Working: Start by earning the boss a hundred million!

Chapter 5 Stealing a Base? Moving!
Police had set up a cordon at the foot of the mountain, and people were being carried down the mountain one after another, but none of them could see the raging fire on the mountain or the people by the thatched huts.

Shen Luo came down from the mountain and landed by the thatched hut. He squatted down to treat the wounds of several veterans.

“Manager Shen, this was our oversight. There was thunder and rain last night, the signal was bad, and the information was sent out, but we failed to inform the head office in time,” the oldest soldier sighed.

"You've done a great job. If it weren't for you, those people might not have even made it to the rescue. I've already subdued all the spirits and monsters that have become sentient on the mountain. As for the signal tower, I'll keep urging the boss, you know that..."

"We know the company is short of money," another young soldier said honestly.

"Don't worry, the boss has found us a very smart accountant who's great at making money. The company will have plenty of cash," Shen Luo promised.

Cheng Mai: "..." She could hear it; she wasn't deaf or scared.

Shen Luo offered a few words of comfort, left some snacks and drinks that he had somehow managed to obtain, and then left with Cheng Mai.

On the way, Chengmai remained quiet for a long time.

There is no need to endure it anymore.

"So you've been watching me all along, haven't you?"

After finishing his business, Shen Luo said meticulously, "To be precise, we were after your brain, so we initially chose Cheng Ying."

Cheng Mai looked puzzled.

"However, after we got to know Cheng Ying for a while, we found that although she was intelligent, she was also malicious and extremely jealous. Generally speaking, even if the divine consciousness of a wise deity was lost in the mortal world, it would not choose such a person as its host. So the boss investigated and found that someone was using forbidden techniques in the mortal world, such as the Mind Transfer Array."

"So you set me up from the very beginning just to get me to sign a contract with your company?"

Shen Luo showed no remorse whatsoever. "We had no choice. Look how poor the company is! Those veterans were guarding the mountain for us by Wuchang. If we could pay them, we wouldn't be making them work for free, right?"

What happened to those veterans?

"Without finding the remains, there is no way to reincarnate. On the battlefield, the situation changes in an instant. Some bodies are buried in the yellow sand, some are buried in the snow, and some are buried at sea. All we can do is let their souls return to their hometowns based on their memories, and then try our luck. If we can find the bodies and let them rest in their roots, they can be reincarnated. If not, they can only stay like this forever."

Cheng Mai sighed, turned around and looked at the few people still sitting by the thatched hut, filled with respect.

"So, you need to work hard to make money so we can focus more on helping them, right?" Shen Luo slapped Cheng Mai on the shoulder. "Young man, you have a long way to go."

Cheng Mai was almost hit so hard she suffered internal injuries; all she wanted to do now was kill!
"Can I resign now?"

"Okay, but once you resign, besides those with impure motives, I reckon quite a few monsters and demons will also be interested in your brain, maybe..."

"Make money, make money, make money well."

Shen Luo smiled with satisfaction.

Cheng Mai thought to himself, others are evil capitalists, they are evil superhumans.

"Did you find someone to impersonate me and go to the Cheng Group, as I asked you before?" Cheng Mai got down to business.

“It was taken care of for you early this morning. The person who took on the task is called Yun Changsheng. He’s originally from Sichuan and his specialty is face-changing.”

"A man?" Cheng Mai looked at herself. Was it because her feminine features weren't obvious?

"It's also possible to undergo gender reassignment surgery," Shen Luo added.

Cheng Mai was shocked; this brother was incredibly capable. "Today, Changsheng has already transformed into your appearance and gone to the Cheng Group. Just as you expected, most of the board members are against you, and since this morning, he's been pulling off one outrageous maneuver after another."

"We've been waiting for their antics. Let them do what they want," Cheng Mai said. "I'll give you a list. In the next few days, have him use the name of the Cheng Group to retaliate against these people. The more loud and clear the retaliation, the better."

Within ten days at the latest, she will definitely clean up all the garbage inside the Cheng Group.

Back at the company, Shen Luo generously set aside a separate office for her in the small office area.

I was just sitting in the office, and all I could hear were cries of agony.

They are violently interrogating those mountain spirits who were captured today.

Cheng Mai: "..." He's going further and further down the path of crime.

Some plaster fell from the roof and landed in her cup.

Cheng Mai looked up at the trembling light with a blank expression, and said with barely suppressed anger, "Move! We have to move!"

There was complete silence outside in an instant.

Shen Luo poked his head in, slightly excited, and said, "Are you going to sneak into the house while the boss is away?"

"That's right!"

Whoever wants to work in this godforsaken place, can work in this godforsaken place.

Anyway, she refused!
Cheng Mai is a man of action, and he quickly led everyone to the new environment, the former Cheng Ying Studio.

With the change of ownership of the Cheng Group, Cheng Ying is completely beyond recovery.

Cheng Mai brought over a few people who looked relatively normal. There were still some staff members inside who hadn't left, and everyone looked at her with contempt and hatred.

"This place is great, this location is great, it's sunny, little lucky charm, can I sit here?" Employee number one asked excitedly.

"Ah, no light, I'm afraid of light!" The delicate little male ghost, pale-faced, hid to the side with his pinky finger raised. "I like this place because there's no light."

"This reception desk is nice, I like it. And this computer is much more advanced than our old desktop. Can we keep it?" Shen Luo asked excitedly.

"Miss Cheng, what are you doing? We haven't left yet." The head of the studio, Cheng Ying's former agent, stepped forward and scolded.

Cheng Mai leaned against the reception desk, looking at the person questioning him, "Can't you tell?"

"I can see that now. Bringing a bunch of thugs to cause trouble is exactly what Miss Cheng would do," the manager said disdainfully.

The old tree spirit, Old Willow, was so angry that he stretched out a branch to slap the woman, but the little male ghost beside him pressed down on his wrist, saying, "You can't break the rules."

Cheng Mai raised his hand and touched the tip of his nose, looking at his agent with a half-smile. "Didn't Agent Zhong receive the email? If I remember correctly, Cheng Ying's studio was disbanded last night. This is my Cheng Group's territory. You're standing on my Cheng Mai's floor. I'll give you ten minutes to disappear from here, or I'll have to ask security to kick you out."

The agent trembled with anger: "A petty person has gotten his way."

Cheng Mai smiled, "So don't mess with me, or this vengeful little man might accidentally make Manager Zhong leave this industry forever."

After Cheng Mai finished speaking, he glanced down at his watch and said, "Eight minutes. Hurry up and pack up. Get back here and get out!"
