Wolf King - Chapter 314

Thick rubber-soled cotton shoes stepped on the snow and made a “creak, creak” sound.

Wood, who followed silently behind the clan Hal, once again squeezed his own clothes corner.

Although Wood hadn’t cooperated with the prison guard and worked hard for a year since he was taken captive, fortunately, he also participated in daily labor for working meals, and the Snow Wolf still settled his salary. After Wood’s surrender, the Welfare Department people came to the door, referring to the number of coins he owned, and forcibly “sold” a set of winter clothes to him…

Now Wood is wearing this one: a thick rubber sole high-top cotton shoes suitable for winter travel, a set of warm white cotton underwear, a set of sweater sweaters, a canvas pants, a thick cotton jacket, and a The top of the sheepskin hat can protect most of the brain and ears.

Hmmm… If this set of outfits is for the people of the earth, it will never look familiar-the green army coat and Lei Feng cap are too special!

Rustic is rustic, the thermal insulation of this one is really good. Although it is only white cotton underwear, not a warmer and waterproof sun cloth, it is completely enough for a white bear that is very hardy.

“This set is the most affordable in the Fire City, even if the goblins only need to work for four months, it can be purchased… If it is polar, it is good to be able to afford a hat and a coat. At least this kind will not be snowed. The water-soaked shoes are not at all in the polar regions.” Wood sighed.

Although he is really difficult to understand, the facts are in front of him. The prairie people who also live in the bitter cold are indeed living a decent life than the white bear family!

During this period of time, Wood, who had no money for the head and back of the line, ate all the “minimum welfare meals for non-income people” provided by the cat farms, which was more than the meals enjoyed by babies under the age of 14 of all ethnic groups. A lower grade free meal.

What kind of meal is this? Non-staple food vegetable chowder soup, that is bone sprouts boiled bean sprouts sweet potato leaves small greens Chinese cabbage radish slices, staple food lard gruel porridge, soybean yellow soybean wheat and broken rice porridge add lard, sometimes oil residue When finished, the canteen chef will also pour it in, and add the noodles and the like to the inside.

There is also a plate of pickles…

In this way, if the food is in the polar region, even if Wood is a general, it is impossible to eat every day. In Fire City, it is provided as a minimum guarantee for unemployed people!

Yue Xiong is a bit wealthy, but Yue Xiong’s young people join the army as an auxiliary expedition, and they can’t even eat the minimum guaranteed dishwashing water…

Wood couldn’t help but imagine that the polar regions also offered similar welfare treatment to the clan who had no guarantee of life for the time being. However, he broke his head and couldn’t figure out where the money would come from…

“General, here.”

Hal led Wood to a large house and turned respectfully.

Wood nodded, took two steps forward and held back, hesitatingly said: “Don’t call me a general again.”

Hal immediately straightened his waist and said seriously: “General, you will always be a general of the White Bear family, this will not change!”

Wood shook his head, gave up arguing with this stubborn young man, and waved his hand to signal him to advance.

Hal knocked on the door. After the house came out, “Please come in”, he reached out and pulled the thick wooden door away, and then lifted the fur curtain inside the door. The warm heat came suddenly.

Wood entered the room behind Hal and looked up, and found that this room was very different from the dormitory they lived in: there was no kang or stove, and the house was covered with spliced ​​carpets, and dozens of people sat in a semi-circle and crossed legs On the carpet, opposite them is the snow leopard Arthur sitting behind the small coffee table.

“Take off your shoes and put them on the shoe rack near the door, and sit and warm your feet.” Snow Leopard Arthur greeted the two white bears who had just entered the door with a smile.

Hal was obviously not the first time to come. He took off one shoe and stepped on his feet on the carpet. He also sorted out the shoes placed on the shoe rack and made room for them to put their shoes on.

When I stepped on the carpet made of animal skins and blankets, Wood understood what Snow Leopard Arthur meant by “warm feet”-this room is not without Kang, but the Kang is hidden under the floor!

There were twenty cats, one tiger, ten moon bears, and five black bears in the house. Wood followed Hal to walk between them. The dozen moon bears moved their buttocks friendly and gave way. Greet them to sit down.

After the two white bears sat down, the Arthur chief smiled and said: “Okay, everyone is here, now we will all discuss it. After the spring, we will start work on the No. 1 farm.” She first looked at the Tiger Ted Zhong The account, “Ted, you Tigers are few people now, so you are not busy reclaiming wasteland. For now, let’s just focus on the vermicelli OEM, and take the Bear Clan together to help them troubleshoot the problem. Is there any problem?”

Ted’s tent succinctly: “No problem.”

The Arthur Patriarch smiled and looked at the black bear representatives and the two white bears: “The vermicelli foundry has a high and stable income, but there are more than two thousand of your clan who can’t use magic. It is difficult to guarantee the ethnic group by only one foundry. Benefits. My personal suggestion is that you two groups should try to reclaim one or two farms to test the water. If you join the farmers association under the Huoyan City Agriculture Department, technical support, seeds, and agricultural machinery are not problems. They can be obtained through agricultural loans. The Agriculture Department also takes charge of the unified purchase and collection of agricultural products. What do you think?”

In accordance with the principle of non-interference in the internal affairs of other tribes, the attached bear brains still have a certain degree of autonomy (to what degree the interpretation power is in the hands of Huoyan City, cough!), because the highest chief of the black bear family, Aubrey, is dead. The man, who is still crouching at the caretaker and counting his feet, so the Arthur chief suggested that the Black Bears elect ethnic representatives from labor activists. This labor activist… of course followed the Fire City!

The five black bears with the highest status are only elite warriors, and even non-commissioned officers have never acted. They responded particularly positively to the principle of fair and equitable distribution of work according to Fire City, and immediately nodded in agreement.

Hal was about to talk, and suddenly thought of something, closed his mouth and looked at Wood.

Wood sighed inwardly. It was just one of the three cat farms. It wasn’t yet the Fire City. What he did was so comprehensive and considered for most people. He, who had been a general for a lifetime, couldn’t help but get the idea of ​​Snow Leopard Arthur’s introduction, let alone the idea of ​​living under their hands, not to mention others?

Naturally, Wood will not refuse. More than 400 people of the White Bear family have to live. He who has lowered his head will not make everyone in this kind of place unhappy.

Chief Arthur nodded with a smile, and finally looked at the representatives of Yuexiong: “Except those who are engaged in engineering, those who are loaned to various departments, and those who want to enter the vermicelli foundry, there are 4,000 people who have not arranged. Huo Yan The city’s proposal is that the Yuexiong family should follow our cat family’s establishment of Yuexiong Farm. The construction plan and scale are similar to our No. 1 farm, under the jurisdiction of our No. 1 farm. Building materials loans, seed farm machinery loans Our No. 1 farm will help you solve it, and our agricultural technician will also be responsible for your application. Our Yuexiong farm’s internal affairs are your self-determination. If you can’t solve the problem, you can apply for guidance from our No. 1 farm. The benefits of the farm By the way, I dipped a little light and accepted the Fire City Praise. What do the big guys think? Would you like me to get your light?”

Moon Bear Admiral Andrew, General Bazel and others all crouched at the guards and waited to be returned to the Far East. The representatives were all picked out from the soldiers. After listening to the elder Arthur’s ridicule, a group of Moon Bears were happy, Smiling and obeying the arrangement of Patriarch Arthur.

Wood sitting quietly took a peek at Patriarch Arthur, and then another… Only after listening to this snow leopard for a few words, he found out-compared with this snow leopard, the elders in the moon bear city with their noses facing up You have to throw it!

Chief Arthur finally looked at the cat clan and quipped: “We have no good arrangements here. The newly opened land was not cooked well last year. During the autumn harvest, we all complained bitterly and privately that I was not The whip-slave owner, well, that’s why we won’t open up wasteland or generate income this year!”

Twenty cat representatives couldn’t help but laugh, the bear brains were embarrassed to laugh at the cat family, they all endured very hard-cat family is very careful! It doesn’t matter if they laugh at themselves, outsiders just join in the fun, just because these big cats won’t wear shoes for you!

After easily completing the work arrangement after the Spring Festival, the Arthur patriarch picked up the document placed on the small coffee table and smiled: “No matter the bear tribe and cat tribe, they are now tied to the No. 1 Farm. The No. 1 Farm is ready. Hello everyone, farm No. 1 is not good, no one of us here can have a face when going out. Since everyone is the owner of the farm, then the public funds of our farm in the coming year should also be explained to everyone.”

“Everyone knows that our farms and foundries have to levy 30% of the taxes on the output of Huoyan City. These taxes have not been taken away by all, leaving half of them for our No. 1 farm to operate. funds.”

“Last year, we suffered no public funds from the disaster here. Last year, we received a total of 3,890 gold coins of public funds. The whole cub spent 420 gold coins. Four new townhouses were built on the west side of the square. The budget for public baths and ancillary facilities is 68 gold coins, the cost of cub education, and the budget for new schools is 85 gold coins…”

Talking about a bunch of miscellaneous budget expenditures, when finished, the Arthur patriarch was extremely proud: “Excluding all expenditures in the budget meeting room of the Farm Management Office, we have more than 2,300 gold coins left to dispose of. What about this money? The idea of ​​our management and budget team is to use all of them to build roads, to smooth the 80-kilometer pavement from here to Huoyan City from beginning to end, to cover it with stone loess, and then to grind it well with stone. Construction started when the road was repaired. It is convenient for us to travel to and from the Fire City, and it is also convenient to transport supplies…”

Next, the Arthur patriarch carefully talked about the benefits of repairing this road, and encouraged all the tribes to mobilize their contributions during the construction of the road.

The first time Wood attended the conference as a representative of the White Bear family, the whole person was completely ashamed.

Fire City has money. He knew it when he was locked in the settlement of Fire City last year.

Farm No. 1 also has money, don’t look at the self-proclaimed farm, but in terms of construction, living conditions, material supply, etc., in Wood’s view, it is not much worse than the White Bear City in the home polar region. It is even higher than the White Bear City— People walking out of the street, on the square, on any side road, in any room are all dressed up and covered with red light. This situation is not visible in the White Bear City, or in all orc cities. Can’t see it.

Wood believes that the only thing the prairie people can’t do is that neither the Fire City nor the No. 1 farm has a decent mansion… nor can they see the dignitaries and nobles who cuddle before and after wearing Jin Daiyin.

What Wood didn’t expect was that the No. 1 Farm was so expensive!

Wood, one of the Twelve Generals of the White Bear Clan, couldn’t help but apply the practice of Snow Leopard Arthur to his hometown of White Bear City.

Then he felt very sad, deep sorrow-compared with the White Bear City, the No. 1 farmhouse with less than 4,000 gold coins in a year’s tax must be defeated. But if the tax control of the two parties is compared, Bai Xiongcheng is not even as good as the mud of the No. 1 farmhouse.

“This is not enough money for the elders and the generals to share.” Wood couldn’t help but smile bitterly, his inner sorrow like a river…

Wood in White Bear City is also eligible to distribute the tax. He can be distributed from the elders to two to three hundred gold coins every year.

For many years, Wood, who regarded this gray income as ordinary and generous for buying wine, spices and luxury goods brought by merchants, never thought that this money could be used to build his own hometown and help those in distress. .

Patriarch Arthur explained the benefits of road repairs and heard the new bear brain representatives nodding frequently. They all expressed no opinion. The young man who was born as an auxiliary soldier in Yuexiong representative was also very excited to swear that he would lead the tribe to work hard. 1. Increase the taxation of the farm’s share, and allow the Arthur Patriarch to stand out among the high-rises of Huoyan City.

“I’m so embarrassed to say that, haha.” Patriarch Arthur was a little bit overwhelmed with the enthusiasm of this bear’s head, blushing. “But this spirit is a good thing, regardless of the purpose or idea, Ken is willing to take it. The first step in serious work will definitely result in better results, and better results for yourself, for the collective, and for all of us.”

“Our production labor has yielded, no matter what job or job, every drop of sweat is poured into the general direction of our home construction. More acres of soybean cultivation, canteen 1. The soy products reserve sold by the Ministry of Welfare will be able to make a full point, producing more pounds of vermicelli. Everyone wants to have more pounds of choice when they want to eat vermicelli. And the better our home, the better our days, everyone said Is this the truth?”

The bear brain that was heard was hot in this speech, and Hal who sat honestly beside Wood all the time could not help but shouted “Yes!”.

Looking at this scene, Wood felt a bit sour, a bit bitter in the corner of his mouth, all emotions, and finally turned into a soft sigh.

Yes, the homeland and prairie people value their homeland. In order to build their homeland, they are willing to absorb gray dwarves, centaurs, notorious snakes and goblins, and even humans, as well as the bears that were originally opposed to them.

Their enthusiasm for building homes has defeated the greediness of the intelligent creature’s instincts. Those of them who have the power to control wealth, without any pain, took out the gold coins that could have been in their pockets to build homes.

How can such perseverance and enthusiasm not attract or impress people who can choose to go the same way with them on the same boat?

The author has something to say: Patriarch Arthur: What does it mean to be in your pocket? ! Don’t talk nonsense! When A Li A Yun is dead! !
