0503 Relocation of the main body in progress (18)
In the past, Huaguo Starry Sky told all the mercenaries that they would definitely return their freedom within three years. Although the morale of the mercenaries has been greatly improved, they do not think that the time period of 'within three years' will be very short. They thought it would take at least two years or more than two and a half years.
In fact, for Chen Yue, three years is just a general reference. He didn't even think about actually enslaving these people for three years.
Now, Chen Yue felt that the time was ripe to return his freedom to the mercenaries, and then let them choose again. He needs a willing warrior, not a 'slave' with a knot.
"Brothers, I'm Chen Yue. On behalf of the Star Group headquarters, I would now like to announce great news to all of you. The news is that, after research by the Group Headquarters, it has been decided that all of you will be reinstated as free men from now on. Later, the deed of sale signed by each of you will be returned to each of you, and you will destroy it with your own hands. In your upbringing, some people died, and they were unfortunate. But you are lucky. You managed to persevere to the end and succeeded in changing your fate. So, you lucky ones who are still alive, rejoice. In the face of the 10,000-strong mercenary troops, Chen Yue spoke passionately on the stage.
Chen Yue said this, and there was no news about it in advance. When the mercenaries heard it, they thought they were hallucinating.
"What, free, that's free? Did I hear you right?"
"As if you heard it right, that's what I'm hearing. ”
"It's not a joke on us, is it? After all, the training camp was cruel to us, but the Star Group paid a huge price for it. We have barely created much value for the group now, and the group has set us free?"
"It's not like a joke. After all, General Chen also said that the deed of sale will be returned to each of us immediately. Doesn't the underworld recognize that?"
After several discussions and mutual verification, the mercenaries finally believed that they had heard the same thing. Chen Yue did say that they would be given their freedom back immediately.
'Oh ......', more than 10,000 people immediately cheered loudly.
On the stage, Chen Yue smiled and watched the reactions of the mercenaries in the audience.
"You see, the human yearning for freedom is so strong. In fact, all intelligent beings have the same yearning for freedom. No matter how good we are to these mercenaries, no matter how bright the prospects for staying here are, because of the deed of sale, there will always be a knot in their hearts. The sooner this knot is untied for them, the stronger their sense of belonging to the group and the company will be. Chen Yue smiled and said to Zhou Hong and the others beside him.
Zhou Hong and the others nodded in agreement.
However, the loud cheers from the audience did not last long. Soon, the cheers subsided, and confusion appeared on the faces of the mercenaries.
Because they gradually realized that there was a problem, a very serious problem.
The Star Group spent a great deal of money to cultivate them, but they were given their freedom so early. What does that mean? Does it mean that the Star Group doesn't need them anymore? They just go back to their homes?
However, among the mercenaries here, because of the desperate thing at the beginning, many people have actually looked down on family affection. And with their current identity and knowledge, it is actually difficult to return to the ordinary life they had at the beginning.
The main thing is that all the mercenaries know the status of the Star Group on Earth. You suddenly let them lose their status as employees of Star Group, and they really feel extremely uncomfortable and unwilling.
Those who can survive the brutal training of the Siberian training camp are basically out-of-heart and unwilling to be subordinate. After understanding the magic of the martial arts world, most of the mercenaries are already unwilling to give up martial arts. Because they knew that without the slightest resource base, martial arts was the only thing they could rely on forever.
And if nothing else, if they leave the Star Group, the future path of martial arts will definitely not be easy, and it will definitely not be like when they were in the mercenary group, there are enough martial arts cultivation auxiliary materials to enjoy and very perfect auxiliary cultivation facilities to use at any time.
What's more, since the Star Group is so powerful, so promising, and so humane, it doesn't really mean much whether they get their deed of sale back. On the contrary, if the group is always in control of their deed of sale, perhaps the level of trust in them will only increase, not decrease.
The mercenaries who have seen through the world are fine.
"General Chen, is it true that after we get back the deed of sale, the group will not need us? If that's the case, can I not get the deed of sale back and continue to stay here and stay in the Star Group?" a mercenary shouted loudly from the audience.
"Yes, if you get back the deed of sale and want to leave Huaguo Starry Sky, then I won't take it. I don't want to leave here. My old home is gone, and Star Group is my new home. Another mercenary shouted.
Eventually, a similar cry rang out.
Zhou Hong and the others couldn't help but look at each other. Why are these people addicted to being 'slaves'?
And Chen Yue showed a relieved smile on his face, 'It was really so'.
"Brothers, be quiet, please listen to me. Chen Yue said loudly into the microphone.
The cacophony of the mercenaries gradually subsided. All the mercenaries looked at Chen Yue intently.
"Brothers, I'm sure to tell you that returning your deed of sale to you doesn't mean that the group doesn't need you anymore. On the contrary, you are all talents cultivated by the group at great cost, how can the group give up on you easily. The purpose of returning the deed of sale to you is to restore you to your status as a free man once and for all. Then, the group hopes that you will officially join our Star Group as a free person and become a member of the group. Of course, if you are not willing to continue your current dangerous job after you have regained your freedom, you can go back to your hometown, or wherever you want. Chen Yue loudly said the company's plans in this matter.
When the mercenaries heard this, most of them were ecstatic. To be able to join the Star Group as a true free man is of course the best thing. However, Chen Yue's words are not finished.
"I know that for most of the past six months, many brothers have saved their salaries because they have no place to spend money. That's enough money for you to do a lot of things. Your money is enough, but I still have to tell you that the salary of the brother who wants to stay will be quadrupled on the original basis. And the brother who wants to really leave, we will give him the equivalent of his previous salary so that he can go back in style. Chen Yue continued to speak for a while, and finally completely said what he was thinking in his heart.
"The group is so interesting. General Chen, I, Wang Daniu, will not go back. I want to stay, join the Star Group, and always obey the general's command. ”
"General Chen, I, Shao Xiaoliang, won't go back......"
"I'm not going back......"
Suddenly, most of the mercenaries loudly said that they wanted to stay.
Of course, there are hundreds of people of all kinds, and there are all kinds of birds when the forest is big. In an atmosphere of passionate statements, a very small number of mercenaries remained silent with complicated expressions, and did not say that they would continue to stay.
Although these very few mercenaries also had the idea of staying, they finally decided to leave due to various other factors, such as extreme longing for their relatives at home, or out of the idea of 'preferring to be the head of a chicken rather than the tail of a phoenix'.
Under Xiao Qian's real-time monitoring, Chen Yue naturally quickly knew how many mercenaries there were who did not express their intention to leave.
"Fortunately, there are about 200 people who want to leave. The size of this team is still more than 10,000 people. Chen Yue thought with great relief in his heart.
The total number of people trained in the Siberian training camp was about 10,400. They fought in the twelve countries around the Tani country for more than half a year, because they were all small-scale battles, and there were not many superpowers on the battlefield at all, so the total number of deaths was only more than a hundred and not more than two hundred.
Now if we remove about 200 people, the total number of teams will still exceed 10,000 people, and they will not have the name of '10,000 troops'.
"Good. Brothers, on behalf of the group headquarters, I would like to thank every brother who is willing to stay for joining. As for those who want to leave, you don't have to be embarrassed. And please rest assured that the group will not make any difficulties for you. As soon as you get your deed of sale, the group will arrange for ships to take you out of Qatar and into the Thani Kingdom. The Cheng Yi that the group promised to give to you will also be credited to your account immediately. From now on, you will have nothing to do with the Star Group. Chen Yue said loudly.
After a period of busyness, more than 10,000 mercenaries got their deeds of sale and destroyed them. Subsequently, the mercenaries who were willing to stay carried out a grand registration ceremony and officially became a member of the Star Group.
The ship, carrying two hundred mercenaries who did not want to stay, also dropped anchor and left Kada Island.
"Brother, aren't you worried that after these people go out, they will reveal all their experiences in the training camp and everything they saw on the island?" Seeing that the ship carrying the mercenaries gradually moved away, Zhou Hong asked Chen Yue a little puzzled.
