Volume 8 Flap your wings! 14 Orcs and Train Drivers 02
The train driver was also replaced, and the gnomes were really not up to the job. If the speed of the train can reach 60 kilometers, they will try their best to run more than 60 kilometers, and they will never stay at 59 kilometers. For example, Ling Meimei once cheekily asked Xu Zheng for an eighth-order demon core, because she thought that the higher the level of the demon core, the more energy there was, and the faster the train would run. As for the price, or whether it is safe or not, it is not in the range of gnomes.
And the height of the dwarf is indeed a congenital shortcoming. Xu Zheng examined on the spot, and in terms of the position of the brake handlebar, one of the dwarfs had to jump on it to get it. And they weren't heavy enough to pull it around, so another dwarf had to drag him down and pull him down hard, and the two little ones could work together to pull the thing.
In this way, how can the train run, not to mention the fact that after the coal is switched to burning coal, the coal workers have to constantly fill the furnace with coal. Let the gnomes who don't have much strength do this, then you have to prepare at least eight to ten gnomes piled on the locomotive to do it, and if you only use two or three gnomes to do this job, it is estimated that before you reach the Cape of Good Hope, these fragile little ones will only be able to get out of breath but not in.
Otherwise, these little will definitely be able to pull the train out of the rails with the crazy energy that Xu Zheng dared to play with when he first mentioned that there was such a thing as a parachute......
As a result, the first train driver audition began, and the first and necessary condition for ranking first was that the height must be more than 1.8 meters!
This condition is a bit harsh, in fact, it is to cut off the idea of small people enthusiastically signing up. The tallest among them, Xu Zheng visually inspected it, and it was estimated that none of them exceeded the square root value of Er.
The audition of the train driver Orson Manor sparked a rush to become a train driver. Almost everyone rushed to Xu Zheng's residence as a temporary registration point as soon as Xu Zheng posted the flyer. At that time, the long queue to sign up was a spectacle.
As a new job, train driving is distinctly interesting and glamorous. New means of transportation bring new feelings. It's a feeling that isn't easy to describe, but it's like a man who always has a twinkle in his eyes when he sees a good car. Instinctively like this iron guy. The wind is not beautiful, sit in the driver's cab and stretch your head out to feel it. Especially when a group of little dolls of all races on the platform look at you with extremely adoring eyes, what else do you need in life besides this? Not to mention that the monthly salary is ten gold coins, which is the highest salary in the manor.
Xu Zheng originally thought that the registration would be concentrated between the human race and the orcs. Outcome. Still, an elegant elf walked in and asked to be a train driver...... Xu Zheng really couldn't imagine the scene when after a day's work as a train driver, due to coal, the beautiful and elegant elf's face was so black that only two green eyes were turning.
In line with the principle of loving all good things, the second principle of selecting people has been added: no one of the elves is allowed to sign up! It is simply a tyrannical thing! It will be struck by lightning!
Then there was the demon clan, who angrily found Xu Zheng and asked why he didn't let the demon sign up for the train driver's test?
Xu Zhengdi's thoughts are the same as not letting the elves sign up. The demon land is really too good-looking. It's too good-looking. In Xu Zheng's view, elves and demons are more suitable for going on the runway to be stars. Instead of driving a train...... Let the handsome man and the beautiful woman go to the train. It was then painted with coal and made it unhuman. Just thinking about it makes people sigh.
But. The demon said in a heartfelt manner. We can work the night shift! Who could be stronger than us? Xu Zheng was defeated. But then it occurred to me that there were still many nocturnal tribes among the orcs. than the wolf clan or something. Then he eliminated the demon land.
The demons and elves were unhappy for a while. When people meet people, they say that Xu Zheng is racist.
Xu Zheng was so bad. It's also called disdain, disdain, you're born too good-looking, boss. Excuse me. It's called jealousy, isn't it......
In a word. The final choice of the train driver is selected between the Terrans and the Orcs. Dwarves? don't think about it. Although Haze clamored to have a good time. And patted his chest and said that he was taller than a dwarf. But he wasn't much taller than a dwarf. In fact, it is 50 steps and 100 steps of laughter. And then the tree family. The result, of course, was unanimously opposed. Let's say they're going to drive a train. An idiom could not be more appropriate. That's called setting yourself on fire!
The process of choosing a train driver is very interesting. Let everyone who participates in the audition be very happy whether they are selected or not. The whole process is like a game, far more than everyone thinks is a serious and serious boring test.
There are four levels in the selection level:
The first level. In the red-green test, Xu Zheng took out a bunch of colorful patterns that had been drawn by a Terran painter to make people identify. These patterns are made up of specks or pieces that may be dazzling at first, but a closer look reveals simple spiders, butterflies, hoes, and so on. Everyone thought this was fun, but they didn't expect it to be brushed down by a lot of people, and none of the canine orcs passed, because they were all color blind.
In the second level, the reaction test, Xu Zheng asked the gnome to make something with six buttons and three foot pedals. Each of the six buttons is six colors. The three pedals are divided into left, middle and right rows, and simple commands are issued by Xiao Chu. Tell you to press or step on which, and you can react correctly within two seconds. It's also a fun game.,Everyone didn't take it seriously.,As a result, the Terran brushed a lot.。 No way, their physical reflexes are far inferior to those of the orcs, and almost all of the orcs who passed the first level survived this level.
The third level, the strength test, is to give you a shovel and shovel a large pile of dirt to another place within the allotted time. In this level, the human race barely qualified, and the beast race won the game.
The fourth level, the memory test, is the most boring, and the candidates each issued a newly released "Aosen Manor Train Driver's Operation Guide", which recorded in detail Xu Zheng's plagiarized operating procedures for train drivers. The conditions for passing the test are very simple, memorize it, and the tester will randomly select the content inside to test, and if you don't make a mistake, you will pass the test. This level is the most rigorous, because the operation of the train driver is related to his own safety, the safety of passengers, and the safety of goods. No matter how good your results are in the first few levels, if you can't pass this level, you can only apologize to tell you that you are not qualified...... After the last level, the orcs who performed quite well in the first few levels were brushed away a lot, and they were really not good at it.
The quick and easy four levels are over, and there are still a lot of candidates left, and the orcs make up more than the human race. In the end, the method of merit-based admission, in which no one had any objections, was adopted, and 30 people were selected.
The first train driver elected thirty people, twelve of whom were Terrans, eighteen of Orcs, and twelve of whom were Wolves. Orcs are really suitable for this, good eyesight, great strength, quick body reactions, and the reaction of limbs is always faster than the brain, far surpassing the dwarf, a group of monsters whose brains are too developed and their hands and brains are not coordinated due to poor physical development. And the wolf clan is suitable for night walking, only to exist in a glimmer, they see things at night is no worse than the demons, which makes the comrades of the demon clan no longer take the night as a reason, and compete to be the train driver who looks very interesting.
Thirty train drivers, divided into two large groups of fifteen each. Each group first calls twelve train drivers, every three people, four shifts, and the remaining one is standby, which can be replaced at any time. Each shift has a full driver, a co-driver, and a boiler operator, and three people work together. The idea of setting up two more locomotives is to make one more locomotive, so that when one breaks down or the task is heavy, the other can be ready to work with the equipped train driver.
Like the Defenders, the train drivers have new uniforms. The new uniforms were far less exposed than the Protector suits, they protected the entire body of the people in the suits, and the whole was covered with low-level magic arrays mixed with wind and ice, which could protect them in case of a boiler accident. In addition, each person was given a small sign indicating their name, race, and position, which was bordered with gold, which was very gorgeous.
The Terrans liked the train driver's uniform almost at first sight, while the Orcs were a little resistant, they were used to running around with only a fur skirt. But when they put it on for the first time, because of the amazing eyes of the other friends brought by its straight lines, and when they saw the expressions of the little dolls' eyes shining with adoration and drooling, all the orc drivers felt that they were in great spirits, and the little itching and discomfort caused by putting on the clothes was completely ignored.
As a result, there was often a stuffed wolf head sticking out of the train from Orson Manor to West Good Wang, well, and perhaps other animal heads, depending on which category the orcs belonged to. The ones with a better level of transformation have a human face, but most of the time they still like to drive the train in a half-human, half-beast combat form, because they can play better this way. So, if you see a beast's head sticking out of a locomotive, or an orc in a nice outfit jumping out of a locomotive, don't be surprised, it's an orc train driver, a very good train driver. Their trains run well, smoothly, and safely.
Since then, a new profession has emerged on the continent of Arris, train drivers. And the preference for the way of thinking of the beasts has been solidified as an unwritten tradition, and it has continued. It can be said that the appearance of the train not only changed the mode of long-distance transportation and travel of Aris, but also strengthened the status of the orcs, a subhuman race, and allowed them to enter the society of Aris Continent to work in a fair and open manner.
