"I never thought that I would get my hands on a mobile phone again." Someone took the mobile phone he bought and turned it on according to the instructions, feeling excited.
"Is this really a cell phone? It looks like a card, could it be fake?" Someone standing in front was a little hesitant. After all, 500 crystal cores is one month's rent.
"Are you going to buy it or not? If not, leave quickly. There are a lot of people behind you! Don't block the way!" The people behind him kept urging him. The man gritted his teeth and placed the order.
With a "clang", he quickly took out his cell phone from the exit. After squeezing out of the crowd, he touched the warm "new" cell phone in his hand tenderly, feeling a little painful.
"There's a forum up there? It shows over a thousand people online!"
"The games here are so high-definition! The feel is way better than any previous phone, isn't it?"
"There's a TV series I was following on there! That's great. I was interrupted halfway through last time, and now I can see the continuation."
"The instrumental music here is also very nice, but it's a pity that there is not enough music. How can we add more music?"
…
After Shi Jiu got up, almost everyone in the villa had a mobile phone. After all, everyone has some savings in their cards now.
Many people even went out of their way to exchange their remaining crystal cores for Sifang coins, while others saved them in case they needed the crystal cores in the future.
Shi Jiu was also worried about this problem after the membership card came out. What if they hid the crystal core and didn’t use it in the end?
Moreover, this world should be quite big. She has just been promoted to the villa and there are not many people in the area. How can she collect all the crystal cores?
After hearing her question, 001 shook the leaves and told her not to worry, everything will work out in the end, and everything is possible.
She stretched. Even though she was in the villa with a constant temperature, she felt a little chilly, so she put on an extra coat and went out.
After the upgrade, the villa could easily build dozens more apartments. As Shi Jiu slowly watched the building, which was originally called a hotel, change more and more, it also had a new name in the system: the main building.
Well, it feels like I’m dreaming back to my school days.
Shi Jiu first went to find Qin Lou, "Xiao Qin, who were the employees you mentioned yesterday? Tell me about it. I plan to hire a few more today. We have a few shops that need staff to look after them."
Qin Lou pushed the breakfast he had prepared in advance towards her and said, "I think the deputy leader of Ping An Base, Lin Ye, and his brother Lin Xi are pretty good."
Wang Yue just came out of the ranch. She got up early and found that there were a lot of new animals on the ranch. She could only collect the eggs. The others would take time, so she would go back in after a while.
When he heard that Shi Jiu was going to recruit employees, he quickly came over and said, "Boss! You are finally going to recruit employees!"
"Do you have any recommendations?" Shi Jiu took a bite of the salty and fragrant meat floss bread. The system's products are different. Full of meat floss and soft bread, one bite is satisfying.
"The girl we rescued earlier is enough. There are about ten people. The ranch is really too big, and now there are a lot of new animals. I think there are cows and sheep. If no more staff come, I really will be immersed in it all day."
Shi Jiu thought about it and felt that those girls before would also be fine. After all, 001 had woken up, and any abnormalities could be monitored at any time, so there was no need to worry about anything unexpected happening.
In fact, Shi Jiu was so confident in letting them touch the things in the villa because of the system.
After signing the employee agreement, they were completely forbidden from saying anything about the villa that could not be disclosed to the outside world. They were not allowed to do so in writing or by gestures. Everything was clearly written in the agreement.
At present, they all abide by this rule.
Ever since Wei Qu was assigned to be on duty at the apartment, he would occasionally be on duty at night. Now he had to recruit people to be on duty. How could such a big villa not have a guard team!
"I roughly know the candidate." After listening to their suggestions, Shi Jiu wiped the meat floss from the corner of his mouth and started to issue tasks now.
She restocked the store with seeds and baby animals, then posted long-term tasks on the task bar.
[Long-term mission: Contract farmland. Each half-acre of land is a unit. The fee is 50 crystal cores/month. Crystal cores are collected first. The agricultural products produced can be exchanged for Sifang coins or consumed by the user.]
[Long-term mission: Breeding. You can purchase cubs or fertilized eggs from relevant stores for hatching. Related animals can only be raised in farmland. Product handling is the same as above.]
[Long-term mission: Shop for rent, 600 crystal cores/month, remaining vacant shops: nine.]
As for recruitment... Shi Jiu suddenly had an idea and asked 001 to send out a recruitment text message, allowing those who are interested to edit their resume and upload their own video for a brief self-introduction, and then let 001 screen them later.
That’s right, the text messages in your mobile phone can not only send text messages, but also send videos. The same goes for contacts. Making phone calls is also a basic thing, and you can also make video calls and locate the other party’s location.
Although these functions were available before, this phone does not require a network at all. It is so light and thin that it weighs almost nothing and does not need to be charged, so it is not a burden to use at all.
As for the two people Qin Lou mentioned, she went to report to the system in person. The evaluation results were not low, both had four stars, and they were both good materials for being employees.
Shi Jiu directly sent them a recruitment invitation through the system. The two were in the room at this time, feeling the novelty in their hands. Unexpectedly, a light screen suddenly appeared in front of them and a strange voice sounded in their minds.
After a moment of panic, they happily clicked the confirm button. This little agreement was nothing. Working here was simply a blessing, and there was even a salary to be earned!
After Shi Jiu watered the flowers outside again, he came back and gathered the five employees he currently had.
Chief Steward: Qin Lou.
Egg collector: Wang Yue.
Person on duty: Wei Qu.
Two unknown occupations: forestry and linxi.
After being promoted to employees, Linye and Linxi also had staff dormitories. When they learned that they could live in the staff dormitories, they immediately decided to pack up and move into the dormitory when they returned. They had just moved in yesterday, so they could only stay for seven days before renting a house.
"The person in charge of you is Qin Lou, the chief steward. He's basically the one who plans your subsequent work. However, this time, a large number of people are involved, so I'll let him handle it."
Shi Jiu didn't elaborate. "Right now, the ranch is understaffed. There are two shops outside that need employees, but they can be merged. There's also the issue of night patrol duty."
"Wei Qu, is it okay for you to have a reversed day and night schedule?" Shi Jiu thought that if she was on duty, Wei Qu would be the only one in charge. She knew how hard the night shift was.
Wei Qu was still a little dazed when he was called, "It's okay, boss. My physical fitness has improved a lot since I became a superpower. As long as I get enough sleep, I should be fine."
"Then how about this, you and Lin Ye, one will be responsible for the night shift, and the other will be responsible for the day patrol. I will recruit enough people on both sides to make it easier for you. I will also train some helpers later, so you won't have to work so hard."
She also didn't want the others to become employees who signed agreements with the system. She just wanted them to be contract employees who simply took on tasks. Otherwise, it would be too confusing to manage too many people.
"As for Lin Xi, he can be in charge of the store." Shi Jiu looked at Lin Xi, who nodded nervously, indicating that he understood.
"Wang Yue, you..." Shi Jiu thought about it and thought that she should be quite skilled at her job now.
"Boss, I can handle both jobs, but I want to go in when the front desk is not so busy, so I definitely need help. I will teach the staff behind me how to get started quickly!"
Wang Yue hurriedly said that she just needed help. In fact, after working for so long, she sometimes felt happy. It would be even more perfect if the workload was not so heavy.
"Then I'll recruit someone to lead you later. There's no one else for now, so let Qin Lou arrange it for you later." Shi Jiu thought about it and there was nothing else to add, so he asked them all to go back.
"By the way, Lin Ye, wait a minute, I have something to ask you." Shi Jiu thought of the bag of dried meat.
She took it from Qin Lou. After opening the bag, the smell inside made her hold her breath as usual.
"Has the dried meat in your base always been like this?" After showing it to Lin Ye briefly, she asked curiously, always feeling that something was wrong.
Lin Ye couldn't help but frown when he smelled that smell. "The dried meat we had before was very normal. We encountered mutant animals when we were out collecting supplies, and we worked together to fight them off."
He lost himself in memories. "The base used to be very harmonious. The leader wasn't Roger, and I was just an ordinary psychic. Supplies weren't tight, and I could come and go freely. But then things inexplicably changed."
"Boss, you probably know what happened next. Researchers mysteriously disappeared, a lot of normal equipment was dismantled, and entering and leaving the base required high fees for supplies. Later, we had to hand over the mutant animals we received to Roger, saying they were to be processed by researchers outside. That's how this huge pile of jerky was created."
"We didn't want to eat it at first because it smelled wrong, but as the food got less and less, we had no choice but to eat this because it was the only thing we were always provided with. We endured the discomfort and ate it for a few days and it was fine. We didn't feel any harm to our bodies."
Shi Jiu had heard about Roger and the so-called outside researchers more than once.
"Do the researchers outside they mentioned really exist?" Shi Jiu's intuition told her that this was definitely not a simple matter.
"We haven't seen it. Maybe only Roger and his subordinates know about it. The psychics who followed me here don't know about it. The few who know the inside story are still waiting in the base with their food."
Lin Ye also got angry when talking about this. It was not until he was about to leave that he realized that those guys had hidden the supplies that had been stored intact before, and they also took a cut of the high supply entry and exit fees at the door.
These matters were not his responsibility before, and he thought that the supplies would eventually return to the public warehouse. It was no wonder that the base gradually became so dilapidated.
Roger actually wanted to go to the Longhua base to recruit people to continue working for him as workers looking for supplies.
It’s a good thing he disappeared!
Lin Ye's mentality changed greatly after he was freed. He used to think about becoming a senior executive at the base so that he could have power, food, and a happy life.
After actually doing it, he found that it was more comfortable to be an ordinary person. After settling most of the people in the base, he finally put his mind at ease and had a sweet dream last night.
After learning about these situations, Shi Jiu asked, why did the base leaders she met seem to be so bad?
The Longhua base has collapsed. I don’t know what the fierce competition for the position of leader is like over there. In recent days, many people have come here to settle down.
The upgrade of the villa still depends on manpower!
