Dream Travel

Chapter 2 Is this a serious job?

There was nothing wrong with the information provided by the breakfast shop owner. The homeless people here were all considered local citizens, and the problem of unregistered residents was not a big deal in this city.

After completing civil registration, if you have lived in the local area for more than three months, have not committed any crimes, and have paid taxes, you will be a good citizen of the local area!

Cities during this period were very tolerant of outsiders, provided they truly intended to live there permanently.

But as an outsider, I don't have much experience in this city, so it's not easy to find a good job.

"It sounds like a good place to live. Why did you become homeless?"

Bai Mu was sure that these homeless men definitely did not have divorced wives.

"Aren't we just living the life of a fool?" The homeless people looked at each other and said, "This city has no shortage of people. We can do the work, so why don't we find someone with a better reputation?"

It turns out that his credibility is bankrupt.

"There's nothing for you to do now. Do you still have money?"

The homeless people showed sad and angry expressions. Who would become a homeless person if they have money?

"No more! We have to go pick up trash!" Several homeless people ran away in a hurry.

"I won't rob you again."

Bai Mu felt that he was being slandered. He fought back last night, but it was not easy to do anything today in broad daylight. Why were these homeless people so scared?

New intelligence has been obtained. It is not difficult to find the city hall. If outsiders here have no relatives to guarantee them and no money, then at the beginning they can basically only choose to sell their labor.

If he had a special skill, he could do something else, but the problem is that Bai Mu doesn't know much about this era and he is not good at history.

The mobile phone he carries with him has sufficient power, but the environment can easily cause him to be anxious about the battery. He has an encyclopedia of time travel information in his computer, but who would save that stuff on their phone for no reason?

The computer did not travel with him.

"So are we really going to move bricks?"

Bai Mu found the bulletin board that the homeless man mentioned. Recruitment information can be found there, but these recruitment information basically require "credibility".

Even some jobs involving carrying goods have corresponding requirements. You can't just go there if you want to, unless you don't care about the income. When you see those who don't care about the income, the homeless people will shake their heads.

But according to what those homeless people said, there are occasionally some special recruitment information here, and even people with unknown identities can participate - the bottom line is so low, so don't even think about whether it is formal or not.

However, the information above does not directly state this point. The key part is "unemployed people", and homeless people are also included in this range.

He actually found such recruitment information on it, and the recruited personnel were used for drug testing.

That's not a concern.

Other recruitment information...still moving bricks!
In this kind of notice board, most people would never get the chance to do jobs that are easy and profitable. The latest recruitment information that Bai Mu sees now is from yesterday.

Bai Mu found a special recruitment information, which required strong and courageous people, preferably those with special professions such as gunmen.

The recruitment period is four days, and the cleaning work involves cleaning a section of the sewer in Rota City. The daily salary ranges from 20 to 500 yuan. The value of currency in this place is very high.

Comparing the information obtained from buying breakfast and from the homeless, 1 yuan is roughly equivalent to 10 RMB in modern times, and there may be fluctuations.

So this daily wage is already very high.

Then there are... professionals?
Bai Mu grasped the key information. In modern cities, there are professional gunmen. The fact that they are called that means it is a legal profession.

Is there too much martial virtue here?

The recruitment information from two days ago had not expired. After noting the address above, Bai Mu set off. He wanted to find some clerical work. Since he could ignore the language problem here, which was abnormal, the education he received did not allow him to start moving bricks right away!

"Hello, I'm here to apply for a job." Bai Mu found the address provided in the recruitment information. Facing the burly receptionist, he appeared very polite.

The burly man took a look at Bai Mu and directly took out a form.

"Go fill out the form."

"Is it that simple? No assessment?" Bai Mu felt that the people in this place were too simple and honest.

"What kind of test is that? Just be strong." The sturdy man reached out and poked Bai Mu in the chest: "Are you brave?"

"big."

"Do you dare to hit someone?"

"I'm generally a reasonable person, but if you poke me again I'll hit you!"

"Hahaha, nice muscles, I'll give you an extra 10 yuan a day."

This sounded a bit insulting, but considering the prices in this world, Bai Mu picked up the pen next to him and started filling out the form.

The pen is a ballpoint pen with smooth ink flow.

Bai Mu deftly turned the pen in his hand a few times. Matt just glanced at it casually and then looked away.

When filling out forms, the white screen can write out the words of this world, but they feel very unfamiliar, just like the unfamiliar feeling when you suddenly have to write with a pen after typing on a keyboard for years.

"If this is a cheat, it's too common." After filling out the form, the burly man took a look and ignored the blank part.

"Bai Mu...are you good at chopping wood? Not bad. If you don't have a place to live, go to the dormitory over there. Meals are provided. I'll give you an extra 10 yuan a day, for a total of 120 yuan. It's government-guaranteed, and any part of a day will be rounded up to a full day. No problem, that's all. And my name is Matt."

"How much is the daily wage for someone with a gun?" Bai Mu was a little curious.

Matt casually said, "If you have a gun, it's 50 bucks more. If you want more, it depends on what kind of gun you have."

When we arrived at the dormitory, there were already quite a few people there, most of them were strong. Even if you didn't look strong enough, you wouldn't be easy to mess with because they had revolvers.

"More people are coming? I think we should have enough people." Someone said to his friend next to him.

My friend nodded. "Matt wants ten people, that's about it."

"Friends, I'm new here, can you share some experience with me?"

"What experience do you need to clean the sewers? All you need is courage." The person who spoke first looked at the white curtain.

He is about 1.85 meters tall and has a strong build, but he doesn't look like a worker. He looks more like an ordinary person from a well-off family.

"You should be looking for some rich landlady instead of doing street sweeping."

The only person in the dormitory with a gun followed up, saying, "Some of the landlords will welcome you too."

"Hahahaha." The others in the dormitory burst into laughter.

Bai Mu found an empty bed and sat down: "My talent does not allow me to go find the beautiful landlady right away."

"Then don't get scared to death later." Another 'scavenger' shuffled the cards beside his hand. "Want to gamble?"

"I have no money."

"You have nice shoes, you could use that."

Bai Mu shook his head: "How about we have a fight?"

Seeing Bai Mu's stronger figure than his, the gambler who proposed the bet curled his lips and disagreed. He was sure to win in playing cards, but he couldn't say for sure in a fight.

Besides, there are almost ten people here. It would be a waste if Matt drove them away because of injuries.

Not long after, Matt brought the last person to the dormitory: "Everyone, we have enough people. We will set off in two hours!"

Cleaning the sewers shouldn't be difficult as long as you can bear the smell, but is it normal for this job to pay such a high salary?

But what Matt gave here was really a lot. The 110 yuan here was equivalent to more than yuan on Earth. Everything would be easy once the money was in place.

"If you don't have equipment, come with me to get it." Two hours later, Matt came to the dormitory again.

The place where the equipment was stored was a small warehouse. The so-called equipment was not the professional equipment that Bai Mu had imagined, but axes, machetes, spears and other things that looked unrelated to cleaning sewers...

Who needs to prepare this thing when cleaning the sewer?

He picked up a rusty axe and tried it, but it didn't work very well.

When filling out the form, Baimu wrote that he was good at chopping wood. This was not written casually, because it was fun and relaxing, and it was not his job, so he really knew how to chop wood.

"Are we cleaning the sewers or chopping people up?"

"Of course it's to clean the sewers. Who has the talent to prepare these things?" Seeing that everyone had got their equipment, Matt waved his hand and set off!
Bai Mu thought it made sense. It would be too much to use these things to chop people.

A group of people who would be under close surveillance wherever they go in a normal city came to a sewer entrance in Rota City, where police officers were already waiting.

"Just like before, just come out after cleaning up, we will arrange people to check." The police officer here took a look at Matt's team and nodded. The scavengers brought by Matt this time were of good quality.

This is not the first or second time that Matt has cooperated with the police station. The police believe in his ability to judge people and clean up. Even though Matt always brings new faces, his cleaning completion rate has always been very high.

The police station will pay the balance only after the sewer cleaning work is completed. As for how Matt distributes it, that is his business.

"Wait for my good news!" Matt laughed a few times and took the lead into the sewer.

Unexpectedly, the cleanliness here exceeded his imagination. After thinking about it for a while, he thought that it might be related to the living conditions of this era.

And after arriving here, the relaxed atmosphere in the team became tense.

Bai Mu looked around and thought that since they were not chopping people, they must be chopping something else. Just cleaning up the garbage was simply not worth the price of goods and daily wages in this city.

"Captain Matt, I seem to see a big black tentacle." Bai Mu was shocked. This job is really not serious!

"Now that you see it, chop it!" Matt rushed forward and chopped the extended tentacles with the heavy machete in his hand.

The pitch-black tentacles were cleanly cut off, and ink-like liquid spurted out. The move was quick and neat, highlighting a professionalism. Bai Mu understood why Matt thought chopping wood was a good skill.

The man who wanted to bet on Baimu's shoes swallowed his saliva, grabbed the spear in his hand and rushed forward. Since he was already here, he would be wasting his daily wages if he didn't take action.

Matt is very picky about people. When looking for Matt, he was still following others. Those people were screened out by Matt, leaving only him.

The reason for keeping him is that he is the strongest gambler among gamblers and he is short of money!
Everyone else has their own reasons for being short of money, otherwise who would easily do this kind of work?
In Rota City, the best place to destroy corpses is the sewer. There are always natural scavengers breeding there, and they are the scavengers who clean up these scavengers.
