In truth, these words were ones Cheng Shuili had heard when she was looking for a job in her past life; using them on Chen Qingshan now felt completely natural.
To make the effect a little better, Cheng Shuili added: "As for Glory, you don't need to worry. He meets our standards here."
Chen Qingshan's message popped up almost immediately.
【Qingshan Trek】: What? Where do I fall short?!
Cheng Shuili's reply was ruthless: "There is no need for us to waste time on this issue."
Chen Qingshan fell silent. The veins on his forehead pulsed; he was already starting to regret contacting Angry Crow. This was his own fault—he had long known how nasty the personality of the number one player was, yet he had gone out of his way to recommend himself!
But...
How could Glory be acceptable?
The message had already been sent, and Angry Crow had already replied. The arrow had left the bow, and even if it was just for Glory's sake, he had no other choice now.
However... Angry Crow was the number one player. The treatment on her side should be better than the organization's, right?
Hope reignited in Chen Qingshan's eyes. He thought for a moment, and to leave a good impression on Angry Crow, he didn't even ask any questions, simply saying: "I can accept that!"
Cheng Shuili was overjoyed. She could roughly understand the mindset of a job seeker like Chen Qingshan—after all, she had experienced it in her past life—but this was the first time she had stood from the perspective of an interviewer.
It felt quite novel.
Cheng Shuili was very satisfied. She didn't waste any more time chatting with this easily fooled young man, instead focusing her energy on dealing with someone as difficult as Zhu Xuan.
【Zhu Xuan】: Game coins are no problem, but as for the information... this stuff belongs to our top-secret intelligence, and I cannot make that call.
Cheng Shuili stared at the "no problem" in the previous sentence and fell into deep thought.
She had doubled the price directly, and this guy hadn't even tried to haggle.
Did she ask for too little again?
Unfortunately, it wasn't easy to raise the price now.
Since that was the case, she had to get her hands on the monster information they had compiled.
Her stance was extremely firm. Regardless, with the bakery, she didn't really care about the compensation of two thousand game coins a month.
What she cared about more was the information compiled by the organization.
They had many people, so they must have seen many things. The information known by one person didn't amount to much, but when integrated together, it was quite substantial.
Especially when it came to monsters; Cheng Shuili had the insight of the Abyss Ring, but the few people around her did not.
With this, the survival rate could be improved by more than half. Cheng Shuili gave a light click of her tongue and typed out a line of text with a frown.
【Angry Crow Takes Flight】: It's precisely your top-secret information I want; otherwise, there's no deal.
Zhu Xuan leaned back against his chair, closed his eyes, and opened them again. The other party was simply a rogue.
Zhu Xuan stared at the message for a while, at a loss for what to reply. Agree to her? If he agreed, how would he explain it to the old fossils in the organization? Don't agree? Judging by her tone, the deal would fall through if he didn't.
Moreover, Cheng Ershui was the number one player!
Number one!
Zhu Xuan didn't think he could produce anything that would catch her eye, so after thinking about it, the data compiled within their organization was indeed the most useful.
Even if it was useless to a top player like Cheng Ershui, it would still come in handy if she were to build some faction in the future.
Zhu Xuan was silent for a moment, unable to stop a sense of admiration from rising—Cheng Ershui was truly shrewd.
Everything today was for the sake of Chen Qingshan.
Everyone knew Chen Qingshan didn't like Zhu Xuan, but in reality, Zhu Xuan didn't particularly like Chen Qingshan either. If not for his relationship with his teacher, Zhu Xuan would never have bothered with him.
Zhu Xuan closed his eyes to ponder for a while, then suddenly pulled at the corner of his mouth with a smile. With his teacher's life or death unknown and unreachable, he had to find a way for the only child of his family to survive.
Consider it repaying the debt of gratitude he owed his teacher.
【Zhu Xuan】: Fine, but you must give me some time.
Wasn't time a cost?
Cheng Shuili flatly refused.
【Angry Crow Takes Flight】: Dragging it out is pointless. Within today, or else... there's no deal.
Zhu Xuan was truly silent, not even replying to this message from Angry Crow.
Cheng Shuili wasn't in a hurry. If Zhu Xuan agreed, it was her gain; if he didn't, she didn't lose anything. To her, it really didn't make a difference—it was just icing on the cake.
That matter was settled.
Cheng Shuili glanced at the regional channel. Before she could see any information, she received a message from Xinxue.
【Xinxue Chu Ji】: Boss... my cover is completely blown. How do all these people know that you are behind me? Even that Brother Invincible—he only said two words before asking if I was sent by Angry Crow.
Cheng Shuili smiled and shook her head; this was quite normal.
Whether it was the previous Partition 1000 or the current Partition 666, besides Angry Crow, who else had the strength to be the person behind Xinxue?
【Angry Crow Takes Flight】: What did you say?
【Xinxue Chu Ji】: I haven't replied yet.
That was good.
Cheng Shuili sighed and said, "Then don't reply. He isn't a good person either; have less contact with him. I'll get Liang Shanbo to go and ask later."
【Xinxue Chu Ji】: ??? What, get who to go? Boss, you didn't say that wrong, did you?
Why be so surprised?
Cheng Shuili had just frowned, but her expression relaxed again.
One couldn't blame Xinxue for this reaction; Liang Shanbo was indeed... er, how should she put it?
No matter how she described it, it wouldn't be very polite.
Cheng Shuili shook her head, tossed the impolite thoughts away, sent a casual reply, and went to find Liang Shanbo.
Liang Shanbo had heard of Brother Invincible, and upon hearing Cheng Shuili's words, she immediately realized the importance of the matter.
She patted her chest: "Don't worry, Boss! I will definitely get it done!"
Cheng Shuili nodded. She was at ease; Liang Shanbo occasionally gave her unexpected surprises, and she reckoned this time would be no exception.
That matter was arranged.
Cheng Shuili stood up, and just as she stretched, she received another message.
001 processed all notifications now; it wouldn't alert her unless it was necessary.
But Cheng Shuili was still puzzled. Did she really have to be this busy now? Why was one message coming after another?
There was a little, just a little, feeling of an emperor dealing with official memorials.
But what was 001, that chief eunuch, for! If Cheng Shuili had to deal with everything herself, what was the point of having it?
Cheng Shuili wasn't an unreasonable leader. She opened the message to take a look first and found that this really wasn't 001's fault; this matter truly required her to handle it herself.
【Cloud's Nemesis】: Big shot, do you still need plant seedlings?
The message below was 001 replying on her behalf.
【Angry Crow Takes Flight】: May I ask what kind of plant seedlings they are?
Cheng Shuili: "..."
The phrasing of this message was clearly not from her.
Wasn't this too polite?
【Cloud's Nemesis】: It depends on which kind you need, big shot. We have... it is no exaggeration to say that our seedlings here could fill an entire garden.
