Chapter 278: Registration Office

"Hmm......"

Seeing that Lao Fang was thinking quite clearly in his heart, Lin Cheng couldn't help but glance at him with some surprise, "Brother, what did you do before?" Don't you talk like an ordinary person? ”

Lao Fang couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Forget it...... Don't talk about the past! I'm just a little minion in the First Fleet now, I can't hold on, and I can't starve! If you are really interested in the black market, you can come here tomorrow afternoon to find me, although we haven't known each other for a long time, but I think you are still quite fated with your brother, just see you go in and have a look! ”

"Is that decided?"

Hearing this, Lin Cheng also felt a little excited, although he could say that there was no shortage of anything now, but the more information he had, the more beneficial it would be for his future actions, so he wanted to grasp all the secrets related to this base!

"That's a must! Brother, although I don't have any skills, I'm not the one who backtracks! By the way, didn't you just say that you were looking for the registration office of the First Fleet? I happen to know someone from the registration office, so I'll take you there! ”

"Yo? Did I accidentally run into the god of good fortune? ”

Two things were solved in a blink of an eye, Lin Cheng couldn't help but feel a burst of surprise, he originally just wanted to casually pull someone to inquire about the situation of the First Fleet, but he never thought that this fishmonger who was found casually would actually have quite a connection, which made him a little unbelievable, when did his luck become so good?

Seeing that Lin Cheng's expression was a little surprised, the old man waved his hand absently, "Pull it down!" If I were really a blessed god, how could I get mixed up like this? It's better to say that our brothers have a fate, and they happened to meet! ”

"Okay......"

Seeing this, Lin Cheng didn't say more, "But you have to take care of that fish for me, I still want to bring it back to make up for my family." ”

"Oh...... Yeah! ”

Hearing this, Lao Fang remembered that his saury had been bought by Lin Cheng, "If you don't say that I have forgotten, don't worry, my old party still has a hand in fish farming, and when I finish registering, I will personally ride to you and send it to you!" ”

After that, the two of them stopped talking nonsense, locked the door and walked in the direction of the First Fleet again.

Returning to the bustling street before, Lin Cheng didn't have the heart to look left and right again, it was already more than four o'clock in the afternoon, he promised Aunt Qin that she would go back before dark, and You Shan had already gone out to inquire about the news all day, and he also wanted to hear if the girl had found any useful information.

Following behind the old man, Lin Cheng and the two first went to the exchange office to exchange five cigarettes for nearly 150,000 blue ocean tickets, of course, such a huge amount of blue ocean tickets must not be convenient to carry with them, and the exchange office has long been accustomed to this situation, and directly helped Lin Cheng handle a 'passbook' printed with the words blue ocean on the spot, and briefly introduced to him where to exchange the passbook for blue ocean tickets.

Then, in the blink of an eye, Lin Cheng, who had changed from a poor beep to a small local tyrant, followed the old man with high spirits and continued to walk deeper into the street.

After a while, the two finally walked out of the crooked street, and came to a small two-story white building close to the sea, behind the small building is the blue bay, a row of magnificent warships quietly moored on the shore, and from time to time there are figures coming over, thinking that it is not the time to go to sea, these people should be repairing the battleship.

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

After knocking lightly on the door a few times, Lao Fang didn't wait for anyone to respond, and walked in directly with Lin Cheng pushing the door.

"Yo? How is it you, Lao Fang? ”

As soon as he approached the room, a man wearing black-framed glasses who looked to be about thirty years old happened to walk out, and when he saw the old man, he was suddenly stunned and asked.

Hearing this, Lao Fang casually pointed to Lin Cheng behind him and introduced: "This is an old brother I just met, his ability is very good, and he is also very righteous!" He's always wanted to work in our First Fleet, so I can't help it, so I can only bring him over to see him......"

"Really?!"

Hearing the old man's explanation, the man's expression suddenly became happy, and he hurriedly beckoned the two of them to sit down, and then hurriedly brewed two cups of hot tea and brought them up, "Come on, buddy, drink a glass of water to moisten your throat first, I'll go and help you find a registration form, you can fill it out casually in a while!" ”

With that, he quickly turned around and walked into a nearby room.

Seeing the attitude of this man with glasses as if he had found a treasure, Lin Cheng couldn't help but feel very strange, and asked Lao Fang with a puzzled face: "What is he ......?"

"Weird, isn't it?"

Seeing Lin Cheng looking at himself with a puzzled face, Lao Fang couldn't help but sigh softly, "Although the first fleet sounds very beautiful, but since recently, there have been fewer and fewer people who have come to sign up, and now, it is already very good to have three or four new people to sign up a day, and there are only a handful of people who can stay in the end......"

Speaking of this, Lao Fang didn't wait for Lin Cheng to ask, and then continued: "As for the reason...... Quite simply, the First Fleet's casualty rate is too high compared to the rest of the work on the base! Although the fleet has tried its best to prevent casualties, the sea is no better than the land, and every time you go to sea, you will inevitably encounter all kinds of accidents! ”

"At the beginning, when the Blue Ocean Base had not yet developed into such a wealthy world, the First Fleet had always been the first choice for everyone's work, because joining the fleet meant that they could eat and drink enough, and even feed their families! But now that it is no longer possible, there are too many safe jobs to support themselves and their families, who would risk their lives to join the First Fleet? Although the upper echelons have realized this and have begun to increase the income and welfare of the fleet members, it is useless, after all, it is the end of the world, and there is nothing more valuable than being alive......"

Hearing Lao Fang's explanation, Lin Cheng understood why this registration office was so crowded, but he still didn't quite understand, "In this case, can the base be forcibly recruited?" After all, these people still have to live on the base, so they don't dare to refuse, right? ”

"...... that doesn't work"

At this time, the man with glasses had already walked out of the house with a brand-new form, and after hearing Lin Cheng's doubts, he explained to him: "You may not know very well, the Blue Ocean Base is different from other military regions, and the people who can come here basically have some backstage, and the current Blue Ocean Base is also supported by these backstage!" If conscription is forced, it can easily cause large-scale turmoil, and now this relatively peaceful situation will be broken in an instant, which is also the last thing those high-level leaders want to see! ”

Hearing the words of the man with glasses, Lin Cheng couldn't help frowning, "But if you don't act if you are worried about turmoil, the fresh blood of the First Fleet will only become less and less, and in the end, these high-level leaders will probably face not only turmoil, but also the problem of national famine!" ”
