Thinking of the power of the fund, he remembered something else.
In Bali, Fringe Fund introduced more than 3,000 sanitation workers to relevant government departments, which is about the same number as the number of sanitation workers directly employed by the government.
The direct consequence of this was that four months ago, more than 600 sanitation workers in Bali suddenly went on strike and marched to demand a wage increase.
This famous international metropolis has a population of more than 10 million. It seems that these 600 people are just an insignificant small group and have nothing to do with other people.
But if they go out of business, not only will Bali become a smelly garbage dump, but it will also affect the orderly operation of other aspects of the entire city.
This is a very common thing in Europe. After a while, sanitation workers in a big city suddenly go on strike because of the wishes of some groups hidden behind the scenes.
But this time, the Bali official just said calmly: "Pay attention to the order of the parade and don't cause traffic jams."
The salary increase thing just stopped.
However, Pedro keenly felt that there were two groups of gods fighting here. One group was the people behind the fringe funds, and the other group was those who hoped to gain some kind of benefit from the sanitation workers' strike.
In the end, the sanitation workers hired by the government ceased to work, while the temporary workers from the fund still went to and from get off work normally. It was obvious who won and who lost.
After he figured it out, he asked again: "It seems that the fund will expand rapidly in Gaul next, so how should we deal with the officials?"
Sophie did not answer his question, but handed him a document. Pedro took the document and looked through it in confusion. After just looking at it for a while, he screamed in surprise.
"What is this? Fringe Fund Gaul employment statistics table?!"
Pedro looked at the number of people distributed in various cities in Gaul in shock. In total, in addition to the work-study program for college students in Gaul, a total of 15,587 marginalized people from the bottom of society were employed by the black intermediary of the Edge Fund.
No wonder the fund is facing a strike by sanitation workers. The people behind the scenes are not afraid of threatening them. It has attracted more than 13,000 homeless people just six months after it opened, including 7,000 people in Bali alone.
Compared to the social unrest that these marginalized people may cause if they are suddenly knocked back to their original form and lose their minds, the strike of 600 sanitation workers is just a drop in the bucket.
Besides, Fringe Fund also has more than 3,000 temporary workers employed by relevant government departments, so the official attitude four months ago was obviously biased in favor of Fringe Fund, a black intermediary.
Officially, there was nothing to worry about, but after Pedro calculated the money his employees remitted each month, he felt a tingling sensation in his scalp.
At five hundred dollars per person per day, all regions in Gaul combined will remit $233 million every month, and this is just the Gaul region!
In other parts of the world, who knows how many other black intermediaries Sophie and the others have opened of this type, using the name of a public welfare fund to help marginalized people and college students to practice, but in fact they are used to transfer huge amounts of money?
Ten minutes later, Pedro walked out of the office building numbly. The stimulation given to him today was really great.
Walking on the street, he saw several Albarians standing in front of the ATM machine on the street. Needless to say, they must be depositing money.
He couldn't figure out where the fringe fund came from so much money, but he didn't waste his brain cells thinking about it anymore. After all, the next four months would be a huge turning point in his life. How high the upper limit can be depends on how well he has done in the past four months!
Suddenly he heard Milu's voice.
"Hey - Pedro, why are you still here? What? I finally figured it out, so I said, why are you so stubborn? Come on, let's go have a drink."
He looked at Milu and several Albarians looking at him with surprised eyes. These people obviously didn't expect that he was still wandering around at this time. Usually, he stayed in his rental house and browsed various books. kind of recruitment information.
"Okay, I just want to relax today."
After Pedro said hello to a few people, he thought about it and decided to go for a wave with Milu and the others.
After a group of people entered a bar in the 10th District, this place was a favorite bar for Albarian employees in the 10th District. They also helped to look after the bar in their spare time, and the boss often gave them free orders.
Pedro and the others casually found a few seats at the bar and sat down. The bartender was surprised when he saw that Pedro was also hanging out here today.
"Hey, look who is this? Why do you have time to come here today?"
Not only him, but many other Albarians also looked at Pedro in surprise.
"Everyone, I have good news to announce. I'm treating you tonight!" Pedro stood up and said loudly under the gaze of a group of fellow villagers.
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of Albarians began to boo.
"Wow - Pedro, what's wrong with you? Tell me what good news you have, please tell me?"
"Haha, I knew you could do it, so I think you're quite interesting!"
Milu next to him also looked at him in surprise and said loudly: "Did you finally find a new job?"
After Milu said this, everyone else looked at Pedro, trying to make sure it was true.
Finding a serious job is a distant dream for these Albarians in Bali. All of them either idle around all day and rely on welfare benefits, or join Albarian gangs.
There are only a few people like Pedro who have not given up yet, but looking at the current situation, Pedro finally succeeded?
Everyone is waiting for his answer.
Pedro said with certainty in everyone's expectant eyes: "Yes! Edge Fund officially hired me just half an hour ago!"
"Whoa! Let's celebrate with a drink for Pedro!"
"cheers!"
After a glass of wine, Pedro continued: "I am now the director of the market expansion department of Edge Fund's Gaul branch, and I need your help with some things!"
Before everyone could continue cheering for him, Pedro added: "I am the only one in the Mayor's Extension Department for now."
Ha ha ha ha--
Everyone was amused by him, but after laughing, Milu asked: "Then what is your job?"
Pedro continued: "We need your help. The fund is preparing to expand rapidly throughout Gaul. Do you know anyone in other parts of Gaul? It depends on you."
"no problem!"
"It's up to us. My cousin and the others cover a street in Marseille. If you want to recruit people, I can introduce them to you."
"My uncle's whole family went to Provence. If you need anything, let me know!"
"I have a friend in Lyon."
"I have one..."
After Pedro just finished talking about his job, many people reacted. Is the fund going to recruit people elsewhere in Gaul?
Although the fund had planted its flag in other cities before, its main focus was on Bali. Now after hearing the news, everyone has joined forces.
In the past few months of working, many people have carefully calculated their accounts. Working as a temporary worker in a fund may seem like a small amount of money every day, but it is enough for daily consumption, and occasionally you can go out for a while.
It’s much more practical than joining other fellow villagers’ clubs and being a pony boy. It’s just a job after all. After all, not everyone wants to be a gangster. Who would risk their lives all day long if they can have a job!
The group partied until ten o'clock and then dispersed. Pedro did pay for everyone as he promised, which caused another round of cheers. He touched the bank card in his pocket and saw that it was Sophie in his pocket. The one I gave him before leaving contained 100 million knives.
Thinking of this, Pedro smiled bitterly in his heart. Aren't the fringe funds afraid that I would just take the money and run away?
He admitted that for a moment he actually had the idea of running away.
But when he thought of the $2.33 per month, all the evil thoughts disappeared. The other party had this kind of energy and was really not afraid of him running away. He didn't dare to challenge how powerful this fringe fund was.
"Hahaha, Pedro, you finally came through!"
After the show, Milu and him were still happy for him on the way home, and at the same time they were happy for themselves, which showed that everyone had hope.
At this time, Pedro got down to business, "Milu, tomorrow I will register a society - the Marginal People's Mutual Aid Association, which aims to allow fringe fund employees to help each other."
After hearing this, Milu asked doubtfully: "How can I help?"
Pedro simply explained: "Members who join the society must pay some meager membership fees regularly as funds. For example, if you have any difficulties, you can report to the society and everyone will help you solve it. When you need money, you can Utilize mutual aid funds, and if the fund encounters some out-of-market troubles, it will be up to the community to come forward to solve the problem."
After hearing this, Milu suddenly realized and said: "Isn't this a legal gang? It sounds no different from the gangs from the hometown."
Pedro was choked by this answer, but he explained patiently: "Of course it's different. At least Marginal Mutual Aid will not take the initiative to do those criminal things. In fact, its functions are similar to those of labor unions.
Milu, I hope you can be the president of this association. "
