What’s the point of cultivating immortality if you don’t have money?.

Chapter 459 General Fu (Thanks to 'MacArthur' for the generous donation)
After careful consideration, Zhang Yu decided to start a small company.

He exclaimed, "This is not only for myself, but also to shoulder more responsibility for Kunxu."

"It will make it easier for me to take care of my fellow villagers in the future, give more poor people a chance to make money, and then lead everyone to get rich together..."

With a soft chuckle, Fuki looked at Zhang Yu, who had stopped, and said, barely suppressing her laughter, "I think what you said is very good. I completely understand what you said. In the future, we don't need to say these kinds of things when it's just the two of us. You can say them more often when you're in meetings with your employees."

Zhang Yu shook his head, thinking to himself, how could such a pure Kunxu evil god understand his magnanimity?

Next, Zhang Yu thought about it. He didn't have much experience in starting a company, so he consulted Director Gao.

Director Gao: Hmm, you could definitely start a small company.
Director Gao: Okay, I'll have Tulishan help you with the process.

Soon after, Tu Lishan contacted Zhang Yu, and with his help, Zhang Yu successfully established the company the next day.

Then Tu Lishan sent him a beginner's guide to starting a company and shared some of his experience with him.

For example, how to lower wages, how to recruit interns, how to get students to do work for free, how to secure projects from schools...

When Tu Lishan asked Zhang Yu if he needed any resources on finance and accounting, Zhang Yu said, "I heard from Ying Xin that she has studied this subject, so I plan to let her try it out first."

Tu Lishan: "You really take care of your classmate. Yingxin has wanted to get away from the simple work on construction sites for a while, and now she's seized this opportunity with you."

Zhang Yu sighed inwardly: "Actually, it's mainly because... Yingxin is cheap enough."

After all, Yingxin was a novice in this field, and if it weren't for the opportunity given by Zhang Yu, they would have basically been unable to find a related job.

Zhang Yu also felt that the size of his current company did not require people with strong abilities in this area, and Yingxin should be sufficient.

not to mention……

“Fuji, once the company is up and running, Yingxin will be our accounting supervisor, and you will be the financial director, specifically responsible for managing and supervising Yingxin.”

Upon hearing Zhang Yu's words, Fu Ji exclaimed in surprise, "Ah? I have to do chores too?"

"What do you mean, 'huh'?" Zhang Yu said, "How many years have you been eating and drinking here for free, just lounging around all day? I've been working my way up from the first year of high school to the third year of university, and I've even made it into the top ten high schools from Songyang High School. What about you?"

"He only reached level 2 evil god, and I had to help him."

Fuki said somewhat hesitantly, "Won't it be inconvenient for me to do the work?"

Zhang Yu said, "It's a new company, and we don't need an office, so everything will be kept simple... We'll definitely be working remotely."

"Why don't you just use my Dharma Body to contact Ying Xin, communicate with her in my name, and manage and supervise her work?"

Zhang Yu spoke eloquently: "You've boasted so much about your fraudulent schemes in Kunxu, you must be very familiar with finance, accounting, law, and taxation, right?"

Fukuhime said, "Then the salary..."

Zhang Yu: "You don't eat or drink, and you've been living here for so long without me charging you rent. And you're asking me for wages?"

"And what's the company's situation right now? Everything is in a state of flux, it's the most difficult startup phase, and you still have the nerve to ask for a salary?"

"Besides... if I can't make a lot of money, I won't be able to join a sect. I'll take you with me and do everything I can to help me join a sect. That's what you should be doing right now."

"You're one of the company's original shareholders, after all. What shareholder wouldn't contribute? Right, Mr. Fu?"

Fuki rolled her eyes inwardly and said, "Fine, fine, I'll do it."

Upon hearing Fu Ji's agreement, Zhang Yu recalled the process of recruiting Ying Xin and employing Fu Ji, and secretly thought that he seemed to be gradually starting to have a boss's mindset.

"I always felt that my thoughts changed after starting the company."

"Sigh, has it been because I've taken on more responsibility that I've become more mature?"

On the other side, Fuki thought to herself, "That Zhang Yu... I just taught him how to run a company and exploit his employees yesterday, and the very next day he's trying to exploit me?"

"He can use language and mental pressure so easily. This kid... it seems he has really learned a lot of what I taught him before."

"Alright."

Fu Ji thought to herself, "If I can't start a company in Kunxu, how can I become stronger?"

"Enhance your capabilities, use your own strength to tackle key parts, hire people to do odd jobs, and free up more of your energy to do critical work."

"Then we'll continue to expand the company, make more money, enhance our strength, hire more subordinates to improve production efficiency, and incidentally solve problems related to sales, finance, taxation, legal matters, human resources, and so on, to extract even more profits..."

"Hehe, become stronger, Zhang Yu."

"The stronger you become, the greater the long-term return on my investment in you will be."

In the following days, besides studying and cultivating, Zhang Yu also began to take on projects on behalf of the company, and the days passed by one by one.

……

On a simulated battlefield.

Su Yanyang and Shi Huaiyu worked together to create a cloud of mud and sand that swept towards the colonel's students not far away.

Zhang Yu was not present at this competition.

Su Yanyang and the other team members had no objections to this.

After all, they all understood that it was because opponents at the colonel level were no longer worth Zhang Yu's time. Zhang Yu needed to seize the time to cultivate the Heavenly Kunlun Mountain-Moving Divine Power to improve his chances of winning in the upcoming competition.

Although he had conflicts with Zhang Yu in the past, Su Yanyang now hoped that Zhang Yu could greatly enhance the power of the Heavenly Kunlun Mountain-Moving Divine Force and lead them to victory in the upcoming matches.

"If we can hold out until Mo Shangjin returns, it's not impossible for us to compete for first place."

Thinking of this, Su Yanyang couldn't help but look forward to Zhang Yu's progress.

In the final moments of the match, as the rolling mudslide subsided and the dust settled, the duel came to a complete end. On the way out of the arena, Mo Shangjin's projection appeared and said, "You all cooperated well; the training paid off."

Shi Huaiyu asked, "Has the next opponent been announced?"

Mo Shangjin exclaimed, "We're out."

"King Kong University".

Xiao Yunji asked in surprise, "They were eliminated?"

Mo Shangjin nodded: "They were eliminated by Tianjian University and have entered the loser's bracket. They'll be facing us in the next match."

Xiao Yunji asked with concern, "What's Zhang Yu's condition now?"

Mo Shangjin shook his head: "I'm not quite sure either."

Upon hearing this, everyone became worried. If Zhang Yu's Heavenly Kunlun Mountain-Moving Divine Power did not reach a certain level before the next match, they would likely suffer two more defeats at the hands of King Kong University and be eliminated from this year's Civil Engineering Inter-University League early on.

Stepping out of the arena, Su Yanyang frowned upon hearing the commotion outside: "What's going on?"

Xiao Yunji casually said, "It seems that the university here gave us a day off this month, and the students are protesting, suspecting that there are believers in the two-day weekend cult among the school leaders."

Su Yanyang curled his lip upon hearing this: "You've already reached the level of a colonel, and you still want a holiday? You're really getting more and more backward. Why not learn from the ancients to give holidays? If I were you, I would also protest."

A moment later, looking at the students protesting in the street, Su Yanyang couldn't help but think, "There aren't even many Foundation Establishment cultivators."

"What's the point of these colonels studying and cultivating so hard? In the end, they'll just climb a few more steps on the path to immortality. I don't think it makes any difference whether they die sooner or later."

"Thinking about it this way, a day off isn't that much of a difference for them."

……

A construction site in a canyon area.

As Zhang Yu's palm print changed, he unleashed the Star Locking Prison move from the Ten Phases of Star Suppression.

As the earth's gravitational pull swept across, transparent force fields appeared in the canyon before them, locking the supporting structures of the bridges. Then, the magical artifacts controlled by the soul cultivators began to weld and reinforce them.

The construction site in front of them was the first major project Zhang Yu had taken on after starting his company, with a construction cost of approximately 60 spirit coins.

Every time Zhang Yu thought about the income he would receive, he couldn't help but feel excited, marveling that civil engineering was indeed a great major.

So these days he has been busy at the construction site, and this process is not only work, but also a kind of spiritual practice.

Each time the Heavenly Kunlun Mountain-Moving Divine Power was used, it also triggered the use of the Kunyuan Technique, causing this martial art to improve rapidly. In the blink of an eye, the Kunyuan Technique had reached level 17.

In addition, Zhang Yu's application of the Ten Phases of Zhenxing became increasingly proficient. After all, these were just the techniques and experiences of using the Kunlun Mountain-Moving Divine Power. With the support of his high-level Seven Absolutes of Earth and Wood, his understanding and learning speed was naturally very fast.

However, while its strength has improved rapidly, its savings have not increased much.

This is because Zhang Yu no longer receives projects through Director Gao's company, and no one pays his salary directly anymore.

According to the normal process of the project, his company has only received a small advance payment so far. He still needs to pay the wages of his employees and will only have income after the project payments are settled one by one.

"We can only hold on for now."

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Fortunately, I have almost 70 spirit coins in savings now, so I can manage this without too much of a problem."

"Once the first batch of project payments are settled, my income will increase rapidly."

"After all, starting a company and taking on projects earns me much more than I did when I was working for someone else."

Just then, Zhang Yu suddenly received a message.

Magnet Pole True Lord: After you mastered the Heavenly Kunlun Mountain-Moving Divine Power, why haven't you contacted me even once?

Zhang Yu: True Lord, you are so busy with your affairs. I think I'll leave this small matter alone.

Magnet Master: I have indeed been quite busy lately.
Magnet Lord: But I still have time to see you.

Magnet Lord: Come to the Refining Department tonight. I'll give you a check-up and see how the Heavenly Kunlun Mountain-Moving Divine Power works.
Zhang Yu: I'll be busy with construction site matters these next few days.

Magnet Master: I originally wanted to talk to you about your major change.

Magnet Lord: Since you don't have time, then let's do it next time.

Zhang Yu: It's alright. This project is for Wanfa University. The construction site is very close to the university town; it only takes about ten minutes by plane, so it's very convenient to come here.
……

That night.

Ye Xingli walked out of the weapon-refining laboratory and paused slightly, looking at the figure not far ahead.

"Zhang Yu? What's he doing here?"

"Could it be..."

After a moment's thought, Ye Xingli followed him, watching Zhang Yu walk into the familiar office direction. She thought to herself, "Just as I expected."

"That direction only leads to the teacher's office. So Zhang Yu really came to see the teacher?"

"Why is he coming to see the teacher at this hour instead of working overtime?"

Ye Xingli thought to herself, "Could it be... private tutoring?"

"The teacher values ​​him so much... Will Zhang Yu really transfer to the weapon crafting department after his junior year?"
