Chapter 144: Chapter 143: This is the highest-level Diamond Membership Card, with the 001 designation.
"..."
Hungry Monkey stood still with a complex expression, looking at the company across the street. Behind the glass wall, the beautiful woman at her workstation fell silent for a moment before speaking softly, "You don't mean that she is the year-end bonus, awarded to employees at the end of the year, do you?"
"That's right."
Zhang Liu smiled and said, "It seems you've never been part of the workforce. Almost all the sales-oriented companies in Fengtian City have such a year-end bonus position. The only requirements are good looks and being open-minded, and that's it."
"It can effectively motivate employees."
"This can motivate? It wouldn't cost much to find someone outside, right? Can't the employees find one for themselves?"
"It's different."
Zhang Liu shook his head and explained, "Once you really join one of these companies, you'll feel the atmosphere. It's completely different from finding someone in a club. Especially that feeling when everyone envies you and you're the one who gets her in the end."
"This feeling of having what others don't, it's completely different from the feeling of finding someone in a club."
"These sorts of workplace matters are different from you supernatural beings. You've never been part of the workforce, so you might not understand that kind of atmosphere."
"Do they restrict the year-end bonus from having boyfriends?"
"No, they don't."
"They don't?"
"Yeah, it's even more thrilling if they do."
...
"..."
Hungry Monkey stood emotionlessly below the office building, turning around to gaze at the building behind him, speechless for a long time. He had never set foot in such upscale places; before he met Miao, he made his living by moving bricks. He always thought that those who worked in office buildings were very classy.
They belonged to a higher class of people.
They looked bright and shiny, as if they were truly enjoying the city.
But today, after visiting one, he felt those people didn't seem very comfortable in their lives, earning just a few thousand a month, which was even less than what he made just by casually picking up trash in a secret realm.
It was even less than what he earned back when he was moving bricks.
And there was the matter of the position as a year-end bonus, it wasn't all that glitzy after all. He wondered when Miao would be able to come up with a year-end bonus himself.
At this moment, the shop owner standing at the entrance, greeting customers with a beaming smile, hastily put aside all his work and strode over with a proud smile upon seeing Chen Miao and his group, bending over and saying, "I was just saying how come I heard magpies chirping by the storefront early this morning, turns out it's because we have esteemed guests, come on, Miao, the VIP room is this way."
"Not bad."
Chen Miao looked up at the completely transformed Supernatural Store and said with a smile, "So you've gone from slingshots to cannons?"
"Hey."
The owner, a bit embarrassed, said, "Miao, the goods you gave me last time indeed had significant value, and I did make some money, so I thought about expanding a bit. I did some research and found that in places like Jingjiu City and Zhuhai City, there are large supermarkets exclusively selling supernatural items, full of dazzling products."
"Yet in Fengtian City, there are only some small shops, no supermarkets."
"I was thinking, why not create a Supernatural Supermarket right here in Fengtian City? I found a few friends to invest, took out some loans, and that's how we upgraded the store."
"We hired a professional manager to design a membership system for us. This is the highest level Diamond Membership Card, number 001, which I've been saving for you, Miao. Nobody else gets it if you don't come."
"With this card, you can enjoy a permanent 20% discount at all Haina's Supernatural Stores."
"20% off?"
Chen Miao raised an eyebrow as he took the Diamond Card, "That's quite a discount. How much needs to be topped up to get such a card?"
"It's not about how much you top up."
The owner shook his head seriously, "Diamond Cards are only for those who've greatly helped me. You, Miao, are my biggest benefactor. If I really make it big in the future, rest assured, Miao, I will repay your kindness a hundredfold."
"If I don't make it big, then that's my fate. I would leave Fengtian City and not bring shame to you, Miao."
"That's good."
Chen Miao smiled and tucked the Diamond Card into his inner pocket, "Let's go inside and talk. I have a batch of goods I want you to handle. I've been looking for you and am used to doing business with you. But this batch might be a bit large. I don't know if you can handle it?"
"I can."
The owner's eyes shimmered with excited light, and he nodded vigorously, "Rest assured, Miao, even if I have to pawn everything, I can handle it. No matter how big, I can take it."
I have to take it even if I can't!
With Miao's goods, as long as I take them, it's pure profit!
There's no way I could lose!
Even though I don't know what the goods are, what from Miao's hands could possibly be bad?
