"Bang!" An Ursus soldier carrying an alloy crossbow roughly pushed open the door of the wooden dormitory, overturning someone's jars and pots, without even taking a single step into the dormitory full of infected people.

"Get up! Shed 24601, get out of line!"

He kicked the door, causing the wooden door, which was completely unable to block the wind, to shake.

"White Rabbit! Go and light a fire. Damn it, you're still lying there, you pig!"

Most of the infected people covered with coarse blankets have already blended into the gray-white quilts, and their entire bodies also look gray-white. They slowly put on the miners' clothes and took the initiative to walk out of the dormitory and line up without anyone calling them.

The one named White Rabbit by the soldiers was a white-haired Carters who looked very young.

His mother and wife were both in the team, their white rabbit ears sticking limply to their dirty, smelly hair.

The miners on the purge list lived in 24601. They had no names to speak of, and even the most basic fears were gone. The shortest prison term they had in the mines was 1348 years, and the longest was 1848 years.

I have already drawn a lot today.

But no one will tell this fact.

The infected man who drew the black lottery and his wife were shot at by crossbows for five minutes, along with the baby in his wife's arms. As for the difference between giving birth to a baby and giving birth to a new slave? They probably wouldn't know.

The miners were waiting for the draw, but what they got instead of a cup filled with wooden sticks was a pile of frozen clothes.

"You are so lucky."

Looking at the order in his hand, the soldier sighed, and then began to scold loudly:

"You, the lackeys of the guilty ministers and the infected, deserve the fate you have today. It is the merciful Majesty who has granted you permission to live in the warm mines! Now, you can become even luckier. His Majesty favors you so much!"

The miners looked up in confusion.

Did they mean that the military officer from the Northwest Command had come? Did the garrison fear that their more heinous crimes at the mine would be discovered and that the Command would punish them for it?

The soldier pointed at the clothes on the ground and shouted, "What are you waiting for? Now, put on these clothes, line up to go to the mine infirmary to treat your wounds, and then get on the bus and be sent to the headquarters!"

The miner continued to look at him with confused eyes.

This unpleasant look reminded the soldier of the hunting jumping beast.

"Why are you looking at me? You'd better be well-behaved and sensible when you go to Yan Country, and don't use your mouth to pick on others. The mine is in the northwest, far away from you, but close to your acquaintances. I know where you are from..."

Amid the angry explanation, the miners understood where they were going: to go to Dayan to continue doing hard labor.

Moreover, they had to disguise themselves as their true selves - outstanding residents of the city, and tell the people of Yan that they were a strong industrial platform construction team from Chernobyl, and would work in Yan from then on.

Fate played a joke on them a few years ago. Because of a random list of people who were asked to purge counter-revolutionaries, they came to this mine from the warm city. The joke has a sequel. Because of random assignments at all levels, they can leave the mine.

As for Yan Country, they didn't know there was such a country around them.

White-eared Carters didn't even dare to feel any emotion because of this.

He couldn't be sure whether this was a new way of entertainment invented by this group of Sarkaz-like Ursus garrison, transporting them by car to a place for direct humane treatment instead of the so-called Northwest Command.

……

Chapter 67 Haha, I’m the happiest today

Everyone in dormitory 24601 was carefully examined by the Ursus military doctor.

Of course, the mineral disease on their bodies could not be cured, but the scars from being whipped and the sores from being frozen in the snow could be covered and healed with medicine. If they wiped their bodies with hot water, wouldn't they be alive again?

After being dragged to take a bath, White Carter looked at the gray sky with snow falling, suddenly knelt on the ground, raised his head high, covered his eyes, so that the light that he had not seen for a long time could slowly flow in through his fingers.

His hands were covered with blinding black crystals.

This is how they should be. Taking a hot shower in a warm room, walking on the streets of a peaceful and quiet moving city, and everyone wearing decent and clean clothes is an ordinary life that belongs to them.

Instead of being put on a list without any reason and sent to the northwest mine.

Become an infected person and draw the black lottery ticket prepared for them by the garrison.

"It's over, it's all over..."

His wife and mother sat beside him, stroking his shoulders. There were two names missing from the list, so his and his wife's names were written on, and his old mother was put in on the charge of harboring a criminal.

"Today is the happiest day..."

......

"Haha, I'm the happiest today!"

Chernobyl inner city, government hall.

The mayor sat in the main seat, his face flushed, and he shook the champagne vigorously surrounded by officials. With a "pop", the champagne burst open, and the sweet wine rushed into the sky, arousing cheers.

"Lord Nikolai is truly the savior of our Chernobog!"

The Ursus officials around them also had happy expressions on their faces.

As the payment from the Western Pharmacy entered the International Commercial Bank, the Chernobyl government immediately used the money from the piled-up medicines to start a series of long-shelved plans, and the lifeless city of Chernobyl suddenly became lively.

The production cost of the drugs is significantly lower than the selling price.

The influx of such a large amount of money has brought visible vitality to the city. The capital market does not require the city government to actually spend money, but only needs to know that the city government has money, and the market will give a high degree of positive feedback.

Ursus has won countless times!

More and more patriotic businessmen gathered and entered the Chernobyl City Hall under the escort of soldiers.

The mayor sat down and let two attendants wipe his gown. He smiled and said, "Peterheim Middle School and the Fourth Middle School have been short of education funds for a long time. This time they will be able to make up for it."

"Mayor. There are huge gaps in the government offices, and the needs of the middle school are just to add new desks, chairs and teaching materials. Let them be self-sufficient and make their own chalk, desks and chairs, which is also to train the students' abilities."

The civil servant beside him spoke softly.

The mayor nodded in agreement. "That's true. The next generation of Ursus can't be like the Victorians who can't even sharpen their own pencils. Let's make the children suffer a little longer."

"As you wish. The children will understand your efforts."

"Also, don't be so close with the Longmen prefect. The government office visits every year, but the Yan Kingdom blockade is still strict. What use is he? If it weren't for the Western Pharmacy, Qie City might have locked itself up here. Withdraw some of the contact with him and transfer it to the Western Pharmacy."

"That's what we have in mind."

The civil servants' support made the mayor feel quite comfortable speaking.

Seeing that the mayor stopped talking about his nonsense that even the kids at Peterheim High School knew, the civil servant pointed to the merchants who were entering the venue and began to talk about the government's arrangements for this trade opportunity.

"For the Yan Country Chemical Industry Platform, the government has decided to conduct it in the form of a tender, so as to allow as many businessmen as possible to participate. Factories in related industries in the city have been stagnant for a long time, and almost all of them are laying off employees. This time, many unstable factors can be resolved..."

The mayor was a little confused: "Do we have so much money?"

If Chernobyl had the money to bid for the construction of an industrial platform, the government would not be in such a state. When they received a sum of money from the Yan Country, they were so excited that they felt like a long-awaited rain.

"It's not us who pay, it's the merchants themselves who pay."

"What nonsense are you talking about."

"There is a wise Lord Yuan in Yan Country. He is the nephew of the Emperor of Yan Country. He has made many requests to us that we find difficult to refuse. In addition to producing chemical intermediates, the chemical industry platform will also produce supplementary foods and establish a joint venture company."

The civil servant explained: "After the current stage is over, the Western Pharmacy will directly use the cola puree and other supplementary foods it produces to purchase our medicines. If it can be as popular as the cola and puffed foods produced by Victoria, there will be no shortage of markets in the empire."

"As long as we can get the merchants moving and allow them to have this big order from Yan Country, they are willing to even pay money to the government to get this opportunity."

Simply put, Yuan Congqian did not just lay his eggs on Lord Nicholas.

The eggs were also placed in the Chernobyl City Government Office.

The Ursus people focused on heavy industry and ignored light industry, so he took advantage of the light industry and took the initiative to become the canteen of the Ursus people. Due to ethnic and geographical factors, it is difficult for the Ursus people on the snow to resist the sweet taste.

The fighting around Ursus was exciting for a whole round, and seeing Yan Country being so considerate, they were naturally overjoyed.

How much does the bear like supplementary food? The former Soviet Union banned the import of Western capitalist cola. In order to drink American cola, Zhukov directly ordered the smuggling of cola, removed the caramel coloring, affixed a red star, and claimed that it was a special vodka.

Later, the Russians even directly exchanged warships for Coke!

Yuan Congqian knew exactly what the Ursus people wanted.

I let you build my chemical industry and light industry for me for free, and then I sell the industrial products produced to you. You still have to thank me with a smug look on your face and exchange them for boxes of western medicine and industrial equipment.

It's really like Qin Shihuang touching the electric wire, he's so excited to win.

The contents were carefully dissected for the mayor.

The mayor held his wine glass and sighed, "He earned the industrial base and made money. We sold the accumulated goods, had a canteen, and made money. Did the money just come out of thin air? Who is losing money?"

"Nobody's losing money, sir."

"Yes, yes, maybe no one is losing money! This is really a two-nation miracle."

"Yan Country has a tolerant policy towards the infected. We might as well include immigration benefits in the proposal submitted to His Majesty. Ursus is in Terra, and there are many powerful enemies. We can't let Yan Country in the rear become an enemy..."

Chapter 68: Fu's Tuberculosis

The Imperial City of Hundreds of Ovens, Simuitai.

A candle holder was summoned by General Zuo and walked towards his office.

Along the way, colleagues wearing red robes of the Si Sui Tai just nodded slightly to her and hurried away with the documents in their arms.

Simuitai had candle holders who were good at fighting, and naturally there were also ordinary clerks, but the clerks' expressions and footsteps were much more hurried than the last time she left Beijing, and they all looked very haggard.

She ran into another clerk who was going to report to General Zuo's office.

The other person's face was full of fatigue and haggardness. When he saw the man holding the candle, he bowed as a greeting.

"Sister Rong. Long time no see."

"It's just a trip to Jiang Qi to eat, drink and have fun."

Rong Wanqing smiled and started chatting with him. Anyway, the door of the office was not open, which meant that General Zuo had something else to discuss. It would be better to go to a corner and talk with colleagues about the customs and practices of Jiangqi City, which would also be a good way to relax.

"You look like you haven't slept in days."

"Don't mention it. If it weren't for that..."

He waved his hands and was about to complain, but then he closed his mouth involuntarily.

Rong Wanqing became curious. What is something that even the candlelight holders cannot listen to?

"Could it be that those two in Bai Zao have caused some action again?"

"That's right. The one with number three is nowhere to be seen all day. She either goes to the alley to buy wine or goes to the cold temple to drink. The one with number five is even more troublesome every day. She actually wants to circulate the vulgar characters she wrote throughout the world..."

"Yeah, it's really hard. Unlike Jiang Qi, he just refused to come out to see me."

"There is another one, that is Yuan Congqian!"

When he mentioned this name, he gritted his teeth and wished he could eat the man's flesh alive.

Rong Wanqing searched for a moment in her mind and finally found a familiar impression: "Queen Yuan's nephew? Considering the time and the relationship with the Tianshi Mansion, he should be the Tianshi's apprentice now. What happened to him?"

"The official duties we received from Number Seven in a year, added together, are not even as much as his ten-day holiday! General Zuo has cancelled all the holidays for the first ten-day and the current ten-day. What a thief, what a thief!"

"It sounds like he has gathered all twelve fragments of the Years and is holding a party."

Rong Wanqing just smiled and didn't take it to heart.

She thought to herself: Si Sui Tai, it's good enough that he can understand the zodiac signs distributed in Yan State, how can he have the time to take care of a relative? Maybe Yuan Xiao Tianshi is so handsome, and the general is interested in marrying his daughter?

Faintly, the sound from inside the door gradually became louder.

So that the two people outside the door could hear the conversation between General Zuo and the clerk.

"...Jie's ambitions are almost the same as Yuan Congqian's, so she must be eliminated. Yanyan is flying, Jie is fighting against her, how can Da Yan be so chaotic? Her name means that she will bring unprecedented chaos to Da Yan!

We can still delay for another three years. Within three years, she must die outside the capital. She likes calligraphy, so send her to a remote mobile city to teach, and then let the Tianji Pavilion go south to encircle and suppress her. I will go there myself..."

"General, the beasts of the year in the territory are all in peace, so why start another war?"

"Oh, Shuo's martial arts are well-known throughout the world, and his lyrics and music are sung by all scholars and literati. There are also merchants who circulate the fragments of Sui in Yan Country. Even at this level, they are still not satisfied. Do you know what will happen if Jie succeeds?

"The characters in Da Yan are all the vulgar characters she has used! All the students in the past dynasties have to call Jie their teacher! The simplified vulgar characters are different in each generation. She spent her whole life studying classics in Shiqu Pavilion and was able to determine the standard form of characters!"

"Isn't this the imperial examination..."

"Put Jie in jail, first intimidate her, then coerce and bribe her to teach..."

What was said inside the door made Rong Wanqing sweat profusely.

General Zuo and General Da conspired to kill the third sister in the statue fragments. Is this something she can listen to?

The voice inside seemed to know that its voice was too loud, so it lowered its voice again.

After all, the office was luxuriously decorated, and there was a special pepper wall on the outside as a herb and soundproofing. This pepper wall alone cost several thousand taels. If the conversation was not too loud, ordinary conversations would hardly penetrate.
