"Oh my god, it's you, Ken, it must be you!" After a brief shock, a middle-aged man walked towards a former gold digger who had posted his name in surprise, and the two quickly Just hugged each other.
Ken blushed a little when facing this middle-aged man. This was his good friend when he was young. It was during the gold rush period. Influenced by many legendary stories, both of them yearned for the pleasant life in the West.
Then one stays at home and studies life step by step, enters the society, starts working, gets married and has children, and has a happy family.
another one
After his head got hot, he left the city alone and plunged into the belly of this man-eating monster in the West with his few savings.
This was the first meeting between the two after more than ten years since their last meeting. The middle-aged man’s clothes allowed Ken to guess his wealthy life. Judging from his beautiful wife and two sensible and obedient children, he You should be living happily now.
Ken was relieved, but also a little uncomfortable, and had some indescribable feelings.
Compared with his friends, he is not doing well now.
The gold mining life for so many years did not make him rich, and almost all the money earned in the dangerous life was spent on squandering.
Every gold digger leads a precarious life, and perhaps one trip out may be an eternal farewell.
In such an insecure life, money is their only pursuit, and it is also the squandering they least cherish.
Who knows if I will die due to some accident, and then others will take away the money I exchanged for my life to enjoy life. Why not spend the money and enjoy my life first, and then later
Let’s talk about it later!
Fortunately, the west is now very peaceful. I am not sure about other places, but Ambluo State is the safest place.
He also successfully registered his identity as a gold prospector and received a dog tag to hang around his neck. They called this "tour guide tag."
In addition to proving their identity as former gold diggers, they can also be hired by tourists and take them along the prescribed route to the depths of the wilderness to experience real western life.
Although a little inexplicably unhappy, Ken is still very satisfied with his current life, because it is no longer so dangerous and he can also save some savings.
Recently, he was lucky enough to meet a girl. He doesn't want to continue to drift around. He saves a little money, then confesses his love and strives to stabilize.
The two chatted for a while, and then he took his friend's family and another tour guide to start traveling along the prescribed route.
I have to say that Dulin's plan was very successful. The indescribable wilderness of Ambiro State is like the lost primitive world described by the master of oil painting, full of vitality and hidden dangers.
It is both refreshing and a little thrilling and exciting.
The "Hero's Journey" project in Ambiluo State has become the most attractive project. In fact, to put it bluntly, it means experiencing the location where the protagonist in the movie was shot. If you have more money, you can also play the protagonist in the movie for a plot. Du Lin's newly established tourism bureau will arrange for people to film them and send them to these tourists after editing.
Of course, ordinary tourist routes are also very popular, especially for those who have lived in modern cities for a long time and have never been out. Ambiro State is like a paradise in their minds.
Even the smell of horse excrement seems to have become fragrant. Of course, almost every tourist will be given a pamphlet when they come to Ambluo State. It has already explained that it is best not to eat horse excrement, and eating horse excrement can also cure the disease. No disease.
The hot tourism market has successfully fulfilled the green tourism economy proposed by Dulin and boosted the economic level of the entire state.
As long as you are not a lazy person and are willing to work, you can find a suitable job.
Even if you don't want to work, if you decorate your house, you can still register it in the book of the B&B management office. Even if you don't get rich overnight, you can still have food and clothing.
After all, traveling to the West is not just for a day or two. Each group of tourists often stays here for five to seven days. In addition to hotels with local characteristics, B&Bs are also one of the most popular tourism projects.
It seems that only in this way can we get closer to the life in the west and enjoy the leisure time in the west.
Ken and his friend's family spent seven days playing in the West. The happy time always passed quickly and parting was just around the corner.
There was a slight sadness between the two of them, but this sadness was quickly dissipated by his friend's next words.
"I think you can go to the Eagle's Beak and try..."
After sending his friends away, Ken returned to the city and found a store selling televisions. People in other places may not have discovered anything, but in the West, almost all stores selling televisions always have the most eye-catching display cabinets. They were all playing the episode of The Land of Gold on repeat.
It took Ken more than an hour to finish watching this episode, and then he silently returned to the small house he bought with an interest-free loan, took out all the money, suspended his work as a tour guide, and found Ambluo State Social Services Ministry officials.
Facing these well-dressed staff, he instinctively felt a little restrained, "I... would like to ask, how to get to the Eagle Beak area in the Western Continent?"
The staff received him warmly and arranged a free study class. After three days of intense study, he got on the train heading west.
He will board the ship at a port on the west coast, then cross the ocean directly to the Eagle Beak region, and he will also obtain a cost-priced semi-automatic rifle, which is much easier to use than a shotgun.
The people on the ship also sent him a special map, marking the five current supply points in the Eagle Beak area, as well as the areas that have been explored and those that have not been explored.
Ken didn't notice it when he was on the boat, but when he got off the boat, he realized that so many people were here, and that several batches had been delivered before, and there was a steady stream of people waiting to come here.
Here... is the real West, the West in his mind.
The blood that had been silent for a long time began to boil again. Carrying a simple bag and a rifle, he turned back and took one last look in the direction of the empire before diving into the lively gathering place.
This time, if I don’t get rich, I will never go back!
"From the middle of last month to now, more than 4,000 people have been sent there, and the number of people registered is rising rapidly." Savi reported on the current progress of the work, and Dulin nodded with satisfaction.
If nothing else happens, by the end of this year, the number of gold diggers in the Eagle's Mouth region of the Western Continent may exceed the mark of around 20,000 to 30,000. These numbers may seem like a lot, but after being distributed throughout the Eagle's Mouth region, they will be very few. Pitiful.
Compared to those tribes where hundreds or hundreds of people gather at every turn, these people are far from enough.
The security problem in the empire will only get better and better, and there will be fewer and fewer lawless places. It is unrealistic to force the bad guys to do good things. In the end, more difficult criminal methods will most likely be born.
On the contrary, it is better to export these dishonest people to the Eagle's Mouth region and make money legally in the way they like. This will not only solve the security problems that may arise when they are in the country, but also solve the indigenous problems in the Eagle's Mouth region.
So far, the five supply points in the Eagle Beak area are managed by Savi and his men. Now Sal is a young man in his twenties. He has accompanied Dulin through many lives and deaths, and he is worthy of trust. Our own people should also have their own "career".
Besides, he also likes these things, and that's what matters most.
"Intensify publicity, set up role models, select a few people who are easy to control, and give them a good command, so that people know that to be a human being, you must not only have dreams, but also have the ability to act."
"Perhaps when will I be able to become a representative of successful people and a creator of the dream of an empire? Anyone with 110 million can achieve it, let alone this little difficulty?"
Du Lin's tricks are also very old-fashioned, but old-fashioned things just work, and they don't distinguish between levels and levels.
The empire established the middle class in front of the bottom of society and told people that as long as they worked hard, they would have the opportunity to become the middle class.
Then put the upper class in front of the middle class and tell them that as long as they work hard, they will have the opportunity to enter the upper class.
They also placed the powerful and powerful politicians in the most dazzling places in the upper class society, and then told them that as long as they abide by the rules and regulations of society and work hard to make progress within the rules of the game, they may not have no chance to live in the spotlight.
Dulin is a good role model, a living advertisement. Although his methods are completely different from what the official propaganda says, the officials don't seem to care at all and continue to apply this script to him and promote it, and he has won Great response.
Of course, there are also his own contributions and ideas in this. After all, as long as you are an individual, you cannot survive independently of society, so naturally what you do must be in line with the mainstream values of society.
With these gold diggers who become rich overnight, and then report it, it can further stimulate some hesitant people in the country.
In fact, humans are very stupid animals, because humans like to compare and maximize their own thresholds in extremely small probabilities.
They often deceive themselves with stupid words such as "He is not even as good as me, if he can succeed, then I will also succeed", and then happily fall into the abyss.
What is even more stupid is that when they find the gap between reality and ideal, they will comfort themselves to accept everything and numb themselves.
From persisting a little longer to persisting for so long anyway, maybe success is not far away, human beings are so stupid that they are cute!
