Chapter 740 Heroes Meeting, times create heroes!


Chapter 740 Heroes Meeting, times create heroes!

On June 21, the eighth year of the last calendar year, the weather was sunny and the temperature was 37 degrees.

After the three-day hail disaster ended, early in the morning, the weather in the wasteland began to quickly return to the usual heat.

It was only early seven in the morning, and the red sun climbed up to the horizon and began to evaporate the unmelted hailstones in the entire New World.

Assailed by the sudden heat, Ge Jianan had no choice but to get up from the small single room.

Beneath her body, the plain-colored sheets brought from home were already covered with sweat stains from a night's work.

If you look carefully, you can see a few squirming bugs, struggling to move among the sheets, trying to find a clean and tidy space.

In the civilized era, such a scene has been difficult to see.

However, as a party.

Although the environment is very poor, considering that renting such a single room only requires ten transaction points a month.

Ge Jian'an was still very satisfied. He lifted up the sheets, shook them, neatly put them away in his handmade wooden suitcase.

On Earth, he is an architectural designer, and his main service targets are major high-end commercial communities.

Unfortunately, in this wasteland, ordinary humans have almost no need for high-rise buildings.

Furthermore, the flashy and unique house is not as solid as the ugly and sturdy house. Even if Ge Jianan claims that his design can improve safety and functionality, no one will pay for it. .

Coupled with frequent natural disasters and the fact that the house is a consumable, he, an architect, has not received any decent orders for about two years, so he has no choice but to join the army of odd jobs drifting with the crowd.

"Hey, Jian'an is going home today?"

"These things have been packed, I'm afraid I have to leave today?"

"So soon, I still want to stay for two days Let’s see if there are any other jobs. I haven’t made enough money this year.”

“Jian’an probably works full-time at Zizailiangfang. In those three days, he earned as much as other people earn in a whole summer. I’m envious. "

Looking at Ge Jian'an pulling his suitcase out of the room, other migrant workers who got up early in the yard came to ask questions.

The income of ninety points is naturally not worth mentioning in a normal summer harvest.

But this year’s situation is so bad that this amount of money has become a life-saving money, which is enough to make those working on official plantations and those doing odd jobs elsewhere envious to death.

“Yes, food prices have risen too much this year, and the situation outside is not peaceful either. I have to go back to the territory as soon as possible.”

“It will cost more to stay in the Tianyuan territory for one day. A day's worth of money."

Looking at the small room behind him with a sigh, Ge Jian'an stepped forward and hugged these people who had been eating and living together for a few days.

Although he also knows that in this wasteland, as long as everyone chooses to leave each other, it may be goodbye forever.

Luck cannot support a person coming here and continuing to work for several years in a row.

Even he himself may no longer be able to come to the territory where he has worked for three years due to various reasons next year.

“Let’s go!”

Hearing these two familiar words again, Ge Jianan paused for a moment before stepping out of the courtyard, but in the end he still walked firmly towards the center of the town. go.

The first stop was a breakfast shop called "Chaoyang" in Sangtian Town.

This shop is opened by a Shandong native. Every morning when he passes by, the flatbread with the strong aroma of sesame, the oily and black eight-treasure porridge, and the fresh green onions will whet his appetite. increase.

Limited by the high price of at least two transaction points for a meal, he would hesitate for a long time every time before leaving reluctantly.

Now, we are about to leave Tianyuan territory.

He is also willing to go out of his way to satisfy his wish and reward his hungry stomach for many days.

"Boss, give me two, no, give me three pancakes, pack one and eat the other two now"

"Give me a big bowl of eight-treasure porridge, two portions of pickles, and some green onions. Three!”

As soon as he walked in and sat down, Ge Jianan didn’t feel bad anymore and simply ordered all the food he usually wanted to eat.

Among them, two large cakes can keep him hungry all day long, and the remaining one can be eaten on the way.

“Okay, Chenghui has 3 trading points!”

"Three?" After looking at the price sign at the door, he realized that the price of this breakfast restaurant had also increased along with food prices. Ge Jianan had no choice but to open the game panel in distress and turn the transaction point over.

At the same time, it also strengthened his determination to leave this high-consumption territory and return to the Dragon and Phoenix territory.

In this town, food expenses cost 3 points a day, and the 90 points he earned could only last a month.

Counting a family of four, I am afraid that the money earned is not enough to eat.

Only by returning to the Dragon Phoenix territory and managing the one-third of an acre of land well can the food obtained be enough to feed the family.

Fortunately, it is served with flatbread, hot porridge, and pickles.

While eating these steaming foods, a huge sense of happiness finally hit him, making him feel much less depressed.

It wasn't until a whole piece of cake was eaten that Ge Jianan raised his head contentedly and looked at the other diners in the store.

Based on different clothing and eating habits, more than half of the people in the store are aboriginal people from Sangtian Town and have a lot of money.

Among the remaining people, about 30% were similar to him. They all had to leave the territory before they dared to come over and reward themselves with a meal.

"Hey, have you heard? Zizailiangfang seems to be announcing some kind of conference today, and they've been setting up a stage this morning."

"I saw it written on their flyer, it seems to be called "Hero" "Yes?"

"The name is too vague. Isn't it just to follow the example of the official plantation and reward some people who perform well during the summer harvest? It is so grand that people who don't know it think they are It’s time to do something big.”

“How can it be compared with the official plantation? The official plantation rewards status. The most you can get in Zizailiangfang is double the salary.”

“No, no. No, the Potential Hero Award is worth 1,000 points, and you can also buy status! ”

"."

Listen to the discussion of several people on the table next to you.

After hearing a few key words, Ge Jianan raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but stand up.

"Brother, can I take a look at that conference flyer you mentioned?"

Pointing to the sheets pressed under one of the buttocks, Ge Jianan handed over a plate without using his chopsticks. side dishes.

"Easy to say, easy to say." After taking the side dish, the man quickly took out the paper from under his butt, with a look of surprise on his face.

He picked up this flyer casually when he passed by the gate of Liangfang. He didn't expect that someone would exchange it for a side dish.

"Thank you"

Sitting back down, Ge Jianan turned his attention to the A4 paper full of text and began to read it carefully while eating.

The "Heroes Association" was initiated by Mr. Su Youzong, the first "leader" of Zizai Liangfang. Its goal is to reward those who performed best among the 21,000 workers hired by Zizai Liangfang during this summer harvest. An outstanding group of people"

"All reward funds are spent by Liangfang, and there is no penalty system involved, so everyone does not need to worry."

A few words set the tone. After seeing that there was no punishment, Ge Jianan felt relieved and started to go See specific rewards.

“The Heroes Association has three grand prizes. Hey, there are quite a few prizes.”

“The first prize is for the Unsung Heroes, which is awarded to the top 100 people with the highest workload during the summer harvest. People, the first fifty people can get the reward of doubling their salary and reimbursing their round-trip tickets, and the bottom fifty people can get the reward of increasing their salary by 50% and also reimbursing their tickets."

"The second award is true Hero, reward the top 100 people with the highest work efficiency during the summer harvest, the same reward as above"

"The third award is the Potential Hero Award. The award is more complicated. You need to submit personal details first, and then be reviewed and appraised by the alliance leader Su Youzong. The selection conditions are also relatively stringent, and the award."

"Holy shit. , the first place has a thousand points? ?"

Sucking the eight-treasure porridge in the bowl, Ge Jianan choked and coughed after seeing that the first place in the Potential Hero Award actually had a thousand points.

One thousand points is enough to buy the lowest level status in most places in Tianyuan territory.

Even the status of a plantation worker in Sangtian Town only requires 800 points.

If you can get the first place in this award, it goes without saying that you can just go through the settlement procedures on the spot and follow Zizailiangfang in the future.

And the remaining rewards

"Except for the first place in the top ten, which is 1,000 points, the last nine all have 500 points which is not bad."

"And the last forty Name, good guys, all of them are 200 points, which is more than the harvest in a whole summer harvest in previous years!”

After reading the rewards with envy, I thought that I only know one architectural design craft, Ge Jianan! I couldn't help but feel a little frustrated. For the first two rewards, he can still try his best next year to see if he can get a lower ranking and enjoy the treatment of a "hero".

But he couldn't even think about the latter one. Who asked him to study other potential majors such as biology, chemistry, mechanics, and physics.

“Most people didn’t make any money during the summer harvest this year, but if Zizai Liangfang did this, the top 100 people would have made a lot of money.”

“It’s such a pity, I would have known it earlier. I worked hard at that point, since I only have three days anyway, and I’m so tired.”

Walking out of the breakfast shop, Ge Jian’an thought for a moment like an afterthought, and finally sighed helplessly in the direction of Zizai Liangfang. go.

In the wasteland, no one can guess what will happen next.

Whether it is a disaster or an opportunity, only the hardest working and luckiest people can always seize the opportunity.

In terms of hard work, Ge Jianan believes that he has achieved the greatest extent.

But in terms of luck, he has always been unlucky.

“You’re here to collect your salary? First go over there and find someone to get the registration form. After filling it out, give it to me, and then go and draw the number.”

"This year's disaster happened too unexpectedly. We all have to go back together. There is no way. There are too many people. We can only issue about a quarter today."

"If you get the number for tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, Don't waste time today, go back and wait."

"Do you still want to draw numbers?" Ge Jianan's face immediately turned bitter when he thought about his bad luck and the possibility of being drawn directly on the last day. down.

In three days, the cost will be about five points more, which is not a big problem.

The key is that there is no backbone at home. If someone catches someone and robs the food, it will be troublesome.

"Name, gender, personal skills, home address, fill in your previous territory, don't fill it in wrong"

"There is also a specific description below, if there is any, you can write more, yes "It will help in the selection of potential awards later."

While looking at a table handed over to him, the man sitting behind the table did not want to give any instructions.

Ge Jian'an smiled bitterly: "This is Manager Sun, I majored in architectural design. Even if it is full, it will be useless, right?"

"Architectural design? How could it be useless? It will be useful if you fill it in!”

"What?" Ge Jianan was stunned when he received an unexpected answer.

“Our Hero Association recruits talents from all walks of life, not those industries that you imagine are being robbed everywhere. Otherwise, how can we, a small family in Liangfang, and a small business like you, architectural designers, grab the talent? Not bad, maybe the leader of our Heroes Association will like it?”

“That’s it!”

After being explained, Ge Jianan didn’t understand it, but it didn’t stop him. A strange feeling suddenly arose in the dark.

Just like what Manager Sun said, what if the alliance leader Su Youzong takes a fancy to it?

What if he becomes "blind"?

Looking at the blank watch, Ge Jianan immediately borrowed a pen and started thinking about it with all his heart.

In eight years, humans in the wasteland have spent very little time writing Chinese characters.

But at this moment, with all his attention concentrated, Ge Jianan wrote very seriously, writing every stroke neatly.

Not long after, all the basic information on the front was finally filled out.

Turn to the back.

Seeing the full space for free play, he did not waste any of it.

From the school you graduated from, to the knowledge you have learned, work experience, work performance, and discussion of various functional design ideas for the wasteland, write them all down!

Blow on the handwriting that is not yet dry, and read it through again until you confirm that there are no typos or illogical sentences.

Ge Jian'an flicked the paper with satisfaction and handed it back to "Director Sun".

"Ge Ge Jian'an, eh, this name seems a bit familiar!"

"Graduating from Huaqing University, which is good, very good!"

After handing in the form, I saw Manager Sun turning over the Look at your own information and nod in affirmation from time to time.

Ge Jianan smiled, returned to the lottery office, took his salary and received his number plate.

As expected, he took out a paper ball and opened it.

That time, although not the last day, is also the morning after tomorrow.

"Sure enough, my luck is really bad."

Looking at the person behind him drawing a paper ball that he could claim immediately, Ge Jianan could not question the fairness. I had no choice but to sit tiredly on the roadside dragging my suitcase.

Not far away, the stage for the Heroes Association has been set up with colorful signs.

Among them, the list of unknown heroes has been listed, and hundreds of densely packed names are being reviewed by hundreds of pairs of eyes.

Knowing his workload, Ge Jian'an only looked at the top ten names and looked back, not expecting much.

At this time, his mind was a little confused.

While thinking about whether the arrangements I made at home can prevent those who want to do evil, I also thought about where to go in the next six months after returning to the territory.

With the rise in food prices, large territories can still use force to suppress it, but small territories are born as bandits. They are lucky not to bully their own people at critical moments, so how can they still suppress food prices.

"If only" the idea of ​​staying in Tianyuan territory once again came up. Ge Jianan shook his head repeatedly, trying to get rid of this idea.

If he wants to stay alone, even if he works illegally, it won't be a problem.

But with a large family, his responsibilities are very heavy and cannot be solved by black labor.

However.

Just as he was thinking a lot, a slightly familiar voice suddenly sounded.

"Ge Jian'an, you are number 96 on the list of unsung heroes and number 43 on the list of true heroes. Why don't you go and receive the award?"

"What's wrong, you don't like this little money?"

"What?" Raising his head, Ge Jian'an looked at the speaker subconsciously, thinking that an acquaintance was joking with him.

But after discovering that it was Director Sun from before, he stood up in shock and looked over in disbelief.

Sure enough, on the list of unsung heroes in the distance, the three characters Ge Jian'an were shining brightly in the fourth place from the bottom.

And on the list of real heroes that was being posted, he was also listed in the top fifty.

"I'm on the list?!"

A burst of indescribable ecstasy surged into his heart, and for just a moment, even the suitcase on the ground was forgotten by Ge Jianan.

He ran to the front of the stage with abandon, lying on the list and looking left and right.

After confirming that the name on the list was really mine, I hugged each other and cried loudly with other people who also saw my name.

90 points, after the list of unsung heroes increases by 50%, it will be 135 points.

The list of true heroes has doubled again, adding up to 225 points. If you include the 80 points that were reimbursed twice.

305 points.

It turned out to be a number that was three times higher than expected!

This can no longer be called making a fortune, but directly changing their destiny and providing them with unimaginable help in the following difficult days!

Just.

While crying, Ge Jianan didn't notice.

The supervisor Sun who reminded him was now standing under the previous big tree, showing an elusive smile.

It is said that times make heroes; times make heroes.

As long as the selection criteria are set by people, there will definitely be room for "activities".

As the organizer, when the hero association thinks that person is a hero, to the outside world, he is naturally a hero!

Even if he was just a nobody before.

Even if his performance in the summer harvest was still far from the standard line for receiving rewards.

Is it important?
