Time flies so fast that a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
It’s August, and the sun is shining brightly. The humid sea breeze blowing from the East Coast turns New York Harbor into a big steamer.
There is an impetuous atmosphere in the air.
I don’t know what changes are happening outside. After all, in the United States in the 1920s, summer was not a good season!
Cool clothes, alcoholic wheat sodas, and even more exciting shows.
With John Calvin's acquiescence, the moonshining industry, which had lasted for four years, once again ushered in a golden period of industry development.
In these first-tier cities, led by New York, gang forces within them have begun to prepare for the next four years.
It is foreseeable that there will be a bloody storm this summer.
But all this has nothing to do with New York Harbor.
Animal People mainly gather in New York Harbor, and Poseidon Street is the main neighborhood where Animal People live.
It is a large area with more than 10,000 buildings and a total population of more than 100,000.
Bell is somewhat famous on Poseidon Street.
Since the last time I talked to Big Jack from the Rhino Gang.
Poseidon Street, which was originally as restless as a barrel of dynamite, was poured with cold water, and all the animals regained their composure.
It can be summed up in one sentence - Jianghu is not about fighting and killing, but about human relations.
What to fight for?
It’s the 20th century, we all need to be civilized people!
Dave has been a little busy lately, and a top student is a top student.
After looking for a set of elementary school textbooks on the market, he took a rough look at them, and then Octopus Dave threw them aside with a look of disgust.
He wants to write a teaching material more suitable for his own baby.
As for Bale?
Polar Bear's life has not changed much. He recently cut down seventy-five imperial pines and seventy-five weeds of the same grade.
What if a plant requires the power of a country to be destroyed?
In this month, Bell has destroyed one hundred and fifty countries!
His own strength has been enhanced to a certain extent compared to before.
But overall, it's better than nothing, and polar bears are now past the age of chasing power.
Now he just wants to live every day happily and watch the furry children at home grow up healthily.
To him, the growth of strength is not as happy as a hug from a furry child.
As a heat wave blew by, the blue sea surface sparkled.
At the deep-water port of New York Harbor, there are two large blue and white ships docked on the left and right.
This is an urgent task.
It takes three days to complete the manual loading and unloading of 7,000 tons of rubber in the cabin. Then it took four days to load 7,500 tons of wheat into the cargo ship.
Rubber transportation is very tiring, so the transportation fee is 20% more expensive than wheat, and the price can reach 0.6 US dollars per 100 kilograms.
The transportation fee for 7,000 tons of rubber is 4,020 U.S. dollars, and the transportation fee for 7,500 tons of wheat is 3,750 U.S. dollars.
Because it is urgent, the total moving fee for the project is US$10,000.
This is a big project and requires the full cooperation of the animal people at the dock.
The elephants in the cabin carried the buckets of rubber out of the cabin, and the bison carried the rubber buckets to the edge of the deck.
Bear, the polar bear, would transport the rubber from the cargo ship to the dock, and Ernie the Rhino, along with three or five animal men, would use an oversized cart to transport more than 20 tons of rubber to the warehouse at a time.
On this side of the warehouse, there are some large and medium-sized animals that are rarely seen in the dock.
Such as wildebeest, gorillas, elk and other animals, they will arrange these goods neatly.
The polar bears don't like these new animals.
This has nothing to do with money.
Bell was not short of money, he came to work at the dock just to kill time.
Of course, it's not because of racial discrimination.
Animal Man is originally at the bottom of society, almost at the same level as black people.
Moreover, if Bell really discriminated against other animals, he would not let Bigger become his son.
The reason for the dislike was that Bell was concerned about the state of the animals.
You must know that although the salaries of stevedores on large cargo ships are very generous, this industry requires extremely high physical fitness!
At the current stage, human science and technology is not developed enough.
Tools such as gantry cranes, tower cranes, and forklifts have not yet become popular on a large scale.
Only then did rhinos and elephants have living space for animals with huge bodies.
Dock workers, especially those who work hard.
Their advantages are cheap labor and efficiency that is no less than that of large heavy machinery.
This is also the reason why large cargo ships are mainly loaded and unloaded with animals such as elephants and rhinos.
Bell has never worried that these large and medium-sized animals will steal his job. The only thing that can eliminate animals in this field is heavy machinery.
What he was really worried about was whether the animals could withstand such intense work.
You know, your body has its limits, don’t risk your life just for a little money!
A cool sea breeze blew by.
It was already afternoon, and the last barrel of rubber in front of me was transported from the cargo ship to the dock.
The polar bear, wearing a pair of overalls, pulled a notepad from his pocket.
Task: loading and unloading of two large cargo ships.
Mission description: Two cargo ships, whose cabins were not even filled, hurriedly carried a large amount of wheat to Germany.
Surprisingly, this was a decision made by a Jewish boss?
This makes people wonder whether the other party has some unknown information channels?
Mission clues:
Three years ago, without any enemy entering the territory.
At the request of the victorious country, the defeated Germany had to compensate 132 billion marks for this. This was definitely a bad decision, but in the end the humiliating Versailles Peace Treaty was signed.
Economic sanctions and sky-high indemnities have depressed the German economy, and the price of the mark has plummeted five hundred times in just a few years!
When in a country, a piece of bread is worth half a million marks, but some people are still complaining that the red wine in the restaurant is not old enough, the quality of the steak is not high enough, and the chef's skills are not exquisite enough?
Under the withered yellow leaves, terrible flames have begun to spread at the bottom.
Long live Hydra! ! !
≧▽≦
Mission reward: 800-1000$+ A fun that you don’t know when it will appear, although it means many people will die.
Mission progress: 3/7
Meanwhile, from the other side of the deck.
A North American bison with a height of 2.8 meters and a weight of more than 1,500 kilograms was greeted. The skin was dark brown and the muscles were as strong as stones.
At this moment, he was standing on the splint. The high-intensity work and the scorching sun above his head made him sweat profusely.
Accompanied by a gust of sea breeze blowing across the blue sea, this North American bison looks like a little giant.
The thick hair on his chest was blowing in the wind, and there were patches of white sweat crystals at the ends.
It reminds people of the Minotaur in ancient Greek mythology.
It's a pity that the mythical Minotaur is revered by people, and every nine years seven pairs of boys and girls are given as offerings.
And in the real world?
Not to mention it was an offering. If it hadn't been for the help of Bell, the polar bear, last month, one-fifth of the salary he had earned with his hard work would have been taken away by humans.
It is said that the 1920s was an era of economic boom.
Newspapers publish various inventions and good news every day.
It feels like the world is about to enter an unprecedented golden age.
But Bison Beson never felt like his life was getting better.
Stretching the sore muscles, the rough cow hooves wiped the sweat from the forehead.
Although the cow's eyes as big as copper bells are full of confusion, life still has to go on, and the wages of dock workers are not low.
The bison Bessen stretched his body, and the muscles as strong as rocks pulled the bones, making a crisp sound.
He believes that life will definitely get better and better!
"It's great, I can get off work early today."
The polar bear lowered his head and glanced at this little man who was no longer as long as his own legs. Without saying anything, he casually stuffed the notepad into the pocket of his overalls:
"Don't forget to clean the cabin. There are two thousand tons of wheat to be loaded tomorrow. You know I like to be clean."
This is an urgent mission, different from the previous loading and unloading jobs where the able ones were given the opportunity.
It takes a lot of animal people to work together.
The rubber bucket is very heavy. It is normal for a bucket of rubber to weigh two to three hundred kilograms, so it is not troublesome to pick it up.
But wheat is different. Wheat is softer and smaller, which is very unfriendly to ungulates.
But the main animals at the dock are rhinos and elephants, all of which are ungulates.
Bell could load bags of wheat into the hold of the ship like small loaves of bread.
But rhinos and elephants can't do this. Their fingers are very thick and clumsy, like wearing a pair of thick baking gloves.
Buffalo Bessen patted his marble-hard chest:
"Don't worry. Starting from this morning, Piras and I started cleaning the cabin. There will definitely be no..."
But before he could finish speaking, he could vaguely see something more than a hundred meters away in front of his sight.
The group of animals working near the warehouse suddenly started running towards the warehouse, which made Bison Beson subconsciously ask:
"Hey, what's going on over there?"
The polar bear frowned, looking at the bison next to him who was eager to join in the fun, and stopped it:
"I don't know. I'll go over there and have a look. You stay on the boat and help Pyrrhus clean up. Don't bully this elephant. He has a good temper, but that doesn't mean he is a fool."
After saying this, the polar bear turned over and jumped from the deck more than ten meters high.
And look at this three-ton behemoth, it moves so lightly, even more agile than a cat!
This scene silenced the bison Beson.
After a long time, I couldn't help but uttered a curse word:
"Fake, Zhen Ta Ma is a monster!"
