Chapter 140: The Tragic World (1)
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Eugene Galaxy was an ordinary galaxy in the Milky Way.
Compared to those unremarkable galaxies, Eugene Galaxy had something that was slightly worth noting, and that was that there was a native civilization here.
It was a native that evolved from lifeforms similar to canines. In order to adapt to the cold climate of their planet, they had furry bodies.
According to recent discoveries, the native civilization here had already advanced to the atomic age, and nuclear energy had become an efficient energy source for the civilization.
However, natives were natives. Other than civilizations that had a need for sociological research and civilizations that were passionate about helping natives, most civilizations would find it difficult to be interested in natives.
However, apart from civilization as a whole, there were still many individuals who were interested in the natives, such as some native poachers.
In fact, the poaching of the natives of Eugene Galaxy was once very rampant. The canine natives here had a sky-high price in the interstellar pet market.
However, with the changes in the market and the operation of the Pyro Alliance in the Galaxy Community, the punishment for the native poachers had become stricter, and the canine natives were gradually forgotten.
Today, no one was interested in the ordinary natives here. Even poachers were too lazy to come to this place.
Unfortunately, Eugene Galaxy was right next to the Servant Paradise that had just joined the interstellar society.
What was even more unfortunate was that the mechanical servants of the Servant Paradise decided to find more masters, so they set their sights on this aboriginal planet.
“Little Cheng, your work attitude recently is not good… Look, everyone else is fighting for the company’s future. Why did you get off work at the same time?”
“The company doesn’t pay overtime, so 1 don’t work overtime.”
In a company in a native country on this planet, a friendly exchange between the department and its subordinates was taking place.
Little Cheng was a new employee of this company. Although the old employees advised him not to leave work so early, he insisted that it was illegal to not have overtime pay.
So, after he did not volunteer to work overtime for a week, his boss called him.
“Little Cheng, you can eat whatever you want, but you can’t say whatever you want. Why doesn’t the company have overtime pay? However, the company is in a very difficult situation now. It’s at a critical period in our career. We need to tide over the difficulties together!
“Look at those old employees. Which one of them didn’t volunteer? Little Cheng, you’re still young. You have to learn to put yourself in the other’s shoes. You have to learn to understand the company’s difficulties and overcome them. Only when the company is better will everyone be better!”
Little Cheng listened to his superior’s earnest advice and secretly glanced at him without saying a word.
His superior’s words were very emotional, and his tone was rhythmic. It was as if he was really in some difficult situation that needed to be overcome together.
But in fact, Little Cheng had just seen his boss buy a house in full some time ago. He even secretly gave a car to a relative of a big shot. He didn’t know where the money came from.
“Sigh, Little Cheng, 1 know you’re young and impetuous, but there are benefits to being young! If you start to work hard now, you won’t have a problem living for the next ten years!
“I was as young as you back then, but I worked hard for more than ten years to achieve what 1 have now! You’re younger than me, so your future is immeasurable!
“So listen to my advice. Work hard, work hard, and think about your future. The next big boss will be you!”
“Yes, yes, you’re right…” Little Cheng didn’t want to listen to this nonsense anymore. He followed his superior’s words and found an excuse to leave.
A few old employees also saw him, but they all hurriedly greeted him and passed him by. They were still working overtime.
Looking at these voluntary overtime employees and thinking about his future vision, Little Cheng sighed and left the company.
The place where he worked was considered a big company that colluded with many forces. An ordinary person like him could not defeat them at all.
There were many stubborn young men who had decided to use extreme suicide to threaten their boss after the arbitration failed to gain their rights.
However, they were soon labeled as maliciously asking for salary. Their lives were ruined.
He was just trying to enjoy the rest time he had before the company got impatient. It wouldn’t be long before he became one of those voluntary overtime employees.
The scenery along the way was a little bleak. It was winter now, and the average temperature was below zero degrees.
However, there were occasionally beggars who were driven away on the streets. These disabled people could not find any jobs. In order to maintain their lives, they could only hope that someone on the road would show them mercy.
However, it was obvious that they had affected the city’s appearance and were expelled by the patrol team.
Although there were relief stations sponsored by the noble grandfathers in the city, they only accepted people who could do heavy physical labor, and the number of places was limited every day.
However, this scene was already common in the city. All the pedestrians on the streets only glanced at it coldly and then went to do what they had to do.
Although Little Cheng was touched, he could do nothing about it. After ail, he had to scrimp and save to maintain his life..
