This actor is full of tricks.

Lin Jue left Xinzhou the next day. He did not go directly back to Sanjiang, but went to the Golden Rose Hotel in Jiuyuan. To his disappointment, Spider was nowhere to be found, and the owner could not be found either.

"Where are these two guys?"

Lin Jue looked at the newly built building next door. Since that boss was going to do this disaster-swallowing thing, he definitely wouldn't leave. Maybe he was worried that Spider had already been discovered by the Inspection Department last time, so he was hiding temporarily to avoid the limelight.

He left a message for the receptionist via Fetion, sent her a 500 yuan red envelope, and instructed her to let him know when the boss returned, and to keep it a secret.

The receptionist accepted the red envelope and gave Lin Jue an OK sign. Only then did Lin Jue leave with peace of mind. Before leaving Jiuyuan, he went to see Qi Lin.

After leaving the Golden Rose Hotel, Qi Lin had been driving for ride-hailing services. When he heard that Lin Jue was coming to see him, he even stopped taking orders in the afternoon and had his wife cook several elaborate dishes.

"Thank you for your hard work, sister-in-law." Lin Jue thanked the woman sitting on the sofa. The woman was feeding her child and just smiled when she heard Lin Jue's voice, without saying anything.

The smile looked forced, and there was an unyielding sorrow on the woman's face.

Lin Jue was taken aback. He glanced at Qi Lin, who looked a little embarrassed, and then at the child who was just over two years old. He probably understood why the woman was frowning.

Qi Lin used to be a room manager at a five-star hotel. Now that he's lost his job, he has no income. Although driving for a ride-hailing service can help supplement his income, the income is ultimately unstable, and his social security contributions have been cut off.

"Isn't your sister-in-law coming to eat?" Lin Jue called out to the woman, thinking to himself that he could finally resolve Qi Lin's job problem today.

He now has connections in the inspection departments of Sanjiang and Xinzhou, so it would be very easy for him to get someone in. Moreover, Sanjiang and Xinzhou are not far from Jiuyuan, and it only takes two hours to drive home every weekend.

"Never mind, I'm not hungry, you guys eat." The woman gave a weak smile, not very interested.

This was actually a bit of a disservice to Lin Jue, which Lin Jue could understand. He already had no income, and to be treated to lavish meals, especially with a child to support, would make anyone uncomfortable.

"It's alright, it's alright, ignore her." Qi Lin urged Lin Jue to sit down quickly.

"How can that be? How can I cook for my sister-in-law without considering whether she'll eat it or not?" Lin Jue was still clear-headed. He coughed lightly and asked, "Brother Qi, do you have any requirements regarding work?"

Qi Lin gave a wry smile: "What can an unemployed person like me ask for? These days, it's really hard to find a job, and I'm getting old, so there's no place that would hire me."

"If there were a job in another city, such as Sanjiang or Xinzhou, would you be willing to go? The benefits are quite good, with a monthly salary of 8000 yuan, 18 months' salary per year, social security and housing fund contributions at the highest rate based on the base amount, and normal weekends off unless there are special circumstances, plus a subsidy for working in another city."

During his time in the Inspection Department, Lin Jue had already inquired about the salaries and benefits of various jobs. It has to be said that the Inspection Department was indeed very wealthy and generous, and its benefits were truly exceptional. Even the most basic clerical positions offered salaries far exceeding those of most jobs on the market.

"There's such a job? Eighteen months' salary a year?" Qi Lin was stunned. His monthly salary at the Golden Rose Hotel was at least 8000 yuan, but he only got thirteen months' salary a year. Compared to that, it was five months' salary more, a full 40,000 yuan!
Not to mention other benefits and perks, there's no comparison at all. Service industries like hotels basically don't have any rest days; even a single day off on weekends requires a make-up day.

He was a little skeptical, after all, Lin Jue was just a backpacker, how could he possibly have such a good job opportunity?

So he just took Lin Jue's words as a joke and replied in a joking tone, "If there really was such a good job, I'd go to another city, or even another province, let alone another city."

"Hey, there really are!" Lin Jue smiled slightly: "They're in the Inspection Division, with positions available in Sanjiang and Xinzhou." The Inspection Division!?

Qi Lin was stunned. His wife, who was sitting on the sofa, also looked over, unable to understand why a backpacker could provide a job in the Inspection Department.

The Inspection Department is very difficult for ordinary people to get into. Even for clerical jobs, it's impossible to get in without a certain level of competence.

Their first reaction was that Lin Jue was bragging.

Lin Jue saw through their thoughts and laughed, "I won't hide it from you anymore. Actually, I'm a field investigator in the Inspection Department, and I have certain authority to introduce people to work there."

Qi Lin is a good person. He was willing to lose his job to expose what the boss of Golden Rose had done. He is a person worth befriending. Moreover, if the other party really enters the investigation department, he will find out some things sooner or later. It is better to say something in advance.

"Inspection Department? Field Investigator? Brother, don't lie to your wife." Qi Lin's wife stopped feeding him and came closer, her face full of suspicion, yet with a hint of expectation in it.

If what Lin Jue said is true, then their family's income will be guaranteed.

"Of course, I wouldn't lie to you." To prove the reliability of his words, Lin Jue opened his palm, and a bright flame instantly ignited in his palm.

When they saw the ball of flame, Qi Lin and his wife had the exact same expression: they covered their mouths tightly and stared wide-eyed: "Oh my god!!"

An ordinary backpacker suddenly transforms into an investigator with extraordinary abilities, a stark contrast that leaves the couple stunned for a long time.

While the couple was still in shock, Lin Jue quickly called Chen Fu. The first thing Chen Fu said when he answered the phone left him a little stunned: "I was just about to call you. Did you offend Xiao Lin again? She's been asking us for information about you lately."

"I didn't." Lin Jue was confused. He had only bothered Xiao Lin a few times recently, and he couldn't say that he had offended him. A director wouldn't be so narrow-minded.

But he quickly realized that they were investigating him!

But let them investigate. Some things can't be hidden from the behemoth that is the Inspection Department.

Lin Jue steered the conversation toward Qi Lin's work, and Chen Fu readily agreed, telling Qi Lin to just go and report directly.

After hanging up the phone, he saw Qi Lin and his wife looking at him expectantly, and immediately smiled and said, "It's all settled. As long as you don't have to report to Sanjiang this week, it's fine. Don't worry about the clerical work, there's no danger at all."

Upon hearing Lin Jue's words, Qi Lin and his wife exchanged a glance, speechless. In the end, Qi Lin's wife reacted the fastest, becoming exceptionally enthusiastic.

"Quick, quick! Brother, have a seat!"

"Is there enough food? I'll go make you some braised fish!"

"Honey, hurry up and get that bottle of red wine you've been saving, and open it!" (End of Chapter)
