396 Retirement Life (Part 1)
The third second-class Phoenix Medal is in Elena's hands. It was given to her by Wang Qi when she officially retired.
Elena felt very complicated after receiving the medal.
Before the disaster, it was no longer popular in my hometown to issue rank medals. The army mainly used seniority medals, which determined the form of medals based on years of service. Only a few people had merit medals, and most of them could mix two seniority medals.
Retirement is considered a good thing.
These things were far away from her, so she didn't expect to get a high-level medal in another world.
As the chief executive of the inner court in the early days, she organized Wang Qi's documents to be sent to various departments and government-owned enterprises. Even in the final stage of training successors, many documents that were not particularly confidential needed to be reviewed by her. She was very fond of the medal.
Everything is clear.
By the time she retired, a total of 800 third-class Phoenix Medals and a total of 1,100 third-class War Bear Medals had been issued. Among the second-class medals, a total of 12 War Bear Medals had been issued. She could not see the specific distribution list, but
I can guess that most of them are in one group.
The second-class recipients of the Order of the Phoenix were not kept secret from her. The first two were not Xiao Lei and General William, as ordinary people would guess.
One was for General Xiao Lei, and the other was given to Director Benz of the Locomotive Factory.
Director Benz did not receive the medal for the diesel locomotive, but for the "Inline Engine Metal Mold Injection Molding Technology".
Elena didn't understand many concepts, but she believed in Wang Qi's judgment that this must be something more important than a diesel locomotive.
In short, after retiring, Wang Qi became his majesty and left her a three-story building covering an area of more than 40 square meters in the Wangting tree. There were no restrictions. She was alone and planned to implement her original idea and walk around.
look.
Being a kingdom general manager is sometimes not good, because the level is a bit high, and many things that originally aroused interest are just that in her eyes.
There are also reasons why the world has disappointed her.
Before she came, she had high expectations, looking forward to a beautiful and livable different world. But she didn't expect that we were in the dark age. The dividends of magic did not fall on ordinary people at all. People's lives were not as good as a pet in the industrial age.
Many people work hard just to be half full.
Also, the definition of "person" is a bit different from what she expected.
I'm not very good at everything, but over the years, I've gradually gotten used to the messy humanoid aesthetic.
When Caroline received her fourth second-class medal, Elena happened to be in Xincheng.
For many days in a row, she watched the mixed-race children go to and from school at the gate of Xincheng Basic School.
...This difference in appearance is still a bit hard to accept.
But watching her children go to and from school made her feel very peaceful, as if she had returned to a time without war.
I don’t know how my children are doing. If Solaris abides by the agreement with His Majesty and cuts off the nodes of the other world over there, he should be rebuilding human civilization.
Thinking of this, Elena smiled unconsciously: a bit wishful thinking.
It was precisely because of her close proximity to His Majesty that she realized how difficult it was for human civilization to reach the pre-disaster stage and how many thresholds it had to cross.
Without a strong leader like His Majesty and a large group of loyal executors under his command, and there is no magical shortcut in that world, even if we want to generate enough surplus materials and manpower to re-establish the school, we don’t know how many years and months it will take, and where will we be able to negotiate?
human civilization.
Are you probably working hard to open up new land and expand planting area now? Or maybe you have adapted to the post-disaster living conditions and don’t plan to go back?
Every time I fall into similar thoughts, I always feel that Wang Qi is not an ordinary person as he said. He has a divine brilliance that is difficult to conceal. Except for his treatment of Li Xiang and his food, which is a bit human, this brilliance almost covers up his humanity.
Nonsense, can Solaris choose ordinary people?
It's a pity. If we could have found a way to keep Wang Qi in the North, the survivors in his hometown might have lived a better life?
...It seems to be in an endless loop again. If Wang Qi doesn't come, Solaris will not cut off the nodes of the other world, and there will not be many obedient survivors to realize his ideas. Staying there is overkill. Maybe this
At that time, he was still leading everyone to build a small town to resist the invasion of the mutant Xiao Qiang.
Maybe it was because the humanoid old lady was a bit conspicuous at the school gate every day, and someone approached her and talked to her this day.
"Have I seen you somewhere?"
"Hoho, your pick-up method is too old." She reacted almost instinctively, and then she saw the other person's face clearly.
Qingpi, about two meters tall, seemed familiar at first glance, but Elena was somewhat face-blind about these different species and couldn't be sure.
Qingpi recognized her.
In the entire penal colony, purebred humans are really scarce. Even if they can perform at the same level as humans after putting on clothes, the proportion is less than 10%.
"Love...General Manager Elena?" Qingpi was shocked.
Elena was also a little surprised: "Do you really know me? Ah! But I am no longer the manager. I retired at the beginning of this month."
There are very few Qingpis who are lucky enough to know Elena. There is no doubt that this is one of the two Manu brothers. He has come to pick up his daughter these days. His daughter was born after the big collision, because the Qingyan tribe is slightly underdeveloped.
Come on, I'm in the first grade this year, but I can't keep up with the class, so I might have to repeat the grade.
He also saw this person every day, took a few sneak peeks, and thought he looked familiar, so he came to chat with her.
Because most of the people in Xincheng are slaves, they are very defensive and generally do not talk to strangers on the street, especially those from other ethnic groups. Over time, a relatively quiet urban atmosphere has been formed. Brother Manu's sudden conversation seemed quite rude.
Yes, luckily I didn’t admit my mistake.
You will be a little surprised to hear Elena's words: "Retirement?"
"Yes, are you being expelled?"
"Ah? Isn't it true that you will serve the royal family for a lifetime?"
"Ho ho ho, your majesty is your majesty, where did the royal family come from?" After Elena retired, she no longer had work pressure and was in a much better mood. She originally liked to make people happy.
"Ah?" Brother Manu hasn't come to his senses yet and doesn't know how to respond. The chief manager... the former chief manager can make a joke. I don't know if anything will happen if he joins in on it.
Elena saw it and changed the topic: "Do you have children studying?"
"Yes, my daughter is in the first grade and her grades are not very good. The main reason is that Qin language is too difficult." The development speed of the Qingyan tribe is faster than that of normal humans, but that does not mean that their intelligence can keep up with their body size.
"It doesn't matter, basic school will be extended to eight years in the future."
"Ah!? No!" Brother Manu wailed, suddenly thinking that there was a great opportunity in front of him, "Boss...Ms. Elena, when you receive the child, can you please come to my house for dinner?"
"Hmm? Yes, you can, but you can't pry into His Majesty's secrets."
...It should be said that he is worthy of being a general manager, but Brother Manu has not gone back on his word. This is a real big shot. Even if His Majesty is not mentioned, his vision is definitely not comparable to that of a bastard like them who deals in raw materials.
"Don't talk about it, just talk casually. Our family will have a lot of students who need to study in the future. If this is extended to eight years, they may be scared to death. You can help explain a few words by the way."
