Chapter 334 Fuji Society
[It is now December 13, Monday, 8:10 a.m.]
[Good morning, Mr. Russell]
[Snowfall warning for Luopan District, Tianen District, Jumu District, and Appergy District]
[It has been detected that you are in Tianen District. There will be moderate to heavy snow before 11:40. Please be careful when traveling]
[You have to-do items today: 9:30 am, meet with the director of Amirus]
As the melodious wake-up sound sounded in his head, Russell's sleepiness was quickly dispelled.
The first thing he did was to slide away the large "To-Do" pop-up window that was blocking his sight.
Russell unconsciously shrank into the thick quilt and rolled it to the side.
But he didn't bump into the delphinium, he just touched the sheets that were still warm.
"Uh-huh..."
He stretched slowly and sat up from the bed.
It had been a while since he'd gotten up so early. I was still a little uncomfortable being woken up by the alarm clock so early today.
Since the addition of three new people to the Special Enforcement Department, Russell's workload has been greatly reduced.
To be more specific, he no longer goes to work occasionally.
——This occasional frequency is about two or three days a week.
Counting the original Sunday off, he now only works about three days a week.
For those who have been on duty for the past three days, they basically go home after four o'clock in the afternoon... If there are no interview tasks in the afternoon, then he may arrive at the company at nine o'clock in the morning, have a meal at the company at noon, and relax his legs.
Naturally, the company didn't have any objections.
The entire execution department almost knew that the two heads of the special execution department were on good terms - Delphinium was still working anyway, there were still pillars in the company, and it didn't really matter if the group of greens didn't come.
He is cute, let him play!
However, because people who have seen Delphinium are very rare, there are almost no people who are familiar with her; but the fact that Russell was abducted caused the little girls to complain.
The scandal about "Ultramarine" even spread to the Internet... But because no one dared to directly post the evidence online against the surveillance of colleagues in the Network Security Department, the only ones that stayed on the Internet were "I heard it" This level of gossip is all.
With the salary support from the fake Tokifat director, coupled with the sudden increase in advertising endorsement business, Russell's income suddenly increased a lot.
After getting rich, Russell did not become bad. But his life was visibly becoming more comfortable.
After all, Russell doesn't like to buy any luxury goods, and he doesn't have any bad habits. Although Russell is very greedy, he does not deliberately buy those expensive "cultured ingredients"... The highest-grade synthetic meat is actually much better in taste, texture and nutrition than real meat.
Those who still spend a lot of money to eat real meat today do it not so much for the taste, but to enjoy the "rareness". Russell never cared about symbolic and ritualistic things.
What he spent most of the money he earned this time was to buy a new float car for Mr. Herman so that he could use it to travel to work.
The only thing left was to donate a large amount of money to Paradise Birds - after Paradise Birds adapted to the work of the Special Execution Department, it felt that the work here was really not too much. And she and the two angels both have a restless personality...Russell would huddle in the corner of the sofa in the office to catch fish, but they obviously couldn't enjoy this cat-like fun.
So they applied to the church and got an orphanage set up.
Currently, three people, plus a priest and two nuns, take care of more than a dozen orphans. The ages range from three or four to twelve or thirteen years old.
Russell was also very pleased that they could finally find something they liked to do. Not only did he not catch them back and imprison them in the office, but he donated half a million credits to them.
With this money, you won’t have to run around looking for people to donate for at least a few years.
Considering that they are one bishop and two angels after all, there are many rich people who want to donate money to please them. They accepted a favor for no reason, and they had to pay it back in the future - but after all, they were not orthodox church members, and they did not understand or disdain to understand the worldly wisdom of compromise and win-win. If those rich people think that they can bribe them by donating money, they are wrong.
But in that case, taking money and not doing anything will make them offend others.
So Russell simply refused to let them collect donations, and instead paid for all the expenses himself——
Now he is a big star. There is no pressure at all to support dozens or twenty orphans.
On the other hand, if they all go to college in the future, it will be a huge sum that cannot be ignored... But that will be a long time later. Moreover, these children are of different ages, so it doesn’t matter if they are spread out.
Maybe Russell will have his own children by then.
Since liberating the God Vessel, Russell has felt that life has become simpler and easier.
——Or on the other hand, he became a little nervous.
He can turn into Alice and stay at home reading and studying, and let the God Container turn into himself and go to work or be interviewed.
He can also let the God Vessel become the godfather to deal with the "family" side of things, while Russell can stay at home and exercise, or use the "detective" vest to go out and increase his presence.
Just as they suspected. As resources were further depleted, companies finally began large-scale layoffs.
Not only the head office and directly affiliated companies, but also small companies that have nothing to do with the giants have been affected.
This will inevitably lead to massive chaos.
But the company's will is very determined - they just want to reduce the population, so they drive them into the lower city first.
Russell's previous layout did indeed take effect... The "family" he founded attracted the largest number of high-quality talents with the strongest controllability during the first wave of catastrophe.
And the scum that they eliminated also formed various forces.
Against the background of other forces, the "family" founded by the Godfather, which deliberately did not take a name in order to reduce its sense of existence, also had its own name with the rise of other forces.
At first they called it "Fushi Cult", but the godfather didn't like this name.
"We don't have any faith to speak of, and it's not our turn to save the world. If we must have a name, just call us 'Fuji Society'..."
The Godfather puts it this way: "Support those who need support and relieve those who need relief. If the company can't do it or won't do it, then let us do it. But it doesn't come without a price. But the main selling point is that we always It will come more promptly than 'justice'."
At this time, the Godfather finally announced his real code name: Barber.
"Everyone needs a barber, someone he can trust to get to his back with a knife, someone who can help you maintain a level of decency you can't maintain on your own. And a combination of the two."
The "Fuji Society" is different from the previous "Veil of Ignorance" and "Eternal Reincarnation" in that it has the tacit approval of churches and companies. There are even some people in Shangcheng District who have joined the Fuji Society to seek "mutual help when necessary."
The principle of Fuji Society is "conditional grace". Help those in need and ask for help in return when you need help in the future, just like money in a bank.
What the Godfather provides is "a loan of favor."
For those "godsons" who have some nurturing value, but need much more help than he can give to others, and therefore cannot "pay", the godfather can temporarily use his own face to mediate.
For people who are unfamiliar with each other, or who have conflicts or old grudges, the godfather can also be used as a guarantor to introduce and conduct "favor transactions."
This kind of business soon spread from the lower city to the upper city.
From being born without a code, to a direct blood relative on the board of directors of the head office; from being a feared killer, thief, and mercenary, to being a worshiped artist, playwright, and other "idol"; from being penniless and even owing a lot of debt Frustrated employees, to the top of companies large and small...
Many people were in his debt.
But these favors will not be accumulated and not repaid, and a favor will turn into a hatred. Instead, the "debt repayment" was quickly completed using a method that the other party could easily accept.
The "prices" that everyone can accept are gathered together, but gradually they form a huge community of interests.
Although it is still only a prototype now...
However, unknowingly... he has become a real "godfather".
