The male immortal, however, smiled solemnly and cupped his hands in greeting to Wang Yao.
"Um... I still have some trivial matters to attend to. I will go to the Heavenly Court after I finish them. So... I won't trouble you two any further..." Upon hearing what the male immortal surnamed Fan said, Wang Yao understood that these two were similar to Hu Fei and Luan Chu from before, and were the guiding immortals who came to lead him to work in the Heavenly Court.
He hasn't been able to contact Hui Shuo yet, and he doesn't know where Qing He is. Most importantly, returning to the system doesn't appeal to him at all, so he subconsciously wants to make excuses.
"Oh dear, we were specifically instructed before we left that although the Old Man of the Moon likes to linger in the mountains and fields, the work of the Women's Federation cannot wait for a moment. So please come back to the Heavenly Court with us to take up your new post. After the work of the Women's Federation is started, it is not too late to do those trivial matters."
The fairy's face instantly changed to an anxious expression as she hurriedly tried to persuade Wang Yao.
"Wh...what...what did you say? What Women's Federation?" Wang Yao asked, blinking.
"The Six Realms Women's Federation? Isn't that just called the Women's Federation for short?" The fairy looked at Wang Yao with an innocent expression.
"You...you mean, the Heavenly Court wants me to work at that Women's Federation?" Wang Yao asked uncertainly again.
"Yes, the Heavenly Court believes that Lord Yue Lao is the most suitable person to be in charge of marriage in the Six Realms. Although there are some minor opinions within the system about Lord Yue Lao taking on the leadership of the Women's Federation, gender equality should not only apply to female immortals, right? Male immortals should also be treated equally."
"Just because it's the Women's Federation doesn't mean we shouldn't give male immortals any opportunities, does it? Appointing the Old Man of the Moon as the director of the Six Realms Women's Federation precisely demonstrates the Heavenly Court's organizational principle of treating male and female immortals equally and appointing only the virtuous," the fairy explained softly to Wang Yao.
"Whoever wants to do this can do it. I've already advanced to the Great Ascension stage, why would I want to be the director of the Women's Federation? Isn't that just bullshit?" Wang Yao shook his head repeatedly upon hearing this. He was clearly a grown man, yet he wanted to be the director of the Women's Federation. It would be a laughing stock.
"So what if she's the head of the Women's Federation? That's a ministerial-level leadership position in Heaven! Which immortal in Heaven, on the verge of reaching the Mahayana stage, wouldn't covet it? It's just that the Moon Goddess already has important responsibilities, and the Hehe Immortals' cultivation level is a bit too low..."
"Lord Yue Lao, do you know that this position is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you? If you don't seize it this time, you'll never have another chance..." A male immortal surnamed Fan interjected, trying to persuade him.
"Um...ministerial level?" Wang Yao blinked. "Isn't that a bit higher than bureau level?"
"Of course. The bureau level is the deputy ministerial level, and then the ministerial level. The Heavenly Court has a rule that only Mahayana powerhouses can hold ministerial positions. But there are many Mahayana powerhouses in the Heavenly Court, so how many ministerial positions are there? That is the ultimate pursuit of all immortals within the system."
Fan Xian widened his eyes and explained to Wang Yao.
"Then...this...doesn't that mean my position is even higher than that of Lü Dongbin, the immortal Lü?" Wang Yao scratched the back of his head and looked at the two of them in astonishment.
"Of course it's higher. Lu Xian is just the director of the Heavenly Court's office in the human world, a full-fledged bureau-level official, two levels below you... Oh... I understand now, the Old Man of the Moon used to work at the Heavenly Court's office in the human world..." Fan Xian said, a look of sudden realization appearing on his face.
"Hehe, as long as you become the director of the Sixth Women's Federation, every time Lü Xian sees you, she'll at least have to bow to you and respectfully call you 'leader' twice." Fan Xian said with a wicked smile on his face.
"I see..." Wang Yao stroked his chin, thinking to himself that it would be quite enjoyable to see the serious-looking Lü Xian bowing and scraping to him.
"How much is my monthly salary as a leader at this level?" Wang Yao thought for a moment and then asked.
He now plans to open the shop with Qinghe, but the capital is a big problem. Although Qinghe should have saved a lot of money over the years, as a grown man, he can't just ask Qinghe to pay for the shop while he just sits there and lives off her.
Moreover, having left without saying goodbye for many years, it wouldn't look good to ask someone for money the moment we meet. If a ministerial-level leader's salary is high enough, he might as well work for two years and save up some capital to open a shop, so that he won't lack confidence when discussing opening a shop with Qinghe in the future.
"A ministerial-level leader's monthly salary should be 10,000 Heavenly Coins," the fairy replied from the side.
"How much?" Wang Yao almost thought he had misheard. He was paid 5,000 Heavenly Court Coins as soon as he joined the company. This was after skipping countless thresholds such as deputy section chief, section chief, deputy department chief, department chief, deputy bureau chief, bureau chief, and deputy ministerial chief, and in the end, his salary only doubled?
If you convert it to Huadu currency at a 1:10 ratio, you'd only get 1000 yuan a month as a ministerial-level leader in the Heavenly Court? How many years would it take to save up enough capital to open a shop?
"After deducting 20% for social insurance and housing fund, right?" Wang Yao smiled at the two men, but he was already extremely impatient. They think they can make me risk my life for such a small amount of money? I've never been an official before, I'm just here to have my fun.
"Five social insurances and one housing fund? Brother Li, do ministerial-level leaders in the Heavenly Court pay for five social insurances and one housing fund?" The fairy looked at the male immortal blankly.
"I'm not quite sure, but this 10,000 Heavenly Court Coins shouldn't include social insurance and housing fund contributions. This is all I'll get. It's a bit little, but Lord Yue Lao is a ministerial-level leader in Heaven. His ways of making money are far more than just this fixed salary," Fan Xian turned to Wang Yao and asked with a smile.
"Oh? If not a salary, then what?" Wang Yao had breathed a slight sigh of relief when he heard that the 10,000 Heavenly Court Coins would not be deducted from social insurance and housing fund, but then he thought that even without deductions, it would still only be 1,000 RMB a month in Flower Coins, which was still pitifully little.
