"neither"

"Why don't you open it and have a look?"

"Then I really opened it, isn't it something to trick me?" Shi Huaiya looked at Lao Xia suspiciously. Her gang really did this kind of thing. Opening the box, a ball of cake bounced and became mushy on her face.

"Let me say it first, I can take a joke, but if I am tricked on this occasion, I will also be angry."

"No, don't worry."

"Then I can open it." Shi Huaiya carefully took the box away and opened it.

Platinum polyhedral ring, each surface is a slightly curved concave surface polished by nano-scale machine tools, refracting bright lights, etched needles outline grapevine-like lines on the surface, converging towards the center, a small size , but showing a deep rose-purple gemstone like ripe grapes, there is no doubt that this is a ring.

And it is a piece inlaid with extremely rare garnet (pyrnet by ton), carved with amazing craftsmanship and craftsmanship (machining including programming micro-carving process takes 5 minutes), very artistic and beautiful (country country village Gu use an expensive gemstone ring (cost no more than 10 yuan) that I thought about designing).

Combined with this occasion, this location, this atmosphere and the background BGM, the uncomfortable operators on the left and right immediately regained their spirits, and each of them was about to twist their heads into a twist, wishing to learn the skills of flying head and head.

"Crack!" Shi Huaiya closed the lid and said seriously to Lao Xia, "I, we, you, I...I mean, our current relationship is not suitable." It was full of blush, in this atmosphere and occasion, what do you mean by giving the ring?

Especially those musicians who have no vision, they play soft love-themed music as if watching a play is not a big deal.

If it weren't for the usual prestige, if those subordinates didn't dare to make a fuss, they really wouldn't be able to step down, and they couldn't really agree.

"We've only known each other for a few days, you just give me this?" Shi Huaiya's face was flushed, and even her slender and fair neck was dyed a layer of rose color. She is still an innocent girl, and she has never been in love. However, when you come up, give someone a ring in this atmosphere.

"Why are you so close?" Shi Huaiya, with an extremely ruddy complexion, turned her head to look at those subordinates, and gave them a smack that she thought was vicious, but in this state, it was extremely moist, as if there were thousands of styles The stare inside.

"Ahem!" Immediately, the people at the tables around them returned to their dignified appearance, even more serious than at the beginning, as if everyone had just been having a serious discussion about major national affairs and social security issues.

"Inappropriate, did I take the wrong gift box?" Lao Xia opened the box and took a look, "It's not wrong, this is specially picked for you, although the color tone is a bit unsuitable, but the temperament should match well .”

"But, but..." Shi Huaiya didn't know what to say, should she refuse?This is of course, she has only known this man for a few days, although he is not very annoying, but you can't just put a bomb on him

"This....."

"What is this, isn't it a ring... a ring!" Lao Xia also realized it, and immediately blushed, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean that"

"Huh?" Shi Huaiya's shy expression froze in an instant, although she would be very shy and a little bit resistant when she said that meaning, but what do you mean by saying that this is a misunderstanding without that meaning?

"Hey, Lao Xia, you are so stupid. Can you believe what the cockroach said? Let me explain for this guy. This is our new product, a batch of jewelry, but Lao Xia said that the jeweler It is one that pays attention to qualifications and history, and a new brand will not be popular at all, so the first batch is used as a gift.”

Yelena sighed, but she was more than happy to explain the misunderstanding.Otherwise, call a girl who is at most 3~4 years older than me a foster mother?

Just thinking about it, she felt uncomfortable, not the uncomfortable feeling of her own toys being taken away by others, but how to put it... It was like playing hide-and-seek when she was a child. My friends lost that feeling when they played with other people.

Fear, restlessness, resentment, jealousy, or both. In short, the relationship between an older daughter and a new stepmother has always been one of the great problems in human family relationships.

"It's just that this idiot didn't understand at all what it means to give a girl a ring at this time. You can forgive this guy. After all, a guy who has never been in a relationship is just such a dead-headed guy."

"Well, it sounds like, Yelena, you seem to have been in love"

"Hmph~Of course." Yelena raised her head and chest, as if she was an experienced old Si Ji.

"Don't listen to her, she talked about it when she played the house wine at home, the 'boyfriend' is the girl next door, oh, and the way she was pursued by a little boy when she was in Usas, it seems The love experience and time only lasted...for an hour?" Lao Xia revealed Yelena's background without hesitation.

"Do you know why she fell in love? It was another girl from the same mine who took out a sour berry, and she fell in love. It is said that she was only 8 years old at the time."

"Fuck! Who told you about these old Xias!" Yelena jumped up like a cat whose tail had been trampled on. How could these black history of childhood be told in front of everyone?

"The Petrenko who grew up in the same mine as you is the one that Ta... Xiaota brought back. By the way, he is also one of your admirers. Also, by the way , This love lasts until you take them to school, after that, his dream of love is shattered."

"Wait, what did Yelena do?" With this interruption, Char Siu Mao also recovered from the embarrassment and asked curiously.

"She was teaching them physics, chemistry and basic math, and when the little boys finished their lessons, they looked as if their souls had been sucked out by a dementor. I wondered what she did."

"Petrenko, right? Okay, I remember." Seeing Yelena's dark expression, she was obviously ready to go back. arrive.

"If you really feel that this gift is embarrassing, I'll pick another one for you."

"No need, that seems to be a ghost." Shi Huaiya had initially calmed down, and I have to say that Yelena's black history has indeed contributed a lot.

"I have to say, your taste is good, and the quality of the gemstones is also very good, and you just mentioned the mine, does Boss Xia have a mine under his name?"

"Yes, just opened, these are by-products, on the snowy field of Ursus"

"Xueyuan mine..." Shi Huaiya frowned slightly, the reputation of the mines there is not very good, "I know there are some things that I can't change by myself, but at least, at least the store under my name And businesses don't collect gems with blood on them..."

"No, you misunderstood, I dug this, I dug it myself."

"Huh?" The little tiger showed a dumbfounded look, looking at Lao Xia's tall and well-proportioned appearance, and his delicate skin, he didn't look like he had been digging in a mine at all.

"Lao Xia didn't lie to you, he really dug it. In fact, the mine was accidentally blown up when the mountain was blown up, and it hasn't been officially mined yet." Yelena explained, "So, there are indeed a batch of high-end gemstones. , However, we don’t have many craftsmen and channels to cash in. As for the problem you’re worried about, it doesn’t exist, if you want, you can take the time to visit us.”

It's one thing not to like Shi Huaiya, but the white rabbit still knows the importance of the treatment of infected people on the farm and future construction.

"The infected people on our side are different from those nobles in Ursus. We provide board and lodging, medical care and free anti-infection drugs, and the working hours are very humane."

"Behind every group that says this is... Regarding this point, as a police officer of the Longmen Guards Bureau, it is inconvenient for me to overstep my authority, but I will try to find out whether what you said is true." Shi Huaiya His expression became colder, but it was a little more relaxed than when he heard about the mine.

"Not only did I dig it, but I installed and designed the bomb that exploded the mine. It was W who exploded. She is also an infected person. This gemstone is called pyrope..." Lao Xia After showing off her mining knowledge and some interesting little knowledge in her own hands, Shi Huaiya believed it a little more.

"Ahem, I need your help with something." Miss Shi Huaiya suddenly put on a playful look, "My father will come to Longmen to visit me in a few days, and I will leave the role-playing to you. "

"Ah, we still need to add some drama at the moment!?"

"Otherwise? As long as you pass this level, it will be easy. Besides, won't you be bothered by Lao Wei pimping you every day?"

"...makes sense."

"I'll let you know when the time is up, and bring Yelena with me, so that the old man won't be too harsh when he speaks in front of a child, and he can get away with an excuse."

"Don't worry, I will act well." Yelena nodded, saying that the matter of disturbing pornography will be left to her.

Chapter 11 There's a ghost among us

With the progress of the project and the completion of some less important buildings, Lao Xia is about to start a crucial job, which is "recruitment". It is impossible for him to rely on himself and the civilian staff seconded from Rhode Island to be responsible. After doing so many things, it is even more necessary to prepare for the handover of the next development of Kazdel and the feeding back of Ursas Farm.

White Rabbit is still learning, not to mention that she is not old enough to take charge of such a large enterprise, among other things, when negotiating, the other party may suspect that she cannot make decisions because of her age and status, and may be contemptuous. This may cause hostility and prepare to take the opportunity to make trouble.

Although Lao Xia is generally not afraid of these people, if a company wants to develop, it is necessary for its own risk management and control. It is absolutely impossible for a business to continue normally if there are people doing things every day.

There is no target for the future CEO of the company, but the current structure almost needs to be established. The security department is the first to be established in the entire corporate structure.

It's easy to find a person who can scream for the traitorous ministers to rush into the Longmen Administration Building, but I'm afraid there is no way to find a qualified personnel manager, let alone other departments at all levels, such as sales, quality inspection, and public relations. , finance, supervision, research and development, etc., all require a large number of people to fill.

Recruitment is recruitment, but the enterprise structure also needs to be built step by step. It is impossible for him to recruit thousands of employees at one time today, and tomorrow he will become a large international enterprise. Therefore, the main recruitment is now the main backbone of the enterprise.

That is to say, managers at all levels and department leaders, partly rely on secondments from Rhodes Island, partly rely on high-priced headhunting, and finally review these personnel by themselves, and then stuff them into these departments after confirming their qualifications, and build up the empty shelf first.

However, now it is mainly the civilian staff of the company that is recruited, and it is only the civilian staff in the Longmen area. There are two department leaders and 300 to [-] clerks, all of which can be set up with no more than [-] posts.

As for the farm management personnel, Tallulah is currently in charge. In the future, Kazdel’s farm can be considered to be in charge of the down-to-earth and hard-working Captain Mudstone. The best contractor candidate for the construction company under the group.

"At least half of them are insiders, and the rest are spies." The white rabbit looked at the bustling crowd at the job fair and said, "Are you really relieved?"

"Don't worry, because the branch company here is just an office, or a person responsible for making sales and making money, without any sensitive places or commercial secrets." Taking advantage of Longmen's cheap labor and transportation advantages of infected people, it is possible to engage in low-tech labor-intensive Large-scale industries are naturally not afraid of commercial espionage.

"It is enough as long as the financial and security departments are reliable people." The former can guarantee that they will not be able to obtain the company's specific economic and financial transaction data, and it is impossible to take money out of Lao Xia's pocket. Destroy.

"Well, the public relations department also needs to arrest them. I guess they will do some bad tricks when they find that there are not many secrets to steal here." Thanks to Terra's lack of Internet, otherwise, the water army and the sunspots would probably be like people after the spring rain. A lot of mushrooms grew out of thin air.

"As for the rest of the errands, those who do pure writing work, those who do 'micro-innovation', and those administrative matters, it doesn't matter even if they are handed over to those spies, after all..."

Even if you are a spy, in order not to be expelled from the company, you must at least pass the test of professional ability, and you must be conscientious in your work attitude. Even if the team is composed of insiders, their professionalism, integrity and professional skills may be worse than that of others. A normal team of loyal ministers is even better.

After all, the old courtiers may rely on the old to sell the old, and quickly become moths in the success book, but the meticulous work does not dare to do this, especially when Lao Xia is "a young talent in Longmen" on the surface, "a benevolent Ursas investor" and "a new star in the business world of Longmen". It is said that Wei Guang is reaching the extreme, privately...

Who doesn't know that his No. [-] bodyguard, Ms. W, is missing all day long on vacation, but from time to time, some cleanly cleaned minced meat and small bones are found in the Longmen sewer and various corners?

Once the infiltration was discovered, these twenty-five boys would naturally not feel that they could be alive and kicking.

"Such a group of excellent employees who don't ask for treatment, don't ask for salary, are conscientious, neither greedy nor robbed, and have outstanding business capabilities. How can I bear to reject them?"

"What if there are people who can't see themselves and the situation clearly?"

"It doesn't matter. Proper disclosure of some so-called 'secrets' is also part of the plan. In fact, I have prepared a lot of 'secrets' for them." They are still contradictory, enough to make them believe that there is something unspeakable hidden in it man's great secret.

As for the real secret that Lao Xia has already put on the table, it is that the Xia Group will recruit any Longmen people with work skills normally and without discrimination, regardless of whether they are infected or not. There is a condition for "unconditional" recruitment, that is, the condition of "obeying post transfer" must be signed.

These people will be sent to the Usa base or the future Kazdel base after being screened by secret investigations and the help of some familiar infected people, and Lao Xia's plot or next plan is also on the surface. , that is pure technology and material suppression, scissors dumping.

However, no one thinks that there is something wrong with this conspiracy. Isn’t he building such a large enterprise based on the huge profits of monopoly trade? It is also normal for him to expand production and expand the scale of production. In order to reduce costs, it is normal to recruit a large number of infected people Behavior, even behavior that is put on the table for everyone to see.

"This is the principle of darkness under the lights. How could they believe that I really don't have any weird schemes, and I am indeed making money and enjoying myself, and by the way, making outstanding contributions to the material wealth of the people of Terra~"

Lao Xia laughed and said, because many things don't need him to do it himself, as long as the material abundance is pushed to that position, some people will do it voluntarily.

For example, in terms of improving the situation of the infected, Lao Xia shouted hoarsely like the Tower of Babel, and no one paid any attention to him, and he was even easily regarded as a deadly enemy by those noble princes who depended on oppressing the infected to live. .

It is useless to learn from Rhodes Island to conduct free clinics, because the infected people cannot afford the medicine or cannot afford the medicine, and they will become competitors with Rhine Life, and will be blocked by various obstacles, and this will improve the actual social status of the infected people Useless.

However, if Lao Xia uses cheap oral medicine to scrape off their last dime, and then uses cheaper protective equipment to scrape away every dime of those infected colonies, drive them into factories, and squeeze out more than simple miners Higher Interests...

Then instead, the infected will quickly upgrade from a one-time leek to a part of capital. If they don’t want to be forced to go bankrupt by Lao Xia’s cheap similar products, they have to use cheap infected workers. Becoming a worker, needless to say, increases his status.

It's like when women's rights and interests really improved. Men died almost as much. After women were forced to work in factories because of lower wages, women's social status began to improve step by step. They are no longer someone's vassal, but A workforce and a consumer.

【Therefore, the only function of pastoral female boxing is to turn women from independent social beings into appendages and livestock again, and they are still complacent】

In the same way, when the infected become a qualified worker who can be squeezed out of more benefits than they are now, they will spontaneously improve their social status. After all, a little fame and honor are more valuable to capitalists than real money. Worthless to the new nobility.

And those who still cling to old-fashioned ideas don’t need Lao Xia and Talula to pry their brains open one by one, because those old buddies who have been blocked from making money will spontaneously complete this matter, Moreover, they have greater power and higher social status, and can use more resources and connections to complete this process.

"Then it's your turn, the instigator, to be hung up on the street lamp?"

"Who said that this is the necessary primitive accumulation. Either squeeze others or squeeze yourself, otherwise? Do you expect pie from the sky?" Old Xia said solemnly, "When they get used to squeezing the infected, I will We will start to upgrade the technology, you know, what I lack is qualified workers and manpower, not technology."

"Once the technology upgrade starts, I will increase the treatment of the infected. The reason for the external is very simple. My equipment is more efficient. I only need to hire fewer workers. It costs two people to let him do the work of three people. It is still in line with the customary thinking of the public.”

As for the fact that due to high-efficiency automation, the combined work of these three people is only half of the original workload, which is inconvenient to explain to those who follow suit.

"They don't want to be squeezed out of my bankrupt, so they have to spit back to me the benefits they exploited before. They have to hold training courses, otherwise those infected workers who are so poor that they can't even read a word can't operate my machine at all. .”

"Then they will promote universal education, promote equal rights for infected people and ordinary people, and even in order to curb the further expansion of monopoly enterprises like me, they would rather lose a little profit and create a moral high ground for themselves."

After all, the loss of implementing the 3-hour working system in a small workshop that only employs 8 infected people is obviously much smaller than that of Lao Xia, who may have hundreds of thousands of infected employees in the future, implementing the 8-hour working system.

The labor cost that Lao Xia has to pay for the latter has to increase by at least 50%. If such a large enterprise is treated equally, he needs to recruit more people to work, and the actual cost increase is more than 200%.

"This hasn't discussed the internal boundary effect that leads to profit reduction. However, this is no problem for me, because as long as technology continues to maintain rapid development, I will always have a more efficient production method to reduce costs. Of course, the external I will still show the appearance of driving other people to death at a loss."

"Especially Longmen Coin itself doesn't mean much to me, and the whole group is my sole proprietorship, so I can fight them like this without making any money."

It is as if a socialist state-owned enterprise is mixed with a group of capitalist private enterprises, and it is as if a government that completely obeys the will of the individual is fighting a cold war with people. There is no problem at all with the protection of basic human rights that quickly force them into modern society.
