Bodhisattva, please help me in my spiritual practice!

Along the way, Hao Ke drove himself, while Ao Peng and another classmate surnamed Chen sat in the back.

This also shows the difference of the newly established Bureau of Polling.

Because the polling bureau conducted a survey in the past two months and found that young people in their teens to twenties make up the vast majority of gamers.

Since the Bureau of Polling itself cannot change the age of the game participants, it can only change itself, and thus some of the Bureau's internal operating procedures were quickly changed.

Key personnel transferred from other departments don't have to be gamers, but they must know how to interact with young people.

Just as Ao Peng guessed.

The polling bureau is not trying to exploit young people.

This is a very simple principle.

First, you've been exploiting them too much. Young people have legs; they know how to run away. You can't just kill them all, can you?

Secondly, while the strength of players in the old game has not yet risen to the point of influencing the national level, it will definitely determine the strength of the nation in the future.

If you exploit too much, you are actually robbing the empire of its future, which is like draining the pond to catch all the fish.

On the contrary, for the sake of the empire's future, the Bureau of Investigation will provide the best gaming assistance to young people who are willing to join.

"Brother, you're amazing! You managed to get a leave slip directly from Uncle Hao. You know, my leave slip from last week hasn't even been approved yet. I should have done what you did and negotiated the terms with Uncle Hao first."

As Hao Ke drove, he complained, "Don't you even know how many days off you've taken in the past two months?! We're an administrative department, not a department for truancy!"

Chen Baixue chuckled and responded twice, then said to Ao Peng, "My name is Chen Baixue, what's yours?"

"Ao Peng".

Ao Peng replied with a smile, since they would be colleagues in the future, he naturally wouldn't pretend to be aloof.

Along the way, Chen Baixue intentionally chatted with Ao Peng about the game. Ao Peng was neither aloof nor enthusiastic, and did not actually answer where he had been playing.

Although Hao Ke was driving, he was also secretly observing Ao Peng's performance.

A seasoned veteran.

Hao Ke made a judgment about Ao Peng.

Ao Peng did not display the arrogance and naiveté typical of college students.

Instead, he had the air of a seasoned veteran from the old department.

"arrive."

Hao Ke parked his car in front of a fairly impressive office building.

Outside the building, there were tall and imposing security guards standing guard, surrounded by railings. Inside, there was a huge parking lot, which contained not only various official vehicles, but also specialized equipment vehicles that Ao Peng couldn't understand.

Upon entering the Bureau of Public Opinion Investigation, Hao Ke led Ao Peng to the office of the First Division.

The office was huge, but there were only two or three scattered workstations with signs of human presence.

Hao Ke explained with a smile, "The game is still in its early stages, and there aren't many players recruited by the bureau yet. Including you and me, there are only five people in our department right now. Because of confidentiality, we don't even hire ordinary clerks. All the clerical work is handled by me."

Just like Ao Peng thought, most young people and seasoned veterans in society are still hesitant, after all, everyone is thinking about being the only one who can do things their way and living a carefree life.

This is someone else's choice, and Ao Peng has nothing to say about it.

After saying that, Hao Ke brought over two more agreements and handed them to Ao Peng.

"These are two employment agreements. Please take a look."

Ao Peng took the two stacks of agreements and began to read them carefully.

The agreement is very simple.

The Class A agreement grants full inclusion in the organization and the best benefits. However, in the face of any crisis related to the old game, you will be required to rush to the front lines like a soldier.

The daily duty schedule is strictly in accordance with the civil service system.

Category B agreements are outsourcing agreements that offer relatively standard benefits, but do not include promotions within the system, do not require strict adherence to duty schedules, and do not require being on the front lines in case of a crisis, but are required to provide assistance to the best of their ability.

After reviewing both agreements, Ao Peng had already made up his mind, but he still smiled and looked at Hao Ke, "Hao Ke, I'm a college student and haven't seen an employment agreement before. Do you have any suggestions?"

The important thing about the two agreements is not which one he chooses, but which one the Bureau of Polling makes him choose after he enters the Bureau.

Civil servants should act like civil servants.

Hao Ke looked at Ao Peng for a second and laughed, "Don't call me Hao Ke anymore. If you don't mind, just call me Uncle Hao like Bai Xue does."

"Okay, Uncle Hao."

Ao Peng readily accepted good advice.

Hao Ke continued, "For college students like you who haven't had any contact with society, we generally recommend a Category B agreement. You are still young and have huge room for growth. The country is strong now and can keep those demons and monsters in check. We don't need you to rush to the front lines. You can accumulate more experience later. When our generation gets old and can't rush to the front lines anymore, you will have your own next generation. At that time, you will naturally understand what responsibility is."

Hao Ke didn't spout any grand principles; his tone was sincere.

"In addition, a Class B agreement can be converted to a Class A agreement. Also, although the tasks you complete during the Class B agreement period cannot directly promote you to officer rank, after converting to a Class A agreement, your merits will be used to promote you to officer rank first."

Hao Ke opened the agreement and pointed out the most important line to Ao Peng.

Ao Peng nodded repeatedly, just as he had thought. The Bureau of Investigation was now recruiting people, which was like buying a horse's bones with a thousand pieces of gold. Although it wasn't the kind of contract that would make you rich overnight, it gave you the key to the upper echelons. In the long run, it was even more worthwhile than giving Ao Peng a million in cash.

Money is merely a means of allocating social resources. Once it enters the Bureau of Polling, some of the resources that the Bureau can use cannot be mobilized by money.

Ao Peng nodded repeatedly, and then readily signed his name on the Class B contract.

The contract itself includes a confidentiality agreement, and it is a lifetime employment system that includes five social insurances and one housing fund, a year-end bonus of 13 months' salary, additional allowances, separate bonuses for tasks, and even personal accident insurance—a complete package.

So even though the official salary is only 5000 a month, if you work hard and don't have any ulterior motives, even if you're a complete failure in the old-school games, you'll definitely have enough to eat and wear.

No wonder it takes thousands of troops to cross a single-plank bridge; this kind of guarantee alone is something that few, no, only the Empire can provide.

In addition, the Bureau of Investigation provides comprehensive onboarding training, including internal reports, combat training, basic firearms, and anything else you think will be useful for playing the old-school games, you can apply to the Bureau of Investigation to learn, and training courses will be arranged in a unified manner.

Since it was Ao Peng's first day at the company, Hao Ke spent the whole morning helping him with various procedures such as getting a bank card, access control, and fingerprinting.

Ao Peng had received 10,000 yuan from someone for a boxing lesson with Chu Ge in the afternoon, so he directly explained the situation to Hao Ke.

Since he had a Class B contract, Hao Ke naturally didn't stop Ao Peng from earning money to support his family. He even thoughtfully said, "The bureau has done a basic survey of your situation. Your salary for this month has already been paid in advance and is in this bank card, paid in whole months."

That's so thoughtful, Ao Peng had to give Hao Ke a thumbs up.
