Ark: I adopted Seria at the beginning

Chapter 540 Knowledge changes destiny

Victoria.

There's something happening uptown and downtown.

That is, people of all sizes are going to one place carrying potatoes and wheat at home.

"What are you doing carrying a sack of potatoes?"

"Someone comes to buy grain at a high price. Now the price of a bag of potatoes can be five times more than before! How long will it take if we don't sell it now?"

"What do you eat when you sell potatoes?"

"You are stupid! Who among the rich would eat these potatoes? Why not eat white bread? Hurry up and take out all the potatoes at home. The time to make a fortune is now!"

"I think something is not right. I'd better save the food at home. Everything will not be lost in vain..."

"You deserve to be poor for the rest of your life, and you deserve to be able to eat only one or two potatoes every day! I don't think your family can even have a piece of bread to eat throughout the year."

"I can't even eat bread, but at least I can eat enough."

Most people were dazzled by the sudden luck. In their minds, Victoria's food reserves were definitely sufficient.

The richest land in the whole land lies within Victoria's borders.

How could there be a food crisis when the weather is good all year round and there are no pests or diseases?

It should be that there is some idea of ​​external expansion from above.

Even if there is a war, the people of Victoria will not panic. The reason is that this land is too rich.

There has been no major famine since the founding of the country, and all foreign wars have been basically great victories. Even the most tragic war against Gaul a few years ago was not that bad.

The country is still peaceful, and there is no shortage of supplies.

This is also due to the prevalence of the pound system in this land.

A pile of paper can be exchanged for food, and the fruits of a country's hard work for a year can be exchanged.

It's simply a hugely profitable deal.

But not all ordinary people have no sense of crisis. On the contrary, it is the poorest group of people who do not intend to hand over what they have in their hands to save their lives.

That's the group of people in Xiacheng District.

Including the Gerrit family, a family of eight gathered in their small hut, holding on to the potatoes and wheat flour they had finally bought.

Their intuition tells them that there must be a monster when something goes wrong.

"From today on, all the money we earn will be used to buy food. Even if the price of food has increased slightly, once you have spare money, you must spend it."

Mrs. Griet stared at the six children in front of her, while Griet next to her, the head of the family, looked at her little daughter Susie.

"Thank you for your hard work these days. You are obviously the youngest here, and you have to get up early and work hard every day to take care of your family."

Grit's face looked a little remorseful. He felt that he was not a good father.

He could not give his children a better life, and he could not even pay his daughter's school fees.

"Dad, it's okay. Isn't the purpose of our life in the city to find new hope?"

"Yes, I have received an interview invitation from Scorpio Group. As long as I succeed, our family will be able to go to that paradise in Colombia. It is said that there will be no capitalists or nobles who exploit people."

If you can rely on your own efforts to get an invitation letter, the interview is just a process.

What the Scorpio Group values ​​is ability and technology, and the interviewers will not receive any benefits and will only rely on their own strength to obtain job opportunities.

"Why go to Colombia? Dad."

“I heard from my fellow workers that Colombia is a paradise for workers. As long as one worker works in a factory, he can support a family of five, a car and a pet. It is simply a beacon to the world. ..."

"Although the social welfare there is not that good, it is still much better than our situation in Xiacheng District where there is no guarantee at all."

Huang Cheng. The policy governing Colombia is to provide adequate basic wages and company benefits, but only legal protection and humanitarian support are provided at the national level.

As for social welfare, it is much less than in Victoria, such as unemployment benefits and the like.

Because what this scorpion thinks in his head is that your salary is so high, and if you are still greedy for this little benefit, you will become a loser sooner or later.

Of course, the benefits for accidents such as those for the elderly, the weak, the sick, the disabled, and teenagers are still very high, but other people who can rely on their own bodies and wisdom to earn labor wages should not want other benefits.

Get your salary honestly.

But there is one thing Huang Cheng did very well.

That is, whether people live in uptown or downtown, they receive the same social benefits, but Victoria's high welfare is different.

High welfare only applies to the upper city area, while the lower city area cannot be said to have no welfare, it can only be said to be in a completely free-range state.

Anta of a few patrolling policemen was already the biggest charity to this group of people in Xiacheng District.

Still want social benefits? Dream on you!

Letting corpses rot on the streets of downtown is your destination!

Huang Cheng is not afraid of people from other countries smuggling into Colombia, because smuggling in the world of Terra is much more difficult than in previous lives.

The fare alone was an astronomical figure, and it was unknown whether he could survive the few months without encountering Tiantian and bandits.

What's more, even if you come here, you are basically penniless. Even if the society is naturally very good, it is not an easy task to start from scratch.

Moreover, it is difficult for black households to find a job in Colombia.

But with the recommendation of Scorpio Group, it's different. Not only is the travel expenses free, but work and accommodation arrangements are also included.

This opportunity is very rare. Not only do you need to have good work performance in a foreign company of the Scorpio Group, but you also need to have special skills to get this invitation letter.

Gerrit was very confident. When he came here, he did not completely waste himself and have been engaged in monotonous work. Instead, he relied on his own efforts to read and learn some special skills.

Like soldering a circuit board and passing the exam.

Becoming a junior electrician means that he is no longer a miner.

Everyone was very happy and hugged each other with tears of joy.

Because this means that their efforts have finally paid off.

Their family works hard to give their father or husband the opportunity to study, and the price of going to night school in the evening is not cheap.

Books are undoubtedly valuable, but fortunately they are not expensive.

"Speaking of which, I have to thank this book. If it weren't for the inspiration of this book, I probably wouldn't have made such a correct decision."

Glick carefully took out a book printed on red paper from his pocket.

Turning to page 1 and reading the small text above, he actually burst into tears.

"Knowledge changes your destiny. Spend more time studying, and you will definitely not regret it in the future."

This sentence was like a bright star shining on the old man, rekindling his yearning for life.
