The Death Knight of the Secret World

Chapter 19 0019. Tasting
After being hammered by Huang Tao, the traverser, the technology tree of the secret world developed a bit deformed.

Many high-end things have come out, such as airships and subways, but... many daily necessities, but they still maintain the medieval style.

For example, the secret world has sealing technology. When making alcoholic beverages, they invented the cork...

Moreover, for some reason, Huang Tao pointed out all the techniques for twisting the bottle cap.Even the thread concept he put forward inspired the organization Heart of Machinery, so the screw appeared.

However, more than 100 years have passed, but no one has linked the sealing technology with screwing the bottle cap.

This has led to the fact that more than 100 years have passed after the traveler Huang Tao burped his fart, and people in the mysterious world still haven't been able to eat canned food.

Whether it's canned fruit in a glass bottle or canned fish in an iron box, they have never appeared in the world of mystery.If Beomi hadn't followed Allen to Calendula No. 162 to act aggressively, it would probably take decades for someone to point out this thing by accident.

For a long time, the storage of finished food has been plagued by human beings. People have tried many fresh-keeping technologies, but they cannot guarantee long-term storage until the appearance of cans.

Thousands of years before cans appeared, someone figured out how to store alcoholic beverages for a long time.The sealing technology has also been highlighted, but the finishing touch is always just a short kick.

And so Beomy kicked.

Then, canning was born.

After Beomi had come up with a set of rhetoric, she spent nearly an hour cramming training for Alan who was lying on the sofa and couldn't get up, ensuring that he could survive the scrutiny of his family. It's starting to get dark.

At this moment, the police station was also off duty, so Alan and Beomi had no choice but to step into the police station at the off-duty time.

Of course, not walking back.They went out in a carriage, and of course they had to come back in a carriage. By the way, dozens of bottles of canned food were also carried in the carriage.

Then, before leaving get off work, Alan Beckman, the second-in-command clerk of the Evidence Office, began to distribute benefits to everyone in the police station on his third day in office.

Of course, not everyone has it. After all, it is better to take a more cold path in the early stage.It's not impossible to be very close to the people directly, but it doesn't make much sense, especially on the premise that there is no direct promotion of the ultimate goal of making money.

Therefore, Allen just bought a few bottles for each of the bosses in several departments, and second-line leaders like the office director also mixed up two bottles and took them home as a rare snack for their children.

In the last dozen or so bottles left, Alan Beckman followed Beomy's suggestion and gave a bottle to each of the tools in the Evidence Office. Work and so on.

With Beomi, the traveler, the appearance of the cans is guaranteed.He doesn't know anything about product design, advertising copywriting, etc., but he can copy the answers.

Therefore, everyone in the police station is quite satisfied with the gift from clerk Alan Beckman. This thing looks very high-end.Of course, some people are wondering how much this thing is worth behind their backs. Will it cost the clerk too much?

"It's not worth much, it's only 3 soli a bottle, if you have anything valuable, just take it!"

Not only Alan is sending favors, but Beomi is also sending favors, and the object is still his mentor.

Aroben still complained about Beomy's performance in the past two days-what the hell, I managed to get a replacement... Good apprentice, but he was cut off by the goddamn clerk within a few days.

Originally, with apprentices, Arrow could be lazy. At least two people share one share, so there is not so much work, and it is not flattering.

If there is something, the disciple will do his best!

Although foreigners haven't summed it up like this, it's not that they don't understand this. They still have similar customs.Even if there is no feudal dross such as discipleship rules in the mysterious world, the apprenticeship system itself is a remnant of feudal dross.

However, A Luoben, who finally became a mentor, was happy for two days before the apprentice was abducted.Now Beomi can't see anyone all day long, and she runs around with Secretary Allen the whole time, and doesn't say she is considerate of her poor old mentor.

Therefore, Aroben felt a little uncomfortable, but Beomie went out for a day, and when she came back, she still knew to bring some delicious food to the tutor, which was worth 3 soli.

Is this good...

When Beomie got back, Mrs. Maria was still at get off work, which she usually didn't get off until eight o'clock in the evening, and sometimes put in two hours of overtime for a few extra copper pennies.

After all, in a big city like Backlund, everything costs money.There is no such thing as free spending on food, clothing, housing and transportation, and the consumption level is a bit inflated.

The so-called "slums" are not dilapidated places like post-war ruins. This is actually an illusion.

In fact, the living standard in Backlund's slums is actually slightly higher than that in some rural areas.It's a bit of an urban village in a big city before Beomi crossed, but it's true that the security environment is not good.

Backlund's police force is simply not enough, and they often have to recruit some temporary workers. In fact, Beomi's current job [Sweeper] was a temporary police worker from the beginning.

However, because the population is close to one million, and hundreds of thousands of people die every day due to various reasons, the police station is really too busy to deal with the corpses, so the semi-organized [Sweeper] was established a hundred years ago. official organization.

This is similar to the operation mode of those labor dispatch companies on the earth. Most of the managers of the sweeper headquarters are specially appointed by the Backlund City Government, and many powerful non-governmental organizations will use it like project bidding. In this way, capital and people make a contribution to urban construction.

In return, all kinds of small privileges that can only be understood but cannot be explained in words.

Then, the non-governmental organizations are happy, and the municipal departments are also happy to have a leisure time, which is a win-win situation.

However, Backlund's police force is still not enough.

After all, Backlund wasn't like the rabbit who was one of the five leaders on Earth and Star before Beomy's crossing. He could provide enough jobs to accommodate all the [unemployed vagrants].

A large part of the unemployed can only be allowed to wander in the gray area to find food for themselves, so the security conditions can be imagined.

And the meaning of the existence of the Backlund police force is actually not the protection of the country and the people, the maintenance of justice, etc. that are often talked about.

The main job of Backlund's police team is to give priority to ensuring the law and order in Wangcheng District, noble district, wealthy district and other places.

As for the guarantee method, it's also very simple - just drive those restless guys to other areas.

The slums have become the sewers of the entire city, concentration camps for human scum and garbage.

In fact, the slum area does not specifically refer to a certain area, nor is it a certain area, but the peripheral area surrounding Backlund.

In the words of Beomi before crossing, it is [outer ring].

Well, according to Beomy's estimation, the slums should belong to [the transition zone from the fourth ring to the fifth ring in Backlund].

Tsk, this is really an appalling rubbish government, the fourth ring road is considered a [slum area] and a [three-way zone], this is a jujube pill!
It took a little effort for Beomi to unscrew the jar for Almin, tsk... I don't know what kind of mentality Huang Tao, a slut, made out of [twisting the bottle cap] to show [boyfriend power] of.

Not to mention, once this thing is tightened, women and children may not be able to loosen it easily.

There is nothing wrong with Beomi's well-trained aesthetics. The round belly bottle is paired with various yellow, white, and red fruit pieces, which makes people look very appetizing.

Therefore, Almin ate very happily, and knew to set aside a special portion for Mrs. Maria. This is a very good little boy!
As for Beomie, he said he didn't like eating it.Armin doesn't quite believe this kind of statement. This food is so delicious, sweet and has a nice fruity aroma. Why wouldn't Beomi not like it?
Although Almin is only a little over eight years old, two or three years of being dependent on each other has made him understand many things. Beomi hasn't laughed for a long time since her mother passed away.

And when the two brothers first settled down in the slums, Beomi suffered a lot, and Almin saw it all.

So, when Beomi told him [I don't like to eat this] again, Armin knew that he really didn't know how to eat it.Moreover, usually at this time, I will go to the side to find something else to do.

For example - make dinner.

Mrs. Maria will be responsible for the three meals of the brothers. Breakfast is okay, and lunch is to warm up the things left over from breakfast. It is a simple meal. Dinner may be relatively rich, and there will be thick cheese with cheese. Soup.

And when Mrs. Maria was away, Beomie would cook too, and of course his cooking wasn't very good.One is that he is really not used to Backlund's Western-style taste, and he can't do it himself.Either that, or that Mrs. Maria's kitchen lacked the assortment of seasonings that Beomie was familiar with.

The last thing is—poor people don’t have the time to cook delicious food. It’s good to be able to eat well. If you want to eat well, you have to wait for a chance.
