The guardian's sword by Taking Cigarette novel Chapter 1830

The wound on Bob’s arm had basically healed, but he could not exercise it too much to avoid rupturing the wound that had not fully healed.

Upon hearing Rebbeca’s question, Bob immediately moved his arm to show Rebbeca and said with a chuckle, “Commander Ishac, my arm has pretty much recovered. It doesn’t affect my life. I can still do labor work! It’s just that I have only one arm left, and the factories and mines don’t want me…”

Bob’s expression darkened again at the end of his speech.

Rebbeca performed the amputation, and the surgery was successful with no after-effects.

However, he lost an arm after all. He could not work like regular people anymore. He had also approached the coal mine he used to work at to find a job, but they rejected him.

As a man, he had no job and depended on his wife and daughter, it was something no man could accept unless this man had no shame.

“Don’t worry. I will help you find a job. You need more rest…” Rebbeca said to Bob.

To reassure Bob and prevent him from thinking he was only comforting him, Rebbeca added, “We lack someone to manage the canteen warehouse at the city defense army’s main camp…”

“You could be the warehouse keeper. It’s not labor work. You can consider it a desk job. Of course, it doesn’t pay much-only 3,000 Dragon Dollars a month.”

Bob was thrilled once he heard the words “3,000 Dragon Dollars..”

After all, he used to work his butt off in the coal mine, only to be paid little more than 2,000 Dragon Dollars a month.

Managing a warehouse sounded like a much easier job than working in a coal mine, and the pay was much higher.

How could Bob not be happy with that?

However, Rebbeca suddenly remembered something and asked, “You can read, right? Can you do basic reading, writing, and arithmetic?”

Rebbeca was unsure whether Bob could do it. After all, there were many poor people in the slum who did not know a single word, and many had never been to school.

Hearing Rebbeca’s words, Bob immediately nodded repeatedly. “Yes, I can read and do arithmetic. I have no problem with them!”

“That’s good…” Rebbeca smiled and nodded.

Yvonne’s mother shed tears of gratitude as she said, “Commander Ishac, thank you. You’re a lifesaver for our family!”

“It’s nothing…” Rebbeca said quietly.

Looking at Rebbeca sitting on a stool eating dumplings, Yvonne’s mother suddenly blushed.
