Chapter IX Posts
Long Yuehong couldn't understand Shang Jianyao's answer, so she was too lazy to understand.
The two chatted casually and went to the "material supply market" together. When the "employee cafeteria" opened, they each spent 8 contribution points and ordered a boiled egg, two mixed grain steamed buns and a plate of pickled cabbage.
After using breakfast, Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong brought lunch boxes to the "activity center", sat in the corner of the hall, and waited for the distribution results to come out.
At this time, the "activity center" was empty, and only the employees working here, Yu Chen Xianyu and Old Man Chen, were busy wiping, cleaning and fiddling with them.
The old men who exercise and chat here in the early morning are no longer here. They may send their younger generation to school or go directly to their jobs.
——The company stipulates that those who are over 60 years old can be transferred to a more relaxed position or reduce their workload in half. Only when they are 75 years old can they really not have to work, and there are monthly subsidies based on their own employee level.
However, there are not many retired employees who are over 75 years old and can come to the "activity center" at any time, because the previous generations without popularizing genetic improvement, few people can live to the age of 75 in an environment of scarcity of materials and insufficient nutrition.
Long Yuehong took a breath silently and said as if he had nothing to say:
“I met my mother’s daughter yesterday.
"She is just 18 years old and works in a radio station under the Entertainment Department. She is in her early 1.7 meters and looks very good.
"You said, is it possible that she likes me? Alas, she has only been 1.75 meters in genetic improvement, and she looks average. She can only be said to be of average grade in each subject, but no department reserves me..."
Shang Jianyao's right eyebrows moved slightly and said:
"What's her name?"
"Feng Yunying, haha, she doesn't know Houyi, they are not in the same group." Long Yuehong thought Shang Jianyao wanted to ask Houyi about Houyi's situation. After all, many of the company's employees are loyal listeners of this announcer.
Shang Jianyao was not disappointed and continued to ask:
"Which floor is the area where you live? What is the house number?"
"What are you asking about this?" Long Yuehong was shocked and suspicious.
Shang Jianyao glanced at him:
"Go to her and ask if you may like you."
"..." Long Yuehong was inexperienced and knew that this would mess up the matter, "Haha, stop kidding."
He dared not continue with this topic:
"Shang Jianyao, which department do you want to join?"
"Ministry of Security." Shang Jianyao replied without hesitation.
Long Yuehong's voice was almost out of control:
"Are you crazy?
"This is very dangerous! Don't think that having meal supplements is a good thing! Haha, you're joking again."
The "Safety Department" is the most unsafe in all departments of the company, with the annual employee mortality rate several times that of other departments.
This is because they are responsible for many external actions, including but not limited to escorting bulk materials through the wilderness, fighting against invading people in spheres of influence or groups of monsters migrating here, guarding outposts outside the underground building, going deep into the wilderness to find old world relics, and protecting the scientific research team to complete the corresponding plan.
This leads to the employees of the "Safety Department" often facing pollution, diseases, monsters, unintentional people, bullets, and people are injured, infected, distorted, and even die, which is inevitable.
When Long Yuehong was frightened by Shang Jianyao's answer, Meng Xia and others entered the activity center one after another and found different areas to sit down according to their familiarity.
Yang Zhenyuan and Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong had a good relationship. They lived on the same floor, and were admitted to university at the same time and entered the same major. So, after he was fair and gentle, he swept around and walked directly to the two of them.
"Hey, why don't you have much energy? Haven't you had breakfast?" Long Yuehong looked at Yang Zhenyuan and asked with concern.
Yang Zhenyuan's face turned red:
"have eaten.
"Just a little tired."
"Why are you tired?" Long Yuehong looked puzzled.
Yang Zhenyuan didn't know how to explain, so he turned to Shang Jianyao and sighed:
"It turns out that getting married is such a tiring thing.
"But it's still pretty good. You guys should find a partner as soon as possible."
As he spoke, he smiled unconsciously.
Long Yuehong felt that she understood, so she didn't ask more questions and continued to talk about the topic just now:
"Yang Zhenyuan, Shang Jianyao just joked that he wanted to go to the 'Safety Department'!"
Yang Zhenyuan thought about it seriously:
"If I can be limited to the office, I want to go, and the treatment is really good."
The salaries of employees of the "Safety Department" are no different from those of other departments. They are all in accordance with the company's regulations. However, because they need high-intensity training, they can eat a meal every day - training day, dining in the exclusive canteen of the "Safety Department" on duty day, which is cheap and has enough portions, and usually there are meals to be paid.
This has a fatal appeal to many employees of the company.
"Isn't this nonsense? If it's really limited to the internal office, everyone wants to go, uh, except for the management and those who like to do research." Long Yuehong said disdainfully, "It's a pity that the internal office and field posts of the 'Safety Department' take turns unless you can enter the exclusive guard of the big boss, the management's direct operation cluster, and the important project defense cluster."
Shang Jianyao, who had not spoken, suddenly spoke:
“I want to be on the field.”
"..." Long Yuehong reached out and shook his hand in front of Shang Jianyao, "Is there really something wrong with your mind? How dangerous is it outside, don't you know?"
The "Safety Department" has many employees, and everyone knows more or less a few of them. They know what the current situation is on the dust and know that there is still chaos outside than order.
In comparison, the company that is peaceful and orderly can ensure the supply of basic materials can be called paradise.
Because of this, even if the "Safety Department" has corresponding subsidies and can bring back the dust and dirt items that do not have to be handed over or destroyed, not many people want to go from the bottom of their hearts.
In order to encourage everyone to join the "Safety Department", the board of directors is very generous in the promotion of corresponding employees. Many people may only reach D3 in their ordinary positions and cannot become senior employees. The staff of the "Safety Department" may be able to reach D4 in one year or even half a year. At the same time, those who have been discharged from the "Safety Department" and transferred to normal positions will be upgraded to one level.
Yang Zhenyuan could not understand Shang Jianyao's idea, but he did not refute it, but only pointed out:
"The employees of the 'Safety Department' are basically selected from married and children, and they rarely find only ones who are not married yet."
"Yes, yes." Long Yuehong nodded with a smile.
He looked at Shang Jianyao and said:
"Why do you want to be on the field?"
"To save all mankind." Shang Jianyao did not change any expression.
"Cough cough cough." Long Yuehong and Yang Zhenyuan were choked by their saliva at the same time.
At this moment, two people wearing black clothing came in from outside and handed a sealed paper bag to Chen Xianyu, the director of the "Activity Center", Old Man Chen.
Long Yuehong, Yang Zhenyuan, Meng Xia and others stood up at the same time and held their breath.
The paper bag contains the result of this distribution.
Unlike the unified marriage that requires public announcement, the distribution result involves confidentiality clauses, so it is told to the corresponding person in the form of a letter. During the whole process, no one else can know it.
It was confirmed that the paper bag was not damaged. After the signature was handed over, the two employees affiliated with the "board of directors" retreated to Chen Xianyu to supervise the subsequent distribution process.
"So quickly, it seems that we are among the first... I don't know what position it is..." Long Yuehong couldn't help but speak when she was nervous.
Shang Jianyao glanced at him and said:
"Suppose you first enter the 'Safety Department', so that no matter what the final result will be, it will not be worse."
"It makes sense!" Long Yuehong had no other choice anyway, so she simply followed Shang Jianyao's suggestion.
Chen Xianyu and Old Man Chen showed the paper bag to everyone, broke the seal and took out a stack of letters.
Then he pronounced the name on the envelope:
"Zhong Xiaomin."
A girl went up, took the envelope, and walked quickly to the side to open the letter.
"Yang Zhenyuan."
...
"Menxia."
...
"Long Yuehong."
...
"Shang Jianyao."
...
One by one, one by one, one by one, took the envelope that determined his destiny.
They did not avoid it, and directly opened the envelope in the "activity center" and pulled out the letter paper inside.
Long Yuehong stood not far from Chen Xianyu, and spread the paper with his hands slightly trembling:
"Long Yuehong, electronic card number 02511013768:
"Please report to Room 14 on the 647th floor before 12 noon."
647th floor... Long Yuehong's mind buzzed, and the letter paper in her hand fell to the ground.
He quickly picked it up again and looked at it several times, hoping that he had read it wrong just now.
Unfortunately, it didn't.
"It's over, it's over..." He said to himself, his face as if dead.
This underground building has a total of 650 floors, and the 5th floor closest to the ground belongs to the "Security Department".
Therefore, going to the 647th floor to report means joining the "Safety Department".
Bang, Shang Jianyao patted Long Yuehong's shoulder.
Long Yuehong turned around slowly, her eyes sluggish:
"It's over, it's over..."
Shang Jianyao said with a slightly bright smile:
“I’ve been assigned to the ‘Security Department’.”
"Ah?" Long Yuehong woke up from the nightmare and took the other party's letter.
He glanced quickly and saw the above content clearly:
"Shang Jianyao, electronic card number 02509083626:
"Please report to Room 14 on the 647th floor before 12 noon."
"We are in the same place?" Long Yuehong calmed down a little.
"It looks like." Shang Jianyao responded with a smile.
"Why are we so unlucky?" Long Yuehong was no longer so disappointed and depressed when she saw someone accompanying her.
Shang Jianyao said with a slanted head:
“I applied myself.”
"..." Long Yuehong couldn't speak.
At this time, Meng Xia, Yang Zhenyuan, Zhong Xiaomin and others saw their distribution results, either excited, happy, depressed, or sad, but none of them were as intense as Long Yuehong's reaction.
"Shang Jianyao, where have you assigned to? I went to the 36th floor research institute." Yang Zhenyuan took the letter paper and came closer.
Shang Jianyao replied with a smile:
"Ministry of Security."
In an instant, the hall of the "Activity Center" became extremely quiet. Those who were sad and depressed were surprised at first, and then they felt that their distribution results did not seem to be so bad.
Seeing this, Long Yuehong didn't want to stay in this place, so she pulled Shang Jianyao and whispered:
"Go to report, hey, I can only report first."
This is the result of being unable to resist unless you want to be exiled 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 long taken the "reserved" route.
Shang Jianyao waved to Yang Zhenyuan, took his lunch box, and walked to the other side of Area C with Long Yuehong.
There is an elevator leading to the top five floors.
Long Yuehong followed Shang Jianyao in silence for a while, suddenly pursed her lips and whispered:
"At least, you can see the real sky..."
