Overnight, most of the elves were settled in, while a few were still packing their belongings and moving in.
Living above ground or underground is not something you can choose; it's all a matter of luck. The only thing you can coordinate is that people you know live together. Accommodation must be arranged strictly according to regulations, with daily cleaning and inspections by dormitory managers. Because the underground is not exposed to sunlight, it was built using the construction methods of Storm City.
Sunlight is drawn in from the ground and refracted to other locations, but most of it is delivered by lamps, which is very energy-intensive. Therefore, the lights in the underground city are currently only turned on from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. and turned off after 10 p.m. Only during special periods will they be turned on until 11 p.m. or 12 p.m.
Therefore, those who live underground must prepare a flashlight or an emergency power reserve lamp.
winter.
"Weren't we supposed to enter winter in a day? How come it's already snowing!"
"It started snowing in Chaos City yesterday. We're lucky it's snowing today. I heard on the radio that other places started snowing a week ago. We need to check every house, especially the rooftops, and take turns shoveling the snow!"
"The snow on the road also needs to be cleared, and the manpower requirement for this job will soon increase. We can hire a few more people during the winter!"
Ultimately, it was only because there were more people that they dared to speak up.
"It gets dark quickly in winter, so I only need to work until 6 pm to get off work. It's 9 am to 6 pm, and I still have a one-hour break at noon!"
The winter work schedule has been changed, reducing the hours by an hour, but the pay remains the same. The unsuspecting half-elf pulled an orc aside and asked, "Are we the same?"
"It's all the same. Everyone who works for the lord has the same working hours!"
After the half-elves had settled in, they went to prepare for their work, with the rabbits still leading them to their respective posts.
"The lord said that you are all highly professional in your respective fields!"
The half-elf, flattered by such praise, quickly waved his hands and said, "No, no, we only know a little bit. We are not elves, but half-elves. As for the learning in the Eternal City, half-elves can only learn the most basic part!"
The rabbit squinted and smiled, "Even the lowest level is much better than us. The lord trusts you very much and has decided to select the half-elves who are good at planting, clearing land, raising animals, and building. We have already arranged for a group of students to learn from you!"
The rabbit pointed to the orcs and half-orcs behind it.
"We don't want you to work too hard. These are the people we selected who have some experience in this area so they can keep up with you!"
"As teachers, your compensation is..." the rabbit explained, describing the compensation for teachers.
The half-elves were completely bewildered.
"Are we... are we teachers now?"
The rabbit nodded: "That's right, from now on you are the teachers of the territory!"
Throughout history and in all circumstances, the teaching profession has always been worthy of everyone's respect. The half-elf never imagined that he would one day become a teacher!
What do we need to prepare?
No, teachers definitely need to prepare something!
A glint of light flashed in the rabbit's eyes.
"These are the teaching aids and some books prepared for you. You need to make some lesson plans and write down everything you know. Of course, to avoid you being too tired, we will provide you with assistants to share your teaching tasks. If anyone is lazy or does not study hard, we will kick them out!"
Half-elf: We still have this power?
Rabbit: We can't let these lazy students ruin the lord's plans. If they can't learn, we should find someone who can. We absolutely cannot waste the six months of winter.
The half-elves were thrilled that they too could attain this prestigious status, while Qin Yiyi sipped tea by the French windows.
"Is everything done?"
"Everything has been arranged. We will give you feedback every week, my lord, please rest assured!"
"We have weekly and monthly tests to weed out those who don't meet the standards, and new people are brought in batch after batch. Soon, planting, breeding, and construction are all up and running. We are also vigorously training talent for other trades."
Qin Yiyi nodded.
"Provide food as usual during the winter, especially hot water. Have the taverns sell spirits even cheaper. Make sure to ensure a normal life in the territory!"
"Select another group of people to train in cooking skills, and clear out all the tracks. There's no need to rush; just get it done before spring. Also, we need to clear out another batch of wasteland. I remember the last time we cleared the wasteland, we could reach the nearest lake from within our territory!"
"Yes, sir. Lord Sid wants to include the lake in his territory, but there seems to be something in the lake. The black and white whales have gone there several times but have returned empty-handed. Now Lord Sid is using delicious food to lure Lord Ken to help him!"
?
Qin Yiyi turned her head and glanced at it. What?
Sid, Kraken, and the White Tiger ate with Qin Yiyi, but of course, it was impossible for them to be fully fed. Kraken, for example, was always hungry, let alone the White Tiger.
Sid tricked Kraken into going down to the lake by offering his own rations.
Of course, Sid wasn't lying to him either, because the Black and White Whales weren't strong enough, so the Kraken needed to go down.
"There seems to be a barrier inside, which the black and white whales can't open. It feels like there's something alive inside."
Kraken didn't look up; he didn't care about any of that.
He was deep in thought; Sid's food seemed different from his own.
He's overthinking it. The three of them only have the right to order food once a week, and Sid's meal tomorrow is because he ordered it separately.
Sid looked at Kraken.
"Brother, say something if you agree or disagree!"
Kraken shook his head, and Sid gritted his teeth.
"We'll give you two days' worth of food, just come with us this once, okay?"
? ?
Kraken initially shook his head because he thought the food he ordered was bad, but he was pleasantly surprised.
Twice? He provided all the meals for two days?
Sid nodded with tears in his eyes, gritting his teeth to hold back.
!
This business is pretty good!
"One dive, two days' worth of food?" Kraken used his tentacles to make a simple contract, pulled Sid along, and covered him with his feathered impression. His tentacles also imprinted small hands on Sid's hand.
Qin Yiyi eats three meals a day, but she only gives them one meal in the evening, and they have to eat in the cafeteria the rest of the time.
Cooking for others is tiring!
Seeing Kraken agree, Sid said impatiently, "Let's hurry over there while the snow isn't too heavy yet, the coldest days of winter haven't arrived, and the lake hasn't frozen over!"
He always felt there was someone at the bottom of the lake!
