Maybe it was really the candy that worked, and the two of them felt much better, at least they didn't shiver involuntarily anymore, but sat down more calmly to their destination.
Coming out of the subway station, they all felt like a world away, and the child couldn't describe the feeling in detail, but it was like walking around the gates of hell.
"It's almost there, the dock is over there, you see, a lot of people."
Steve said to Bucky, and to himself, that he was actually just superficially calm.
"Great, it's normal people, you look at their eyes."
Bucky pulled him forward for a while, and after seeing that these people were all flexible and smiling, he was finally relieved.
"It doesn't seem to be the same place as any other place, and that's where normal people should be."
Steve also breathed a sigh of relief, like a shipwrecked man seeing land.
"Let's go and find out if there is anyone in charge and see what we can do."
Bucky pulled him again, his previous fears behind him, and his desire for food came first.
Indeed, as Bucky had conjectured, it was a simple registration last night, and there is still a lot of follow-up work to be done today.
For example, some people were assigned to tractor factories or aircraft factories, which are not in New York, and they were only notified in advance last night to go back to prepare, and today there are work numbers and identity tags, some simple items, and settling-in allowances to be distributed.
If you want people to work hard for yourself, you must at least relieve other people's worries and let others settle down at home before you can go to work outside with peace of mind.
This large warehouse will be used to store grain and become a logistics supply depot over the years, and now there is money in the market, and food is difficult to buy, so Wilson Enterprises will provide them with goods.
The family members of the employees can register and purchase daily necessities here with the registration and certificate of the work number, and the money sent by Su Ming to the employees will also be returned to him.
If you are not an employee or their family, you will not be accepted, which seems unfair, but the food on your own farm is also limited, and after the calculation of gin, you can only maintain your own consumption every year.
However, this can also improve the sense of belonging and honor of employees, and feel fortunate and proud to be an employee of Wilson Enterprise.
Although these factories are not too far away, and you can take the train back on weekends, the transportation is inconvenient in this era, and there is always a feeling of going far away.
The warehouses on these docks were bought by Su Ming, and in the future they will be the places for shipping and transshipment, but now they are all empty and used as temporary office space.
The skinny size of his body makes Steve feel a little inferior, but Bucky is much more daring and outgoing.
He dragged Steve through the crowd, there were so many people in the place that he could even smell the heavy smell of sweat in winter, like a bunch of sea fish huddled together.
They swerved left and right through the gap and finally squeezed into the warehouse, where rows of people were handing out things, and the food they wanted was piled up in the back.
In the past few days when the workers have not left New York, of course, Su Ming is still in charge of food, and he is not short of this money, as long as the stock market is still falling, then his short money will increase dramatically every day.
"Wow, Steve, look over there, there's a mountain of food."
Bucky saw the same paper bag as yesterday at a glance, his eyes were full of sparkles, and he began to swallow.
Of course Steve saw it, but he was thinking about something else, it was so orderly that it didn't seem like there was anything he needed help with.
At this time, a bearded man beside them saw them, and although he looked murderous, the thick calluses on his palms indicated that he was only an honest worker, and that he had probably used to shovel coal or move goods.
"Huh?
Kids, what are you doing here?
” He crouched down, put his duffel bag on the ground, and spoke to the two men.
Steve cringed, he wasn't good at communicating with strangers, but it was Bucky who answered the strong man's question.
"Sir, we're here looking for work."
"Hahaha" The strong man smiled and stroked their heads, but Bucky broke free and glared at him, and the beard didn't mind, but found it funny: "The little guy came to look for a job last night, but unfortunately, Wilson Enterprises refused, and their boss didn't hire child labor." ” "Why?
We can do less, but we eat less, and we don't have to pay that much. ” Bucky said it was incomprehensible that there were child laborers all over New York, such as selling flowers in front of movie theaters, mopping floors in hotel loyas, wiping cars at intersections, and that if he and Steve were farm kids, they would have milked the family a few years ago.
Not to mention that the previous newspaper did not refuse their request to work.
Instead of answering them, the strong man asked another question: "You know this, it means that at least one of the parents is an employee of the winery, right?"
” "Yes, our father should be here too, but there are too many people to see it yet."
Bucky replied.
"That's it, because the company will give employees with children at home more money, called settling-in allowance, and the boss means that children need to grow up and learn knowledge, rather than doing heavy work at an inappropriate time."
The bearded man dragged his sailor bag forward, the line still shortening, and it was almost his turn.
Steve nodded thoughtfully, "It's a lot like what my dad told me, he told me to go to school." ” "Haha, I don't understand why, but I admire this approach, you know, I used to work in a factory, just stuffing that kind of huge stamping machine, and there were a few child laborers in the workshop at that time."
The beard moved forward again, touched his chin and recalled: "But they don't have enough strength, that work is not what they should do, many people are seriously ill, and one is unlucky, and it clicked at that time!"
” Both Steve and Bucky couldn't help but shrink their necks, of course they knew what the so-called clicks meant, they had heard that those huge machines often ate children, and if they were lucky, they were disabled, and if they were unlucky, they would die on the spot.
Su Ming doesn't want child labor, because what he needs is efficiency, everyone is a link in the workshop, and any link is a shortcoming.
Besides, this is too lacking in morality, there is no need to let children play with their lives in order to save a few dollars, it is better to give people with children at home a few more money to settle in, which can buy people's hearts more.

Although child labor was now the mainstream of society until it was banned by Roosevelt in 1938, Su Ming did not wade into this troubled water.
Bucky thought for a moment, he pulled off his hat and rubbed it in his hand, "We're not going to do that kind of work, it's just a part-time job these days, and we are literate, like helping to write a sign or something." ” "That's it, then I can't say it, after all, I'm also a newcomer, and you can ask the people who are receiving it now, they are old employees, you should know."
Barry nodded, he understood, although it was a pity, he had actually wanted to work directly for a long time.
"Thank you, sir."
Bucky thanked him and looked around to avoid being spotted by his father, but he soon saw a bespectacled young man and a chubby old man chatting at the back of the warehouse.
Judging by their clothing and grooming, they should be in charge.
"By the way, sir, are the two gentlemen over there in charge?"
The bearded man looked up, and immediately nodded and replied: "Yes, the one with glasses should be, at least yesterday I saw everyone listen to his arrangement." ” Bucky smiled and pulled Steve, "Thank you again, kind sir, let's try our luck." ” "Hehe, go ahead, even if it doesn't work, I should give you some food for the sake of you coming."
The strong man picked up his sailor bag again and continued to line up, knowing that the two children were actually hungry and afraid.
But who is not here?
