"I didn't have breakfast either!" The man sighed, touched his money bag, and found that there were only a few old copper plates left in it.
The problem is, he really hasn't found a place in Bunas where you can have a meal for a few coins. Along the way, there are those grand hotels that look so grand that they can't even get in through the door.
?
There are some vendors selling snacks on the roadside, but the food sold by these vendors is not cheap. There is something called a burger, which is filled with meat and vegetables and topped with sauce. It looks extremely delicious, but the price is also scary.
.
To be honest, the prices of these burgers sold on the roadside are actually very affordable. Because they are originally targeting the middle and lower class people who work in Bunas.
However, the price of a hamburger at two or three silver coins is definitely not cheap for those poor people who have just arrived in Bunas.
In other cities except Bunas, a few copper coins can already buy food. If you are willing to spend a silver coin, you can definitely eat well.
It's a pity that the prices in Bunas... are indeed a bit scary for new outsiders. There is no way, the consumption in this place has expanded with the economic development, and it is out of control.
Didn’t you see that at some luxury hotels, especially at the entrance of the Bunas Hotel, the parking fee for the car parking is all paper money!
Rich people are very generous here, because they can earn in one day what they would have earned in a year. Therefore, not only are they spending lavishly, but the rewards are also really impressive.
It is not uncommon to give a gold coin casually. In some high-end places, it is not uncommon for people to take a hundred gold coins as a purchase just for the sake of face.
"Don't worry. With your master's talents and my talents, why don't you just make thousands of gold coins and spend them casually? Money..."
"Sir... you'd better stop bragging... We don't have a place to live now, and we don't have money to eat... Aren't you... not in a hurry?" The book boy felt that he was even hungrier, so he stopped talking.
He exposed the man's background without giving any face.
Looking at the various strange wooden boxes neatly arranged in the glass display window, and seeing the prices marked below the boxes, the man swallowed his saliva and felt that it might not be easy to find a paid job here.
matter.
The place where they were standing at this moment was a store selling radios. Radios were still new to this era, so the prices were frighteningly high.
The current price tag of a serious radio is about 10 gold coins - you know, the price of a Renmin brand car today is only about 70 gold coins.
What's even more exaggerated is that there are naturally more expensive and better radios - rich people naturally want higher-end and more tasteful designs in their homes, so the price of a radio with a classic walnut design may even exceed that of a radio.
car.
"What you said...that makes some sense." Withdrawing his gaze, the man really didn't understand why a wooden box with several circle buttons on it dared to be sold for 30 gold coins.
"Right!" The book boy nodded immediately. He was carrying the books along the way. Of course, he was hungry first. There is nothing wrong with this logic, is there?
"Then let's go! Go meet the owner of this place and have a chat with him... If he is someone with real abilities, it would be a good idea for me to stay and help him." The man took a bold step forward.
, walked towards a businessman standing by the roadside reading a newspaper.
"Excuse me...how to get to the city lord's palace in Bunas City?" The man stepped aside and asked while the other party was flipping through the newspaper.
"City Lord's Mansion? You ask the City Hall? Walk along this street, go to Guangming Road, turn right... pay attention to the left hand side, there is a sign hanging there." The businessman stretched out his hand and pointed curtly, intentionally or unintentionally revealing his
The rather expensive watch replied.
Seeing the man thanking him and leaving with his servants, the businessman curled his lips and regretted that the man did not recognize that he was wearing the cheapest Datang Fashion brand watch.
The man walked in the direction pointed by the other party and found that it was not a very short distance. There were some places on the road under construction, and it didn't look like a big project.
A sign was being erected. It looked like it was made of iron. It was obvious that Bunas was wealthy enough to use iron sheets to make the sign.
Of course the man didn't know that this was a stop sign in preparation for the passage of buses, and it also had a matching rain cover design. He also didn't know that the sign he saw was not iron at all, but stainless steel.
Of course, Bunas is not so wealthy as to use stainless steel to make the entire bus station. In fact, only the stop signs with braille are made of stainless steel.
The remaining rain gear and the huge advertising board are actually made of wood, using materials left over from the previous sailboat manufacturing at the Bunas Shipyard.
To be honest, this is already very rich in itself, because these expensive woods were previously used to make sailboats!
Before free wheels were slowly popularized, the price of these woods was quite high, and the production process was also very complicated.
But what no one expected is that now, with the development of steel giants, the price of wood, which was originally expensive, has gradually become more affordable.
In the distant sky, huge hot air balloons hang advertising slogans for the first World Industrial Expo in Bunas.
On the long canvas hanging in the air, there are super huge words "Welcome to Bunas" written vertically.
The electrified street lights are not on yet, but these tall pillars erected on both sides of the road are enough to give people a sense of oppression caused by an inexplicable order.
Under such a sense of oppression, the man finally arrived at the door of the city hall with his little book boy.

arrive.
"Excuse me... Just let me know..." Finally, he stood in front of the guards. The man was polite and prepared to announce his name and ask to see the city lord here.
As a result, before he finished announcing his home, he found that the guard standing there had no intention of paying any attention to him...
He just stood there with his rifle in hand and his chin raised, without even looking at the man in front of him.
The guards of the City Hall are not actual combat troops. According to their division, they are actually under the jurisdiction of the Bunas City Hall and are a parallel unit with the Police Headquarters.
Basically, these guards are similar to honor guards and do not undergo much actual combat training. Their daily tasks are to stand guard, patrol and look cool, take photos with people, and perform flag-raising performances.
Speaking of combat effectiveness, they are worse than the workers' reserve force of the Datang Group and rarely conduct actual combat training. Anyone familiar with this place knows that if you really want to challenge the security forces of the Datang Group, you should go to Bunas
Climb over the wall at the Datang Group factory instead of making trouble at the city hall...
"I asked, what do you do?" The guard on guard said nothing, and the noncommissioned officer on duty came out of the guard room.
As the scale of Bunas City continues to expand, the management team has begun to become more refined and has a clear division of labor.
Gradually, the city hall became just a symbolic office place, and few people came here directly to do business.
This is the advancement of the modern management system: the division of labor is becoming more and more detailed, and dedicated people control specific projects, which to a certain extent greatly improves work efficiency.
The entire system is efficient and smooth, and can better maintain the operation of the city during the economic upturn. As for it gradually becoming overcrowded and cumbersome, that is another matter.
Obviously, this is many times better than the operating model in other regions where the city lords and consuls are in charge of everything.
"I come from the Dahua Empire, and my surname is Nangong. My surname is Hong. My ancestor, Nangong Yuang, was the eighth prime minister of the Dahua Empire..." Seriously, this man named Nangong Hong comes from his ancestor.
Introducing yourself is almost like handing in your resume.
The noncommissioned officer on duty at the door was a little confused. He really didn't know what this polite guy was doing standing here and trying to drag him around.
However, if he can become a non-commissioned officer in Bunas, even if he is a guard sergeant in the city hall, he must have studied.
It's definitely not good for him to drag out the text, but he can still understand the other person's silly introduction to himself.
So, the sergeant interrupted the man digging his ancestor's grave and asked: "Um... what are you doing in the city hall? Speak up!"
"I would like to pay a visit to the city lord. Please send me a message to the general..." Nangong Hong explained the purpose of his visit.
Where did this fool come from... The sergeant looked Nangong Hong up and down and felt that describing him as a fool seemed a bit impolite, so he changed the word in his mind - beggar.
"You need to make an appointment to meet the mayor. Complaints should be registered and accepted next door..." There is no way, this is what he eats, so even though the sergeant regarded Nangonghong as a beggar, he still completed his work conscientiously.
As a routine, he introduced all the possible reasons for those idiots who came to the city hall to ask for a meeting with the mayor. While talking, he pointed in the direction of the next door.
Nonsense, if a random person comes here and says he wants to see the mayor and director, the mayor doesn’t have to do anything else for the day...
Perhaps after understanding what the sergeant said, Nangong Hong was a little embarrassed... He came here to recommend himself as a counselor to earn a living, not to complain.
However, he understood that he needed to make an appointment in advance to meet the mayor, but he couldn't wait any longer - he hadn't eaten yet!
"That...I'm here to...get a job..." Nangong Hong could only bite the bullet and explain shyly.
"Huh?" The sergeant was stunned for a moment, and then he understood: "Registration for the civil service examination has closed early. Come back on the 5th of next month!"
