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

However, after working for a long time, Ma Changshou still couldn't find any clues.

Finally, his apprentice A couldn't help but ask,

"Master, why aren't you angry even though you're clearly angry?"

Apprentices B and C nodded repeatedly.

To them, what happened to Ma Changshou was like being bullied, but instead of seeking justice, he seemed indifferent.

In response, Ma Changshou immediately found a stone to drop, then looked at his three apprentices.

"You guys are really only seeing the surface of this!"

"If there really is a problem, your advisor and the others certainly wouldn't ignore it. Since they're not helping, it's not a big deal!"

"Besides, it's normal for friends to sabotage each other. And wasn't he forced to accept his apprentice?"

"So now it depends on whether I find true love first, or he wins over his real apprentice first!"

"Let's go! Let's go!"

Soon, Song Yikan reported on Ma Changshou's transformation into a frog and his grand search for true love, which immediately attracted a large number of female disciples of the Tianxing Sect.

Even disciples from other sects were tempted after learning about this.

Unfortunately, by the end of the year, Ma Changshou had many more women around him, and his frog-like mouth was almost kissed raw, but there was no way to stop it.

At the end of the year, Ma Changshou flew to Lu Changfeng's place and began to complain.

"Lu Changfeng, what exactly are your requirements for true love, quack!"

"Why haven't I found true love after kissing so many people? This doesn't make sense!"

Lu Changfeng's lips curled up wildly at his complaints, but he still shrugged.

"If it's true love, then at least you have to genuinely like him!"

"Or do you enjoy the feeling of being kissed?"

Ma Changshou's frog-like face immediately turned red, and he then retorted,

"How could that be? Forget it, I'm not talking to you anymore!"

"I can't do anything with you, but that doesn't mean my apprentice can't either. Just wait and see! Quack!"

After saying that, he skipped away from his office.

Unfortunately, such threats had absolutely no effect on Lu Changfeng.

"Alright, Frog Prince!"

"I'm waiting!"

Upon hearing this title, Ma Changshou, who was skipping away outside the door, was caught off guard and bumped into a pillar with a 'thud'.

However, upon closer inspection, the entire frog turned quite red!

Shou was furious, he was so angry!

He had just left when Lu Changfeng received a message from Feng Ninglu.

"Sister Lu, is there something you need?"

As soon as he entered her office, Lu Changfeng plopped down on the sofa and casually asked, but his hand quickly reached for a small snack from Feng Ninglu's office.

Since she started going out for fresh air with Lu Changfeng once a month, her office has started to have some snacks.

Unfortunately, most of these things ended up in Lu Changfeng's mouth.

Seeing Lu Changfeng happily eating, Feng Ninglu was quite speechless, but now was not the time to dwell on that.

He immediately coughed twice, then spoke in a gentle tone,

"Changfeng, have you encountered any work-related problems that you need me to solve lately?"

"Is there anything in our shopping mall that needs improvement?"

Seeing her pathetic state, Lu Changfeng curled his lip in displeasure.

"Get to the point if you have something to say, otherwise I'm leaving!"

He pretended to leave, but was immediately stopped by Feng Ninglu.

"Ahem, since that's the case, I'll just say it directly!"

"Lu Changfeng, I'm planning to break through to the Golden Core stage soon, and I'd like you to manage the Luoyun Shopping Mall in my place until I return!!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Changfeng also became serious.

"I can accept that, but shouldn't you let your own family handle this? Why are you leaving it to me?"

She breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Lu Changfeng agree, but couldn't help but smile wryly when she heard the question that followed.

"Although I am a direct descendant of the Feng family, according to your logic, how could a remnant of the old era like me possibly compare to the prodigies of the new era!"

"Now that the clan has three top-grade spiritual roots, if I were to give up this position to the clan, even if I reached the Golden Core stage, could I take it back?"

After listening, Lu Changfeng exclaimed, "Wow!"

That's a really simple and straightforward reason!

However, it makes sense when you think about it. For the Feng family, although they can theoretically cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage with top-grade spiritual roots, the Treasure Basin they control doesn't specify a particular upper limit.

In other words, as long as one accumulates enough wealth, this thing can even help a Nascent Soul cultivator break through to the Divine Transformation stage, and if one is bold enough, it can even help a Divine Transformation cultivator break through to the Void Refinement stage.

Even if I can't help, I can still use my wealth to acquire some treasures.

In this situation, accumulating more wealth can only bring benefits and no harm.

"Okay, then can I get an extra 40,000 yuan in salary?"

Upon hearing Lu Changfeng's increasingly audacious request, Feng Ninglu's lips twitched involuntarily.

Good grief, you already have 60,000 spirit stones a month, and you want to increase it by 40,000? Why don't you just say you want the shop?

"At most 20,000!"

"make a deal!"

Damn! That's too high!

Although they didn't actually want spirit stones, the feeling was still terrible.

"Alright, remember, no matter who comes, you can't hand it over!"

Lu Changfeng didn't care about this at all. Although he did receive a share of the profits, theoretically, a higher salary meant a lower share, but don't forget that he only received 20% of the profits.

In other words, 80% of this wage increase was originally someone else's profit!

The next morning, Feng Ninglu announced the matter to all the management and posted the relevant announcement on the bulletin board.

After finishing all this, I turned and left, but of course, I didn't forget to tell him to work hard before I left.

Unfortunately, this explanation basically went in one ear and out the other for Lu Changfeng.

However, the necessary warnings should still be issued!

"Alright, everyone, quiet down!"

After everyone quieted down, he continued.

"As everyone knows, I'm not one to get involved in anything. Recently, I was even tricked by the Frog Prince and now I have to mentor an apprentice! So I'm incredibly busy!"

Everyone burst into laughter.

There's no way around it; the biggest source of amusement in Tianxing City lately, besides the spirit-testing festival, is Ma Changshou turning into a frog.

Therefore, they were aware that Lu Changfeng was going to take on disciples.

His face immediately turned serious, and those around him noticed this and stopped smiling.

"But I like to slack off, and I don't like people causing me trouble!"

"I know some people will definitely think, 'If I were to do something secretly, how could you possibly find out!'"

"Hehehe, have you guys noticed something? Even though I don't manage things anymore, why haven't any problems arisen all these years?

After saying that, Lu Changfeng just smiled at everyone and didn't continue.

But those around them couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

They were quite happy when they learned that Lu Changfeng was acting as the store manager. After all, with someone who didn't care about anything, they thought they could be a little more unrestrained at work.

But now they're only just realizing it.

Yes, Lu Changfeng only worked at the counter for the first two years, and then he remained a store manager or assistant store manager for a full 12 years.

If things are okay in the short term, but it would be terrifying if no major problems occurred for 12 years.

Either his subordinates are all dedicated to their duties, or he can resolve problems in advance!

If they had to choose between the two, they would still prefer not to be dealt with as a problem by Lu Changfeng.
