Officialdom: Reborn in the 90s, all I want to do is quit my job and make money.

I'm not!

That piercing cry was filled with a reborn person's indictment of fate.

Lin Yu used all his strength.

However, it was of no use.

His voice was completely drowned out by the wailing of Li Datou and the others, without a single echo.

"It's him!"

"Your Highness! He is our god! Lin Yu!"

Li Datou pointed at Lin Yu with such pride that it was as if he were introducing his biological father to the whole world.

Abdullah immediately looked at Lin Yu and sized him up from head to toe.

Lin Yu froze.

No, I didn't do it, you've mistaken me for someone else!

Like, comment, and share; dislike, comment, and share (but not in any other way).

Alarm bells rang in Lin Yu's mind.

What a joke!

How can you admit it at a time like this!

He could understand why Li Datou and Wang Jianguo, those two brutes, would kneel down.

But damn it, how come Qin Fugui, that bastard who just joined us, also knelt down? And he knelt so smoothly, so earnestly!

This unscientific!

God knows how many outrageous details these show-offs added when they were bragging on the train!

Will you take my personal "little hobbies" as a biographical sketch?

Especially that guy named Abdullah, his name sounds like he's a ruthless person.

This man is no businessman!

He's clearly a desperate criminal!

Getting involved with this kind of person before the time bomb you planted yourself completely explodes is definitely not a good thing!

As for bestowing titles upon gods? Or creating gods?

Lin Yu glanced at the group of leaders watching the show behind him out of the corner of his eye.

Zhao Dagong, Li Dakang, Liang Wenyuan, Li Xiangqian...

Damn, not one is missing, they're all here!

These old foxes all had "Good job, reward me!" written all over their faces!

Can't you guys stay away from me?!

The employer and employee remain true to their original aspirations: to resign and start their own business! To become an ordinary but extraordinary business tycoon in the south!

If you bunch of old fogies really put me on a pedestal, how am I supposed to make a living? I'd probably be dragged back to heaven the moment I arrived at the airport!

Lin Yu felt like he was going crazy. The way the staff and onlookers were looking at him was strange.

It was the kind of look one gives when looking at rare animals, or extraterrestrial visitors.

He even heard people whispering.

"Who is this young man? Why is he making such a big fuss?"

"I don't know. I heard he's a top advisor to the city, a god-like figure."

"Look at those three factory managers kneeling, they're more devout than if they were visiting their own father's grave..."

Lin Yu: "..."

Thank you so much!

Abdullah stood opposite Lin Yu.

The surprise on his face lasted only a second before he regained his composure.

Just as Lin Yu had predicted.

On the train back to Hanjiang, Li Datou, Wang Jianguo, and Qin Fugui, those three lively characters, had been telling Lin Yu his "glorious deeds" with embellishments all the way.

From the "Report That Shook the Sky" to the "Hanjiang Textile Alliance", and from "Securing 200 Million Yuan in Orders Without Spending a Penny" to the "Design Drawings Made by a God".

In their description, Lin Yu was no longer human.

He is the reincarnation of the God of Literature, the God of Wealth, and a deity of various professions living among humans.

Abdullah initially dismissed it as an exaggerated boast typical of Easterners.

But now, seeing this absurd yet real scene before my eyes.

Seeing the young man whose legs were being held by three strong men, whose face was full of "I have no will to live", yet he was surrounded by everyone like a star.

Then he saw a group of distinguished-looking men next to him, clearly high-ranking officials, who not only didn't stop him but were watching with great interest.

He suddenly realized that this trip to the East was starting to become interesting.

This young man is probably more than just a few products.

Abdullah glanced at everyone's reactions and amusement appeared on his face.

He took a step forward, ignoring Li Datou and the other two who were still crying on the ground.

He even bypassed Li Dakang and Liang Wenyuan, who were blocking his way, and walked straight up to Lin Yu.

A rich aroma of precious spices wafted towards me.

"Mr. Lin."

Abdullah spoke, his Chinese was not very fluent and had an exotic accent, but his pronunciation was clear and his voice was deep.

"I am Abdullah, it's a pleasure to meet you."

As he spoke, he extended his hand.

It’s over.

I've been called out.

Can't run away.

Lin Yu inwardly groaned, but forced a smile that looked worse than crying.

He struggled to raise his hand, wanting to shake hands with the other person.

But damn it, with three large "leg accessories" hanging on his legs, he couldn't bend over at all!

The scene was very embarrassing.

Li Dakang's face darkened.

Damn it, these idiots! They've made Hanjiang lose face in front of our foreign friends!

He was about to have an outburst.

Director Luo, the provincial government secretary-general standing next to him, had already taken the lead, smiling broadly as he tried to smooth things over.

"Your Highness, welcome to our Namjang Province and our Hanjiang City!"

"These comrades are so excited! So excited!"

As Director Luo spoke, he personally stepped forward and, together with several staff members, with great effort, finally managed to pull Li Datou and the other two off the ground.

Lin Yu felt like his pants were about to be torn.

Finally, he could move again.

He stretched his legs, which had gone numb from being hugged, and stiffly shook hands with Abdullah.

"Hello there."

He spoke those two words, his voice weak and listless.

Abdullah didn't care at all; he held Lin Yu's hand and kept looking at Lin Yu's face.

"Mr. Lin is a genius."

He said suddenly.

boom!

Lin Yu's mind went blank for a moment.

No! Brother, stop praising me!

If you keep praising me, the way Li Dakang looks at me won't be looking at a precious darling anymore, but at a breeding pig that will lay golden eggs!

really.

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Dakang, Liang Wenyuan, and even Li Xiangqian in the distance straightened their backs a bit, their faces full of pride and honor.

Look!

Ours!

Even foreign friends have verified it!

Ignoring the reactions of those around him, Abdullah looked at Lin Yu and continued speaking.

"Your design is... truly outstanding."

"They are not ordinary commodities; they are works of art, works of art that can change the battlefield."

The moment those words were spoken, the atmosphere around them changed instantly.

Li Datou and the others still wore expressions of "unfathomable awe" and admiration.

But the smiles on the faces of Li Dakang, Liang Wenyuan, and Governor Zhao Dagong, those old foxes, all froze instantly.

battlefield?

Change the battlefield?

What... what does this mean?

Labor protection supplies, how come they're almost on the battlefield? What happened to the plot in between?

Only Lin Yu felt a jolt in his heart.

6.

The genitals are running around excitedly, aren't they!

This Middle Eastern thug knows his stuff!

He immediately saw the true purpose of those designs!

"Your Highness flatters me." Lin Yu twitched the corner of his mouth. "I just drew some random sketches and did some random design."

"No." Abdullah shook his head, looking directly at him. "You didn't just draw randomly."

"You possess extraordinary talent in a field that others cannot see."

"but……"

"I think you're being treated unfairly here."

Lin Yu: "?"

Li Dakang, Liang Wenyuan, and Zhao Dagong: "?"

Everyone was stunned.

Wronged?

Our consultant Kobayashi, the walking GDP, the future pillar of the nation, has been wronged?

This is simply the biggest joke of the century!

Abdullah glanced at the secretaries who hadn't gotten up yet, then at the group of obsequious officials, and finally his gaze settled on Lin Yu's lifeless face.

"Your talent should not be buried in these boring meetings and these silly rituals."

"Your value should not be defined by these people in such a ridiculous way."

His voice wasn't loud, but it made everyone's heart sink.

Li Dakang's face turned completely dark.

Liang Wenyuan's smile froze on his lips.

Zhao Dagong's previously calm expression finally changed.

Damn it! What is this bastard doing here? Is he here to put pressure on me or to cause trouble?

This isn't called undermining someone's foundation; this is called blatantly destroying their home!

Lin Yu was also stunned.

Holy crap, your half-brother? You're like a mind reader, every word you say hits home!

But he held back.

Offering unsolicited favors is either a sign of malice or theft.

This rich guy is making such a big promise; there must be a trap inside.

Abdullah looked at Lin Yu with admiration in his eyes, and a kind of... sincere desire to poach his man.

He offered an astonishing condition.

"Mr. Lin."

"Leave here."

"Come to my country."

"I'm giving you an opportunity, a chance for you to truly unleash your talents without any constraints."

"I will build you the world's top laboratory."

"I'll give you an inexhaustible supply of funds."

"I'll give you a team that will completely obey your orders."

"If you just nod, I can give you anything you want."

"Money, status, power..."

"Even an army."

boom!

The entire train station platform seemed to have been muted; even the wind seemed to have forgotten how to blow.

Everyone was stunned by these words.

Li Dakang was dumbfounded.

Liang Wenyuan was stunned.

Zhao Dagong was also dumbfounded.

They've always been the ones poaching other people's partners. When did it become someone else's turn to come and dig up their ancestral graves right in front of them?!

Moreover, they dug up their precious treasure, which they valued more than their own son!

Give it to the lab? Give it funding? Give it to the team?

Even... an army?!

I... damn it!

This isn't just poaching, this is sending an aircraft carrier to raid our base, trying to wipe out our crystal!

Lin Yu stood frozen in place, completely dumbfounded.

He stared blankly at Abdullah in front of him.

Looking at the other person's face, which seemed to say, "I'm being sincere, I'm not joking."

His CPU burned out completely.

Quitting your job and starting your own business? A small goal?

My dream suddenly shrank!

Compared to this, it's like children playing house!

This isn't just a job hopping, it's career planning all in one go, fast-forwarding straight to becoming a Middle Eastern bandit leader!

Wait, what's with that jerk's eyes?

Oh no! He's obviously really interested! What should I do?! What should I do?!
