Chapter 376: The Birth of a Journalist I
Early the next morning, Doris did not go directly to the Propaganda Department, but first went to the Ministry of Culture.
She used to work in the Ministry of Culture, and she has been playing in the Ministry of Culture since she was a child, so she can be regarded as an "old man" in the Ministry of Culture and Culture who has been transferred to the Propaganda Department these days, but many people miss her.
"Yo, Doris is back, is the Minister transferring you back?" a woman who was much older than her greeted Doris warmly.
"No, no, I'm here to find Abba. ”
"Your Excellency is upstairs, let's go. Otherwise, you won't be able to find him when he's busy in a while. The woman hurriedly spoke a few words to Doris and left, and now that the Ministry of Culture was busy, she didn't have time to delay.
As Minister of Culture, Clarence has always arrived earlier than the others, so it seems that Doris came relatively late.
"Abba!" Doris had just arrived at the minister's office when she met Clarence, who was reading the latest newspaper of the day. SDF
Seeing her daughter coming to her, Clarence didn't know why, and suddenly had an ominous feeling.
But he still smiled and said, "Doris, what's the matter with coming to Abba? Why don't you say it at home?"
"You're leaving too early in the morning, and I'm still sleeping. ”
"Hehe, Abba is old and sleeps less, unlike you young people. ”
In fact, Clarence is only fifty years old, but on this continent, the average life expectancy of humans is not high, and fifty years old can already be regarded as an old man.
"Abba, I want to ask you for one thing. Doris said a little awkwardly.
"What's the matter?" Clarence immediately raised his vigilance, if Doris made that request yesterday, he would not agree to it anyway, it would not only bring harm to Doris, but also his own family could be greatly implicated.
"Hmph, look at you like that, don't you agree?"
"What do you mean, how can I know if you don't tell me?" Clarence was a little aggrieved.
"I ...... I think...... I want to learn how to drive that magic car......" Doris muttered.
It turned out that he wanted to learn to drive a magic car, and Clarence was relieved.
Recently, the production of magic cars has been decreasing, and almost everyone in the Ministry of Industry is frantically making artillery and cannonballs.
But there are too many powerful people in the imperial capital, the identity is enough, and there are a lot of people who do not spare gold coins, and the order for the magic car has been scheduled for next year, and now the production is small, and it is more and more precious.
Of course, the Craftsman Workshop of the Academy of Magic also has the ability to produce magic cars, and the craftsman's workshop does not have the task of manufacturing artillery, and the quality of the magic cars produced is better than that produced by the Ministry of Industry.
But how many people can get the craftsman workshop of the Academy of Magic to do it? Don't look at the nobility, the nobility is also divided into big and small.
Only those big nobles have enough power, and it is no longer enough gold coins to place orders casually, unless there is a current official position below the marquis, otherwise, people will not even pay attention to it.
And the magic car is a symbol of status, especially for young people, not to mention having a magic car of their own, even if it can be borrowed to drive for a while, it will make countless people envious.
"Hahaha, don't you just want to learn to drive a magic car, no problem, let Eveli teach you, it's very simple, even I learned it in half a day when I'm so old, you must be smarter than me." ”
Yves is one of Clarence's bodyguards, and Doris is the one he grew up watching, so he knows him well.
"Thank you, Abba!" Doris was overjoyed to hear that Abba had agreed to her request so happily, and left in a hurry.
For his daughter, Clarence has a debt of indebtedness, because of Joyce, he had to kick Bernie out of the Ministry of Culture, otherwise, his daughter would not be single until now.
So I heard that I just wanted to learn how to drive a magic car, so I happily agreed, this magic car was configured for him by His Majesty the Emperor, he is the Minister of Culture, although he was marginal before, but he also belonged to the ranks of important ministers, and his status was sufficient.
There was no rule for private use of the bus, and it was reasonable for him to lend his daughter to study, and at most he could ride in the old carriage when he needed to travel.
Doris doesn't have any specific tasks in the publicity department now, so she has a lot of time, and she can even say that she is very free, and after accompanying Bernie to record every day, there is nothing to do.
Now that she has Abba's permission, Doris goes directly to the escort Evely and asks him to teach her how to drive the magic car.
The current magic car is very simple, one accelerates, one decelerates, one steering wheel, plus a device to adjust the reversing, and the rest is some small functions such as adjusting the temperature.
There is a relatively large square here in the Ministry of Culture, and it is time to go to work, and there is almost no one in the square, so you can practice driving casually, and Doris only spent a little more than an hour, and she is already driving well.
In addition to reversing and still needing a lot of practice, there is no problem with normal driving, and even now you can drive a magic car to the streets and alleys of the imperial capital. 51 beautiful
Since the construction team has built all the roads in the imperial capital smoothly, and there are not many cars in this era, those civilians will disperse directly when they see the magic car, so it is difficult for a car accident to happen.
At least until now, except for a few nobles who drove around because they were drunk, under normal circumstances, there has not been a single so-called "traffic accident".
"Hey, Doris, why are you so late today? Bernie is about to start recording!"
When Doris drove the magic car to the Propaganda Department, she was actually late, but her identity was there, and there was no specific task, so even the director of the Propaganda Department, Steward, didn't say much.
In fact, Doris was quite interested in driving a magic car, and it was only because it was time for Bernie to record that she came back to accompany him.
Doris wasn't embarrassed at all by her colleague's jokes, after all, her relationship with Bernie was already a well-known and open secret, and she had long been accustomed to it.
When he came to the recording studio, Bernie was still silently reciting today's newspaper, and when he saw Doris coming, he put down the newspaper in his hand.
"It's late today. Bernie laughed.
Men and women in love are like this, they always want to see each other sooner.
"Hee-hee, I'm going to practice driving a magic car today, and when you're done recording, let's hang out together!"
"Okay, I haven't been in a magic car yet! you drive me!" Bernie was also very excited.
"Well, but I still have to practice a little longer, how about it? Any news for today?"
The news that Doris said was, of course, the news in the newspapers, and Bernie's face began to turn serious when she asked that day.
"News has come from the front line, the water level of the Duk Mahon battlefield has been dropping, and I am afraid that in a few days those huge demonic beasts will attack them. ”
Upon hearing the news that it was Duk Mahon, Doris was also a little nervous.
"Here you go, you see this paragraph, this paragraph is written by the second emperor's uncle Asa himself, and it clearly describes the current situation on the battlefield of Dukmahon. ”
"No, I still like to hear you read it. Doris pushed back the newspaper Bernie had handed her.
"Alright, let's start recording. "He's not reluctant, anyway, it's the same to see and hear.
After almost a week of recording, Bernie was familiar with the job, and asked Doris to turn on the recording equipment and start reading aloud seriously.
Doris also sat at the door, this is a habit she has developed, when Bernie is recording, she must not let others disturb her, otherwise the previous recording will be all in vain.
As usual, since Bernie had memorized most of the paper, everything went well, and in this little or so time, there was not even a single mistake, and it was very smooth to read the whole paper.
After Doris handed over the five discs that had been recorded to the players of the propaganda trucks who had been waiting for a long time, their day's work was completed.
It's not noon yet, and the ones that have just been recorded won't be broadcast until tomorrow, so the rest of the time, the two of them can move around freely.
Of course, Bernie is also full of interest in the magic car, and today Doris drove Clarence's exclusive magic car, of course, to learn it.
Maybe it's really in the nature of men to like these complex machines, although Doris, the teacher, has just learned to drive, but in just half an hour, Bernie is already more fluent than Doris.
"Okay, you should drive in the future, I always feel empty in my heart, and I don't dare to drive fast. ”
"Okay, then you can take the ride!"
Bernie simply loved this magic car, of course his family used to have a horse-drawn car, he used to drive a horse-drawn carriage when he was a child, but how does a horse-drawn carriage compare to a magic car? Whether it is comfort or driving experience, it is not a grade at all.
It wasn't until after lunch at the Propaganda Division that Doris told Bernie the truth.
"Bernie, you promised me last night that you would support me, right?"
"Of course, I support you in whatever you do. ”
"From this day on, I'm going to go to the people who were killed by Joyce, ask them about the situation, and write them all down. ”
Doris looked at Bernie with a resolute look in her eyes.
"I'll accompany you!"
Bernie only said three words, but Doris was very moved.
