Chapter 419: The new Ghost Agent Recruits
Translator: _Min_Editor: Caron_
Something worth mentioning was that the teens and young adults were easy to trick.
A society with great social benefits allowed people to be fed without needing to work, but it could also kill a person's drive. Why would so many foolish people run to IS to become sex slaves and soldiers? People in most developing countries thought it was incomprehensible foolishness. But from a different perspective, most were searching for excitement to appease the adventurist spirit hidden in their genes.
Of course, Jiang Chen was recruiting agents, not terrorists.
In seven days, Celestial Trade received a total of 437,401 applicants from all over the world. Just like what Jiang Chen expected, most of the applicants were from western Europe, some were from Russia and even South America. Because of the influence of tradition, applicants from Asia and the Middle East made up only a small percentage. Due to the lack of internet infrastructure in Africa, the number of applicants from there was nearly zero.
Jiang Chen was pleased with this result. It would be against his intentions if he tricked his own people.
After seven days of deliberation, Ayesha chose 117 qualified applicants from the four hundred thousand applicants and forwarded them to Celestial Trade. Immediately after, Barkary responded to the applicants and arranged plane tickets along with necessary documents.
These people boarded different flights and finally arrived in Melbourne before taking a chartered flight to Coro Island.
The third day.
Under the bright sunshine, around one hundred lively figures walked out of the Coro airport. They had colorful luggage, wore beach clothes and slippers, and looked like a planned field trip group from a high school.
They had varying skin colors, but most of them were white.
The high number of foreigners simultaneously showing up at the airport made locals turn their heads. Even with the increasing number of tourists, this was not a common occurrence.
On the street not far away, Jiang Chen asked Ayesha while facepalming:
”Why did you just choose girls?”
Ayesha tilted her head and used a defensive tone:
”Didn't you tell me to do as I wanted?”
Although Jiang Chen didn't mind, in Ayesha's traditional culture, a qualified wife could not have excessive contact with men other than her husband, let alone lead training where contact was common. Therefore, even if 80% of the applicants were male, she stubbornly chose a hundred females out of the remaining 20%.
Because Jiang Chen trusted Ayesha so much, he didn't even ask for information about the selected applicants beforehand.
Jiang Chen was speechless as he let out a sigh, his head throbbing.
”Okay. That's fine, just train them well… All in all, I'll have to count on you for this since I have to return to the other side soon.”
He was prepared to make a speech to the new recruits, but upon seeing all the chatty girls, Jiang Chen lost interest. He left Ayesha in charge and took off by himself.
Staring at Jiang Chen's back, Ayesha nodded with seriousness.
Her serious expression meant that the new recruits would suffer.
Jiang Chen didn't realize that the ”Ghost Agents” who could make people tremble in fear were surprisingly born on this ordinary morning.
…
When the girls got off the plane, they waited at the spot instructed by the email.
For a lot of them, it was their first time leaving the country. Everything here seemed so refreshing to them. They exchanged names on the plane already, but now, they gathered in small groups taking photos and discussing how to spend their 80-day ”vacation.”
