omnipotent office

"...No. 14, Rose Street, this is it."

The young man raised his head from the recruitment advertisements in his hands, blinked his dark eyes, and checked again and again the old big characters on the store that were almost faded - omnipotent office.

"The name looks so powerful!" The young man was a little excited, and You evened the folds of the shirt hem with a three-point nervousness. He carefully pushed open the glass door with the opening sign on it, and leaned halfway in, "Excuse me... …Is anyone here?"

This is an old living room, with strange dark wooden furniture and scattered furnishings piled up in an orderly manner, leaving only a narrow aisle. There is no hostess at home all year round.

"Who are you looking for?"

A sharp and broken voice startled him, and the young man subconsciously replied, "I'm looking for the boss here."

He followed the prestige and saw a wooden birdcage hanging obliquely above the entrance. The fence was painted in an exaggerated and gorgeous rainbow color by someone, but it complemented the parrot with its head held high and gorgeous feathers in the cage.

At this moment, the parrot was staring at the young man condescendingly, shaking its feathers in protest, and calling in a strange tone: "Who are you?"

"..." Are all the birds so smart now?The youth couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

"This little friend, are you...?" A baritone voice with doubts brought him back to his thoughts. The young man turned his head, and a middle-aged man with a big belly was struggling to sit up straight from the sunken sofa. Maybe it was him The smoky gray Tang suit on his body was so similar to the color of the sofa that the young man for a moment ignored that there was such a big living person.

The young man left the parrot behind, and trotted over: "Well, my name is Bai Jian, and I'm here to apply for an assistant job. Are you the boss here?"

"Boss? I'm not—" The man froze for a moment and waved his hands. Just as the sound of unhurried footsteps came from the stairwell on the second floor, the two looked up together.

In the backlight, a tall and tall figure walked down the stairs. Soft cotton home shoes stepped on the stairs slowly, slowly stepping into the morning light. The loose casual pants, light blue shirt, the cuffs rolled up to the elbows, A section of strong forearm was exposed, the man was holding a cup of tea in his hand, and the other hand stretched five fingers to comb his hair casually, half of his face was covered, only his thin lips and thin chin were vaguely seen.

The man leaned on the railing, sipped tea to moisten his throat, and cast a casual glance at the two uninvited guests in the living room. The open neckline and messy black hair all complained about the unhappiness of being disturbed in his clear dream.

He yawned, and said slowly: "It's early in the morning, don't you two stay under the covers, come to me to drink tea? This is not served earlier."

"Brother Duan! You've figured it out!" The fat man, who looked unusually bulky just now, jumped up from the sofa in an instant, and under Bai Jian's dumbfounded gaze, he sprinted [-] meters to the stairs, put on a With a smiling face, "Brother Duan, you... did you sleep well?"

Duan Huichuan blew on the floating leaves and swallowed the tea: "If you don't disturb me early in the morning, I can sleep better."

Bai Jian thought silently, it's already past 9 o'clock, why is it so early in the morning...

Zhang Pan smiled and said, "Brother Duan, I've been waiting for you for more than an hour. What did you think about what I told you yesterday? This is a matter of human life, time waits for no one, no matter how late , I’m afraid it’s not good for people!”

Duan Huichuan put the nostalgic enamel teacup with the big characters "Diligent and thrifty to manage the family, and sooner or later will prosper" on the coffee table, lazily nestled on the sofa, looked at him with a half-smile and said, "You told me yesterday, then The daughter of the boss of Tang's Jewelry is lying in the hospital, her physical signs are all normal, why, did she lie to me?"

"No, no, of course not!" Zhang Pan said awkwardly, "I have been referred to three major hospitals, and I have checked everything that can be checked. It is true that everything is normal, but I am still unconscious. It is precisely because The hospital couldn't find out why, and the boss of the Tang Corporation suspected that his daughter had been bewitched by evil spirits and provoked something dirty, so he asked us to come to Longhu Mountain through his relationship."

Duan Huichuan rested his chin on one hand, raised his chin at him, and said with a smile, "Aren't you a foreign disciple of Longhushan here? If you have a brother, you can catch him with your hands."

Hearing the word "Longhushan", Bai Jian, who was standing silently in front of the background board, glanced at Zhang Pan in surprise, and carefully sized up this unattractive fat man, muttering in her heart. The Taoist sect has a long tradition and great supernatural powers. Is this what it looks like?

It's true that people can't be judged by appearances, no wonder it is often said that the big hermit hides in the city, this is the demeanor of a master!Thinking of this, Bai Jian's eyes lit up, and the image of a greasy middle-aged man suddenly became unpredictable, and even that round body shape became a manifestation of Fuze's profoundness.

Zhang Pan's round face flushed slightly, coughed twice, and said, "You know, I do ritual things for people, and the Feng Shui is okay, and ordinary evil spirits can be driven away, but this time, there are indeed a few of them. It's very weird... Brother, I really have more than enough energy."

The foreign affairs disciples said it nicely, but in fact, they were just poorly qualified, and they were sent abroad only if they couldn't get the true instruction.Otherwise, he wouldn't have lowered his face and begged Duan Huichuan, the master who wouldn't enter the oil and salt, and wouldn't scatter eagles when he didn't see rabbits.Zhang Pan sighed in his heart, forgetting even the lament that he didn't eat breakfast.

"Brother Duan, as the saying goes, saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda..."

Bai Jian nodded and echoed, "Exactly! We are obliged!"

"...Oh no, who are you?" Duan Huichuan seemed to have just noticed that there was a third person here, glanced up and down at Bai Jian, then turned his head and shouted at the dozing parrot hanging by the door , "Fortune! Why did you let the weird guy in again?"

A parrot named Zhaocai groaned and pecked at the empty food bowl with its beak, protesting against its master's mistreatment.

Bai Jian hurriedly distinguished herself: "I'm not a weird guy, my name is Bai Jian, Bai Bai in the daytime, simple Jane, and I'm here to apply for an assistant!"

A wrinkled recruitment advertisement was handed to Duan Huichuan. He raised his eyebrows, but before he could open his mouth, Zhang Pan took the conversation away.

"A child can be taught. Brother Duan, what a good little brother, you earn money by being your assistant."

Duan Huichuan ignored him, squinted at Bai Jian for a moment, and asked, "What do you know?"

Bai Jian straightened her back and counted with her fingers: "I know a little bit about computers, English, and drawing. Oh, by the way, I even won the first place in the 50-meter sprint in the sports meeting when I was in middle school!"

Duan Huichuan said "Oh" noncommittally: "Is there anything else?"

Bai Jian racked her brains for a moment, then said anxiously: "You can cook, okay?"

"Forget it! Of course! This is good." Duan Huichuan's face bloomed with a warm smile like spring breeze melting snow, as if the indifference just now had never existed, and he patted the other party's shoulder earnestly, "The probationary period is three years. Monthly, three meals included, of course you can live if you want, rent, if you do a good job, you will not be charged, alas, who made me a kind and honest person. Salary is negotiable, work hard , I like you!"

Bai Jian couldn't believe her ears that she was hired so easily and allowed herself to eat and live for free. He looked at Duan Huichuan with bright eyes, moved his nose, and expressed his sincere gratitude: " Boss, you are such a good person!"

Duan Huichuan smiled reservedly: "It's easy to say, easy to say."

Zhang Pan curled his lips inwardly, if this guy is an honest person, wouldn't he be the reincarnated Bodhisattva?This poor child is afraid that he will be limped...

Duan Huichuan smiled, and showed a melancholy expression to Zhang Pan: "Brother Zhang, of course I have to give you face, but, as you have seen, I am too poor to afford money. I have a younger brother to support, and now I have another mouth to eat..."

Zhang Pan's heart twitched unceasingly when he heard it, where did he pretend to be generous just now?Turning around and crying poor with him, this shameless thing!

Even though he wanted to yell at the other party's ear, Zhang Pan had no choice but to endure it with great perseverance when he thought of how much he boasted in front of the boss of the Tang Corporation, and said with a smile on his face: "This reward, as long as my brother can help I am doing this favor, which of our brothers is with whom? Everything is easy to talk about, everything is easy to talk about."

Duan Huichuan looked at him and did not express his opinion.

Zhang Pan cursed secretly, gritted his teeth and said, "[-]%! As long as you do a good job, I will pay you an extra [-]%!"

Duan Huichuan sighed faintly, as if Zhaocai had been instructed, he knocked the empty bowl loudly, and sang with his master.

"..." Zhang Pan took a deep breath and held up two fingers, "Twenty percent, no more!"

Duan Huichuan then smiled and said: "Brother is really polite, how can you be ashamed?"

Why are you embarrassed?Zhang Pan rolled his eyes, and dragged his voice weakly: "It should, it should."

"Let's go now, don't delay any longer, it's late." After negotiating the conditions, Duan Huichuan changed his lazy attitude, stood up quickly, patted Bai Jian on the back of the head to signal him to follow, and rushed out in a hurry : "Brother Zhang, hurry up and lead the way, this life is at stake, time waits for no one! Lucky, take good care of the house, and bring you something to eat when you come back."

The three went around to the back door, Duan Huichuan took out the car keys from his trouser pocket, and the silver polo in the garage flashed double in response.

Zhang Pan paused, and asked suspiciously: "Why do you still drive this little broken car? Although you haven't made many shots in the past two years, you have earned a lot of money. Where did you spend it?"

Duan Huichuan said casually: "The car is not broken, and thrift is a traditional virtue."

Bai Jian belatedly followed the two into the car, saw that Duan returned to Sichuan without delay, and left without even thinking about breakfast, so she rushed straight to the hospital and clenched her fists movedly: "The boss is really a man!" Enthusiastic and righteous people, I really came to the right place."

Duan Huichuan held the steering wheel firmly, stared straight ahead with a serious face: "It's not worth mentioning what's in it."

The flesh on Zhang Pan's body trembled twice, and he covered his face in shame.
