On August 18th, Situ Pojun called Shang Lin to tell him that Liang Yao's ID card could be processed and asked him, "When can you come? We need to communicate so that we can avoid inconsistencies in our statements and scare ordinary people again."
Shang Lin immediately agreed, "Okay, we'll go whenever you have time."
Situ Pojun thought for a moment, "Come tomorrow morning, I have time during the day."
"good."
Although it was good news that they could finally get an ID card, Shang Lin only took She Jinxing to the private hospital because it was their first time applying for one.
When Situ Pojun came before, he didn't see She Jinxing. This time, when he saw her, he couldn't help but ask Shang Lin, "Didn't you say you were human and a minor? How come you're still associating with demons?"
Shang Lin continued to pretend to be a minor, "Didn't I say before that I live in a remote mountain village? In such a remote place, it's not surprising that I might encounter something, right?"
"Hehe." It's not surprising to encounter something; what's surprising is how you all ended up as a group?
However, Situ Pojun did not pursue the matter further. After Shang Lin left that day, he carefully examined the other party's information, which was truly a jumbled mess, impossible to make sense of, like a tangled mess.
Of course, there are some problems with the Book of Life and Death, since they are still revising it. But there's nothing that can be done about it, since it's already quite an achievement that the Underworld can be reopened.
Shang Lin naturally sensed Situ Pojun's disbelief in his cold laugh, but he didn't explain further and instead asked, "How should we introduce She Jinxing to the outside world?"
“Just say he’s a child from the city’s welfare home, and his identity information is with the welfare home.” After saying that, Situ Pojun handed the printed documents to She Jinxing. “Write them down carefully, so you won’t be unable to answer fluently when you register at the police station.”
She Jinxing's hands seemed to tremble slightly as he received the documents. He was excited that hope was within reach, but he suppressed his excitement and replied with a single word in a very calm manner, "Okay."
Shang Lin pressed on, "When can we go and get it done? Which police station?"
While watching She Jinxing with great interest, Situ Pojun answered Shang Lin's question, "Once he memorizes that information, I'll have someone take you there."
Shang Lin sincerely thanked him, "Thank you. But we have some things to do this afternoon, so it will probably be tomorrow."
"It's alright, we have each other's contact information." Situ Pojun seemed to be in a good mood, and then asked She Jinxing, "Once your ID card is issued, would you be interested in working at our office? We offer five social insurances and one housing fund, and holidays..."
Shang Lin never expected that Situ Pojun would repeat the same recruitment process to She Jinxing. However, this time when it came to salary, he didn't say it would depend on the hospital's monthly revenue. Instead, he said the base salary was 3,000 yuan, plus commission, with more work resulting in more pay.
Wait, it's only been a few days, and you've already turned things around so much? Did the bounty go very smoothly? But you don't need to make it so obvious, do you? I'm a little envious.
But the next second, She Jinxing said politely but distantly, "Thank you very much for your appreciation, but I'm sorry, I have a job and don't want to change jobs."
Shang Lin and Situ Pojun were both taken aback by She Jinxing's words. The former was surprised that the little snake could speak official language, while the latter was surprised that he actually had a job and didn't want to change jobs!
Undeterred, Situ Pojun asked, "Where do you work? I can give you a raise."
It's one thing that Shang Lin couldn't be recruited, after all, he's still a minor on the surface and about to start high school, but then another one rejected him too? Doesn't he have any pride?
She Jinxing replied without changing his expression, "An all-around bodyguard, the salary is very high, so high that I won't switch jobs." Can the resources for cultivation be measured by salary? If so, then they are indeed very, very high.
Situ Pojun's face immediately darkened. He felt that their office was still very poor, so poor that they couldn't even recruit people.
Upon seeing this, Shang Lin hurriedly said, "We're in a hurry, so we'll be going now. Goodbye."
"Goodbye." Situ Pojun said through gritted teeth, clearly unwilling to accept defeat.
Shang Lin and She Jinxing, however, took the elevator downstairs as if they knew the way well. As soon as they entered the elevator, She Jinxing couldn't help but ask, "Is that person really a staff member of the Underworld?! And since I refused him like that, he won't refuse to help me get an ID card, will he?"
"Anyway, he's not a living person." Shang Lin didn't care. "He probably won't. He's already taken ninety-nine steps, what's one more? Besides, you're a demon cultivator, he might need your help in the future."
She Jinxing said, "As long as he's not petty, that's fine."
Shang Lin really couldn't answer this. After all, you can only know a person's face but not their heart, especially since this was only their second meeting. He could only say, "We'll deal with whatever comes our way."
She Jinxing thought to himself, "If that person really is from the Underworld Office, it's best to have less contact with them. When I lived in the human world, I heard a saying, 'The people can't fight with the officials.' Aren't the officials in the Underworld also officials?"
However, She Jinxing believed that Shang Lin knew better than he did, so there was no need to say more. Their sect leader only looked young, but was not actually a minor.
Shang Lin really did have something to do. He went to the processing plant to deliver medicinal herbs with spiritual energy. The first batch of whitening and spot-fading cream had been produced and just shipped to the beauty salon.
The factory manager also asked Shang Lin, "Do you want to take a few bottles back with you? You can use them for the women in your family."
Although men can use it too, neither Shang Lin nor the person beside him had clean faces with any blemishes. They were practically like children, and one wonders what kind of family they came from.
Oh, of course, it's also possible that they used it before, since it was their formula. As for men using cosmetics, it's not surprising; who doesn't want to look good? It's not like they're making a mess of things.
However, Shang Lin directly refused, "We don't need it for now. Let's supply it to Uncle Bai first." None of the women in their family need it.
Besides, Bai Jingxuan handled all the paperwork for the whitening and spot-fading cream. Why should I compete with him for resources? I just hope they can open up the market as soon as possible and increase sales rapidly so I can secretly count my money.
The next day, Shang Lin and She Jinxing went to Situ Pojun's private hospital again. Sure enough, he arranged for someone to take them to apply for ID cards. The whole process went very smoothly, and they were just waiting to pick up their cards.
Looking at the receipt for collecting his ID card in his hand, She Jinxing was so excited that he wanted to reveal his true colors again, but in the end he held back. This really wouldn't do, but he couldn't suppress the smile on his lips.
Shang Lin looked somewhat helpless and a little sad, but said, "Let's go out for a meal tonight to celebrate."
