Chapter 76: Recruiting: The Careless Guan Qianshan

Crescent Island, located in a rather unique position, lies in the middle of a vast lake that forms a semi-circle on the coast of Jianghai Province before flowing into the East Sea. This lake, known as West Lake Hong, is so large that it resembles an inland sea within the province.

West Lake Hong's immense size is due to its proximity to the East Sea, and it is one of the reasons why Linzhou and Jianghai Province boast a thriving population of aquatic companion beasts.

This vast lake is dotted with countless small islands, each offering abundant aquatic companion beast resources and numerous development opportunities.

Crescent Island is undoubtedly one of these islands.

Resembling a crescent moon, this small island floats on the expansive lake, and in its center stands a lone figure.

Gazing at the distant construction workers, he sighs.

It is none other than Guan Qianshan, who has been here for half a month.

Compared to Cloud Heaven Resort, this place is like heaven and earth apart.

Life on Crescent Island is far from convenient, and even though he is only separated from his family by West Lake Hong and a stretch of Spirit Stream River, the difference feels like worlds apart.

Guan Qianshan notices some peculiar glances from others, and he has overheard these junior managers whispering about him:

"They say he made a mistake at headquarters and was directly sent to this godforsaken place."

"Really? No wonder he looks so glum."

"Yes, and apparently, it was a direct order from the top!"

"The highest-level order? That must be from the Chairman himself!"

"Well, it seems like this Guan guy is stuck here until retirement."

"Hehe, not necessarily. Maybe he'll find a better opportunity..."

"It's not that easy. He was sent here, but he's still getting paid. Why wouldn't he want to get a better companion beast for his kid and make a better living?"

"Sigh... It's not easy for anyone."

Guan Qianshan sighs, but deep down, he knows he doesn't regret his decision. He has done his best for Su Ping and his family.

As for devising some underhanded schemes, like restricting Su's family's finances and forcing them to give up their land deed to survive, he knows he couldn't bring himself to do such a thing.

When Su Anyong left, he even asked Guan Qianshan to look after his son, who was left alone at home.

Thinking of this, Guan Qianshan starts to worry about Su Ping.

He doesn't know why the Chairman and Tianyun Group are so eager to buy Su's land deed, but there must be a reason.

He wonders if his group has succeeded in their plan.

Just then, the phone rings, causing Guan Qianshan to pause.

He looks down at the call, and it's from Su Ping!

"Hello, Su Ping?" Guan Qianshan asks in surprise, fearing something might have happened.

But the boy's voice on the other end of the line surprises this seasoned corporate warrior, leaving him stunned:

"Uncle Guan, I know you're not happy at Tianyun Group. Why don't you come to Heartwood Cultivation Base and work with me?"

The boy's energetic voice exudes confidence and enthusiasm over the phone.

The moment he arrived, Guan Manager felt a sense of bewilderment.

Half a month ago, he was the manager of the neighboring department, representing Tianyun Group. Now, he had returned, but this time as the so-called 'manager' of Heart of Wood.

Although Tianyun Group had transferred him here, his salary, benefits, and compensation remained untouched.

Today, with just a word from Su Ping, he had resigned and come to this place. Even Guan himself felt a bit crazy.

"Uncle Guan, what was your salary at Tianyun Group?"

"Excluding bonuses, it was around 30,000 yuan per month."

"Then your monthly salary here will be 60,000 yuan, along with some additional benefits. I'll explain the details to you later."

Su Ping waved his hand generously.

Guan Manager breathed a sigh of relief. Although he trusted Su Ping, people still needed to eat, and at his age, he had a family to support.

However, as he exhaled, Guan Manager also asked curiously, "Su Ping, what do I need to do?"

This breeding base was different from the training ground at the resort next door.

The resort was bustling with people, offering accommodations and dining services.

Not to mention the various complex tasks involving companion beast battles.

Here, he couldn't figure out what his role was supposed to be.

Su Ping looked at Guan Qianshan solemnly and said, "Uncle Guan, Heart of Wood will become the largest breeding base and ecological square in Linzhou. I don't know many people in Linzhou, and you're the only one I can trust! That's why I want you to be the manager!"

Guan Qianshan nodded in agreement, a true friend in times of need.

After all, Su Ping had rescued him from that godforsaken place and was willing to offer such a high salary. It was a gesture of utmost kindness.

The trust he now felt from Su Ping deeply moved Guan.

But Su Ping hadn't answered his question yet.

What exactly did the manager of Heart of Wood do?

Su Ping continued, facing Guan's bewildered gaze, "As the manager, you'll naturally need to oversee the entire operation. You should understand every detail of our business operations and have a grasp of each position."

As Su Ping spoke, Guan felt a sense of foreboding.

"Of course, for now, we don't have that many business operations. We just have more customers coming to cultivate their companion beasts. You'll need to handle the reception!"

Receptionist? Guan exhaled in relief.

"No problem!" Guan patted his chest confidently.

"Also, I want to expand the area around Heart of Wood, excluding the original land deed position of my family. Can you think of a way?"

"Huh? Some of the shops already have owners, and some of the land hasn't been developed yet. I'll need to communicate with the officials about this. But I'm good at this, so there won't be any issues. I'll talk to them one by one."

"There's also the architectural planning. Uncle Guan, I plan to..."

Two hours later, after listening to Su Ping's entire blueprint, Guan, who was now also a security guard, doorkeeper, receptionist, public relations officer, site supervisor, accountant, procurement officer, landscape designer, chef, and more, had only one thought:

Damn, I've made a huge mistake.
