Chapter 10: Chapter 10 A Little Compensation_1

```

In the office, Fang Cheng turned on his computer and logged into a Q&A platform, where he posed his question, "I'm a first-time game studio boss and not very experienced. What should I pay attention to?"

It wasn't long before a myriad of answers appeared, but a three-word answer quickly rose to the top.

"Don't owe wages."

These three simple words, laden with so much pain, spoke volumes of the sorrow of those who had suffered from unpaid salaries.

The other answers were even more interesting, ranging from admonishments against office romances, reminders to pay attention to cash flow, and advice against useless benefits like afternoon teas, team building exercises, and group workouts.

As long as the wages are maxed out, I'm all yours, day and night.

To this, Fang Cheng wholeheartedly agreed.

In his previous life, in order to comprehend the Heavenly Heart and accumulate virtue, he had deliberately opened up his granaries to distribute food after a terrible drought. With enough rice porridge and pickled vegetables to go around, it wasn't long before he was almost offered the imperial yellow robe—this showed the effectiveness of maxing out one's "salary."

After thinking it over for a bit more, Fang Cheng took out some Spiritual Tea he had cultivated and sealed it in a jar. Then, he put a Spirit Talisman he had forged into a brocade pouch to create an Amulet, and slipped it into his pocket as a welcome gift for new employees.

Although their effects were minimal, they did carry the blessing of Immortal Spell, making them quite a unique souvenir.

With the gifts ready, Fang Cheng approached Xu Qingling's workstation and placed the gifts on her desk before asking, "Does your foot still hurt?"

"How did you know!" Xu Qingling asked in surprise.

Then, her face reddened slightly, realizing she must have made too much noise outside.

She laughed awkwardly, twisted her ankle, and then said in surprise, "Strange, it doesn't hurt anymore. My ankles are quite sensitive, and injuries usually cause me pain for a couple of days, but nothing seems to work. I guess I'm lucky today."

"Then you should drink more Spiritual Tea," Fang Cheng suggested.

He patted his little gift package and sat down next to Xu Qingling, noticing she had already finished going through the job postings he had previously circulated.

Not only that, but she had downloaded both games he had made, played through them quickly, and started composing job advertisements with targeted suggestions.

Indeed, she was the reliable person he had hoped for.

Pleased, Fang Cheng nodded and asked, "Let's put the job posting aside for now. What do you think of these two games?"

"Hmm... not fun," she bluntly replied.

Despite speaking to her boss, Xu Qingling didn't intend to sugarcoat her words, instead, she offered her honest opinion.

"Why is that?" Fang Cheng asked, eager to hear more.

"What?"

"Nothing," Xu Qingling said sweetly, "the boss isn't here. But you can leave your resume with me. The boss asked me to receive you."

After reading through the young man's resume, Xu Qingling thought for a moment, then asked, "Your previous jobs were unrelated to gaming. Why did you suddenly decide to enter the gaming industry?"

The young man candidly replied, "I heard that gaming pays well, and I'm in need of money lately."

"Hmm, I see. So, you mean to say if there's a more lucrative job, you'd switch to that industry immediately?"

"That's the idea, yes. Actually, my top choice is the Finance position at New Oriental Wealth Building's Dancing Consultation, but unfortunately, they're not hiring now."

Xu Qingling appreciated the young man's candor and also liked the content of his resume.

So, she picked up her phone and made a call, "Hello, Uncle Wang? I have a finance talent here. Could you please take him in? What about the salary package? Hold on a moment."

Covering the phone, she asked the young man, "What's your ideal salary?"

"Ten thousand..."

Nodding, Xu Qingling continued on the phone, "Offer him thirty thousand then, as compensation from me. Is fifteen salaries per year okay?"

The young man was so stunned by this pie from the sky that it sounded more like a joke to him, making him nod dumbly.

"All right."

Putting the phone down, Xu Qingling gave the young man Mr. Wang's phone number, "Go to New Oriental Wealth Building and call this number. You can start today. Just act normally, and Uncle Wang will give me this face. If you encounter any problems in the future, contact me."

After sending off the young man, still dizzy from the shock, Xu Qingling flexed her pale fingers and continued working.

Today, she must complete this recruitment task.

Meanwhile, Fang Cheng floated within the void, pondering which world to choose.

The universe is vast beyond measure, with a number of planets like the sands of the Ganges—countless.

If he can't find the right one, he can always leap out of this small world and continue the search in other small worlds.

If there's still no luck in other small worlds, he can turn to the Netherworld, exploring dreams, where he surely would find the right one.

Before long, Fang Cheng used his Divine Sense to lock onto another world.

Stepping through the void, in the next moment, he was within that world.

Looking over this battle-scarred world and after evaluating the situation, Fang Cheng felt he had come to the right place.
