Chapter 3 Losing Your Job
“I want a wheat-flavored sandwich with a cup of nutritious milk.”
A tall white-collar beauty stretched out her slender finger and pointed to the menu on the tabletop, handed the Jinka to Yan Feng with a smile, staring at Yan Feng's handsome face.
"Two hundred and thirty yuan," Yan Feng skillfully placed the plate with a wheat-flavored sandwich and a cup of nutritious milk in front of the young beauty, "Thank you for your patronage."
The white-collar beauty was disappointed when she saw no response.
"Have you heard it? The Kexun Building was stolen last night, and the confidential documents of the Kexun Group were stolen." A small young man leaning against the ordering table said to the flat-headed young man with a size larger body opposite.
The flat-headed young man smashed the frozen Coke on the table, and his voice was a bit loud: "How could I not know? It was all on the headlines of China Newspaper. When I passed by the Kexun Building just now, the armed forces were shocked. They surrounded the Kexun Square twice, and even cockroaches couldn't squeeze in! There was also internal news that was not for external rumor..."
The little young man was attracted by interest and asked, "What internal news?"
The flat-headed young man picked his eyes and smiled: "The stolen information this time is related to the upcoming online game "Eden", and the thief is just one person!"
"No way? That 'high-tech prison' dared to go alone, and successfully escape? Who is so evil?" The little young man looked disbelief.
The young man with flat head disagreed: "China has a vast land and a wealth of materials, and there are many people who hide and hide dragons and crouch. The Kexun Building has only a few hundred armed forces, and the 361st floor covers an area of nearly 5,000 square meters. It is not so easy to do so without leaking water? However, the data from "Eden" was stolen, and Kexun suffered a lot this time."
The young man asked curiously: "Don't Kexun do online communication and global wi-fi? When did he get involved in online games?"
The flat-headed young man smiled and said mysteriously: "It seems that you don't usually visit Times. Since the "Eden" plan was announced three years ago, Times has mentioned this game almost every week. Let me tell you, "Eden" was jointly designed by the world's four major online game giants and the Internet agent "Milo" and is not only far more than any previous live online game, but also passed the full recognition of the United Nations medical institutions. It has sleep and recuperation functions, which can relieve social pressure on a large scale. It has received support and cooperation from governments of more than 100 countries."
"I know that "Eden" is very famous. When it is about to open next month, I will queue up to buy the latest game equipment overnight. I didn't expect it to be so powerful. I hope I can make a name this time!" The young man was so excited that he danced with joy.
The flat-headed young man looked contemptuous: "Dainiao, this game is full of business opportunities, far from comparable to the international online game "Divine Realm". The advertising costs consumed just are nearly 10 billion yuan. Even Kexun is willing to take the risk and spend huge amounts of money to invest in. It is estimated that those online game studios and professional guilds have long been eyeing them. Casual players like us, it would be good if they can not go in and be at the bottom. They still want to make a name for themselves, dreaming..."
Yan Feng didn't care about the theft they talked about, but "Eden" touched him a lot. Yan Feng was once addicted to a realistic online game with real touch, with strong expectations for "Eden", and even made detailed plans. Before his parents had an accident, he led the guild he formed - Ragnarok, which was a team of 63 powerful players. He was as famous as the first guild "Eternal Empire" in the international large-scale online game "Divine Realm". "Xue Huang", the president of "Eternal Empire", once commented on the guild formed by Yan Feng: "They may not be the most professional players, because of this, they have first-class technology!"
After all, it is not a professional guild. Most of the guild members have a wealthy family and have joined the "Ragain" for technology and entertainment. After Yanfeng disappeared two years ago, "Ragain" gradually declined.
"I don't know how Tianhao and Yueru and others are..."
All kinds of past events emerged in my mind, and Yan Feng couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Those nostalgia have now been replaced by hatred.
"Yan Feng, Yan Feng..." A crisp sound interrupted Yan Feng's thoughts. The young girl in front of the stage was wearing a goose yellow down jacket, a round oval face with a pair of shy dimples, her cheeks were flushed, and her whole body exuded a youthful and lovely atmosphere.
Yan Feng came to his senses and showed a rare smile on his face: "It's so early today!"
Yan Feng has worked in this restaurant for nearly a year and has suffered a lot of cold eyes and blows. He has become accustomed to the lives of lower-class workers, but the girl in front of him gives him a feeling of sunshine and warmth.
"Good morning!" A shy smile appeared on the girl's face.
"Brother Yanfeng!" The little boy next to the girl stood on tiptoe, climbed onto the edge of the front desk with his hands, and shouted at Yanfeng with tender voice.
Yan Feng lit up with a smile, delivered a nutritional package to the girl, then added another cheese egg tart and said, "Bibi is very energetic today. Brother, please treat you to egg tart."
"Thank you, Brother Yanfeng."
The waitress next to her joked: "Bibi just remembers Brother Yanfeng?"
"Hello aunt!"
Although the little boy's voice is sweet, it sounds unnatural. The waitress pretends to be angry: "Don't call him aunt, you should call me sister!"
"I already have sisters, Brother Yanfeng and Sister Xiaomin," the little boy nodded seriously, "Mom said, be polite when you appear outside, and call 'Auntie' when you see a beautiful big sister."
The waitress was a little amused and cried. She reached out to touch the little boy's head with a few slight and heavy strokes, and cursed with a smile: "Little Gu Ling Jing, there is nothing to do with you!"
At this time, an old man stood behind Xiaomin. She was embarrassed to chat with Yan Feng again and walked towards the inner hall with a plate.
"Hello, what do you need to order?" Yan Feng asked.
“Give me a egg mare and double crust cheese.”
Yan Feng was turning around and preparing to go when suddenly Xiaomin screamed from the inner hall: "Ah!"
Then the sound of the dining plate falling to the ground sounded. Yan Feng frowned slightly and said to the waitress next to him: "Here I take care of you, I'll go and have a look."
"Do you know how expensive this suit is!" A middle-aged man with a slightly fat body grasped Xiaomin's slender hands with his thick palms.
Xiaomin bowed his head and apologized: "I'm sorry... I'm sorry, I'll help you clean it right away. Can you let me go first..."
The middle-aged man was a little angry and said in a swearing and shouting: "Dry cleaning? Can this blue plum juice be washed clean? I am going to attend the senior meeting soon. What should you do if you ask me?"
"What's going on?" Yan Feng walked over quickly.
Xiaomin said in a weak voice: "I just passed here, and this gentleman suddenly stood up..."
Seeing the situation in front of him clearly, Yan Feng had guessed what happened and reached out to grab the thick arm of the middle-aged man without hesitation:
"Can you let go of your hands first?"
Seeing Yan Feng rude, the middle-aged man became even more angry and shouted loudly: "There is nothing to do with you here, go there!"
Yan Feng didn't say anything, the sharpness in his eyes was undoubtedly revealed, and he exerted a little force in his hand. The angry expression of the middle-aged man gradually turned into pain. He had to let go of Xiaomin's slender hand and shouted in shock and anger: "Let go... Let go..."
Yan Feng swung casually, and the middle-aged man's bulky body fell on his chair. At this time, the manager of the restaurant came over and shouted at Yan Feng: "Why are you treating customers like this?"
"Go to the rest room!" The manager glared at Yan Feng, turned around and apologized to the middle-aged man, "Sir, I'm so sorry, this unpleasant thing happened in our store..."
Yan Feng glanced at Xiaomin, and when she saw her expression calm down, he nodded slightly and turned around and walked into the rest room.
"It seems that this job has come to an end..." Recalling the manager's expression just now, Yan Feng sighed softly.
He was born rich, serious, and was not good at service jobs. However, in this era of highly developed technology, basic labor was gradually replaced by artificial intelligence, and social employment imbalance has deteriorated for more than 20 years. College culture has become the lowest educational requirement. There are very few young people like Yanfeng who have not graduated from college. It is not easy to find a suitable job? Without the hard bricks of university education, they are restrained everywhere and are considered inferior to others.
Unexpectedly, he was shaved and then fired. Yan Feng received more than half a month's salary from the Finance Department and a letter of recommendation that was useless. Back at his residence of 20 square meters, Yan Feng threw the letter of recommendation on the table.
Looking for a job is a headache for Yan Feng, but he can't do anything about it. Although he has two ancient martial arts, the tasks of the Mingyan organization are not only not responsible for the necessary materials, but also cannot expose the identity of the ancient martial artist. In this sense, he is no different from ordinary people, and it is even more difficult for ordinary people to make a living because of his education.
No matter how difficult life is, you will never steal property. Doing tasks and stealing for your livelihood are different things. If you are willing to starve to death, you will never steal a penny! His arrogance that is tenacious enough to the bone has not changed at all even if he is in a downturn now.
When he started the computer, Yan Feng did not check the work information immediately, but browsed the reports about the "Yang Group". A report jumped into his eyes, and a huge whirlpool broke out in his mind like a bomb - "Yang Group locked in "Eden" and formed a professional guild 'Energy Man'."
"Don't the senior executives stop this kind of behavior of ignoring the company's regulations?"
Yang's Group has always focused on the energy field. Whether it is undersea combustible ice, nuclear energy, hydrogen energy, biomass energy, or natural energy such as solar energy, wind energy, marine energy, geothermal energy, etc., Yang's Group has world-class technology and scale, and it only comes with energy-related industrial chains. Online game investments like this can be said to be unprecedented.
"The group invested in "Eden" and formed a professional guild. Jinhui Group also invested heavily in the beginning of the development of "Eden". Is there any inside story about this online game? Sleep and recuperation function, support from governments in various countries, Eden..." Yan Feng frowned, wanting to capture something special from this information.
Two years ago, due to the forces inside and outside the Yang Group and the "agreement" with Old Man Yan, Yan Feng has always hidden his identity. The Yang Group is now under the power of Yang Zhenhua's half-brother Yang Xinghua. When Yan Feng was rescued by Old Man Yan, he could only be considered "missing" before his death was confirmed. The inheritance of his parents has never been inherited. According to the law, the disappearance period must expire for four years before Yang Xinghua can obtain the inheritance as the second heir. Although Yan Feng is not concerned about the cause of the Yang Group, this is something left by his parents after all, and it cannot fall into the hands of others no matter what. He was isolated and helpless at the time, once his identity was exposed, he might die without a place to bury him. Now he has a certain amount of strength and finally sees a glimmer of hope.
In the next two weeks, Yan Feng found seven or eight jobs one after another, preparing for an interview almost every two days, but unfortunately he was rejected by various reasons. Although it was difficult to find a job, Yan Feng did not dare to relax his cultivation at all. Maybe one day, Old Man Yan, who was sentenced to death by Yan Feng, gave him an extremely dangerous task. In order to get rid of the constraints of the task as soon as possible, Yan Feng never missed the opportunity to fight with Old Man Yan every two months. Although the strength gap was huge, even if he was suppressed every time, he still tried his best to improve himself.
"It's time to get to Old Man Yan to get through."
