Chapter 32 Job Search

Author: seedless melon

Early the next morning.

Truman dressed neatly and went out.

He did not take the lunch bag handed to him by the landlord and said that he should come back for lunch.

"What happened to your work?" The landlord was keenly aware of the abnormality, because in the past two months, Truman had always gone to his workplace for meals.

"I'm looking for a new job." Truman said.

Oh... There was regret in the landlord's expression. After all, in this city, unemployment means lack of food and clothing, and he will soon be unable to pay the rent.

Truman looked at the landlord's expression and added: "It's the new job introduced by the housekeeper from Habsburg."

In the next moment, Truman witnessed the landlord's unique ability to change his face, from clouds to blooming flowers in just 0.1 seconds.

Truman left with a smile. Behind him, the landlord was still standing there, looking at Truman's back with admiration.

In Lundini, as long as it is related to the four words "Habsburg", it will definitely be revered by others.

Truman needs a new job.

Truman will not use the power gained from being promoted to Extraordinary to break laws or obtain money. He even needs to hide it. The principle is: when you are in a different world, be careful in everything you do.

Although he has not come into contact with many extraordinary people, Truman is keenly aware that because dead extraordinary people can analyze the existence of the rule of "characteristics", the relationship between extraordinary people, from a certain perspective, also has the relationship between "hunters" and

'Prey' between patterns.

Truman's Mask can accommodate 3 characteristics. After installing 'Sensitivity' and 'Copying', there is still 1 empty space.

He thought it would be great if there was a feature that could provide some kind of weapon form or combat stance to fill the gap.

Then the assassin incarnation that Truman expected will take shape.

Truman wants the characteristics so much, how could other extraordinary people not want them too.



Half an hour later.

Truman came to Lundini's dock area.

The dock area is located in the easternmost part of Lundinny, built along the waterfront of the Oise River. From then on down the river is the ocean, with smooth waterways, so it is very prosperous.

The prosperity here is different from the orderly order in the central area, but is filled with a complicated and disorderly heat.

There are cargo ships and well-dressed traders docking everywhere. A large amount of goods are transported to the shore, and a large amount of goods leave the shore.

In this world and this era, Lundini City is one of the centers of the entire world.

Truman looked for his target among the buildings along the coast, and soon saw a conspicuous sign: Habsburg Shipping Company.



Truman waited at the shipping company for a full hour before he got the steward.

Looking for a job~ Truman comforted himself to relax his mind.

"Mr. Truman, I'm very sorry, I have some matters to deal with, so I'm late." said the butler.

Although he was apologizing, he didn't have an apologetic attitude. He raised his chin high with the usual arrogance of aristocrats. Truman still understood this. After all, this is a semi-feudal and semi-capitalist social form.

"Your job is to identify 'antiques' from all over the world and determine whether they contain spiritual texts." The butler said while looking at Truman, "This is not difficult for you who have outstanding talents, right?

?”

"Antique? Spiritual text?" Truman was a little surprised, "Are you talking about the screen we saw in Habsburg that day?"

"That's right." The butler nodded, "I'll take you to the warehouse to have a look."



The warehouse of Hubbs Shipping Company is many times larger than the warehouse of the Potions Workshop.

It is located near the dock. It is a building similar to a assembly workshop on Earth. It is more than ten meters tall and covers an area of ​​nearly a thousand square meters. It uses very advanced construction technology in this era.

A large amount of goods were stored throughout the warehouse, separated by wooden boards, and all of these goods were pottery, pottery of various shapes.

In addition to Truman, there are also several other well-dressed gentlemen who are identifying these pottery vessels. Once it is confirmed that they contain spiritual texts, they will be labeled with unique labels and await further processing.

This scene amazed Truman. He felt as if he had arrived at the excavation site of Qin Shihuang's Terracotta Warriors and Horses on Earth.

"Where do these pottery come from?" Truman couldn't help but ask.

"All over the world." The butler replied simply.

"Is the excavation of spiritual texts for the promotion of little Baron Habbs?" Truman asked again, this would be too much of an effort. How could a potion require so many raw materials?

"You don't need to know too much." The butler avoided answering, "How much is your income from the potions workshop?"

"About 10 gold pounds a month." Truman answered honestly.

"Here you will receive a basic salary of 15 gold pounds. If the number exceeds a certain amount, you will also receive a reward of about 15 gold pounds." The butler promised.

Not bad. The benefits of this new job made Truman a little happy.



"Habsburg has set such a high salary for this job, which also means that it has potential risks. Of course, for an extraordinary person, as long as he is cautious enough, there will be no problem at all, and what you lack most is

Just be cautious..."

Truman is on the phone with the owner of the workshop.

At Truman's request, the landlord wisely avoided the conversation.

Now, listening to the workshop owner's voice coming from the old-fashioned split phone, Truman didn't know whether this was praising himself or saying that he was too cautious, so he was so cautious about an extraordinary person with an 'actor' sequence.

Say, it's a bit dangerous.

The owner of the workshop recommended Truman's work. Truman always reported the status to her and contacted her frequently. This would make it easier to talk to her when she needed something in the future.

"How do you feel after being promoted to Extraordinary?" the workshop owner asked.

"The 'share' is growing very slowly." Truman expressed his confusion. Since completing the ceremony, his 'share' has stagnated.

"How can the 'actors' increase their 'share' if they don't perform?" the workshop owner said, "I received a message that a 'mysterious monument' will be shipped to Lundini and will appear on your doorstep soon.

work place."

"Teacher, are you talking about...?" Truman didn't understand.

"It may help you increase your 'share'." The workshop owner said.

"What is the mystery monument?" Truman asked.

"As for the carrier that contains about 50 spiritual texts, the academic community agrees that it is difficult to translate, so it is called the Mysterious So-and-so, and because it is in the shape of a stele, it is called the Mysterious Stele." The owner of the workshop explained,

"If it reaches 100 words, it will be called Unsolvable So-and-so, because it takes too much manpower to solve it, and basically no one will organize such work."

"Can the 'Mysterious Monument' help extraordinary people increase their 'share'?" Truman asked.

"If the spiritual text above is complete, it may have such an effect." The owner of the workshop said, "This is a kind of feedback. Of course, the 50-word spiritual text carrier is very important to any translator in Lundinni at this moment.

It’s a little difficult for me, but it might be different for you.”

"As long as you translate it, can you increase your 'share'?" Truman asked.

"Only if it is complete." said the workshop owner.

"If you can get rewards for translating more than 50 words of 'Mysterious Carrier'." Truman studied this matter, "Doesn't that mean that there are many extraordinary people who can have this power?"

"Yes." The workshop owner said matter-of-factly, "Did you know there is a newspaper called "The Pursuit of True Knowledge"?"

Of course I don’t know that Truman doesn’t even like to read the Lundini newspaper, which has the largest circulation in the city.

"You can buy it and have a look when you have time. It can broaden your horizons," the workshop owner said.

Truman has no idea about the newspaper for the time being. He just has a question: "Teacher, what are the ranks of those extraordinary people who can translate 50 words of spiritual text?"

"Legend, or myth." said the workshop owner.

Is this an area where I can get involved? Truman shook his head secretly.

I am in Guangzhou, and the laptop I use does not have Wubi. There may be typos in these two chapters. I will go back and correct them. I will spend some words describing the protagonist's work and life in another world. This is always a main line, not too much, but it will exist.
