Top Grade Immortal Emperor in the Flower City-Chapter 756 - 765 It’s Not Easy to Find a Job
In Ye Ling's mansion, he had just brought the Heavenly Emperor and Liu Yunzhi back home, stopped the car, and walked into the living room.
By the time the three of them got home, it was already noon, and everyone was eating. They were all surprised to see Ye Ling returning unannounced.
"Ye Ling? Why did you bring Yun Zhi back with you?"
Liu Qiao'er stood up in shock, prompting Wang Shufen beside her to hurriedly gesture with her hand: "Qiao'er, slow down, you still have one in your belly. Look at you, acting like a child."
By her side, Liu Yunzhi quickly steadied his sister: "Yeah, sis, Auntie is right. Why stand up so fast? If something happens, Dad will kill me."
Liu Qiao'er shook her head: "I'm not that fragile. Sit down and eat first. Is the little girl's problem solved yet?"
The three of them took their seats at the large dining table. Liu Yunzhi nodded eagerly: "Don't worry, sis. Anything in brother-in-law's hands is easily handled."
"So, what are you planning to do with this visit? I mean, now that you've graduated, not being able to further your education aside, you should at least learn a trade, right?"
Liu Qiao'er pointed at her brother, and Wang Shufen also nodded: "Yes, child, you really should learn something. With a skill on hand, you have nothing to fear wherever you go."
The other women smiled and nodded in agreement. Even if Ye Ling's brother-in-law had no particular skills, he wouldn't starve and could be considered wealthy.
However, all these women knew very well that they would never allow their brother to just coast along. The saying that one should rely on oneself is universally true.
"What are you talking about? You make me sound so ignorant. Sis, didn't you hear? Just because someone isn't good at studying doesn't mean they'll be poor all their life."
Liu Yunzhi hurriedly defended himself: "Plus, the reason I came this time is to work. Don't worry, I will definitely earn my pay through my own efforts!"
"Okay, work hard. There's no rush to make money. You're still young. At the very least, learn some social experience and skills. Once you mature, I'll let your brother-in-law invest in you, hehe."
After speaking, Liu Qiao'er playfully stuck out her tongue, prompting the other women to burst into laughter.
Ye Ling nodded: "Alright, let's eat. Let Yun Zhi make his own decisions. But no matter what, it's true that he shouldn't be led astray."
The table focused on their meal, and after eating, the group of women went shopping, while Wang Shufen and Ye Tian took a few children to play in the garden.
These kids were not like other children; not to mention anything else, their energy levels were astonishingly high.
Normally, children would nap at noon, but these little guys, who acted like live wires, were boisterous all day long, making loud noises without resting at midday. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
Of course, although they slept early at night, the two grandparents were concerned. Haven't experts said that it is unhealthy for children who don't rest enough?
However, after a trip to the hospital for a check-up, it turned out they were frighteningly healthy. To borrow the words of the doctor, they were robust.
Inside the living room, Ye Ling sat on the couch, chatting with Liu Yunzhi for a while. This guy insisted on finding a job on his own, eager to make his own way.
What else could be done but support him? After all, Ye Ling was in a supportive mood—men shouldn't always be cooped up at home, after all.
That very afternoon, Liu Yunzhi set out, scouring the streets for a job, only to return that evening with his head down, looking dejected as he re-entered the mansion.
You wouldn't know until you ask, and when you do, it can be quite alarming. I have no idea if this guy went crazy today or what, but he went straight for eighteen jobs. And of course,, the outcome was pretty tragic.
Liu Yunzhi, who had just graduated from high school, was not strictly managed by Liu Yuandong and Zhang Yuhua as they were quite busy, and being uneducated themselves, they didn't really have any methods of management.
That's why Liu Yunzhi didn't get into college, with a score less than two hundred. Of course,, if he relied on Ye Ling's influence, getting into a decent university wouldn't have been an issue. The key thing was that, despite poor academic performance, he had ambition.
He insisted on making his own way in the world, so today, he had solid reasons for all eighteen rejections.
"Sorry, your diploma isn't suitable. Even our minimum educational requirement for waitstaff is a master's degree, thank you. And it has to be in a relevant field."
"Damn it, even waitstaff need specialized master's degrees now?" When Liu Yunzhi heard this, he almost flew off the handle.
"Sorry, your social experience isn't quite suitable. After all, our business is quite busy and specialized, so it might not be the right fit for you."
Liu Yunzhi didn't take too much issue with this company's rejection. A locksmith company, huh? With his skills, he'd be no more than a brute force locksmith, certainly no match for their craftsmen.
"Sorry, we're hiring a secretary, and we only want female applicants. What? You're asking if a man could do it? Are you here to wreck our place? What do you think!"
"Sorry, you're too tall. In our company, no employee can be taller than our manager. Thank you."
"Sorry, we do not welcome rural household registrations..."
"Sorry, you meet all our requirements except one. Our boss specifically instructed that we must hire someone who is a Scorpio."
"Why? Because Wang Daxian at Hudongkou said Scorpios are particularly compatible with our boss."
After these repeated blows, Liu Yunzhi nearly lost all hope. What a vast and bizarre world it is. Even a big guy standing five feet three couldn't find a job. Sigh, truly frustrating.
When Ye Ling found out, he patted Liu Yunzhi's shoulder without saying much. These experiences were the best kind of toughening for him and made him realize just how difficult life can be.
The very next day, the guy was full of energy again and went out. And it turned out pretty well this time; he found a job at a bar as a waiter.
Yes, such a job can be a great learning experience. That's what Ye Ling thought when he found out.
A bar, with its mix of good and bad people, is where one can train in all aspects of life. As for Ye Ling's initial idea of getting him a position at Mu Ninghan's bar, he refused, insisting on finding one by himself.
Time slowly passed, and in the blink of an eye, half a month was gone. Ye Ling had been busy too, continuing his morning runs, grocery shopping, cooking, and spending time with kids, wife, and parents—his schedule was packed.
And indeed, his state of mind was much stronger than before, more well-rounded. He had reined in his past sharpness, yet his charm had deepened.
During this time, Ye Fei went to the Shaolin Temple. He wanted to visit Shi Wujian at the temple, and naturally, Ye Ling agreed to his request.
He had Li Tianhao and Ao Hongchen accompany him for a trip to the Shaolin Temple, and it was also a chance for Li Tianhao to return to his own school.
As for the other guys, they were all busy with their own things, until one day, Shenfeng suddenly rushed over in a state of urgency.
