Chapter 369: Successfully Becoming a Miner
"That's a real problem!" Shiva just ignored this, and now that he thinks about it, this trouble is still unavoidable after all, so the two of them discussed while spreading out the chart, and determined the coordinates of the wasteland on the chart before making a decision: Sojas will mix into the miner ship first, and then Shiva will rush to an uninhabited island not far south of the wasteland to wait, the distance between the two is about sixty nautical miles, with Sogers's ability, he can run so far alone, and after he has everything smoothly to the agreed place, Shiva will take Sogers to fly back to the Black Forest Island。
The plan was gradually perfected under the words of the two people, according to Khiva's previous intelligence, the near future should be the time period for recruiting the next batch of miners, and it should have been a while longer to ensure the accuracy of all aspects of the information, but the next piece of news had to make Sojers act early, Gu Shiva said, the Alonso Empire's army stationed in the wasteland has not always stayed there, they are different from the miners, the miners serve for half a month at a time, and the navy stationed there is a rotation every three months, and a few days after Sogers successfully arrives in the wasteland is the time for the navy to rotate。
Any profession has a blind spot, generally speaking, like the work of stationing in a certain place is always very serious in the first few days, and after a long time, the attitude will slowly relax, Shiva's plan is very simple, is to bet on the luck of Sojers this time, if he can dig up the cursed black diamond before the change of guard, then he needs to face much less risk, even if he fails to catch this time, it is expected.
"Without further ado, let's hit the road tomorrow, by the way, it's better to change your clothes, you really don't look like a miner right now!"
Shiva is right, although Sojes's clothes are a little worn, they are still not something that civilians can afford, and wearing this to enlist will only be closely watched.
In order not to make trouble, Khiva went to the clothing store outside by himself to buy two sets of civilian clothes, the clothes of the Alonso Empire are mainly black, and the clothes of the commoners are generally hooded, if he puts these two sets of clothes in the French Empire, they will only be changed in early spring, but after all, this is not as good as the French Empire, because the sun is not visible all year round, although the latitude of the two countries is about the same, but the temperature is like two seasons.
"Alright, let's change into it!" Back at the inn, Shiva threw one of the outfits to Sojes, who took it and almost crooked his nose.
"I said brother-in-law, are you kidding me?"
Sojes pointed to the shirt and pants in his hand, and muttered angrily, this suit is indeed newly bought, and it has not been worn, but what is the matter with the large pile of bright shoe prints on it?
"Am I that idle?" Shiva rolled his eyes, and Sojeth was instantly furious when he saw this, and threw his clothes to the ground at once: "Then you should buy me a new one! This fuck, I can wear it without makeup!" "You idiot!" Shiva floated in front of Sojath in a flash, "Smack!" and slapped Sojes' head, the latter covered his head and cried out in pain, but Shiva lifted Sojes's ear and said, "Wear new clothes to mine?" Everyone knows that mining is hard work, dirty and tired, and they all go in old clothes, and if you wear new clothes to mine, it is better not to buy them at all!"
"Uh......" Sorgeth muttered, he really didn't expect such a detail, but Shiva deliberately played a trick on him.
Indeed, as Shiva said, many local jobs either have work clothes, or wear an old clothes in the past, just like miners, ordinary miners have miners' clothes, but the ones who go to the wasteland do not, it is an Alonso people know that the environment in the wasteland is not good, although the clothes are not expensive, but there is no need to wear a new clothes in the past?
Picked up the clothes on the ground and dusted off the dirt on them, not to mention, after being trampled by Shiva a few times, this dress really didn't look like it had just been bought.
Since it's a disguise, let's disguise a bit!
"What are you doing?" Shiva froze as he watched Sorgeth's movements.
"Pretend to be an ordinary farmer!" said Sojes, rubbing his hand against the ground, rubbing the dirt on his face, and in a few moments his white face turned much darker and yellower.
"Damn! You're so stupid! There is no sunlight here all year round, and even ordinary farmers have a lot of white skin, don't embarrass me, hurry up and wash it!" Shiva was so angry, he was thinking about whether he should go to the wasteland and snatch the cursed black diamond by force, because now Sojeth feels a little unreliable no matter how he looks at it......
"You didn't say that......" Sorjes muttered, but obediently went to fetch water and wash his face.
The next day before dawn, well, the sky of the Alonso Empire will not be bright in this life, Sojes was called up by Shiva, last night Shiva didn't sleep all night, and went around to inquire about the specific date of the empire's recruitment of miners, today is actually the third day of recruiting miners, because it is close to the location of the wasteland, so this is also the main recruitment area for miners.
"Hurry up, just at the port of Macedonia, change your clothes and sign up, and your identity, you just need to insist that you are a peasant in the province of Roy, and your name can be said directly Glenn, and you don't need to add your last name superfluously, remember?" Shiva instructed.
"I know that the sword and the money are all here, and if I don't get to the designated place after a month, it means that I may not be able to come back. Sorjes said with a smile that was unlucky.
"Hey, think too much, as long as you are smart, at most you can't get the curse black diamond, and it's not enough to lose your life, let's go." ”
"Hmm. ”
Sojes was wearing the clothes he bought yesterday, well, he couldn't tell the old and new anymore, not to mention, after changing his outfit, his temperament was immediately different, plus he deliberately put on a simple expression, it was hard to imagine that this handsome young man was actually a pirate leader.
Following the direction indicated by Khiva, Sojes hurried to the Macedonian port, where a large number of people had gathered, although it was still dark.
"It seems that the civilians take such a call quite seriously......" Sorges criticized in his heart, and ran in the direction of the crowd.
From a distance, it looks like a crowd, but when you get closer, you can see that there are actually several long queues, but it is only because it is too dark and the queue is too long to give the illusion of this.
I can't imagine that there are so many people, so I should be in time...... Sojes was a little worried, and walked to the end of a queue, in front of him was a middle-aged man, as Shiva said, most of the people here have white skin, Sojes also wanted to know some specific situations, so he patted the middle-aged man on the shoulder, with a humble and honest smile on his face.
"Brother, I want to ask, is this a place to recruit wasteland miners?" Even after camouflage, the current Sojes Sojes is still not bad, coupled with the silly smile on his face, ordinary people will not hate him, and the middle-aged man who was stopped by him was not a little stunned, and replied very politely: "That's right, the little brother is also here to apply for miners?" "Yes, the family's land was handed over to the neighbor to rent and plant, and I originally wanted to come here to do a short-term job, but I just heard that the wasteland needs manpower, so let's take a look!" I heard that the treatment is not bad. ”
The middle-aged man did not suspect him, and told Sojes some of the so-called inside stories he knew, and Sojes listened while looking at each other with an admiring attitude, which also gave him a sense of satisfaction and superiority, making him feel that he had seen a lot of knowledge once, but he didn't know that what he said was basically the same as what Shiva had heard......
"Dude, thank you so much!"
"It's nothing! I don't know if I'll have to work in the same place in the future!"
"Yes, yes, if that's the case, then please take care of my brother!"
"Of course!"
The size of the team has not been shrinking, and even if someone leaves in front, one or more will soon be added in the back, and there is a slight uneasiness on Sojes' face, most of which he has pretended, mainly to avoid suspicion.
"Haha, Brother Glenn, it's your first time going far away?" The middle-aged man in front of him also seemed to think that the queue was too boring, and while waiting in the line, he chatted with Sojes with a match.
"Uh...... Oh, yes. "Sojers didn't dare to say much this time, he is not from the Alonso Empire after all, and he doesn't know much about the accents of each province, just these languages of the Alonso Empire are still idle and have nothing to learn from Betty, as for what is taught in the academy? Sorry, Sojers didn't pay attention to it......
Seeing that Sojes was not interested, the middle-aged man at least carried out one-sided chatter, with his identity at most that he was working for people, seeing the noble lady of this family tryst, seeing the noble lady of the family stealing, I don't care if he was real, anyway, he didn't have a door in his mouth, he said happily, the people in front of him were attracted by his content, at the moment, these people chatted, but put Sojes aside, the latter was also happy to be idle, standing quietly in the team alone, someone in front of him left to follow up a few steps, his brain has been running at high speed, not just judging the strength of the garrison on the island, and at the same time, I am also thinking about how to get out of the way after I succeed.
An hour later, Sojers changed from the end of the team to the leader, and the size of the team began to shrink gradually, the provinces along the Alonso Empire have clear regulations, each family must send a labor force every year to participate in the work of the miners, although there are many people in a province, but those service personnel can be thrown away, and the voluntary ones are not as many as imagined, the previous team seems to be lengthy, but with the previous departure plus the rest now, at best, it is only **100 people.
After waiting for less than ten minutes, it was finally Sojes' turn, and an official sat at a table with a copy of personnel information piled up on the table, and Sojes only glanced at it and noticed some of the terms on it.
"Name!"
"Uh...... Glenn!"
"Age!"
"Twenty-two!"
"Origin!"
"Roy Province!"
"Well, it's not far from here!" the official looked up at Sojess up and down.
Sojes showed a little panic as appropriate, and said with a little stammering: "My lord, the recent drought in Luo Yi Province has not yielded good harvests, so I handed over my family's land to my neighbors to rent seeds, and after thinking about it for a while, I wanted to find a job in the coastal area. ”
Although the accent is a little wrong, the official nodded knowingly, there has indeed been a drought in Roy Province recently, as Sojes said, since the land is handed over to others to rent seeds, it means that their family is likely to be a laborer, and it may even be a master who feeds the whole family without hunger, in this case, it is reasonable to come to the coastal area where the demand for labor is larger.
"Okay, since you're from a farmer's family, you're qualified, take it, this is your name tag, go to Pier 7 to report, and the person in charge there will arrange your accommodation!" said the officer, pulling out a small wooden plaque with Sogers' number on it.
"Thank you, sir, thank you!" Sorjes took the wooden sign, showed a grateful expression, and then turned to leave, heading to Pier Seven as the official had said.
Pier 7 wasn't much from here, and it didn't take him a few minutes to reach his destination, where two military battleships were already docked on the other side of the dock, and it seemed that this was the ship that picked up the miners.
When they arrived at the dock, a officer-like person in charge stopped Sojers, Sojers took out his identification card and handed it to the officer, who took it and waved after confirming that it was correct, and a soldier on each side stepped forward.
"Take him to cabin nineteen!"
"Yes!"
Two soldiers led the way, and Sorgeth saluted the officer and followed.
On board, Sorges looked like a countryman entering the city, pretending to look around the structure of the battleship as if he had never seen it before, and let out a few exclamations from time to time, but the two soldiers in front of him did not show displeasure, and at the same time did not react otherwise, because many of the miners who were brought in were in the same situation as him.
Walking into the corridor, the two soldiers led Sojers to the cabin area where the miners lived, but they did not take him into the nineteenth cabin at the first time, but first took him to confirm the dining room and toilets, and then led him to the door of the nineteenth cabin.
"Usually if there is no important thing, it is better not to go to the deck casually, if you are hungry, you can go to the restaurant, there is food for sale, if there is no money, it doesn't matter, three meals a day are timed, as long as there is no waste, you can eat less, there will be a bell notification when you eat, remember?"
