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

Chapter 552 Administrative Measures Also Have Their Merits (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

After sending Zhang Yu to online classes, Gui Yuanzi sent a message to Jin Jun.

Gui Yuanzi: It's all arranged. He's obediently going to his online classes now.

Jin Jun: Thank you very much, senior brother. I will definitely repay you handsomely.
Gui Yuanzi nodded slightly upon seeing Jin Jun's reply and replied: "Only spirit coins."
As an old Golden Core cultivator, Gui Yuanzi's technical skills are increasingly lagging behind those of the new generation of Golden Core cultivators.

He had thought about working hard, being determined, and putting in the effort, but he found that the newly promoted Golden Core cultivators in the school over the years were all smarter, more talented, more qualified, and had better backgrounds than him.

He is increasingly unable to keep up, and now he can only teach courses such as the history of weapon crafting technology. His projects and experiments are also struggling to run.

Gui Yuanzi estimated that he would be squeezed out of the weapon crafting department and transferred to some trash major like security or transportation in the future... it was only a matter of time.

But he has come to terms with it now and no longer associates with other Golden Core cultivators. He focuses all his attention on making money, and he's willing to do anything that isn't illegal as long as he's paid.

Making as much money as possible and living a few more years is his only wish right now.

For a student as young as Zhang Yu, having the other party make up for the missed lessons legally and compliantly was naturally not a big deal in his eyes.

Seeing that the other person was still obediently attending class, Gui Yuanzi thought to himself, "Is this kid stupid? He's really attending class? Doesn't he know to slip me some money?"

"Did I not hint enough?"

Just as Gui Yuanzi was thinking about whether he should give Zhang Yu more hints, he found that Zhang Yu had left the Spirit Realm Classroom and exited the online class he had initiated.

"Huh?" Gui Yuanzi was slightly taken aback, then flew into a rage: "This kid skipped class for me?"

In Guiyuanzi's view, skipping class in front of everyone was a blatant slap in the face.

He immediately sent a message to Zhang Yu: Where are you?

Gui Yuanzi: Get back here to class right now!

Gui Yuanzi: Otherwise, you can forget about passing this course.

Just then, Gui Yuanzi's eyes flashed, and he saw a message from Feng Yuhan of the Research Department.

As the head of the research department, Feng Yuhan naturally had access to Gui Yuanzi's applications for various project funds and loans. To Gui Yuanzi, he was an important superior and a leader who should never be offended.

Upon seeing the message from the other party, Gui Yuanzi felt a chill: "Let's talk about Zhang Yu later."

He immediately left the spirit world and went to the research office.

Upon entering the office, one could see Feng Yuhan's eyes gleaming, as if he were doing something.

The image of a rudimentary intelligent spirit assistant appeared before Gui Yuanzi's eyes. The spirit said to him, "Teacher Gui Yuanzi, Director Feng is currently working. Please wait a moment."

Gui Yuanzi nodded and sat down to wait.

And this wait lasted for a full two hours.

Two hours later, Feng Yuhan glanced at him and sent him a document.

"The application for funding is not written correctly. Take it back and rewrite it. Come and hand it to me tonight."

Gui Yuanzi was slightly taken aback, then became nervous.

Although he doesn't have many projects or experiments under his supervision, and the funding is not much, at least half of every penny he receives goes into his own pocket, which is an important source of his income.

Upon hearing that the application materials needed to be rewritten, Gui Yuanzi quickly asked, "Director Feng, please tell me what the problem is, and I'll revise it immediately..."

Feng Yuhan frowned impatiently and said, "They're all problems. Rewrite them all."

"Alright, you can leave now. Don't waste your time here."

"If I don't receive your materials by 10 p.m. tonight, I'll assume you're not going to allocate any funds."

After returning, Gui Yuanzi thought to himself that the material was indeed written too perfunctorily, which was why it was rejected by the research department.

So he spent a lot of effort rewriting the entire document, and when he felt it was flawless, he sent it to Feng Yuhan.

Feng Yuhan glanced at the file sent by the other party, and said without looking up, "Still no good."

Gui Yuanzi was slightly taken aback: "Huh?"

Feng Yuhan said coldly, "Guiyuanzi, do you still want to apply for funding or not?"

"Take it back and rewrite it."

"Write carefully and think hard about where the problem lies."

Completely bewildered, Gui Yuanzi returned home and went to great lengths to find reference materials and seek guidance on his writing.

The next day, he nervously delivered the materials again.

But just as Gui Yuanzi sent out the document, Feng Yuhan snorted coldly, a flash of lightning in his eyes, and exploded right in front of Gui Yuanzi.

"Guiyuanzi, you're a veteran in the weapon crafting department. It's one thing if your skills aren't up to par, but now you can't even write an application?"

Gui Yuanzi said helplessly, "Director Feng, just tell me directly what the problem is..." Feng Yuhan said coldly, "Do I have to teach you how to write such a small thing? What have you done with your life? You've completely disgraced the Golden Core stage."

Gui Yuanzi never expected that Feng Yuhan would berate him so harshly as soon as he opened his mouth.

Looking at the director who was younger than himself, Gui Yuanzi felt a surge of magical power in his chest. Along with the surge of magical power, the light and shadow in his eyes flickered and jumped.

But considering that his funds were still in the other party's hands, Guiyuanzi could only suppress his displeasure and continue to listen to the other party's reprimand.

“You old Golden Core cultivators, you relied on the good times of the past to get to the Golden Core stage, but you don’t know how to be grateful to the school and the sect. You just drift through the years, and I think you’re getting more and more senile.”

After another round of criticism, Feng Yuhan pointed to the table next to him and said, "Write here, and show it to me as soon as you're done. Ask me any questions you may have."

Gui Yuanzi gritted his teeth and could only sit in a corner of the office like a student, silently writing materials.

A moment later, another person entered the office; it was Zhang Yu.

"Zhang Yu is here?" Feng Yuhan chuckled and said, "I've already received your experimental loan application and approved it. You don't need to come in person."

Zhang Yu said, "Thank you very much, Teacher Feng."

Feng Yuhan nodded and said, "Don't forget to participate in the projects of True Monarch Magnetism and True Monarch String Sound as well. If you have any problems, let me know and I will do my best to help you solve them."

Zhang Yu smiled slightly. He hadn't expected that Feng Yuhan would immediately take action after he mentioned yesterday that Guiyuanzi's tutoring might affect his participation in the Nascent Soul Reincarnation experiment.

In Feng Yuhan's view, he had already compressed Zhang Yu's time to participate in the experiment to the limit. If it was delayed any further, the Nascent Soul True Monarchs from the Weapon Refining Department would cause trouble for him again.

As for the history of weapon crafting technology... can that be considered a course?
He glanced at Gui Yuanzi and thought that next year he should propose changing this course to self-study and kicking Gui Yuanzi to the transportation department to deliver packages, so that he wouldn't stay in the weapon forging department to mooch off funding.

As for taking the opportunity to befriend Zhang Yu, Feng Yuhan thought it was a good idea. As a follower of an evil god, he gradually realized that befriending the forces of the righteous god was the right path for the evil god, and something a believer should do.

“Zhang Yu has connections with righteous gods. Having a good relationship with him will also help me in my future work as a follower of evil gods.”

As the two exchanged pleasantries, Gui Yuanzi felt as if a thunderbolt had struck his mind, thinking, "Zhang Yu and Director Feng are so close?"

"Jin Jun! You've ruined me!"

He cursed Jin Jun in his heart, then looked at Zhang Yu and said, "Zhang Yu..."

"What did you say?" Feng Yuhan glanced at the other person coldly: "Just focus on writing your report."

Seeing Gui Yuanzi's obedient appearance, Zhang Yu had to admit in his heart: "Teachers who are in charge of administration do have their merits. Some projects and some teachers in this university town should be properly managed and deserve strong action."

Shortly after Zhang Yu left Feng Yuhan's office, he received a message from Gui Yuanzi.

Guiyuanzi: Zhang Yu, the teacher acted impulsively a few days ago.
Gui Yuanzi: From now on, you can come to the teacher's class whenever you want, and you can ask for leave whenever you want. The teacher will give you full marks in all of them.

Zhang Yu: Teacher, you can just approve the leave according to the normal procedure.

Zhang Yu: As for the score, just give me whatever score I get, please don't give me any special treatment.

Having resolved the problem with Guiyuanzi, Zhang Yu once again devoted himself wholeheartedly to the manufacture of the prototype machine.

……

Inside Jin Jun's laboratory.

Under the guidance of a teacher hired at a high price, Jin Jun felt that the efficiency of his refining process had greatly increased. Any omissions or mistakes in each step were immediately pointed out, making him feel that he was improving every minute and every second.

With the final debugging completed, the prototype machine in front of us was finally successfully crafted, and it reached a level of 5 upon completion.

Jin Jun nodded in satisfaction as he looked at the test data. He opened the friends interface in his eye and found that the money he sent to Gui Yuanzi had been accepted by the other party.

He then sent a message to the other party, but received a notification: You are not yet their friend.
Jin Jun was slightly taken aback: "He deleted me as a friend?"

Jin Jun frowned, unsure of what was going on, but looking at the Level 5 prototype machine beside him, he smiled again.

Based on what he learned from Su Yunni over the past few days, after Zhang Yu completed the forging of the Level 1 prototype machine, he focused solely on speed and the accumulation of materials, making the entire project seem chaotic.

In Jin Jun's view, this exposed Zhang Yu's true skill level, and his unstable mentality caused the entire laboratory to become increasingly chaotic.

"A civil engineer is just a civil engineer; when it comes to real skills in weapon forging, he's no match."

Over the next month, under the guidance of a highly paid teacher, Jin Jun made rapid progress, the improvement of the prototype machine became smoother and smoother, and his condition improved. The entire laboratory was busy yet orderly, which made him more and more confident in obtaining his military certification.

……

mid-December.

Inside Ye Xingli's laboratory.

As the final barrier was infused, Zhang Yu watched the prototype machine before him shine brightly, and a slight joy welled up in his heart.

He finally upgraded this prototype of the Heavenly Sun God to level 11.
