Translator: 549690339
...
At night, all the engineering soldiers were so excited that they couldnât fall asleep. They discussed at their resting place until the wee hours of the morning, but they were still energetic and didnât fall asleep at allâŠ
Due to the large number of engineering soldiers under the Little Fairyâs banner, their resting places were arranged in the underground base. Everyone was close to each other, and the topic of discussion was looking forward to the future⊠âŠ
When the young man who looked like a human told them that he would be a part of the new city, they had also discussed it excitedly like this, unfortunately, at that time, Gray Eggâs bird droppings kept mocking them and dampening their enthusiasm, causing the warm atmosphere that night to be doused with cold water.
But today, that annoying bird droppings had finally disappeared!
And most importantly, today, their master showed them that their future was even more perfect than the last time, and it also made them look forward to it even moreâŠ
âHey Paulan, what do you think I will become in the future?âA rather skinny yo-yo black young man asked.
âHow would I know?âThe one called Paulan was a rather fat big man, about 1.8 meters tall, and it was a visible contrast to the black young man.
He looked at his expectant companion and asked curiously, âWhat do you want to be?â
âMe? Actually, Iâve wanted to be a decent judicial grandfather for a long timeâŠâthe black young man said excitedly, âBe it a prosecutor in a lawsuit or a judge in a case, I feel very respectedâŠâ
âJudicial grandfather?âThe Fat Man frowned when he heard that. Most poor people seemed to think that being a judicial grandfather was a dignified and decent job, but he knew that among the nobles.., learning the judiciary was actually a difficult and unrewarding task.
In the Empire, education had always been the privilege of the nobles. However, the children of the nobles were also divided into three, six, and nine grades. After a certain age, the grandfather of a noble in a territory would usually choose an heir to inherit the title of nobility, and this person naturally learned all kinds of things that a lord should learn.
The rest of the brothers learned some other useful knowledge according to their own circumstances to assist their familyâs future leader!
Unlike illegitimate children, the direct descendants could choose many paths in the future. Among them, there were those who learned martial arts to lead the family, those who learned finance to manage the familyâs tax and business, and if it was a mage family.., they would also consecrate the most talented children to go to the arcane tower for further training and become the familyâs guardian Mage.
Of course, this useful knowledge included the judicial system, but it was not a very practical position for the nobles. After all, in the noble society, the judicial system was only targeted at civilians, and the real power was not big, at least in the noble circle, the real power was average, but it gave people a feeling of dignity among the civilians.
Moreover, the judicial system was very difficult. As the familyâs judicial administrator, he had to deal with all kinds of disputes between wealthy businessmen. His level naturally could not be bad, and it was easy to offend people. It was a thankless job that everyone in the noble circle knew.
One had to ask how Paulan knew all this. This was related to the environment in which he was born. His father was a second-class servant of a small townâs noble family. He had been a servant for generations. When he was young, he often heard his father discuss this, naturally, he knew more.
However, it was a pity that he was not the first child to be born in the family. The only recommended servant position in the family was snatched away by his brother, he could not stay in the noble family and live a comfortable life like his father, who could live a full and warm life just by doing odd jobs. In the end, he chose to join the army.
Paulan frowned and was about to use his knowledge to persuade the other party. However, when he turned around and saw the other partyâs energetic expression, Paulan was immediately stunned. In the end, he did not say anything.
Why would she pour cold water on him if he had such expectations. Moreover, the low status of a judicial grandfather was against the nobles. For commoners like them, it was already a very decent jobâŠ
âOh, right, Paulan, what do you want to be in the future?âThe young man suddenly asked.
Paulan was stunned. After a moment of silence, she suddenly said, âI want to be a mage grandfatherâŠâ
âAh?âThe black young man was stunned for a moment. Then, he said in a daze, âYou have such a big heart, PaolanâŠâ
Although master said that based on your talent, you could become anyone, but a high-end job like being a mage..? Wasnât it a little too dreamy?
âIsnât it⊠ââŠâ. âHahahaha!âPaolan scratched her head and laughed embarrassedly. âActually, my idea is that since thereâs a chance, Iâll fight for the best. Of course, I probably wonât be able to achieve it, but I still have to have a thought, right? If it doesnât work out, Iâll look at other things. Itâs best not to become a coolieâŠâ. ââŠâ
âThatâs trueâŠâthe black guy laughed.
At this moment, there were many engineers who were discussing the future like the two of them. They were all very eager. Some wanted to become financial officers, some wanted to become scholars, and some wanted to become knights. All of them felt that this was the beginning of their new livesâŠ
Zach lay in a corner and listened to his companions talk about the bright future with great interest. When he was in the military camp, he liked to listen to the old engineers who were about to retire discuss how to live after retirement. This kind of discussion about the bright future was the most interesting topic for him when he was chattingâŠ
Because life was too hard, it was always tempting to talk about the sweet things.
âHey ZachâŠâ. The Big Guy who was sleeping next to Zach suddenly said, âDonât you think that we who have talent in craftsmanship are at a disadvantage ? Look at the discussions around us. They either want to be scholars or financial officials ⊠Relatively speaking, it seems that we can only be carved stone slabsâŠâ. ..
âWhatâs wrong with that?âZach smiled and said, âThe world canât be full of mages or financial officials, right? âAnd our craft isnât bad either. Master told me that our craft will be richly rewarded in the future. The better the craft, the higher the reward. In the future, there will be a place for us in this cityâŠâ. ââŠâ
After a pause, he said, âMoreover, to be able to do what you like and get paid for what you like, isnât that the happiest thing in life?â
âYou⊠are reallyâŠâthe big guy shook his head with a smile, zach was always easy to satisfy, but that was fine too. Regardless of whether or not the craftsmen would be treated as well as their master said, at least they had a guarantee, those who wanted to study again had the risk of becoming coolies.
Just as Zach said, they had at least confirmed that they could have a foothold in this newly built city in the future.
Iâm really looking forward to it⊠the future! The Big Guy muttered to himself.
ââ
âWhat a positive atmosphereâŠâat this time, the little fairy in the dog egg farm was watching the engineers talking about the future through the smart video, the little fairy smiled and said, âFather Dog Egg is really a smart uncle⊠well⊠in that case, Iâll go to his house to take care of the business today!â
Thinking of this, the little fairy licked her lips and looked at the brightly lit farm in the distance with a greedy look on her face.
