Romanian Eagle

Near the North Sea Pier in Wilhelmshaven, there is a neighborhood called Sharik. There are mainly middle and low-level people living here. They rely on part-time labor, helping people do laundry and other jobs to support their livelihoods.

Bern's home is here.

"I am back."

Dragging exhausted body and mind, Berne returned to this poor and warm home.

"I'm home."

The voice of his wife Filna came from the kitchen.

Smelling the aroma of bacon in the potatoes, Bern walked into the kitchen in surprise and found that his wife was making bacon mashed potatoes and dried mushroom soup.

"Why do you eat so well today?"

Hearing her husband's question, her wife, Philna, said while busy: "It's mainly because you are working hard, and Qi Ke has a good score in the exam. How about coming to taste it?"

Zico is their second son, and his academic performance is very good. The teacher said that he has the hope of being admitted to the famous Heidelberg University.

Seeing the food his wife handed to him with a spoon, the bacon grains were clearly visible in the mashed potatoes, Berne ate it in one bite.

"what about the taste?"

Looking at his expecting wife, Bernie gave his rough hand a thumbs up. After being praised by her husband, Firna giggled, and even the wrinkles on her face due to the hard work smoothed out a lot.

"Mom, isn't dinner ready yet. I'm starving."

Eight-year-old daughter Evelyn appeared at the kitchen door complaining.

Bernie touched Evelyn's head and said with a smile. "Oh. Our little angel is hungry."

"I've been hungry for a long time. I smelled the aroma when I was playing outside with Rona."

The Rona Evelyn said was the child of Dort, the next-door neighbor, and the two liked to play together.

"It's time to eat."

Wife Philna added.

After getting the answer that my mother wants to have dinner,

Evelyn jumped out of the kitchen.

When Filna brought the food to the simple dining table made of a wooden board, the three children had already sat down with spoons in the small living room. Looking at today's sumptuous dinner, they swallowed involuntarily.

"Let's eat."

With the sound of Bern's meal, the three children who couldn't bear the aroma of the food for a long time immediately devoured it.

Especially the eldest son, Lodel, who was 14 years old when half the eldest son ate the poor old man. A portion on the plate that is comparable to that of Bern, and the rapid reduction is visible to the naked eye.

"Eat slowly."

Seeing that Lodel's mouth was full of food, his wife couldn't help persuading him.

"Uh-huh."

Lodel, who was speechless after eating, could only make this sound, which was a response to his mother.

The delicious dinner left everyone speechless, and they all bowed their heads and ate their own food until Loder put his spoon toward Firna's plate.

"Brother, you are so annoying."

"I see that you can't finish eating, I'm helping you."

Lodel, who was caught by his sister, forced his defense.

"I can't eat it, you can take it."

Seeing the eldest son who was still a little hungry, his wife put the rest of her food on Lodel's plate.

And Bernie, who was watching all this, thought of the news he just got today, and a trace of sadness could not be dissipated. The shipyard is really going to be closed, what should I do with my family's life?

Firna, who had lived together for many years, noticed the sad look on Berne's face, and immediately asked with concern. "What's the matter with you, is there something unhappy at work?"

"No, I'm just wondering if I need to find another part-time job. At present, I only rely on the shipyard job to make my family too poor."

Bernie's cover-up diverted his wife's attention.

"It's so hard to find part-time jobs now. I went to a career counseling agency, and there's always a long queue there. I heard that some people are waiting there all night long, so I'm afraid it's not easy."

His wife's words made Berne's face darken again.

The ship-related industry in Wilhelmshaven is developed, and most of the people in the city are doing this kind of work. Now almost all shipyards are facing inspections by the Allied countries, many workers have been fired, and there are unemployed people everywhere. Where can I find such a suitable part-time job for myself.

"Listen to Rona, their family is about to move out."

At this time, the words of daughter Evelyn interjected, which caught the attention of the two.

"The Dorts are moving out?"

Of course, Bern knows about Dort, its neighbor. Their family is somewhat similar to Bern, working in a small shipyard with several children. The only difference is that Dort was fired some time ago, and he borrowed food from himself some time ago.

"Yes. I heard from Rona, the family is moving to Romania. His father was recruited by a shipyard in Romania, and Rona and the others need to follow their parents to Romania."

As Evelyn spoke, she fell into the loss that her friend was about to leave. And her words made Berne feel that there is no way out. Perhaps this is also a way out, but of course it is also the last option.

After all, because of the war between the two countries before, the German public opinion made Romania a bit unbearable. And as a German, less than a last resort who wants to go to a country that is somewhat hostile to the Germans.

Yes, Romania is currently an accomplice of Britain and France in German public opinion. Although Eder has made many goodwill actions, for example, Romania's loan to Germany has been repaid in advance with food and other materials, and he has also donated a lot in Eder's name. The reparations for Romania in the Treaty of Versailles were also offset by a large hoard of military materials such as weapons and ammunition.

These are basically the benefits of the German government, and ordinary people think too much about how much they want to gain from it. After all, before the war, Romania's strength was not high, and in the eyes of the German people, it was a backcountry. After the war, Romania was also an accomplice to help the Allies win, and what kind of reputation can it have. The only thing that people remember is Romania's food, oil, and cars, and the royal family is also a member of the Hohenzollern family.

However, these acts of goodwill have a certain effect, at least Romania is currently the one with a better reputation among the Entente countries. In the case of the same salary, most people will choose the latter if they go to work in the UK, France, the US, or Romania. The second is the United States, Britain, and France in order.

But unfortunately, apart from the United States and Romania, Britain and France rarely recruit people in Germany. At present, the United States is more about acquiring technology and top talents. Unless ordinary workers actively immigrate, there is not much possibility of connecting with the United States.

And the recruitment of skilled workers is only done by Romania. After all, the newly occupied territory is too large and needs a lot of material comfort, all of which require factory production. Under the conscious guidance of the Romanian government, many factories now form groups to recruit people they need.

In terms of recruiting personnel, Romania currently sends many officials to help these companies in Germany, mainly by the chief of the bodyguard, Carust.
