Volume 1_Chapter 143: The Diversity of Superpowers



"Boss Su."

Su Tao wanted to hear something from his tone, but unfortunately, Gu Mingchi hid it very well, and said these three words very calmly.

"Good evening, Boss Gu, what can I do for you?"

Gu Mingchi was silent for two seconds, then suddenly said inexplicably:

"Be careful of any fog or mist around Panliu Mountain lately. If you find any, light a fire to break it."

Just as he was about to hang up, Su Tao seemed to have sensed something and blurted out:

"Hold on! Boss Gu, are you reminding me that Tan Yong has a related psychic? I don't quite understand what you mean by tipping me off. On the one hand, you're offending Tan Yong, and on the other hand, you're not on the same side with me. What are you thinking?"

The only answer she got was the beep of a hang-up call.

Su Tao was completely speechless. She stared at the communicator and wished she could go inside and pull Gu Mingchi out to ask him questions.

However, Su Tao still listened to his advice. The next morning, she told Qi Yunlan to pay attention to the fog and mist, and if she found any, she should call Fire Snake and ask him to set fire.

Fire Snake received the notice and patted his chest with his intact right hand to assure:

"No matter what smoke or mist it is, it will tremble when it encounters my fire."

Then he proudly showed Su Tao his skills. In an instant, two white flames with a bluish tint coiled between his hands, like two white snakes spitting out tongues.

Su Tao instantly felt that the air around her was burning, and it was so hot that she quickly took a big step back.

Lei Xing slapped the back of Fire Snake's head:

"Put it away, didn't you see that Boss Su got burned? Stop standing here and wait for orders."

After driving away the fire snake, he said to Su Tao:

"Qu Jingwen called me again at six this morning, and I pretended to agree. I also heard that Gu Mingchi evacuated the old station's own people overnight. He ordered the killing of those who refused to leave. The smell of blood attracted a small wave of zombies, which kept Tan Yong and his men awake all night."

Su Tao shuddered, so Gu Mingchi completely broke with the old station.

But I don't stand with her, what do you want to do?

Lei Xing continued, "Tan Yong was almost mad. He originally thought that those who were unwilling to leave could be taken into his pocket, but who knew that Gu Mingchi was so cruel that he would rather kill him than leave him."

Su Tao asked: "I remember that many of these people are underage, right?"

Lei Xing nodded. "Yes, they are all orphans that Gu Mingchi picked up from various places. Half of them are underage. Those who are unwilling to leave are probably brainwashed by Tan Yong."

Su Tao fell silent, and said after a while:

"As long as Gu Mingchi doesn't stand against us, let him be moderate. Captain Lei, I'll have to trouble you to learn more about the superpowers over there and see which superpowers we need to guard against."

Lei Xing made an OK gesture and said:

"I don't know all of them, but I've dealt with a few of them, so I'll give you a rough idea. It sounds mysterious, but there are solutions."

"For example, Tan Yong has a lover, who is also his favorite and most respected woman. Her ability is called 'Euphemism', which belongs to the spiritual system. She has a beautiful voice, and her beautiful singing can attract people to her, make them lose themselves, and worship her as a god. To put it simply, she is the leader of a cult."

"Just find something to plug your ears with when the time comes."

"There's another person with a special ability called 'Fiery Sun'. This person can concentrate sunlight during the day to form a high-damage beam, like a laser, capable of piercing most objects. It's very aggressive, but don't be afraid of this person. I have a brother on my team with a special ability called 'Reflection', which can reflect all attacks back in equal measure."

"besides."

Su Tao was stunned when she heard this. Is this the diversity of superpowers?

Lei Xing concluded his speech with a summary:

"From what I remember, these are the only practical psychics on the old site. The others are pretty useless. For example, they have a psychic that can make the opponent suddenly need to urinate or defecate. It's not very harmful, but it's extremely insulting."

"There's also a psychopathic person with special abilities called 'Alice'. Her head can grow and shrink. People say everyone looks like a rabbit to her. Her words and actions are absurd."

Su Tao sighed sincerely: "How magical."

Lei Xing said, "It's magical, but useless. Out of a thousand people, only ten can awaken their abilities. Eight out of ten have useless abilities. It's not wrong to say that a powerful person is only one in a thousand."

Su Tao realized: "No wonder I always come to you Baotu to cooperate. There are 14 of you, and each of you is one in a thousand. I am so lucky."

Lei Xing really liked her sweet words, and smiled with his eyes curved: "This blessing will surely last forever."

With the protection of the security department and Baotu and others, Su Tao felt 99% relieved.

I can finally free up my hands to deal with some of Taoyang's internal affairs.

First, the first batch of three-bedroom, two-living-room houses were rented out, all to families of five, consisting of four adults and one child.

In addition, the few rooms that were previously vacant were rented out again, which allowed Su Tao to earn 470,000 federal coins.

All this money was transferred into the public account, and together with the remaining money, there was already 850,000 in liquid funds in the public account.

This does not include the income from Panliu Mountain in the second half of July and the income from the plantation.

Su Tao looked at the balance in the account and felt extremely satisfied. Money is indeed something that can make people happy.

Immediately afterwards, Zhuang Wan came to her to discuss the recruitment of sales staff for the plantation.

"Qian Lin wants to hire two people, but I think that might not be enough. We need to find two more people to connect with Dongyang to pick up the vegetables. Otherwise, every time someone from Dongyang comes, Qian Lin will have to dig around and find someone to do the job. It's better to hire them all at once."

"Once we can buy a large quantity of seeds, we'll need someone to manage and maintain them. Also, we'll need someone to harvest and preserve the mature vegetables before they're sold. Given the current workload, we'll have to hire two more people."

Su Tao felt that she was very thoughtful and agreed immediately. After that, she asked:

"I'd like to establish our Human Resources and Administration departments soon. Are you interested? The Human Resources department will be responsible for recruitment, employee services, employee activities, and benefits. Administration will primarily be your current duties, responsible for tenant screening, tenant registration, tenant services, lease terminations and renewals, and cleaning and environmental management."

This is after listening to what Mr. Gu said. If you want to run a company or a region well, employees must perform their duties and subdivide the work for better management.

Zhuang Wan now has to do both human resources and administrative work by herself, as it's too much and too complicated.

Zhuang Wan said, "I'll choose the one you've spent the most time with."

Su Tao didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Then let's do human resources. You should find a suitable person to take over the administrative work recently. You will have to do the induction training for the new employees."

Zhuang Wan nodded. "It's not that hard. I'll spread the word about recruiting sales people later. Qian Lin is in a hurry to hire someone."

After the recruitment news was released, many tenants came directly to the office building to find Zhuang Wan.

Even people outside Taoyang called to inquire when they heard about the recruitment, and the enthusiasm was comparable to every time there was a rental.

Su Tao was a little surprised.

Zhuang Wan said as she looked at the resume:

"The number of businesses and factories closing down in Dongyang is increasing, and the number of unemployed people is skyrocketing. Furthermore, some people are saying that working in Taoyang is the only way to get a stable job. Some even say, quite exaggeratedly, that if businesses in Changjing go bankrupt, Taoyang won't be the next to go bankrupt."

Qian Rongrong raised her head and said weakly, "Although, I think so too."

Zhuang Wan couldn't help laughing: "You're right."

Su Tao asked: "How many factories and enterprises have closed down in Dongyang?"

Zhuang Wan said, "There are quite a few. Many factories and companies need to purchase goods or parts from other bases, but the world is in chaos right now, and many have stopped production. Even though Dongyang is relatively stable, companies have lost their supply and can't continue production. They have no choice but to close down."

"For example, garment factories in Dongyang buy some of their cotton, fabrics, and even tools from other bases. If they run out of cotton and fabric, it will be difficult for them to stay open. I heard that garment factories are in such a state of panic that their directors have even gone to Beijing to beg for cotton."

Su Tao explained to Zhuang Wan:

"From now on, Taoyang will give priority to its own tenants for internal positions."

Zhuang Wan: "That's for sure. Besides, our tenants are of high quality, so it's easier to recruit excellent candidates."

At this time, Qi Yunlan suddenly called and said:

"Boss, there's a guy outside claiming to be your brother. Please check if he's a scammer."

Then he sent a surveillance screenshot.

Su Tao took a look and saw that it was Su Zhenglan, her nominal second brother.

Su Tao said: "Ask him what he's here for. If it's nothing serious, just send him away."

Qi Yunlan thought that he was indeed Boss Su's brother, so she asked Meng Xiaobo to ask.

When Meng Xiaobo heard that it was the boss brother, he immediately turned into a lapdog and was about to go down and ask in a nice tone, but was stopped by Qi Yunlan:

"Just ask normally. From the tone of Boss Su, I can tell he doesn't like this guy very much."

Meng Xiaobo's expression changed immediately. He walked down with his muscular body and saw Su Zhenglan. He asked in a muffled voice:

"What do you want with our boss?"

Su Zhenglan was a little afraid of him, so he took two steps back, waved his hand and said, "I'm not looking for your boss, I'm looking for my sister Su Tao."

Meng Xiaobo looked at him suspiciously: "Are you stupid? She is our boss."

Su Zhenglan opened his mouth and let out an "ah":

"Is there a duplicate name? My sister is only eighteen years old this year. She can't be your boss's. She is a tenant here and should live with her boyfriend. Could you please call her for me?"
