Daily Summary: I'm a CEO in a Bizarre World

"Let me tell you, Team Leader Luo has completely gone mad!" Liao Bin said excitedly.

"He actually said that if Mai Xing could kill the contaminated entity, why couldn't we, the five team leaders, do the same? Let's all work together to kill the contaminated entity and hand it over to the company to narrow the performance gap."

"How could that be? Isn't that asking the impossible?"

Liao Bin was talking so much that spittle flew everywhere, and Mai Xing and Ye Lin only escaped because they were at a non-straight angle to him.

Hey, where did your unyielding spirit go? What happened to your vow to never surrender?

Mai Xing was surprised that Liao Bin would be so open about revealing an inside story, and wondered why he hadn't given him any talent to perform.

"So? Is Luo Qian preparing to kill the corrupted entity?" Ye Lin continued to ask.

If even one unit can kill and hand over the contaminated entity, then Mai Xing's efficiency might not be consistently high enough to surpass one unit. If necessary, I'll have to make a deal with the [Loan King].

"Impossible, absolutely impossible," Liao Bin shook his head and waved his hands.

"Leaving aside whether we have the ability to kill the polluted entity, just finding its hiding place and devising a plan to kill it are things that those of us who have never dealt with the polluted entity before cannot accomplish."

If a few random housekeepers could kill the contaminated entity, then the Sealed Artifacts Management Department could be disbanded.

"I agree." Mai Xing nodded in agreement, which earned her a subtle eye roll from Ye Lin.

"so what."

"So? Oh, so Luo Qian requires us to increase our daily performance by 10%, otherwise he will strip us of our team leader positions after October."

"I suspect that was his original plan, he just set an impossible goal first, like tearing down the roof before opening a window." Liao Bin said angrily, and both Mai Xing and Liao Bin could hear the deep resentment he felt towards Luo Qian.

"From Luo Qian's perspective, this request is also reasonable. After all, in order to close the performance gap, you must increase your daily earnings. Look, you've already surpassed him in just one week," Mai Xing said honestly, with the mindset of a seasoned expert.

"No, I have a family life. My daughter cooks dinner for me every day and waits for me to come home. My wife goes to bed early; she can't sleep peacefully until she hears me tell her funny stories about work. Now I'm working overtime every day, and my life has been completely disrupted," Liao Bin said painfully, rubbing his curly hair.

Hey, did you get the roles of daughter and wife mixed up?

"So, why tell us all this?" Ye Lin asked Mai Xing, who was also curious about the same thing.

Liao Bin remained silent for a long time, and Mai Xing was starting to suspect that he was making up an excuse and that everything he had said was a lie, when he finally stammered, "Consider it as repayment for saving me earlier."

"This old man is still so fussy and indecisive," Ye Lin complained.

Liao Bin sighed and said, "To be honest, this year's two competitions have put a lot of pressure on me, and on the other team leaders as well."

We extraordinary individuals, already in our thirties and still only at Sequence 7, have reached our limit in this lifetime. We've never considered how much room for advancement we can have in the workplace; isn't the point of a job to be stable?

Besides, I only joined the "group buying" team this year. I have no grudge against your second department. My monthly salary is so low, why should I work so hard?

Liao Bin's words resonated with Mai Xing and the other man, leaving them speechless for a moment.

"Thank you for sharing the information." Seeing that the conversation had gone on for a while, Mai Xing took the initiative to end the topic.

Now, he and Ye Lin are listening to Liao Bin's complaints, and both are at a standstill. From a conspiracy theory perspective, it's tantamount to them being controlled by one person within a larger organization.

"Don't mention it." Liao Bin waved his hand. "I'm also very happy to meet you all. To be honest, the atmosphere at the company is too rigid, with clear class distinctions. Going to work feels like a caste system of slavery. I don't like that kind of atmosphere."

After saying goodbye to Liao Bin, Ye Lin asked, "Do you believe what he said?"

"Always be suspicious and vigilant of your competitors," Mai Xing laughed. "But I don't think he's lying."

"I think so too," Ye Lin nodded in agreement.

"A 30% increase in daily performance bonuses? If we put even more pressure on him, can Luo Qian handle it?"

"You've contaminated the coordinates of the main body again?" Ye Lin was delighted to hear this, but Mai Xing shook his head in denial: "Not yet."

"Then what the hell are you talking about?"

At this moment, the panel that she couldn't see floated in front of Mai Xing, displaying information about the "Mother of the Deep Nest".

The [cost of use] for a level 1 sealed item is between 1 and 5 sanity. I definitely cannot kill "Social Dust" with a [cost of use] of 3.5 at my current stage.

But for a 1.5 level "Mother of the Deep Nest," I think you can make a contribution.

Mai Xing decided to first invest heavily to raise the influence of "Mother of the Deep Nest" to the [Initial Influence] level, unlocking the [Location of the Main Body] and [Method of Elimination], and then improve the corresponding sealing materials required to kill it based on its weaknesses.

Soon the two arrived at the destination of their next work order, which was another three-story mansion with a courtyard.

"I know the rules, let's begin." Ye Lin stopped Mai Xing's instructions and urged him on.

"You don't know the value of money until you're in charge of the household. You're such a thrifty child, you have no idea how hard it is for your old father to earn a living," Mai Xing said, shaking his head.

pat...

As soon as the two entered the mansion, they stepped onto a layer of water.

"Is it leaking?" Mai Xing asked, puzzled.

Not only at the entrance, but the ground as far as the eye can see is flooded, and the water is even showing signs of slight movement, so the outlet may still be releasing water continuously.

If the problem of water leakage is to be dealt with, using "Social Dust" is probably not appropriate, so Mai Xing thought of another sealed artifact.

[Use of the sealed item: "The Resentment of 2-5000 Cattle and Horses (Loyal Employees)" will deduct 0.15 sanity.]

[Remaining usage time: 02:59:99]

[Rationality Balance: 365.57]

A bone-chilling cold emanated from Mai Xing's feet, spreading outwards from the two of them. The previously slow-flowing water instantly froze into a thin layer of ice.

The "resentment of cattle and horses" becomes an extension of Mai Xing's perception. Wherever it goes, the surrounding environment will be simultaneously displayed in its sea of ​​consciousness.

Before long, Mai Xing found the source of the leak.

"It seems we're in trouble," Mai Xing said.

"How so?"

"The sealing artifact I used, 'The Resentment of Oxen and Horses,' costs a whopping 0.15 sanity to use. Moreover, because it is related to my 'Oxen and Horses' pathway, it can exert a higher level of power. As long as I go all out, I can exert a level of power close to that of the corrupted entity."

The source of the leak has been found, but the "resentment of cattle and horses" cannot resolve it and eliminate the pollution in a short time.

Ye Lin understood after listening, and her expression became serious. She said, "So the pollutants hidden in this mansion came from a Level 1 pollutant."

"That's right."

To make Ye Lin take the pollutant seriously and avoid underestimating it and getting hurt, Mai Xing described it as a major threat, but in reality, he was overjoyed.

Encountering a Level 1 pollutant means that there is a possibility that it will be included in the record after it is cleaned up!
