Chapter 9 Positions (recommendation votes)

Long Yuehong had difficulty understanding Shang Jianyao’s answer, so he was too lazy to understand.

The two chatted casually, went to the “material supply market” together, and waited until the “staff canteen” opened. They each spent 8 contribution points and ordered a boiled egg, two mixed-grain steamed buns and a plate of sauerkraut. .

After breakfast, Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong took their lunch boxes and entered the “Activity Center”, sat in the corner of the hall, and waited for the distribution results.

At this time, the “Activity Center” was empty. Only the employees working here, under the watchful eyes of Chen Xianyu Old Man Chen, were busy wiping, cleaning, and fiddling.

The Elderly who are here to exercise and chat in the morning are already not in. They either send the younger generation to school or go directly to their jobs.

——The company stipulates that people who are over 60 years old can be transferred to more relaxed positions, or their workload can be halved. Only when they are 75 years old can they really not need to work. Level of subsidy.

However, there are not many retired employees who can come to the “Activity Center” at any time after they have reached the age of 75, because the previous generations of genetic improvement did not popularize, in the environment of lack of materials and insufficient nutrition. Few people can live to be 75 years old.

Long Yuehong took a silent breath, having nothing to say, saying:

“I saw the daughter of a colleague of my mom yesterday.

“She just 18 years old, working in a broadcasting station under the’Ministry of Entertainment’, a little over 1.7 metres old, and looking very good.

“You said, is it possible that she likes me? Hey, I was only 1.75 meters long after the genetic modification, and he looks average. The grades in each subject can only be said to be medium. No department has booked me…”

Shang Jianyao’s right eyebrow moved slightly:

“What is her name?”

“Feng Yunying, hehe, she doesn’t know Houyi, they are not the same Group.” Long Yuehong thought that Shang Jianyao wanted to ask about Hou Yi, after all, many employees of the company are loyal listeners of this announcer.

Shang Jianyao was not disappointed, and continued to ask:

“Which floor and which district do I live in? What is the house number?”

“What do you ask these for? “Long Yuehong was surprised and suspicious.

Shang Jianyao glanced at him:

“Go to her and ask if you might like you.”

“…” Long Yuehong Inexperienced, I know that this will mess things up, “haha, don’t crack a joke.”

He didn’t dare to continue this topic:

“Shang Jianyao, Which department do you want to join?”

“The Ministry of Safety.” Shang Jianyao replied without the slightest hesitation.

Long Yuehong’s voice is almost beyond control:

“Are you crazy?

“This is dangerous! Don’t think that having a meal supplement is a good thing! haha, you are cracking a joke again. “

The “Security Department” is the least secure of all departments in the company. The annual employee mortality rate is several times that of other departments combined.

This is because they are responsible Many foreign operations, including but not limited to escorting large quantities of supplies through the wilderness, fighting with people in the invading sphere of influence or the monster group migrating here, guarding the outposts outside the underground building, going deep into the wilderness to find the relics of the old world, and protecting the scientific research team. Corresponding plans.

As a result, employees of the “Ministry of Security” often have to face pollution, disease, monsters, unintentional people, and bullet rain. It is inevitable for someone to be injured, contracted, deformed, and even killed.

When Long Yuehong was frightened by Shang Jianyao’s answer, Meng Xia and others entered the activity center one after another and sat down in different areas according to their familiarity.

Yang Zhenyuan and Shang Jianyao, Long Yuehong has a very good relationship. He lives on the same floor and at the same time was admitted to the university and entered the same major. Therefore, after a clean sweep, he walked directly to the two.

“Hey, why are you so weak? Did not eat breakfast? “Long Yuehong watched Yang Zhenyuan come over, and asked with concern.

Yang Zhenyuan’s face blushed:

“I have eaten.”

“It’s just a little tired.”

“Why are you tired?” Long Yuehong looked puzzled.

Yang Zhenyuan didn’t know how to explain, he looked towards Shang Jianyao and sighed:

“It turns out that getting married is such a tiring thing.

“However, it’s still very good. You have to find someone as soon as possible. “

As he talked, he unconsciously smiled.

Long Yuehong felt that he understood, so he didn’t ask any more, and continued on the topic:

“Yang Zhenyuan, Shang Jianyao just cracking a joke said he wanted to go to the Ministry of Security! “

Yang Zhenyuan seriously thought about it:

“If I can restrict the back office, I would also like to go, the treatment is really good. “

The salary of the employees of the “Security Department” is the same as that of other departments. They are all in accordance with the company’s regulations, but because they need high-intensity training, every day all can eat meat-training day, On duty days, meals are served in the exclusive cafeteria of the “Security Department”. The price is cheap and the portion is sufficient. Meal supplements are usually provided.

This has a fatal appeal to many employees of the company.

“Is this nonsense? If it is really restricted to the back office, everyone wants to go, er, except for the management and those who like to do research. “Long Yuehong disdainfully said, “It’s a pity, the internal and external posts of the’Ministry of Security’ come in rotation, unless you can enter the Big Boss exclusive guard, the management team directly under the action cluster, and the important project defense cluster. “

Shang Jianyao, who has not spoken all the time, suddenly opened the mouth and said:

“I want to be on duty. “

“…” Long Yuehong stretched out his hand and shook in front of Shang Jianyao, “You really have a problem with your brain?” How dangerous is outside, don’t you know? “

The “Security Department” has a large number of employees, and everyone knows a few more or less, knows what the current situation is on the earth, and knows that there is still more chaos than order outside.

In comparison, a company that is peaceful, orderly, and can guarantee the supply of basic materials can be called paradise.

Because of this, even if the Ministry of Security has corresponding subsidies for field work, And they can bring back earth items that don’t need to be handed in and don’t need to be destroyed. Not many people want to do it from the bottom of their hearts.

In order to encourage everyone to join the “Security Department”, the board of directors is very generous in promoting the corresponding employees Many people in ordinary positions may only reach D3 in their entire lives and cannot become senior employees. The staff of the “security department” may be able to reach D4 in one year or even six months. At the same time, they will be discharged from the “security department” and transferred to normal For the posts, all of them are mentioned at Level 1.

Yang Zhenyuan can’t understand Shang Jianyao’s thoughts, but he did not refute, but points out:

“The employees of the’Safety Department’ are basically all Choose among married and child-bearing people, and rarely find talented or unmarried people. “

“Yes, yes.” “Long Yuehong nodded with a smile.

He looked at Shang Jianyao and said:

“Why do you want to be on duty?” “

“To save all mankind.” “Shang Jianyao has no change in expression.

“cough cough cough.” “Long Yuehong and Yang Zhenyuan were choked by their own saliva at the same time.

At this moment, two people in black clothes came in from the outside and handed a sealed paper bag to the “Activity Center.” Director Chen Xianyu Old Man Chen.

Long Yuehong, Yang Zhenyuan, Meng Xia and others stood up at the same time and held their breath.

The paper bag contained this distribution The result.

Unlike the unified marriage that requires publicity, the distribution result involves confidentiality clauses, so it is told to the corresponding person in the form of a letter, and no one else knows it during the whole process.

Confirm that the paper bag is not damaged. After the signatures were handed over, the two employees who belonged to the “Board of Directors” retreated to the side of Chen Xianyu to supervise the subsequent distribution process.

“So fast, it seems that we are the first I don’t know what position it is…” Long Yuehong couldn’t help speaking when he was nervous.

Shang Jianyao glanced at him and said:

“First assume that you are in’ The Ministry of Security’, in this way, no matter what the final result is, it will not be worse. “

“It makes sense! “Long Yuehong had no other way anyway, so he simply followed Shang Jianyao’s suggestion.

After showing the paper bag to everyone, Old Man Chen broke the seal and took out a stack of letters. .

Then, he read the name on the envelope:

“Zhong Xiaomin. “

A girl went up, took the envelope, walked quickly to the side to open the letter.

“Yang Zhenyuan. “

……

“Meng Xia. “

…

“Long Yuehong. “

……

“Shang Jianyao. “

……

One by one, the names were pronounced, and one person walked up and took the envelope that determined his own destiny.

None of them avoided , Opened the envelope directly at the “Activity Center” and pulled out the letter paper inside.

Long Yuehong stood not far from Chen Xianyu, unfolding the paper with his hands slightly shaking:

“Long Yuehong, electronic card number 02511013768:

“Please report to Room 14 on Floor 647 before 12 noon.”

Floor 647…Long Yuehong’s mind buzzed With a sound, the letter paper in his hand floated to the ground.

He quickly picked it up again and read it several times, hoping that he had made a mistake just now.

Unfortunately, not at all.

“It’s over, it’s over…” He muttered to himself, his face gray.

This underground building has a total of 650 floors, and the 5 floors closest to the ground belong to the “Ministry of Security.”

Therefore, to report to the 647 floor means joining the “Ministry of Security.”

Pop, Shang Jianyao patted Long Yuehong on the shoulder.

Long Yuehong turned slowly, his eyes dull:

“It’s over, it’s over…”

Shang Jianyao said with a bright smile:

“I have been assigned to the’Ministry of Security’.”

“Huh?” Long Yuehong woke up from his nightmare and took the letter from the other party.

He glanced quickly and saw the above content clearly:

“Shang Jianyao, electronic card number 02509083626:

“Please be at 12 noon Before, report to Room 14 on the 647th floor. “

“Are we in one place?” “Long Yuehong calmed down a little bit.

“It looks like. “Shang Jianyao responded with a smile.

“Why are we so bad luck?” “Long Yuehong is no longer so disappointed and depressed when he sees someone as his company.

Shang Jianyao tilts his head slightly:

“I applied for it myself.” “

“…”Long Yuehong speechless.

At this time, Meng Xia, Yang Zhenyuan, Zhong Xiaomin and others all saw their distribution results, or excited, or happy, or Depressed, or sad, but not as intense as Long Yuehong’s reaction.

“Shang Jianyao, where have you been assigned? I went to the 36th floor research institute. “Yang Zhenyuan took the letter paper and moved closer.

Shang Jianyao replied with a smile on his face:

“Ministry of Security. “

In a flash, the lobby of the “Activity Center” became extremely quiet. Those who were sad and depressed were surprised at first, and then they felt that the results of their distribution did not seem so bad.

Upon seeing this, Long Yuehong didn’t want to stay in this place, so he grabbed Shang Jianyao and said in a low voice:

“Go report, hey, you can only report first. “

This is the result of inability to resist, unless you want to be banished by the company.

Even if there are some channels that can clear the relationship, you have to report first, and then try to transfer.

However, people with similar relationships have already taken the “predetermined” route.

Shang Jianyao waved to Yang Zhenyuan, took his lunch box, and walked to Area C with Long Yuehong On the other side.

There is an elevator leading to the top 5-Layer.

Long Yuehong followed Shang Jianyao in silence for a while, suddenly pursed his lower lip, and whispered opened the mouth and said:

“At least, I can see the real sky…”
