145. Chapter 144 Stop talking, brother. I'm about to break down.

  after everyone's careful operation.

The other octopus monsters were also locked in the jar. Although the operation was different from Suqi's, it was still completed.

"good."

The interviewer tapped the table gently.

"You do need to be more capable than those people to be employed. But I have to remind you that these items are only the lowest-level containment items in the company. There are many more dangerous items that are not that simple."

"In addition, the hourly wage is 100 Cybercoins. If you can contain higher levels of pollutants, your wages can be increased."

Several people's eyes lit up slightly.

Su Qi glanced at them.

Look at how useless you are.

This is also bright?

There is a lollipop outside, 199 Cybercoins, you guys are bright as a hammer.

And the so-called job promotion is just a pie in the sky, and you will also encounter more dangerous inmates.

"."

Under the arrangement, everyone began to enter the company and prepared to officially start their working life.

Ye Yu Ling Feng whispered,

"Remember, the most important thing for us right now is not only making money, but also improving our status. At present, nearly a thousand other players are also acting like us. In the early stages, everyone is competing to make money faster, but more importantly, after their positions are promoted, they will have the opportunity to make more money."

"Then there is consumption. It is not clear what items or categories of consumption will increase points the most." He fell into deep thought: "I am still not clear about this information."

Su Qi said softly, "Luxury goods."

"Huh?" Everyone was stunned.

"In this city, some people do not regard money as money, squander it lavishly, live an extremely extravagant and decadent life, and enjoy luxury goods that are overpriced. At the same time, there are also people who cannot afford rent, utilities, have no savings, do not have enough food or warm clothes, and are unemployed and facing poverty that deprives them of their identity."

"Busy, yet inactive."

Su Qi said to himself: "This is the extreme distance unique to cyberpunk."

"."

This is the case for every one of their players starting out, not to mention most of the city's existence.

"It's hard for me to explain, but I always have a heart-wrenching feeling." The female player with a ponytail sighed.

The middle-aged man also said quietly: "This reminds me of something."

"Brother, stop talking. I admit that I am about to break down."

Little Fatty was about to cry: "Can we just play games? At least we can forget all this."

Ye Yu Ling Feng looked at the people who were aroused by Su Qi's words. He fell silent and looked at the place they were about to arrive. He had to make another move: "We are here. It seems we have to start working to earn money."

"."

Su Qi and the dejected crowd were led into the so-called warehouse. The space here was huge and had employees with the same position as others. They were also different. It seemed that they were indeed from different worlds as the interviewer said.

Each one is also divided into areas, with transmission channels and a holographic screen, seemingly communicating with customers from all walks of life.

"Go work, work hard, work hard, one day we will become successful people." The little fat brother clenched his fists and encouraged.

"I went, too."

"Come on, everyone! If anything happens, come and seek help immediately. We are all in the same boat now."

"good!"

Ye Yu Lingfeng breathed a sigh of relief as he watched everyone recover a little. After all, everyone was trying their best. In this city with thousands of players competing, nothing was certain.

No one knows what will happen next.

"If Su is busy, then I will go to work."

"Okay, go ahead."

Su Qi watched Ye Yu Lingfeng walk away, but he was not in a hurry to return to his workstation, even though the information showed that his salary would be deducted if he was away for five minutes.

500 CyberCoins per time.

But he was not in a hurry.

Su Qi walked around and observed some of the items being transported at each workstation, and he felt a little dazed.

"I seem to understand now. Could it be that this is the transfer station for the things Russell bought?"

In one of the original team copies, a spaceship loaded with all kinds of weird things and pollutants flew to Apocalypse.

And all these things on the ship are tributes to the Sunset Spirit King.

Now the source seems to have finally been found.

"Okay, let's get started." Su Qi also returned to his workstation. He was still in debt, so he planned to get some start-up capital first and then see the situation.

but.

Even in such a large company, the working hours are not something that ordinary people can cope with. They work 5 hours in the morning, take a break for lunch at noon, and work 9 hours in the afternoon, and they also have to work overtime.

"I work 14 hours a day."

Su Qi also discovered something.

That is, no matter what position they are in or how poor they are, everyone dresses decently, in a suit, tie, leather shoes, a round-necked shirt and work pants.

It seems impossible for ragged homeless people to exist in this city. Everyone you see is dressed neatly and cleanly, with a kind of beauty that expresses their beauty.

"Is this because of the subconscious rules of the industry and the city?"

Su Qi had a rough judgment.

"In this city, appearance represents image and can even affect job interviews. It also has to fit the cyberpunk temperament."

This is also why.

Even if they have no money, everyone has to rent a decent set of clothes, and not just for interviews. Even after the interview, they will not return it, but wear it in all aspects of daily life.

It seems like he is trying to prove to others that he has a job and is living a good life.

Suqi also started working.

The work process is simple. Strange or contaminated objects will be sent to the transmission entrance with labels indicating their strange characteristics, and then they will be processed and packaged.

Contact the customer, write down the address, and send it out by express delivery.

"It's almost like an assembly line, except there are more complicated procedures, more threats to life, and no life insurance fund."

At this time.

At a workstation behind Su Qi was a bearded middle-aged man, covered in cheap, modified prosthetic equipment that flashed with electric current and unstable light.

He suddenly screamed as a bloody thorn flower suddenly pierced his eye!

"Help."

"puff!"

The thorn flower went straight through.

The uncle's struggling body gradually slowed down, and only the electric current that had not yet dissipated was flowing in the machine, causing his body to twitch.

"Send it away, clean it up, and then hire the next packer."

The person in charge received the instructions quickly and came to handle everything very skillfully.

Once seriously injured or even killed by pollutants or monsters.

There will be no compensation.

No contracts, just cold hard cash.

As for the rules of this city?

Sorry, they are to protect the powerful, the rich, and the capital, and have nothing to do with ordinary people.

"And" Su Qi looked at the question mark on the uncle's body.

Many people install prosthetics not for the sake of looking good, following the trend, or seeking convenience. They just sell their own organs and tissues in exchange for money, and then install some worthless and cheap prosthetics to barely make a living.

"Which one is stronger, the pollution dungeon or the city in front of us?"

Work is ongoing.

Other workstations are carefully handling pollutants or anomalies to avoid the same situation as that uncle.

Only Su Qi's side was extremely fast.

No matter whether it is weird or pollutant, in his spiritual eyes, it is just like a good baby. As long as you don't stimulate it or make it react, it will be no different from an ordinary assembly line.

so.

Su Qi quickly completed the day's target and was able to do more than ten times more.

But.

"Okay, it's starting to get boring."

Su Qi doesn't like things that remain unchanged, but he can use this ability to gradually advance and become the king among workers.

Common name!

Super worker.

But it was of no use.

And he couldn't slack off, because there were obviously a lot of electronic eyes and holographic detection equipment watching them.

At this time.

"That guy is very talented."

The interviewer seemed to be paying attention to this as well. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said softly, "You can let him advance."

Su Qi also received the message quickly and was asked to go to another area.

"Congratulations, citizen Su Buxian. Your position in the company has been upgraded from lower to D-level, and your hourly Cybercoin salary has been increased to 200."

hehe.

Finally I can buy two more lollipops.

Ye Yu Ling Feng and the others were stunned for a moment and looked at Su Qi:

"So fast?"

Su Qi said calmly: "I'll go up and check the situation first. You guys work hard and I'll find you a sister-in-law next year."

"."

Pah!

The people at other workstations all looked at him with envy and jealousy, and then worked even harder.

The promotion system is clear and guarantees enthusiasm to a certain extent.

But with this city's outrageous consumer desire and crazy conditions, money will always flow to the top.

at the same time.

When Su Qi stepped into the next area, he also received a reminder.

"Be aware that you will be dealing with requests from higher level clients."

"There will also be more dangers."

Interestingly, it seems that if you continue to be promoted, you will have access to higher-level and even more information.

However, the screen provided by the company can only be used for communicating with customers. It cannot be used for playing games, searching, or doing other unnecessary things. Each employee's communicator will also be disconnected from the Internet, leaving almost no chance for information leakage or detection.

But Su Qi also has a way, which is to chat.

Customers who can send or buy things here are considered middle-class people with a certain amount of money.

After all, the gap in the middle is too big.

He would often guide the other party through his words, get the information he wanted, and even earn some tips and high praise.

"Meow, why do I look like someone who's just there to chat with me?"

This half day passed like this.

There is an hour's break at noon. After all, people are made of iron and food is steel. Even if their company is black-hearted, they cannot not give employees time to eat.

certainly.

As Su Qi expected, the company cafeteria was not free either.

All food costs money.

"What the hell!" The fat guy held his plate and stared at the cafeteria's mobile window with wide eyes: "A piece of steak costs a fucking 1,500 Cybercoins! All my day's wages are not enough to buy one."

"Even the regular meatball soup costs 700!"

"Is this really a highly developed city of the future? Why do I feel so cold in my heart?"

Su Qi said calmly: "Don't look at it, that's not the food prepared for us."

He pointed to the other side: "That's it."

On the other side of the cafeteria, there was a large crowd of people, and what they were buying was not food, but various nutritional mixtures, mucus, and edible compounds that could make them full.

"That one is cheap, you can buy it for 100 Cybercoins. It doesn't seem to have any other advantages except that it can maintain the standard of life activities."

"????"

"I can't do this job for a day!"

Su Qi added: "Think about it, you have an old mother and children to take care of, why don't you do it? If you don't do it, there are plenty of people who will do it."

"." The ponytailed female player was stunned and said faintly: "Wait. I don't have any children to raise now."

The middle-aged man said sadly: "I have! It's broken, I am also going to break through."

Ye Yu Ling Feng coughed and said, "Okay, let's stop talking about this and go buy some potions first. After all, we only have an hour to rest."

He also quietly pulled Su Qi: "Don't provoke them. Even though it's unintentional, it will still affect them."

Su Qi didn't answer.

He just wanted to say.

Who said I didn't mean it?

The five of them quickly bought the mixture, and the fat guy even put a piece of the mixture on the huge plate in a serious manner.

"What are you doing?"

"I was thinking, what if it tastes good?"

Su Qi just wanted to say that he was thinking too much.

As expected, after eating, the little fat man's expression changed slightly: "Why is it tasteless? Although I feel full to a certain extent, this feeling is so fake."

"That's normal. If this thing is delicious, who would still yearn for high-quality food?" Su Qi said softly.

He now understood why a lollipop could be sold for more than a hundred Cybercoins.

Food is the epitome of extravagant consumption.

Everyone sighed.

"Alas, isn't this a fantasy universe?"

"Why do I feel like my fantasy has been shattered?"

Ye Yu Ling Feng coughed and said, "Let's talk about promotion. Now that we are proficient, we can speed up the process and we should be able to be promoted to the next level soon."

"By the way, Su Buxian, do you have any experience to teach us? You are already D-level now, right?"

Su Qi held up two fingers: "First, my technique is difficult to teach, so you better be steady."

"Second, I'm now at C level, making 500 Cybercoins per hour."

Everyone's eyes widened: "You're really going too far! Are you cheating?"

It sounds so realistic and sad, but in the end, he works harder than anyone else and gets promoted faster than anyone else!

What's the difference between this and secretly studying involution in a dormitory! Bastard!

Ye Yu Lingfeng's eyes lit up instead: "If this continues, Su Buxian, it seems that you will be able to enter a higher level of the company, and then gain advantages, and can also help us."

"That." Su Qi shook his head. "I'm afraid not. In this position, I'm afraid the best I can get is C-level. B-level people are usually small supervisors, and A-level people are big leaders."

"These two levels require status, connections and background, and you also need to pay money to have a chance."

He paused and said, "In short, there are various restrictions. It's not that easy to break them."

The three of them sighed silently.

"However, I feel relieved when I think that other players are similar to us."

After all, no matter what, everyone is starting from the same starting line, and whether you are a dragon or a tiger, you have to lie down here.

Su Qi didn't say anything.

It's hard to say.

The fact that every company can stand in this cyber city means that they have understood the rules. Most of them are extremely black-hearted. At the same time, a part of the powerful class, the real capital families, forces, and organizations are still entrenched in it.

There are always some players who will take an unconventional approach and choose to contact these powerful people to see if they can get opportunities or higher positions.

but.

Not in a hurry.

This is only the first day, and the system has not yet announced any competition content. Now the main focus is for players to collect information, accumulate cybercoins, and gain some starting advantages.

soon.

Everyone has returned to their workstations, and CyberCoins will be deducted for being late, leaving early, leaving without permission, and slacking off.

Everyone is busy.

Su Qi also returned to his place. He has now reached level C. Although his salary has increased a lot, he is still a courier worker.

but.

None of this matters.

Importantly, he also had access to some high-level clients, who might not be truly wealthy and powerful, but were clearly not related to the common man.

The things they buy or send have also obviously changed. Although there are many more outrageous and dangerous items, there are also some antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and even useless small items.

at the same time.

The price is ridiculously high too.

Almost all of them start at 1 million.

"A second-generation rich man who lives a life of luxury. Thinking of this, I deserve to give Ye Shou two punches."

Ye Shou, who had just come out from somewhere and was about to enter the competition, sneezed.

?

The employees simply don't dare to steal these things. Once discovered... no, it is bound to be discovered and there will be only one result: being stripped of their citizenship and being burdened with huge debts.

Then they are sold to human trafficking organizations.

"continue."

Su Qi was also continuing to obtain information. He had a general understanding of the various powerful classes in this city and some organizational forces.

But it is difficult to get in touch with them in depth.

After all, once he has this active tendency, it will be detected immediately and a warning will be given.

"Really strict defense" This made Su Qi a little difficult to start. He could get the other party's preferences and interests through [? ], and then contact them, but with this restriction, unless the customer actively requested it, it would be difficult to continue.

And at this time.

However, there is a customer online with the ID [花开富贵].

"?"

Does this ID look familiar? Which wealthy auntie is online?

"Attention, employee No. 93123, this customer is extremely important. Please be careful with your words and communication. Any behavior that explores her privacy is not allowed!"

Su Qi: "."

He looked at what the other party bought, which was cosmetics, and the price was ridiculously high. It was indeed a time of great wealth and fortune. He wondered how many points he could earn by buying this thing.

Robbing a bank seems less appealing than robbing a rich woman?

but.

There are limitations though.

But it's rare for Su Qi to come across such a big client, so he still wants to see if he can find some opportunities.
