Chapter 1302: Tree Mall Security Meeting

Chapter 1302: Tree Mall Security Meeting

As the PandaVerse Festival was just a few days away, everyone in Jin’s store was getting more and more hectic with the preparations. For the first time, Jin was pulling ropes from all the owners that were in his Tree Mall to push this event further. 

There was a huge meeting which also involved the offices and companies that were separated from the current shopping mall which provided goods and services to customers. Jin had made sure that everyone had to send a representative to come for the major meeting.

“Thanks all for coming, as most of you guys have noticed, the PandaVerse Festival is coming in a week’s time and I am conducting this meeting to give a short briefing not just on the PandaVerse Festival but the security procedures for the Mall as well,” Jin said as he sent an email to each of the representatives that were in that meeting as well as putting up a huge PowerPoint slide right behind him in the Conference Meeting Instance.

Jin told them that with the recent incidents that were happening in Shenzhen, it would be best to at least set up a security and safety protocol in the event that things went south. He honestly did not want those people working to be held hostage unnecessarily.

“I have temporarily set up and allocated a few NPCs in each and every dungeon instance, you guys will see who you all will be assigned with as per the email that I had sent. Some companies might have more due to their sheer size while the rest would typically be assigned with one security NPC. If you think there is trouble, open up your Pandamonium App and request the App for help.” Jin explained.

“The Security NPC will try their best to annihilate the threat unless it deems that people around them are in danger, it will prioritise protecting you guys. At the same time, the App will immediately call the police who will be on standby in one of the rented Shop Instances and assist in the situation.

“Wow, you mean, you managed to get the police to station here in the Tree Mall?” One of the company representatives asked and Jin nodded his head. “Like I said, with the current volatile situation that we are in, I deemed that the safety of my tenants is paramount and contracted them to aid us. Besides, Tiangong Police and I had an amicable relationship.” Jin replied and everyone at the table was complimenting Jin on his responsibility for safety.

“Not only that, but I have also hired several private contractors that will keep the place safe in plainclothes and they too will be aiding with keeping the peace in the area,” Jin added though only one person among the entire group of company representatives knew the real reason.h

Qiu Yue had previously employed Karaoke Owner Man Tang to employ a few ex military and police personnel into her payroll and she finally revealed that scheme to Jin that there was actually a small army that could be deployed anytime under Man Tang’s leadership if Jin needed. 

Obviously, the Dungeon Supplier was shocked at Qiu Yue’s previous scheme as well as a concern but this will significantly boost the security surveillance of the Tree Mall. The Police Captain was aware of it and also instructed his policeman about such a force walking around as they predicted that the crowd would be in the thousands.

Jin did not know whether it was deliberate or not but there was footage that was going around the internet of Jin aiding the police in breaking the siege at the Exhibition Centre. Seeing how the up and coming Dungeon Supplier who refused to join the Dungeon Symposium ended up being the Dungeon Supplier that rescued all those arrogant Dungeon Suppliers that were stuck in there. 

It showed that he not only had the skills to make the Dungeon Instances but also a capable cultivator, which showed the world that his monsters would at least be decent stuff even for high level cultivators and this PandaVerse Festival could potentially be the entry for them to get sucked into Dungeons and Panda.

So that leaked footage alone had garnered a lot of curiosity as well as cultivators buying the tickets to come for the Festival. Even people from other countries had heard about it and some had decided to take the risk of coming to try this out. 

Hence if this is a success, the next festival could not only attract more people locally but the attractive overseas tourism that would bring prosperity to the local business as well. Thus, this event must succeed and bring any possible threats as quietly as Jin could.

At the same time, Kong Rong was working overtime to make sure he picked up any threats that could arise from the PandaVerse Festival. He even started to make a smaller separate team that he could trust to work on the Defence Minister’s betrayal. However, like Jin, he could not trust anyone unless they were working for the System so he was thinking about whether to get his newest team to meet Jin so they could be initiated into the System. But for now, he tasked that team to catch any possible signals of the Banned Emperor movements.

Back at the meeting, the company representatives eventually applauded Jin’s security initiative and thus Jin brought the meeting to a close. However, there was one who raised his hand and subsequently queried if they would receive any benefits from the PandaVerse Festivals like free tickets or such.

“Sorry, Lai Fu. Don’t be such a cheapskate and pay the standard price.” Jin gleed towards Fresh Price Shop Owner before he teleported off. 

“You are the cheapskate Jin for not giving us any free tickets after working under you!” Lai Fu said and boo loudly. Everyone in the meeting chuckled as most of them knew how he was one of the first few owners that came to the Tree Mall.

“Well, you tried Lai Fu. you tried.” Sheng Si Fang consoled his dear buddy, “If he doesn’t give you one, then I could get you one myself.” 

“Oh please, it’s not as if I cannot buy one myself. Don’t worry. Let’s get those tickets and rob that Dungeon Supplier blind by obtaining all the rewards.” Lai Fu said and his friend shook hands as if agreeing to do the same. Even though they knew their limits, it did not mean they could not dream big.

And with PandaVerse, anything is possible.
