Chapter 50: First Day at Work
: Burrenwich, the largest settlement center city in the eastern part of the empire.
It covers a total area of 1,200 square kilometers, and the urban area alone has a wide space of nearly 300 square kilometers.
Even before Ronald traveled through, this was a large city with a large area.
Among them, there are even more than 300,000 permanent residents!
Given the times the world is living in, it’s almost self-evident what this means.
However, unlike what Ronald had expected, Berenwich was not a completely industrialized city.
The existence of the natural barrier of Yoiz Forest made this city completely isolated from the neighboring countries in the past, and it was located in the safe belly of the empire. More than a hundred years of peace have made this place the most preferred vacation spot for the Grid nobles.
Therefore, resort culture and leisure city are the construction ideas.
The mayor of Burrenwich in recent years has strictly divided the location and number of industrialized areas, which has made the city's focus more focused on arts, entertainment, and various new and interesting things.
As a city developed in such a place, the local culture naturally inherited this situation.
Most of the residential areas in Burrenwich are occupied by one household. Even young people who rent a house have the right to take care of their own balcony garden.
Take the house Ronald rents as an example.
He rented a room on the second floor of a private boarding house at 12 deps and 6 naars per day, a price slightly higher than the average price. It has an independent balcony and bathroom, totaling 40 square meters. Private event space.
Generally speaking, the daily rent for a boarding house with breakfast in Burrenwich is around 7 deps and 6 nar; while the price of a boarding house like Ronald is usually 3 deps more expensive than a boarding house, which is 10 Dep 6 Nar daily.
Of course, the cheapest accommodation is not included here.
If you have to look for it, there are plenty of cheap accommodations in 4 Depp.
Speaking of which, we have to mention Greed’s monetary policy.
The more common currency nomenclature in the world is basically divided into two types: [personal nomenclature] and [national nomenclature]. Like most countries, Greed's currency naming adopts the [national nomenclature] that can symbolize the country.
Officially issued currencies fall into three categories.
There is one main currency [Gert], and two auxiliary currencies [Depp] and [Nar], among which 1 [Gert] is equal to 20 [Dep], which totals 240 [Narr].
If converted, it includes the cost of meals and laundry.
Ronald needs to spend 4 to 5 gold a week.
The money spent every day is even a huge amount of money for poor people!
The reason why he dares to be so lavish in life is actually thanks to Arida's help.
Take on the identity of a famous actor.
Ordinary living expenses are nothing to her!
Even Ronald's new job was obtained within half an hour after Alida came forward.
It feels like eating soft rice. To be honest,
it’s really good!
After getting off the train, after just complaining and negotiating, I got a decent job at Burrenwich Railway Station as 'Miss Alida's childhood savior'.
——Clock Proofreader.
This job sounds simple, but it is also troublesome if it is complicated.
In short, because the Greed Empire spans a very vast area, various railway stations, especially large railway stations like Burrenwich, have naturally become important nodes on the mainland's transportation network.
With frequent train schedules and travel times, it is necessary to arrange many clocks with different times according to geographical location.
At the same time, due to the limitations of the production technology of the times, most of the hands of these clocks will have some subtle deviations.
The job of the clock corrector is to calibrate them according to the situation.
It is a steam train after all.
Even if it is a few seconds faster or a few seconds faster at night, for people of this era, it is actually not a big problem. As long as you pay attention to the problem of staggering the train tracks in time, don't let a tragic collision happen.
So Ronald's job was really easy!
If he wanted, he could even do it for just half an hour a week.
During this half hour, I basically wound up the clock.
And it was the clockwork for those little clocks in his office.
The giant clock outside is actually managed by specialized personnel, and it is not something Ronald needs to take care of.
Such a relaxing job.
Anyone with common sense understands what it means.
In the previous three days, Ronald had completed the identity registration in Burrenwich, as well as familiar terrain and other trivial matters. The mysterious identity registration problem was also solved with Swift's help.
Even the strange situation in the small town at the beginning of the time travel was reported to the management personnel of the mysterious side when registering his identity.
If this kind of thing is handled by professionals, there will definitely be no problems.
And today is Ronald's first day at work.
Bang--
suddenly, there was a soft sound outside the door downstairs in the morning.
This is what happened after today's "Shoreline Morning News" was put in the mailbox.
Ronald, who was sitting in the room, put down the tea cup in his hand and realized that it was time to go out.
After all, it's the first official day of work.
No matter what, I have to leave a good first impression on my new colleagues. After all, according to his idea, he will have to stay in this city for a while.
Opening the door, Ronald immediately walked downstairs.
In the early morning, Ms. Hudson, the landlady of the apartment, was cleaning in an apron.
Hearing Ronald going out, she smiled towards the second floor and said,
"Mr. Ronald, you're leaving so early."
"Don't you have some breakfast?"
"I put toasted bread by the fireplace. There is also boiled tea."
He waved to the landlady, and Ronald smiled back:
"Thank you, I won't use it today."
"I have to go out to the station."
Until Ronald walked to the door. , the landlady behind who was still cleaning spoke again:
"If you want to go out, you can read today's morning newspaper." "
Just remember to bring it back."
"Okay!"
responded to the landlady, Ronald was there He pulled out the newspaper at the door of the apartment and stopped.
"."
"Did I forget something?"
After thinking for a while, Ronald didn't remember anything important that he had yet to deal with.
Shaking his head, he left the apartment.
There are a large number of horse-drawn carriages in Burrenwich. The price is 1 dep for the first three kilometers and 5 nar for each additional kilometer thereafter.
Fortunately, the station was not too far from Ronald's carefully selected residence, and even walking on foot would only take less than a quarter of an hour.
On the way to work, he even said hello to the neighbors in the residential area he had met in the past two days.
A stranger seeing this might even mistake Ronald for a local resident.
Soon, Burrenwich station arrived.
Burrenwich Railway Station is not at the same level as the two towns where the Dongfeng stopped before. Because it receives various aristocratic merchants all year round, as a railway station with the same city appearance, the construction and decoration standards are definitely second to none.
Passengers are constantly coming and going, and patrolling guards can be seen everywhere. The spacious and clean station square is full of bustling scenes.
Ronald entered through the station gate and quickly followed the flow of people to the front desk.
Sitting behind the service desk, the receptionist with a formal smile is at work.
"Hello, I'm Ronald who is here to report today."
"I am responsible for correcting clocks."
"Can you please tell me how to get there?"
"Hello."
The first time I saw Ronald , the receptionist smiled.
Such a young and handsome blond guy is quite rare even in her job.
It would be even better if this was one of my future colleagues.
Pointing to Ronald's left side, she continued:
"Go to the left and go up another staircase to the end. After the conference room on the second floor, there are some rooms with door numbers. That's where you will work. "
Of course, having said that, I have a kind suggestion."
Ronald raised his eyebrows:
"Please tell me."
Then, the receptionist showed a bright smile:
"If you work at the station, you can get to know yourself first. Future colleagues."
"Just like me."
"Maria Norma."
Ronald smiled:
"Nice to meet you, Miss Maria."
He briefly chatted with the young lady at the front desk. , and then he walked to his work unit.
"Hiss——"
He only took two steps.
Ronald suddenly took a breath and his expression suddenly changed!
My waist hurts, it just really hurts!
He remembered that he had forgotten something when he went out.
After a week, the damn snow toad pus capsule in Montenegro finally lost its function.
That's right.
That thing can relieve pain, but it doesn't heal injuries!
The pain of soft tissue damage returned to his body, and he almost couldn't help but crawl to the ground.
Good guy,
this is my first day at work, am I going to be absent from work?
He persisted and sat on the bench in the lounge.
Ronald covered his face with newspapers, feeling that life was full of hardships.
[Why do so many people today say they are afraid that my book will be gone?]
[Are the authors of Qidian so wild now? ]
[If you can’t make money, why don’t you cut up the books? 】
