Early in the morning, the cleaning carriages of the sanitation office drove through the streets and alleys, collecting garbage from the doorsteps of every house. Today is the designated day for collecting combustible garbage. The packed cardboard boxes were loaded into the rear compartment and stacked. After them,
Milk carriages also went door to door to pick up empty milk.
bottle, the bottle filled with hot fresh milk was taken out from under the quilt and put into the milk box. Amidst the clear and melodious sound of the bell, the milkman sniffed the fragrance of toast and drove his old horse to the next house. Across the asphalt road
On the sidewalk, I passed a group of workers who had finished their night shift and rushed home to sleep.
Alfheim is a city that never lacks vitality and is very well-behaved. After a whole night of carnival celebrations, the citizens who only slept for a few hours began to work and live in an orderly manner according to their daily rhythm.
This definitely does not include Roland, Caspar, and Nona.
Last night at the carnival party where people shouted "Long live the consul!" and "Long live the colonel!", after the bad guys from the army got the permission to "allow for a night of mischief", they not only got so drunk that they belly danced, but also became evil-minded.
They gave the children apple juice mixed with sherry, euphemistically calling it "men who don't drink are not men", "the colonel's order is nonsense"... the result was that even the loud reveille could not wake up the three little ones who were lying in bed.
Drunk cat.
The law stipulates that cigarettes and alcoholic beverages are not allowed to be sold to minors, but homemade juice does not seem to be included...[
In addition, the captain of the Guards was also inexplicably drunk.
Nidhogg has long passed the legal age of adulthood for elves, so drinking is not illegal. However, it is a bit too much to drink a whole barrel of high-strength distilled liquor. After getting drunk, he cried out "The colonel's sheets are stained"
It's really confusing to say things like "I am the real palace!" and "I am the real palace!"...
"Maybe this should be written into law."
Picking up the blanket that fell on the floor and covering Roland's exposed navel, Li Lin exited the dormitory.
His adoptive father is busy every day either in the Council, the Municipal Council, or in factories, the military, scientific research institutions, etc., and he is still unmarried. Li Lin has no time, no interest, and no urgent pressure to solve his own housing problem.
Most of the problems are in the office
You can sleep on a chair, or hang a steel wire in a military dormitory that looks like a mountain of garbage. (The captain of the SS once tried to imitate this unique sleeping method, but failed. You don't have to be a dragon to sleep on a rope.) There is really no need to waste time and money.
Go get a facility that you have little chance of using.
As a result, that night, after Li Lin carried a few drunkards back to the military dormitory, he had to spend some time tidying up the empty room. Then he moved the drunkards to the bed one by one, covered them with blankets, and then returned
He went to sleep in his own [haunted house] filled with various documents, reports and bottles.
"Perhaps it's time to buy an estate and find a spouse?"
The soliloquy reached the ears of the saluting guard on duty, and the glass in the communication room was immediately sprayed black with the mouthfuls of coffee.
In fact, there is nothing shocking about this statement, it is just a bit too sudden...
There are many conflicts between Li Lin and the conservatives, but they will never hold back each other on major issues such as increasing the population, increasing the marriage rate and the birth rate.
The fertility rate of elves is not high in the first place. It has entered urbanization and industrialization with a small population base. It is already difficult to industrialize. If it gets infected with the disease of affluence such as [low birthrate], it will not be far away.
The Council and Li Lin have formulated many strategies for this, such as preferential policies in housing subsidies and tax exemptions for newlyweds; awarding the title of "Glorious Mother" and bonuses to women who have more children; and various public service advertisements. Get married and have children to repay the country. Radical elders also demand that the standard of marriageable age be further lowered and that provisions for those who do not get married be added to the law, stipulating that those who have not been married for three years after the legal marriage age must serve in the military and must not refuse. Have to pay heavy fines.
What's more, some openly proposed the establishment of a "Forced Marriage Law", which would arrest those who refuse to marry and send them to hard labor camps for forced labor education...
I have to say that for the sake of the next generation and the future generations, the Council will not give up any of them, whether it is face or anything else.
When the overall social atmosphere is so harsh on singles, it must be said that it is very strange that Li Lin still remains a single virgin.
With Li Lin's appearance, status, and property, it is not difficult to find a marriage partner. As long as his marriage advertisement is broadcast through the broadcast system, a team of young girls to mature wives can be formed in less than half an hour. An army of conscripts, followed by a large group of security personnel...
For the sake of social harmony and the happiness of many families, it is better not to do this kind of thing.
Anyway, Brunhil will help with the child's affairs for the time being. There is no need to worry about it for a while.
Putting life issues on the agenda, Li Lin opened the office door.[
"Good morning! Your Excellency, Colonel!"
The captain of the Guards gave a hearty salute and greeting. He held a clean white cloth under his left arm. The vase on the finished desk behind him had been replaced with fresh roses. The blood-red flowers were blooming with the color of life.
"Good morning, Nidhogg."
Li Lin returned the gift with a smile and walked directly to his desk to deal with the accumulated official business.
Nidhogg performed his work in silence - placing a rose on Li Lin's desk every day, and then changing clean white sheets for the officers who lacked the concept of comfortable life.
Maybe Li Lin never noticed that even the vase with gold ornaments was chosen by Nidhogg.
The hard quill kept dancing on the documents, and the slight rustling sound lasted for about an hour, and then stopped. After pressing the bell, secretaries who specialized in clerical work rushed in and moved away the mountain-like pile of documents. , after the last secretary closed the soundproof wooden door, Nidhogg locked the door.
The SS team opened several tightly wrapped boxes one by one. Inside were various dolls or puppets. Nidhogg held a small list in his left hand and put these small toys that were incompatible with the green color of the army. Arranged in order, the semicircular seating layout of an opera house appeared in front of Li Lin.
I took out my pocket watch and saw that the second hand was at the number 6.
"Let's get started."
Sitting in front of a 3-meter-long desk, with the refreshing autumn breeze blowing in, the long-planned evil fraud plan was about to enter its first gathering of all the conspirators, including him.
When the second hand and minute hand all coincide with 12, all the dolls flash at different positions with the magnificent light refracted through the crystal when the magic spell is working. The communication gems built into the toys are all activated at ten o'clock in the morning.
ps: Quiz Little Theater
Nidhogg: The colonel's sheets are stained! You made me... you made me shoot!
Roland: This is not how humans should die!
Li Lin: You two play with water guns and go outside. My place is flooded with water!
Roland: Maybe it’s because yesterday’s questions were too difficult. The only one who answered correctly was [Technical Lieutenant Colonel Yang Hai], [Lin Cup is a Cat], book friends, keep up the hard work!
Nidhogg: Today's question is: 1. What is the prototype of the elves' military song? What does reh mean? 2. Where does the joke "The colonel's sheets are stained!" come from? Please act quickly!
