One person: Lu family bodyguard, who shattered Longhu Mountain with a single palm strike.
Chapter 18: A 5 Yuan Errand Runner Job! What office worker could refuse such an opportunity after ho
"Fifty thousand dollars? No tax required?"
Lin Mo stared at his phone screen, and his body, which had been leaning against the headboard, instantly sat up straight.
His fingers flew across the keyboard as he quickly made a video call back to Xu Xiang.
The video call was connected after only one ring.
Xu Xiang's face, which was grinning like an old chrysanthemum, appeared on the screen, with the background showing him sitting in the back seat of a car.
"Hey, Brother Lin, I'm so sorry to bother you after get off work."
Lin Mo's expression was serious: "Mr. Xu, you're too kind. As long as the price is right, my off-hours are always open to you. But let's get this straight first, what kind of work is it?"
Xu Xiang chuckled and lowered his voice: "It's not a big problem. There's an abandoned chemical plant in the eastern suburbs of the city. Recently, there have been some abnormal fluctuations in Qi there. Our company's monitoring equipment has triggered an alarm and has been classified as a 'Level D risk'."
"Level D risk?"
Lin Mo raised an eyebrow.
Xu Xiang explained, "This is the company's ranking of task difficulty, with D-level risk being the lowest level."
Lin Mo looked knowing and said, "Oh, please continue."
"Yes, according to the initial investigation, it is estimated that some unorthodox cultivator went into qi deviation while practicing over there."
Xu Xiang sighed, looking worried: "Logically speaking, for something like this, you could just send a field agent to investigate. But these past two days, Quanxing has been making a big fuss, and all the people in the North China region have been sent out. I even sent Bao Bao to keep an eye on a line."
"I simply don't have anyone available to scout the location. That's why I thought of Brother Lin, you just got off work today and you're quite skilled."
Xu Xiang leaned closer to the screen: "Fifty thousand yuan, just consider it running errands for my old brother, going over to check the situation. If the person is dead, take a picture; if the person is still alive and going crazy, just suppress them and call the company to take them in."
"How was it? Was this job easy?"
Lin Mo stroked his chin, his mind racing with calculations.
Level D risk: abandoned factory, rogue cultivator who has gone mad.
For someone who now possesses 107 years of pure internal energy, this isn't a risk at all; it's like picking up free money!
However, as a professional worker, Lin Mo would never blindly accept orders.
"Mr. Xu, there are a few details I need to confirm."
"First, this errand-running job must be finished by 8 a.m. tomorrow at the latest. It absolutely cannot affect my ability to clock in at the Lu family home on time at 9 a.m. tomorrow."
"Secondly, 50,000 yuan is the minimum. If the other party doesn't cooperate, forcing me to use force, resulting in damaged clothes or mental trauma, is there any additional workers' compensation?"
"Third, if you're not using the company account, do you plan to transfer the money via WeChat or Alipay?"
Xu Xiang, on the other side of the screen, was stunned.
He knew Lin Mo was a money-grubbing worker, but he never expected him to be so meticulous!
"Okay! No problem!"
Xu Xiang slapped his thigh: "As long as it's done before eight o'clock tomorrow morning, it definitely won't delay your work!"
"If we really go through with this, I'll add 20,000 yuan to your workers' compensation, the highest standard! I'll transfer the money to you privately via WeChat, and you need to pay half as a deposit immediately!"
"Mr. Xu is so generous!"
Lin Mo's face instantly broke into a genuine smile.
"bite--"
The WeChat notification sounded, and the transfer of 25,000 yuan arrived smoothly.
"Received. Mr. Xu, please send me the location. I'll take the job."
After hanging up the video call, Lin Mo looked at the extra balance in his WeChat wallet and felt great.
Part-time job after get off work, 50,000 yuan in income!
Money is so easy to make in this world of supernatural beings!
Putting away his phone, Lin Mo opened the door and prepared to go to the kitchen to get some water.
Just as he reached the corner of the first-floor corridor, he bumped into Lu Linglong, who had just come out of the basement training room.
Lu Linglong was wearing a pink tracksuit, her forehead was still a little sweaty, and she was wiping her face with a towel.
She looked up and saw Lin Mo walking towards her with a beaming smile.
"You found some money? You're smiling so happily."
Lu Linglong looked at him suspiciously.
Just now at the training ground, this money-grubber didn't even smile like this when he made two thousand yuan from Lu Lin.
Lin Mo composed himself and said seriously, "Good evening, boss. I didn't find any money; I just took on a side job and I'm in a good mood."
"Side jobs?"
Lu Linglong stopped wiping her sweat, her eyes widening in surprise.
"Lin Mo, are you kidding me? You're the Lu family's personal bodyguard!"
"I'm paying you a base salary of 30,000 a month, and you're taking on side jobs while working at my house?"
Lu Linglong's face darkened, and she walked up to Lin Mo angrily: "Do you think my Lu family manor is just a transit point for you?"
Lin Mo took a half step back, maintaining a safe distance.
He took out his phone, skillfully pulled out the electronic version of the bodyguard employment contract, and shoved it in front of Lu Linglong.
"Boss, please watch your wording. First of all, it's 5:40 now, which is my personal time to leave work."
"Secondly, the third clause on page six of the contract clearly states that employees have the right to freely use all their time after get off work, provided it does not interfere with the employer's safety protection work the following day."
Finally, our contract does not include a non-compete clause.
Lin Mo put away his phone and shrugged.
"So, as long as I don't sell you to someone else, whether I deliver food, drive for Didi, or take on private bodyguard jobs after get off work is my personal freedom."
"you……"
Lu Linglong was speechless after being rebuked, her beautiful big eyes staring intently at Lin Mo.
What is this?
You hired a highly skilled person at a high price, only to have them go and work for someone else after work?
Wouldn't that make it seem like the Lu family wasn't treating her well enough, forcing her employees to take on part-time jobs to make a living?
"Lin Mo, if you need money, just tell me! At worst... at worst, you can be my sparring partner!"
"Why did you go out and take on such a shady job? What if you get injured? Who will protect me tomorrow?"
Lu Linglong panicked and grabbed Lin Mo's sleeve.
Lin Mo gently pulled out his sleeve and patted off the dust.
"Boss, thank you for your concern. But when it comes to part-time jobs, it's all about maximizing income and minimizing expenses."
"You need to make your own money, but you can't let go of money from outside either. As an employee, my motto is: There are only bosses who don't have enough money to pay, and no employees who don't earn enough to live on."
"Also, I will be there for you at nine o'clock tomorrow morning, full of energy, and I will definitely not miss the clock-in."
After Lin Mo finished speaking, he nodded slightly in acknowledgment, walked past the fuming Lu Linglong, and strolled to the kitchen to get some water.
Lu Linglong stood there, her chest heaving violently, clearly very angry.
"That money-grubber! He's driving me crazy!"
"Has my Lu family ever been short of food or clothing for you!"
She stomped her feet and muttered as she walked upstairs.
The stairwell on the second floor not far away.
Lu Jin stood with her hands behind her back, quietly watching this scene.
Instead of being angry, the old man smiled.
He hadn't missed hearing Lin Mo answer the phone.
Although I couldn't hear the specifics, who else could be the one to use 50,000 yuan to get Lin Mo out of work after get off work, besides Xu Xiang, who I just added on WeChat today?
"Grandpa, what are you laughing at? Linglong is about to explode with anger because of him."
Lu Lin walked up to Lu Jin at some point and followed his gaze downwards.
"Linglong is such a stubborn girl."
Lu Jin shook his head and lowered his voice: "This kid is impervious to reason, he only cares about contracts and money. That old fox Xu Xiang wants to test him with 50,000 yuan, to get him to work as free labor."
"Isn't this a bad thing?" Lu Lin frowned.
"Of course it's not a bad thing."
A glint of shrewdness flashed in Lu Jin's eyes: "What kind of place is 'Na Du Tong'? It's the government's lackeys!"
"If Xu Xiang really values him, then this kid will have a hidden talisman to protect him when he acts in the world of supernatural beings."
"Although our Lu family is not afraid of trouble, having an official connection is only beneficial and not harmful."
Lu Jin patted Lu Lin on the shoulder.
"As long as this kid keeps clocking in and working for the Lu family, it doesn't matter whose money he earns or whose services he does; it's a win-win situation for us!"
……
Night fell.
The Lu family manor returned to tranquility.
It was exactly 11 p.m.
The guest room window was opened silently.
A dark figure, like an owl, nimbly vaulted out of the window.
Lin Mo changed into a neat black tracksuit and wore a disposable black face mask.
He lightly touched the lawn with his toes, and his 107 years of pure internal energy suddenly flowed.
"The Amazing Journey: Wall-Walking"!
His figure left a trail of afterimages in the night as he silently scaled the high walls of the manor.
It landed silently, without even disturbing the dust on the wall.
Lin Mo glanced at the location on his phone; it was about 20 kilometers away.
He took a deep breath of the cool night air, and the heavy true qi within his body suddenly erupted.
The ground beneath his feet left a shallow crater, and Lin Mo launched himself forward, instantly disappearing into the deep night.
An extra 50,000 yuan.
I am coming!
……
New book launch, hoping for some small gifts to support me!
