As dawn approached, Wang Lei rushed to Bai Shuang's house to apologize. He couldn't afford to offend the Bai family; absolutely not. That was the best hospital in the entire base, with the most complete range of medicines and the most powerful facilities.
Who knows, at some point, I might need someone else to save my life.
He told Bai Shuang that they did this on the orders of their Battalion Commander Li, and that they did not know beforehand that the matter was related to the Bai family.
"Battalion Commander Li? Is his name Li Ming, the son of Army Commander Li?"
Has that Miss Yuwen already influenced him?
"Yes, you know him?"
I don't know him.
Even though he ordered you to do it, as a soldier, can't you distinguish right from wrong? What about the principles of a soldier?
Regardless of whether you are targeting us or not, what you are doing directly affects the image of soldiers in the eyes of survivors, will hinder survivors who should be entering the base, and may cause them to lose their chance to survive.
Yes, he is your boss, and disobeying orders will be detrimental to you.
But don't you consider that if his superiors want to punish him, they might punish you too, or you might be made scapegoats?
Wang Lei felt a chill run down his spine. Fortunately, he hadn't made a serious mistake and still had a chance to make amends. Otherwise, who knows what might have happened?
"Considering this is your first offense, we at the Bai family will see how you behave in the future."
The rest is up to Lu Yu and his grandfather.
Li Ming's mistake this time wasn't too serious, and he had an excuse to shirk responsibility, so there's not much we can do about it. Let's just keep an eye on him for now.
After Li Wenyuan and his group received their official ID cards from the base, they began their life there.
On the same day he received his ID card, Bai Jiu went to work at the hospital, taking over Bai Chang's position as head of the security department. Bai Jiu and Bai Jiu were also able to completely free themselves up and return to Bai Shuang's side.
Bai Di came over and pestered her, wanting to go back to Bai Shuang's side.
"Miss, you're being unfair! You're letting Bai Jiu and the others stay with you, but not me?"
"If you stay by my side, what will happen to Niu Niu?"
"If anyone wants to deal with me, they can just kidnap Niu Niu and control you."
"The child is not in good health, so you should take care of her first. When she gets older and healthier, you can hire a nanny if you want to work."
But you can only do other jobs; don't even think about staying by my side.
You must be out of your mind to hire a woman with a child to stay by your side.
The people around you are never just a job. You hire people to use them and help yourself, not to take in or help others as an afterthought.
The reason Bai Jiu and his companion, along with Lu Yu's two personal guards, stayed at Bai Shuang's house and received the best treatment was because they were there to protect Bai Shuang and her husband in case of danger.
It is a high-risk, high-income profession.
Therefore, the Bai family never hires bodyguards or other security personnel who bring their families along.
For important people, such as Bai Shuang's bodyguards, they are trained from childhood and have a service period, such as before the age of thirty.
Leaving early is not impossible, but a penalty fee will be charged. If your service term has expired, you can discuss whether to stay or leave with your employer.
Of course, they left because of a natural disaster, which was a special circumstance. Therefore, Bai Shuang not only did not charge them any penalty fees, but also gave each of them one million yuan out of consideration for their long-standing friendship.
However, if they get married and have children, they will have to step down. If both parties agree, they can be arranged to work other jobs, but they can no longer work as bodyguards.
Therefore, we should help Bai Di and his group out of consideration for our past relationship, but public and private matters should be kept separate, and we must never do anything that violates our principles.
After obtaining their ID cards, the Zuo family father and his two sons bought a two-bedroom apartment at the base, as they had a large number of points.
While hiring people to clean and renovate, they also rented a boat from the base and went out to sea with the main force to fight floods.
Bai Shuang arrived at Li Wenyuan's house, where they were diligently planting vegetables on their own planting platform.
Their planting area is much smaller than Bai Shuang's, about 20 square meters.
On extremely hot days, sunlight shines in through the glass dome above, so there's no need for additional lighting; it cools the room along with the surroundings.
The seeds were given to them by Bai Shuang, and the soil on the platform was also soaked in spiritual spring water by Bai Shuang beforehand.
If they can't eat all the vegetables they grow, they can plant some sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn, and other grain crops. Then Bai Shuang won't have to worry about this place anymore.
"Uncle-Master, I've already spoken to Vice Dean Li, and you can start work tomorrow."
Li Wenyuan: "Going to work tomorrow? I thought you wanted me to come here to retire."
"You retired at 60 before the disaster, and you're only in your 40s now, thinking you can retire? Dream on!"
Li Wenyuan's eyes darted around. "So you brought me here just to slack off?"
"I just want you to use your brain more and stretch your muscles, otherwise, you'll rust over time."
Bai Shuang spoke in a drawn-out voice.
Li Wenyuan glanced at him sideways, then turned his head away and ignored him.
Aunt Li watched them bickering with a smile and said to Li Wenyuan, "You're just being stubborn. Yesterday you said you wanted to get to work as soon as possible."
Li Wenyuan officially took office as the dean of the Bai family. With Vice Dean Li assisting him, Bai Shuang completely became a hands-off manager and didn't need to go there unless there were special circumstances.
Meanwhile, Bai's Pharmaceutical Factory quickly stockpiled its stock.
Now, whether it's the produce from Bai Shuang's own planting area or the medicinal fields at the base, everything is sold to Bai Shuang for soaking and processing.
The same applies to the medicines used in the military region, because Bai's medicines are the most effective.
From then on, Bai's Chinese medicine monopolized the base's pharmaceutical industry. No matter how jealous or envious others were, they couldn't win this over, and they dared not offend them.
They worry about being blacklisted, in case their family members get sick and the blacklist refuses to treat them, leaving them with nowhere to turn for help.
What, the base hospital? The medical skills there aren't as good as the Bai family's, nor do they have as many medicines or as advanced equipment. It's fine for common illnesses, but what if someone gets a rare or difficult case?
The workload of pharmaceutical manufacturing is too large for Bai Shuang to handle alone.
The factory site was rented from the original pharmaceutical factory in the base, and the original pharmaceutical equipment could also be used. However, this resulted in a large shortage of manpower.
The people at Bai's Hospital were all too similar, making it difficult to distinguish between them, so they had to recruit people specializing in traditional Chinese medicine from the base.
We need some general workers, but the number is limited. The security department needs people with strong skills and quick thinking.
The notice attracted the attention of the entire base as soon as it was posted. The salary and benefits of the Bai family employees were unparalleled in the base, and many people gave up their lucrative seafood fishing jobs to apply for the positions.
Putting everything else aside, the staff meals at Baijia Hospital are quite attractive; they are not only delicious but also filling.
Li Wenyuan and the hospital pharmacists had already completed the preliminary preparations, but Bai Shuang still went to the recruitment screening.
It wasn't to test their professional knowledge; that has already been tested before.
She came to have her face read, so we can't let in any irrelevant or ill-intentioned people. There are quite a few people here who hope for the downfall of the Bai family and who covet the Bai family's secret recipe.
