c317: 179: [Direct Hiring]

"We’re just both getting what we want."

A slight smile played on Lin Shen’s lips. His warm, radiant grin deeply touched Chen Chi’s heart, allowing the once-deceived man to once again feel the warmth and kindness that could exist between strangers.

When he got home, he immediately and excitedly shared the good news with his wife, but she was a bit skeptical.

"Is there really someone that kind? He’s not just making you more empty promises, is he?"

"No way!"

Chen Chi took out his phone and showed his wife the bank transfer notification.

"Look, the five million has already been deposited. How could this be fake?"

"..."

He did have a point.

’Words and attitudes can be faked, but this money is real!’

’This is a full five million yuan!’

’Who could just pull out that much money?’

Lin Shen’s incredibly extravagant gesture dispelled most of the worries in Chen Chi’s wife’s heart. She then said gently,

"It seems like he’s a good boss. You should work hard for him. Maybe you can really make something of yourself."

"Yeah."

Chen Chi hugged his wife and said with deep emotion,

"I’m sorry you’ve had to suffer so much with me. From now on, I’ll get back on my feet and help Boss Lin run our dog cafe well!"

7:00 PM.

A jet-black Jaguar XFL was parked quietly by the roadside. The twilight glinted off its streamlined body, giving it an understated air.

Lin Shen sat in the driver’s seat, tossed the contract carelessly into the back, and opened his phone to check his ReceivePal tasks.

[Upgrade Task: Increase your total industry assets to 10,000,000 yuan (Three shops: 11,000,000/10,000,000, complete)]

[ReceivePal Lv. 11 → Lv. 12]

[Reward: Daily income 110,000/day → 120,000/day]

[Item: Designated App Cracking Card*1 (You can designate a sub-intermediate level app to crack)]

[Upgrade Task: Increase your total luxury car assets to 10,000,000 yuan (Jaguar XFL, Mercedes S680: 4,600,000/10,000,000)]

’Luxury cars?’

That was both unexpected and perfectly logical to Lin Shen.

After all, since ReceivePal’s 2.0 update, the last two tasks had been for total capital and total industry assets.

Now it was total luxury car assets. He wondered if the next one would be total real estate assets.

Lin Shen thought it was quite possible and began to ponder.

’Does it count as long as I’m the one who buys the car?’

’It should still count even if someone else drives it, right?’

A brand-new idea started to form in Lin Shen’s mind. Full of anticipation, he tapped the Designated App Cracking Card.

He’d long since decided what he wanted to crack.

Boss Direct-Hire!

As the number of businesses under his control grew, Lin Shen felt that employee recruitment needed to become a priority.

That being the case, he might as well just crack a relevant app and let it help with the overall planning.

And so, Lin Shen thought of Boss Direct-Hire.

A moment later, an app icon with the same design but in a deep red color downloaded itself next to the original.

Its name was: Employee Direct-Hire!

’Pretty unique.’

The corners of Lin Shen’s mouth turned up as he tapped to check its effects.
