Travel through the 1945 super power construction secret base
Chapter 197 Workers
The early morning sun shone into the room through the window. Father Li slowly opened his eyes and felt an intense pain instantly, as if all the bones in his body were broken apart.
He had planned to get up early yesterday to continue practicing his marksmanship, but his physical condition at the moment told him that he had to put this idea on hold for the time being.
As an ordinary person who had never touched a gun, he fired hundreds of bullets in one breath yesterday. The exhilarating feeling was unforgettable for him, but the side effects that followed were beyond his expectations.
With no other options, he had to choose to stay in bed, and he didn't get up until noon.
When he stepped out of the room, he saw a passenger ship docked at the small pier, with people constantly getting off the ship.
Judging from their skin color and appearance, they are obviously from various ethnic groups in Southeast Asia.
These people were recruited by publicity personnel sent by the new town, who promised an income of at least $7.5 per month, as well as food and lodging.
In this era, such a salary is already very good for many lower-class people in Southeast Asia.
Fortunately, all parts of Southeast Asia are close to the sea, and fishing or picking fruits in the wild can help them make a living.
Despite this, not many people were willing to sign up at the beginning. After all, it takes great courage to go to a completely unfamiliar place.
However, as the news of Xincheng's several victories in wars spread throughout Southeast Asia through newspapers, everyone also knew about a powerful Southeast Asian country that had conquered all the neighboring countries.
At this time, more and more people started to sign up to work, and $7.5 per month was not a small amount.
After these people are recruited, they first have to undergo training and screening at recruitment points in various countries. Many of those who are brave and aggressive, or lazy, are screened out.
The rest of the people waited until the passenger ship came to pick them up.
After lunch, the staff took Li's father and others to the open space in front of the small pier.
Then he said to them, "Go and select the number of workers you plan to employ, and bring them in for registration."
After saying that, he ignored them and walked to a table nearby and sat down.
Father Li walked around in the crowd. Most of the people here were strong laborers. They looked at Father Li and others with expectation and worry in their eyes. Father Li walked around and selected five people who looked more honest.
With the selected people, he walked to the staff table.
Every recruited person must first come here, take out the information card in his hand to register, and enter fingerprints.
Then they have to hand over the photos they prepared in advance to the staff.
The staff is responsible for producing the new city temporary resident certificates on site.
All the materials were prepared in advance, and he only needed to fill in the relevant information as required, paste the photo and stamp it with a special seal.
After all the formalities were completed, Father Li led a few people to the shade of a tree to take a rest.
He tried to communicate with them but could not have a deep conversation due to the language barrier.
Although these people have received some training, they can only say simple words such as "yes", "no", "eat", "my name is..."
After chatting for a few sentences, Mr. Li stopped talking because these people didn't understand Chinese and there was no point in saying more.
There were only about a hundred farmers around, so the selection process was completed quickly.
Those who are not selected must return to the ship and go to the next gathering town to wait for their opportunity.
The staff walked up to the people who were resting and said loudly, "Pack up what needs to be packed up, and we will send you back in half an hour."
Father Li gestured to several people to wait here, then went back into the house and packed his belongings. When he came out again, he had a revolver on his waist, a Garand rifle and an XQ001 rifle on his back, and a wooden box in his hand, which was full of bullets purchased by Father Li.
When Father Li returned to the workers again, the five workers saw the rifle Father Li was carrying, the pistol on his waist and the dagger hanging on his leg. They showed a hint of fear in their eyes and their attitude suddenly became more docile.
Everyone rushed forward to help Father Li get things, but Father Li did not hand over the guns to them. Instead, he only let them take the clothes and bullet boxes in their hands, and Father Li still held the guns himself.
After everything was ready, Father Li brought his people back to the farm.
He found a vacant lot on the farm, built a simple shack with wooden boards and waterproof cloth, and let the workers live there temporarily.
Then Father Li took all the weapons back home and specifically told his wife that these equipment must not be taken out of the area, otherwise the consequences would be very serious if discovered.
This piece of land belongs to a dozen or so farmers and is clearly marked as plot 0163 in the land division of the new city.
It is perfectly legal to possess these guns within this area.
Father Li decided to find someone to build a place that was more suitable for workers to live in.
Although the shacks currently built can be barely habitable, they will definitely not be able to withstand severe weather, such as strong winds and heavy rain.
Therefore, he needs to solve this problem as soon as possible to ensure that the workers have a long-term place to stay.
