Obligations of the elderly

"It's almost here." Xiliu stretched out, no matter how spacious the spaceship is, it's still a spaceship, after three days of flying, people will fall asleep.

That's right, "sleep".

Gong Si squinted at him, and said with a speechless expression: "You can really sleep, and you actually slept like this for three days. If you didn't get up on time when you eat, I would have thought something was wrong with you."

"Anyway, I don't have anything to do. I was busy for so many days before, so I just wanted to sleep more." Xiliu smiled and didn't care at all.

Gong Si shook his head, picked up his luggage and walked forward: "It can be seen that the saying that the elderly feel light is not entirely reasonable."

stream:……

After dragging his luggage and getting off the flying boat, Gong Si explored the surrounding scenery all the way.

When they came out of the airship, they were in the open air. The road was foggy and they couldn’t see anything. However, as they dragged their luggage and walked to a hall, the fog cleared a little and the surrounding scenery could finally be seen clearly. It's one o'clock.

This is an ordinary hall, not so much a flight port, but more like a train station, or a very old station, where people are bustling everywhere, with accents from all over the world.

These people are either carrying simple luggage, or carrying a full set of heavy advanced equipment. They have different clothes, skin colors and hair colors, but they all have two things in common: one is that they are quite capable users, and the other It is that they all have ambitious ambitions in their eyes.

A gold digger—Gong Si thought to himself.

Although the openness standard of the Black Earth Continent has declined compared to the past, those who dare to come here to pan for gold are always capable people with vigorous ambitions. They want to find their own opportunities in lands that have not been conquered by humans. Are they rich because of a discovery?Even, with a little more luck, they could even tear off a piece of land from the black earth continent and become the new ninth continent?

"Yes, I have to call uncle, we are here." Gong Si said, taking out his mobile phone, but only when he dialed his uncle's mobile phone number did he realize: Hey?No signal?

"What the hell? Isn't the signal of this company famous? Jiuzhou...no, the one that is used by Yazhou Tong is good." It has been a long time since I used this network operator, and it was the first time that Gong Si felt that their advertising words mistaken.

He took out his mobile phone and looked at it. Xiliu rubbed his chin: "You also said, it's the Eight Continents, the Black Earth Continent...even the town of Pontok itself isn't on any continent, right?"

Gong Si was dumbfounded.

That's right, the town of Pontoc is really not on any continent.The former Pudua Island was relatively close to it, but it also required the fastest flying ship to fly for two days, so one can imagine its remoteness.

To put it simply, it is actually a piece of land that exists alone in this world. Because the area is too small, it cannot be called a continent. It can only be called a town, and it is also a magical existence.

It seems that the operator did not make false advertisements, but in this way, they are really in trouble.

"It seems that they sell mobile network service cards over there. Let's go and have a look. Wouldn't it be good to buy two cards?" Xiliu took a good look at the place. There was a simple signboard in the southeast corner of the hall, which just happened to say "Sell Mobile" Network Service Card".

No wonder there are so many people over there. At first, Xiliu thought that there were people queuing up to go to the toilet or waiting in line for taxis!

↑

There is no way, the stations in general places, near the exits are indeed the two places with the most people queuing up.

But this is obviously not the case here. Just like them, almost everyone finds that their mobile phones have no signal as soon as they get off the boat. In this era, except for a very small number of people who don’t think it doesn’t matter if they don’t use their mobile phones, most people are quite dependent on their mobile phones. Look around , I saw this signboard at a glance, no, they came to line up as soon as they found it.

Gongsi and Xiliu also joined the queue. Unlike the frowning Gongsi, Xiliu still looks like the old god is there. In his eyes, any problem that can be solved with money is not a problem, but a short-term lack of signal That's all, just buy a new card, he brought a lot of money this time...

The stream was thinking so, and it was about to reach them, and because of this, they heard the loud voice of the person in front:

"What? Liu Shield can't be used here? You can only use the money here? Shit! What are you kidding—" Accompanied by the opponent's roar, Xiliu was dumbfounded.

Soon, they heard someone from another long queue next door yelling, "You have to use the money here for taxis? There is no exchange agency yet...how come there are such weird rules?"

"What do you think?" Gongsi obviously couldn't hear what the taxi driver said, but the old lady in front of them, who sold network service cards, said lazily: "If you have money, don't buy it. Besides, the recruitment area is on the left side of the lobby, go ahead, there are still many people queuing up behind."

After finishing speaking, the old lady stretched out her thin arms and waved them to the side.

"What the hell?! I have a lot of flow shields here. I'll pay three times, no, ten times the price. I don't believe you don't sell them..." The man who was driven away was obviously unwilling to leave like this. He slapped the sledgehammer on the table in front of the old lady. Obviously, he planned to use force to deter her.

The old lady didn't even lift her eyelids.

He stretched out his hand and flicked it in the direction of the man, a gust of wind blew by, and the man and his weapon - the sledgehammer were blown away in an instant, blowing straight into the thick fog outside, where the fog was completely covered by this The gust of wind blew away a lot, but it was only a matter of a moment. Soon, the thick fog came back again, and the old lady waved forward without raising her head: "Next."

However, obviously, the next person didn't have any local money, probably because he witnessed what happened to the man in front, so he left the line without the old lady chasing him.

There were many people who chose the same as him. In a blink of an eye, the people in front of them all disappeared, and when they turned their heads, there was no one behind them.

"It's such a strange place. You are not allowed to use the common currency flow shield outside, only the local currency is allowed, and there is also a recruitment office... Could it be that there is a shortage of labor in this place?" Xiliu said, touching the card in his hand, thinking Not good, lack of preparation, is Master Xiliu going to work for the first time in his life?However, part-time work seems to be a good thing, just like Ah Si, he is very happy to work part-time, and the big head is also...

Just as Xiliu was thinking, he suddenly found that Gongsi had walked forward.

Taking out a crumpled green note from his pocket, Xiliu heard him say to the old lady: "Buy two cards, is it enough?"

Apparently enough.

With this money, Gong Si not only successfully bought two cards from the old lady, but also got new banknotes and a few coins.

Watching Gong Si put away the change again, handing him a card, and then starting to change the card on his mobile phone, Xiliu couldn't help but ask, "A Si, where did you get the money here? I didn’t even know there was local money here!”

Gong Si just glanced at him, and said to him expressionlessly: "On the plane, when I bought the flight meal that you said was terrible."

Gong Si bought one for himself at the very beginning, and then, didn't he see that the saleswoman's business was not good?He couldn't sell anything, so he simply bought something from the other party every time the other party came over, and he even gave it to Xiliu once, but Xiliu said it was not good, so he insisted on eating the lunch box he made, so later the palace The four only bought their own, the old rules, because the other party didn't have the money shield to give change, the palace and the four could only pay the money shield, and then get the change in local currency from the other party.

After three days, the palace has accumulated a lot of local change. Although the amount is not large, it adds up to a lot. No, it comes in handy now.

In front of Xiliu with his mouth wide open, when Gongsi called again, the mobile phone had a signal, and he successfully contacted his uncle. Gongsi also got an address from his uncle. Immediately afterwards, he took Xiliu Go to the empty taxi waiting area, get into the first taxi directly, and walk away in front of everyone in the hall.

***

"That's right, you are lucky to get local money from the very beginning." Shunli met his uncle, sat together in the hotel restaurant reserved by him, and ordered two meals. The uncle said while watching the two of them eating .

↓

The money in the palace was just enough to pay the taxi fare. Fortunately, they had already met the uncle, otherwise they might not even be able to afford dinner and accommodation.

"It was the saleswoman who thanked you for your kindness, so I specially found local money for you." The uncle also analyzed: "Many newcomers who have just come to the Black Earth Continent to pan for gold are stuck in the airship port. On the one hand, there are If you want to embarrass the newcomers, on the one hand, there is a lack of labor, and those who deliberately do not provide currency exchange services, but those who stay there are masters in martial arts, and they are not afraid of those newcomers looking for trouble."

"So, there is a currency exchange service here?" Xiliu heard the key words.

Nodding, the uncle pointed to the cash machine at the corner of the hotel: "The machine over there is fine. In fact, as long as you leave the flying ship port, you can find a cash machine that can provide exchange services. However, as long as you are at the ship port, Not really."

The stream was speechless.

After quickly finishing his meal, Xiliu hurried to the cash machine to operate it. After refilling his wallet with green local bills, he came back with a sigh of relief.

It didn't come back in vain, and Xiliu, who had become a rich man again, added some drinks for the three of them.

"The exchange rate here is really high, a full ratio of 1000 to 1. I have brought a lot of money, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to exchange much money at all." Xiliu said, looking at Gongsi: "The other party is really grateful You, according to this exchange rate, Ah Si, your food is free!"

"Although that taste... I don't want to give it to me for nothing." Xiliu commented after recalling the taste of the food given to him by the palace.

"That is to say, Xiliu, you bring enough money. Otherwise, for ordinary people, even if they bring Liudun to the cash machine to exchange for local money, I'm afraid they won't be able to change much. It's no different from nothing." The drink was drained: "Okay, it's getting late, I went up to rest, you are tired after three days of flying, take a rest, if you still have the energy to get up tomorrow, you can visit Pontok tomorrow Bar."

In short, although they almost ran into a little trouble at the beginning because they were not familiar with the local area, but because of the fate of the palace, they not only did not encounter the trouble they should have encountered, but also met their uncle smoothly and stayed in the hotel arranged by him Inside, think about those gold diggers who came over with them, they should still work there to make money, right?

Thinking about it this way, Gong Si suddenly felt that the food on the flying boat was actually not unpalatable, and that saleswoman was really a kind person who could help him in advance in this way silently.

Gong Si was only slightly moved at this time, but he soon realized that the help that the saleswoman provided him was not as simple as local money, and he also quickly understood what the uncle said lightly, "If you still have the energy to climb tomorrow What does it mean to get up."
