Chapter 504: select

"I'm going out!" In the morning, after eating breakfast, Cao Min packed up the emergency food packaging left over from his meal. Then he said hello to his family, carried his equipment, and prepared to go out.
Before the disaster, Cao Min also had a good job and a happy family, but the disaster came and ruined his original happy life.
Today's Cao Min is just an ordinary construction worker. Although this is very different from his previous job, it is not easy to have a stable job in today's environment.
Although the country attaches great importance to talents, people who are truly capable will be recruited by the country to engage in jobs similar to those before the disaster, but there are also industry restrictions.
Talents in technology-based industries such as manufacturing and R&D can naturally find new jobs smoothly, but it is difficult for personnel in tertiary industries such as service and finance to find suitable jobs in this era.
This is actually the inevitability of the times and the environment. The development of the tertiary industry is based on the overall economic prosperity and development of a country. People want to enjoy more services because they have money.
The poor can't even afford to eat, so why would they want more services?
This is why Cao Min is now just an ordinary construction worker. In the refuge where he is, only this job can give him enough income to support his family.
Because of post-disaster reconstruction, construction workers are now the most in-demand job. Although there are other better jobs in various shelters, they are not available to ordinary people.
For ordinary people like Cao Min who have no special skills, a construction worker who is purely physical is the most suitable job right now.
Cao Min's work today is not complicated. He only needs to go to the construction site outside the refuge to clean up the ruins of the old city and level the land.
This is a simple job that only needs enough physical strength to complete it, so there is no difficulty, nothing more than a little tired.
As far as Cao Min is concerned, it doesn’t matter if he is tired. He is still young anyway, and he is full of energy the next day after he goes home and sleeps after work. As long as he has enough income every day to support his family, for Cao Min It's nothing to be tired.
Just when Cao Min followed the workers to the construction site and was about to start the day's work, the foreman stopped them.
"Recently, a new project is going to be started, and some people must be transferred from our side." The foreman said something unexpected for the workers, and continued to make supplementary explanations: "The good news is transferred from the past. Workers’ pay will be increased by 10%, but the bad news is that the new project is located close to the county and far from the city, so all the workers transferred from the past will need to live on the construction site before the project is completed.
Of course, there are still holidays to come back every week, and registration is currently on a voluntary basis. Does anyone want to register? "
The foreman’s words made everyone hesitate and excited. The 10% more income is undoubtedly very tempting in this environment. After all, it is not money that is sent out, but real materials, which can be eaten by the family. Things to wear and warm.
But living on the construction site, this inevitably makes everyone feel a little drumming.
Before the disaster, this was a matter of indifference. It was nothing more than poor accommodation and a bit more difficult.
But in the current environment, living on the construction site is not only the conditions worse, people will freeze to death if it doesn't work well.
Of course, the workers also know that since the country has decided to do this, of course it will not say that it is really freezing to death, and that the various accommodation conditions should still be guaranteed.
As for whether the living is good or not, in today's world, it's good to have a place to live, it doesn't matter whether it is good or not.
But for the vast majority of people, they still want to live in a stable and familiar environment like a refuge, and are less willing to take risks in an unfamiliar environment.
However, some people coveted the 10% more income and raised their hands, expressing their willingness to work on new projects.
Cao Min is naturally one of them.
Although he said that he didn't want to leave his wife and family, and he didn't covet the extra 10% of his income, Cao Min had a reason not to go.
His wife is pregnant.
This is a happy thing whether it was before the disaster or in this terrible environment.
Especially when the people's livelihood is difficult now, the family can have a small family, and the husband and wife can have a child of their own. The crystallization of love is a joyful thing.
But it is also a heavy burden.
Of course, the state has subsidies in this regard. Pregnant women can get half an extra ration to supplement their nutrition, and there are additional subsidies after the baby is born.
This can be regarded as the country's encouragement to fertility in the current environment.
It's just that even with these, it is still difficult and worthy of the current conditions. Before the disaster, let alone the chickens that could be bought before the disaster, now it is something that Cao Min didn't dare to think about.
What he can think of and can do is just that he can do more and save more rations for his wife and the child who is about to be born, so as not to make the child hungry before he is born.
In fact, most of those who go to work on the site voluntarily are also such people. Perhaps it is to save more food for the family, or for other reasons. In the worst case, it is a bachelor and wants to eat more.
In short, the foreman quickly recruited enough workers, UU read www.uukanshu.com and registered them one by one.
The new project hasn't started yet, and they don't need to go so early now, they are just determining the list.
After watching the foreman register his name, Cao Min felt relieved. Only then did Cao Min return to the construction site with the workers and start today's work.
Although the country decided to put the newly built dome city on the county side due to geological disasters, it does not mean that the urban area has completely abandoned it.
Although the area of ​​the collapsed area is not small, it is fortunate that it is not an urban area. Moreover, geologists have investigated and determined that the geological structure of the urban area is fairly stable. Although the groundwater level has dropped, it has not reached the point where the city needs to be abandoned. .
Therefore, the final plan is to build a new city in the county area, but the existing urban area on the urban side will not be abandoned, but a part of the population will be moved to the new city first, and the ruins and land leveling will be carried out on the urban side. The possibility of building a dome city in the urban area.
