Chapter 32 I wonder what kind of factories will be opened in the living area?

"Really? The mercenary army is recruiting ten thousand people and will be equipped with the best weapons? Hahaha, this is a huge blessing, I must join!"

"I'm a retired special forces soldier, my skills haven't diminished at all. If anyone's joining first, it's me!"

"I wonder what factories will be set up in the living area? Even we women can have jobs now!"

"Haha, at least we don't have to risk our lives outside and can be self-sufficient! Compared to the survivors outside, our treatment is really too good!"

The residents discussed with faces full of anticipation.

Among them, a girl wearing glasses raised her hand and asked, "Excuse me, what factories is the base planning to build? When exactly will they open? What can we girls do? How many positions can be provided?"

"Our base has a factory park in each living area!" Ji Yan introduced, "Each park is divided into two to three factories, and all kinds of equipment and production lines are ready-made; they can start production after a little repair and adjustment."

"Currently, we can open candy factories, beverage factories, clothing factories, bread factories, food factories, military supply factories, daily necessities factories, pharmaceutical factories, and a series of other factories. It is estimated that they can accommodate about 40,000 people, and most will prioritize hiring women!"

"Really? That's great!"

Everyone was once again filled with surprise and excitement!

This was indeed good news.

At least this gave many helpless women a chance to be self-sufficient.

This way, they wouldn't have to risk going out scavenging and fighting Zombies!

At the same time, if many men chose to join the mercenary army, their families could also join the factories, which would relieve their worries.

As for the specific details, Ji Yan still needed to plan!

But this could be considered giving everyone hope.

The mercenary army is recruiting ten thousand people, the major factories are recruiting forty thousand people, and places like the living area's canteens, cleaning departments, and plantations can provide about five or six thousand job positions.

Plus, minors under eighteen account for about 20%!

Hospitals and schools also need to recruit some people.

The remaining people who have no work and can only go out and fight Zombies are probably just over twenty thousand.

Most of these people are young and strong, so there is no worry that they will starve to death.

This means that the vast majority of people in the entire base have proper jobs, which will bring peace of mind to everyone and greatly increase the stability of the base.

"Mr. Ji, may I ask a question?"

At this moment, a burly man at a nearby table raised his hand with a booming voice.

This man was almost two meters tall, tall and strong like a grizzly bear, and his muscles were like cast bronze and iron, looking very fierce.

"Oh?"

Ji Yan was secretly surprised; there was such a fierce person in his base?

Just looking at his appearance, this guy was definitely stronger than anyone in the Guard Team, and at a glance, you could tell that he had definitely been a soldier and had killed people.

Of course, when it comes to combat power!

Any soldier in the Guard Team could instantly kill him.

Therefore, although Ji Yan was surprised, he didn't pay too much attention, only smilingly asked, "Do you have any questions?"

"It's like this!" The burly man explained, "My name is Li Tiezhu. I used to be a soldier, and I'm confident I'm qualified to join your mercenary army."

"But if I have a child, only five years old, her mother died in this Zombie Storm, leaving just her and me to depend on each other."

"If I join the mercenary army, how will she be settled? Does our base have places like kindergartens?"

After he finished speaking, a girl as delicate as a pink jade carving appeared from behind Li Tiezhu.

She looked at Ji Yan timidly, her eyes flickering, clearly having been quite frightened during this period.

At the same time, this question also attracted the attention of many people.

Many people present actually had the same difficulty, which was their children!

The disaster broke out suddenly, and many of them escaped with their children alone. Now, if they work, they can't take care of their children, and if they don't work, they can't survive. It's truly a dilemma!

"Little sister, come here!"

Ji Yan smiled and waved to the adorable little girl.

"Xiaoya, go. Mr. Ji isn't a bad person," Li Tiezhu encouraged.

"Mhm, mhm!"

The little girl nodded timidly, finally shuffling over to Ji Yan's side.

"What's your name? Have you eaten?"

"Here, eat mine!"

Ji Yan rubbed her hair, and the little girl's nervous heart gradually relaxed.

She said weakly, "Hello, Uncle, my name is Li Xiaoya!"

"What a lovely name!" Ji Yan picked her up and then smiled at Li Tiezhu, saying, "I believe everyone should know that our base provides a monthly subsidy for minors. These points are enough for children to have food and clothing, and grow up happily."

"At the same time, we also have a dedicated school area on the 10th floor, which not only has nurseries and kindergartens suitable for young children, but also primary schools, junior high schools, high schools, and universities, and we hire various excellent teachers to provide comprehensive education and training for our children."

"If you want to join the mercenary army, your child can live in the kindergarten. If you have free time, you can pick her up to take care of her. Combat training and raising a child are completely non-conflicting."

"Moreover, the mercenary army offers excellent benefits, including free food and accommodation, and a guaranteed monthly reward of over five thousand points. Those who perform exceptionally well in training and combat will receive even more rewards!"

"Really?"

Li Tiezhu's eyes lit up, unable to suppress his continuous pleasant surprises.

"Thank you, Mr. Ji, thank you!" He said with a laugh, "I have a big appetite; I can eat three to five people's worth of food by myself. If the mercenary army provides meals, I must sign up immediately."

"Hahaha!"

Laughter erupted from the crowd.

The atmosphere in the canteen immediately became more harmonious.

No matter what, Ji Yan's humane decision was good for everyone, and for parents with children, it was something that brought tears to their eyes and filled them with gratitude.

After all, children are everyone's biggest concern!

In the apocalypse, they were stretched thin and truly didn't know how to take care of their children while also trying to survive.

At least after leaving A1 Shelter, they would never find such a humane place again!
