46: Chapter 46: Warm two plates of wine and a plate of fennel seeds 46: Chapter 46: Warm two plates of wine and a plate of fennel seeds He actually recognized as the president of the Giant Umbrella Chamber of Comrce at first glance.
Who exactly is this youth?
Behind the mask, an aged face, expressions shifting like the weather, but having tussled in the business world for decades, Carlo Joy had seen it all and quickly adjusted his emotions.
“How is it that I, as the president, cannot co personally to greet you?”
Carlo Joy personally stepped forward, partly because he placed great importance on this mission, and partly because he wanted to see what the youth Tela had ntioned was truly like.
“It’s not that, I know you value this task highly.
But…”
Yang Yu’s words halted mid-sentence.
He couldn’t very well say that he had initially mistaken Carlo for an ordinary old man, thinking their chamber was too minor, hence sparing no one, not even an elderly man.
The atmosphere suddenly turned awkward.
Ultimately, the reason for this atmosphere was that Yang Yu’s professional habits had kicked in.
As a professional broadcaster, even if he wasn’t good at it, he had to master so slick talk and fierce words, and he often made jests about NPCs during live-stream gaming.
However, in the ga, such words were not to be spoken directly.
Especially not to a chamber president—to openly mock his chamber’s size.
“I’m sorry, that was an improper remark.
President Carlo, to see you still working so hard at your age, truly, it’s tough.
Your sincerity, I have indeed received it, and you can rest assured this mission is in good hands.
After its completion, I hope you can develop your chamber well.
Of course, expanding the chamber is a good thing, but not all thods should be used; do not easily let the chamber lose its reputation.
This is an opportunity, but I hope there will never be a second one like this.
If you don’t recognize it, one day you’ll be caught just like them.
Take care of yourself.”
You’d better expand your chamber well, otherwise I won’t be able to buy much with my discount when the ti cos, and I will be upset.
Also, absolutely no embezzlent or corruption.
By the ti I return, who knows how long it will be, I don’t want to see your chamber closed, the discount vouchers useless elsewhere.
Carlo did not know Yang Yu’s true thoughts; he rely pondered deeply the implications between the lines of the youth’s words.
“Whether your chamber will end up rotten like Silver Orchid Comrce or not, as the chamber president, you have put the business before all else.
By eliminating the Silver Orchid Comrce, the chamber will experience unprecedented growth.
Handing such an important task to an outsider, can you really be at peace?”
The answer was clear, definitely not.
Otherwise, Carlo Joy wouldn’t have co here in person to confirm.
So that’s why when he first t , he comnted, ‘Your chamber has no more people?’…
He didn’t think the person in charge of reception was just a normal old man, and the chamber had no one capable; he saw through being the president and mocked our chamber for entrusting such an important matter to an outsider.
Carlo’s gaze turned lancholic.
It wasn’t that their chamber lacked individuals skilled in infiltration; rather, those people served only their own families, which ultimately forced him to choose the adventurer infiltration plan.
A youngster actually, so eloquently and subtly, reminded and mocked ; entrusting this mission to him, perhaps he really could complete it.
Initially, Carlo was prepared for the mission to fail and had even considered using this to request other families within the chamber to send help.
Now, it seed, it was ti to think about what to do after the mission was completed.
After all, if his own knife skills were poor, he couldn’t bla it on the knife being too sharp.
“It’s fine, it’s fine.
Thank you, Mr.
Yang Yu, for providing us with such valuable advice.
Let us discuss in more detail the plan to infiltrate Silver Orchid Comrce.”
“There’s no need to discuss.
We’ve studied it thoroughly over the past few days.
If there’s no new information, we’ll start imdiately.
Many unclear matters can only be understood after reaching the research facility.”
These few days, Yang Yu had been desperately leveling, hardly able to wait.
Especially since he still had a “source eradication” task reward to claim which was worth a total of 100 free attribute points and 50 skill points.
With them, Yang Yu could rise to the upper echelons of civilian power.
Just a few steps more, and he could beco a pivotal force in this world.
“Very well.” Carlo nodded, leading Yang Yu and Bai Jin deep into an alley to a covert underground facility.
The research facility was very concealed; above it was just an ordinary, unvisited noodle shop.
In a corner of the noodle shop was a hidden path, and by following it, one would see an introduction office that looked similar yet starkly different from the noodle shop.
Many from Silver Orchid Comrce had been referred through this underground introduction office.
The staff at this introduction office had already been bribed by the Giant Umbrella Chamber of Comrce, and two guards from Silver Orchid Comrce’s research facility, who had resigned two days earlier, had also been bribed.
To find new guards, Silver Orchid Comrce’s personnel departnt would surely co here.
After whispering a few words with the shopkeeper, Carlo quickly departed, leaving Yang Yu and Bai Jin dressed in worn adventurer clothes, sitting in the hall waiting.
To appear more downcast, Yang Yu had the staff warm two dishes of liquor and ordered a plate of Fennel Seeds, quietly waiting inside the introduction office for the big fish to bite.
After an unknown amount of ti, a man in a gray-brown long robe with a delicate long sword at his waist appeared in the introduction office.
Without looking around, he walked directly to the uncle at the counter and said in a low voice, “The usual.”
The uncle at the introduction office impatiently dug at his ear, unenthused he said, “Again?
How many tis has it been?”
The robed man apologetically said, “You know, we offer high compensation, but the risk is also extrely high.
If we go to a normal introduction office, news about our place will quickly leak, and we don’t want to be labeled as a man-eating enterprise, so we can only ask you again.
Just a few more months, and once we solve the safety issues at our plant, we won’t need to co over anymore.
We really need your help for production this ti.”
Saying this, the robed man thrust sothing into the introduction office uncle’s hand, who weighed it and imdiately beca more amiable, smilingly said,
“Since you’re being so polite, I’ll do my best to help you.
However, I must tell you, though most of them are black workers here, don’t treat them like they’re less than human.
If we keep losing black workers, it will be hard for us to continue.”
“I know, I know,” the robed man said with a cheery smile.
The uncle at the introduction office pulled out a stack of resus from a drawer and began to carefully look through them, muttering under his breath, “You always ask for such high standards; there aren’t many black workers left who et the requirents.”
Fluttering through, the uncle at the introduction office picked out two resus and placed them in front of the robed man.
“Here.
Do these two work?”
The robed man picked up the resus and scrutinized them carefully.
One was a very young-looking boy, and the other was a girl with ssy hair.
“These…these two, they don’t look very reliable.
Are you sure they’ll work?”
