Chapter 273: Huge Workforce
At this moment, many homeless people gathered in Lieyang Square.
"Lord, please give us holy water!"
"Lord, please give us bread!"
"Lord, please give us copper coins!"
"Lord, please give us jobs that pay..."
The faint wailing echoed in Lieyang Square.
This group of ragged homeless people lined up in a long queue and gathered at the door of Lieyang Church.
They had not eaten for many days, and they were hungry and exuded a musty smell.
It can be seen that under their blackened skin, there seemed to be creeping insect shadows.
Chenxi frowned, she found that there were more and more people gathering near Lieyang Church recently.
It was a bit like returning to the past when the Xijiang River was polluted...
However, most of the homeless people became unemployed because of unemployment.
They lost their stable jobs and could only rely on prayer to get relief food support.
However, the Lieyang Church is now in a state of turmoil and has not stabilized after the previous waves of impact.
Since the pollution incident disappeared, they have stopped distributing relief food to these homeless people.
But there is still a steady stream of people arriving here.
Just because a kind nun yesterday, because she couldn't bear it, privately gave a piece of her own bread and threw it to the group of homeless people, and it was quickly eaten up, not even the crumbs were left.
After this, the group of homeless people immediately thought that their prayers were accepted by the gods.
They squatted at the door of the church even more happily, praying that the sky would send bread again.
Because of this kindness, the nun was punished by the bishop to face the wall and reflect on her mistakes, and deducted a day's food as a punishment.
Chenxi has been feeling very depressed recently.
These dirty homeless people kept gathering outside the church. Even though everyone was hungry and didn't even have the strength to speak, they could only make weak prayers. However, there were too many people. Each homeless person only needed to rub his vocal cords slightly to make a little noise. When they gathered together in groups, the sound was like countless ants rubbing the windows outside the door, which made people feel irritated.
Her astral body practice in recent days has fallen into a bottleneck period. In addition, these noisy sounds made it difficult for her to sit still and the progress of her practice was delayed.
If that was all, Chenxi could have arranged a spiritual wall around her room to isolate the outside sounds to prevent disturbing her own practice.
But in recent days, some homeless people didn't know what kind of leopard courage they had. From time to time, they organized people to try to climb in from the windows and back garden of the church. Once these things happened, the bishop would let her go outside to give a speech in the name of the saint to calm her emotions.
...After all, if thousands of homeless people rush up without caring about their lives, even with the power of the Fiery Sun Church, it will be difficult to resist so many homeless people.
At the same time, if too many casualties are caused on a large scale and they are killed all at once, such a large number of corpses may be used as materials for some kind of evil ritual formation, and the consequences may be more serious.
Regarding this, Bishop El-Melloi has issued an order prohibiting the burning of these homeless people in the name of the Lord of the Fiery Sun, so as not to destroy the faith in the Lord.
Although the Fiery Sun Church has a high prestige in this city, some things still cannot be done casually.
Otherwise... you will have to bear extremely terrible consequences!
Chenxi sighed and thought that this might also be a kind of equivalence?
At this time.
A melodious flute sound floated over the Fiery Sun Square.
This flute sound seemed to bring hope in their hearts, making people feel that there seemed to be a job prospect waiting for them ahead.
When the homeless heard the singing, they immediately stood up collectively and walked towards the outside of the square in a mighty manner.
In a flash, the crowded Lieyang Square became much quieter.
"What's going on?"
Chenxi witnessed this miraculous scene and couldn't help but stand there, feeling a little incredible.
Suddenly, she felt that the sound of the flute was familiar, and immediately thought of something.
"Could it be that the big guy took action?"
So many homeless people finally left.
But... where will they go in the future?
But in any case, it is a very good thing that these guys don't appear at the door of the church and disturb their practice.
Thinking of this, Chenxi immediately took out the bloody mobile phone and sent a message to Chen Ye.
…………
At noon, the outermost part of Lieyang Square.
Countless homeless people lined up in a long line, marched through Mingke Street, and walked towards the direction of the Manufacturing Association.
The mob organization lurking near Mingke Street was suddenly scared.
Under normal circumstances, if they see the natives passing by, they will definitely rob them.
However, the footsteps of tens of thousands of homeless people walking on the street were as dull as thunderous iron cavalry.
In this situation, any blind guy who dared to provoke such a large team would be courting death!
Many thug leaders were like playing dead and dumb today, canceling all their schedules, staying in their own nests honestly, and dared not go out.
Chen Ye's figure lurked in the shadows, playing the flute while infusing it with spiritual power, controlling the group of homeless people and heading to the Manufacturing Association.
He planned to assign this labor force to Tang Wu, and go with the descendants of Poseidon to complete the task of repairing the Xijiang Wharf.
"Ding!"
Just then, Chen Ye heard a crisp message prompt sound, and the blood curtain in front of him reorganized, and then formed a message text box-
[Chenxi: "Did you use music to attract the group of homeless people at the door of the church?"]
[Chen Ye: "Yes."]
[Chenxi: "Do you have any arrangements for them?"]
[Chen Ye: "Recently, President Tang Wu of the Manufacturing Association is working with the descendants of Poseidon to repair the Xijiang Wharf, but they lack a certain amount of manpower... You know, the number of descendants of Poseidon is limited, and the Manufacturing Association has several large orders recently, which is difficult to divide into too many people. So, I thought of using the performance fee in exchange for labor, and let this group of homeless people act as repairers. Free labor at the dock."]
[Chenxi: "I see... But, with so many homeless people, we have to provide them with food, right?"]
[Chen Ye: "I can call on the descendants of the Sea God to open the right of fishing in the West River to the homeless people. After all, they have also made contributions to the restoration of the West River Park, so let's allow them to fish there."]
[Chenxi: "Can the descendants of the Sea God accept it?"]
[Chen Ye: "It's okay. I have a certain say in their group."]
After all... I hold the [Trident of the Sea God], and Ajiaka, who currently has the highest prestige in the tribe, even wants to regard me as the tribe leader. So, it shouldn't be a problem to communicate with them and open up the right to fish?
After this pollution, the West River has been restored, and they should be able to make a living by fishing.
As for whether these homeless people can finally survive by fishing... there must be strong and weak ones.
Anyway, I have provided enough equivalent chips in exchange for labor, and it depends on them what kind of luck these homeless people are.
In this way, these unemployed homeless people can be transferred to the work of restoration and revitalization, and perhaps the economic decline of the City of Destiny can be alleviated.
However, this sentence has a different meaning in Chenxi's ears.
She didn't know that Chen Ye had become the patriarch of the descendants of the Sea God...
At this moment, her heart was slightly moved and she felt a little shocked:
"I didn't expect that Chen Ye, the big brother, had a certain degree of prestige among the indigenous people. This is fundamentally different from me who was born as a saint at the beginning and gained status and position by luck and halo."
"Alas, as expected, the big brother is always the big brother. This world follows the principle that the strong will always be strong."
"Even if the conditions are not so good at the beginning, relying on one's own ability, you can still get the same status and position in the later stage..."
"The overall strength of the descendants of the Sea God is still not weak. It is said that some of the ancient rituals in the tribe have mysterious powers. Although the inheritance has been interrupted and it is not as bright as the Lieyang Church for the time being, it is still a very powerful and profound indigenous people."
"As a player, Chen Ye can establish prestige among such indigenous groups. It is really an unimaginable thing..."
At this stage, I haven't heard of any players who can rely on their acquired strength to establish prestige among the indigenous groups.
Most of the big guys at the top of the list have more or less exclusive talents and halos...
Chen Ye is the only player she knows so far who has established his reputation among the natives with his own power.
Chenxi is increasingly aware of the subversive abilities of top players.
…………
At this moment, Chen Ye led the mighty descendants of the Sea God and appeared at the door of the Manufacturing Association.
Tang Wu saw the arrival of this group of homeless people from afar. Although he had learned about the situation through the text message function of the bloody mobile phone, the scale of this mighty team still brought a huge shock to his weak heart.
He took a deep breath, and when Chen Ye arrived at the door, he personally went forward to greet him, laughing:
"Boss Chen Ye, every time you come, I feel like you can bring me a huge surprise."
Chen Ye smiled slightly, turned around and looked at the group of homeless people behind him, and said:
"This team size should be enough to complete the restoration task, right?"
"Enough! Absolutely enough!" Tang Wu patted his chest and vowed, "With a team of this size, let alone a day, I can complete the restoration of Xijiang Park in half a day!"
Without waiting for Chen Ye to speak, Tang Wu took the initiative to say:
"This time in Xijiang, you can get 10% of the shares, and I will get 5%, and the rest will be used for daily management."
Chen Ye nodded, and there was no problem with this.
Ten percent... This is equivalent to a major shareholder in terms of equity.
After all, to maintain the construction of the entire Xijiang Park, the later expenses must be very high.
So...
There is a considerable amount of assets, which are used for daily management expenses, and a management fee must be paid to the descendants of the Sea God.
In addition, Chen Ye can stably obtain a profit of 10%, which is already a considerable proportion.
The employees sent by Tang Wu only have 5% of the equity.
Of course... this is also because compared with the large number of laborers brought by Chen Ye, the number of workers sent by Tang Wu to the manufacturing association is not particularly large.
After all, he has more business orders recently, and what he pays mainly is construction technology, not labor.
But the descendants of the sea god themselves also have a certain level of construction. Therefore, the income brought by Tang Wu is just icing on the cake for the restoration task of the descendants of the sea god.
The equity that can be obtained is relatively small...
It is worth mentioning that the 10% equity obtained by Chen Ye belongs to private assets.
But if he fulfills the task of the patriarch of the descendants of the sea god and uses this fund to dispatch, the equity may be far more than this.
Therefore, this is a hidden wealth.
The benefits of making Xijiang Park well for his wealth are still very obvious.
"It seems... the identity of the patriarch of the descendants of the sea god... is still very useful. To survive in the world of the weird era, whether you can have a wide range of resources and connections is still a very important force."
Chen Ye sighed in his heart.
Afterwards, Tang Wu immediately led this group of homeless people to Xijiang to carry out the restoration work.
Chen Ye also communicated with Agakar about this matter, and both sides said that there was no problem.
Since the deal has been reached... the remaining thing is to redevelop Xijiang Park.
Chen Ye followed and witnessed the huge labor force under the leadership of Tang Wu, and the huge scene of the construction project.
A woman in a red cheongsam waved a red flag and commanded every worker present to go to the appropriate place to work in a commanding tone.
"【Flag Bearer】, a second-level profession, also has spiritual attributes, but this kind of spiritual power is benchmarked against the 【Emperor】 sequence, which can command everything."
"In the later stage, you can also unlock coercive skills such as Overlord Haki and Divine Power, and have a good combat power."
"In the early stage, it was mainly commanding and controlling..."
"I didn't expect that Tang Wu's subordinates still have some talents."
Chen Ye said secretly in his heart.
After all, the profession of the [Emperor] sequence is still relatively rare.
This sequence can command targets with lower sequences than itself.
The effect is much better than that of the puppeteer!
The former can command the natives and players, while the latter can only control the products made by itself...
The upper and lower limits are hardly at the same level.
Chen Ye observed the project for a while and did not waste too much time. Soon, he summoned the ‘ferry boat’ and passed through the lightless sea area at the border of the Sea of Dead Corpses and arrived at the underground world.
