be in the age of industrialization, when productivity reaches a certain level, that everything will change completely.
Next, the two of them didn't talk about ideals anymore, they began to exchange some farming skills, the season of irrigating the farmland every year, and the appearance of their hometown when harvesting the farmland, they chatted happily, they all chatted happily.
Cecilia also woke up, and the three of them chatted happily together, twenty-four solar terms.
The spring rain shocks the spring and the valley day, the summer is full of mangs and the summer is connected, the autumn dew and autumn frost fall, the winter snow and snow and the winter small and big cold. The two festivals per month do not change, and the difference is one or two days at most, six twenty-one in the first half of the year, and eighty-twenty-three in the second half of the year.
Albert remembers very well, it was about fifty years ago, and the large number of mutilations in his memory made the timeline a little blurred, and made those unforgettable faces full of holes, but he finally remembered, fortunately, he didn't forget it, but it wasn't pleasant later, and the friends he made at that time died.
I heard that later migrant workers were finally able to make a lot of money, especially on the construction site, but he was already old at that time, and it can be regarded as not catching up with the good times.
He still remembers that a long, long time ago, he learned the 24 solar terms with a friend from the countryside.
It's like yesterday, and I remember it very well.
