"Let's go eat something first, and then I'll take you there." Gaba smiled dotingly, she turned her head and glanced around.
"Sister, no, I don't want it anymore." Nuo Yue raised her head and said in a small voice, "It's too expensive to eat outside, let's go to the place you mentioned, and we'll go home to eat after we're done."
"It's okay, I don't go out to eat often." Gaba said relaxedly, she found that the place is a library, where you can rent books, and even buying books is very cheap.
Compared with a book outside that costs hundreds of copper coins or silver coins, the books in the library are really much cheaper.She knows that her younger sister likes to read books, and this library is really the most suitable for her.
"Then what to eat?" Nuo Yue asked curiously, she also likes to eat outside, or she likes the atmosphere.
"How about going to that noodle shop?" Gaba pointed to the noodle shop not far away. That shop had opened a while ago, and she had never eaten there. She heard that it was delicious and the price was not very expensive.
"Noodle shop? Elder sister, what is a noodle shop?" Nuo Yue asked in surprise. It was the first time she had heard of this word. It was a strange name, just like that pizza shop, although she had never been to that pizza shop or eaten it. Had pizza.
"I don't know either." Gaba said awkwardly, she also heard all about it.
In this era, there is no such thing as noodles. After all, even the basic food crop of wheat is not enough to eat, so what energy is there to make noodles.
"Sister, will it be expensive?" Nuo Yue asked worriedly, she looked at the long queue of people outside the noodle shop, the business is really good.
"It shouldn't be expensive. I heard that there are noodles at any price." Gaba hesitated. She heard that the cheapest noodles seemed to only cost five steel coins.
The two lined up obediently. Fortunately, they went out early, and at the moment they were queuing up, there were dozens of people behind them, all of whom were queuing up to eat noodles.
"Old Katou, what kind of noodles are you eating today?"
"Hey... this time I decided to eat a bowl of mutton noodles. I heard that mutton is very delicious."
"Huh? Old Katou, are you making money? You actually ordered mutton noodles, and that would cost two copper coins for a bowl."
"I'll order a small piece of meat, just to taste it."
"That also costs a copper coin. It seems that my sister-in-law gave you too many coins."
"..."
Jiaba and Nuoyue listened quietly to the discussions around them, most of them were talking about noodles, which gave them a certain idea.
Half an hour later, it was finally the turn of Gaba and Nuo Yue. There were two waiters standing at the entrance of the noodle shop, one of whom was a female Beastkin of the Rat tribe.
"Welcome to the noodle shop, are there two people?" the rat waiter asked politely.
"Yes." Gaba replied, she scanned the noodle restaurant and found that it was full of people.
"Please follow me." The Rat Clan waiter whispered, turned around and led the way, and came to the window on the second floor, where there was a small table for two people.
"Two, please sit here." The Rat Clan waiter said.
"Okay." Gaba carefully put Nuo Yue down, and then sat down by herself.
"This is the menu." The Rat Clan waiter put down a menu, and there was a flash of abnormality in her pupils. She saw that the Bear Clan Beastkin was a disabled person.
She sighed in her heart, fortunately it was in Sheba City, in other cities, most of the disabled Beastkin would be abandoned and starve to death, it was impossible for them to come to the noodle shop to eat noodles like now.
"Thank you." Nuo Yue thanked softly, took the menu and looked at it.
There are only three types of noodles on the first page, namely lamb soup noodles, pork bone noodles, and mixed noodles.These three kinds of noodles are five steel coins, which is the cheapest type.
The second page costs a copper coin, and there are more than a dozen types of noodles, such as mutton soup noodles, mutton fried noodles, braised pork noodles and so on.
The next few pages are even more expensive, all for the price of a few copper coins, and there are more ingredients, such as fried wild eggs, grilled lamb chops, and so on.
"Sister, what do you want to eat?" Nuo Yue handed the menu to Gaba, and she just glanced at the menu behind and didn't look at it, after all, she couldn't afford it.
"Let me take a look." Gaba took the menu, flipped through the menu, glanced at the back, and stopped reading.
"You can order a larger portion of mutton soup noodles, so that you can eat more." The rat waiter kindly reminded, "In terms of price, I will also give three more steel coins."
A portion of noodles in the noodle shop is calculated according to the portion size of the human race, and the Beastkin will definitely not be able to eat enough, and the larger portion is designed for the Beastkin, and the price is preferential.
"Okay, let's have two larger servings of mutton soup noodles." Gaba closed the menu and said.
"Okay, wait a minute, the larger portion of mutton soup noodles will be here soon." The rat waiter put away the menu and left.
"Sister, it's good for everyone to work here." Nuo Yue looked enviously at the Rat waiter who was walking away, who looked very beautiful in uniform.
"Yes, there are Beastkin in many places of work now." Gaba said with emotion, it is because of this that Sheba City makes her feel friendly.
"Sister, I, I..." Nuoyue hesitated, and after seeing Gaba's encouraging eyes, she gritted her teeth and said, "Sister, I also want to work."
"Eh??" Gaba was stunned for a while, and it took a while to react, frowning and thinking.
She couldn't directly say that it was impossible. After all, if a disabled Beastkin was looking for a job, how could someone hire him, but being too direct would hurt my sister's heart.
Chapter 0496 Library.
Nuo Yue spends her days in the room, sitting by the window, looking at the scenery outside and listening to the sounds outside. She is envious of people who can walk like that.
She can't even go to the toilet, and she still needs to use that kind of chamber pot, and she drinks as little water as possible, and even eats as little as possible for three meals, so that she can use less chamber pot, after all, it smells bad.
"..." Seeing her sister's embarrassed expression, Nuo Yue hurriedly waved her hands, and forced a smile, "Sister, I was just joking."
"Let me ask for you." Gaba's brown eyes flashed a trace of pity, she knew her sister's suffering.
Gaba felt that keeping Nuo Yue at home was really unfair to her. Although it was safe, it lost a lot.
"Really?" Nuo Yue's eyes widened. She really wanted to help her sister. Every time she saw her sister's weaving palms and thick calluses, she felt very ashamed. She was the one who dragged her sister down.
"Really, I'll ask for you later." Gaba pursed her lips, she didn't know if there were still people in that place.
"Great." Nuo Yue smiled happily, with anticipation in her brown eyes.
"Tap..."
The Rat Clan waiter came over with a tray in both hands. Two bowls the size of human heads were placed in front of Gaba and Nuo Yue.
"Enlarged portion of mutton soup and vegetarian noodles." The rat waiter said softly, and handed over two pairs of chopsticks and spoons.
"Thank you!" Nuo Yue responded with a smile.
"Please take it easy." The Rat Clan waiter said politely, then turned and went downstairs.
"It smells so good." Gaba pouted her nose, looking at the bright yellow noodles in the big bowl, she felt like her saliva was about to flow out.
"Suck it~~"
Nuo Yue had already started eating, and she was shocked when she took the first bite of noodles, it was so delicious.There is a strong mutton flavor in the soup, and the noodles are chewy. Eating noodles and drinking soup is simply a great enjoyment in life.
"Suck it..."
Gaba also sucked up the noodles, this kind of situation is normal in the noodle shop, most people have no time to talk, they are all eating the noodles, the sound of "suction" can be heard non-stop.
Twenty minutes later, with a sound of 'exhale', Gaba and Nuo Yue put down the big bowls together, and the soup was drunk by both of them.
"Nuoyue, are you full?" Gaba asked softly, she was % full.
"I'm full." Nuo Yue patted her stomach, she ate a little more than at home, and she was probably full.
"Then let's go, don't close the door late." Gaba got up and said, and squatted down in front of Nuo Yue.
"Hmm." Nuo Yue shook her round bear ears, pursed her lips and lay on her sister's back.She once remembered that her sister said that she would be her feet forever.
"Ta Tata..."
Gaba carried Nuo Yue to the first floor. After paying the bill, she left the noodle shop and walked towards the Security Department. The library is located near the Security Department.
"Huh? Sister, why is there a new store opened there?" Nuo Yue exclaimed in surprise, she looked at the store next to the security department, and there was a plaque hanging on it.
"Sheba City Newspaper?" Gaba followed her gaze and said in astonishment, "Huh? This store didn't exist yesterday."
"Newspaper? It's another strange name." Nuo Yue muttered, and said curiously, "Sister, does this store also sell food?"
"I don't know." Gaba shook her head, she had never heard of the word 'newspaper'.
"Sister, there are people around there, are they shopping?" Nuo Yue asked curiously, her brown eyes staring at those people in line.
"Let's go to that place first, and come back for a stroll when we get home." Gaba shook her head, carrying Nuo Yue on her back and walking forward.
"Okay." Nuo Yue responded obediently. Before she went out, she had memorized most of the sights and shops. This must be her talent.
When God takes something away, it will always give something back, and Nuo Yue does not have her sister's strong body, but she has a bright mind.
"Ta Tata..."
Jiaba came to the library with Nuoyue on her back. This store opened three days ago. On the first day of opening, she saw the writing on the book and went in to read it.
"The library?" Nuo Yue murmured, her brown eyes slightly brightened, she immediately understood why her sister brought her here, books, one of her favorites.
"Go in and have a look." Gaba carried her in without waiting for Nuo Yue's answer.
After entering the library, the only word is 'Quiet', very quiet, without the noise of other shops.This made Nuo Yue's eyes shine, and she stared at the big word 'quiet' on the wall.
There are many bookshelves in the library, but there are only books on one shelf. Nuo Yue also saw a sign with the words 'heavy money for books' written on it.Below the font is a counter, a girl is working, and there are two or three people queuing up in front of the counter, all of them holding books in their hands.
"Sister, is this a place that sells books?" Nuo Yuezui whispered into Gaba's ear, "Are the books here expensive?"
"It's a place that sells books. I heard that you can also borrow books." Gaba also whispered, "Let's go over and see what books are available."
"Okay." Nuo Yue said expectantly.
Gaba came to the bookshelf with Nuoyue on her back, and there were dozens of books on the shelf in front of her, most of which were duplicate books.
"A Book of Fairy Tales."
"One Hundred-Character Book of Annieghtenment."
"Twelve life philosophies to warn the world."
"..."
Nuo Yue looked at the books on the bookshelf. She had never read the books on them, and the titles of the books had never even been heard of, which made her eyes shine, and she wished she could take them all home.
"Nuoyue, the two of us will borrow one each to go home, so you will have two books to read." Gaba whispered.
"Borrowing books? Do you want coins?" Nuo Yue asked worriedly.
"No, I've already inquired. You need to pay ten copper coins as a deposit to borrow books. When you return the books, the coins will be returned to us."
With a serious face, Gaba said earnestly, "You can borrow books for ten days. If you don't return them after ten days, the book will be regarded as being bought. But next time you borrow a book, you will have to pay five times the deposit, and if you damage the book, you will be fined." The money to be seized."
"It's so cheap." Nuo Yue said in amazement, she looked at the bookshelf with glowing eyes, it was really great to be able to borrow books like this.
Chapter 0497 married together?
"Nuoyue, which two books do you want to choose?" Gaba turned her head and asked, looking at her sister's side face with a joyful smile.
"If you want the 'Fairy Tale Book' and the 'What is Ritual', you need these two." Nuo Yue quickly selected two books.
"Okay, I'll get it for you." Gaba nodded, supported Nuo Yue's hips with one hand, and reached for the book with the other. Soon both books were in her hands, and she handed them to Nuo Yue.
"Great, there are books to read." Nuo Yue held the books happily. She had read a lot of books before, but during the years of fleeing, she lost all the books she brought with her, so she didn't read any more.
Nuo Yue's parents are nobles. Although they are minor nobles in the Brutus Beastkin kingdom, they are also nobles. It is no problem to buy some books. In addition, her mother is a fox Beastkin and likes to read very much.For Jiaba and Nuoyue, the elder sister followed her father more, and the younger sister followed her mother more.
Fox Beastkin are generally smarter and play the role of military advisers among the major Beastkin forces.And Nuo Yue's mother is still a scholar, she is very profound in terms of IQ and knowledge, while Nuo Yue has been influenced by her mother since she was a child, and her personality is more like her mother's love of reading and so on.
"Let's go through the procedures for borrowing books." Gaba walked to the Nuoyuewei counter with her back on her back.
There was no one at the counter now, only the two of them, and two or three librarians and staff were left in the entire library.
After all, there are still too few people who read books. For some ordinary people, reading books is really boring, and there is no real shadow puppet show.
"Hi, are you borrowing books? Or buying books?" the counter staff asked politely.
"We need to go through the procedures for borrowing books." Gaba said quickly, and handed over the two books in Nuo Yue's hands.
"Yes, please show your ID card." The employee took the book, took out the registration book, and wrote down the serial number and title of the book.
"Okay." Gaba took out the ID card from her pocket and put it down, then groped for Nuo Yue's buttocks with her right hand, took out Nuo Yue's ID card from her pocket and handed it to the staff.
"Please pay a deposit of copper coins, and the book must be returned within ten days..." After the employee took the ID card, he introduced the conditions for borrowing books based on Balabala's introduction.
"Okay, we got it." Gaba took out twenty copper coins from her pocket. Fortunately, the salary was paid a few days ago, so she was allowed to carry so many coins with her.
"Please keep the receipt. When returning the book, you must bring the receipt together, so that the deposit can be refunded." The employee handed the receipt copied on carbon paper to Gaba, along with two books.
"Okay." Gaba quickly took the receipt and the book, and handed them over to Nuo Yue. Her brown eyes flickered, and she wanted to ask if there were still people working here?
"What can you do?" The employee looked at Gaba who was stunned, and said with a smile, "Is there anything I can do for you?"
"That..." Gaba pursed her lips, gritted her teeth slightly, and said, "I want to ask, is the library still hiring people?"
"Huh?" The employee was stunned for a moment, looked at the two of them strangely, shook his head and said, "I don't know about this, but I guess I shouldn't need it. After all, there are no people reading in the library, and the current number of employees is just right. ."
"That's it." Gaba replied a little disappointed, nodded to the staff, and walked out of the library with the silent Nuo Yue on her back.
"Sister, it's okay." Nuo Yue pursed her lips in disappointment, her brown eyes were slightly red, she wrapped her arms around Gaba's neck, and smiled reluctantly, "I have a book to read now, and it's good to stay at home what."
"I'll go to the letter express tomorrow and ask. That place needs people who can write. Nuoyue's handwriting is so beautiful, and I will definitely recruit you." Gaba raised her voice slightly, she didn't want her sister to feel inferior.
"Sister, no need, I can't walk, and then I have to ask others to help me." Nuo Yue shook her head and looked up at the evening sky. Staying at home will not cause trouble to others, and there is no need to let my sister Worry.
"This..." Gaba was at a loss for words, she knew what her sister said was right, it's okay to bother others once or twice, as it will become annoying after a long time.
"Ta Tata..."
Gaba moved her feet. This was an unsolvable problem. Nuoyue had to carry it on her back when she went out, and she had to help her take a bath... At this moment, Gaba's thoughts drifted away. She was thinking about what to do after Nuoyue?How to get married?Maybe she married someone, and let the other party marry Nuo Yue by the way?
"Sister? What's the matter with you?" Nuo Yue tilted her head and looked at Gaba's face worriedly, blushing for a while, frowning for a while, and in just a short while, there were seven or eight expressions...
"Ah?" Gaba turned her head in a daze, looked at Nuo Yue with flushed cheeks, turned her head back abruptly, strode forward, and said falteringly, "It's nothing, nothing."
"Huh? Really?" Nuo Yue frowned, her brown eyes lightened slightly, she thought of a possibility, and quickly asked, "Sister, do you have someone you like? Who is it?"
"Cough, cough, cough..." Gaba choked, and stared at Nuo Yue dumbfounded. How could this be associated with someone she likes?
"Sister? Who is it? You actually fell in love with it?" Nuo Yue asked in surprise.
Gaba's performance made her feel that this possibility is very high. After all, my sister works in a workshop, and with so many people working together, she will definitely meet an excellent man.
"No, no, you are thinking too much." Gaba shook her head quickly, how could there be someone she likes?She can't even weave cloth, but still want her to like it?
"Really?" Nuo Yue narrowed her eyes suspiciously, carefully observing Gaba's expression.
"Really." Gaba nodded affirmatively.
"Sister, what kind of person do you like?" Nuo Yue didn't find a flaw, so she changed her mind and asked, "What kind of man makes your heart flutter?"
"A person like the Lord of the City." Gaba said without thinking. In her mind, the Lord of the City is the kind of chasing existence, just like an idol.
"Huh? How could you be someone like the Lord City Master?" Nuo Yue widened her brown eyes in surprise, and then said with a smile, "Then sister, you have to be careful that you will be lonely forever. The City Lord may only have such a magical person in the world."
"Then you are miserable too." With a smile on the corner of Gaba's mouth, she teased in Nuo Yue's bewildered eyes, "When I get married in the future, I will marry you too. Since I can't get married, then we will grow old alone together. Bar."
"Ah? Sister, why did you say this suddenly? I'm still young." Nuo Yue reproached softly.
"You're going to get married too." Gaba said naturally, "And you're 15 years old, so you're not young anymore."
"Don't listen." Nuo Yue blushed slightly, pointed at the newspaper office with her pouting mouth, changed the subject and shouted, "Sister, let's go to that place."
Chapter 0498 Interview.
Sheba City Newspaper opened a day ago, but it is still in the preparation stage. The newspaper is already printing, but it lacks management personnel, news sources, etc.
Today is the time for the recruitment interview, and the treatment is very good, attracting many people who know security to line up for the interview.
This is also what Gaba and Nuo Yue saw now. There was a long line outside the newspaper office, at least there were more than 50 people, all of them were attracted by the work of the newspaper office.
"Let's go, let's take a closer look." Gaba walked to the newspaper office with Nuo Yue on her back.
"Sister, where is this newspaper office? Why are there so many people queuing up?" Nuo Yue asked in a low voice.
"I'll ask..." Gaba just wanted to find someone to ask, when she saw the notice posted on the door of the newspaper office, staring blankly at the words on it.
"Sister? What's the matter?" Nuo Yue followed her eyes curiously, and was also stunned, muttering to herself, "Is this impossible?"
Notice:
Sheba City Newspaper recruited staff and recruited two reporters.Requirements: Literacy, able to write family letters proficiently.Age 15 to 50 years old, monthly salary copper coins.
Recruit an editor-in-chief who can read and approve good or bad articles, aged 15 to 50, with a monthly salary of one silver coin.
...
Gaba and Nuoyue were shocked by the treatment from above. The maximum monthly salary can be one silver coin, which is Gaba's salary for more than half a year.
"Nuoyue, why don't you give it a try? You can read and read a lot of books, maybe you will be attracted to it?" Gaba turned her head and whispered.
"Okay, I'll try it." Nuo Yue gritted her teeth, her bear ears shaking.She was really moved by the monthly salary of one silver coin. If they could really have one silver coin a month, then they could have their own house.
"Then line up." Gaba lined up with Nuo Yue behind her back, listening to the conversations in the line.
"I heard that dozens of people have already gone in, and all of them failed without exception."
"Sure, those people only know a few words, and they want to go in to try their luck, and they don't want to know who is inside."
"Huh? Who's in there?"
"Of course the city lord is in there, how can those people, the city lord, like them?"
"Ah? So it's the city lord, so why did you apply for the job?"
"Silly, I don't dare to think about that reporter or editor-in-chief, but I can still try the cleaning job."
"Wow! You are so cunning, very good, I want this position."
"Damn it, how could you..."
"..."
Jiaba and Nuoyue looked at each other, they didn't expect the city lord to be inside, which made them a little nervous for no reason.
Time is ticking, inside the newspaper office.
"Ta Tata..."
HAD once again watched a person leave, and rubbed his brows helplessly. There is no qualified reporter candidate, let alone an editor-in-chief candidate, which is normal.
But there is no one who makes him feel that he has cultivated, which is a bit helpless. You can't start cultivating from a child, right?Then he will have to write press releases for a few years. He can't bear to write manuscripts every day. It is common for him to stay up all night without inspiration.
"Master, why don't we just forget about it today and come back to recruit tomorrow." Mina said softly. The young master has seen hundreds of people since he finished his meal at noon.
"How many people are there outside?" HAD asked lightly. If it doesn't work today, he will decide to postpone the newspaper and not open it for the time being, until he finds a suitable candidate.
"There are thirteen more people." Mina said hastily, she saw a familiar figure in the queue, maybe that girl can satisfy the young master, it's just a problem with her feet... Sigh.
"Let them come in, and go back after reading." HAD waved his hand.
"Yes." Mina nodded, and nodded to the soldiers standing by the door.
"Gag..."
The soldier opened the door to let the next interviewer in.
"Go in." The soldier said to the two people outside the door.
"Yes." Gaba replied earnestly. She and Nuo Yue had been waiting outside for an hour, and finally it was their turn.
"Don't be nervous, be normal, it's okay to fail." Gaba reassured.
"Okay." Nuo Yue let out a long breath. This was her first experience in life, and she was still facing the city lord.
"Let's go." Gaba carried Nuo Yue into the room, and saw two people inside.
"Oh? Is it an Beastkin this time?" HAD raised his eyebrows. This was the first pair of Beastkin to come here, making his black eyes flicker a few times.
"Please sit down, both of you." Mina said coldly.
"Yes." Gaba quickly replied, her palms were sweating, she put Nuo Yue on the chair, she stood behind her sister, took a peek at the city lord, then lowered her head.
Nuo Yue was even more nervous, holding two books tightly in her small hands, her palms were full of sweat, the bear's tail was shaking violently, and the bear's ears were even more nervously swinging back and forth.
HAD observed the two of them quietly, with the corners of his mouth raised, he said lightly, "Tell me about yourself."
"Ah?" Nuo Yue was stunned for a moment, raised her head to glance at the city lord, then quickly lowered her head, and said softly and softly, "I, my name is Nuo Yue, and I am a bear clan Beastkin."
"My lord, my name is Gaba. I'm Nuoyue's older sister. I'm working in the weaving workshop." Gaba raised her head, finished speaking quickly with her mouth closed, and then lowered her head again.
"Don't be nervous, I don't know how to eat people." HAD propped his cheek with one hand, looked at the book in Nuo Yue's hand, and asked softly, "Who are you applying for? What positions are you applying for?"
"It's me, me, I'm here to apply for the editor-in-chief." Nuo Yue said softly.
"Editor-in-chief?" HAD raised his eyebrows, which was quite interesting, and then asked, "How old are you this year?"
"15 years old." Nuo Yue replied in a low voice.
"How many words do you know? Can you understand the two books in your hand?" HAD asked calmly, young people can cultivate them.
"Knows a lot of characters. Except for rare characters, I know all other characters." Nuo Yue knew that she had started to enter the drama, and said quickly, "I just borrowed these two books and haven't read them yet."
"En!" HAD nodded in satisfaction, and the answer was quite honest. He took out a sheet of paper from the drawer with many words written on it, handed it over and said, "Read the words on it again."
"Yes." Nuo Yue picked up the paper and began to read...
"Are you disabled?" HAD asked lightly.
"Yes." Nuo Yue lowered her head even lower, and her voice was much lower.
Chapter 0499 two choices.
