Chapter 881： First day's salary

Chapter 881 First Day’s Salary

Looking at the surprised looks in Figos and Brandon's eyes, the two Skrulls couldn't help but smile with disdain.

What a bunch of country bumpkins who have never seen the world!

But this contempt was fleeting and was quickly hidden by them.

This small spaceship is the vehicle of the general manager of the mining company. There is no need to queue at the entrance of the public passage like the shuttle spacecraft.

The spacecraft bypassed the public passage and entered the exclusive passage. It only took more than 10 minutes to enter the base and parked in a small hangar.

Stepping off the spacecraft, they were greeted by a well-dressed, middle-aged male Skrull, who was the secretary to the general manager of the mining company.

Seeing Brandon, he hurriedly greeted him: "You have finally arrived, Mr. Brandon! The boss is waiting for you in the reception room!"

The secretary knows Brandon’s identity.

Now Brandon is a popular figure around the Emperor and Mr. Plant, and they don't dare to neglect him at all.

“Uh, um…” Brandon hesitated obviously.

To be honest, he wants to shoot a promotional video now and doesn’t want to engage in these boring entertainment.

But the boss is a local snake after all, and it is difficult to refuse such hospitality.

“Okay then, I’ll go see President Koenna.” Brandon nodded.

But then he said: "My assistant will not come with me. You can arrange a suitable place for him to stay. We will have important things to do with him later."

“Understood!” the secretary replied immediately, and ordered his entourage to entertain Figos well.

…

 Brandon followed the secretary and left.

Figos was led to a small reception room in the base by his secretary and received him warmly.

However, Figos did not understand the Skrull language, and the food he ordered his servants to bring was not to his taste, so the atmosphere at the scene was always very awkward.

It wasn’t until an hour later that the door to the reception room was opened again.

"Are you Fergus? Master Brandon asked us to take you there." Two Skrulls in white uniforms showed their IDs to the entourage and said to Fergus.

Figos couldn't understand what they were saying.

The word "Brandon" was not distinctly audible in their language, but he probably understood it from the word alone.

Figos nodded and left the reception room with them.

…

The two Skrulls took Figos around in the main base and changed several modes of transportation.

Finally, they came to a very spacious and bright main control room.

This main control room is very large, almost as big as a standard football field.

There are rows of operation consoles placed in the main control room.

  Skrulls wearing khaki uniforms sat in front of the console, concentrating on swiping around on the console interface with their fingers.

“Figos, here, here!”

Before Figos could see the entire main control room clearly, he heard Brandon's voice coming from the side.

He did not dare to neglect and hurriedly walked towards Brandon's location.

While Brandon was greeting Figos, he was also standing in front of an operation console, swiping his fingers back and forth on the interface of the operation console with great interest.

When Figos came to him, before Figos could speak, Brandon patted him on the shoulder happily: "Figos, this is what I fought for for you. In the next three years, this is Your job!"

“???” Figos was startled.

This is his job?    He wants to work here?

This was completely beyond his expectation.

Last night he heard many companions talk about the profession of "planetary miner".

This profession requires you to go deep into the underground mines of Bona Planet to mine, and you have to wear a heavy mecha, which is actually very tiring.

But now, his job is to just stay at the headquarters and move his fingers? What kind of magic job is this?

Before Figos had fully recovered, Brandon had already put his arm around his shoulders and enthusiastically pulled him to the front of the console.

“You see, this is the ‘mining console’, which is used to control fully automated heavy machinery to mine deep underground.

These red color blocks on the screen are valuable ores, the yellow color blocks are ordinary rocks that are worthless, and the black and slowly moving ones are the detection devices of the excavation equipment..."

 Brandon roughly told what he knew, and then he hired a special Skrull master for Figos, and asked the Skrull master to teach Figos how to use the console in translated English.

 Brandon stood aside and filmed the entire teaching process.

…

Figos studied very seriously.

He knew this was the only chance for him.

There are no other Blue Star apprentices near him, he is the only one.

If he learns and masters well, it is very likely that the Skrulls will stay at the headquarters.

But if he doesn’t learn well, he’ll probably be sent to the front line for mining after Brandon’s video is finished!

Obviously working at the headquarters is a hundred times better than working on the front line, so of course he has to work twice as hard!

…

The whole day passed quickly as Figos studied seriously and attentively.

Through learning, he found that the console is still easy to use.

With only half a day of instruction from his master, Figos was able to successfully get started and operate it freely, and even his master praised him repeatedly.

As for Brandon.

 Brandon left the main control room at 11 a.m., seemingly going to socialize.

However, the camera he turned on was never turned off, and was always filming Figos's every move.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Brandon returned to the main control room.

Hearing Master Figos’ praise for him, Brandon patted him on the shoulder happily: “Man, good job!

Now you can get off work and report to the logistics office. The staff of the logistics office will arrange a place for you to stay. "

“Ah? Are you getting off work now?” Figos was still a little unfinished.

To be honest, playing the console is a bit as enjoyable as playing a game, and he hasn’t had enough of it yet.

But just when he said goodbye to Brandon and was about to go to the "Logistics Department", Brandon suddenly stopped him: "Wait a minute, Figos."

“Sir Brandon, what else can you do?”

“It’s like this. It’s time for your salary to be paid today. Since you haven’t applied for a bank card yet, I’ll give you cash directly.”

Brandon took out a few banknotes, counted them, and then placed them in Figos's palm: "This is 1,000 Sun coins, your first day's salary. By the way, everyone here is paid on a daily basis. ”

“Thank you, Lord Figos!” Figos said happily.

His master also echoed: "Sir Brandon is right. You are a newcomer now, so your salary is very low. After one or two years, as you become more proficient, your salary will increase by about one-third. Based on your first day, It’s not difficult at all, just keep working hard!”

“Good master, I will definitely work hard!” Figos promised immediately.
