Chapter 18 Walking the Process
Just because the government does not receive people with evil intentions does not mean that they do not need to deal with complicated affairs. Therefore, when Zhou Xinyi and Brandy enter the government hall, they will find that the hall is full of scattered documents and busy civil servants.
But even so, someone still came to pick them up.
"Sorry! Gentlemen, what business do you need to deal with?" asked a girl with brown hair and some cute freckles on her face.
Zhou Xinyi said, "I need to apply for a new judge's seal."
Perhaps it was because this kind of business was too rare. The girl was stunned for two seconds before saying with skillful words, "Okay, sir, but because of the mayor's large-scale railway repairs, the government has received quite a few complaints and objections.
More... This also means that we need more time to handle normal business."
"railway?"
Zhou Xinyi asked, "Sorry, I just arrived in Jizhou City not long ago. Can I talk about the railway next time?"
"Of course, Mr. Judge," the girl said without any doubt of Zhou Xinyi's identity, "This is the design of a Roman designer, Mr. Broma. He developed a steam-powered iron vehicle... He called this design
It's a 'steam train', but a steam train can only run on something called a 'rail'."
"The mayor thought that this would allow ordinary people who are not good at using techniques, techniques, and runes to travel freely between cities, so he decided to build a railway in the wasteland."
Zhou Xinyi and Brandy couldn't help but look at each other, and both sides saw horror in each other's eyes.
It's like witnessing the idea that "history is circular" with your own eyes, and witnessing two different civilizations taking the same route.
The technology trees of these two civilizations are even different... but history is such a coincidence that even the names of the trains are the same.
"It is indeed a good thing to promote communication between people." Zhou Xinyi said.
The girl also nodded, "Yes, I also support Mr. City Lord's decision, so that I can have a chance to see if the flowers in Wanyan City are really that beautiful."
As the girl was talking, she suddenly remembered the business, "Ah, by the way, Mr. Judge, it will take about seven days for the judge's seal to be issued. Before that, you need to complete some procedures. You have left a judge registration with the government in Jizhou City.
record?"
Seven days... He couldn't even guarantee whether this light curtain could last for seven days.
Zhou Xinyi handed the sign left by the Mailer officer to the girl, "Please arrange it as soon as possible."
The girl was stunned for a moment when she looked at the sign, and then said as if she had woken up, "Okay! I'll confirm your registration record right now!"
Her tone sounded like she would definitely help settle the matter even if she didn't record it.
"Please leave an address and we will send it to you immediately after the seal is approved!"
What Zhou Xinyi left behind was the hotel’s address and room number.
After leaving the government, Zhou Xinyi immediately considered his next destination, "The three badges represent order, monsters and resources respectively. Which one should we go to first?"
"It depends on your needs," Brandy said, "but I must remind you that since Song has been missing for seventy years, these badges that cannot contact the holder will be temporarily hidden, waiting for the new holder to activate."
"After activation, the holder will get the convenience brought by the badge, but also needs to face the responsibilities assigned by the camp."
Zhou Xinyi said, "In other words, I'd better not activate them at the same time, so as not to be too busy."
Seeing Bai Lan nodding, Zhou Xinyi continued to ask, "What do you think of these three camps?"
"I've been hunted by them," Brandy smiled, "more than once."
Zhou Xinyi couldn't help but feel gloating about his misfortune.
It seems that Brandy doesn't know much about the internal affairs of the camp and can't give him reliable advice. That's right, how can such a large organization let the enemy probe their affairs.
Order, monsters, resources... among these three, what does he need most?
For a new successor, that is of course a resource!
Zhou Xinyi was about to turn to the road leading to the resource camp according to the map, when suddenly he realized a problem.
The resource in the eyes of the indigenous people and the successors may not be the same resource.
What if the resources here refer to things like oil, wine, wheat? These resources are indeed very attractive, enough to make him a rich man in this world, but this means nothing to him as the successor.
.
Apart from these possibilities, how did the indigenous people here obtain resources?
It’s nothing more than exploration and business.
He has already experienced the danger of leaving the city from the local customs. He does not want to enter that dangerous and unfamiliar territory in advance just because of an order from the camp!
After excluding "resources" first, and then excluding "monsters" that seem to make people think a lot, the only thing that is consistent with his status as a judge is "order".
Okay, he can go take a look first and not make a decision in a hurry.
The buildings in the Order Camp are made of white and brown square strips, so that the building looks like a pile of irregular building blocks. In order to have a beautiful structure, some walls even have hollows in the middle, regardless of whether it is beautiful or not.
, Zhou Xinyi felt that sooner or later there would be problems with the load-bearing capacity of this building.
Haven't people in this era played the game of stacking building blocks together and taking turns to pull them out? This game will tell them that irregular building blocks can easily collapse even if they are stuck together.
After entering the building, Zhou Xinyi saw six dark load-bearing columns, interspersed in the building like iron squid sticks.
It seems that the designer also knew that this thing would collapse... Zhou Xinyi couldn't help but complain.
"Are you sacrificing the layout of the building in exchange for the beauty of the exterior?" For some unknown reason, Brandy, who had been hunted down many times, also followed him in swaggeringly. At this time, he was looking around with an expression that said, "I can't bear to look at it." "I don't know.
Will people living here complain?"
Brandy, it turns out you are also a person with a sense of humor.
"Sir," a man in a black suit walked out from behind a load-bearing pillar. He had a bitter face that looked exactly like Squidward, but his eyebrows were thicker, "What do you want?"
He didn't seem to be here to receive us, and his attitude was not even respectful.
Zhou Xinyi didn't quite trust his attitude. He took a look around the camp and found that unlike the bustle of the government, the entire first floor was deserted and he was the only living person.
"Activate the badge," Zhou Xinyi had to take out the badge, "Do you know where the badge is activated?"
"Just give it to me." He took the badge over naturally.
Zhou Xinyi was not worried that he would take away the badge. He could see that this was just an ordinary person, at least he had not practiced fighting skills, and his single body plate could not support him in picking up weapons that were too heavy.
If the man suddenly ran away, he would shoot him in the leg.
In fact, this Squidward... oh no, this gentleman behaved completely normally. He skillfully put the badge into a machine like a tree hole, and coated the badge with a layer of crystal clear tree pulp.
It is a mystical instrument called "mouth wood". The pulp it spits out can form a protective film to make items stronger.
Soon, a bead the size of a blueberry popped out of his mouth, and the man quickly put the bead into his trouser pocket.
His trouser pockets were very loose, and you could vaguely see that several beads like this had been stuffed into them.
The man handed the badge sealed with tree pulp to Zhou Xinyi, "Here it is, so Zui Mumu can remember the imprint of this badge."
After Zhou Xinyi took the badge, a woman ran out collapsed.
"No! You stinky painter, I told you not to receive my guests while I was in the bathroom!"
She scolded loudly, "You are not an employee here, and don't pour me water while I am talking, I can't help but drink it!"
The man did not have any shame in being found out for doing something wrong. Instead, he said very righteously, "I heard your boss said that you will be paid according to the number of guests you receive. I will go to him to collect the money in a few days."
The woman was furious, "The boss won't give it to you!"
After watching the man leave, the female receptionist said very tiredly, "Sir, if you see him next time, be sure to ignore him. He is not a member of our camp at all."
"..." Zhou Xinyi was speechless, "Then did he do something wrong?"
"...That's not true."
In fact, Zhou Xinyi can understand this eagerness to make money. After all, he was once a busy social worker.
As long as I don't do anything wrong for him...but this lady probably won't be able to accept it.
"That gentleman left in a hurry. Can you tell me what benefits and responsibilities you will enjoy after holding the badge?"
The woman puffed up her chest proudly, "Of course, sir, that guy over there is only half-assed. I dare say that even if he had time, he wouldn't be able to answer your question."
The woman said, "Badges are divided into four categories: three categories, two categories, one category, and special categories. Your badge is a category two badge."
"The position corresponding to this badge level is a judge. You have the right to supervise the behavior of no more than second-level officials and make corrections or report it."
"You can get a weekly salary of 650 kunlang from the order camp, and 2% of the profit after each "control"."
"Your status is equivalent to a second-class official in Jizhou City."
"In contrast, you need to review a batch of people's applications every month, and you only need to fill in the approval or disapproval form."
"If there is a "control" incident that cannot be dealt with in Jizhou City, please participate voluntarily."
"Control?" Zhou Xinyi asked.
The woman nodded, "When large-scale crimes occur, or outsiders who pose a threat appear, they must be controlled by the order camp."
"After the control, both the loot left by the criminals and the amount of compensation given by the government will be included in the overall profits for everyone to share."
"Don't underestimate this 2%. When accumulated, it is still very impressive!"
Zhou Xinyi nodded, having a certain understanding of the badge.
He looked at the woman who was working hard, and the social animal culture was deeply rooted in his bones. He suddenly had a question.
"So this time, do you and the gentleman receive the reception together, or is it just one person? Whose salary counts?"
Zhou Xinyi regretted it after asking.
Because the woman kept her mouth open for a long time, not a single syllable came out of her throat.
Chapter completed!
