I’m In Charge of SCP

Chapter 215: Reward Part 1

"Better than five million? Could it be ten million?" Zhang Jue's gaze brightened even more than it had just now.

Once O5 made a move, he knew there was something there, and he was really much more reliable than that Lei Shan.

However, in the next second, O5-8 shook his head again. "Advisor Zhang, what you and Dr. Yang Xue did is much harder and bigger than saving Site-14. The reward that the Foundation gives you cannot be measured in material terms."

Can't be measured in material terms. Translated, it means nothing. Translated again it means no money. There wasn't even a medal.

Hearing this, Zhang Jue's face instantly pulled down. "Old man, if you have nothing to offer then you don't have to make such a trip, a phone call is enough. After all, we're all quite busy."

As soon as he heard that there was no money, Zhang Jue flipped his face faster than a book, and he didn't even have an honorific anymore. If Hubbard and Yang Xue weren't still watching, he would have sent this O5 out the door right now.

O5-8 cried and laughed, "Advisor Zhang, don't you want to know what the reward really is?"

"No." Zhang Jue shook his head straight away before even thinking about it.

"Hey, okay." The old man turned to Yang Xue, "What about Dr. Yang? Do you want to hear about the Foundation's commendation for you?"

Yang Xue was different from Zhang Jue, she had been with the Foundation for many years. Her uncle, her father were all Foundation employees. She had a strong sense of belonging to the Foundation, so she was rather less obsessed with those things.

She slightly owed, "Give all the credit for this incident to Advisor Zhang and those fellows who sacrificed. I only played an insignificant role and I have no objection to how the Foundation should arrange it."

O5-8 nodded in satisfaction. Whenever possible, people like Yang Xue who were ready to sacrifice for humanity were what the Foundation needed most. The old man cleared his throat and took out something like a letter of appointment.

"In regards of Dr. Yang Xue's outstanding performance in a critical incident. The Foundation's headquarters research made a decision that the O5 council approved. No. SCP-CN-RESE-000151311, Senior Researcher Yang Xue clearance level is upgraded to Level 4. The position from Site-14 Deputy Head of Experiments promoted to Head of Experiments. She was also promoted to a Deputy Head of Experiments in Site-19. Mainly responsible for biological, organic chemistry and other SCP project research."

Although Zhang Jue said he didn't dare to be interested in the reward, he didn't drop a word of what O5-8 said. The rewards that the Foundation gave Yang Xue were not insignificant. First of all, the clearance level was upgraded from Level 3 (Confidential) to Level 4 (Top Secret) and promoted from Site-14 Deputy Head of Experiment to Head of Experiments.

Don't look at this only a small progress. With Yang Xue's age and seniority, it would have taken a few years to obtain this position. The Foundation previously sent Simmons to Site-14, I'm afraid that is to be the Head of Experiments. But this time Yang Xue made a big move, so the headquarters made something to her favor.

The good thing is that the Foundation has a lot of geniuses. For example, Yang Xue's father Yang Wensong. Yang Xue is considered a group of outstanding, but it will never trigger the discontent of others.

Lastly, there was also something important. Yang Xue was promoted to be the Site-14 Head of Experiments, but at the same time promoted as Site-19 Deputy Head of Experiment. Site-19, where the Foundation headquarters resides. The anomalous projects contained there are unknown.

Although Yang Xue was appointed to be only a deputy, but it is pretty much equivalent to the Head of Experiments. As long someone has a political mind about it, they'll know what it means. It can be said that as long as Yang Xue himself doesn't stop here and continue pursuing the career. The Foundation might give her the Site Director position in no time.

If you say that the clearance level is nothing, then this should convince you. This can be said to be the biggest recognition of an employee of the Foundation. If you look at the long term, it really is much better than a one-time material reward.

O5-8 finished reading it in one breath and smiled faintly at Yang Xue. "Supervisor Yang. Are you still satisfied with the Foundation's commendation for you?"

Hearing O5-8 ask this question, it is obvious that there is room for bargaining. Zhang Jue quickly started to Yang Xue. Hinting that they may be able to ask out some money or something, or even a set of houses.

But Yang Xue didn't look at him at all and her expression is a bit hesitant, "Promoted to be Site-14 Head of Experiments is not a problem, because I am familiar with some of the SCP. But for Site-19 Deputy Head of Experiment, I'm afraid... it's going to be difficult to work with. Besides, the headquarters is in Switzerland, I am in China. I'm afraid it's not very convenient to work on both places."

Hearing Yang Xue say this, Zhang Jue wanted to go up and cover her mouth. This could probably the worst thing that she could say, how troubling. In his world, this kind of behavior is condemned by God. But this promotion is proposed by the headquarters, they naturally have to considere Yang Xue's concerns.

O5-8 smiled and said, "Supervisor Yang, don't worry. You can still carry out your work in Site-14 and on the headquarters. You can come once every two months and given to you to be responsible for biological and organic chemistry-related projects is your expertise to help the researchers at headquarters. Other than that, they could do other things pretty well. There are no major work and you can still do some of the work."

What had just been said told us that Yang Xue were not allowed to refuse the offer. Otherwise, it will be considered as insensitive. Yang Xue could only bow and accept the letter of appointment in the old man's hand.

The old man smiled and looked at Yang Xue, comforting her, "Young girl, I have read your resume. Keep up the good work. I believe that in no time, you will certainly become the Foundation's most influential person."

Yang Xue once again bent down to give thanks. O5-8 turned his gaze back to Zhang Jue.

"How about it, Advisor Zhang? Are you now interested in hearing about the rewards the old man brings to you?"

Shit, this Old Man really is relentless.

Zhang Jue hummed, "You can talk about it first, but let me tell you this. I'm just listening to it, accepting it or not is still up for debate."

The old man smiled brightly. "Good, then I will say it to you first to hear."

Saying that, he received another letter from Hubbard and after handing it to him, Hubbard turned around and surprisingly left the room. It was obvious that there were some things about Zhang Jue that surprisingly even he didn't have the authority to know.

Yang Xue looked at Hubbard who had left and then at Zhang Jue. She took the initiative to walk towards the door. However, O5-8 reached out to stop her.

"Supervisor Yang you don't need to go. You can be a witness for this meeting."

Since the old man had spoken, Yang Xue stayed. In fact, she wanted to stay because she was also a bit curious as to what kind of reward the Foundation was planning to give Zhang Jue.

Seeing them making a show of it, Zhang Jue waved his hand in annoyance. "Okay, okay. Enough with the pretentiousness, old man. Hurry up and tell me what kind of reward there is, the game I'm playing is open for the event and I'm still in a hurry to do the quest."
