Beckland, Jowood District.

Vogt walked down the street like a walking corpse, his expression was numb, his expression was dull, as if he had lost his goal in life, only the "fierce" color in his eyes from time to time, which made people feel that he was still "alive".

Originally the owner of a small factory in Beckland, Vogt also owned some shares in several upstream and downstream enterprises, and although he was not wealthy in a metropolis like the capital, he was quite good among the middle class, and even bought a small estate in the suburbs for vacation.

The wife is beautiful and gentle, the eldest son is handsome and talented, and the younger son is not very old, but he is also very sensible, and the family of four is happy.

However, after the Great Smog of Beckland, everything changed!

This is not because his factory has been affected by the "smog...... On the contrary, because the factory site is not far from the church of the Steam Church, most of the workers in his factory are fine, and only a few of them have been infected with pneumonia, but they have since recovered with the help of the church.

What made his career take a sharp turn was actually the "Pollution Control Act" introduced after the Great Smog Incident, and the "Kingdom Air Pollution Investigation Commission" that led to this bill!

Because of pollution control, his factory, as well as many upstream and downstream enterprises, were forced to shut down...... That's okay, but the new regulations that "anthracite" must be used as fuel pushed him into the abyss.

Not to mention that "anthracite" has increased production costs, making his profits even more scarce because he already relies on price advantages to occupy a certain share of the market...... Just to say that burning "anthracite" requires the replacement of all steam equipment is not something he can afford!

And the liquidated damages he had to pay due to the shutdown and the bank loan near the settlement date gave him a headache.

To this end, he even sold his estate, sold his house in the city, and moved his family into a rental apartment in the bridge area.

But the nightmare is not over, after barely scraping together enough to repay the debt, the bank that was originally quite "friendly" to him refuses to lend him again!

Vogt later figured out that it was not because of his credibility, but because Prince Edsak, who had been standing behind him in the first place, had also died in the Great Smog......

Yes, Vogt's estate was much smaller a year ago, because his eldest son Alex was favored by Prince Edsak for some reason, and after becoming the other party's assistant, he obtained a large loan and gradually developed the business.

Unfortunately, the eldest son Alex died inexplicably before the Great Haze, and His Royal Highness the Prince was also assassinated in the Great Haze......

The succession of bad news, coupled with the introduction of the "pollution control bill" and the "ruthlessness" of the bank, finally crushed him, and Vogt had to declare bankruptcy.

Originally, because he had repaid all his foreign debts, Vogt, who had some savings before, was still able to provide a stable life for his wife and young son.

But the less fortunate tend to be more unlucky...... Not long after he went bankrupt, his youngest son suddenly fell ill and needed surgery to save his ......

But Vogt sold all his belongings except for his pistol and moved his family from Bridge to a cheap house in the East Side, but he still didn't have enough money to pay for the operation.

At this time, he was carrying the only "belongings" he had left in his pocket, and his eyes glanced at a theater not far away, as if he wanted to do something against his morals, but was "stopped" by his only remaining conscience.

In fact, the difference in the cost of his surgery was not very much, and he only needed to get another 30 pounds to hire the famous Dr. Allen to do the surgery......

If it was before, this money would be no problem, but for Vogt, who now has no income and no industry, there is nothing that can be done.

No source he could think of could raise 30 pounds in a day or two, and even the loan sharks would not lend him money.

Apart from......

Thinking of this, Vogt touched the handle of the gun in his hand, as if he had made up his mind:

Alex is dead...... If Marcus also dies of illness, what's the point of me and Lin being alive?

And Lyn's spirit was already very bad when Alex died, and she definitely couldn't accept the blow of losing her child again......

When the time comes, even if I kill all the lawmakers who pushed for that bastard's bill, I won't be able to save anything? It's better to grab a deal now!

And I've already inquired about it, and the daughter of a bastard councillor is the de facto manager of this theater, and it is only natural that she robbed her of her money, and it is only natural that she is atoning for her father's sins!

After doing a series of psychological construction, Vogt lowered his hat, took a deep breath, and was about to enter the theater and rob the "ticket office".

He stepped on it in advance, knowing that because it was the day of the new film "Ice Sea Shipwreck" of "Bryan Film and Television", there was definitely a lot of cash in the box office.

But just as Vogt was approaching the door of the theater, there was a sudden change, and several girls dressed quite sexy and fashionable each walked out with a stack of papers similar to "leaflets".

When they saw Vogt coming forward, they giggled and gave him one by one.

When the smell was far away from Vogt's side, he came back to his senses, and when he looked back, he saw the young ladies standing on the side of the road, handing out leaflets to passers-by.

Two or three security guards dressed in police uniforms were standing not far from them, as if to protect them from harassment.

Seeing the "security guard", Vogt's momentum of "moving forward" was interrupted, and he began to look forward and backward again, suffering from gains and losses: since the people who distributed the leaflets were equipped with security guards, would there be no such thing as a ticket office?

Frustrated, Vogt subconsciously glanced at the "flyer" in his hand and found that the top page was a "questionnaire":

"Which imaginary movie scene would you like to be in reality?"

A few alternative answers are also given below, such as "The Sunken Laurel", such as "Russell's Crystal Palace", etc...... Of course, you can also write a "wish" yourself.

"Boring ......" Vogt shook his head, he didn't have the leisure to travel now, and then casually flipped through the back of a few leaflets, and found that the content was similar, but the wording was different, for example, at the beginning of the second copy, it was written:

"If you could make a wish to Viscount Abner Brynn and bring your dreams to life, which one would you choose?"

"There's a lot of variety...... Make a wish? Vogt scoffed and threw the leaflets in the trash, but the text on the last page caught his attention and stopped him.

"The Lord of Berdan is looking for elite people with experience in engineering management and business management, with a salary of 10 pounds a week...... Can you advance your salary?! ”

Vogt stared at these lines, completely ignoring the many follow-up "requirements", such as having to leave Beckland to work in Beldan, such as the implementation of the 996 work system, and only allowing him to rest when he went to church on Sundays......

His mind was now completely filled with the words "salary advance".

The next moment, he rushed towards a young lady who was handing out leaflets, but was stopped by a nearby security guard who stepped forward and asked, "What do you want to do?" ”

Vogt came back to his senses, ignoring the young lady's panic and surprise, stared straight at her and asked, "Is this recruitment real?"

"When and where are the interviews?"

The young lady who handed out the flyer glanced at the security guard who was blocking in front of her, smiled sweetly, and then calmly replied, "It's in the manager's room on the third floor of the theater...... Interviews are available now. ”

Speaking of this, she reminded "kindly":

"But you'd better go to the stationery store next door and make a resume of yourself."

"Thank you!" Vogt thanked him earnestly, and immediately ran to the small shop near the theater.

Seeing him leave, Miss Flyer gave the security guard a wink and smiled, "Thank you." ”

The security guard's face suddenly turned red, he touched his hair and stammered, "This ...... Here's what I have to do. ”

With that, he hurried away and continued to perform his duties.

Seeing this, the other ladies who handed out the flyers laughed in unison and quipped in a low voice, "Zoe, don't use the tricks you used to use in 'White Rose' on Ron, he hasn't seen this." ”

The girl named Zoe stomped her foot in annoyance.

……

In front of the floor-to-ceiling windows on the third floor of the theater, Abner and Hazel watched the scene together.

For those "prostitutes" who took over from the hands of the "Enchanting Apostle" Cecia, they were all arranged by Abner to go to Berdan, and they will work as "stars" in the future, and it is up to them whether they can get out of the way...... Even if they go back to their jobs, Abner won't interfere anymore.

Those who want to return to ordinary life are basically arranged to do work such as welcoming and entertaining people in theaters in various cities, and they will also watch various teaching videos and learn various skills for them in the evening...... It's kind of a part-time job...... Of course, there are also self-reliant people, such as the same former "White Rose" lady who opened a stationery store next to the theater.

"The man...... It seems to have hatred for my father......" Hazel said after a few seconds of silence.

"No policy is likely to satisfy everyone, and there will always be people who will suffer...... As long as there is follow-up consideration, there is compensation, and there is help, it is not a big problem. Abner laughed.

"So...... You are recruiting a lot of workers in Berdan, and there is a reason to make up for this problem? Hazel asked with a sideways face.

"Sort of...... But it's more for the development of my territory itself. Abner replied honestly.

"Thank you, Abner...... If it weren't for you, that man's family would have been killed by my father...... He may go to extremes to get revenge on my father......" Hazel said with a hint of gratitude.

It's not that she's speculating, it's that she's just promoted to "Fire Stealer" and has been able to steal some of other people's ideas.
