With the topic brought to this point, it was hard for Luo Chu to say anything else.
Human beings are born with selfish motives.
If anyone and any job wants to have long-term motivation, they must talk about rewards, gains, and the ratio of effort to gain.
Always thinking about talking about feelings is definitely a hooliganism.
Luo Chu’s motivation for working in this industry has always been his uncompromising efforts and his enthusiasm has not diminished but increased. It is indeed feelings and personal grievances.
But he also understands that he can talk about his feelings, but he cannot ask others to talk about their feelings.
But how easy is it to solve this problem?
At least it's not something that his little operations director can do.
An operations director is involved in specific businesses. If he really wants to be promoted and make a fortune, he can at most just be a minor official and make a small fortune.
Let alone the director of operations, even the first officer of the Star City Operations Bureau cannot promise a high-ranking official with generous salary, glory and wealth.
Look at Master Liu, if he hadn't been unlucky enough to meet Jiang Yue, someone like him could have prospered.
Jiang Yue, probably intending to provoke Luo Chu, suddenly asked with a smile: "Luo Chu, do you know what conditions Master Liu, the magic stick, made in order to survive before he died?"
“What? I’m just trying to persuade you to join him, right? To join him? Money? Power? Glory and wealth?”
“That’s pretty much what it means. How much do you think he paid for his life?”
“How much? One hundred million? Three hundred million?”
“Take a bold guess.”
“Is it 500 million?” Luo Chu was surprised.
"One billion!" Jiang Yue chuckled, "This is the first price he has offered. If I really agree to let him go, I estimate he can get two billion. Can you imagine?"
“How can a charlatan be so rich?”
Luo Chu was stunned and felt frustrated by this number for a while.
He is also the director of the Operations Division. He usually does not deliberately make money. He is not greedy or embezzlement, so he relies on salary and bonuses. Now if he is asked to personally come up with one million, he can get three to five million, then
That's enough.
One billion?
For him, it is absolutely an astronomical figure!
Even if he has the authority within the Action Bureau, if he wants to apply for funds, tens of millions is already a scary amount, and he still needs various approvals.
Compared with Master Liu, Luo Chu found that he was really shabby.
His frustration was not because of his monetary income. He was thinking that with such a huge income gap, it was no wonder why capable and strong foreigners were unwilling to join them.
He was even thinking, even if the Action Bureau could open an opening to recruit new members from the entire society, how many would it be able to recruit, and would all those recruited be able to work hard without complaint?
At this moment, he really had no confidence.
In a normal society, in peaceful times, an iron rice bowl like the Action Bureau with high authority, high status, and fairly low income would have both face and dignity, and would definitely be the best choice for employment. How many people would struggle to squeeze in?
Go in.
But now?
Putting aside the risks of this job, the effort and rewards do seem a bit shabby in comparison.
"Luo Chu, don't be discouraged. This is a normal human decision, and it cannot be changed by you or me alone. But we should still have hope. As generations of young people grow up, after all, most people still have good intentions.
In the future, these problems will be solved one after another, and I believe that more and more capable people will join us. I have no doubt about this."
“Including you?”
“Whether I join or not, when did you need me, I didn’t show up?” Jiang Yue asked.
Luo Chu laughed: "Yes, yes! People who are truly capable can make money without delaying their achievements. Just like you, I heard that you are very rich now."
“Money is a bottomless pit. When it reaches a certain amount, the difference between more and less is not big. Especially in strange times, people who only think about money are fools.”
“Just like Master Liu, no matter how many billions he has, he can’t get his life back, and he won’t be able to see the sun tomorrow.”
After the two of them talked, Luo Chu's depressed mood relaxed a little.
No matter how difficult the road ahead is, he still firmly believes that the direction he chooses will never be wrong.
Flicking the cigarette butt out of the car window, Luo Chu started the car.
“Let’s go, take you back? Or go and sit in the bureau? By the way, I heard that Sangou is going to take a day off tomorrow? He said he plans to go back to his hometown in Panshiling?”
There is no need to hide this matter.
“Yes, my aunt’s family wants to live back in Panshiling.”
Luo Chu was a little surprised: "Isn't it safer to be in Star City at this time?"
“I think so too, but my aunt insists on going back to Panshiling.”
Luo Chu thought for a while, took out a few guns and a large amount of bullets from his bag, silently put them into a bag, and put them towards Jiang Yue.
“Give it to your aunt and them. A small part of the bullets are silver bullets.”
Jiang Yue was a little surprised: "Luo Chu, aren't you afraid of making mistakes?"
“What mistake did you make? I didn’t seize anything tonight. I didn’t lose the gun I was wearing, so what mistake could I make? After spending a few rounds of silver bullets, I still have this authority.”
Jiang Yue was startled, and then his heart warmed.
Although Luo Chu said it lightly, if this matter spreads, it will not be a big or small matter. If someone really makes a fuss, he will definitely be punished severely.
According to the country’s strict management of firearms, even if firearms are seized, they must not be given away.
Of course, strictly speaking, these guns were seized by Jiang Yue. Luo Chu is just returning them to Jiang Yue. Ignoring these processes, Luo Chu's words are true.
He did not seize or handle these guns tonight, so there is no right or wrong. Procedural justice is established.
No matter what, this favor made Jiang Yue's heart warm.
People respect me one foot, and I respect others one foot.
Jiang Yue put the bag at his feet and took out an evil talisman.
“Luo Chu, this talisman is given to you.”
Hold the evil-proofing charm in your hand, it exudes a faint spiritual charm, which is more charming than any gemstone or jade. You can tell at a glance that this thing is extraordinary and absolutely extraordinary.
“Xiaojiang, is this a magic talisman to ward off evil spirits?”
“Luo Chu is very knowledgeable.”
“Didn’t you suggest that Mr. Ke go to the black market to buy this thing? I happened to have seen pictures of this thing on the Internet, so I knew it.”
“Wear it close to your body, and ordinary ghosts and monsters won’t be able to get close to you. Of course, I can’t guarantee those high-level ghosts.”
“Then I won’t be pretentious with you.” Luo Chu happily put away the evil-proofing talisman.
“Xiaojiang, this is a big favor. I heard that this thing is worth tens of millions per piece on the black market. You just threw tens of millions at me. I deserve it, but I’m reluctant to part with it.”
Jiang Yue smiled and said: "Keep it. As I said, your Operations Bureau really needs to change quickly. You, the director of the Third Operations Division, must keep up with the equipment. Otherwise, if you encounter a high-level strange incident later, it will be really terrible.
It’s a little tricky.”
“Don’t put gold on my face. As for today, if I hadn’t come with you, I definitely wouldn’t have been able to get through this hurdle today, let alone a higher level.”
“I didn’t expect what happened today. I thought it was a case of earphone curse. Who knew it could involve such a big incident?”
"This is also a lesson learned. In strange times, no small thing can be ignored. In fact, the Operation Bureau has also updated a batch of newer equipment, but it is inconvenient to carry alone. After I go back, I have to reflect on it and try to summarize some actions.
The regulations are here. Such rash actions must be avoided as much as possible in the future."
Luo Chu said, already started the car and drove out of Yinyuan Apartment.
Send Jiang Yue directly to Villa No. 9, Daozi Lane, and Luo Chucai drives back to the action bureau.
Jiang Yue watched Luo Chu drive away and couldn't help but shake his head.
This man who regards his work as his home and his career as his own family is not tall or strong, but he does have a strong and unyielding heart.
Jiang Yue doesn’t want to be like Luo Chu, but that doesn’t affect his respect for Luo Chu.
It was past 0:00 when I got home, and except for my sister-in-law’s kid, no one else was asleep.
However, Jiang Ying already knew from Han Jingjing that Jiang Yue and Luo Chu were going to investigate a case. Although he was worried, he did not call to interfere with him.
Three dogs have also returned home.
"Second brother, you are not very interesting. You didn't take me to the action bureau." After not seeing each other for a few days, Sangou seemed to have grown a little. His face, which was not white enough in the first place, seemed to have darkened again, but the whole person looked
I am obviously much more energetic and seem to be more mature.
As soon as he opened his mouth, his funny nature was revealed.
“Sangou, I was still muttering on the way back, if I take you with me this time, maybe the operation will be much smoother.”
After hearing this, Sangou immediately felt a little swollen and his face was beaming with joy.
“Second brother, what’s going on this time? Let me tell you, if we two brothers join forces, we’ll have to take a detour when seeing any monsters or ghosts.”
“It’s not all those bad things? Forget it, it’s all over, don’t mention those bad things. Aren’t you going back to Panshiling tomorrow? Let’s go to bed early.”
Even if the matter of Yinyuan Apartment is not kept secret for the time being, Jiang Yue doesn't want to say more.
Too tragic and bloody.
It will only increase everyone’s psychological burden and cause serious discomfort to everyone.
Jiang Yue put the bag on the table: "By the way, sister-in-law, when you go back to Panshiling, everything is ready. Are you still a little bit defensive?"
When he shook the bag, several guns came out.
There are also a lot of bullets.
Jiang Ying frowned: "Xiao Yue, where did you get these things? Do they need this?"
Three dogs' eyes lit up and they reached out to get it.
“Don’t move, there are bullets inside.” Jiang Yue quickly stopped him.
Sangou snorted: "Who are you looking down on? I'm in the Action Bureau these days, and playing with guns is like playing with toys. It's not new at all."
Sister-in-law was a little surprised at first and asked in surprise: "Xiao Yue, is this for us?"
“You and your uncle each carry two guns and a little more bullets. Panshiling is a remote place and there is some danger. With this thing by your side, you will feel more at ease.”
When my sister-in-law thought about it carefully, it was indeed the truth.
"Xiao Yue is still thoughtful." Although my sister-in-law is older, she is still very open-minded and not that old-fashioned.
It was my uncle who looked at the gun on the table with a sad expression.
He never imagined that he, an honest man, would be able to deal with guns in his life. It is illegal to possess guns!
"Old Tang, you don't want it?" My sister-in-law couldn't bear to see her uncle's cowardly appearance.
“I...I can’t do it.” My uncle found a perfect excuse.
“Study!” My sister-in-law said without a doubt, “You need to open your mind and change your thinking. If you want to spend your whole life with your head down, is this allowed by the world? If you are afraid of trouble, trouble will definitely come to you.”
In the sister-in-law's house, the sister-in-law has the absolute right to speak.
No matter how reluctant my uncle is, he can only accept it silently.
Jiang Yue looked at this scene with a smile. Of course he knew that this was how his sister-in-law and uncle got along.
After they had made up their minds, Jiang Yue transferred most of the bullets to his sister-in-law: "Sister-in-law, these bullets with different colors are specially made silver bullets, which are more effective against evil monsters. Ordinary bullets basically have no damage to evil spirits.
It’s big, but it’s useful to guard against bad guys.”
“There are a lot of guns. Try to get as many as possible and hide them in different places in case of emergency. If something happens suddenly, you can get the guns nearby, which is also an advantage.”
My sister-in-law couldn’t help but nod: "Yeah, oh, brat, my love for you is not in vain."
Sangou asked bitterly: "Second brother, do you have my share?"
"You are from the Action Bureau. When you officially join, I will naturally provide you with a gun. What are you doing here?" Jiang Yue was really worried about giving him the gun. Not to mention that he would be exposed if he brought it to the Action Bureau. Who would
Do you know if he will get into trouble on the street with this thing?
“I knew it was not my fault.” Sangou was depressed.
“Sangou, you are still young. There will be a time when you play with guns. What? You little beast, do you still want to snatch things from my sister-in-law?”
Sister-in-law only left two guns for Jiang Yue, and took away all the others.
As Jiang Yue said, hiding in more places and having a gun nearby in times of crisis will indeed increase safety.
We were going back to Panshiling the next day, so we didn’t talk much and went back to our houses.
After returning to the room, the first thing Jiang Yue did was check the progress of the jade silkworm.
This time, Jiang Yue was given a big surprise.
The condensation tobacco around the Jade Silkworm was suddenly eaten away, leaving only a piece of dregs.
And the size of the jade silkworm has obviously increased by more than one circle!
The most amazing thing is that around the box containing the jade silkworms, several circles of thin silver threads appeared. They were very fine and very rare at present, but they did appear!
Jiang Yue was overjoyed, the jade silkworm actually spun silk!
Bringing back the sixty tobacco plants in the morning, Jiang Yue also checked the movement of the jade silkworms. At that time, he just felt that the jade silkworms were more active.
Who would have thought that just one day has passed and things have changed so much!
This is beyond Jiang Yue's expectation. Jiang Yue expected it to be within a month or two, but he didn't expect that in just a few days, the jade silkworm would actually spin silk!
"It seems that the Jade Silkworm's appetite has been opened up by the Ning Tobacco, and I have enough Ning Tobacco to keep me fed. The Jade Silkworm has enough to eat and drink, and naturally works harder!"
Jiang Yue doesn't have to worry about the tobacco at all now. He didn't even finish the tobacco last time. This time he got sixty more plants, enough for the jade silkworm to eat for a long time.
Jiang Yue cleaned up the residue, chopped up another piece of tobacco, and put it in the box.
“Come, eat more, and work more when you are full!”
Jiang Yue wished he could eat this jade silkworm and become a big fat man in one bite, and then spit out the jade silk silk for him. This thing is definitely a good thing.
Once extracted, it will definitely be a powerful weapon against ghosts!
