BXBX NOVEL Chapter 318 Welcome To My Company
Good news and bad news?
Schneider and Sam looked at each other, unsure of how to respond.
Ming continued to dig for fine gold, saying, "I advise you to hear the good news first."
"Then the good news." Schneider and Sam said in unison.
Without stopping his actions, Ming turned his face and said, "The good news is, this mine still has a large reserve of fine gold ore. I want to start a company. Are you interested in joining?"
He had thought about this decision for a long time. At present, it\'s completely unrealistic to mine this pit alone. It would waste a lot of valuable time. Not making use of so many strong labour forces would also be a pity.
From his understanding, these people had been living very hard lives. If they mine here properly, even if they don\'t make a lot of money, their safety is definitely guaranteed. They have no reason to refuse.
In fact, Ming could entirely look for people from Zone 109, but, well, he thought of a rather uncomfortable problem. The people in Zone 109 were all friends and acquaintances, and it certainly wouldn\'t be easy to use them.
Sam and Schneider were different. If they joined, they would be company employees and could be used in any way. Besides, this could be considered the first step in the rise of the company. He understood the theory of running a company, but the practice was another matter.
So, Sam and Schneider should feel honored to be his first experimental subjects.
Actually, there was one more thing. Regardless of whether Schneider\'s idea of dying to save his brothers was an act or real, he admired the guy\'s courage.
"..."
Schneider and Sam were somewhat incredulous at first upon hearing this. We just met and you trust us enough to let us join?
It couldn\'t be because of our personal charisma, could it?
Could it be because we did a good job?
"I\'ll give you three seconds to consider."
Ming continued mining, he didn\'t want to waste any more words. They were all adults, and there was no need for him to blabber about weighing the pros and cons.
They weren\'t zombies. If they were zombies, he would guarantee to teach them step by step.
"We will join and serve you from now on." Schneider and Sam said at the same time.
Ming pried the fine gold ore in front of him and turned to them, "This is a legitimate company. I can guarantee that your wages will be reasonable, and your personal safety on the job will be ensured. However, anything that happens to you after leaving the company and its premises has nothing to do with me. Understand?"
"Under...understood..." Schneider and Sam nodded at the same time. Speaking in this manner indeed sounded like a legitimate company.
"Good that you understand, there\'s a dinner tonight. Hurry up and work, or do you want to work overtime?"
"Eh~"
"Overtime can only be considered as time off, there are no overtime payments."
"Eh~"
Schneider and Sam looked at each other and asked, "What about the bad news?"
"Is there worse news than no overtime pay for overtime work?"
Ming continued to dig for stones, "Get back to work, I\'m your boss here and you guys are chatting and slacking off. I\'m docking an hour\'s pay."
"..."
Schneider and Sam quickly left and returned to their own workstations.
Schneider said, "Sam, Mr. Gutmann, why is he different from other people? I don\'t know whether his thinking has evolved or regressed. The governor of our 1001, lives like a king, but this one seems to be pursuing a different kind of life?"
Sam frowned and then relaxed, "It seems pretty good this way. At least he treats us like people, not slaves. I think we should be grateful. However, the governor would protect his slaves, while our boss Mr. Gutmann seems to only protect people at work."
"Only protect those at work?" Schneider and Sam were puzzled at the same time.
The next instant they realized, what a capitalist is. The two looked at each other, shook their heads, and said, "At least we\'re not slaves."
"..."
The two fell into contemplation again, pondering the difference between a worker and a slave.
[Your froglets are walking on the prairie with everyone. Da Vinci is lying on the broad back of a rhino; Merlin is nestled in the mane of a lion; Foodie is riding on the flat head of a honey badger~ The leopard and the crocodile, both hang on the long horn of the rhino~ swinging back and forth~]
[Looking at the setting sun, Da Vinci felt poetic and told everyone to cherish the present life, to be as energetic as the noon sun, and not to linger like the setting sun as the crocodile and leopard~]
[Merlin thought Da Vinci\'s words were right. To ensure the sun attribute of the leopard, it decided to take on the part of the setting sun~]
[Foodie licked its lips, the leopard\'s meat should also be crispy on the outside and tender on the inside when roasted, ah~ bite into it and it\'s full of oil... Little White told Foodie that the leopard is tasty, but he definitely not delicious because it has a stink gland, a flavor you definitely wouldn\'t like~ Foodie patted Little White, it\'s okay, I love the stinky ones too~]
"..."
Ming received this group of guys researching eating and felt a little hungry. Looking at the system time, it was about time to start preparing dinner. He then returned to the ground, found a relatively hidden place, and summoned the chef to prepare dinner.
Other than his family, he wouldn\'t let a second person know about the chef. Watching the chef\'s continuous output of dishes, consuming spiritual energy, ming felt distressed.
No wonder the company rarely had group meals and team-building events in the past. It really does cost money. However, it\'s the first day of the company\'s establishment and opening, this money has to be spent. It\'s about cohesion after all~
[Merlin looked at the poisonous flowers and weeds in front of him, very happy. It could synthesize many different toxins, and give Ming new experiences again~ It looked at the leopard that was still hanging on the long horn of the rhino, listless and depressed. If you continue to play dead, I\'ll let you be the first one to try it~ The leopard immediately jumped off the rhino\'s horn and stretched its body... Merlin was happy, it seems you are ready~ The leopard looked at Merlin dumbfounded, you tricked me again~]
[Da Vinci and foodie comforted the leopard, saying it will get used to it, we all survived just like you, now we are immune to all poisons... Merlin turned its head and blinked~ Really~ Let me verify that~]
"These two ~"
Only then did Ming notice that the sun had already slid below the horizon and the night sky had begun to twinkle with bright stars. He held the chef\'s hand, "That\'s enough, you really don\'t care about money, do you~"
"Hehe~"
The chef had a look of regret on his face.
