Journey to the West: Demon Emperor: Beginning as a Little Toad

Chapter 131 Long-term Worker Black Wind
The black bear demon was stunned when he heard this. He didn't quite believe what Xiao Chen said and questioned, "You are a demon who runs a weapons business, how can you also use these magic pill techniques?"

"Why do I need an elixir when I have this?"

Xiao Chen waved his hand and summoned a large peach from the world in his stomach. He smiled and said, "Heifeng, look, what is this?"

He and the black bear demon were currently in the small world inside his belly. It was extremely hidden, so he was not worried about being discovered.

The black bear demon looked at the big peach that was emitting a faint golden glow, fairy air, and a strong breath of life. Although he had never seen such a thing, the instinct of life still made him very greedy and he couldn't stop swallowing his saliva.

The Black Bear turned his head away, trying not to look at the peach, and waved his hands, saying, "You want to bribe me, Black Wind, with just a peach? Impossible!"

Xiao Chen was stunned when he heard this, and then he remembered that the black bear spirit might be a wild monster and might not recognize the peaches, so he patiently explained: "This is the treasure of the Three Realms, the peaches."

"If you eat the small fruit, you will become an immortal. If you eat the medium fruit, you will live forever."

"And this big fruit in my hand, if eaten by a mortal, can live as long as the heaven and earth, and as long as the sun and the moon."

"If you eat a peach, you will become immortal and it will also increase your magic power, helping you break through the realm."

"With this thing, why would you bother to study the art of immortality and elixir?"

As he spoke, Xiao Chen waved the peaches in front of the black bear demon's nose, tempting him.

"This……"

The extremely rich fragrance hit the Black Bear Demon in the face, and he felt relaxed and happy, ready to move. Even the bottleneck of the Golden Immortal state seemed to loosen a little. This magical effect made him believe it a little more.

The black bear stared at the peach eagerly, hesitated for a moment, and said, "It's impossible for me to be a slave."

"Not a slave, not a slave."

"I will use these peaches as payment and hire you as a long-term worker."

Xiao Chen couldn't help but laugh when he saw that the black bear demon had loosened up a bit.

A long-term worker is a kind of employment relationship in the world of Journey to the West. It is not shameful to be a long-term worker.

For example, Zhu Bajie is a pig demon with a huge appetite. He can never get enough to eat. In order to make a living, Zhu Bajie works as a farmhand in Gao Village, and gradually he becomes a son-in-law.

Of course, later on, Zhu Bajie changed his name to that of a disciple and went to work as a long-term worker on the journey to the West.

Zhu Bajie had the mentality of a real worker. He never regarded Tang Seng as his master. Not only did he not put in any effort in fighting monsters on the journey to the West, but as soon as something happened to Tang Seng, he would quit and go back.

Therefore, this fellow often cursed Sun Wukong in the air: "Idiot, you should also do something! Do something!"

But Xiao Chen could understand this. Tang Seng's job was gone, so he could just go back to Gao Laozhuang to work for a different employer. What was the point of working hard? What was the point of risking his life?
"Long-term worker?"

The Black Bear Demon's eyes struggled when he heard this. He looked at the peach again and asked tentatively, "What kind of work do you do and how long will you be a farmhand?"

"I have a mountain with some business on it, and I need someone to support it."

Xiao Chen explained.

Of course, there is no labor contract in this world, but he still has to make the content of the work clear.

After all, recruitment is a two-way choice, so it should be made clear in advance to avoid unpleasant cooperation between both parties.

"As for the working time, one thousand years."

"After you eat my peaches, you will live as long as the heaven and earth. A thousand years is nothing."

Xiao Chen said temptingly with a smile.

What Xiao Chen said was right. The large peaches were a treasure even rarer than Tang Monk's flesh. They were a great opportunity that was not circulated in the mortal world.

If monsters catch Tang Monk's flesh, they will eat it directly. If they don't delay, they will still have a chance to have a bite.

Ginseng fruit, I guess no monster dares to take advantage of Zhen Yuanzi. The peaches are in heaven, that's a fortiori.

Moreover, compared with the tens of thousands of years of lifespan of gods and monsters, a thousand years is really nothing. In fact, it is just the time it takes to take a nap.

At this time, Xiao Chen secretly calculated in his heart: "This black bear spirit still has great potential. In the future, he will at least reach the realm of Taiyi Golden Immortal."

"I've decided. For now, I'll get the black bear demon to my side, and then I'll slowly bring him down completely."

"At that time, it will be easy to get on the pirate ship, but difficult to get off!"

"Eight hundred years!"

The black bear demon was obviously tempted and started bargaining.

Compared to an endless lifespan, a few hundred years is actually not a long time, and it will pass by in a few more levels of retreat.

"One price, nine hundred years!"

Xiao Chen waved his hand and said in a tone that did not allow rejection.

“Work for ten years and take a year off.”

"Also, I want free food and lodging, and wine and meat for every meal." The black bear demon rolled his dark eyes and asked again.

If he could return to Black Wind Mountain and be the king for a year every ten years and take a vacation, it wouldn't really matter.

When his employment period is up, he will return to Black Wind Mountain and continue to be the Black Wind King.

"Work ten and rest one?"

"Food and lodging included?"

Xiao Chen was stunned when he heard this, but it was not a big problem.

The farmhand is not a slave. The relationship between the farmhand and the employer is equal, and the farmhand also has the right to rest and relax.

Moreover, compared to working five days a week and having two days off in later generations, or even working six days a week and having one day off in some places, working ten days a week and having one day off is more exploitative in the world of Journey to the West, but as a boss, he can accept it.

"Food and lodging included?"

Xiao Chen took a look at the black bear's big belly and saw that he was a big eater, but he was rich and could afford to feed him.

"Deal, my farmhand, Black Wind."

"I wish you a happy working life."

Xiao Chen smiled and stretched out his hand.

Although the black bear demon didn't quite understand what Xiao Chen meant by extending his hand, he still subconsciously extended his furry black bear hand.

So, the golden hand and the furry black hand were held together.

Employer: Golden Horn.

Farmhand: Black Wind.

Job description: Guarding the mountain demon.

Employment period: 900 years, work ten days and rest one day.

Benefits: Free food and accommodation, and free food and wine every day.

Reward: One large peach.

An employment relationship is established.

After taking advantage of the opportunity to sign a long-term labor contract with the Black Bear Demon, Xiao Chen thought for a while, then waved his hand and placed the peach directly in front of the Black Bear Demon.

The black bear demon was stunned, somewhat incredulous. According to the rules of long-term labor in this world, one must work first and then be paid.

Xiao Chen waved his hand and said with a smile: "Heifeng, take it. I see that you are about to break through, and now is the time when you need the help of the peaches."

"If you can improve your strength, I will be more assured about guarding the mountain."

The Black Bear Demon no longer hesitated, took the peaches, patted his chest, and said in a muffled voice:
"Boss, I still have some things to deal with in Black Wind Mountain."

"Heifeng will go to work at Silizhai in your Chechi country in one month."

"it is good!"

"I'll wait for you at Yuntai Mountain in Chechi Country."

Xiao Chen smiled.

After some twists and turns, Xiao Chen finally brought the black bear demon under his command. Although he was only his long-term worker, birds of a feather flock together. Sooner or later, he would be dragged into the water by him.

After the terms were agreed upon, Xiao Chen spat out the black bear demon from the small world in his stomach.

The black bear demon followed Xiao Chen and returned to Black Wind Mountain.

Seeing this, the white snake spirit was delighted and thought:
"This Golden Horn King is indeed worthy of his reputation. He has some skills and was subdued by the Black Bear Demon."

Xiao Chen glanced at the white snake spirit and saw what he was thinking, but for this, Xiao Chen could only express his deep apologies, as this was indeed his problem.

His current strength is not strong enough, his territory is not big enough, and his name is not famous enough.

Even a big demon like the Black Bear Demon would not bow down and worship him just by hearing his name.

He could only save the country in a roundabout way by "working as a long-term laborer" and bring big monsters like the Black Bear Demon under his command.

However, from then on, Silizhai finally had a high-end combat force under his command.

He no longer needs to guard the mountain himself.

From then on, the black bear demon, the guardian monster of Silizhai, arrived.
