The second floor of the Louvre, inside the office.
When Lin Yi ntioned taking the refugees away.
The short and fat bureaucrat struggled to put on a troubled look, even the fat on his face jiggled rhythmically.
"Well...you know, refugees are valuable resources, but if it’s twenty pounds of food per person...I think I can let a few residents go."
The short and fat bureaucrat spoke hesitantly, each word seed to be squeezed out through clenched teeth, as if making this decision required cutting off a piece of his flesh.
Lin Yi sneered: "Ten pounds for one person. You should know so camps are fretting over how to dispose of these burdens, they can’t wait to offload them on for free."
"Ahem, alright...let’s settle it at ten pounds, since you are my major rchant, after all."
The short and fat bureaucrat put on a face, showing he made significant concessions just for Lin Yi.
Then suddenly, as if recalling sothing, he offered: "Uh...should you be interested...there’s a high-end establishnt for Professionals. The girls inside are very beautiful, they can work continuously for five hours, even longer without tiring!"
As known, once ordinary people beco Professionals, regardless of gender, their desires grow stronger.
People in the Louvre quickly discovered this, hence they set up a specialized establishnt to serve Professionals.
They carefully selected the prettiest won, helped them beco Professionals, and boosted their Endurance attributes, just to better satisfy the guests’ needs.
Of course, the service charges were exorbitantly high, affordable only by elite Professionals.
Faced with such an enticing proposal, Lin Yi didn’t want to decline, but unfortunately, there was just too much to handle today.
Additionally, with lanie monitoring the caras, every move was under her watchful eye...
"Let’s talk about it next ti... I’ll send my n to recruit the refugees first, and co back to place the potatoes later."
Having said that, Lin Yi left the office.
At this mont, Chen Youyou, Solomon, and the dirty Sophie stood in the corridor, curiously observing everything around.
After all, they were never allowed on the second floor before.
Lin Yi led them back to the refugee camp on the square while conveying his recruitnt plan along the way.
"Chen Youyou, I need you to find so professional talents, including but not limited to electrical engineers, tallurgical experts, various professional engineers, and don’t forget to find a master brewer.
Take this...Sophie friend of yours along, let her give you a hand.
Solomon, your task is to recruit Warriors. I’m sure you’re clear about the standards and requirents, be strict.
No ti to waste, act imdiately!"
"Understood, boss." they both shouted at the sa ti.
The announcent of the recruitnt threw the refugee camp into chaos, almost everyone surged towards them like a tide.
"I used to love hunting, I can use a rifle!"
"I’m the best Counter-Strike player in the Paris Athletic Club!"
"Take , I have extensive slingshot experience!"
People shouted, jostled, and argued, the scene turned into a chaotic ss.
Until Solomon couldn’t help but shout loudly, a stream of fluent French curse words burst out, the refugees finally quieted down.
Chen Youyou managed to line everyone up into two queues, one for those wanting to be Warriors, the other for professional talents.
Lin Yi stood at a distance, watching silently.
To his surprise, he didn’t expect so many among them were eager to take up arms and fight for a chance of survival for themselves and their families.
However, the reality was not optimistic.
Within the Louvre, many who could really fight t untily ends while searching for food for their families.
Moreover, there was a strict rule of not distributing weapons to civilians, under such constraints, people with potential combat skills were buried.
Therefore, recruitnt had to prioritize those with military experience, others were ruthlessly rejected.
On the other hand, Chen Youyou’s recruitnt went smoothly, as most had so skills, the waiting line for selection was ten tis longer than Solomon’s.
Recruitnt t with one unexpected incident.
Many who weren’t chosen gathered together, attempting to "prove themselves."
But Solomon was no pushover, especially on his first mission for the boss.
He directly beat one, swore at another, and kicked a third, quickly calming the chaos.
After this, the recruitnt process proceeded smoothly.
Lin Yi had no more concerns.
He snapped his fingers, signaling a military man who’d been waiting. Judging from the rank insignia on his shoulder, he seed to be an officer.
The officer respectfully asked: "Mr. Lin, any commands?"
"Go place the potatoes."
"Please, follow ."
Lin Yi nodded and followed the officer to a warehouse on the second floor of the Louvre.
He dismissed the officer, then teleported five tons of potatoes from the Shelter to here.
With the task completed, Lin Yi lingered for a while, then exited the warehouse, heading back to the refugee camp square.
At that ti, the recruitnt was in full swing, the scene crowded and noisy.
Not wanting to drag out the recruitnt too long, Lin Yi let his n wrap up after about two hours.
Needless to say, those not recruited were quite disappointed.
But at Lin Yi’s prompt, Chen Youyou assured them they’d return within a week.
This promise reignited a flicker of hope in the eyes of those not yet chosen.
After recruitnt, Lin Yi started counting the numbers.
This ti, they recruited fifty Warriors and their one hundred twenty family mbers; ninety professional talents and their seventy-six family mbers.
There was another neutral piece of news - they found two who could brew beer, but they weren’t very professional.
In total, this Louvre recruitnt plan recruited three hundred twenty-six people.
Once Lin Yi and the short and fat officer settled all costs, the latter was overjoyed—using free food to get rid of all useless people was a huge profit!
As the two were about to part ways.
Lin Yi suddenly spoke: "One more thing."
Already a dozen ters away, the short and fat bureaucrat had to stop, turned back blankly, and asked: "What is it?"
"Not long ago, I saw the True God Brotherhood had a battle with the Paradise Palace. The cultists were utterly defeated, and a rebellion occurred within Paradise Palace, though the rebels failed to overthrow Qiong’s rule."
The short and fat bureaucrat’s expression beca extrely solemn, he looked at the businessman: "What do you want to exchange for this information?"
"Nothing at all, except those won stole my beloved motorcycle."
Lin Yi finished speaking and left with a hundred or so people.
"Interesting...very interesting..."
The short and fat bureaucrat muttered to himself, then hurried back to the office and picked up the phone to make a call...
