"You should call me Boss Weasel. They've been calling me Boss since I was a kid."
Xia Yu corrected his wife.
In his hometown, it's customary for adults to call any boy "little boss" when they meet him.
It's probably because they have the hope that this child will grow up to be successful and become a boss!
Unfortunately, most of the children don't become bosses when they grow up, but Xia Yu's hopes came true. He actually founded a company and made it big and strong.
"I know that Dad is Mom's boss, and the child is the little boss of the family. So, our weasel boss, have you thought about what name to give the child?"
Liv asked.
"We don't even know if it's a boy or a girl yet!"
Xia Yu stared at a certain part of the fetus on the screen, but couldn't see anything.
"Won't Mom be in danger?"
Xia Yu replied.
Xia Yu continued.
As for your claim that he exploits family members, it's true that Germany has many holidays, but maternity leave is only 6 weeks before delivery, which is less than a month and a half. Before that, you still have to work.
For example, a few years ago, the security for the London Olympics was outsourced to the private military contractor G4S, but they messed things up by not having enough manpower at the crucial moment, resulting in a loss of £50 million.
Xia Yu comforted his wife.
Xia Yu had considered the profit model of Jihuo Defense's European branch. Initially, it was just a base for him in Europe, which could ensure the safety of him, his wife and children during their stay in Europe.
This is what happens when there are many refugees: either large-scale terrorist attacks or a surge in all kinds of security incidents.
Jihuo Defense doesn't take these kinds of security jobs, but you can always trust Huangyou for your business.
The composition will be a mix of local hires and Afica expatriates.
It's not yet the right month; we'll have to wait until next month to determine the gender. But he likes both boys and girls.
"The license has been approved, and I've also applied for your gun ownership permit."
"It's alright. You can take care of the branch office setup while you're in Germany. The recruitment and management of local employees will be handled by you for now."
The newlyweds, whom he had been waiting for, finally arrived. After ending his conversation with his wife, he told the news to all the people who remained behind.
There won't be many permanent staff; it'll basically be about the size of a platoon.
Xia Yu's words made Liv tense instantly.
He had always had a question in his mind: why didn't Xia Yu recruit German combat personnel?
"Weasel received, fly slowly!"
Liv said with some regret.
"Furthermore, the branch office is not entirely staffed with clerical personnel; I will station a certain number of armed personnel to guard the castle."
“It’s not so bad where I am. I heard from some of my classmates that they are taking the small arms license test. Once they get the license, they can buy a Taser for self-defense.”
Andrei's call came through the radio.
"It still has to be AceAce. Don't be fooled by their repeated defeats in the Middle East. Once they step back from the stage and recruit skilled individuals from refugees around the world, they can create big news. Europe is going to be in chaos again."
"Calling the boss, this is the glider. I've picked up the new recruit and we're starting our return journey."
Xia Yu immediately comforted his wife.
Having grown accustomed to freedom in Afica, Xia Yu even found the actions of the Magnesium Police to be too conservative.
"Apart from their German being a bit difficult to understand, the Austrians are fine."
"I've seen the police use Taser quite a lot, but it's not as effective as the 9mm."
"That's true. There's no rush now. It's just that I can't go to Niriliya with you guys because of my condition."
Germany does not recognize the right to possess firearms for self-defense; ordinary citizens can only buy guns for shooting sports and hunting, but PMC is not subject to these restrictions.
Liv talked about how the security situation in major German cities is gradually deteriorating, prompting more ordinary people to seek self-defense.
My wife is such a great worker, we can't let her go to waste even during her pregnancy. Luckily, the situation in Germany isn't as tough as in Afica.
Taser guns are toys; once they're powered on, they're no different than if they're not powered at all.
She was no longer in the country at that time, so she didn't feel it as deeply as her classmates.
Liv shook her head.
However, they can also take jobs with high commissions, especially those targeting terrorists who want to cause trouble.
Hans offered his comments.
"There's no other way. Having this is better than being empty-handed. The Paris attacks two years ago and the New Year's Eve incident in Coronado terrified everyone."
Special police units in various countries lack sufficient firepower, and mobilizing the military is a sensitive and cumbersome matter, so it is better to outsource it directly to PMC companies.
"There's no need to worry about that. The dangerous places are the big cities. Small towns are full of old people and aren't very valuable."
“Once the branch office is officially operational, the chances of us facing them again are not small.”
It's probably because the obesity rate in the Federal Armed Forces is too high!
Technical employees are too fat to fit into tanks or fighter jets, so they manage their weight quite well. Combat employees, on the other hand, have lower physical training requirements and consume far more calories than they burn each day, leading to a surge in obesity rates.
Hans's former supervisor is a case in point; he was working at KSK before he retired from the military!
As for the Austrian Army, it's hard to say about other units, but the Mountain Hunters are definitely not bad.
“In Afica, we don’t speak German either. The people at Rheinmetall told me that their French is quite good.”
This is also a screening criterion. All of Jihuo Defense's Chinese employees have passed the language barrier in a crash course; otherwise, they would not be able to cooperate in combat at all.
"Splash splash"
The sound of propellers came from afar, and looking up, I saw the company's Chinook.
With over a dozen people and their luggage, the Super Hornet was still a bit crowded, but more importantly, it was a chance to showcase the company's strength to the newcomers.
Apart from the infantry fighting vehicles, which are German-made, almost all of Jihuo Defense's other equipment comes from the Five Benevolent Men.
Some platforms have reasonable prices, but the price of a subsystem doubles, and there are no cheap options.
As they approached landing, the emotions of everyone in the cargo hold were somewhat complicated.
Leaving peaceful and stable Western Europe to work in Afica, a country plagued by war and disease, is simply a matter of necessity; they were offered too much.
Furthermore, the world will never lack brave souls willing to step out of their comfort zones and experience different lives.
Whether they are rich or not is another matter, but these guys have truly put into practice the idea that life and death are predestined.
"There's a mine down there."
Looking down through the porthole, Benjamin could see several large construction machines at work.
He was the KF-41 lynx tank commander recommended by Rheinmetall and approved by Xia Yu. He was previously stationed in Akram to participate in heavy equipment peacekeeping deployments and was awarded the gold Medal of Valor.
Proficient in operating/commanding Weasel A3, Weasel A5, Cougar, and KF-41 Lynx in combat.
He was two or three years older than Kuhn and served until last year before retiring. He had a longer service record and a higher rank in the Federal Armed Forces.
It's okay for technical employees to be older; what's important is having a senior resume and being proficient in their work.
After retiring from the military, he joined Rheinmetall's vehicle systems division, serving as the test vehicle commander for a new vehicle project.
In order to make the KF-41 lynx famous, Amin had to make a painful sacrifice.
However, Xia Yu's gunner and driver were of similar age to Lyman and Kohler, and he recommended them after confirming Benjamin as the tank commander.
They were not employees of Rheinmetall, but rather Lao Ben's former partners before his retirement, and both had the potential to become train commanders.
After a few years of experience, when the company expands again, he can be promoted to train commander first, just like Hans.
"Yes, the boss has invested in uranium mines and small oil fields, and soon a new, larger mine will be put into operation."
Andrei answered by opening the onboard communicator.
Their boss prefers uranium ore, which can yield unexplored boxes, to gold mines.
Xia Yu stated that he has other uses for developing uranium mines, and the associated oil and gas fields are merely an unexpected bonus. As for the gold mine, why bother with all that effort? Wouldn't it be better to just snatch enough gold dust directly from the target mine?
Small investment, big returns—these armed groups and extremist organizations are incredibly generous when it comes to looting gold coins.
“Our boss’s business is quite large, with museums, mines, and private military contracting as his main business.”
The bearded guy next to Benjamin said.
His name is Lucas. He is an Austrian and a senior sergeant in the 6th Juggernaut Brigade. He is the leader of Group 4, chosen by Xia Yu, and is responsible for commanding 8 combat employees.
His number of followers exceeded that of Sergei and Anton, second only to Christian.
He actually preferred to be a tank soldier rather than a mountain hunter, but the Leopard 2 tanks couldn't be driven up the mountains. Thanks to his excellent basic skills, he was assigned to the mountain troops.
However, Lucas's love for tanks remains undiminished. In addition to many modern main battle tanks, he is also very familiar with the old tanks from World War II.
Therefore, he was the only one among the newcomers who knew about the Afica War Museum and personally flew to Komlujah to experience it.
Back then, when he saw the helicopters of Jihuo Defense flying around, he thought how great it would be to join this company after he was discharged from the army. As a result, his dream came true. They were looking for mountain hunters, and he was good enough, so he was selected.
Xia Yu never expected that there would be employees who came from the tourists, but many things in the world are just like that, coincidences!
"Lucas, have you been to Guo's? Does the owner's museum have a gym?"
A burly woman wearing glasses... well, you could say she's older than her, she should be called Sister Bai, asked Old Lu.
Her figure clearly shows she enjoys fitness; the muscle definition complements her intellectual demeanor perfectly.
Ordinary people might feel pressured by this, but some people who are touched by it will rise to the challenge.
"The museum gym is only open to guests staying at the park, but I've seen the owner's trailer for the aircraft carrier museum, which says there's also a gym on board."
As a fan of the War Museum, Lucas naturally follows the official YouTube channel and watches almost every video.
The content includes various antique machine guns, as well as a large number of tanks and armored vehicles. This year, some old airplanes have been added.
But just last month, they released a teaser video for the aircraft carrier museum.
This is a trailer that has garnered over 10 million views across the internet. Xia Yu had it edited using footage that Hans filmed in Germany.
The results were absolutely phenomenal, successfully boosting the official account's followers from just over 900,000 to 1 million, turning it into a million-follower influencer account.
Friends who had his contact information called him one after another, all asking about the official operation time of the third phase of the project, since the video only ended with the sentence "to be continued!".
"They even have an aircraft carrier!"
Dorothea's voice was filled with shock; the German Navy didn't even have an aircraft carrier, yet this company did.
As a naval medic, her feelings at this moment were complicated.
"The aircraft carrier that the French sold to the Basilica only had one working steam catapult, and it was often out of service. It was not up to standard as a capital ship, but it's so cool as a museum!"
Lucas said excitedly.
He wasn't in the navy, and since Audrey had never owned an aircraft carrier, he wasn't obsessed with large ships.
Germany, which once had Zeppelin but only played a minor role throughout the entire process, seems to have a stronger attachment to the past.
"I'd really like to try the gym up there."
After Dorothea finished speaking, the Chinook landed on the mining area's helipad.
The cargo door at the rear opened, and the group of people who hadn't taken any luggage filed out and lined up in front of Xia Yu, who was wearing sunglasses.
Hans, who was behind him, was also wearing sunglasses, but a quick glance revealed that...
He took off his sunglasses and his eyes darted between Xia Yu and the only woman in the crowd.
No way, this can't be a coincidence!
This is certainly no coincidence. As a good boss in China and a good brother-in-law, it is only natural that he would do his duty to care about his brother-in-law's marriage when he has the ability.
Among the seven or eight candidates provided by Rheinmetall, Xia Yu directly selected the two with the strongest physiques.
After careful comparison, they chose Dorothea, who came from the Federation Navy.
First, he needed a field medic with experience working on medical helicopters, and the other person fit the bill perfectly.
Furthermore, besides being physically strong, the other person also has a bit of the temperament of his mother-in-law, Hannah. It's not that he has an Oedipus complex, but when men are looking for a partner, they tend to prefer women who have some of their motherly qualities.
Dorothea not only perfectly fits both criteria, but she also happens to be unmarried and childless. Well then, there's no other way but to have her join Focused Fire Defense!
From the slightly heavier breathing behind him, Xia Yu knew he had made the right choice.
He and Liv were guided by fate (lust at first sight), but many love-at-first-sight encounters are deliberate arrangements.
This doesn't even properly arrange things for the brother-in-law; as for whether Dorothea is willing or not...
The first millionaire to be born in the concentrated fire defense, a T-72 flying head master, a dual-role tank/infantry fighting vehicle commander, and a death weapon officer for armed helicopters/fixed-wing fighter jets...
With so many titles, if Xia Yu didn't have the system, his achievements in military vehicles would really be inferior to Hans'.
Without the protagonist's halo, Hans will most likely still be in Gineia, and Liv will still come to the country, but it's hard to say whether she will meet Xia Yu, who is deeply involved in the excavator industry.
So the system has changed the fate of too many people, and now it will also change Dorothea's predictable life.
"It's a pleasure to meet you all. I am your boss, Weasel. By joining Focused Fire Defense, you will have your own codenames, begin a brand new life, and accept unknown challenges..."
Xia Yu stepped forward and gave a welcoming speech to the crowd.
The long-time employees stood behind him, watching this familiar scene unfold.
They were recruited in the same way, following the boss into battle, and watching the company grow stronger day by day, they were deeply moved.
Perhaps this is the human touch that only small companies possess!
