After entering the door, Xie Tao saw the environment inside more clearly.
The area of this raising a.s.sociation was very large, but it was also very empty. There were only a few main buildings and other open s.p.a.ces seem to be so idle.
The iron gate at the entrance was rusted and there was no guard at the gate. The flower beds and lawns on the roadside seemed to have not been pruned for a long time...
Xie Tao went to the place where the office building should be. The closer he got closer, the more worried he became.
It was not because of the fact that this branch of the cub raising a.s.sociation was not very to good at, but more so of what it said about its economic situation. Even if the correct way to save the world was for him come here as a childcare worker, Xie Tao felt a sense of crisis in that this place seemed like it will close its door at any time..
Sigh.
No matter what, just apply first.
Shaking of his off messy thoughts, Xie Tao stopped in front of a wooden door with an office sign and raised his right hand to knock twice.
"Hey."
After a crisp knock on the door, it took about three or four seconds, and there was a slight hesitation in the office. "Please come in."
Xie Tao opened the door and walked in.
....Human?
Seeing the young human being who walked in, the girl who sat at the desk and counted the monthly income and expenses was obviously stunned, but she quickly reacted. She stood up and politely asked: "h.e.l.lo, sir, you are here for....?"
The young girl who was questioning him was pretty and looked human, the only difference that could be seen was the two small antennas on her head as well as the fact that she occasionally swayed slightly when she spoke. When Xie Tao got closer he also saw that her eyes had abnormally larger pupils.
Although Xie Tao has seen many non-human races as he had been led here by the golden light ball, this kind of close contact with an alien race was still a novel experience for Xie Tao. His mood was very unstable and we wasn't sure what to feel.
If he looked at it from the perspective of an artist, Xie Tao actually felt that this experience was very interesting and would give him lots of inspiration.
"To apply." Xie Tao replied in a loud voice and at the same time he put the piece of paper that had been removed from the iron gate on the front desk. "I saw the job flyer attached to the door."
The young girl hadn't expected this answer and her antennas slightly shook as she widened her eyes in surprise.
The job flyer had been posted on the door for several months. Of course, at many other places on the street as well. However despite that, in the past few months, no one else had applied for it. She and the president had lost all hope of recruiting people.
If the salary was high, you can of course easily recruit people, but the problem was that their branch of the a.s.sociation had no money! The salary given was 1800 credits per month, as for additional benefits, such as year-end bonuses... There was none. The only thing that was good was probably only that food and a livable s.p.a.ce was included.
The average person would just find another job and not settle at this salary.
Now that someone was finally willing to apply, Xia Qi was certainly very happy, but the problem was that the youth in front of her was a human being... As far as she knows, there is probably no cub in the entire interstellar family who has human caretaker, no parents want to employ them.
It was not because of prejudice against the human race, but an objective cause.
You see, once the technology, the special weapon equipment is removed, human beings are very weak, which does not apply to almost all the other races except the human race.
Even in the face of young cubs of other races, it's already quite dangerous for humans. The Cub Raising a.s.sociation would therefore normally not hire a human caretaker.
"I am going to call the president and so I will trouble you to wait here for a little while." After considering for a moment, Xia Qi responded decisively, she was just an ordinary employee here and things like who is recruited was not for her to decided.
"Okey." Xie Tao nodded.
After she left, Xie Tao raised his hand and poked the golden ball of light still floating around him. It was invisible, when he walked here he had already confirmed it.
Xia Qi didn't let Xie Tao wait for long and soon she came back with an old man who's hair had already started to turn gray. He had the same antennas as Xia Qi on his head. This was the only thing that made one able to immediately identify them as being one of the Sevilla race.
Except the antennas, the appearance of the Sevilla people could be said to be very similar to humans, or more precisely, to the appearance of Orientals. But in terms of bodily functions and st.u.r.diness, the two races were miles apart.
"Xiao Qi told me that you want to come here to be a caretaker, is it true?" The old president looked at the human youth in front of them and then said, "The specific salary is the number written on the recruitment flyer. There are no other extra benefits."
The base of the Earth Federation was very far away from this planet so it was really rare for humans to come to Gaia Star. Most of the people who came to this planet were businessmen. However, since this young human came to work as caretaker, it was obviously not in line with this.
Xie Tao nodded and responded with a sigh: "It's enough with food and accommodations, I will work hard."
This sentence Xie Tao said was true, he had suddenly been rushed and had crossed over to this world, he therefore didn't have anything with him, except the clothes on his body. So as he was officially poor here, he couldn't be picky.
If the job hadn't included food and shelter, Xie Tao even felt that he probably would have needed to sleep on the streets today....
Xie Tao saying this sentence was equivalent to inform them of his current situation, and sure enough, both of them quickly understood the meaning of his words.
Knowing the situation of the youth, the old president did not ask anything more, only his name. Then, because of them urgently needing personnel he decided to take Xie Tao in.
After Xie Tao signed the contract, the young girl who had been watching quietly next to him showed a smile. "Then we will be colleagues in the future. You can call me Xiao Qi like the president. The staff quarter is the building to the left, I will take you to find a room to clean up and you can start living in it today."
"Okey. Thank you." Xie Tao slightly bent the corner of his lips upwards as he gave his sincere thanks.
The young human was very good looking and when he showed a light smile on the so far expressionless face, there was a kind of soft feeling that could reach people's hearts. Making his thanks seem especially sincere.
Before going to the staff quarters, Xia Qi and the old president lead the youth around to familiarize himself with his new work place and explained to him the usual work content. The place where the caretakers work every day, taking care of the cubs, was next to the staff quarters. It was the largest building in the middle and there was also a large courtyard in front of the house where the young cubs usually enjoy outdoor activities.
