"The companyâs relocation aligns with the needs of normal development, itâs legitimate and justified, or else would the Business Association have approved it? Besides, what are you worried about? After we move, maybe a new boss comes, and youâll have a better life, right?"
Ren Zhong: Another fresh lie; since the dismantling has already become a set fact, itâs naturally impossible for anyone to start a new company here. Even more sadly, both the sympathetic Ren Zhong and Ma Xiaoling who know the truth cannot expose him.
Starfire Resources moving will cause chaos, but the deep despair brought by the destined dismantling will instantly plunge the town into an apocalypse.
The weight of these two pieces of news is self-evident.
"Lastly, let me give you some good news. Before moving, my team needs to recruit two more members, one Blast Master and one Armored Soldier. As long as any of you can pass the third-level assessment in the next monthâs professional title examination, you will have a chance to become my new team member."
As Lin Wang spoke, he abruptly turned around, pointing at Ren Zhong, "Ren Zhong is my new team member. His third-level exoskeleton once was my equipment. Heâs currently only second-level, but I let him use the third-level equipment for free in advance. I also took him to the new mining area for excavation work. And quietly, Ren Zhong found a piece of mineral source stone in the new mining area. Do you know how much bonus he received?"
In an instant, countless eyes fell on Ren Zhong again; some peopleâs breathing gradually became rapid.
Ren Zhong had to cooperate by showing an embarrassed expression, scratching his head.
"Five hundred thousand!" Lin Wangâs voice suddenly rose by eight degrees, shouting.
"All this five hundred thousand, was Ren Zhongâs alone, I didnât take a single cent! How I, Lin Wang, treat my team members should be clear to you all. As long as you make the most of the upcoming time, hunt more desperately, and hone your skills more diligently, you too can become the next Ren Zhong! For the weak, the companyâs relocation might be a disaster, but for those truly capable, itâs an opportunity to soar!"
Lin Wangâs words certainly hit the mark.
There was no longer any fear or complaint in the crowd, but it was full of frenzy, excitement, and agitation.
The crowd cheered excitedly and dispersed.
Lin Wangâs simultaneous carrot-and-stick approach not only smoothly resolved the minor crisis for Starfire Resources but also effectively utilized the little remaining time.
Undoubtedly, before the official relocation, Starfire Townâs hunting output will surely hit a peak.
In direct proportion to that, there will also inevitably be a large number of casualties among these lower-class scavengers.
But who cares?
As long as the exploitation goes on, itâs all good.
Lin Wang was indeed a sharp tool in Yang Bingzhongâs hand, stripping the last layer of flesh from the bones of the scavengers at the bottom of Starfire Town.
This brightly shining knife doesnât easily draw blood, yet it can kill hundreds.
Over here, Ma Xiaolingâs lips were trembling with anger.
She opened her mouth as if to say something but eventually said nothing.
Lin Wang pretended he didnât see Ma Xiaolingâs demeanor, just patted Ren Zhong, "Learn well. Itâs never been just about brute strength that Iâve earned General Manager Yangâs favor. Alright, you take care of yourself, I need to report to Mr. Yang."
"Got it, Captain." Ren Zhong nodded dumbly, "I really learned a lot today."
...
Lin Wang hadnât walked much further when abruptly from outside came Ma Xiaolingâs angry reprimand, "Ren Zhong! You have to give me an explanation!"
Lin Wang not only didnât look back, he even quickened his pace.
Seeing Ma Xiaoling flying towards him from nowhere, Ren Zhong shuddered, not knowing what to say.
He felt quite speechless inside.
Why are you so angry?
Didnât you know a long time ago about Starfire Resourcesâ relocation?
What are you making a fuss about?
Meanwhile, other professional team members including Tang Shuying also sneaked away quickly.
Si Mawan quietly disappeared, presumably to generate income for Sun Miao at the Miracle Clinic.
Bei Lihui, on the other hand, just chuckled, didnât leave, just shrank in the corner, secretly gave Ren Zhong a nod, making an encouraging gesture.
Ma Xiaoling didnât intend to hide it from others, grabbed Ren Zhong by the collar, "Why were you silent just now? Youâre also a Scavenger, you should know what happens in the town without a recycling company! And, although youâve made a fortune, can others replicate that fortune? How can you let Lin Wang use you as an example to lure others to their doom? Those people are going to die!"
Ren Zhong: "Uh..."
