The epidemic prevention work, as the name suggests, is mainly prevention, and the specific measures are essentially the same as those of later generations, such as improving personal hygiene, organizing disinfection, banning drinking water, and killing insects ...
In addition to these daily epidemic prevention work, a process is now added-isolation room, once cold symptoms occur, they are sent to isolation to prevent virus transmission.
In order to cooperate with the national epidemic prevention work, Ferdinand also ordered a second martial law nationwide, which is second only to martial law during the war.
If you want to travel across the city, you must report to the local health department and check to make sure your body is normal to be able to pass freely. Stations, ports, schools, and other places with a large number of people are now full of detection points.
Sergei was born in the small town of Banquea, 17 kilometers west of Sofia. It belongs to a small town in the capital city of Sofia. It is located on the northern of Liulin Mountain at an altitude of 630 meters.
Backed by mountains, Sergei opened a small grocery store in Sofia, started buying and selling mountain goods, and became a businessman.
Oh, he's not even a bourgeoisie, it's just a self-employed at most, the clerk is his wife, three sons and two daughters.
Thanks to the recent good economic development in Bulgaria, his business is also okay. Eliminating all expenses is a small surplus!
However, after the epidemic, his troubles will increase. It is no longer possible to go in and out of Sofia every day. For security reasons, the government has restricted the flow of people in the city. Now he only has the opportunity to enter and exit freely every week. On the particularity of his profession.
If that's the case, that's all. His family has a lot of people, and he takes turns to send the team. The next day's delivery to the city will not affect anything!
The problem is that the epidemic prevention staff considered that the wild animal might be the carrier of the virus, and then the prey he received could no longer be sold. Of course, even if it could be sold, it could not be sold now!
Although there are a lot of food in Bulgaria, everyone is even more frustrated. The government is vigorously engaged in epidemic prevention. Who dares to look down?
Sergei looked at the newspaper and complained helplessly: "This has been going on for more than a month. When will the epidemic be the first?"
The old hunter Kalmar asked jokingly: "Sergey today's prey, do you still collect?"
Sergei said angrily: "Receive you a big head ghost! Didn't look at how much is still hanging in our yard? Sell not sell, eat and dare not eat, it is a pity to lose it!"
Kalmar smiled slightly and said, "Why are you anxious, wait for the epidemic to pass, and then sell it slowly! Do you think I'll go hunting as usual?"
Sergei said with a sneer: "You are a person who can't live without a gun a day. Can it be sold if the prey is sold?"
Kalmahaha smiled and said, "Still you understand me. This is a living habit and can't be changed. Unfortunately, Liu Linshan's prey is getting less and less. Maybe I will move soon!"
Sergei froze. He and Kalmar both grew up together. Suddenly he heard that he was leaving, and his heart suddenly became quite empty.
"Why? Your family is not too thin. You don't need to trust your son?" Sergey asked wonderingly.
On the European continent, as long as they can live independently, parents will not live with their children. They think this is a shame.
Although Kalmar is a hunter, his main income is still farming. In this small town, he still has two hectares of land. In addition to the income from hunting, his children are all grown-ups, and he does not need to continue to pay expenses. So his childhood was pretty good.
Kalmar explained: "You know what kind of life I like, it really kills my fighting spirit in Sofia!"
Sergey stared at him dumbfounded, unable to speak for a long time. After a pause, he said, "Are you crazy? The army will not want you to be immortal, are you going to be a mercenary?"
Kalmar shook her head and said, "No, I'm not crazy. Actually, I'm going to be a colonial sheriff. You know how scarce there is, as long as you are willing to sign up, they will accept it! Besides, I am still a retired officer You can be an officer in the past! "
Sergei knew that Kalmar hadn't lied, and now the colonies on the other side of Africa are indeed recruiting people and have reached the point of starvation.
Kalmar's actual age is only in her forties. It was only when the average life expectancy at that time was too short that she was regarded as an old man, but they were not much worse than young people in terms of physical fitness.
Sergey asked in amazement: "There is such a good thing that you were an officer as soon as you passed? Don't forget that although you are a retired officer, you are only a retired officer in reserve and you are still on the battlefield and the war is over. ! "
Kalmar's face turned red. The retired officer was putting gold on his face. Although he participated in the Balkan War and the World War, it was a pity that he did not have the opportunity to play. He just mobilized and took up a weapon to the front. Then the war ended. Already.
Although he is a veteran, he has not killed an enemy or even had a chance to engage in firefighting with the enemy. His military status is only a reserve service, and he has become a squad leader based on his seniority.
As an officer, it is estimated that no one will be recognized wherever he is. To get everyone's recognition, he still has at least one battle!
This is also a Bulgarian rule. Everything is aligned with the merit. If you are lucky, even if you are just a material carrier, and you kill a few enemies, you will get everyone's respect. Anyway, even if the regular army has no merit, it must be inferior!
Recruiting retired officers and soldiers to serve in the colonies is also Ferdinand's plan. On the one hand, it can strengthen the management of the colonies, on the other hand, it can also eliminate the factors of instability.
Many of the people who have just come down from the battlefield have mental illnesses, and they can't recover in a little while. Now Bulgaria does not have enough mental doctors to treat them mentally.
These people staying in the country are prone to cause social security problems and are prone to radical ideas. Many people are imbalanced when they see others meritorious deeds, they will think that they are not worse than others, but they lack a chance!
For this opportunity, it is estimated that many people have to do things, even artificially create conflicts with neighboring countries, and deliberately trigger war!
It ’s different when you go to the colony. If you want to cause war, fight it! Anyway, the enemy is the chief of the tribe, no matter how hard it is, Bulgaria can afford it. There is no play.
By the time they are vented, the colonies are almost cleaned up. It's killing two birds with one stone. Kalmar is the beneficiary of this policy!
Kalmar said rudely, "That's different. This time I'm taking someone. As long as I have 20 guys, I'm the squadron leader!"
Sergei nodded, this is almost the same. In Africa, everyone is unfamiliar with life. There are not many acquaintances around. How can you get used to it?
Ferdinand is not stupid. Of course, knowing that holding a group is the easiest way of life in an unfamiliar environment, so most of the basic staff put their local neighbors together and everyone can take care of each other.
The most important thing is to reduce the mortality rate. The biggest enemy in developing the African continent is not indigenous peoples, but-unacceptable!
As for whether there will be a ground snake in the future, Ferdinand said he doesn't care. There are not many people on the African continent anyway. When it is developed, it will be a monkey year. Even if there is a land snake government, it can be slowly split. Anyway, A small group of one hundred and eighty people cannot threaten the government's rule!
After a pause, Kalmar said in a little embarrassed: "That Sergei told you the good news. I also took two of your kid, rest assured that the boss kept it for you. He wanted to go, but I Persuade!
We are not old friends anymore, I will help you take care of them, and then we will reunite in Africa together! "
Sergei's face suddenly became gloomy. If his gaze could kill people, now Kalmar has broken into pieces.
"What? How can you do this, Kalmar? Have you ever asked my opinion?" Sergei said angrily
Kalmar said without changing his face, "Isn't this telling you? Besides, they are all adults, it's time to let them go out and create them!"
If it were not for this epidemic, we have now arrived in Africa. If you are not assured, you can choose to go with us! "
Sergei forcibly suppressed the anger, and his heart was bleeding. Fortunately, he was an ordinary little businessman and always timid, otherwise he might have a duel with Kalmar now.
As for going to Africa for development, it is not suitable for an ambitious person like him. According to his plan, he will keep a few sons around to help him do business.
Anyway, leaning back on Sofia and pour some mountain products and daily necessities, this profit is enough to support their families.
Obviously, his ideas are not the same as the ideas of his sons. Ginger Iron Horse is the mainstream of Bulgarian society. Young people who are not warlike are definitely not pure Bulgarians!
Sergei smiled bitterly and said, "Why go to Africa, can't you go to the Asia Minor Peninsula? Here is closer, and the conditions are much better!
It doesn't matter if you're old, but what about the children? You can't take them to adventure, don't you want them to never go home once in a lifetime? "
Kalmar blushed, and said embarrassedly, "I can't take charge of this issue. Besides, where can I go?
What ’s so bad about going to Africa? The conditions there are poor, but it ’s good to be successful! The Aborigines in the siege mountains are safer than fighting.
In fact, the first thing we applied for was the Arabian Peninsula. We went there to do a guy named Neizhi. Unfortunately, we were robbed by the regular army first. Our task is only to deal with miscellaneous fish!
You know I'm a hunter. It's not my fault. My ancestors were hunters. I've been a hunter for more than 20 years, so they all agree that I am suitable to catch orangutans in Africa! "
Kalmar was also very wronged, because he was born of a hunter, so the group he brought was determined to go to the African jungle.
Judging from the fact that it is easy to make achievements, the Arabian Peninsula is the best choice. It is about to start working on the indigenous kingdom. Fighting a kingdom with a population of two or three million people will have a future against a group of tribal chiefs!
Sergei nodded helplessly and said, "Okay, now that you're done, you can go now, don't affect my business!"
Obviously, he is still very angry, but as a father he cannot interfere with the choices of his sons, which is also a European tradition.
According to European tradition, the eldest son left to inherit the family business, and the second son left the family to wander the world. Instead of abducting his eldest son, Kalmar took his second son out to discuss life, which is in line with local traditions. So despite being angry, Sergei didn't break out.
Now the two younger sons are married. Even if they don't leave now, they still have to leave the house after a few years. If they stay at home and live with their parents and brothers, they will be looked down upon.
Maybe this is the real reason they are willing to go out with Kalmar and take risks in Africa!
Sergei had realized that his previous plans were not complete. He closed the business hastily, closed the door of the grocery store, and returned to his home. He had to ask his two sons for opinions again.
If he just wants to go out, he still hopes they can stay in Sofia. Close to home is the capital, all conditions are good, and finding a job is relatively easy.
What the African continent looks like, Sergey doesn't know, and it doesn't look like a good place anyway. Of course, judging from government propaganda, it is still fertile ground, but there is no time to develop it!
Sergey asked, "Did you both Raul and Caton decide? You really want to go to the African colony with Kalmar. The environment over there is rather bad. Are you ready?"
Raul replied: "Dear father, we are ready! You know, this is our dream, we don't want to live under your wings all the time!"
Sergei lit a cigarette, smoked it, and remained silent for a long time.
"Well then, did your wives agree? Now that you are married, you cannot act on your own will!" Sergey said earnestly
Caton next responded, "Father, rest assured, we have grown up ~ EbookFREE.me ~ know what we are doing, we will go to Africa together, and the colonial government will help arrange work!
And hospitals and schools will be set up at the same time. You do n’t have to worry about our life! "
Sergei nodded. The government's determination to develop the colony is unshakable. According to data released by the government, 800,000 people will be immigrated to Africa within five years. Essentials such as hospitals and schools are indispensable.
Sergei looked forward to saying, "Well, now that you're ready, tell your mother, I think she needs comfort now!
Of course, if you can change your mind, it is even better. I still recommend you to stay in Sofia. The days of great wasteland will not be so good! "
