A young man was the first to walk in, smiling and revealing his front teeth. His clothes were tattered, and he looked malnourished. Unfortunately, this was the norm in the apocalypse, and no one could change it.
Wei Lun asked, "Why do you want to join the construction team?"
"Because there's food, I can work, and I'm strong!" the young man said, showing off his muscles.
This young man is straightforward and sincere. Since he's the first one, let's give him some face and hire him. He barely passed.
Wei Lun smiled slightly and said, "Young man, you're hired. Come to the assembly point tomorrow!"
Upon hearing that he had been hired, the young man cheered excitedly, "Great! Thank you, boss!" He bowed repeatedly, then walked out gesturing wildly, saying as he went, "I got the job!"
Many people in the team were in better physical condition than this young man, and seeing that he had been hired boosted their confidence considerably.
"Second one, come in for the interview!" Qin Mutong called out to the outside of the tent.
Then a middle-aged man entered; he was clearly a very imposing figure, with many dead under his command.
"Tell me, why did you join the construction team?" Wei Lun asked in a mature tone.
"Because there are boxed meals, I have a wife and children to support at home," the man replied sincerely, looking at Wei Lun with expectant eyes, hoping to be hired.
He is a responsible man. Even in the apocalypse, he does not forget that he is the pillar of his family. It is obvious that he is a hard-working person, so Wei Lun hired him directly.
Many people came in intermittently afterward, including the elderly, orphans, and women. Wei Lun knew very well that Qin Jiayou would not have notified these people; they had obviously heard about the job openings from others and had come in to fill the positions.
However, Wei Lun wasn't that heartless. He would give some elderly people and children a free pack of biscuits, so everyone who came for the interview, whether they were hired or not, left happily.
Finally, they accepted a total of thirty people and stopped the interviews. Qin Jiayou was woken up by the noise of the interviews and regretted falling asleep when he saw that the acceptance process was complete.
"Boss, I'm so sorry, yesterday..." Qin Jiayou started to say, but Wei Lun stopped him from continuing.
Wei Lun instructed, "Go check if the BM slave chip has arrived. If it has, pick it up and also notify Zeng Guangtian to come over."
After Qin Jiayou nodded in confirmation, he left the tent to retrieve the BM enslavement chip.
Wei Lun, meanwhile, leaned comfortably back in his chair, enjoying Qin Mutong's massage skills.
The base had exploded, and everyone was discussing the interview.
Have you had an interview?
What kind of interview?
"You're so stupid! You missed an opportunity. People who pass the interview get two meals a day!"
"I passed the interview. There were over a thousand people at the entire base, but they only accepted thirty people in the end, and I'm one of them. What do you think?"
"Wow, now you'll have rice to eat. Leave me some scraps, and I'll give you money."
"Go away, get out of here! There's no food left for you!"
...
Various rumors circulated at the base, as if the biggest event of the day was the construction team interview.
This matter has reached the ears of Fu Yuanyu, the leader of the stronghold and a level-two enhanced individual, who is very angry.
Because no one had given prior notice, they were preparing to punish this mysterious young man and make him understand whose territory this was, daring to poach people right under their noses.
However, Fu Xixi stopped this, explained the reason to Fu Yuanyu, and offered five boxes of braised pork trotters rice as a bribe to the management of the outpost.
Because of this incident, everyone knew that Qin Jiayou had become involved with a wealthy man, a mysterious young man.
About an hour has passed.
Qin Jiayou arrived at the Qin family tent with the BM enslavement chip and Zeng Guangtian.
"Boss, I've brought the person over. This is the BM chip; you can bind it directly to the smart brain," Qin Jiayou reported.
Wei Lun held the tiny chip, finding it hard to believe that it was something capable of monitoring people's thoughts, and that anyone who tried to betray their master would be eliminated.
Following the principle of voluntariness, Wei Lun looked at Zeng Guangtian and asked, "Are you willing to have the BM chip installed?"
Zeng Guangtian: "Boss, Brother Qin just told me that I'm willing!"
Wei Lun directly bound all the chips to the AI, then handed Zeng Guangtian a BM slave chip, saying, "Wear this, and you're mine. I'll take care of your food, lodging, and all your living needs from now on."
Zeng Guangtian took the chip and pressed it hard against the back of his neck. Although it hurt a little, he recovered immediately after it was installed.
"Very good!" Wei Lun said, then took out an automatic rifle and two hundred rounds of ammunition from his backpack and handed them to Zeng Guangtian.
He then took out a bottle of pure iodine and continued, "These are your equipment. As for the pure iodine, you can keep it for now. All the people you recruit from now on will be under your management!"
"Mu Tong, give Zeng Guangtian a box of self-heating hot pot," Wei Lun instructed.
Qin Mutong took a self-heating hot pot from under the table and handed it to Zeng Guangtian.
When Zeng Guangtian saw the self-heating hot pot, his teeth chattered uncontrollably, and he exclaimed, "This, this, this is food from before the disaster!"
Wei Lun said with a smile, "Follow me, and you can eat as much of this stuff as you want!"
Zeng Guangtian knelt down and said, "Thank you, boss. From now on, my life is yours."
In fact, Zeng Guangtian was not afraid of death at all. A chip could not scare him at all. If Wei Lun did not have the strength he imagined and could provide him with food, he would fight back even if he died.
Wei Lun didn't eat either, so he had Qin Mutong make three boxes of self-heating hot pot, and Zeng Guangtian also made one box of self-heating hot pot.
The room was filled with a delicious aroma as the four of them happily enjoyed their self-heating hot pot.
Qin Mutong and Qin Jiayou were alright; after all, they had seen a lot of the world and were much more mature by following Wei Lun.
But Zeng Guangtian was different. He ate the hot pot that had just been heated up, even though it was too hot, and didn't even leave a single drop of soup behind. He felt that it was the most delicious taste in the world, and he didn't forget to lick his lips after finishing.
This was the first time Zeng Guangtian had eaten fresh beef hot pot since the disaster, and his eyes revealed a deep longing for the world before the disaster.
After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Wei Lun said, "Brother Qin, here's 350 crystal cores for you. Go and buy ten doses of Level 1 enhancement potion and a T-virus vaccine. After all, these can improve a person's physical condition and will be very useful in the future."
Turning his head, Wei Lun looked at Zeng Guangtian and said, "As for Brother Zeng, you are in charge of setting up a guard team. Go and see if there are any brothers like you. I can recruit them through special circumstances, but the premise is the same: they all need to wear the BM enslavement chip."
Qin Jiayou took the crystal core and said, "Boss, don't worry, I'll go right away!"
Zeng Guangtian exclaimed excitedly, "That's great! I was just worried the boss wouldn't hire anyone. I have a few close brothers here, all in top-notch physiques. I'll go tell them the good news right now!"
