Samuel immediately spent two copper coins to buy a newspaper of the day.That night, the skilled tailor, who was born in a private workshop of an aristocratic family, stayed up all night.

In all fairness, the garment factory treated him well.His income was no lower than when he was a master tailor in his workshop, and the respect he received did not make him feel inferior to others.It's just that the little pretentious glory of serving the nobles is gone, which makes him feel that there is a gap in his heart.

However, a life that is always submissive to others, humbled to the top, and will never rise to the top just because of the humble bloodline of birth, this kind of life will not be yearned for by people.

On the contrary, as long as you are capable, daring to fight, and daring to struggle, you can get the respect that matches your efforts. Under such a system, who can really not be tempted?

In the early morning of March [-]th, the tailor Samuel, who was now wearing black and blue, had breakfast at home with his wife and children.At the dinner table, he took the initiative to say to his wife who had a big quarrel yesterday: "Mary, let Upton go to the Employment Management Office to sign up. The Rennes engineering team will expand its enrollment after the spring plowing, so let this kid try it out." See if you have the ability."

His wife Mary looked at him in surprise: "What are you thinking dear? Do you know how hard the engineering team is? Those guys can't go home twice a year. You want our son to eat like that." suffering?"

Samuel squeezed his hands on the dining table, ignored his wife, and looked at his son: "Apton, don't care what your mother said, do you want to go to the engineering team?"

The tailor's son was very similar to his father, tall and thin, with a fair complexion.The 17-year-old young man who is well protected by his parents is obviously not as self-reliant as a child from a poor family. Although his father told him to ignore it, he still couldn't help but glanced at his mother and said weakly: "I'm not a child. ...I listen to you, Dad."

The cowardice of his son made Samuer secretly angry, recalling the neglect of his son in the past, he was also embarrassed to yell at Upton, restraining his temper and said: "The engineering team is very hard, but it is easy to get ahead. Many important people in Anpu City come from there, and I can name many of them; Alex from the mining company, Kevin from the deli, Jim from the slaughterhouse, Adam from the People’s Army, Annadu Er...Mr. Kevin was younger than you when he joined the engineering team, you see, what is the status of Mr. Kevin, who is only one year older than you, in just over two years?"

The tailor's wife, Mary, lost her voice after hearing the names, and couldn't help casting her yearning eyes on her son; since those people can get ahead in the engineering team, there is no reason for her son to be inferior to others Bar?

Upton was visibly shaken, and turned his head to look at his mother again and again; Samuel was a little annoyed at this look of confidence, stood up and took the newspaper from the coffee table next to him, and threw it in front of his son.

"Look at this, Upton. The people up here are the rank and file workers of the Engineering Corps, and every single one of them will be famous in Hyderside before long."

Frightened by his father's stern tone, Upton lowered his head and dared not make a sound; his sister, Samuel's youngest daughter, was much more lively, jumped off her chair and leaned over to open the newspaper.

"Oh, it's Sister Lydia!" The youngest daughter cried out as soon as she opened the newspaper, pointing to the layout made up of several photos.Upton also seemed to know the name, and subconsciously looked up and followed his sister's hand.

This is a close-up shot of the flood-fighting warriors. The first row is the heroic appearance of the female captain Anna, the second row belongs to Alger, the second-rank fighter in the Lord Earl's corps, and the third row is Lydia. She was struggling to swim across the water and picked up several children from the tree trunk. She was not much stronger than those children. The rain made her half-closed her eyes, holding the crying children with her slender arms, and yelling something , Handed the child to the teammate who responded to her.

Lydia's figure is too slender. Looking at her, who is not strong, holding a child and a woman trudging through the water makes people feel distressed just by looking at her.The last photo shows her pitiful appearance of fainting in the water with red, swollen and inflamed wounds, and being anxiously supported by her teammates. People who don’t know her tough personality don’t know how much it will happen when they see her fragile side. misunderstanding.

A pair of children exclaimed, and Samuel, who realized what was happening, immediately leaned over: "How do you know the people inside?"

Holding the newspaper, Upton was so excited that he couldn't speak: "Dad, have you forgotten? This is cousin Lydia, the daughter of my uncle's family."

The tailor's wife, Mary, also stood up at this moment, and after seeing the pale face in the newspaper, she immediately yelled, "What? Is it really my brother's wild girl Lydia? Why is this dead girl so messed up?" Come on, my God, you can't let our son suffer like this, you hear Samuel!"

Samuel wanted to gag his wife, and shouted loudly, "What the hell are you screaming about? Your niece is a hero in Hyderside now, why don't you scold a wild girl in the street?"

Marie choked, and Samuel gave her a hard look, looked at his son, and said firmly: "I don't force you to go to the engineering team, Upton; everyone can go to the engineering team , I don’t know how many people were blocked outside. Your cousin has only been in the engineering team for a few months, and now she has been published in the newspaper and admired by countless people. Want to be like them A revered hero, or forever curled up under your mother's wings as a good baby? Think for yourself, my son."

After Samuel finished what he wanted to say, he ignored his wife who was clamoring and arguing with him, grabbed his coat and went out.

In Alsop Town, the old mayor took the Amp City Daily, which was a day late, and read it over and over again, reluctant to put it down.

"It's not good, Dad, brother ran away to Amp City—" Phoenix, the daughter of the old mayor opened the thick cotton curtain and ran in, waving a note in her hand, "Brother only left this , this nonsense West, why is he acting so nonsense!"

"Don't be nervous, Phoenix." The old mayor smiled and waved at his daughter, "Come and see this—it's normal for your elder brother to be impatient. That kid has wanted to join the engineering team for a long time."

Phoenix went to the old mayor and sat down next to her father, and while flipping through the newspaper, she exclaimed: "Oh, my God, God is above! Too much, I didn't expect the upstream to be so scary!"

The old mayor smiled and sighed: "Thanks to the adults in the castle repairing artificial lakes, reservoirs, and digging canals everywhere, otherwise it would be very dangerous for the flood to reach us."

"No wonder, I said why so many ditches were dug on Peggy's farm... Thanks to those ditches, the Kirk River on our side didn't overflow and flood the fields, is that right, Dad?" Phoenix Patting his chest, with a look of lingering fear, "In retrospect, the water level of the Tianhe River was indeed higher in those days when it rained continuously, and there were always people watching the water line at Peggy's Farm."

"Yeah, thanks to the adults who thought about us and made so many preparations for the rainy day, otherwise, our town would have turned into the miserable look in the newspapers." The old mayor sighed from the bottom of his heart, with a feeling in his heart A stream of heat swirled in his body, making the old man's eyes red with emotion.

Phoenix, who flipped through the newspaper roughly, turned it over again, looking at every photo and shot carefully.The [-] women's team members made a lot of appearances, and many of them were petite and had obvious feminine features like Lydia.Phoenix couldn't help but linger on these brave women, feeling moved, longing, and admiring.

"...If I also have the talent in martial arts, I really want to be one of them, Dad..." Phoenix couldn't help murmuring in a low voice, her resentment towards her elder brother who ran away without saying a word was already gone. He disappeared without a trace, "Did brother run away after seeing this newspaper? Well, I don't blame him now. If I also have a strong body, I would like to go to Anpu City right now."

The old mayor smiled kindly, and reached out to touch the top of his daughter's head: "Silly girl, the only way to be a hero is to rely on force. Remember what I told you? Hydesy is the most valuable now." What is your title, do you remember?"

"Well, Dad, I've always kept it firmly in mind." Phoenix nodded obediently, "The best way to get a martial arts talent is the engineering team, if not, then at least become a follower of Master Guang Frandi... ...Among them, the most valuable title is no different from the labor model selection in May."

"Yes." The old mayor patted his daughter on the back encouragingly, "Mr. Mullen, the director of Peggy's Farm, is especially respected because he was selected as a model worker last year. As a high-ranking wife, the powers of other people have mutual control and restriction, but the real power of the officials who are evaluated and promoted has always been controlled by Mrs. Rose. She is the model worker selected for the first session. Your respected Ms. Sarina, because of improper distribution of the farm director, she was stopped by Mrs. Rose when she was supposed to be the Minister of Agriculture. Even if she holds an agricultural company , and the Ministry of Agriculture can only be established when there is a suitable candidate for the minister.”

"Another example is John's construction company. Last year, the castle supported all companies to participate in healthy business competition. Only John's family was the only one in the construction industry. The reason was that Matt John was the first model worker."

"Alex Mining Company and Kevin's Deli have always been compared, but in terms of personal development prospects, Mr. Alex has dumped Kevin by more than ten blocks..."

"Among the first batch of model workers, Ms. Sally was the only one who couldn't take the lead on her own due to her own limitations."

"Dear Phoenix, if you aspire to become an amazing woman like Ms. Sarina, then you must remember that obtaining the title of model worker is the gilded gold you must strive for..."

Jiang is still old and hot, and the old mayor with incomplete information channels just pointed out the unwritten unwritten rules inside the castle with a few words.

This seventy-year-old old man lovingly stroked the soft hair of his beloved little daughter, and every word was worth a thousand dollars.The old mayor knew that he would not live for a few more years, and the protection he could provide to his children was coming to an end.The elder son is reckless by nature, the younger son only has some business skills, and the only person in the family who is expected to be close to the center of power is his clever little daughter.

"Compared to other farms, Peggy's farm has developed much slower. It seems that the conditions are harsh, but it can also provide more opportunities. Therefore, dear Phoenix, I will advise you to stay instead of crowding into the city of Amp ...Hydside is an era where women are allowed to stand out. It is not easy, little Phoenix. You have to seize the opportunity..."

The father and daughter talked for a while, and it was only when the lunch break was almost over that Phoenix bid farewell and left.She is now assisting the castle in arranging work-for-work affairs in the town, passing thousands of catties of grain every day, and she is already well-known in Alsop Town.This position was won by the old mayor for her, in order to let Phoenix show her management skills; after the end of spring plowing in April, Phoenix will enter Peggy Farm as an ordinary female worker to work for Bentley Fertilizer company.The salary of the fertilizer company is quite high, but it is also very dirty and tiring. It is not that the old mayor does not care about his daughter, but if he wants to get ahead in the current Hydersay, he must take the most difficult road and let the castle know about her daughter. How capable, how persevering, how hard-working...

The old mayor had only dealt with Fu Youguang for one day, which was enough for him to figure out the context of this young demigod.The path he chose for his daughter is difficult, but there is no doubt that if he follows this path, Phoenix will definitely be able to enter the city hall with a comprehensive and perfect image in the future, unstoppable.

Fist and father love, nothing more than that.

To the east of Alsop Town, a small mountain village hidden deep in the mountains away from human habitation.

This village is located in the south of a mountain range, halfway up a rather steep mountain.More than a dozen families are scattered among the dense forests. People are outside the mountain, and when they look up, they can only see thatched roofs.

A young man with short-sleeved leather clothes in the cold spring weather, his strong arms exposed in the cold spring wind, Diman sandals with no wool on his feet, and short hair like stubble. Jumping from branch to branch, the sensitivity is not at all for professional level walkers and rangers.

"Old man! Old man!"

The young man approached a thatched hut hidden among the trees, and yelled loudly when he was far away. His voice was so powerful that it shook the nearby birds from the forest.

"Quiet!"

An even louder roar came from the thatched hut, a very thick arm appeared at the window, and with a wave of its powerful wrist, a bench was smashed out with mighty force.

The young man stopped suddenly, jumped forward to catch the flying bench, pinched it under his arm, and pushed the door of the wooden fence nonchalantly and stepped into the yard: "Don't hide in the house, old man, I brought There's news about Sister Anna."

"Oh?" With a voice very similar to the voice of the female team captain Anna, a burly man with only a linen blouse on his upper body and well-developed chest muscles came out of the thatched hut with his head down. Rubbing her hands nervously, "How is Anna? What happened to her?"

The young man laughed loudly, pumped his fist vigorously, and said happily, "Elder Sister is amazing old man, everyone in the town is talking about Eldest Sister and the others—"

The giant man was impatient to wait for the young man to talk, so he stretched out his hand and picked up the tall young man like a chicken, and said with a ferocious face, "Okay, okay, here, I, talk, talk! What's wrong with your sister?" ?”

Anna's younger brother didn't dare to play tricks anymore, he honestly took out a newspaper from the pocket, shook it out, and pointed to the tall one with a particularly tall back in the flesh and blood city wall under the huge photo on the main page: "Sister here--"

The giant man grabbed the newspaper and threw his son out with a shake of the other hand.This old man with a particularly scary appearance and a figure wider than Captain Rennes carefully held the paper prints that were too fragile for him in both hands, and stared at It is suspected that Anna's back can't stop watching.

Anna's younger brother got up and reminded his father with a smirk on his face: "Old man, don't just look at the main page, you open it and look at the back, there are so many shots of the elder sister."

Anna's father gave his son a sideways glance, carefully opened the newspaper, and entered the room with his head down.It didn't take long before there was an earth-shattering wail of ghosts and gods in the house: "Oh, my Anna~~~~ My dear daughter, why are you so pitiful!!"

The lethality of Anna's crying is comparable to a sonic-level weapon... The young man who was close at hand seemed to have been hit on the head by some invisible heavy weapon, and his body staggered backwards, almost falling; The young man, whose appearance was five points similar to Anna's, but much leaner and slender, hurriedly ran backwards, only daring to stop when he hid among the trees.

The crying of Anna's father lasted for a while before it gradually subsided. The young man looked around the thatched cottage for a long time before his father bowed his head and strode out from inside.The old man wore a turban on his head, put on a pair of rough leather boots on his feet, had a parcel across his back, and a large cloak on his shoulders.

"Let's go Mike! Follow me into town to see your eldest sister!"

In the city of Batty, although there was light rain from time to time, there were still many citizens standing on the open square, looking at the gate of the city hall.

The upper floors of Batty City were cleaned very cleanly, and only a dozen ordinary clerks of civilian origin survived in the city hall.Now, the castle has not sent anyone to take over the government affairs of Batty City. Apart from the Rennes engineering team, there are only a group of city police officers temporarily stationed in the city hall.

A current city policeman who came from a breeding company, seized the opportunity to enter the new barracks when recruiting recruits years ago, and was not included in the People's Army after three months of training, walked out of the gate of the city hall because of his lack of physical fitness.The dense crowd in the square didn't make this young man feel stage fright or flinch, but he was very calm. After he came out, he stood upright with a snap, his left hand drooped naturally, his right hand was clenched in front of his chest, and his thumb was facing his chest. , gave the citizens a military salute that is common in the world.

The solemn salute of the young man in the city police uniform made the crowd a little commotion, and then quickly quieted down.In the eyes of the citizens, the high-ranking "lords" saluted themselves. At first, everyone was not used to it; but after almost all the people in grass-green uniforms did so, people gradually accepted this "people-friendly" way.

The uniform of the city superintendent copied the police uniform of a certain country in the modern world. Except that there is no big cap, King Sodia, who is also from the modern world, would probably feel more friendly when he saw it.The young city policeman, who was proud of his uniform, had a small suspicious blush on his face, but having done it a few times today, he was used to it.After saluting, the city policeman walked to the other side of the steps, where there was a statue of a nobleman, but now only the base was left. He took out a fist-sized light and shadow stone, adjusted the size of the projection, and placed it on the base. On the way, he saluted the people again, and stepped back quickly.

Public screenings have been held in Anpu City, and Batty City will naturally not be left behind.The magnificent flood fighting scenes have been shown just now, and now, what is going to be shown is the scene of the flood fighting warriors going deep into the disaster area to save the people from the dire straits.

The magnified image is projected on the flat wall of the city hall building. Although it is not as clear as when it is shown at night, it still allows people to see the characters in the image.

In the boundless Qianli Ze Country, only scattered trees and houses emerge from the muddy water.A raft appeared in the picture, and on the raft were more than a dozen members of the engineering team in blue overalls...

The burly Anna jumped into the water, and her robust body stirred up waves.She waved her arms and swam to the cabin that was tightly wrapped in sundries.The waist-thick tree, the washed-up fence, and the messy thorns were torn apart quickly by her powerful hands; she kicked open the wooden door that was stuck in the door frame after being swollen by water, and Anna swam into the house.Not long after, she walked out of the house with an old woman with a gray face, panic expression, and depression on her back...

"It's my grandma, the person he saved is my grandma!" A woman in the crowd exclaimed excitedly.

As soon as the picture turned, several big trees that crossed and fell formed a natural cage, trapping several children in it.The children, who had been soaked in water for a day and a night, had white bodies and black lips, and they were helplessly leaning on the big tree that was stuck to them. Tears were shining in their eyes eager for life. The miserable scene made the citizens who watched the video tighten their hands heart.

Alger swam to the trapped children, and he raised his fist while he was floating in the water, and the beautiful dou qi flowed on his fist, and the thick tree that hugged him was broken by his waist like tofu.

"It's a strong professional, it's a strong professional!" Someone couldn't help shouting, incoherently excited, "The strong professional in the castle... is also saving people!"

Alger, a second-tier fighter, is ten years younger than Schiller. Although his state of mind has been broken through, his strength has not accumulated enough, and he is still far behind the third-tier fighter.But the amazing thing is that Alger, who didn't accumulate enough experience and strength, unknowingly broke through the shackles of strength during the disaster relief, and became the second person to be promoted in the earl's corps after Schill; with him At only 27 years old, I really don't know how many peers I have to shock.

In Anpu City, the city hall with a large number of people diverted out seemed extremely busy.The public's opposition to the land decree became much weaker after the anti-flood video was announced. At the same time, the window of the Employment Management Office and the registration office of the engineering team, which was already busy, were crowded with people and completely flooded the city hall.

Even Fu Youguang had to run over to assist the Employment Management Office to maintain order, and Seeger seemed to be the only one who was idle in the entire city hall building.Well, it just seems like.

"Those walkers are not satisfied with the status quo? Hehe...It's ridiculous, is Daniel the one they want to get close to? Either be the dog of the castle, or get out of the way, don't even think about bargaining."

Sig impatiently threw the document at Mary across the desk, and Miss Mary, who had already practiced, didn't have the slightest intention of resisting, and quickly dodged the attack.

"Those are three second-tier walkers, and they are also well-known in the Tower of Immortality... Well, I was wrong, Earl, please put down the glass, and I will honestly convey your exact words to them." Miss Mary Holding the monocle on the bridge of his nose, he lost his integrity and backbone without hesitation, "Those bandits... no, those civilian armed groups have returned to the border, and I asked them to take some away as you ordered." Gadgets'. Also, I have to ask your opinion on something else, Miss Daisy has recovered, should she be reinstated?"

Seeger played with the beautiful glass, and gave Miss Mary a sideways look, "Why, Daisy doesn't hate me for killing her brother Henry?"

——Can you please be a little conscious of the black hand behind the scenes?

Miss Mary slandered, but she had to maintain a respectful face: "Please be sure to believe Mrs. Lilith's report, Earl. Even if you didn't do anything, Daisy, who realized that her brother Henry was irretrievable that day, originally planned to do it herself How do you think Lady Daisy was hurt?"

Seeger was silent for a while, turned his neck, and gave Miss Mary a sneer playfully: "Mary, you have become more and more arrogant recently. Are you questioning my lack of trust in Lilith, or are you blaming me for not being generous enough?"

Miss Mary was very calm, it was not the first day she had faced this moody and sensitive boss who made it a headache: "Subordinates dare not, respected Earl. You just want Ms. Daisy to reflect on her recommendation to Master Guangda It's not that I have a problem with Ms. Daisy herself because I killed my unreliable brother."

"Tsk." Sig rolled his eyes, and threw the glass aside casually. The unpredictable figure of Daniel flashed, and caught the beautiful teacup newly produced by the glass factory, which was exquisitely crafted like a work of art.

"Women who are too smart are not flattering, Mary." The Earl did not hide the disgust in his eyes.

"Thank you very much for your compliment, Earl." Miss Mary, who had already practiced in all aspects, was flattered and humiliated.
