Chapter 19: Unsatisfactory professional treatment
Inside the shelter, listening to the elegant electronic voice of Jarvis in the corridor and the blessing of prosperity that Hua Zai must hear during the Chinese New Year, the residents who had rested peacefully for a night got up one after another. After a simple wash, they came to have breakfast.
If they hadn't woken up from the beds in the shelter and could see this extremely sci-fi shelter, they might have thought that everything that happened yesterday was just a dream.
In the cafeteria, the variety of breakfast is very rich, with dozens of choices, corn cobs, pancakes, tea eggs, boiled eggs, stewed eggs, fried eggs... There are nearly ten kinds of eggs alone, as well as meat buns, vegetable buns, sauerkraut buns, peanut buns, vermicelli buns, etc....
Drinks also include soy milk, milk, coffee, yogurt, etc....
It can be said that everything is available.
Such a rich variety is rarely available even in star-rated hotels in peacetime.
Not to mention in this apocalypse after the meteorite impact, zombies are rampant.
The most important thing is that the price is cheap.
After placing their orders, countless workers saw that the points they spent were only four to eight points. Even if they could eat, they would spend at most a dozen points.
The workers were amazed at the terrifying purchasing power of points here! In the outside world, the food on their plates would cost dozens of yuan!
But here, they only need a few points to eat, and the points can be earned through their own labor!
For a moment, many people jokingly wondered why the end of the world came only yesterday...
Lu Qing is a graduate of a junior college. He ordered two buns, a cup of soy milk, a fried dough stick, and a scallion pancake, which cost five points!
After eating his fill, he came to his post. Today was his first day at work, and he had to perform well! He looked at the piglets in front of him who were also staring at him, and Lu Qing's eyes were full of heat.
Although Lu Qing has a junior college degree, he studied animal husbandry and veterinary medicine, which is no longer useful in society.
In modern society, animal husbandry already has a very complete set of processes. Unless you can break the existing process and create a new process, you can only follow the footsteps of your predecessors.
Moreover, animal husbandry veterinarians are not the relatively profitable veterinarians who look after cats and dogs, but the ones who look after pigs, horses, cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks.
And because the salary is not high, the large-scale use of mechanization, coupled with the dirty and messy working environment and the high time cost, it is difficult for ordinary people to stick to it, and they will basically change their careers soon.
Therefore, Lu Qing has not been able to find a job after graduation. Because of this, the neighbors in the village have been gossiping that a college student can't find a job! They are often joked that their pigs are sick and they want Lu Qing to go and see them!
Lu Qing has always been very disappointed about this, until he heard that there was a job opportunity in Hai City this time, he didn't plan to stay at home for years, and rushed here without stopping.
He just didn't expect that the disaster would happen and he would be trapped here directly, but what he didn't expect was that his major was actually useful in this shelter with extremely developed technological civilization!
Because chickens, ducks, cattle, sheep and pigs are also raised here, and some people who have studied animal husbandry are needed!
And because the position is quite important, although he is only a primary resident at the moment, his monthly income points can be as high as 5,000!
It is more than two-thirds of an ordinary worker, which is unexpected for him.
The residents in the shelter are divided into four levels: primary, intermediate, advanced, and special residents.
Primary residents represent those who have a skill or family members, intermediate are guards or people with indispensable abilities, advanced are researchers and guards, and special are the people that Jiang Yu trusts the most, and can enter most of the shelter.
In a similar situation to Lu Qing is Zhang Yunqing, who is currently taking care of a certain number of cockroaches.
Zhang Yunqing graduated with a doctorate in zoology, but his research direction is the cockroaches that everyone hates, so even if he has a doctorate, he still encounters obstacles everywhere in society and has difficulty finding a job.
In order to make a living, he could only be a semi-transparent teacher in the school. There were very few courses that he could choose every year. Excluding a few wrong ones, he could basically say that he had no classes for the whole year.
However, when he came to Xinhuo Shelter, he originally just wanted to find a small job to make a living, but he didn't expect that there was a job to take care of cockroaches here, and the salary was not low!
This discovery made him ecstatic. He thought that he would have nowhere to display his knowledge, but Xinhuo Shelter turned out to be the Bole he had been looking for for so long.
In his joy, he immediately signed up. With his excellent academic qualifications and experience, he was quickly hired, and his monthly salary was as high as 7,000 points!
This made him, who originally just wanted to make a living, change his mind, and his sense of belonging to Xinhuo Shelter became stronger and stronger, and he had the idea of contributing every bit of his talent to the base.
Of course, in addition to these, there are also many jobs that are very popular outside, but there is not much room for development in the base, such as several masters of finance.
In the base, they don’t even need cash, so how can they manage the economy? There are a few philosophers, and their treatment in the base is even worse than that of kindergarten teachers.
After all, in the cruel end of the world, can you still reason with zombies? Talk about philosophy?
In the end of the world, the relatively popular things are basically those that are not valued in peacetime, such as agriculture and animal husbandry, because only when people have solved the problem of food and clothing can they have the energy to start dealing with those moral, philosophical, and economic issues.
It's nonsense to say this when you haven't eaten enough.
Therefore, although many people have master's and doctorate degrees, they are of no use here, and this also makes them feel a sense of gap.
Obviously they are so popular in the outside world, why can they only do the simplest general work and get the lowest salary when they get here? They were unwilling to ask this question to Jarvis, but Jarvis just ignored it. He said that those positions were temporarily not suitable for the current shelter....
On the other side, Liu Yaya, who had just finished breakfast with her mother, came to the scientific research room on the 43rd floor.
As soon as the door of the scientific research room opened, Liu Yaya was shocked by the complex and detailed scientific research room.
Inside the extremely spacious white interior are countless mechanical assistants ready to go, and there are sliding track pulleys above the head.
Cell production room, cell culture room, cell freezing room, virus storage room, specimen room, cell laboratory, all white and neat operating rooms come into view.
Liu Yaya looked at the sci-fi-like and complex scientific research room with a shocked expression.
"Jarvis, tell me what work I need to do?"
Liu Yaya came back to her senses and asked...
