Ghosts go the same way

"Are you full?" Before Xiao Jiu entered the pavilion, the old man squinted the chess piece in his hand and asked cheerfully.

"I am full."

"Is it the kind of fullness that can't be squeezed in at all?"

Xiao Jiu was surprised, quite surprised what the old man meant by this, but he answered honestly: "It's not the kind that can't be squeezed in at all." Yesterday I tossed until midnight, and today I also did a very beneficial aerobic exercise. He got up late, and at Xiao Jiu's current age, that box of chicken drumstick rice only made him [-]% full.

"That's enough." Just as the old man finished speaking, a man in black next to him put an insulated box on the stone table, and took out... a bowl of rice, a bowl of red bean rice, "Eat it. "

"..." Xiao Jiu looked at the bowl of rice, and then at the old man, with a look of confusion, "Master, what is this?"

"What? I got it wrong, isn't this the first time for you?" Although the old man thought that Xiao Jiu was obsessed with having sex with ghosts and couldn't extricate himself from it, but in the conversation with Xiao Jiu yesterday, he also understood that he was If you don't have much experience, it is very likely that yesterday was the first time.

No matter how thick-skinned Xiao Jiu was, when the old man asked such a question, he also blushed, so he could only let out a muffled "hmm".

"That's right, let's eat." The old man said with a serious face, but Xiao Jiu didn't know why, but he could feel the old man's incomparably obscene laughter in his ears, "By the way, there are red envelopes, just in time for the apprentice ceremony. It counts as one piece, so I will give you this in advance." After speaking, the old man put a bank card on the stone table and pushed it in front of Xiao Jiu.

"Master, I can't ask for it, and... the apprenticeship ceremony should be given to the master, right?" No matter how ignorant Xiao Jiu is about the affairs in the circle, he still knows this general rule by watching TV and reading books.

"If it was a few decades ago, yes, the apprenticeship ceremony was given to the master. If it was hundreds of years ago, it would be even more true. Not only the apprenticeship ceremony, but also the apprenticeship deed, which is no different from the deed of sale. If he is beaten or scolded to death, it can only be regarded as the apprentice's misbehavior that made the master unhappy. Now, I have a contract for you to sign, and you will understand after reading it."

Another man in black came over and handed Xiao Jiu a brown paper bag. Xiao Jiu opened it, and inside was a thick stack of documents.

At the top center of the first page of the document is a company's logo, with three willow trees drawn in a circle, and below the logo is the company name: Sanliu Group.

Xiao Jiu frowned. It turned out that their sect is still a registered company.After this is the specific content of the contract. Xiao Jiu spent half an hour going through it from the beginning to the end. It turned out that this is an employment contract. After signing this Xiao Jiu is a special administrative assistant under the Tianda Entertainment Company under the Sanliu Group. The first year The basic salary is 30 a month, bonuses are calculated separately, and the salary is increased by at least [-]% every year.Five social insurances and one housing fund, two days off per week, and rest on statutory holidays. If you work, you will be paid four times your salary, and you will be picked up by a special car. There is also [-] days of annual leave every year.Of course, there are countless other perks.

"This is actually your salary card." Seeing Xiao Jiu finish reading, the old man pushed the bank card over again.

"Master, this, what's going on?" Isn't he an apprentice, why is it the same as looking for a job?

"You're pretty smart, why don't you understand?" The old man took a sip of tea, with a look of hatred on his face, "Isn't it obvious that you will do this in the future, and you are my apprentice again, can you Let you go out to solicit customers by yourself as a retail investor? Of course, you have been working for our sect for a lifetime. In the future, no matter whether it is odd jobs or major events, the rewards you get will be counted in the sect, so don’t even think about taking advantage of yourself for the rest of your life.”

When the old man said that, Xiao Jiu smiled: "Master, do you have a pen?"

"Tomorrow morning, get up at six o'clock and go back!"

When Xiao Jiu finished signing and turned to leave, the old man yelled behind him.

Xiao Jiu accepted the bank card, and also had a triplicate contract in his hand.Signing this contract will only benefit him and not cause any harm to him. As for what he will lose his freedom to work for others in the future, or as the old man said, all the wages he earns through hard work must be handed over to the company, what Xiao Jiu thinks is not is another aspect.

In this circle in the future, he can use all the resources in the sect, and he doesn't need to worry about logistics support at all. He only needs to learn what he needs to learn, and when he needs it, he can go there by car, boat or plane. It is enough for the place where it happened to do its part.

For Xiao Jiu, who actually doesn't have much need for money and material comforts, these are what he can only wish for.

Back in the room, Xiao Jiu wanted to call out on Tuesday to tell him about the "signing contract" just now, and take a piece of takeaway to play with your sister, but he called several times, but there was no response, until he thought something was wrong. When he was about to turn around to find the old man by accident, he came out of the jade pendant on Tuesday.Rest assured, Xiao Jiu looked at Tuesday's expression and found that it turned out to be a long-lost feeling of "confusion".

"Tuesday, what's the matter with you?"

"I... fell asleep." Looking at Xiao Jiu on Tuesday, it was obvious that he himself couldn't believe it when he answered, thinking that ghosts don't sleep!

People sleep to relieve physical and mental fatigue, which is a natural physiological demand.But as a ghost that no longer has a physical body, at least Xiao Jiu and he realized that he had never seen Tuesday sleep.Usually when Xiao Jiu was sleeping, Tuesday would enter his shadow.

"Can you sleep now?"

"Yes." Tuesday laughed, "After I entered the jade pendant, I felt a warm and drowsy feeling that I hadn't seen for a long time, and then I fell asleep without knowing it." Apparently being able to sleep also made him feel very happy. Comfortable.

Xiao Jiu was happy at first, but couldn't help worrying: "You wake up now, don't you feel any discomfort?"

"No." Tuesday shook his head, then felt it carefully in silence, and suddenly looked down at his hands, "On the contrary, I feel..."

"what?"

"It seems to be a little more solid, but it's only a little bit, and it may be my illusion."

"Concrete?"

"It's just... more real." Tuesday looked a bit distressed, obviously he didn't know how to explain his feelings to Xiao Jiu, who was a human being.

"It's a good thing, not a bad thing." Xiao Jiu didn't continue to press, "Yes, I signed the contract!" The sudden incident just now made him almost forget the original intention of calling Tuesday.As he spoke, he handed over the contract.

Tue picked it up and looked at it carefully. After reading it, he asked Xiao Jiu seriously: "Does your company want ghosts? Such good benefits, even ghosts are tempted."

Xiao Jiu deliberately "quacked" with a smile: "Okay, I'll ask Master when I come back, and he really has to give you a contract. How can you think of signing a contract, but the two of us are the ones doing the work." After finishing speaking, Xiao Jiu was startled suddenly, "Tuesday, you said...not just you, how about I ask Master to sign Wen Yuan?"

"Xiao Jiu, we are ghosts..."

"But you are staying in the world now, so of course you can find jobs and earn wages. I just don't know if Wen Yuan is willing to do it." Halfway through Xiao Jiu's speech, he suddenly felt a chill behind his back, and turned his head just in time to see the indentation. Wen Yuan, who had been inside the jade bone for an unknown amount of time, popped out.

"If you find a job, I'll do it." He glared at Xiao Jiu, but his eyes were not angry, but...enthusiastic?

Xiao Jiu felt that his behavior probably had something to do with seeing Xiao Qiang again, but Xiao Jiu would not ask about the relationship, after all, it was a private matter between Wen Yuan and Xiao Qiang.

"So... shall I ask now?" Originally, he wanted to wait until tomorrow morning to ask the old man about this matter, but judging from Wen Yuan's expression, it seemed that it would be better for him to make another trip now.Sure enough, when Xiao Jiu just asked, Wen Yuan's eyes immediately became brighter.

"Pfft!" Seeing Xiao Jiu go and come back, the old man who was sipping tea cheerfully spit out a mouthful of tea immediately after hearing the question he asked.

Not only the old man, but the men in black standing beside him also looked dull, looking at Xiao Jiu as if they were looking at an alien.

"Sign a labor contract with a ghost?"

"If they can work, they should be able to sign a contract, right? And they don't need five insurances and one housing fund. Wen Yuan said that he only needs salary, and he can burn a few clothes according to holidays, which can be used as welfare." As a ghost Of course, pension, medical care, unemployment, work injury and maternity insurance are unnecessary. As for the housing provident fund, the ghost said that if they want to live, they can find any house to live in, even if there are already people living there. It doesn't matter.

"This is..." The old man probably wanted to refute, but he quickly thought of something and stopped, "Actually...it's not uncommon for ghosts to work for living people. It's like slavery to ghosts, but this kind of complete control over a person The method of ghosts has been lost for a long time. But it is also very common to use magic tools or special methods to drive some little ghosts. However, it is considered compulsory. Like this, I pay wages, and you work... The salary is enough? Does that old friend of yours know more friends?"

"Master Patriarch!" As soon as the old man's voice was heard, a man in black behind him couldn't help but speak out.

Only then did Xiao Jiu realize that the old man is indeed of high seniority.

"What's all the fuss about? Multiple friends have multiple paths. Besides, we are legitimately spending money to hire ghosts. Both sides have two-way choices. Ghosts are also people. Isn't it the only way to put a spell on them so that they can't resist? Is it right to be a white worker?! What about your conscience?" The old man also forgot who poured the tea just now, and now he is swearing loudly.

It seems that others can't control it. The old man's team is determined to hire ghosts in the future.

Thinking about it this way, Xiao Jiu couldn't help being a little distracted. The place where people look for jobs is called the talent exchange market, so will there be such a talent exchange market in the future?Xiao Jiu couldn't help laughing when he thought that there would be a place in the future full of ghosts wandering around looking for jobs—it would be even more interesting if someone looking for a job went to the wrong place.
