In the early morning, everyone was working overtime, and countless guns needed to be scanned into the system.
There are too many customers during the day, so the guns have to be piled up at the back door of the supermarket. They are moved and scanned after the store closes early.
Ye Zhou started to feel dizzy after sweeping for two hours. Although this job required no technical skills and did not even seem tiring, if he did not get lazy and kept sweeping, his arms would soon feel like they were not his own.
Fortunately, we can take turns.
Ye Zhou was replaced and rested.
"Lemonade." Zou Ming handed over a cup of water with cut lemons and rock sugar.
Ye Zhou took it and said, "Thank you."
The water was the perfect temperature and he took a sip, the sweetness was just the right level for his liking.
Ye Zhou loves sweet things and would like to add sugar to all his dishes. Sweet and sour dishes are always his favorite.
But the strange thing is that he only likes sweet dishes and doesn't like hard candy or chocolate very much.
"Thank you for your hard work during the day." Ye Zhou put the cup aside and began to rub his wrist. "Chen Shu chatted with me this afternoon and said that you might be looking for someone?"
Zou Ming paused for a moment. He did not deny it, but asked, "She saw it?"
Ye Zhou was a little confused. What else? You don't like to talk to people. Ye Zhou was curious whether there was anyone around Zou Ming who he could confide in.
"Are you looking for someone who runs a supermarket like me?" Ye Zhou said, "I find it very strange. If I don't run a supermarket, why would the system pick me?"
Zou Ming explained: "The system selects people who are capable of conducting plane transactions, who are young, healthy, and have strong receptive abilities."
"In addition to supermarkets, I have met people who own department stores, gold and silver jewelry stores and hotels."
Ye Zhou was curious: "How are they? How are they doing?"
After all, they were his predecessors. It seemed that if they lived well, he would be able to live well too, which gave him encouragement and confidence.
Ye Zhou looked at Zou Ming expectantly.
Zou Ming: "The boss of the department store is still alive, but the other two are dead."
Ye Zhou: “…”
"Why?" Ye Zhou couldn't believe it.
People like him who opened a supermarket right after graduating from college are still alive, so how could those bosses who were able to open hotels and gold and silver jewelry stores die?
Zou Ming told Ye Zhou everything he knew.
It was hard to tell whether the two men had good or bad luck, as they landed in a peaceful era in their first dimension. One of them died in a fight with the natives, especially the one from the gold shop, who had made some money and even hired some employees.
But he was deceived by the natives, who invited him to their home even though several employees advised him not to go.
But he still believed that if he wanted to do business, he had to build good relationships with the locals. What's more, he was planning to hire people locally - system hiring was too expensive.
Of course, he died in the native's home.
The natives discovered that he was not some extraordinary person, but just an ordinary person, and an ordinary businessman.
The people in the village united together, killed him and took over his gold shop.
Employees hired by the system were dismissed on the spot after the death of their employer, and they returned to their original plane without receiving their wages.
The other one was a little more unfortunate. He survived the most difficult beginning and was doing very well in the plane world. Although the plane he was in was poorly developed, equivalent to the transition period between primitive society and slave society, he still had all the enjoyment he should have.
He also used the same method as Ye Zhou, packaging himself with identities such as gods, and gained a group of loyal believers.
Basically, as long as he doesn't do anything stupid, nothing will happen to him.
However, the tragedy is that he did not commit suicide himself, but died at the hands of hired personnel.
Instead of killing him personally, the employee tricked him into signing the transfer agreement and then hired two locals to carry him to the cliff and push him off.
After the system determined that the original store owner was dead, this employee inherited everything from him - including his identity in the original plane.
Ye Zhou shuddered after hearing this: "What do you mean by inheriting his identity in the original plane?"
Zou Ming: "After signing the transfer agreement, the latter will inherit everything from the former, including not only property but also identity."
Ye Zhou's eyes widened: "What if the original boss had a wife and children?"
Zou Ming said calmly: "Of course he will become the heir. If he doesn't want to get divorced, he can keep pretending as long as he wants to return to that plane."
"So he inherited not only the original boss's property, but also his ID card?" Ye Zhou looked confused. "Is this possible? What's wrong with the system? Is this the law of inheritance?"
Zou Ming: "The system doesn't care who the boss is. It should know that some employees will take advantage of loopholes, so it will provide benefits to encourage them to work well for it."
"If an employee is blinded by money and gets a store, he will need a plane where he can stay for a long time, preferably the plane of the original owner. In this plane, he has a legal identity, and may have a family and friends. He can get them without spending any effort."
"It's considered a reward from the system."
Ye Zhou felt a chill down his spine: "What reward? Reward him for stealing money and killing people?"
Zou Ming: "Reward him to continue working for the system."
Ye Zhou couldn't believe it: "Is this a common situation?"
Zou Ming shook his head slightly: "Not many actually. Most bosses know that they can't just sign an agreement casually, because the agreement will only take effect if the boss signs it voluntarily and autonomously."
Ye Zhou: "Then why did he sign it?"
Zou Ming: "There is no shortage of people in this world who can confuse right and wrong with just their mouths."
Zou Ming didn't know why the boss signed the contract. He was not in the office at the time. The employee who deceived him had a very honest face, was always hardworking, and was usually quiet. If you only looked at his appearance and performance, he seemed to be a steady and down-to-earth good guy.
"He couldn't survive in his original plane. That was his first time accepting employment. Maybe for him, becoming a plane businessman is better than being a mercenary." Zou Ming looked at Ye Zhou, "That's why I told you not to recruit people rashly before."
Ye Zhou patted his chest: "Fortunately you reminded me."
Zou Ming looked puzzled. He looked at Ye Zhou's raised mouth and asked, "Aren't you worried?"
Ye Zhou looked at Zou Ming: "Who are you worried about? You?"
"If you wanted to harm me, you would have done it long ago." Ye Zhou sat on a chair with his back against the wall, looking nonchalant. "Originally, I was already miserable because of the system. Since the last plane, everything I do has been risky."
“Whether it’s recruiting or hiring, which one is risk-free?”
"Although the system is not human..." Ye Zhou touched his chin, "but it is indeed not human either."
"There's not much I can do, just try to save my life."
Ye Zhou raised his head and smiled at Zou Ming: "Don't be so serious, I know you have no bad intentions."
Zou Ming asked back: "How can you be sure? What if I'm playing the long game to catch a big fish?"
He stared into Ye Zhou's eyes.
Ye Zhou shrugged: "Actually, I'm very good at judging people, don't disbelieve me."
Ye Zhou said with a little pride: "I think this is a talent. I can't really tell what's right and what's wrong with that person, but as long as I get to know him for a while, I can tell whether he can be a close friend."
When he was in school, Ye Zhou was very popular. He was handsome, and although his academic performance was average, he was not stupid.
Whether it's playing basketball, football or playing games, although he is not the best among his friends, he is still able to play them well.
There are many people who are willing to interact with him, but he can't play with everyone.
Perhaps it is because he has come into contact with so many people that he has learned to judge people.
Zou Ming's expression softened a little: "So what kind of person do you think I am?"
Ye Zhou: "You are the kind of... um..."
"A person with a strong will." Ye Zhou thought for a while and described, "To put it in a broader sense, he is not happy with things or sad with himself. You don't care much about things that others value. You have your goals, and no matter how many dangers there are, you can move forward unswervingly."
Ye Zhou looked at Zou Ming: "A bit like me."
Zou Ming pursed his lips: "Really?"
Ye Zhou: "But I'm not as serious as you."
Zou Ming frowned slightly: "I am serious?"
Ye Zhou remembered Zou Ming's forced smile and said quickly, "Not serious, not serious, quite friendly."
"By the way." Ye Zhou forced himself to change the subject, "How did you and Chen Shu know each other? I forgot to ask her before."
Zou Ming: "I was hired together with her."
"She's quite reliable." Zou Ming, "She's not after money. She had good conditions in her original plane. She just wants to practice her marksmanship."
"The purpose is simple."
Ye Zhou: "What about Zhou Yuanhe? He doesn't talk much usually. Sometimes he is right next to me but I don't even notice him."
Zou Ming thought about it and realized that maybe he had known Zhou Yuanhe for too long that he had forgotten why they met.
It took him a while to remember and said, "I knew him before."
It seemed that he didn't want to talk in depth, so Ye Zhou didn't ask any more questions.
Everyone has secrets that they don't want others to know, so why ask so carefully?
"I'll go over first." Ye Zhou drank the last sip of lemonade and continued to scan the code.
Zou Ming stood there and did not leave.
He raised his head slightly and saw Ye Zhou and Zhou Yuanhe greeting each other and passing by each other.
Zhou Yuanhe was fetching water next to Zou Ming. He bent over and did not look at Zou Ming's face. He asked softly, "Why don't you just tell him directly?"
Zou Ming's face was not good. He held the water cup tightly with his hand, and veins on the back of his hand bulged. He said in a cold voice: "Tell him what?"
"Tell him that he saved me when I was a child? He raised me?"
"And then he'll just snap into it and be the one who saves me?"
Zou Ming glanced at Zhou Yuanhe: "I didn't ask you to come here to make you talk too much."
Zhou Yuanhe stood up straight: "I haven't said anything yet, why are you so fierce?"
Zhou Yuanhe: "Then you just wait. When the bosses are plane-hopping, time will not pass. This means that as long as they don't return to their original plane, they will be immortal."
"Maybe when you meet him, he will actually be a centenarian."
"If it really takes a hundred years, will you wait?"
Zou Ming lowered his eyes, and the tone of his voice was no different from usual.
He said calmly, "Wait."
