As a capital-level city, Dawning City is also the first colonial city to be developed in the Norma World, what made Xiao Lin misunderstand before was that Dawning Academy was named after Dawning City, which simply means that there was Dawning City first, and then Dawning Academy was created.
This is different from the Adjudicator College, which was initially established by the Americans with the help of the British before the independence of the earth, while New Washington was a city that was only opened up after the independence of the Americans.
Dawning City has a fairly ancient history, almost witnessing more than 200 years of the history of the earthlings in the world of Norma, although the city's development has stalled due to the war with the orcs a hundred years ago, it is still one of the largest and most well-equipped cities in all the colonies.
Cities with a population of more than one million are naturally small on the planet, but in the New World, there are almost only a handful of cities with a population of one million, including local indigenous cities.
Like all colonial academies, the population of Dawning City is still dominated by local natives, as colonists from the distant starry sky, their population cannot be compared to the natives after all, in addition to the naturalized people who accept the rule and jurisdiction of Dawning City, there are also a large number of foreign merchants in the city.
Aurora is a coastal city with a large port, and many of the new world's commercial trade of various races will transit here.
An Fumin knows Shuguang City very deeply, he is a talkative person, and soon the topic shifted to himself, he claimed that he had worked hard in Shuguang City for nearly 50 years to achieve this year's achievements, and he was naturally quite proud of his words.
"Wouldn't it be a direct assignment after graduating from the academy?"
Xiao Lin suddenly asked with some curiosity, because An Fumin said that he had done a lot of things after graduation, adventurers, recorders, taverns, and even carried goods at the docks when he was at worst, in his self-deprecating words, this kind of work was simply a loss of face as a colonist.
But Xiao Lin felt that the people who had been trained by the academy for a few years would not just do this kind of thing.
"Hehe, you're too young."
An Fumin did not show contempt.
He sighed slightly: "The history of our colonists is to be divided into two parts, because of the perennial war in the first 100 years, each colonist is very precious, and there are too many places to use people.
What's more, in the state of war, it is not convenient to use locals for many sensitive positions, so everyone is directly forced to assign them after graduation. ” After a pause, he continued: "Since the Law of Resurrection came out and various treaties were signed, there have basically been very few wars.
Since then, people have gradually shifted their focus to development and making money......
It's true that the academy will still make allocations after graduation, but do you really think the work of more than 1,000 New World Coins a month is interesting?
Hehe, I came to the New World to enjoy, but how can I buy a house, buy a servant, and buy a woman without money?
So I'm going to make money, and I'm going to make a lot of money!
” An Fumin's voice was high, and he made no secret of his pursuit of money, in fact, Xiao Lin also understood that the vast majority of people chose to keep the people of the academy, isn't it just to pursue this?
People who are too morally clean are eliminated and driven back to Earth as early as the entrance test.
Earthlings are equivalent to nobles in the colony, and this is no exception in Dawning City, but even nobles are divided into down-and-out nobles and powerful nobles.
For more than two hundred years, the earthlings who have come to the New World one after another have also reached a considerable scale, but there are so many main positions, and someone has to become a down-and-out little nobleman after all.
It was at that time that some people in Dawning Academy began to refuse the jobs assigned by the academy and chose to find their own way, while others chose to leave the academy alone out of pure curiosity for adventure.
An Fumin belongs to this group of people who are quite successful, and coupled with the large amount of taxes paid every year, many people in the senior management of the college also have a good impression of him.
It can be seen with casual access to the academy and an extensive network of contacts and intelligence.
Xiao Lin still had relatively little contact with the colony, and after listening to it, he also expressed a certain amount of admiration, but saw An Fumin waving his hand. smiled: "There's nothing to envy, your future is bigger than mine, it's just that you're already a captain in your freshmanhood, and if you become a legion commander in the future, you may have the opportunity to command your own colony!"
” There are only six legions in total, and the number of officers is actually limited.
In the past, it didn't matter during the war, and after graduation, I often went directly to the military to report, but after the war, there was an embarrassing situation that there were more officers than soldiers, so the number of officers was constantly controlled almost year by year.
After all, it is an aristocratic class, and they can't be allowed to be ordinary soldiers like the local natives, Xiao Lin asked himself, he would never want to be replaced by himself, if he was reduced to the same treatment as the indigenous soldiers, it was really better to leave the army and find another way.
Thinking about it this way, Xiao Lin understood more the weight of the principal's personally signed appointment letter.
During the chat, the relationship between the two also improved a lot, and soon the space train arrived at the station, and the sand of time in the space-time passage gradually disappeared from the carriage.
Stepping out of the carriage door, the bright sun pours down, the fresh and humid air blows in the face, the ears are bursts of waves, the end point of the space train is close to the sea, looking at the past is the endless blue sea level, all kinds of cargo ships on the sea or come or go, the dock is crowded, very prosperous.
Xiao Lin took a few big breaths of air, there is not the slightest industrial pollution in the new world, the refreshing air makes the heart and lungs feel extremely comfortable, although the space of Dawning Academy is a simulation of the Norma world, but as an independent space, the place there is too small after all, and there will always be a little depressing feeling after staying for a long time.
The space site is relatively open around it, except for the heavily armed soldiers, there are almost no other idle people, and the space passage has always been a key place for each academy to protect, especially Xiao Lin noticed that a hundred meters away from the site, there is also a silver-white resurrection tower, but it is not very large.
An Fumin said with a smile: "There are two resurrection towers in Dawning City, this one was originally built, and later considering that the scale was too small, a larger one was built in other places, but this small resurrection tower was not demolished, and it was kept for backup." ” After getting off the bus, it is still the usual inspection, including whether there are prohibited items and passes, but An Fumin should be an old acquaintance here, and the inspection is only a symbolic procedure, and the fat man also took out a new world coin with a face value of 100 yuan and quietly stuffed it into the hand of the officer who looked like it, and the latter showed a smile that was not spoken, and then waved his hand and immediately let him go.
