Chapter 67 Hotel Staff Recruitment Plan
After entrusting Ye Yuanmei's matter to Lu Ran, Wang Xiao returned to his guest room and looked at another personnel list compiled by Xue Wu on the table.
Unlike Lu Ran, who was responsible for assessing suitable hotel kitchen staff, Wang Xiao assigned Xue Wu the task of selecting suitable members for the hotel's security department.
In the opening battle, excluding those who accepted commissions like Yue Man, the Peace Hotel's truly effective fighting force consisted only of him, Xue Wu, and Li Shu, two of whom were ordinary people.
To think that just three people can survive in this apocalyptic world is pure nonsense.
For a hotel to develop stably, it must have its own security force.
Whether this force is fighting zombies, "visitors from the abyss" like the Thorn Knights, or other human forces, the hotel's security department must be strengthened.
The list that Xue Wu handed over contained detailed information on the survivors who participated in the battle against the zombie horde the previous two days.
This includes their names, ages, performance in the fight against the zombie horde, and overall contributions.
However, the level of detail made Wang Xiao realize at a glance that this was not something Xue Wu could achieve.
Based on such a long period of contact, given Xue Wu's personality and skill level, it's highly unlikely that he could produce such detailed reports, except in combat.
Wang Xiao thought to himself, "This guy asked Zhao Yajun for help to satisfy himself."
After all, the extremely official tone, description, and layout are something that someone like him would find hard to forget once he's seen them.
Every record in the document was clearly marked, and even a preliminary assessment of each person's overall situation was noted after their name.
As Wang Xiao flipped through the pages, he nodded to himself in approval.
In terms of content, most of them are Xue Wu's own evaluations, but after Zhao Yajun's revisions, they look much better.
Without Zhao Yajun's embellishment, Wang Xiao could foresee that Xue Wu's evaluation of each person would not exceed two sentences.
The format is probably: Li XX. Male. 22. Then XXXXXXXX, that's it.
If the documents compiled by Zhao Yajun are 30 pages long, then the documents compiled by Xue Wu alone should not exceed 10 pages.
This made Wang Xiao feel a little envious of Xue Wu's luck.
In this situation, having a trustworthy relative by your side is already far more fortunate than being all alone like them.
Putting his thoughts aside, Wang Xiao refocused his attention on the list.
Without a doubt, everyone on this list is a survivor who has faced life-or-death situations.
After all, the fact that they survived this zombie horde already proves their strength and luck.
To survive in this apocalypse, you need both of these things.
Without strength, they would have died in the mouths of zombies long ago; without luck, they wouldn't have reached the Peace Hotel, let alone survived until now.
After a careful examination, Wang Xiao's gaze fell on a few names.
Among them was the small group consisting of Lao Xiao, the tall man, and Huang Mao, whom Wang Xiao had met yesterday.
Huang Mao also boasted to him last night that he would definitely join the hotel.
But whether or not someone can join isn't as simple as just talking. If they can't even get past Xue Wu, then they can forget about getting past themselves.
According to Xue Wu's records, this squad performed exceptionally well in the zombie horde.
Their first task was to scout the zombie horde. After completing the task, they not only provided timely support to the area of the hotel that had been breached at a critical moment, but also took the initiative to clear the zombies from the side of the hotel.
The team consisted of young people in their twenties who were brave and determined, worked together seamlessly, and acted decisively.
Although none of the six members of the team were ability users, they were one of the few teams that Xue Wu had specifically marked among the many participants, and thus could be included in the hotel's security department.
But Xue Wu's description alone is clearly insufficient.
He needs more detailed information.
In the apocalypse, every person hired by the hotel must be chosen with utmost care.
Having made up his mind, Wang Xiao picked up the communicator and called Xue Wu.
"Xue Wu, come to my room."
"Wei Yan, after you finish with Lu Ran, come with Xue Wu."
"Okay, boss."
"Yes."
……
"Knock knock knock".
The knocking sounded again.
Wang Xiao didn't even look up: "Go in."
Wei Yan and Xue Wu entered one after the other, saying, "Boss, you were looking for us?"
Wang Xiao handed the list to Wei Yan: "Take a look at this list, compiled by Xue Wu."
Wei Yan took the list, carefully flipped through it, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Uncle Xue, your list is even more detailed than my daily reports."
Upon hearing this, Xue Wu blushed instantly and said embarrassedly, "How could I have done that? My wife helped me."
Wang Xiao said, "Xue Wu, tell Wei Yan and me in detail about the people I marked."
Xue Wu glanced at it and began to verbally state his opinion of Lao Xiao's team: "Boss, here's the situation with these guys..."
After Xue Wu finished speaking, Wang Xiao lit a cigarette, leaned back in his chair, and said:
"The hotel is currently short-staffed. Wei Yan, you are the hotel's current manager. What are your thoughts on the few people Xue Wu just mentioned, and the upcoming staff expansion?"
Wei Yan put away the documents and said seriously, "Boss, I think we do need to expand recruitment now, but we can't rush it."
Explain your reasons.
"First of all, our hotel currently has limited supplies. If we recruit too many people at once, the consumption of supplies will increase exponentially, and we won't be able to hold out for long."
Secondly, expanding staff requires time to gel. If too many unfamiliar people are hired prematurely, internal conflicts could arise, potentially affecting the hotel's stability.
Wang Xiao nodded, a hint of approval in his eyes: "Continue."
"Therefore, I suggest that the first batch of recruitment should be 10 to 15 people, mainly to fill the vacancies in the security department and logistics department, and at the same time, appropriately supplement a few people with special skills."
Especially those who are knowledgeable in medicine.
We relied entirely on one doctor and one intern nurse to handle the injured this time. Without them, the number of casualties would probably have been even higher.
As for the specific candidates, I think we can wait until others have compiled a list, and then you, the boss, can personally conduct the interviews and assessments to ensure that everyone joining the hotel is trustworthy.
Wang Xiao extinguished the cigarette in his hand and said in a deep voice, "The idea is good, then let's do it your way."
The security department is primarily using Xue Wu's list for personnel selection, while also asking others to submit their lists of candidates as soon as possible, hoping to find some unexpected talents.
As for the interview and assessment, you will be in charge of that, with Xue Wu and Zhao Yajun assisting you. Report any problems directly to me.
"I'll participate in the final personnel confirmation, is that alright?"
Wei Yan nodded and said, "Understood."
Xue Wu said earnestly, "I promise I won't let you down, boss."
Wang Xiao added, "One more thing, during the review process, it is essential to clearly explain the hotel's rules."
"Yes, boss, I understand."
"Alright, that's the main thing I wanted to talk to you about today. Go ahead and get busy."
Xue Wu spoke up, "Boss, I have some issues to report."
Wang Xiao looked up and asked, "What?"
Xue Wu said seriously, "Boss, it's not just ordinary people who want to join us; there are also one or two people with special abilities who want to join our Peace Hotel."
"Ability user?"
At this moment, Wei Yan also spoke up: "Boss, I actually received it too."
But this time, Wang Xiao hesitated to make a judgment.
Those with special abilities are not ordinary people; they are not so easy to manage.
He wasn't worried about accidents happening when he was at the hotel; his real fear was that he wouldn't be there.
These outsiders were not the team he had built from scratch, so it would have been impossible for him to do so without any concerns.
Wang Xiao needed to carefully consider whether or not to accept a person with special abilities.
In Wang Xiao's original plan, the hotel was mainly intended to attract people with special abilities.
By establishing a mutually beneficial relationship with them, we can get them to contribute to the hotel, rather than directly recruiting capable individuals to join the hotel.
Without finding a way to turn ordinary people like Wei Yan into ability users, recruiting ability users into the hotel would be too risky for him, the hotel, and ordinary people like Wei Yan.
After a long pause, Wang Xiao looked at the two of them and said, "Let me think about this matter more carefully. President Qin, what's the situation over there? He's lost so many men in succession, he can't possibly not take action, can he?"
