The matter of the identity cards of She Jinxing and the other good demons has always been a knot in Shang Lin's heart. Now that there is finally a place where this knot can be untied, how can he miss it?
Situ Pojun paused for a moment before saying, "We do have some cooperation with relevant departments in the human world, but I haven't heard of issuing ID cards to good demons. However, my jurisdiction is relatively small, so I'll ask around for you, but you have to promise to work at our office after it's done."
Shang Lin really wanted to ask, "What do you see in me?"
But considering the issue of the ID card, he could only say, "Let's wait for the results of your inquiry."
Situ Pojun picked up his phone and asked Shang Lin, "Leave your phone number so we can stay in touch. Add me on WeChat and QQ as well."
When he needed someone's help, Shang Lin had no choice but to cooperate. However, after all the requests were made, he said rather unkindly, "When I start school, cell phones will be banned at school."
Situ Pojun choked, staring at Shang Lin with his dark eyes for a long while before speaking. "The information in the underworld is very chaotic. You'd better work here; it'll be safer. Otherwise, you won't even know how you died one day."
Shang Lin really wanted to say, "If I die, wouldn't it be perfectly legitimate for you to let me work for you?"
But he didn't have the confidence to speak casually now, so he could only say, "Thanks for the reminder, but I'm a little curious, why is the office located in the form of a private hospital?"
"Ahem." Situ Pojun's eyes darted around a little. "Aren't hospitals the most profitable? Haven't you ever seen how crowded hospitals are in the human world?"
"Okay, I've seen it, but do you have that many medical staff and equipment?" It's more like opening a nursing home, and when the elderly pass away, they can be registered directly without increasing your workload.
However, Shang Lin was only thinking this to herself. What if she said it out loud and it made those who hadn't made any money furious? They were envious of the hospitals in the human world making money, but when it came to her own business, she would probably lose so much that she would turn green with envy.
Speaking of this, Situ Pojun was a little embarrassed. "It's because we can't find suitable living people. The office has only been open for a few years. Where is the money to invest? So it has slowly become like this, neither alive nor dead. If this continues, I'm afraid this office will have to be closed down or merged with other offices."
So you're like this: once you catch a living person, you insist on keeping them, regardless of whether they're an adult or not, right? But thinking about the purpose of her trip, Shang Lin hurriedly said, "Then I'll go first. We'll contact you again if there's any news about the ID card."
"Wait a minute." Seeing Shang Lin stand up to leave as soon as he finished speaking, Situ Pojun hurriedly stopped him, asking, "What are you carrying in your hand?"
Shang Lin then remembered that he had put She Jinxing into the tower, but he had forgotten about the ginseng gift box he was carrying. Could this person want it? He answered somewhat cautiously, "Ginseng."
"Can I take a look?" Seeing that Shang Lin didn't want to show him, Situ Pojun said again, "I'm not forcing you, what are you afraid of?"
Shang Lin spoke frankly, "Of course I'm scared, because this is something I'm prepared to sell to survive; otherwise, I'll starve to death."
"What if I could help you sell it?"
Shang Lin looked at Situ Pojun with a skeptical gaze, "Really?!"
"We'll have to see it to know."
All they wanted to say was that they wanted to see it. But if they wanted to see it, Shang Lin didn't care. He didn't need one anyway. If the other party wanted it, he could just sell it to them, saving him the trouble of selling it himself. As for forcibly taking it, he could just put it in the Dragon Spirit Tower.
It's completely impossible for someone working in the underworld to act with impunity in the human world. Otherwise, how could they run the most profitable hospital yet be so poor that they can't even pay salaries?
Shang Lin took the ginseng gift box out of the bag, opened it, and turned to Situ Pojun, showing no intention of offering it any further.
However, Situ Pojun, who had been sitting since Shang Lin entered, immediately stood up. The man was tall and had long legs, probably over 1.8 meters, and was dressed in all black, giving off an inexplicable sense of oppression.
Although Shang Lin has now successfully escaped the height of an elementary school student, he's only just reached 1.7 meters. He felt a surge of frustration; this damn height difference... in his previous life...
Okay, past lives, past lives.
Situ Pojun stared intently at the ginseng for a long while before asking, "How does this ginseng possess spiritual energy? Since the end of the Dharma in the human world, things with spiritual energy have become extremely rare, and medicinal herbs with spiritual energy are even more scarce. They might still exist in remote mountainous areas, but in cities, they are practically legendary."
Shang Lin nodded, "Yes, I dug it in the mountains. I used to live in a remote mountain village."
"So how much are you planning to sell it for?"
Thinking of the prices that She Jinxing and Hu Tangdi had previously sold it for, Shang Lin replied, "Five hundred thousand."
Situ Pojun was about to say, "So expensive?" but then he thought that the spiritual energy was so abundant, and felt that it was already very cheap.
He then said, "I'll give you 100,000 yuan. Sell me this ginseng. You can also get me as many ID cards as you want, Liang Yao. But I still hope you can come work at our office."
Shang Lin said quite rudely, "We've only just met, how can I trust you? And how can you believe I can handle the job here? I'm just a junior high school graduate, okay?"
Although 100,000 yuan is not much, the ID card is important. I haven't even figured out the way to get it done for so long, let alone how to apply for it. This is at least a chance.
"I can tell from your messy documents that you are definitely capable of handling this. As for the issue of trusting me, we can sign a contract. I have such a large office here, even if I wanted to run away, I couldn't."
This was the first time Shang Lin had ever heard of such "messy" information being used as a basis for doing a job. It was truly unbelievable. He wondered if he himself would be able to review it.
However, the ID card issue is more important right now, so Shang Lin said, "Okay, then I'll sell you the ginseng, but the time for getting the ID card can't be delayed for too long."
"No matter how fast it is, it can't be faster than the time it takes for a living person to get an ID card. I'll try my best."
"good."
Situ Pojun flipped his hand and took out a vermilion pen, and began to write a contract. Shang Lin looked at the pen with great envy, wondering when he could have one too.
But seeing the pained look in Situ Pojun's eyes when he transferred money to him, he knew that this person's situation was the same as his own—he was short of money. It was just that with his physical condition, he really didn't want to come into contact with things that weren't from the mortal world.
However, they could consider in which areas they could cooperate in the future. Oh, right, the bounty orders on Earth!
