Looking at Judith who was held in front of him, Leon raised a smile at the corner of his mouth. He was about to put his face close to her and kiss this cute little baby girl.
Unexpectedly, Judith suddenly puffed up her mouth, opened her little mouth, and spit saliva all over his face.
This scene made everyone around laugh. Amy smiled and reached out to hug little Judith, looking at her boss happily.
Leon smiled bitterly, took some tissues from the table beside him, wiped his face, and said to Rick:
"She is very brave and will definitely become a lovely little angel in the future."
Amy came over and helped him adjust his bow tie. Judith had been handed to Sean. The macho man had tenderness in his eyes as he was teasing the baby girl with a small children's toy.
At the dinner that day, everyone had a great time. Leon also put aside his airs as a big boss and played the role of Doctor Leon, chatting with everyone, smoking cigars, and playing bridge until midnight.
After returning to his room, he helped the slightly tipsy Amy into the girl's bedroom, and went to the bathroom to take a hot bath to wash away the smell of alcohol on his body.
He had already entered a state of self-cultivation. Instead of doing those pleasant things with his secretary, he went to the shooting range on the lower level of the base alone to practice shooting.
Due to the special energy in his body, he has always been very energetic. He only needs to rest for two or three hours a day to restore his energy for the whole day. He can obviously do more things, but because he is used to enjoying himself, he has wasted a lot of time in the past.
After experiencing a fatal threat, Lyon decided not to indulge himself too much, but to spend more time and energy on improving his strength or increasing his influence.
After a brief thought, Leon agreed. Although not all employees in the company were recruited by him personally, he had carefully reviewed everyone's resume and recruitment video. Even though he could not remember many people's names, he had a vague impression of all of them in his mind.
Sitting at the main seat at the interview desk, Andrea brought a cup of coffee and said softly:
In today's world, food has become one of Lyon's greatest hobbies and enjoyments. He will live here for a long, long time and cannot treat himself badly.
"Those guys are all idiots, even dumber than Sherman. If you want them to be able to skillfully operate drones and armed mechanical dogs, they need at least two months of training."
After receiving his praise, Peggy showed a satisfied smile. She reached out and grabbed Leon's hand, her cheeks flushed, and she asked in a low voice:
"Boss, can I come to see you in the evening? I haven't been with you for a week and I miss you so much."
Just as he was about to go back to take a nap, a thin woman also came to the shooting range. She found the administrator on night shift, received a pistol and a box of ammunition, walked to a target position 30 meters away in a corner, and began to practice shooting silently.
They are young people selected from all employees who are quick-witted and good at operating electronic equipment.
The girl smiled sweetly and looked at him with her watery eyes, like a puppy wanting to please its owner.
She received Amy's notice early and waited at the door of the personnel department to receive Leon.
Under the guidance of other staff members, they lined up in a long queue, received the documents they needed to fill out, and began the formal interview.
Sitting in the main seat, Leon glanced at the survivors and saw several familiar figures, the tall and burly black man Hammer God, his sister, the little black girl Sasha with a big hair, and the couple who accompanied him to the prison and Woodbury in the original TV series and their son who chatted with them.
After a brief conversation, Peggy took Leon on a careful tour of the entire training ground and introduced him to the young students.
As far as I can remember, that group of people were originally good people, but in the process of doing good deeds, they encountered a group of scum looters, and then suffered a lot of abuse and violation, and eventually turned from sheep into butchers and cannibals.
There were a total of 25 survivors sent from the prison base. After listening to the welfare benefits of Umbrella Corporation, except for some women and children who had no skills and could only become members of the logistics department, all other adults wanted to join the engineering department or the security department to have a better life.
There was no unnecessary small talk. The two of them had already known each other for a long time. Moreover, Andrea was Amy's sister. Their relationship was a little closer than that of an employee and a boss.
After the battle of the Senas Nuclear Power Plant, Leon became more and more aware of the importance of weapons and equipment. He began to actively collect information about military warehouses or similar facilities in all surrounding areas, and issued a high bounty within the company.
It seems that in front of him, Peggy is a cuddly, strong and lovely girl, but in front of other people, maybe Peggy is not as gentle and lovely as she appears now.
Apart from these technicians and women and children, unexpectedly, among the remaining dozen or so adults, except for three or four with cowardly personalities, everyone else wanted to join the Security Department and get the high salary and benefits.
Two fully armed patrol guards walked into the meeting room with more than 20 survivors.
But obviously, military drones are not so easy to control. Looking at those crooked and randomly flying machines in the air, Lyon reminded himself that everything requires enough patience.
After practicing until four or five in the morning and using up thousands of bullets, Leon felt that his marksmanship had improved slightly.
In the current Umbrella base, although Amy claims to be Leon's personal secretary, most of the chores are arranged and handled by her. Although the position does not seem high, the power is very great. In the minds of most ordinary employees, this 23 or 24-year-old girl is probably already a big shot.
Leon looked at the girl's pure and lovely face.
This was exactly what Leon had expected. As time went on since the apocalypse, the survivors gradually became more and more familiar with combat and searching. They had all realized the preciousness of food, medicine, guns and other supplies, and gradually became willing to take risks to obtain more supplies.
It is necessary to train more than 5 pilots for Umbrella Company within half a year.
After all, in this world, bullets are also a very precious resource. As an organization with a clear distinction between public and private, Umbrella Corporation cannot provide free bullets for everyone to use.
However, among these people, only four were able to join the engineering department as technical personnel: a university physics teacher, a doctor, a senior fisherman and a senior chef.
Leon raised his hand and touched her short golden hair, then asked softly:
"How is it? Are these students learning quickly?"
"Maybe in a few days. I'm quite busy recently. I will take the initiative to find you then."
However, Lyon discovered an interesting phenomenon: all the students in the training ground, including Sherman, would subconsciously appear a little afraid when facing Peggy.
However, unlike in the TV series, this time his wife was not bitten by the zombies and is still alive and well.
A hint of disappointment flashed across Peggy's blue eyes, but she immediately smiled sweetly and said:
"Okay, boss. I'll wait for you."
This little matter was decided by Amy and he didn't ask about it.
Peggy squinted her eyes, seeming to enjoy Leon stroking her hair. She bit her lower lip and said:
This bounty even caused a trend within the company to search for military bases, but unfortunately, after so much time, no one had provided any truly useful intelligence.
It seems that although their Umbrella Corporation has done many things in the areas around Atlanta, it still has not affected what was supposed to happen.
Judging from the wars during this period, these drones and armed mechanical dogs are indeed very practical tactical weapons. They integrate various functions such as reconnaissance, exploration, combat, and luring the enemy, which can greatly reduce the damage to the soldiers.
"Boss, you're here!"
Judging from the current time, there should still be hope of salvation.
"This is your territory, Andrea. You are in charge. I just came here to take a look."
Keeping this in mind, Lyon went through the interview process and the result was pretty good.
The girl said to Leon with a flattering expression and a look of wanting to be praised:
"My brother and I learned how to control them in just one week."
After waking up, little Amy brought him a sumptuous breakfast, served him while he ate, and told him that a group of survivors would be sent to the base for interviews from the prison base. There would be about 20 survivors, who were survivors found around the prison base in the past half month. She asked him if he would go to the interview.
"Leon, can we start the interview?"
Time passed by minute by minute. After the interview, these employees still had to go through a series of miscellaneous tasks such as training, visits, housing allocation, and learning rules and regulations.
Not only do they have to go through many physical and skill assessments, but even if they join the security department, they still need to go through a three-month probation period. Once they fail the probation period, they will be sent back to the logistics department and become a laborer.
That is, the survivors at the terminal not too far from the prison base.
Peggy, who was debugging the computer, noticed Leon's arrival, immediately put down her work, and walked briskly to his side.
He vaguely remembered that little Amy once said that a few months ago, after the accident, Carol buried her husband, and now she was raising her daughter Sophia alone, and her life was rather difficult.
"Of course, you and your brother are both talented people, and you have helped me a lot."
This is the armed mechanic training class run by Sherman and Peggy.
He had also asked Colonel William about this information, but unfortunately, before the disaster, Colonel William had been stationed in foreign territories. Although he had accumulated considerable practical experience, he knew very little about domestic intelligence.
Not only that, he also gave a death order to Colonel William and Kevera, ordering them to take time out to set up a tank operation training class and a helicopter driving training class.
But as a self-disciplined person, he licked his lips and said with some difficulty:
In this way, the matter was gradually delayed.
Leon continued to watch with a kind smile, not interrupting the interview process, but just thinking about this matter in his mind. Calculating the time, it was almost the same time that Hammer God and his sister found the prison.
Hearing this, Andrea smiled back at him, and soon, under her arrangement, the interview began.
This has been officially named the Human Resources Group, which is responsible for the company's entire personnel deployment, remuneration and recruitment of new members. Andrea, as the team leader of the Human Resources Group and a veteran employee of the company, has also been promoted to a C-level member, and is one of the few senior government officials in the entire company.
After breakfast, he dealt with some government affairs. At around 9 o'clock, Leon came to Andrea's office, a conference room on the first floor.
However, the Security Department had been streamlining and reforming a few months ago, eliminating some ordinary people who only had courage but no talent for fighting, and had set increasingly strict recruitment conditions.
Even if they fail the assessment once or twice, as long as they are willing to work hard and try, they will have countless opportunities to take the assessment.
As the big boss, Lyon never asked about these little things. Seeing that there was more than an hour left before lunch time, he thought about it and came to the training ground in a corner of the square outside the base.
Leon recognized her. It was Carol, which surprised him a little. You know, practicing shooting at the shooting range requires contribution points, and the price is not cheap.
It is now the 10th month of the apocalypse. The survivors who have survived to this day are all people who are extremely eager to join a powerful organization. They have gone through 10 months of suffering, and everyone's hands are more or less stained with human or zombie blood, and they can no longer be considered rookies.
Among these four technicians, the ones that Leon is most interested in are the fisherman and the chef. The experienced fisherman is easy to understand. After all, in addition to growing food, fishing is also an important way to obtain food.
And the senior chef who claims to be from a Michelin three-star hotel will become his personal chef after the probation period.
Anyone who can provide useful information in this regard will receive a huge reward.
Leon praised her tactfully.
After observing for a while, Leon found that Carol's shooting skills were better than those of ordinary civilians. His hit rate at a fixed target of 30 meters was about 70%. It was obvious that he had been practicing for some time.
But at the same time, this also opens up the scope of recruitment to some extent, because now, as long as one is an employee of Umbrella Corporation, after hard work and training, and can pass the assessment of the Security Department, regardless of race, gender, or age, they can choose to join here and become a glorious warrior.
Therefore, Lyon not only fulfilled his previous promise and asked Sherman to organize an armed machinery training class, but also specially established a special research group in the Engineering Department to be responsible for improving and manufacturing these practical armed machinery.
Leon took the coffee, smiled at her kindly, and said:
Thinking of this, looking at the Hammer God siblings, Leon thought of another group of people who had a tragic ending.
However, Leon had a rough guess as to what the reason was that caused Carol to come over in the early morning to learn shooting. He did not disturb the single mother, but returned to his own residence and slept until 8 o'clock.
Come to think of it, perhaps it was because Leon cut off Peggy's left arm in the shelter of the Polytechnic University and saved the girl's life that she always had a strange liking for him.
After visiting the armed mechanical training ground, Lyon had lunch with Peggy and her brother. After cultivating a relationship with his capable subordinates, Lyon returned to his office.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw Maggie, a farm girl wearing suspenders and a gray linen shirt, chatting and laughing with Amy while enjoying the dessert on the table.
