Chapter 17
Seeing that her goal was achieved, Ye Qing went upstairs. She was going to check on the man who was lying there doing nothing and was taking up resources.
Just as he reached the door, he heard a "clang" sound of something heavy falling to the ground in the room. Ye Qing, who had been trained by the system to be stingy in just a few days, was suddenly startled and secretly wondered if something in the room was broken.
Without a second thought, she pushed the door open. The man lying on the ground inside turned around, his face suddenly embarrassed. Ye Qing then noticed that the man's clothes were half-undressed, revealing his beautiful chest muscles through the unbuttoned collar. Coupled with the man's handsome face, she couldn't help but take a few more glances.
Zeng Yai's muscles suddenly tensed up, and he didn't even bother to get up. He quickly closed his clothes with both hands, and finally coughed lightly to remind the woman who was staring at him outside the door.
Ye Qing turned her head away, not feeling embarrassed at all. She walked in and asked, "Do you need my help?"
Zeng Yi was stunned for a moment, a little puzzled by her relaxed and generous attitude, but he still honestly rejected Ye Qing's kindness: "Thank you, but I can do it myself."
Seeing that he insisted, Ye Qing did not force him. With her fiery eyes, she could easily see how strong the man in front of her was. She was not worried at all that he would not be able to take care of himself without her help.
She walked over to the double sofa in the room and sat down, staring at Zeng Yi: "Well, fine, do it yourself!"
Zeng Yi choked. Seeing that she really wasn't helping at all, he didn't know how to react for a moment. After a long while, he finally managed to sit back on the bed. For some reason, this person always gave him the feeling that she was trying to trick him. After just a few words with her, he was already so angry.
Seeing the man sit down, Ye Qing said: "Do you know who saved you?"
Zeng Yi was stunned again, and then followed her answer: "You saved me, I am very grateful here, I can give you any reward you want."
Ye Qing raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and looked at the man opposite him jokingly: "You can give everything? What do you have left now?"
Zeng Yi was about to speak when he suddenly remembered that this was a new world and he was penniless. He swallowed the words that were about to roll on his Adam's apple. At the same time, Ye Qing gave people an increasingly strange feeling, as if she knew something.
Zeng Yi's cold, pale face flushed with shame. He didn't dare look directly into the eyes of the woman on the sofa, and stammered, "I... I feel like I have nothing to give you, except me..."
Myself?
This word instantly enlightened him. Thinking of the woman's strange look at the beginning, some yellow waste flashed in his mind. Could it be, could it be that she really wanted him?
That was unacceptable. He was a man of great stature, always aloof from worldly affairs and keeping himself clean. How could he fall into the hands of such a despicable person? But now he was covered in wounds, and he was afraid that he could not escape the clutches of this magical woman.
Zeng Yi lowered his head and took a deep breath, suppressing the gloom in his eyes. He decided to remain calm and wait for the right time to deal with her. When the time comes, he will definitely let her taste the humiliation.
However, Ye Qing only remembered the reminder given by the system that this person was useful, and she did not realize the man's evil intentions at all.
She carefully confirmed again: "Have you really thought it through?"
Zeng Yi forced a smile: "Yeah."
Ye Qing immediately stood up, took out a registration book and a pen from behind, and strode up to the man: "What's your name?"
Zeng Yi was confused, but still wrote his name according to Ye Qing's instructions.
The moment she signed her name, the system showed her his personal profile.
Compared with others, it is relatively concise, with only a few numbers, but it is enough for Ye Qing to understand this person.
So that's why. No wonder he was blocked outside the protective shield at the beginning, and no wonder the system couldn't provide him with relevant information even after being in here for so long.
It turned out that like her, he was not from this world, and the system mechanism could not find any clues, but it was different if his name was written on it, as it was like signing a contract.
This person is really talented. Fortunately, she was tricked into staying. Even if the shelter becomes bigger in the future, she doesn't have to worry about not being able to manage it.
Ye Qing hid the roster behind his back, smiling like a fox: "After signing this name, you are mine. You need to follow my instructions. If I tell you to go east, you can't go west. If I tell you to kill a chicken, you can't touch a dog."
"Saving you cost me a lot of crystal cores, so I won't ask you for more. From now on, you will be the manager of our shelter, responsible for all matters such as work arrangements, training, reception, and office work."
Zeng Yi frowned when he heard the first half, but the more he listened, the more puzzled he felt. Could it be that she was not what he thought?
Thinking of this, the words came out: "Is this all I need to do?"
Ye Qing looked at him, extremely puzzled: "What else do you want to do?"
Zeng Yi hesitated, feeling awkward for the first time. Fortunately, the other party didn't see his thoughts clearly. He put on a serious face and got to the point: "Nothing, just how many years of service are required and what are the wages and benefits?"
As soon as the topic of wages came up, Ye Qing felt that this man's face was not so handsome anymore. He originally wanted to exchange his kindness in saving someone for free labor, but it seemed that this was not going to work.
She thought for a moment and replied, "The service period is one year, so I'll give the shelter employees a salary of 20 crystal cores per day. I'll double that to you, 50 crystal cores, and that includes food and lodging!"
Then he explained considerately, "The price I offer is almost the highest among all the shelters. If you don't believe me, go ask around."
Zeng Yi shook his head: "Okay, I'll do it."
Ye Qing clapped his hands, feeling extremely happy, and was much more tolerant towards the man: "You are not fully recovered yet, I will allow you to rest for two more days before coming back to work. You can ask Damao to bring up the food, or you can go down by yourself."
"Da Mao, that's the kid who came to take care of you at noon."
After the man thanked him, Ye Qing went out and considerately closed the door.
Zeng Yi looked at the tightly closed door, his heart surging with emotion. Just now, he received information from this world and understood what Ye Qing had just done.
There was no denying that this shelter was by far the best place in the world, a ray of pure land amidst the devastation. And as for that girl, at such a young age, she possessed such a formidable shelter; her abilities were truly terrifying.
He originally wanted to go downstairs for a walk, but when he reached the door, he touched the two white furry ears on his head, paused, and went back into the room to study the strange tool called a telephone on the bedside table.
Ye Qing gained a lot today and had a good night's sleep.
She woke up early the next morning. There was a lot to do today as she needed to recruit employees and welcome residents.
As usual, she walked around the shelter and when she passed the rear area, she noticed a sight. Ye Qing looked up and met Zeng Yi's eyes behind the window.
Seeing the handsome guy's face early in the morning, Ye Qing was in a very happy mood: "Good morning, how is your recovery?"
Seeing the other person's concerned eyes, Zeng Yi was suddenly moved. This was the first time someone cared about him so much. He couldn't help but chuckle: "I'm almost well. Thank you for your concern."
Ye Qing waved his hand, looking cunning: "Alas, it's a boss's duty to care about his employees!"
Get well soon! If you get well soon, you can go to the fields and work for her!
After saying goodbye to Zeng Yi, Ye Qing returned to the main entrance of the shelter and happened to meet the three siblings of the Mao family and the little beggar who were coming down the stairs.
In just a few days, Sanmao's malnourished yellow hair began to turn black, the pale and thin faces of several people began to show color, and even the little beggar's thin cheeks grew a little flesh.
"Good morning, boss!" several people spoke together.
"Good morning, let's have breakfast together."
"Okay, boss."
The thing these four young employees like most after coming here is the three meals a day, especially with the boss.
Because the boss is friendly and generous, he always picks a lot of dishes every time we order, so that those who are reluctant to order more but don't want to waste food can eat their fill.
The five of them set up another table for breakfast, all of which were different dishes from yesterday. After the dishes were served, Ye Qing selected a few and placed them on a green tray beside them.
Sanmao was very careful and noticed immediately: "Boss, are you sending food to the guy upstairs? I'll go, enjoy your meal."
After saying that, he immediately picked up the tray and ran upstairs, not giving Ye Qing any time to react.
The employees are so active that Ye Qing doesn't have to worry about anything, so when recruiting employees, he should recruit pure and kind people like Sanmao.
After they finished their breakfast, some diners came down from upstairs. Ye Qing looked at the time. It was only 6:30. Why did they get up so early?
What should he do if he wants to sleep in from now on? Ye Qing had a strong urge to hand over his work.
"Good morning, boss."
"Good morning, Captain Zhou, Squad Leader. You got up so early today, why don't you take a rest?"
Zhou Xiaohua was rarely shy. "I packed up too late yesterday, and it was past dinner time when I came down to the restaurant. Xiaoya missed it so much that I came down early this morning to buy it."
Xiao Yihong: "Me too, my parents are still lying in bed and can't bear to get up, so they asked me to come down and buy it. Boss, this can be taken away, right?"
How could Ye Qing have a problem with money? She smiled faintly and said, "Of course, but you have to return the tableware after you finish your meal~"
The two captains were very grateful: "That's for sure!"
Several junior employees started their day's work at their posts. Ye Qing had nothing to do, so he called up the system interface.
The shelter had not been upgraded yet, so its area could not be expanded further, but that did not prevent her from adding floors. She added a fifth floor, and the rooms were arranged in the same way as on the fourth floor.
980 crystal cores were deducted, but it was a drop in the bucket compared to the huge number of more than 320,000.
When she wanted to add another floor, a message popped up: [Friendly reminder, the number of rooms has reached the upper limit. If you want to add more, please work hard to upgrade~]
After trying several times and still getting the same result, Ye Qing gave up decisively. The best plan now is to find a way to upgrade!
By the way, let's finish today's recruitment. You know, there are quite a lot of people signing up.
