Chapter 528: Clearly Treated Like an Ancestor

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zeng Sanshui was shocked by their harsh training.

What if he accidentally dropped dozens of rice grains?

He shook his head. “Isn’t this enough to kill the soldiers?”

The soldier lowered his voice and said, “You won’t even have a chance to die from training. If you fall, someone will send you to the doctor immediately. You don’t have to come back after you have recovered.”

Zeng Sanshui couldn’t help but say, “Isn’t that good? You can go home and enjoy your warm bed with your wife and children.”

The soldier pursed his lips. “General, you don’t know about this, right? If we become soldiers, it’s a cradle-to-grave job in our Carefree Kingdom. We’ll get five taels of silver a month and all kinds of allowances during festive seasons. If we die on the battlefield, according to our military achievements, our families will have at least 50 taels of silver as compensation!”

“Of course, it’s even better if we don’t die. When we are old, we still have pension every month. Even if we don’t do anything, we will get a few taels of silver every month and there’s even a subsidy for seeing a doctor. It’s been a year since I saved my money in the bank and 1 have earned quite a bit of interest. My greatest dream is to buy a villa for my son beside the Great Empress residence or Qinghe University. Then my life will be considered perfect.”

Zeng Sanshui could not understand most of the phrases he used.

He could still barely understand a cradle-to-grave job. What the hell was pension, subsidy, bank, and villa?

After a long time, seeing that the soldier was only 16 or 17 years old, Zeng Sanshui was puzzled. “You have a son already?”

The soldier chuckled. “The Great Empress said that one has to have ambitions and hope in life. I don’t have one now, but I definitely will in the future.” He couldn’t help but show off to Zeng Sanshui. “I’ve saved up a lot of money now.”

Zeng Sanshui’s monthly salary of 50 taels of silver was obtained after risking his life with Emperor Ling Hui.

The monthly salary of a soldier in the Carefree Kingdom was five taels. This monthly salary was really a lot.

If he had been younger, he would probably have wanted to come to Carefree Kingdom to become a soldier.

It was safe, and they were given a lot of money. They ate well and slept well.

The more he thought about it, the more Zeng Sanshui felt upset.

How was this a soldier!

They were clearly treated like an ancestor.

Zeng Sanshui ate with mixed feelings. His stomach bulged and he burped a few times.

The fruits, milk, and snacks on the table had yet to be touched.

Zeng Sanshui thought that since he was a guest, it should be fine to have some leftovers.

He turned around and saw the soldier in charge of the dining hall walking to the table beside them. He said to Bai Xinshui and the others, “If you can’t finish it, do you want to pack it up?”

Bai Xinshui’s stomach could not eat anymore after eating a little.

On her table, there were all kinds of food, much more than what Zeng Sanshui had taken.

There were many that she especially liked, but she really couldn’t eat them.

Bai Xinshui immediately said, “Alright, wrap it up carefully for me.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the soldier took out a notebook, a plastic bag, and a scale. He weighed it carefully.

Zeng Sanshui suddenly had a bad feeling and hurriedly asked the soldier, “What are they doing? Why are they using those strange things to pack?”

The soldier said, “Didn’t I remind the general just now? If you can’t finish it, you will be punished to run. If you are packing it, we’ll charge you according to the market price.”

Zeng Sanshui was completely dumbfounded. “When did you say that?”

The soldier scratched his head. “Didn’t I say that?” He wasn’t sure if he had said it. Just as he was feeling a little guilty, he saw the words on the wall and immediately said excitedly, “General, didn’t you read the words posted on the wall? It’s shameful to waste food.. Charges will be incurred for packing leftovers!”
