Wasteland Development Diary.

Chapter 247 Job Seekers Setting Up Stalls
The Emerald City flew steadily throughout the stratosphere.

After 5 hours.

A piece of land appeared in the misty Dead Sea.

The flying alien began to lower its altitude.

Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, Zhou Yi looked at the city on the ground.

Hong Shun introduced: "Recursion City is a young small city, founded 114 years ago. Its pillar industry is the service industry provided to the outside world, and some goods from other cities are also sold here."

"The main tasks here are the installation, maintenance and repair of various mechanical equipment, as well as the testing and commissioning of some new facilities. Recursion City also provides a variety of professional services to human cities, including sewer construction and maintenance, safety coordination, rescue teams, construction engineering design, asset management, various information services, and so on."

Zhou Yi said: "To put it simply, it is to export services."

"Yes."

"Then we came to the right place to do the recruitment presentation."

"That's right."

Hong Falcon reminded: "However, Zhou, this is just a small electromechanical city with a small population, and there are few high-level professionals. If we recruit here, we will probably only find professionals with basic skills."

"That's enough."

Zhou Yi said.

The Emerald City slowly landed on the ground, creating a small shock wave.

Zhou Yi went downstairs from the elevator and found a mechanical and electrical life waiting outside.

"Welcome to Recursion City."

"I am Sigma from the city's program department. I am responsible for cooperating with your company. I will be the one to receive you throughout your visit."

Sigma is a small kart in black and yellow colors, with the English logo "SODI" on the body and two spherical electronic eyes on the front of the car.

Zhou Yi also waved and said, "Hello, Sigma, take me directly to the labor market."

"Okay. Mr. Zhou, please sit down."

Zhou Yi got on the kart.

So it changed direction flexibly and drove into the city.

The kestrel followed.

Recursion City was built on the remains of an old human city.

The broken reinforced concrete has been restored and rebuilt, and is covered with numerous pipes, valves, cables and metal panels, making it look both new and old.

If Coral Mouth was planned and customized with great wealth, then Recursive City was based on the renovation of the existing environment.

Zhou Yi rode the kart along the street and saw many mechanical life forms working along the way. Most of them were small in size, with many metal patches on their bodies, and it seemed that their economic situation was not very good.

The road itself is quite narrow and has many cracks on the road surface. Some parts of the road have been repaired, but most places remain cracked and damaged.

The labor market was transformed from a farmers' market and is filled with stalls.

The job-seeking mechanical and electrical lifeforms were all sitting in the booths, each with a tempered glass plate in front of them, which displayed their occupations and basic personal information.

Zhou Yi was shocked by this simple and crude way of selling dishes.

He couldn't help but ask, "Sigma, won't the design of the labor market make professionals uncomfortable and hurt their self-esteem?"

"Mr. Zhou, we don't have those extra emotions, so this is not a problem."

The Kart's answer was: "Although the recommended display here may seem simple, it is sufficient to achieve the purpose without wasting unnecessary additional construction expenditure."

“Even for the 50 spots here, you need to wait in line to get them.”

"In addition to face-to-face presentations, we will also publish information on 50 job seekers each day on the city page and recommend them to the outside world through the Jizhan service."

Zhou Yi understood immediately.

This is actually a traffic-biased recommendation.

Accompanied by Sigma, he began to search for talents.

There are many agricultural machinery in the labor market booths.

Just as Tiema said, employment in the agricultural machinery sector is currently sluggish, especially for small and medium-sized agricultural machinery, many of whom are unemployed or about to be unemployed.

Zhou Yi's gaze stopped on one of the booths.

There are three farm machines parked here.

The electronic screen showed that they were a team, belonging to a brand called Levo, all blue.

The three members are the "Oubao M3004-7N" four-wheel drive tractor, the "Gushen GE80S-H" wheat harvester, and the "RG80 King Kong II" tracked soybean harvester.

The introduction states that they are good at plowing, planting and harvesting, and can be applied to crops such as wheat, soybeans, rapeseed, and sugar beets. They all have more than 15 years of work experience, but are only hired in teams.

What Zhou Yi found difficult to understand was that the team's offer was a long-term contract of 100 light seeds/3 years.

All in all, the average annual salary is just over 11 yuan, which is actually lower than that of the brothers in agricultural machinery.

Zhou Yi asked Sigma in a low voice: "Is the agricultural machinery market so bad now?"

"Yes, Mr. Zhou."

Sigma did not shy away from the fact that: "The agricultural market is getting worse, and more cities are using cheap labor instead of agricultural machinery to reduce expenses. After calculations and assistance from the program department, the agricultural machinery workers have to reduce their salaries in order to get a chance to work."

Agricultural machinery pays very little, but they have requirements for supporting facilities, fertilizer and seed costs cannot be reduced, and there are strict basic standards for soil. In addition, they avoid being cheated and do not consider cities with low credit ratings, so the employment scope is getting narrower and narrower.

Zhou Yi checked and found that there were no blemishes on the resumes of these three people. They just had short-term contracts of one year in the past, and most of their employers were human cities.

Their contract renewals were rejected, so they banded together to seek long-term contracts to avoid working hard to lay the foundation for the farmland and then being kicked out.

Zhou Yi walked to the booth of the Leivo team.

He looked at the tractor in front and said, "Hello, Ou Bao, you are the captain of this team, right?"

The blue tractor is nearly 6 meters long, 4 meters wide and just over 3 meters high. It has a sturdy body and many wear and scratches on the outer shell. Not only it, but the other two farm machines also have wear and tear.

"Yes."

Ou Bao's voice was very loud: "Are you Mr. Zhou from the Wasteland Development Company?"

Zhou Yi was curious: "You know me?"

"Of course, you are a big shot now." Ou Bao is better at communication than the agricultural machinery brothers.

"I looked at the Wasteland Development Company's deeds on the city page. You are also an important partner of our city. I think the citizens of Recursion City have paid attention to the alien flight last winter and the bombing threat to the Twin Rivers area."

Zhou Yi smiled and said, "I would like to hire your team. Are you interested in working in the Agriculture Department of our company?"

"My pleasure."

The two parties exchanged a brief exchange and signed the electronic agreement immediately.

Then Zhou Yi asked the Red Falcon to transmit information to it and introduced the company's current agricultural situation.

Ou Bao said: "The two farm machines have already created a suitable farming environment. We will cooperate with them to open up new farmland, plant and harvest. Please rest assured."

Zhou Yi nodded: "You guys don't look like your body is in good condition?"

The captain of the agricultural machinery team said: "There are no problems with our basic functions, but there are some minor flaws. For example, my engine oil is sticky, the taillight of Gu Shen is damaged and cannot be used, and there is also a small problem with the track of King Kong."

Zhou Yi immediately told it: "You all should go and get it repaired first. The company will reimburse your part of the repair and medical expenses."

"When you're done, take the list to Emerald City outside the city and I'll reimburse you."

Ou Bao was stunned for a moment: "Is it really possible?"

"of course."

The other party was a little hesitant.

Zhou Yi knew that this was just a verbal promise, which made them still a little uncertain.

He directly took out the light box, asked the red kestrel, and then gave it 50 light seeds.

"More refund, less supplement, go ahead."

"……Thank you so much!"

The captain of the agricultural machinery team's electronic eyes suddenly lit up: "We will not misuse this money. We will only use it to repair the parts we need. The list can be checked. Please rest assured."

Zhou Yi had no doubts.

Electromechanical life, due to its mechanism, is very disciplined.

In addition, this is also for other job seekers to see, which can be regarded as a small publicity.

The agricultural machinery team immediately left the booth and drove outside.

……

The Ministry of Agriculture has made up the staff.

Zhou Yi continued to look at other mechanical and electrical life forms.

Due to his previous actions, many mechanical and electrical lives began to actively recommend themselves.

"Mr. Zhou, I have 12 years of experience in agricultural machinery..."

"Mr. Zhou, I am good at repairing pipes, especially sewer systems..."

"Mr. Zhou, I will repair the road ..."

……

After some observation and communication, Zhou Yi discovered that there was indeed a reason why they couldn't find jobs.

Apart from agricultural machinery, the rest are city managers, asset management, sewer maintenance, construction engineers... which are completely inconsistent with the current needs of the wasteland era.

Most of them are tiankeng industries in this period, with small demand and biased.

Just as Zhou Yi was about to leave, he suddenly noticed a silent job seeker in the corner.

This one looks like an old fashioned bookshelf speaker.

Music major?
Zhou Yi suddenly became interested.

The microphone master might be able to cooperate with it or react to it, and make improvements in the field of music.

It was displayed on the screen in front of the booth.

This speaker, named "Diamond 9.1", is mostly made of wood. It has a speaker on the top and bottom, and four universal wheels on the bottom.

It stayed quietly in its place.

This electromechanical life is not a musician. His occupation is written as "teacher" in his profile. He actually has 210 years of work experience, making him a genuine veteran teacher.

Zhou Yi was puzzled: "Will this Diamond be unemployed again?"

Sigma next to him said: "Diamond's [Teaching] teaches languages and history, and was once a C-level teacher. But because it was infected with a virus program, it lost a lot of its existing data and had to start all over again... For various reasons, it has now fallen to E-level."

"The electromechanical society is developing very fast. A lot of knowledge has been made into information streams, which can be purchased and obtained through the city page. The advanced ones include the wisdom auspicious cloud of Snow County... Teachers in the traditional sense are no longer needed. Only the expert level is not affected."

"But the biggest impact and damage to it was the virus program, which caused its originally unique voice to become muddy and dark. This irreversible damage also made it difficult for it to improve."

“Plus, Diamond has no machine stack services installed, it sticks to old-fashioned physical connections, and data updates are rare.”

"Fortunately, it is an old-fashioned electromechanical life form, with a simple structure and low consumption. Occasionally, some emerging cities will hire it, but its price is not cheap, and the annual salary requirement is 100 light seeds, so very few people hire it."

Zhou Yi frowned: "Virus program...what's going on?"

"All of this happened before it came to Recursion City, and our records are not perfect," Sigma said.

Zhou Yi walked up to the quiet mechanical and electrical teacher.

"Hello, Diamond, are you interested in joining our wasteland development company?"

The response came from a slightly hoarse mezzo-soprano.

"Do you need me to teach languages and history?"

"Yes."

"But I will only teach the true history before it is tampered with. Can you accept that?"

Zhou Yi raised his eyebrows.

"Tell me."
