Chapter 510: Danny who is afraid to go home
In mid-October, the dormitory area of the Lingbei Machinery Factory. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
More than a year has passed since the factory was built in 640 in the Femon calendar, and the environment of the factory has changed greatly compared to when Danny first arrived, and the original wasteland outside the factory has been leveled, and the new grass grows as beautiful as the lawn of the aristocratic manor. Most of the saplings planted this spring survived, and within a few years, they would be able to grow into big trees.
Outside the door, the girl's laughter was heard, and it was the daughter of a nearby farmer and a factory worker in a private meeting. These days, there are a lot of peasant girls who are frowning at Danny, but I don't know why, Danny doesn't have a good impression of them at all.
Right now, Danny was reading a monthly journal of truth that had just been delivered from Pamplo Schooltown.
A sturdy chestnut-haired young man pushed the door in with a rice bowl, stuffed bread into his mouth, looked down at the monthly magazine in Danny's hand, and said with a flattering smile: "Director Danny, have you seen that article too?"
"What article?" Danny wondered.
"Oh dear, you haven't seen it yet, page thirty-seven, Her Majesty's article!" said the sturdy young man, putting down his rice bowl, eager to help Danny turn to that page.
Danny slapped the guy's hand with a "snap", "You just grabbed the food in your hand, don't stain the book!"
As he spoke, he flipped to page thirty-seven.
The young man on the side pulled the vegetables in the rice bowl and sighed vaguely: "I still think it is incredible when I think about it now, Her Majesty the Empress has been a classmate with us for a year...... Who will believe it?"
Danny didn't say anything, he was attracted by the method of calculating the size of the planet from the perspective of sunlight in the article, although in the Faculty of Engineering, the dean had long said that the world was about a ball, but when he saw the actual proof, he still felt incredible.
You know, since he was a child, Danny was told that the world is a slope, and the slope is heaven at one end and hell at the other. Now it seems that this is all a misunderstanding, there is no heaven at all, there is no hell, and if you go all the way south, you will not reach heaven at all, but you will go around and come back here again.
"Hey!" the guy who was eating couldn't stay idle again, "Director Danny, I heard them say that Her Majesty is in love with the dean, do you think it's true?"
Danny glanced back at him and said, "That's not something we should be concerned about. ā
The sturdy chestnut-haired young man stuck out his tongue, as if frightened by the majesty of the "factory master", but his mouth was still not idle.
"Everyone is saying that this article was written by the dean...... I think that's probably the case. ā
Danny pursed his lips, realizing the possibility, but he wasn't as boring as those guys, he frowned, turned his head, and said, "Isn't it your shift tonight?
"It's not there yet. The chestnut-haired young man grinned and pointed to the clock on the side of the room.
Danny also glanced at the clock, it was just past six o'clock, and it was indeed a moment before the seven o'clock shift in the evening.
"I said, factory director, have you heard? Last month, the Imperial Engineering Academy was established in Coenas, and I heard that all the children of the nobility were recruited. The chestnut-haired young man continued.
"Why, you want to go there and study again?" Danny asked.
"This kind of good thing, how can it be our turn. The chestnut-haired young man smiled and said, "It's just that I heard that Her Majesty the Empress herself is holding classes there." ā
"A good thing?" Danny suddenly frowned, "Have you forgotten what Senior Sister Ellie Manda said? It's a great thing to be able to enter the Fog City Engineering Academy!"
The chestnut-haired young man patted his head vigorously and smirked, "Yes, yes, otherwise, how would we be able to enter the factory?" The girls from the nearby villages have been running here every day since they know that we are paid two gold coins a month. ā
Danny smiled, indeed, the boys in the factory are now very high-minded, and even the shortest colleagues are now having trysts with the prettiest girls in the village.
As for Danny, he didn't even bother to look at the girls.
Thinking of this, Danny couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
"Have you finished eating?" he stood up suddenly, "I'll go to change shifts when I'm done eating, and I'll just take another look, the dean has entrusted us with the production of the spiral micrometer, and we can't let him down." ā
"Don't worry, factory director! I will check the quality inspection! You can go home with confidence." The chestnut-haired young man put down the rice bowl, wiped his mouth, and said with a smile.
Although he didn't have a serious face, he admired Danny, the factory director, from the bottom of his heart.
In the more than a year since the Lingbei Machinery Factory opened, Danny has been the hardest working of all, and he almost sleeps next to the production line where it is put into production. Up to now, every colleague has taken a vacation and returned home, but Danny, the factory director, has not had a day off.
Colleagues who know the director well know that Danny hasn't been home since he entered the Santan School of Magic four years ago, but every month, his salary is sent home.
"With your attitude, I can't rest assured. Danny gave him a blank look, "Remember, all problems must be solved in our factory, and if the product is sent to Fog City and the problem is found again, the whole factory will deduct the salary, including myself!"
"Factory director, let me tell you this, if there is a substandard one, I will eat the unqualified one in front of a hundred people in the factory!
Danny couldn't help but smile, although he had been trying to maintain the majesty of the factory director, he was only a nineteen-year-old child after all, and these colleagues in the factory were almost the same age as him.
That night, Danny walked around the factory for hours, checking the processes at each station until he was sure that everything was correct, and then returned to the dormitory.
Early the next morning, when Danny walked out of the dormitory, the door was crowded with colleagues who saw him off. Everyone had something in their hands, including live chickens bought from nearby villages, beautiful silk scarves brought from the big city by someone I don't know, and even people who stuffed money directly into Danny's hands.
"What are you doing!" Danny frowned suddenly.
"Director Danny, you haven't been home for more than four years, and this little gift is a gift from us to your family. Someone said with a smile.
"Nonsense! put it all away for me!" Danny's face became colder, "Lord Dean handed over the factory to me, not for me to receive your gifts. ā
"But the factory director, you seem to have forgotten, the dean also said that those of us who came out of the academy should be like a family in the future. You see, for more than a year, who of us has not been home, but you have been taking care of the factory and refusing to give yourself a holiday. Besides, it's not worth anything......"
"That's right, it's just some thoughts, factory director, you can take it. ā
"Factory director, I know that your mother has been sick and lying in bed, this chicken will give her a supplement, and we will do our part to help you. ā
Danny's eyes moistened a little as he listened to these familiar and sincere voices. However, in the end, he only picked a few worthless agricultural goods and accepted them, and did not want any other gifts.
Watched by dozens of young people, Danny rode his horse in the direction of home. Four years ago, also on October morning, he had left home and was finally going back.
However, there was a faint sense of guilt in Danny's heart, as his father said, he didn't become a magician, but he didn't go back to farming. Maybe it's for this reason that he hasn't dared to go home.
