"Okay, now let me announce the list of outstanding employees!"

Under everyone's expectant gaze, Lin Xiaoxiao unfolded the thin piece of paper in her hand: "First, the plantation workers' group, the outstanding employee they selected is Li Shanshan!"

As soon as Lin Xiaoxiao finished speaking, a slim middle-aged woman in the crowd immediately stood up with excitement on her face.

As the lady walked onto the stage, Lin Xiaoxiao explained with a smile, "This evaluation process uses a combination of supervisor recommendations and worker voting to ensure fairness and openness. Our supervisors from the Government Affairs Office also witnessed and recorded the voting process.

Therefore, every outstanding employee deserves the title, let us applaud these hard-working people!"

There was thunderous applause. The outstanding employee who came on stage to receive the award was so excited that he was trembling when speaking. He stammered and couldn't say a complete sentence. In the end, he could only bow violently to Lin Xiaoxiao to express his gratitude.

"Don't worship me. I'm not the God of Wealth who grants every wish. The person you should be most grateful for getting this outstanding employee title is your hard work. You deserve it."

After holding the person and stopping her from bowing, Lin Xiaoxiao pinned a golden badge on the lady's clothes. The words "Excellent Employee" on it were as red as the sun.

"Well, I will work hard and strive to have you give me the award next time."

Holding the lady's hand, Lin Xiaoxiao shook it vigorously twice: "Okay, I look forward to your next grand appearance."

Amidst warm applause, Lin Xiaoxiao awarded medals to each outstanding employee. Many of them were so excited that they were incoherent, which made the atmosphere at the scene unprecedentedly high.

The award ceremony came to an end in a joyous atmosphere. Lin Xiaoxiao looked at the residents who were communicating with each other below the stage with a smile.

“Dear residents, this appraisal activity has allowed us to see the talented and outstanding workers, and also witnessed everyone’s strong professionalism.

Spring has arrived and everything is thriving. I believe every resident of the shelter is missing the days when they lived on the ground, and this spring banquet is the beginning of our hope for the shelter to return to life on the ground.

From today onwards, the Spring Market on the ground level will be open permanently, and residents who want to do business can apply for a stall on their own.

Finally, I wish you all a happy time today."

Fireworks exploded, and golden ribbons fell in the morning light. Lin Xiaoxiao waved her hand and jumped off the stage, blending into the crowd.

When people reacted, Lin Xiaoxiao's figure had already disappeared from the square. They were still shocked by the news that Lin Xiaoxiao had just said.

After two years of living underground, are they finally going to return to the surface? Will they be able to wake up every day and see the sun shining through the windows again?

The originally lively venue fell into silence, and gradually suppressed crying sounds were heard, but they were quickly drowned out by people's heated discussions.

"Why are you crying? It's a good thing to be able to live on the surface. I just don't know if we'll be allowed to build a house then. If we can build one ourselves, we can build our own little yard and grow our favorite vegetables in it. It's a beautiful thought."

Some people were cheerfully comforting their family members with red eyes, some were discussing whether to start a small business in the future, and more people turned around and walked into the open-air market with colorful flags hanging behind them.

Because of the lack of time, the people from the Civil Affairs Department simply compacted the foundation at the originally designated market location and invited earth-type ability users to build a one-meter-high earthen wall.

The market is divided into stalls, and there are several small stalls set up inside. The first thing that catches the eye is a small shop selling sweet soup occupying the entrance.

Seeing someone coming in, the owner immediately stood up and greeted them: "We just made some rock sugar snow pear today, two bone coins a bowl. Would you like to try one?"

Continue walking in and you will see a snack stall selling everything from stinky tofu to French fries. At the end, you can see several hunting team members wearing gold badges standing in front of the stall selling their prey.

Many people stopped in front of the food stalls to queue up to buy food, but some residents went straight to the hunters' stalls with bags.

These are small vendors who have ordered food ingredients from the hunting team. If they were not participating in the evaluation event today, they would have set up their stalls long ago.

At this time, Lin Xiaoxiao, who had sneaked away while everyone was not reacting, appeared at the hunting team member recruitment site, which was quite lively at this time.

After squeezing through the crowd, Lin Xiaoxiao finally saw the people who were taking the physical fitness test in the venue. Some were hanging on the barrier and couldn't get down, while others fell into the mud as soon as they grabbed the swing rope.

After watching for a full half hour, no one could pass the physical fitness test, let alone the most basic outdoor common sense test. The test results were more terrible than each other.

It was already noon, and still no one had passed the assessment. The onlookers were all wondering, "Could it be that the assessment is too difficult? Are the members of the project patrol team struggling to complete it?"

"That's right, if no one can pass, why set up the assessment? Isn't this just a disguised way of discouraging people from joining?"

The sun was high in the sky, and the noisy discussions of the crowd were a headache. Lin Xiaoxiao immediately pushed through the crowd and said loudly, "The recruitment standards for the hunting team are absolutely fair. These assessment items are the most basic for hunting teams and patrol teams.

If you don't believe me, you can randomly name a few members to come up on stage and demonstrate. I'll also show you how hard the patrol and hunting team members train."

Naturally, no one dared to refute Lin Xiaoxiao since she spoke personally, so the audience immediately selected four players from the group to go on stage to demonstrate.

The four people selected were all women and ordinary people in the patrol team. They were the shortest and thinnest among all the team members, and looked quite weak at first glance.

Looking at the four selected team members, Lin Xiaoxiao did not say anything to stop them. She just made way and blew the whistle to start the assessment.

beep!

As a sharp whistle sounded, the four female players who were originally standing upright rushed out like arrows. It was when they ran that people saw their muscles bulging due to the exertion.

Jump, climb, crawl, shoot...

The four female team members completed the assessment items that originally seemed quite difficult in just over a minute. Their smooth and handsome movements made the noisy crowd shut up.

Arriving at the finish line, Lin Xiaoxiao smiled and handed the microphone to them: "Do you have any words for the people who want to join the hunting team?"

Taking the microphone without blushing or beating her heart, a lady arrogantly said: "If you are not good at it, just practice more. Just because you can't do it doesn't mean others can't. You have good taste in choosing me."

Another woman came up and added: "Don't be too confident. If you want to brag, you should practice more."

Seeing many people in the audience looking unhappy, Lin Xiaoxiao chuckled and said, "I believe you are all ambitious people. Then go back and practice more and strive to pass the test successfully next time."
