"Where is he? I donât see anyone. Who said that?"
This bear creature has star-level strength, which is considered quite formidable within the factory. Yet, despite his strong eyesight, he fails to notice any shadow of a visitor at the door, leaving him rather shocked.
Could it be that an expert beyond even his sight is coming?
"Uh, Iâm down here. Take a closer look."
The voice sounded once more, with a hint of frustration, as though the speaker was indeed stronger than the bear, yet remained unnoticed purely due to Earth peopleâs diminutive size.
"Oh, youâre here! Such a tiny creatureâwhat can you do? No, no, Iâm not hiring."
Only then does the bear-like creature shift his gaze to the ground, where a young Earth person stands like a little speck, seemingly unfit for work. He quickly gestures in refusal.
"My strength is star-level. I can surely lend a hand."
Suddenly, a huge metal piece before the black bear floats into the air, moved by brainwave power.
"Where should I place this?" Jia Yan uses brainwave power to control the massive metal flight, stunning the bear.
Then, as the bear stammers, Jia Yan places the item to the side.
"Alright, since youâre a star-level expert, Iâll hire you. But let me be clear, working here, your talent is underutilized and the pay isnât high."
"Itâs fine; Iâm just interested in experiencing the work environment. Working for a few days shouldnât be an issue, right?"
"Not at all. I could use someone to help with a particularly tricky task coming up. If youâre just working a few days, thatâs perfect. Even though the pay isnât high, itâs respectable enough for a star-level individualâitâs decent for quick cash."
After a brief discussion, the black bear and Jia Yan reach an agreement. This kind of arrangement is easy to settle; the bear simply accepted a challenging job and needed extra hands. Anticipating future work difficulties without assistance, he decided to find help.
Jia Yanâs offer to work for a few days fits the bearâs needs perfectly. If Jia were a long-term worker, it would have been troublesome, as heâs used to working solo.
"Great, then Iâll assist you. Tell me how this job works."
To Jia Yan, money wasnât the issueâhe was merely intrigued by observing the operational style of these off-Earth work factories.
Moreover, this small, single-person factory is just one of many small factories on this vast planet. While the craftsmanship is performed by a star-level expert capable of surpassing ordinary creatures in strength, compared to larger factories with thousands of workers, itâs on a significantly smaller scale.
Nonetheless, these small single-person factories are numerous on this planet.
"Alright, now help me bring that here. Agreement signed, I wonât back out, and I certainly wouldnât risk being remembered by a star-level expert."
The black bear tells Jia Yan this, aware that for a star-level expert collaborating with him now mostly means a casual gig, and neither of them are too concerned about the pay.
"Sure."
Jia Yan controls the massive metal, moving it towards the black bearâs direction.
Clack.
"Impressive."
As the black bear uses his brainwave power to precisely attach the metal to a gigantic machine, Jia Yan canât help but offer praise.
Although such precision is achievable by any expert, this highlights the significance of experts in the industrialization of Sect Universe, where each one can easily become a super precision master worker. As their strength grows, so does their craftsmanship capacity and scope, which explains why there are so many single-person factories amidst the mass production on this industrial planet, given that these people are all star-level and above experts.
Ping, ping, ping.
Under the operation of the machinery, metal rapidly disintegrates.
Then it undergoes magical chemical reactions, absorbing well-suited substances, turning them into suitable materials for a certain product.
"Our processing here only covers part of a product. Itâs merely in a prototype stage. Other factories take over afterward, sometimes requiring multiple factories for further processing before finally becoming an official product, which in this case, is merely a battleship material."
"So thatâs how it is."
Jia Yan listens, nods, and a look of amazement and contemplation appears in his eyes.
Having seen much of the technology and craftsmanship across various civilizations, he still finds things here on this commercial planet quite astonishing.
This is the real impact of a foundational industrial planet within an industrialized universe. Or rather, this is the true face of an industrial planet. Though Jia Yan had seen many industrial planets before, none were entirely industrialized or factory-based planets. But this one is differentâfactories are everywhere with nearly nothing else.
