Resurrection Empire

Ren Zhong: "..."

Headache.

Oh heavens!

Could you grant me a few more subordinates like Yujin?

Look at Yujin, he never has these unnecessary concerns.

Yujin is now also a Second Level Gunsmith, but he never worries about these things; all he does is give his all to execute every order I give.

At the same time, when he doesn't have my instructions, he trains hard to improve his skills.

Really saves me a lot of trouble.

Fortunately, Wen Lei salvaged my gradually worsening mood.

He offered a new explanation.

"Unity means all of us must be united. Tension means we must remain vigilant at all times. Seriousness is about our work attitude. Liveliness refers to being flexible and adaptable in our problem-solving, like Brother Ren's methods of dealing with the Ruined Beasts."

Ren Zhong silently breathed a sigh of relief.

Good, Wen Lei, as always, is reliable.

It seems forcing refined ideas without a solid ideological foundation will just lead to misunderstandings.

Returning to Starfire Town, the stern-faced Ren Zhong paid a visit to Yujin's house, seeing the elderly woman there.

He handed over the handwritten letter from Yujin to the elderly woman.

A moment later, the elderly woman threw the letter into a newly purchased high-temperature electric furnace and burned it to ashes, sighing as she said, "Mr. Ren, thank you."

Ren Zhong: "Why are you thanking me?"

The elderly woman smiled warmly, "In his letter, Yujin said he takes pride in being able to help you, Mr. Ren."

Hearing this, Ren Zhong shook his head, "Though my interactions with people from the Qi Mountain Tribe were pleasant, it's still an unfamiliar place. I put him at risk, so I can't accept your gratitude."

Originally, Ren Zhong only instructed Yujin to clarify the truth about his fake death to prevent needless worry for his mother, but he hadn't read the letter's contents.

Elderly Woman: "Yujin is someone you can trust, Mr. Ren. He's actually smart, just unlucky to be born to me. If he were born into a good family, he might be an outstanding gunsmith by now."

"No, I think it's his fortune. Without you, there would be no him."

Elderly Woman: "In the past, it was misfortune, but now it's become fortune. Before, I just wanted him to survive, but now he's even found a purpose for living. Seeing him striving for a clear goal is something I never dared to dream of."

After exchanging a glance with the elderly woman for a moment, Ren Zhong smiled, "Hmm."

"Mr. Ren, rest assured, I won't let anyone catch on."

"But also, don't give up easily. Even though life is short, family concerns can determine Yujin's will to survive."

"Hmm, I understand. Mr. Ren, you really understand human nature."

Ren Zhong smiled but did not explain.

How could he not understand?

The last time he was leaving Starfire Town, this elderly woman nearly slit her own throat in secret to force Yujin to follow him.

At her age, what more effective way is there to express the pain of losing a child than by ending her own life?

Even though she had listened to Yujin's instructions and didn't board the life-risking vehicle of the Mengdu Group, if she found the right opportunity, allowing Yujin to leave without worries, she wouldn't hesitate.

Ren Zhong's words were to let her transform her understanding of concerns into a motivation to live on.

...

That afternoon, the news of Ren Zhong's team losing members quietly spread among the lower-class wastelanders.

Yang Bingzhong didn't pay much attention to this trivial matter.

It's quite normal for lower-level Professionals to lose members during hunts.

President Yang only called Ren Zhong to his office, saying, "The company relocation has been finalized, it's in five days. If you have any business to hand over, deal with it in advance. There are some bad rumors about the Pu Cha matter, and it won't be easy for Starfire Town to pass this time."

"In short, I suggest you use this information gap to sell off all your assets in town that you took over from Lin Wang at a low price. There are always some foolish wastelanders who will take over. Better to trick them out of those Contribution Points than let them evaporate in their accounts."

In the office, Yang Bingzhong, with a knowing look, instructed in this manner.

Ren Zhong put on a grateful expression, "Truly, Mr. Yang! You have such thorough considerations!"

At the same time, inwardly he cursed, not surprised that it's you, Mr. Yang, killing someone and then using their skin for a coat, you really are incredible.

Yang Bingzhong: "Hahaha, it's alright. Ren Zhong, although you're good at stock trading, you're still young, it's normal to lack some life experience."
