Chapter 342 The helplessness of office workers

Chapter 342 The helplessness of office workers

In the early morning of July 22, the weather was sunny and cloudless.

Luo Mu got up early today, feeling refreshed and welcoming the new day.

After all, today will be the first day of trial operation for the farm’s newly expanded milk ordering business.

For Luo Mu, the nine customers on the first day were still willing to order Moo Moo Milk without Luo Mu revealing his name. This trust must be continued.

Come to the pasture area.

After the high-intensity exercise yesterday afternoon, the big milk jugs were obviously still a little confused at this time. Not only were their eyelids fighting, but they were also yawning constantly from their mouths.

With the help of the chimpanzee, the confused big milk tanks were brought to a newly built room on the edge of the ranch area.

There is a rather exquisite rectangular machine placed in the room. It is made of the best food-grade materials. It has five milking positions and can milk five large milk tanks at once.

This machine is an automatic milking machine specially customized by Luo Mu from a manufacturer in Niangguang City.

Fortunately, Luo Mu had already experienced the automatic milking machine with the big milk cans and the others a few days ago. The big milk cans had no objection at all to having cup-shaped objects worn on their bodies.

It would be better to say that even though they were still a little confused at this time, they still felt a sense of expectation in their hearts.

With the intake of nutrients, they will be troubled by milk engorgement almost every morning.

If they hadn't learned to control the machine yet, otherwise they wouldn't even need Luo Mu, and they could operate the machine themselves to relieve their own stress.

As the machine started to run, it made a slight buzzing sound, and the fresh milk from the big milk cans was continuously squeezed out and poured into the dust-proof milk bucket inside the machine through clean pipes that were cleaned once.

Finally, it is poured into the prepared glass bottle through the dispensing function of the machine, sealed with a cap, and the date is burned.

It must be said that technology has indeed liberated the labor force.

If Luo Mu were to perform these operations again, he would have to get up at five or even four in the morning.

Because the total amount of Moo Moo milk ordered by customers is only forty bottles, each bottle is about 750 ml, more Moo Moo milk is still stored in a machine with a refrigeration function, waiting for Luo Mu to use it when making various dairy products. .

After the five large milk cans were successfully milked, they let out a cry of relief and retreated to the side.

Later, the mosquito-repellent incense kings and mosquito-repellent incense gentlemen who had been waiting for a long time started to clean the machine with foam light in conjunction with the machine's self-cleaning function.

After cleaning, they put on two more lambs and came to the milking machine. After installing the milking machine, they squeezed out a small bucket of goat milk in the same way.

When Luo Mu and Zhihuorang arrived outside the special milking room with today's goods, the steel-armored crows with their heads held high had been waiting here for a long time under the leadership of Kuailong.

Yesterday, Luo Mu notified through Sanmao that the number of steel-armored crows needed today was nine. Kuailong led the team to deliver fresh moo milk and goat milk by air to nine households in Pingdie Town.

Next to the nine steel-armored crows are black baskets that match their jet-black metal armor.

The basket is also customized according to the size of the glass bottle, and has special grooves to hold the glass bottle to prevent the bottle from breaking due to collision during transportation.

After Luo Mu put the corresponding moo milk and goat milk according to the different destinations of each steel-armored crow, several steel-armored crows steadily grabbed the black basket made of special material and was not easy to bend. They took off neatly and flew towards their destination.

That gesture was just like the Steel-Armored Crow clan grabbing an air taxi and flying in the sky in the Galar region.

At this time, the time has quietly arrived at 6:40 in the morning.

"Boooo"

Kuailong regretfully waved to Luo Mu to say goodbye. This time it was burdened with a heavy task, and it really couldn't hug him every day. It could only wait until the work was completed before hugging him enough.

As Kuailong's orange figure disappeared into the sky, Luo Mu, who was staring at the sky and caressing his chest, felt a rare sense of tension today.

But he also believed that the Kuailong and the Steel-Armored Crows, who had been trained and passed their own tests, could successfully complete their first delivery mission.

In the blue sky, Kuailong flapped the small dragon wings on its back easily, and the flowing wind surrounded it, as if it was guarding its monarch.

Its gaze dropped downwards. Except for the nine steel-armored crows flying in a "V" shape, Kuailong's attention was more distributed on the land outside Pingdie Town, searching for the pink figure.

According to Luo Mu, steel-armored crows, as bird Pokémon with intelligent thinking abilities, are naturally suited to the work of delivering and transporting objects by air.

Their steel claws can firmly grasp transported objects, and they can easily hold even carriages weighing hundreds of kilograms and fly hundreds of kilometers.

The steel-armored crow is a master at memorizing aerial routes. Once it has been to a place once, it will almost never forget it.

However, the Steel Armored Crow taxi and delivery services were completely unpopular in the Padia region, and the biggest reason why they were even usurped by the Angry Parrots was the evolutionary chain of a Pokémon that lives in Padia——

The Little Blacksmith, the Skillful Blacksmith, and the Great Blacksmith.

In particular, the giant blacksmith among them can even swing a huge hammer on the ground to knock away rocks and accurately hit the steel-armored crow in the air.

The fact that they are distributed in the wild in the Padia region is the real reason why it is not possible to use steel-armored crows for delivery and work on flying taxis.

Even in the sky, Dragonite has a pair of sharp eyes that are not inferior to any bird. Its job today is to check whether there are any groups of this race around Pingdie Town.

Fortunately, they seem to have been favored by the goddess of luck today, and there are no pink figures that are like ghosts to Steel Armored Crows roaming around Pingdie Town.

But Dragonite dare not take it lightly.

To ask why, because Dragonite vaguely remembers that when he was taking a nap in the sky, he seemed to have seen a pink figure with a hammer in the wild forest or some ruins.

When the nine Steel Armored Crows completely flew into the area of ​​Pingdie Town and flew towards their destinations.

Dragonite flapped its dragon wings to identify the breath left by the nine Steel Armored Crows in the air, and flew in the direction of the Steel Armored Crow it was most worried about under the guidance of the wind.

Pingdie Town, No. 145 Renmin Road.

Compared with the apartment buildings that look like pigeon cages, the residents living here have lived in Pingdie Town for generations.

They bought the land at the most favorable price and lived in a residential area where "single-family" houses were built under the coordination of the previous mayor.

Masayuki, 29 years old this year, male, is an office worker.

Just like the growth trajectory of most ordinary people, or it can be said that his name is a blessing.

Masayuki spent a normal and lucky childhood.

After entering society and starting to work, he met his current wife Hinata, fell in love and got married. This single-family house was also left by his parents. He and his wife gave birth to a five-year-old child, Sunflower, without any pressure.

But recently Masayuki's lucky BUFF seems to have failed. His virtuous wife who stays at home full-time has complaints about him for some inexplicable reason. Only after Masayuki repeatedly questioned her did she confide her dissatisfaction.

It turned out that Sunflower, now five years old, is not as tall or as big as her peers in school. She looks thin and small, as if she is stunted. Even teachers at school have visited her repeatedly, suspecting that the couple is secretly abusing children.

After asking the mothers of other children, Hinata found out that they had spent a lot of money to order the freshest Moo Moo milk from the neighboring Zhuotai City and delivered it through the cold chain.

The other party also boasted that the nutritional value of fresh Moo Moo milk and Moo Moo milk that had been stored for several days was very different.

It was like the last straw that broke the camel's back. Hinata, who had been secretly anxious in her heart, expressed some specious complaints to her husband who came home from get off work for the first time.

Generally speaking, why their family could not even afford fresh Moo Moo milk to supplement the nutrition of the children, and could only go to the supermarket to buy refrigerated products that had been stored for who knows how many days.

Hinata, the wife, knew that she was making trouble for no reason and putting psychological pressure on her husband who worked hard to support the family. She wiped her tears with guilt and said that she might as well go to the ranch in the suburbs to work and earn some money to supplement the family.

This made Masayuki silent and a little powerless.

Sunflower is now in the growth period, and a bottle of Moo Moo Milk a day is an indispensable consumption. Now Moo Moo Milk in the supermarket costs about 500 Alliance Coins, but if you order it from the next-door market, plus the transportation cost, the price of a bottle is at least 1,000 Alliance Coins.

The monthly expenses have almost doubled, which is a heavy pressure for the small family where only Masayuki works to support the family, but he really can't bear to let his wife, who takes on all the work at home and has to pick up and drop off the children, go to work.

Until a few days ago, on his way home from get off work, he met a familiar-looking person who was handing out flyers with a Pokémon that looked like a gorilla.

Even though Masayuki had the dream of becoming a trainer when he was young, the dream has long faded, and the original Pokémon, Scorching Crocodile, has now become his wife's cooking helper.

Only in his spare time, Masayuki would open a can of beer, play the old videotapes with nostalgia, and watch the passionate Pokémon battles between trainers.

Masayuki was sure that he had seen the young man somewhere before, but the fatigue from work made his brain rusty after work, so he couldn't remember where he had seen him before, and just stood there.

When Masayuki came to his senses, the other party had already handed him a flyer with a smile.

For some reason, even though the other party was doing a part-time job of handing out flyers, Masayuki felt that the other party's smile was dazzling. After taking the flyer, he ran away as if he was scalded.

That kind of confidence was the dazzling sun that Masayuki couldn't face now.

When he returned home, Masayuki realized that he was still holding the flyer. For some reason, he didn't throw it into the trash can, but spread it out and browsed it.

When he noticed the slogan, Masayuki was stunned and showed a surprised expression.

It was a flyer promoting the milk subscription business, saying that it used fresh milk squeezed daily, delivered that morning, and the price was within Masayuki's affordability.

Perhaps he wanted to take a gamble, so he chose to send his residential address and order letter to the address on the flyer.

Then, time passed, and soon it was the agreed delivery time.

Fortunately, he got up early today, and even his wife and daughter were still sleeping.

In the living room with the lights off, Masayuki walked around the table anxiously, and because he was afraid of waking up his sleeping wife and children, he even walked carefully.

Until the old clock hanging on the wall stopped at 6:55 in the morning, there was a knock on the door on time.

Masayuki came to the door almost with his hands and feet, as if he had waited for his savior, and opened the door gently with an expectant smile: "Good morning"

Masayuki's eyes fell on the knocker, his words paused, and his expression was slightly dull.

What did he see?

A simple and honest Dragonite and a Steelix that looked extremely brave with three scratches on its chest!

In Dragonite's hand, in the black basket were two bottles of Moo Moo Milk that Masayuki ordered!

One bottle for his wife Hinata, who was doing housework and taking care of the children, and one bottle for his growing daughter Himawari.

As a current office worker who once dreamed of becoming a powerful trainer, Masayuki still knows a lot of Pokémon, except for the white-haired gorilla next to the young man that day.

The two Pokémon in front of him are Dragonite, a dragon-type Pokémon with extremely high rarity and synonymous with power.

And Steeljaw, which is covered in black armor and seems to reflect the breathtaking cold light under the sunlight, perfectly hits the XP hidden deep in Masayuki's heart.

Both Pokémon are powerful and handsome, and they are the powerful Pokémon that Masayuki dreamed of when he was a trainer.

Oh my God, is he behind the times?

There are still people who use Pokémon such as Dragonite and Steeljaw, which have both good looks and strength, to deliver Moo Moo Milk? !
