The next morning, Zhan Lingfeng and Hong Caixian went to the factory together, while Wu Yong reluctantly went for an interview at another location.
On the way, seeing Hong Caixian's worried expression, Zhan Gang smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's all settled. There won't be any issues with Wu Yong; he will definitely get the job."
"Thank you so much. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't know what to do," Hong Caixian said gratefully as she looked at Zhan Gang.
"It's nothing much. I'm just more familiar with this place and have a few acquaintances. Your job this time is testing, which is quite easy."
Hong Caixian expressed her gratitude once again.
However, Zhan Lingfeng felt a sense of superiority as he looked down from a higher perspective. He could see through Zhan Gang's feelings for Hong Caixian, but unfortunately, the couple remained oblivious.
Shaking his head, Zhan Lingfeng chose not to concern himself with such trivial matters. For him, being here was a form of experience. He understood that his evaluation would be based on criteria he didn't fully comprehend; he only knew that it likely depended on his development within the factory. The straightforward approach was to establish a foothold and gradually advance from the lower levels.
For now, Zhan Lingfeng had no way to change this situation. One thing was certain: anything involving True Essence could not be used; Inner Qi was permissible.
He inquired about Artifact Spirit and also consulted Shen Yuanzi separately. According to Shen Yuanzi, as long as it wasn't an action involving True Essence, Mundane methods could be employed.
With that in mind, given his current Grandmaster Realm cultivation, he felt quite formidable.
Regardless, it seemed that if he could avoid using power during evaluations, his score might be higher.
Zhan Lingfeng resolved that unless absolutely necessary, he would refrain from using his powers.
He also asked about the defensive talismans; Shen Yuanzi confirmed once again that talismans existed in the Secular world. As long as he didn't use True Essence himself, any peculiarities in the automatic defense of the talisman would not be attributed to him. In other words, wearing a talisman would protect him from bullets without counting as using special means since wealthy individuals also possessed talismans.
With this knowledge, Zhan Lingfeng felt even more at ease; as long as he wore his Jade Talisman, no one could harm him.
While contemplating these matters, they had already entered the factory.
This is a factory in this Zone, not small in scale, with a large number of workers inside. Looking around, most of them are female workers, with very few men.
"Xu, did you see that? There are beauties everywhere here. If you work hard, you can find a few beauties for yourself," Zhan Gang said with a smile to Zhan Gang.
"Gang Ge, how many have you found? I haven't seen you looking," Zhan Lingfeng also asked with a smile.
Hearing this, Zhan Gang darkened his expression and said, "Although I have a few acquaintances here, it's tough. Money is tight, and nowadays women are very materialistic. Without money, who would pay attention to you? So, you need to find a way to make money. As long as you have money, you'll be the big shot here."
Hong Caixian said, "Gangzi, you can even help us find jobs here. How come you still don't have money?"
"Haha, my expenses are not small either."
While they were talking, everyone arrived at the Human Resources office. The two of them entered inside. Zhan Gang looked at a chubby middle-aged man sitting there and said, "Cai Zong, these two are our fellow villagers from Countryside."
Cai Zong looked the two of them over and especially smiled when he looked at Hong Caixian. He said, "Hmm, you're Hong Caixian, right? I'll have someone arrange it for you; you'll start today. Work hard."
Hong Caixian quickly thanked him.
He then looked at Zhan Lingfeng and smiled, "You look spirited. Alright, go to the Human Resources Office. What I say doesn't count; those ladies need to interview you first."
Zhan Gang smiled at Zhan Lingfeng and said, "The women in the Human Resources Office handle moving things and such. They've been saying they need a young person for a while now, so I recommended you to Cai Zong."
"Thank you, Cai Zong."
Cai Zong smiled and said, "I'll have someone take you there. Actually, I'll take you myself to avoid them saying I don't take it seriously. Hehe."
As Cai Zong walked towards the Human Resources Office, he didn't say much. Soon, they arrived at a large office that resembled a big conference room.
Looking around, it was filled with women—more than ten of them.
So many!
Zhan Lingfeng was somewhat surprised.
"Director Jiang, I have found the person you wanted. Come and check the goods."
At that moment, a charming young woman stood up, smiling as she looked at Zhan Lingfeng.
"Director Cai, it took so long to find someone!"
"There was no choice; your requirements were too high. You wanted someone young and handsome, yet strong. It was hard to find. By the way, Zhan Lingfeng, we haven't tested your strength yet. The Human Resources Office needs people to move things; you can't be weak. Do you see those boxes over there? Go lift one and see."
Zhan Lingfeng walked over and effortlessly lifted a heavy box with one hand.
Immediately, the women looked at Zhan Lingfeng with different expressions, gasping in amazement.
"Wow, he's so strong!"
"A muscular man, I like that."
"He seems very powerful!"
Everyone was discussing among themselves, and Zhan Lingfeng's expression changed slightly as he wondered what kind of place he had come to.
Director Jiang also showed a look of surprise and said, "He really is strong. Director Cai, you put in a lot of effort this time."
Director Cai was pleased with Zhan Lingfeng's performance and laughed heartily, "When have I not put in effort for Director Jiang?"
Patting Zhan Lingfeng on the shoulder, Director Cai said, "You can call me Cai Heshan from now on. If you need anything, just come to me."
"Thank you, Director Cai."
After seeing Director Cai leave, Director Jiang walked up to Zhan Lingfeng and looked him up and down before asking, "Can you read?"
"Nice to meet you."
"Oh, you have some culture! Where are you from?"
Zhan Lingfeng shared his current situation.
The women listened and showed sympathetic expressions.
"How did you go to school?"
"I only went to school for a short time because I couldn't afford it anymore. However, I self-studied a lot of knowledge and practiced writing on the ground."
"Can you drive?"
"Yes, I learned from others, but I don't have a license."
"My name is Jiang Lingyu, and I am the director here. Now let me introduce you to everyone."
Jiang Lingyu began introducing the people in the office one by one.
Perhaps because they heard about Zhan Lingfeng's unfortunate background, everyone seemed much more polite in their dealings with him.
