#5 - Chapter 5 Team
Time flies.
Since Qin Jin started his large-scale entrepreneurial venture and factory construction, the news of his wealth had long been impossible to hide.
Qin's father and mother had already mentioned it to some relatives, who all knew that he had somehow earned his first pot of gold.
Now he was going to set up a large-scale factory and become a boss.
It wasn't exactly jealousy.
From a young age, Qin Jin had been seen as a relatively well-behaved child by relatives and friends, going to university, serving in the army for two years, and then working for several years, always following the rules.
Now, his sudden burst of success was not incomprehensible; such examples occasionally appeared in their social circle, it just happened that this person was Qin Jin.
In today's society with its information explosion, opportunities might be hidden in some corner.
When you meet that pig, you fly.
July.
The foundation was largely completed with the main framework, leaving some decoration and the installation of various equipment.
Qin Jin could finally free himself up to deal with other matters.
Wang Yang had already found him a team of security personnel, personally selected from a security company, and after a test and reputation collection, about eight people passed.
In addition, there were two chefs, three canteen workers, two electricians, and two financial accountants.
There were also several teachers from agricultural universities who would bring students for internships.
These people would be called over to start work after the base was ready.
They were currently on paid leave, and Qin Jin could afford to pay their salaries for these two months.
He didn't let Wang Yang recruit people for other production businesses, which confused Wang Yang, who didn't know what kind of business this boss was going to do in the future.
The factory was built strangely, and he hadn't even seen a single machine yet.
If it weren't for the fact that the salary was always paid on time and he had privately inquired and found that the boss's background was relatively clean, he would have thought he had joined some illegal organization.
This day.
Qin Jin dialed a phone number and called over his best friend from the past.
Zhong Yu, also known as A Yu.
He grew up with Qin Jin in a certain community in Shenzhen and had an inseparable relationship.
After graduating from high school, they went out to study and work separately, and met less often than before, but they would occasionally call or chat on WeChat.
Qin Jin knew that after graduating from university, he stayed in Yangcheng, the provincial capital next to Shenzhen, to work, and had arranged to eat and brag a few times.
In the pre-reincarnation doomsday, he never encountered A Yu after the Mutation Night. He thought that A Yu mutated in the early days of the doomsday outbreak, or was killed by zombies.
In that hellish environment, there was no way to find a friend, he couldn't even find his parents, let alone other people.
He could only think of these people when he occasionally recalled the past.
This rebirth, Qin Jin plans to help A Yu!
At least when the Mutation Night comes, he must protect his family's safety, and he can also assist himself in the future.
He doesn't have many people he can trust.
A Yu grew up with him, he is familiar with his character, understands his family situation, and can be considered half a trustworthy person.
This afternoon, Qin Jin personally ran to Yangcheng (it's only two hundred kilometers and two hours' drive from the base to Yangcheng), and met A Yu in a coffee shop.
After some reminiscing.
He learned that A Yu was currently working in a small company with a monthly salary of 8k, which was mediocre.
Qin Jin went straight to the point and said:
"A Yu, come and help me. I've started a factory now, and it's exactly the time when I need people. I'll give you a monthly salary of 12k first, and a bonus at the end of the year depending on the situation. You don't need to understand anything, I'll arrange it slowly later, just need you to help me wholeheartedly!"
Zhong Yu was stunned.
He didn't expect that his childhood friend came to him to poach him. He knew his own affairs, and he didn't think he had any special talents that would attract Qin Jin.
He also roughly knew from the chat just now that Qin Jin had made a fortune and was preparing to open a company. To invite him like this, directly increasing his salary by 50%, was mostly because of their relationship.
He was both happy and moved, but he said, "A Jin! I appreciate your kindness, but I really can't help you with anything. I'm afraid I'll hinder your development, why don't you find someone more suitable."
Even though he really wanted to agree, he couldn't act on emotion, so he refused.
Qin Jin relaxed and leaned back in his chair, took a sip of coffee, and then said slowly:
"I don't need you to be able to handle everything. What I need is someone I can trust. Come over with peace of mind. We've known each other for so many years, don't we understand each other? If it really doesn't work, you can stay with me for half a year first. If you feel uncomfortable by then, it won't be too late to leave. It won't be difficult for you to find another job."
"A Yu, I sincerely invite you, not just because of our relationship. You possess qualities that you can't see yourself, and that's what I need."
At this time, Zhong Yu looked at his childhood friend in front of him. He seemed to be exuding an unspeakable aura, with sharp eyes, and sincerity in his majesty.
He realized that Qin Jin wasn't joking.
He responded with a wry smile: "Since you've said it to this point, I won't decline. I'll go back to the company tomorrow to handle the procedures. I'll rely on you to support me in the future."
Qin Jin also smiled.
He stretched out his palm and hovered it in front of A Yu.
A Yu also smiled and stretched out his hand, and then the two hands shook heavily together.
————
After dealing with A Yu's matter.
Qin Jin's next target was his teammate from his two years in the army.
At that time, he enlisted mostly because his father was also a veteran.
He had been influenced by his family since he was a child, and he also had a certain yearning for military life. With the support of his family, he went along and served in the army for two years.
As for why he didn't continue to stay in the team, it's a long story, and I'll mention it when I have the opportunity in the future.
Even though he only had a short two-year military life, he also learned a lot of things.
Without these experiences, perhaps he would have died in some corner before his rebirth.
Several years have passed, and he still has the contact information of his better comrades from the past.
They also have a WeChat group, and occasionally everyone will brag and chat in the group.
As far as he knows.
At that time, there were ten people in their class. Two of them were doing relatively well, and the others were doing generally (including himself, who couldn't be said to be successful before). One went home to inherit the family business and manage the family's company, and the other was also starting a business and had achieved some success.
So the target is the other seven people.
Call them one by one directly.
He made it clear that he was starting a business, and because it was a research and development-oriented high-tech agricultural direction, there would often be special results that needed protection, so the company needed a relatively large security team, with a monthly salary set at 10,000.
Three people immediately agreed.
They could come to join Qin Jin after they dealt with their current matters.
The other two politely refused, and the other two said they would consider it further and give him an answer later.
Qin Jin temporarily stopped persuading them. Everyone has their own ambitions.
Although this opportunity may be related to the other party's life and death, who knows, perhaps dying in the Mutation Night is also a good choice?
The three comrades who were preparing to join him were named Li Bowen, Chen Junchi, and Liu Wenhao. They said in the phone that they would communicate the specific details after arriving at the base.
He deeply understands the complexity of human nature.
Now he doesn't dare to guarantee that they will be loyal to him in the future, at least he can't find a better choice at the moment.
Prestige needs to be subtly influenced, unless you are already in a high position, otherwise it cannot be achieved overnight.
Qin Jin doesn't require his teammates to have a good relationship with him. What he needs are trustworthy subordinates.
In the future, the base must only have his voice!
On the premise of not affecting the overall direction, he can listen to other people's opinions.
But he will suppress anyone else who dares to covet the control of the base with thunderous means!
Even relatives!
No one knows better than him what the doomsday will be like.
Although there are some trustworthy teammates in the doomsday, sometimes they can save a life. Having experienced that kind of fearful days, the importance of teammates is self-evident.
But human nature is also a terrible thing. People who eat too much will eventually have unwanted thoughts, and Qin Jin has his own way of dealing with such people.
How many lives will a survivor who has survived for six years in the doomsday have on his hands?
I'm afraid even Qin Jin himself can't count them.
He never thought he was a good person. Good people can't survive in the doomsday. Only ruthless people can survive!
Be ruthless to others and ruthless to yourself!
—————
After arranging his friend, Qin Jin returned to Shenzhen.
The original rental house had long been vacated. Now he spends most of his time at the base. This time he came to Shenzhen to deal with another matter.
Looking for the gray area.
There are many materials that cannot be obtained through normal channels, only through other means.
There are nearly three months left before the Mutation Night, and now the base warehouse has taken shape, and some time-consuming materials need to be prepared in advance!
Weapons!
Of course, not guns.
Before the doomsday arrives, Qin Jin will definitely not touch this thing that will kill him as soon as he touches it.
His eyes are on other directions.
On the Internet, he found many people who made these weapons by searching for sellers who sold crossbows and unsharpened sword collections.
A harmonious society cannot have weapons, and knives are also controlled items, but there are various types of archery sports and various unsharpened knife collection fields.
Qin Jin's eyes are on this.
Normal crossbows have limited power, but if you know special methods to modify them, the power will not be much worse than a pistol!
At that time, it was not possible to directly buy hand crossbows. They needed to be disassembled and shipped separately.
They need to be assembled after receiving them.
He plans to find someone to customize a batch of disassembled parts for hand crossbows, bows and arrows, and various types of unsharpened knives.
The arrowheads can be delivered without being sharpened to meet the regulations. (Prepare the equipment in the base, and you can quickly modify the blade when needed)
Although there are also direct sales on the Internet, you don't need to think about it to know that the power must belong to the super-castrated version.
And what he needs is a weapon that can kill zombies and even kill people in the doomsday, so he can only use his own method.
Do people who dare to sell this kind of weapon think so "simply"?
There must be their own circle.
Qin Jin was not idle during his spare time supervising the construction of the base before.
Found a lot of such merchants.
After comparison, he determined that this one he came to meet in Shenzhen today was the one he needed.
Prepare to use money offensive to open this kind of person's mouth, and agree to meet in Shenzhen to talk about some things that can't be said on the Internet.
An inconspicuous restaurant.
In a certain private room on the third floor, Qin Jin directly opened the door and saw the middle-aged man in front of him (the crossbow seller), and threw out the prepared crossbow requirements and the number of arrows.
50 hand crossbows of several types. (Disassembled delivery)
30 compound bows.
100,000 wooden arrows! (Steel arrowheads, shipped separately, can be manually assembled later)
100,000 steel arrows! (Arrowheads are not sharpened to meet regulations)
It also requires that some key parts of hand crossbows and compound bows can be replaced by themselves.
After the replacement, the power can instantly reach the level of eating public meals!
Even though the middle-aged bald weapon shop owner had long known the general needs of this customer.
When he really heard the needs, his eyes almost popped out.
Perhaps accustomed to working in this industry, he quickly adjusted his expression and took out his mobile phone to calculate.
A few minutes later, he said:
"It can be done! But hand crossbows and compound bows will be delivered in different parts each time, and to different addresses. The arrow shafts and arrowheads will also be transported separately. I will specify the location, and you drive or send someone to pick up the goods."
"One hand crossbow is 10,000, one compound bow is 15,000, one wooden arrow is 3 yuan, one steel arrow is 12 yuan, plus my risk fee, the total price is three million!"
Qin Jin weighed it in his mind and felt that there was no problem, so he directly accepted it.
He only plans to use these weapons for the initial transition of the doomsday.
After the Mutation Night, the order will collapse, and he will definitely find a way to get firearms!
After the two discussed some details again, they paid a deposit of one million on the spot to confirm the transaction!
