Liyue Taoist of the original god

A little further back in time, when the sun had just risen in the early morning and Beidou people were starting to load goods for foreign merchants, a long team was walking on the official road from Lisha suburb to Liyue Port.

They are miners who are about to go to Liyue Port to live.

The number of people is small, only more than 30,000, and most of the redundant miners due to the sealing of the layered rock abyss have been absorbed by Keqing.

Among the more than 30,000 people, more than half were selected to join the Qianyan Army. Some of the rest went to the docks to work as workers or sailors, and some went to the docks to learn skills and become workers.

It can be said that Liyue as a whole has tried its best to respond to this incident. Only about a thousand people received subsidies from Ningguangfa and chose to go to Liyue Port to make a living on their own.

As this team advanced, they also quietly and spontaneously divided themselves into groups, roughly divided into three types: those who joined the army, those who worked, and those who received money.

There is no clear-cut barrier between the three, but when walking, eating, and resting, they will subconsciously get together with those they consider "the same kind".

Among them, those who join the army look down on those who work and those who get paid.

Those who work envy those who join the army, and they despise those who get paid.

Those who get money don't dare to mess with those who join the army, but they think those who choose to work are the stupidest.

The reason for this situation is very simple: the amount of the subsidy this time is very high.

Not to mention the one-time payment of 100,000 molas, there will also be a living allowance of 20,000 molas per month for the next six months, which means that there is no need to work, and a total of 220,000 molas will be paid in half a year.

Compared with those who receive money, others only have a monthly subsidy of 10,000 molas, which is relatively small.

"These idiots want to work in Liyue Port and are afraid of not being able to find a job? They don't choose to take the one with more money. They will lose to death."

"That's right, it's a pity that I wasn't selected to join the Qianyan Army, otherwise I would be willing to take less."

"Forget it, it's all fate. Out of the 800,000 people, there are less than 20,000 people selected. It shows that Qianyan Army is not easy to be a member of."

"I just can't stand the smug look of those who were selected. Maybe you haven't seen it, but some of them changed their spirit after being selected. They really thought they were a person. How hateful!

"

"Okay, just say a few words. They will become military bosses in the future. We can't afford to offend them. I took the money this time and found a job to live my own life. Anyway, in the future, we will be the same. Don't be angry.

No offense."

Different from the people who get money here, the chat between those who choose to work is a different story.

"Tell me, is our choice a little hasty?"

Someone in the crowd asked a question and added something.

"After all, it's one hundred thousand molas, and the monthly subsidy from now on will be twice as high as ours. I feel a bit shortchanged."

"What, you regret it?"

Someone started a conversation, and someone else naturally followed up. A middle-aged man over thirty years old replied with an unclear meaning.

As the news of the one-time subsidy spread, many people who chose to arrange their jobs gradually became a little shaken.

Of course they first wanted to join the Qianyan Army, but since they have not been selected now, many people began to feel a little uncomfortable when they saw the group of people who chose to take the money showing off the 100,000 Mora they had already obtained.

"It's not that I regret it, I just think what they said is right. Can I still find a job in Liyue Port?

Although I have never been there, they say that Liyue Port is prosperous, and countless foreign businessmen come here to do business every day. I think there will be no shortage of job opportunities in such a big city, right?"

"Then think about it carefully, why did Qixing give us this choice? If jobs are really so easy to find, wouldn't it be the end of the world if we just pay them? Why give us this choice?"

"Didn't the people who took the money say they wanted to save some money on distributing subsidies?"

"Hahaha... You also said that you have never been to Liyue Port, so if you are not familiar with the place, how can you be really sure that you can find a job well?"

"Well, everyone is saying that Liyue Port is extremely prosperous and full of opportunities. It can't be false, right? After all, adding up, there are 220,000 Mora, and they got it for nothing!"

"I won't stop you. Anyway, Qian Yanjun, who is leading the team, has already said that those of us who choose to work will have the opportunity to choose again before arriving at Liyue Port. Anyway, I want stability, and Qixing is willing to arrange a job for me.

I’ll choose this.”

The two stopped talking, but the people walking around them listened silently.

Just like what the middle-aged man said, if jobs in Liyue Port were so easy to find now, then Qixing wouldn't give them such a choice.

The reason that supports them not to change their choice now is this.

Everyone has heard about the prosperity of Liyue Port since childhood, but few people have seen what it is like.

In the silence, another person spoke.

"Forget it, I won't change it. After so many years, at least there has never been a case where Qixing would do anything that harmed our people. I choose to believe Qixing."

"Come on, although I won't change it, I saw it with my eyes the day the Layer Rock Abyss was sealed. Now Tianshu Star is a disabled person in a wheelchair. I don't feel at ease. I'll wait and see."

"That's wrong of you. How can you judge a book by its appearance? At least he has real abilities."

"What are you really capable of? If you want to tell me, if you are really capable, you shouldn't just seal the mine pit and just solve the crisis, right? In that case, how can you still have these bad things now? Isn't it good to continue mining to make money?

Don’t you earn more than ten thousand molas per month?”

"Come on, you are scolding the emperor as well."

Well...

The person who was venting his dissatisfaction fell silent after hearing the other party's reminder and realizing that he was speaking freely.

He is just very dissatisfied with the too many uncertainties in the future, and is confused and afraid of such uncertainties in his heart.

This kind of mentality is common to most people who failed to choose to join the Qianyan Army.

The vast majority of people are miners who have worked underground all year round. Now they are forced to leave their familiar jobs and are about to face new challenges. Not everyone can say that they are ready.

Feeling uneasy inside is inevitable.

Compared to the paid and working groups, the atmosphere among those who join the military is relatively relaxed.

In Liyue, if you want to jump up the social ladder, the easiest way is to engage in business, the hardest thing is to join the Seven Stars and Eight Sects, and the safest way is to join the Qianyan Army.

This is a relatively peaceful era. If you join the Qianyan Army, you won’t have many opportunities to fight to the death on the battlefield.

The most they can do is clean up the Qiuqiu people's camp, clear the official roads, and garrison somewhere.

What's more, they are not even considered recruits now, and it is not their turn to go to those dangerous places.

So they were the most relaxed along the way, and they took great advantage of the envy of the other two groups towards them.

"I still haven't recovered yet, but I was actually selected for this recruitment."

"Well, it seems that the selection conditions this time have been relaxed a lot, and many people who are not physically fit have been selected."

"Hahaha, it's good for those people to be selected. I heard that there will be selection in the future, and those people can be screened out."

"That's right. Being a soldier is not that simple. They have been eliminated and their resources have been put to good use."

"Let's go ahead and deal with the Qianyan Army people. Maybe we will have more opportunities in the future."

"Yes, yes, it's rare to be chosen this time, so you have to seize the opportunity and go together."

Many people were talking and courting the Qianyan Army guarding the team in twos and threes, making the long team no longer look so neat.

Xiao Ke walked among the crowd, his thin body not conspicuous to others.

He is only sixteen years old, and logically speaking, he should not be among the miners. Not only is his age, but his thin body is also not comparable to the generally strong miners.

But anyone who knows the inside story knows that this little man has been working in the dark mines of the Strata Abyss for two years and is no longer a novice.

He followed the team and walked silently. He did not interact with Qian Yanjun who led the team like other smooth people, nor did he talk with others about his longing for a better future with passion like other young people.

He was just walking alone. He was sixteen years old, an orphan, and had never gone to school. He didn't understand many principles. His two years as a miner didn't teach him too many principles.

I work hard every day and take a break when the time comes.

The good news is that his simple life has allowed him to save a lot of moras. Although he hasn't figured out the use of these moras yet, he feels very satisfied when he sees the savings increasing little by little every day.

The bad news is that due to the rush of retreat, those Mora did not have time to be taken away.

Fortunately, Qixing's arrangements were quite good. 800,000 miners gathered in the suburbs of Lisha, and no one was hungry. As a young man, he felt very satisfied with this kind of days of eating, sleeping, and eating.

Although he is rich, the harsh environment in the rock abyss means that the rationing of materials is based on quotas. If you want more, you need to pay more. In order to save money, he has never had a full meal.

These past few days have been the fullest days he has eaten in sixteen years.

The reason why he is willing to join the Qianyan Army is also very simple. He heard from the soldiers who came to promote the Qianyan Army that the army not only provides food, but also provides food! Three meals!

For him, such a rule is enough, and all other rules are not as attractive as the three free meals.

So, he doesn't care about the future.

As long as you can eat enough!

Time came to afternoon, Liyue Port, Yujing Terrace.

Ouyang and Shen He walked towards the school.

The two of them were silent as always,

After a conversation in the study room, Ouyang was completely confused.

He originally thought that since Shen He asked those questions like a "great smart", would he say something else?

Such as disappointment,

For example, if you say forcefully: I want to marry into your family, it's up to you.

Or be more peaceful: Since neither of us hates each other, why don’t we get along for a while first?

But in the end, Shen He just nodded inexplicably and ended the topic.

So what does this nod mean???

Of course, Ouyang understood that those assumptions in his mind were just some things he took for granted as a man, and things were definitely not like this.

But being hung in mid-air without being able to get down is really annoying!

Ouyang wanted to ask questions clearly. He spoke several times while sitting in a wheelchair, but finally gave up.

Don't let me find a chance. Next time I'll say half of what you say and I'll piss you off!

Feeling uneasy, he pursed his lips and silently decided to find an opportunity to take revenge.
