The Leisurely Life of a Young Man in the World of Cultivation

"You bastard, don't you want to read what you're saying?"

Lu Yuange was so angry that his nose almost twisted out of shape.

Listen to what he heard! He covered himself with these indelible marks, and most importantly, he had a turtle and a tortoise on each shoulder. And this is considered a good thing?

In response, Lu Changfeng immediately explained,

"Old Deng, it's normal that you can't understand this; after all, it's a new thing!"

"But you should see the results first!"

The next moment, Lu Changfeng waved his hand, and dozens of various spells appeared in front of him.

Most importantly, the feeling conveyed by each of these spells is comparable to a full-force attack from a third-level Foundation Establishment cultivator. Even if I don't die, I will be seriously injured.

Lu Yuange was immediately frightened upon seeing this scene.

"Wait, you brat, I believe you, I believe you!"

Regardless of whether you believe it or not, the power of this spell is no joke. How can a mere Foundation Establishment Level 2 novice not withstand so many attacks?

But Lu Changfeng didn't care about that, and immediately pointed...

"go!"

Boom boom boom boom!

Almost instantly, these spells struck Lu Yuange like meteors, followed by a massive explosion.

Unfortunately, Lu Changfeng contained the explosion with a shield made of spiritual energy.

Before long, Lu Yuange was completely blackened, and he opened his mouth and exhaled a thick cloud of smoke.

But he soon discovered the problem: although he looked terrible, it was just an external change, and he hadn't actually suffered any serious injuries inside.

He believed Lu Changfeng's good news almost instantly, but he still had to scold him.

"You brat, are you trying to kill me?"

"You're patricide! Patricide!"

Looking at Old Deng, who was jumping up and down in anger inside the enclosure, Lu Changfeng's lips curled up slightly.

He would never admit that he deliberately targeted him under the guise of testing.

Just kidding, I was originally just messing around with his scribbles to trick him, but I never expected that something like battle runes would appear.

Then the only option left is to scam people again, and it seems to be working well so far.

After quickly using magic to cleanse himself, Old Deng sat down on the sofa and let out a cold snort.

"Alright, now you can tell me what exactly happened!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Changfeng then explained the matter of the battle patterns.

Lu Yuange was completely dumbfounded after hearing this.

"What? The battle markings you're talking about are these two turtles on my left and right shoulders?"

Lu Changfeng immediately corrected him.

"Wrong, the one on the left shoulder is a turtle, and the one on the right is a soft-shelled turtle. Don't get them mixed up!"

Lu Yuange was furious.

"What's the difference between these two? Aren't they both turtles?"

Lu Changfeng then briefly explained the knowledge he had gained, and Lao Deng listened thoughtfully.

"I see, so there really is a difference!"

"But according to you, my lifespan at the Foundation Establishment stage is now 40% longer than a normal Foundation Establishment stage?"

As Lu Yuange spoke, he was filled with excitement. "A Foundation Establishment cultivator's lifespan is 200 years longer, which means he can live to be 280 years old."

"No, the lifespan-increasing effect is from the longevity tortoise technique I've mastered. The tortoise on your shoulder will probably only add four or five years to your life!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuange instantly appeared beside Lu Changfeng.

"Hehehe, Xiao Feng, look at that longevity turtle and that shelled turtle tattoo, didn't you say I could get those tattooed?"

Lu Yuange had thought it through clearly. Even his first-generation battle pattern could greatly enhance his defense. He couldn't even imagine how tough he would be if he had that tortoise shell pattern on him.

Hehehehe!

Seeing that Old Deng had already entered a state of delusion, Lu Changfeng couldn't help but twitch his lips.

Judging from his delusional look, he's definitely not thinking of anything good!

"That's possible, but I don't have any specially made tattoo ink right now. It needs to be specially prepared, and that takes some time!"

Seeing that it was just a minor problem, Lu Yuange didn't care at all. He joked that he still had 150 years left to live, so he had plenty of time.

Then they kicked him out to work. Before leaving, Lu Changfeng didn't forget to give him the middle finger.

Gan!

When you need help, he's all smooth sailing; once you've used him, he's all brat!

Face!

Inside Lu Changfeng's office, Li Mingfei asked with a grin,

"Brother Lu, Brother Lu, when is this year's company annual party?"

After Li Mingfei mentioned it, Lu Changfeng finally remembered that it was already the end of December and the annual meeting was just around the corner.

As an inn separate from the shopping mall, their annual meeting is naturally held separately.

Following past practice, the shopping mall opens in the morning, and they open in the afternoon.

However, he wasn't going to waste his brainpower on that; he simply got up and found Su Qingzhu.

"Second Manager, how will our inn's annual party be held this year? Have the year-end bonuses been finalized?"

Hearing him say that, Su Qingzhu couldn't help but roll her eyes.

"Of course, I've already decided. Just take a look!"

He tossed a report over, and Lu Changfeng was shocked when he picked it up and read it.

"Holy crap, two thousand spirit stones per person, that's four thousand for us?"

"Hmm, isn't this a bit too little?"

"How about we promote the employees? Look how well everyone's been doing these past two years!"

Su Qingzhu rolled her eyes at this.

"Don't you know what you're saying? Two thousand per person is too little, and they haven't even reached the required years of service for promotion!"

"Unless there are significant achievements, evaluations are conducted every five years!"

"You're not trying to upgrade your employee rank, are you? You're making 40,000 spirit stones a month!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Changfeng felt he had gone a bit too far.

After all, while ordinary employees were earning only a couple hundred yuan a month, he was making forty thousand. And yet he still wanted to promote his employees?

But he quickly realized why he should be making up for the capitalists' shortcomings.

If I do a good job, of course I deserve a raise!

Damn it, that wicked Su Qingzhu changed my mind with just a few words! What a despicable woman!

"Impossible, absolutely impossible! I did a good job, it's only right that I get a raise!"

"However, such a large increase is indeed inappropriate. How about promoting one of the employees below me and raising my salary to 50,000?"

"That's a 25% increase, how about that? You won't refuse, will you?"

Hearing this, Su Qingzhu was completely dumbfounded. No, it was clearly you who begged for a raise, yet you said it as if you should thank him!

He immediately rolled his eyes.

"Get lost, you slacker! If you dare say another word, I'll dump all my work on you!"

hiss!

I left all the work to myself.

They actually want me to do the work? Impossible, absolutely impossible.

There's no way I can work, not in my entire life. The only way I can survive is by slacking off and being a pay thief.

So he quickly slipped away.

He finally breathed a sigh of relief when he got back to his office.

"Phew, I almost ended up working all the time!"

"Fine, if they don't want a raise, they don't want a raise. I still have a long way to go!"

Time flew by while he was slacking off. In the afternoon, Lao Deng brought a message saying that Elder Liu wanted them to expand their operations and wanted him to come over for a chat!

Seeing this, he decisively gave up slacking off and went to the bus station instead.
