The more part-time jobs the better
Lin Yandong's expression stiffened. Was he really being this direct? I haven't even finished my pleasantries yet. All that time I spent building up to this was for nothing.
"President Lin, let's skip the pleasantries."
Lin Yuan leaned back into the sofa, shifting into a more comfortable position. "I have hundreds of thousands moving through my hands every minute, so just get to the point."
"Alright then..."
"I'll get straight to it."
"Ten million a month, and you just need to hold a nominal position; you don't need to come to the Professionals Association usually."
"If another regional Dungeon event occurs, the fee for your intervention will be a minimum of fifty million per instance."
"What do you think?"
Lin Yandong didn't play games; he laid out his conditions straightforwardly.
Lin Yuan stood up and extended his right hand toward Lin Yandong.
"Deal."
"President Lin is truly a man who does big things."
"I believe that under President Lin's leadership, the Tianfeng City Professionals Association will surely grow stronger and reach new heights of glory."
Lin Yandong reached out and shook Lin Yuan's hand.
"Hahaha, no need to call me President Lin, that's too formal. Just call me Brother Lin. I'll take the liberty of calling you Brother Lin, so don't mind it."
"Oh, right. I still have plenty of geese. If you need any, just say the word, and I'll personally deliver them to your home."
At this time yesterday, Lin Yandong was still heartbroken over the two swans he raised being eaten. Today, he had completely changed his tune—as long as Lin Yuan needed them, what swans? They were just geese.
Swans could be raised again, but if Lin Yuan wasn't satisfied and joined another city's Professionals Association, Lin Yandong would suffer a huge loss.
Although the Professionals Association of the Xia Kingdom was all one family, the presidents of the various regional associations were secretly competing. Whoever had a super genius appear in their area could drive the overall growth of that entire region.
Just like Mu Tianxing, who hailed from Heishui City in the Northwest Province. Before he became famous, Heishui City was obscure, had pitifully few Dungeons, and the number of Professionals was less than ten thousand.
But after Mu Tianxing burst onto the scene, Dungeons began appearing frequently in Heishui City, yet every single one was cleared by the team led by Mu Tianxing. In just five years, the number of Dungeons multiplied several times over, attracting over a hundred thousand Professionals to enter Heishui City. Heishui City jumped from a second-rate city to one of the top three cities in the Northwest Province. What did it rely on? It was the fortune of a super genius.
Now, Lin Yuan was the Child of Fortune capable of making Tianfeng City take off. As long as Lin Yuan could stay in Tianfeng City, regional Dungeon events like today's would become more and more frequent. There would be challenges, but there would be even more opportunities.
Therefore, Lin Yandong had to do everything possible to build a good relationship with Lin Yuan. Even if Lin Yuan left Tianfeng City in the future, he wouldn't forget that this was a place where he had once lived.
After lowering his hand, Lin Yandong said to Lin Yuan,
"There are less than two months left until the college entrance exam. As long as you are willing, you can pick any of the three top universities: Magic City University, Jingdu University, or Demon Suppression University."
"I heard that Professor Cheng Feng from Jingdu University has already talked to you, and you didn't agree."
"That was the right choice."
"At your rate of growth, I'm afraid you will have already completed your Class Transfer Mission by the time the college entrance exam arrives."
"The treatment for an SS-grade seed is too low."
Pausing for a moment, Lin Yandong had a sudden thought.
"The treatment for an SSS-grade student actually doesn't match your worth either."
"I have a suggestion, I don't know if you'd be willing to hear it."
"Oh, what suggestion?" Lin Yuan showed an interested expression. "President Lin, please elaborate."
"You could be a teacher at Jingdu University." A smile appeared at the corner of Lin Yandong's mouth.
"Your strength already crushes all the students, and no matter who you team up with, they are just a drag on you."
"It's better to continue on your path of soloing."
"Besides, the treatment for a special-grade teacher at Jingdu University is much better than that of an SSS-grade seed."
"Next time Cheng Feng comes, you can negotiate with him like this."
"A teacher at Jingdu University." Lin Yuan muttered to himself, then immediately showed an expression of being tempted.
Come to think of it, this suggestion was actually quite good.
There were less than two months until the college entrance exam, and Lin Yuan's strength could be said to change every day. When the exam started, Lin Yuan's strength would absolutely be a crushing, gap-leaping dominance over the other students. Always playing in the 'baby cup' wasn't very interesting anyway.
Lin Yuan imagined a scene: those self-important geniuses finishing the exam, waiting one by one to be admitted to Jingdu University, while he himself became a special-grade teacher at Jingdu University, in charge of all admissions matters.
Sigh, come to think of it, really, this scene was too dramatic.
"Hahaha." Lin Yuan laughed loudly. "President Lin, this suggestion of yours is excellent."
After speaking, Lin Yuan gave Lin Yandong a thumbs up. "I like it very much."
"Hahaha." Lin Yandong also laughed loudly.
"If this suggestion were applied to anyone else, it would be a pipe dream."
"But for Brother Lin, it's just right."
Liao Chen listened from the side, feeling a bit bitter. Damn, that's Jingdu University! Others would break their heads trying to get in as students, but Lin Yuan, on the other hand, skipped the student stage and started acting as a teacher.
Liao Chen fantasized for a moment; if the person were himself, it would definitely be incredibly awesome.
Just as Liao Chen was lost in thought, Lin Yuan suddenly said,
"Captain Liao, I previously killed a spy from the Dark Knight Guild inside the Dungeon. Isn't the Law Enforcement Team going to award me a Good Citizen Medal?"
"Even if there's no medal, a bonus of one or two million would be fine." He had finished fleecing the Professionals Association; it was now the Law Enforcement Team's turn.
Liao Chen snapped back to reality and widened his eyes.
"No way, you're already making ten million a month, and you won't even let go of this little bit of money?"
"Look at what you're saying." Lin Yuan sighed.
"Captain Liao, you don't know how expensive daily necessities are until you're in charge."
"I started from scratch; is it easy to raise two Summoned Beasts?"
"I have to split every penny into two to spend."
Liao Chen rolled his eyes. "Stop acting poor in front of me."
"You just sold equipment for thirty million this morning."
"The pinned post on the Professional Forum has tens of thousands of people paying to watch the attachment."
"I wouldn't dare say too much, but you've definitely made at least ten million, right?"
"President Lin just transferred this month's salary to you."
"Your assets, kid, are definitely over fifty million."
Lin Yuan was stunned, then sighed.
"Captain Liao, it's easy to conquer the world, but hard to keep it."
"I've gotten used to the hard times; if I don't have a few hundred million in my hands, I feel panicked."
Liao Chen: ... Lin Yandong: ... Luo Yushang: ...
After a long while, Liao Chen finally realized what was happening.
"You want to join the Law Enforcement Team?"
"What's the compensation?"
"A monthly salary of three million, six insurances and three funds, but there is danger when going out on missions."
"However, the more dangerous the mission, the more generous the reward."
Danger? Lin Yuan chuckled inwardly. That doesn't exist; it's hard for me to even die.
Lin Yuan extended his hand toward Liao Chen.
"The compensation or whatever isn't important; I mainly want to contribute to Tianfeng City."
