Chapter 1823 Census (Part 1)


1823. Census (Part 1)

Principality of Dawn, Model Sector, Planet Annaji, Temporary City No. 2.

Carl Kestis picked up the connecting piece of a modular housing and accurately threw it into the hands of Furman who was standing on the second floor. Then Furman installed the connecting piece well, and then He pushed hard to make sure that the wall in front of him was firmly installed.

“It’s ready here!” Furman said loudly, then he picked up the heavy installation tool with one hand and jumped down.

"The roof is next. Mooney has already taken JG-091 there." Carl Kestis patted the dust on his body and looked at the two-story house in front of him with satisfaction , "After finishing this house, I can get the reward again today! How about I treat you to a couple of drinks?"

Furman laughed loudly and said: "Hahahaha! No problem, drink two more beers! I am in love with this specialty of the Dawn Principality!"

At this time, on the other side, the other two people in the same group with them A worker came over with a construction robot with the number JG-091 painted on its body.

The robot is holding a modular roof in its hands. However, although the robot is powerful enough, the roof is more than five meters square, and the robot's center of gravity is a little unstable when it is lifted. The two workers were also nearby to help with the balance.

There is nothing we can do about it. This is how they work in the temporary city. Apart from some robots, there are very few advanced construction machinery. To put it bluntly, the official of the Principality of Dawn is looking for trouble for them, which can be regarded as a method of providing relief through work.

"Be careful! Don't let the roof fall!" Carl Kestis reminded loudly, and he and Furman ran over to help.

However, at this moment, a sudden change occurred!

The roof module lifted by the robot suddenly tilted and hit the light pole next to it. Then it suddenly slipped from the robot's hand and fell down!

Seeing that the worker named Mooney was about to be hit by a heavy roof module! Carl Kestis's heart tightened, and he subconsciously shook his hand, but then released it, and ran over to push the roof module to the other side with all his strength.

Bang! ! There was a loud noise, and the heavy roof module fell to the ground. Mooney was hit hard and fell to the ground unconscious. Carl Kestis was also brought to the ground by the module. A large piece of flesh was scratched on his chest and arms. Blood seeped out and dyed his clothes red. He also grinned in pain. .

"Are you okay! Carl!" Furman shouted, "Call the doctor!"

Soon several medical robots floated over and took the anti-gravity stretcher on the Mooney platform to the hospital. Another medical robot floated over to Carl Kestis and said: "Sir, I will take you to the hospital for examination."

"No! I won't go to the hospital!" Carl Kestis Stith suddenly raised his voice, "I'm not going to the hospital! It's just a little scratch!"

"According to the preliminary scan, your scratch area totals 37.7 square centimeters, which is a serious trauma and needs to be done as soon as possible. Process it," the medical robot said.

"I said no, no need!!" Carl Kestis said loudly, "I have my own first aid spray! No need to go to the hospital!"

"According to the doctor-patient regulations Article 67: When the injury is not fatal, the patient’s opinion shall prevail. Please pay attention to your health.” After saying that, the medical robot ignored him and turned around and drifted away.

Furman then came over and asked with concern: "You really don't need to go to the hospital? You have a work-related injury and there is no medical fee. In other words, you don't get paid for a few days of medical treatment." "I don't need to!" Karl -Kestis looked a little anxious, "I exchanged a bottle of first aid spray at home, just spray it on."

Furman frowned and asked: "You You want to exchange for such a luxury product? You know that this is a product of the Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group, and the exchange for one bottle is equivalent to a week's salary! No wonder you rarely went out to drink last month. In fact, what happened today was an accident? How dangerous is it for us to do manual work on the top two floors? Do you have to use first aid spray? "

Although the hospital treats work-related injuries for free, it is not possible in the Principality of Dawn. Give them temporary immigrants something like first aid spray. When you go to the hospital now, most of the time it's just a very basic process of disinfection and hemostasis and bandaging.

"I..." Carl Kestis hesitated, and finally said casually, "I don't like hospitals."

Because something happened, today's bonus was lost, and everyone left unhappy. Carl Kestis returned to his residence, took off his blood-stained clothes, then took a shower to wash away the dust from his body, then disinfected the large bruised area and sprayed first-aid spray.

As one of the flagship products of Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group, first aid spray has become a popular personal first aid product in the galaxy because of its low price and easy portability. Compared with bacta liquid, which has obvious effects but is very expensive and cannot be carried around, first aid spray can only perform the most basic first aid treatment, but it has been proven that this thing can really save lives in critical moments!

Seeing that Karl Kestis's bleeding wound was stopped, and there was an itching feeling in the wound, it must have started to heal.

Karl breathed a sigh of relief and found a bandage to bandage it. Because he was bandaging it himself, it was wrapped crookedly and could only barely cover the wound.

Then, he took his blood-stained clothes and washed them again and again under the tap water until there was only a faint trace of blood left on the clothes. After confirming that it was impossible to extract anything from them, he then Throw damaged clothing in the trash.

It has been two months since he came to this temporary city, and Karl Kestis feels that he is almost used to the life here. Although manual labor in the morning and technical study in the afternoon is boring and very hard, this is exactly what he wants.

The Jedi Order has been destroyed, the Galactic Republic has been reorganized into the Galactic Empire, and the emperor is the Sith Lord Darth Sidious. However, the Principality of Dawn where he is now is also the territory of another Sith Lord, the Dead Angel. In addition, the media of the Galactic Republic/Empire have long smeared Count Dooku of the Confederation of Independent Systems, also calling him an evil and despicable Dark Lord. .

In this way, the entire galaxy seems to have become the back garden of the Sith Lord! How could such a situation not make the surviving Jedi feel desperate?

So... just find a place to spend the rest of your life... Here in the Principality of Dawn, a life of self-reliance may be surprisingly good.

The next day, after finishing his work in the morning, Carl Kestis took advantage of his lunch break to go to the hospital with Furman and visited Mooney, who was no longer in danger but was not yet awake. .

On the way back, Furman suddenly said: "Have you heard? The census is about to begin."

"Census?" Carl Kestis was suddenly shocked, "We Aren’t there a large number of immigrants coming here every day? It is said that hundreds of millions of immigrants have arrived in the past two months. What kind of census are they doing? Officials have their own ideas! Haven't you noticed? The Dawn Principality doesn't mind using robots on a large scale. This is different from the Galactic Republic, so they can always do some miracles. ”
