Chapter 13 Beg Me
◎Things have changed, now it's your turn to beg me◎
"Well, it's not an accident. The details are still under investigation. I will inform you as soon as I have any news."
After Xu Wen finished speaking, Qin Shu suddenly took out the terminal and took a look at the balance of her star card. The balance was simply horrible.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Qin Shu suddenly stunned while looking at her terminal, Zhou Yin couldn't help but ask.
Qin Shu suddenly put away the terminal after hearing this, looked at Zhou Yin eagerly and asked, "Excuse me, do I get paid?"
Since she turned herself in, she is considered a federal civil servant, right?
Zhou Yin didn't expect that Qin Shu would suddenly ask this. He was a little amused and helpless for a moment. He quickly pointed at Xu Wen with his chin, signaling Qin Shu to ask Xu Wen.
So Qin Shu went to see Xu Wen again with eager eyes.
Xu Wen remained calm. "Of course, we've already prepared your employment contract. However, since you're busy today, I've arranged for the legal team to deliver the contract tonight. If you need it now, I can have them deliver it right away."
"No need to bother, just deliver it tonight. But I want to ask, roughly how much is my salary?"
Xu Wen compared the amount to Qin Shu and said, "To be honest, this amount of money is definitely not as much as what a top star earns in a day. If you think it's too little, we can still discuss it."
It's not that the Interstellar Federation is unwilling to pay Qin Shu a sky-high salary, but because Qin Shu is too special. It took them a lot of time just to draft her employment contract. On the issue of how to treat Qin Shu, they have not yet discussed the exact degree.
In short, everything can be negotiated.
But Qin Shu herself was already very satisfied: "It's already very good treatment, and the amount of money earned depends on your ability. If you gave me a sky-high price right from the start, to be honest, I would also be panicked and afraid that I couldn't bear the expectations."
Qin Shu was not being polite, but she really meant it.
"You're really weird." Zhou Yin couldn't help but laugh at what he said. "If anyone else had your ability, they'd have been cocky and would just ask for a higher price. Why are you still so timid?"
"Because I have always believed that only what I have truly learned and mastered belongs to me. Things like the system only belong to me temporarily. Maybe one day it will suddenly become unusable, just like it also suddenly arrived one day."
"Ms. Qin Shu, you said you were stupid before, but in my opinion, you are actually clear-headed and smart." The more they got along, the higher Xu Wen's evaluation of Qin Shu became.
"But why are you suddenly asking about salary? Is there something that needs money but can't make it?" Zhou Yin didn't like to talk about big principles, she preferred to focus on the present.
"Oh, I just want to buy Lu Yishen a new hover car. By the way... I also have a preliminary idea of what I want to do in the future."
Xu Wen suddenly became interested when he heard this: "What's your idea?"
"I want to open a company, or rather, a base."
"What kind?"
"To provide talents for the Interstellar Federation." Qin Shu answered quickly.
This made Xu Wen and Zhou Yin stunned for a moment, but Qin Shu continued to talk to herself, "Once my achievement points increase, I can summon more heroes to come here, and their stay time should also be extended. Although this is a different world for them, I also hope that while they are here, they will have a place that feels like home. My company does two things: serve them well, and then let them serve the Interstellar Federation well."
"Excuse me... Qin Shu, what major did you study in college?" Zhou Yin was almost stunned by Qin Shu's words. She thought that the Heroic Spirit Summoning System allowed one to command people to do whatever they wanted as long as they were recruited. It was just an employer-employee relationship. To put it bluntly, it was just a transaction. However, Qin Shu, the boss, actually wanted to provide humanistic care to the employees. If she were a Heroic Spirit, she would also be happy to sign a contract with a boss like Qin Shu!
"Resource coordination and management, what's wrong?"
"Well, the major is very suitable." Zhou Yin gave a thumbs up.
Qin Shu was a little confused, but Xu Wen suddenly paused and looked at Qin Shu and said, "Speaking of school, by the way, you took a leave of absence before, right? Your school will start again in half a month. We suggest that you review the content you learned before and prepare to return to school."
"Ah?" Qin Shu had no idea why the topic suddenly turned to her return to school.
"Didn't you gain achievement points today? We speculate that as long as you have a positive influence, you will receive achievement points, but the proportion is difficult to estimate. After all, there are too many and too complicated things about you today. In addition to the positive things like rumor debunking and public relations, your previous charity work and awards have also been exposed. There are too many interference factors, making it difficult for us to make an accurate judgment, so-"
"so?"
"So we need you to take a break for a while, then go back to school and get first place in your major on the exam next month. We'll see how much achievement points you can get from this level of positive impact. We need to establish a rough equation first, which will make it easier to increase achievement points later."
"Number one in your major!" Qin Shu wondered if she had heard it wrong.
God knows, the peak of her cultural level in her entire life was the period before she took the college entrance examination. Since she started college, all the knowledge she had learned before has been returned to her teachers bit by bit. In her two years of college, she has never been in the top ten in her major, and she is even far from the top ten in the class. Later, because she entered the entertainment industry, she somewhat neglected her studies.
During the several times she reincarnated, because she did not hand herself over, she was blacklisted by the entire Internet when she came back. Naturally, she would not go to crowded places like school. Although she was cleansed afterwards and reached the peak of her life, she really never made any achievements in her studies.
Now suddenly she is asked to get the first place in her major, which is too difficult.
"Don't be afraid. There's still a month and a half until your monthly exam. We've found a teacher for you. Just study hard and you'll still have time." Xu Wen said calmly. He had completely forgotten that the people who made this study plan were all top students, and these top students simply didn't understand that a simple task for them would be a challenge for others. So he had no way of empathizing with Qin Shu, who was feeling the pressure.
"What you have learned and mastered is yours. You just said that yourself." Zhou Yin gloated beside him.
Qin Shu suddenly felt that the hot pot in her mouth was no longer fragrant, but after a moment of hesitation, she adjusted her attitude and said, "Okay."
If she doesn't even have the courage to try, then she is not Qin Shu.
"Ring——" At this moment, Qin Shu's terminal suddenly rang. She subconsciously glanced at the name flashing on the screen and suddenly felt a little happy.
"Who is it?"
"My former boss."
"Oh, that boss Guan who was so arrogant this morning?" Zhou Yin suddenly became excited. "He must have seen the reports about you. These bosses are shrewd people. They must have guessed that there's someone behind you. He must be begging you to go back now."
Xu Wen shook his head slightly upon hearing this. "If he were truly shrewd, he wouldn't be so focused on immediate gain and do so many foolish things. I think he knew that he and Xingyao were finished, and seeing the Qin family's downfall, he turned to Qin Shu, the heir-to-be, for help. In short—with his intelligence, he probably couldn't guess that this was related to Qin Shu."
Qin Shu also found it interesting, so she simply accepted the communication request and even turned on the holographic function directly to see face to face what kind of ivory this dog could spit out of his mouth.
Unexpectedly, the first sentence that Mr. Guan said made Qin Shu laugh, because he said -
"Qin Shu, if you have nowhere to go, you can come back to Xingyao. Why did you quit the circle for no reason?"
"No need, Mr. Guan, your temple is too small to accommodate a big Buddha like me." Since Mr. Guan is shameless, what shame does Qin Shu have?
Guan Zizai was choked by Qin Shu's words and was almost speechless for a long time. He paused for several seconds before finding his voice and said with a dry laugh: "Look at what you said. If you are willing to come back, I will have to leave enough space for you even if I have to ask everyone else in this temple to leave."
"Boss Guan, let's not mince words. Tell me, what do you want from me?"
"Please... Look at what you're saying. We're old friends, and I just want to ask you for a favor."
"Oh, you're not begging me, then hang up."
"Wait! Wait!!" Guan Zizai became anxious when he heard Qin Shu was about to hang up. He didn't care about his own face anymore and said hurriedly, "I beg, I beg, isn't it?"
"If you want to ask for help, you have to have the attitude of asking for help."
"What do you want from me?"
"It's simple. Doesn't Mr. Guan like to treat people like dogs? Coincidentally, I also have this interest now. How about this - Mr. Guan, kneel on the ground and bark like a dog twice, and I'll consider helping you. How do you say that?"
"Qin Shu, don't go too far!"
"Oh, since Mr. Guan wants to be a human being and not a dog, then forget it."
"...Wait a minute!" Just when Qin Shu was about to hang up the call, Guan Zizai finally gritted his teeth and called out to Qin Shu.
He never imagined that he had shamelessly told Qin Shu to pay attention to her identity this morning, saying that she was just a dog raised by Xingyao. However, just a few hours later, their positions were completely reversed, and now he was the dog wagging its tail and begging for mercy.
However, he really has no other choice now. Qin Yue, who has been supporting Xingyao behind the scenes, is now in jail, and other cooperating investors have also encountered problems one after another. Negative news about Xingyao continues to be exposed. If many shady things are dug out again, it will not just be bankruptcy for him. He is afraid that he will spend the rest of his life in the deep space prison of the Interstellar Federation.
The most urgent thing is that he needs a new backer to help him stabilize these problems. After the Qin family got into trouble, Qin Shu, the new heir, is his only choice now.
