Hire little monsters in your dreams every day

Chapter 87 Who is the Paper Tiger?
"Ow..."

Mink cut a large piece of steak, stuffed it into his mouth with a fork, puffed out his cheeks, and squinted as he slowly chewed.

Wu Yun sat next to him, eating while talking on the phone with Wang Yaozu and listening to him complain.

"...good gold, just bought the day before yesterday, a five-pound gold bar!"
"I bought it and hadn't even had a chance to use it properly before locking it in the safe and leaving it overnight."

"When I got up the next morning and went to check again, guess what? It was gone!"
"The BRICS are gone!"
"Who the hell said antiques in prosperous times and gold in chaotic times?"

"Gold is really unreliable!"

Wu Yun listened, ate, and couldn't help but chuckle.

"...Over the years, I've failed in many investments. I used to think, if investing in this doesn't work, and investing in that doesn't work, then investing in gold should work, right?"

"In the end, this was the cleanest and most cost-effective investment I've ever made!"

Wang Yaozu spoke while on the verge of tears.

Wu Yun tried to suppress his laughter.

As the two were chatting, Wang Yaozu suddenly spoke.

"I've got a phone call coming in, I'll go answer it."

……

Blah blah blah...

The heavy rain was still falling outside the window.

The office building of the Bureau of Non-Natural Affairs was still brightly lit.

"...Oh, okay, okay."

"Are you really sure about this?"
"Okay, then keep your contact information up-to-date. I'll let you know as soon as possible."

hang up the phone.

Li Nuanling looked at Gu Qingfeng, Qin Wei, Huang Xiaozhong and others beside her.

Wang Yaozu said he was willing!

"He was very willing to attend the press conference and take his gold bars back at the conference."

The office was quiet for a moment.

Qin Wei pondered for a moment.

"Did he...did he know that this press conference might be dangerous?"

Li Nuanling nodded, then shook her head.

"He...he was very excited."

He said he believes that good will prevail over evil and that justice will prevail.

He said that these were originally his gold bricks, and it was only right for him to take them back.

"He is not afraid of retaliation."

You guys look at me, I look at you.

Logically speaking, Wang Yaozu's words are certainly correct.

But the key is that times have changed, and many things don't necessarily follow the rules anymore.

Qin Wei continued.

"So what do you all think?"

"Are we going to hold this press conference at East Lake?"

"The instructions from Beijing were to respect our own wishes and allow us to take into account the actual situation before carrying out our work."

They all fell into thought.

Not just East Lake...

In recent days, all sorts of strange cases have been occurring frequently across the country, with people being murdered, robbed, or stolen from.

The source of the unrest has been traced to a strange exchange agency.

As long as you have spiritual energy, you can exchange it for anything from this structure!
For example, cars... This organization doesn't sell cars, but if you want to redeem one, they can steal one for you!

For example, BRICS... This organization doesn't produce gold, but if you want to exchange it, they can help you steal one!

If a press conference were held at East Lake to convict the purchasers of this organization and return the stolen gold bars to their rightful owners, this would effectively curb the organization's arrogance and help maintain good social order.

But obviously, it will also offend them.

Why not hold the press conference in Beijing?

Huang Xiaozhong broke the silence.

"What's the point of having East Lake?"

He is very outspoken.

He wasn't from Donghu, but he still spoke out for Donghu.

Actually, everyone understands...

The purpose of this press conference is to slap them in the face, to slap that weird organization in the face!
But if you don't run it well, or if something goes wrong, you'll be slapped in the face by that strange organization!
Given the uncertainty of victory, risking Donghu's reputation is certainly better than risking Shangjing's.

Gu Qingfeng let out a long breath. "My suggestion is to open it."

"It's time for us to bravely take responsibility!"

……

"Eat it all!"
You must eat it!

"And you have to lick the plate clean!"

In the restaurant, Wu Yun cut a slice of peach for each employee and put it on their plate.

As always, the dozen or so minks were unwilling.

"Hey?"

"Ow?"

They were involved in the entire process of collecting spiritual energy and planting immortal peaches, so of course they knew how precious the immortal peaches were!
They'll eat this stuff and it won't do them any good, so why waste it?

Wu Yun finished distributing the peaches to the employees.

Then they took out the register of celestial officials.

I know what everyone is thinking.

"Your absorption rate from eating peaches is indeed not high."

"But it's not a complete waste."

More than a dozen minks turned their little heads and looked at the owner.

But then the boss opened the roster.

"Diao Baibai has been cultivating for one year and one month."

“Diao Heihei, one year and one month of cultivation.”

“The sable is slender and graceful, and has cultivated for a year.”

"Diao Yinyin..."

As the boss read it aloud, the minks' eyes lit up!
"Hey?"

"Ow?"

They actually have cultivation levels?
Looking at the peaches on the plate, I suddenly felt that all those years of eating peaches hadn't been in vain!
……

"They...are going to hold a press conference?"

In the small conference room.

The director and more than a dozen deputy directors of the Lingyu Office are having an emergency meeting.

Yu Jinhong, head of the Spiritual Energy Recovery Section, and Lü Qingchen, acting head of the Publicity Section, were also present as observers.

"How can this work?

“Those foolish celestial officials at the bottom level are already timid. If they are frightened like this, won’t they become even more hesitant and afraid to take any action in the future?”

"If they're held back, where will our spiritual energy come from?"

"Building trust is difficult, but collapsing trust is easy."

"The lower-level celestial officials finally trusted us and were willing to exchange their spiritual energy with us."

"Now the Bureau of Non-Natural Affairs wants to arrest our clients and return the gold bricks we obtained to their original owners. Isn't this announcing our incompetence to all the celestial officials in the world?"

"This is absolutely unacceptable!"

The deputy directors were all furious, their faces turning red, and they spoke with righteous indignation.

Although they were doing illegal work, they didn't think they were wrong...

The so-called "violation of the law" refers to violating the previous "law".

The new era demands a new order!

"I suggest we just cancel this press conference and kill the speaker."

"That's right, let the Unnatural Bureau know how powerful we are. Kill that guy who threw the gold brick, what's his name, Yaozu?!"
“We’re giving him a gold brick as a sign of respect, yet he still dares to try and take it back.”
"I won't tolerate this bad habit!"

They are completely unafraid of unnatural forces.

"enough."

Just then, the director, dressed in pajamas and wearing a hood, at the head of the conference table, interrupted all the conversation.

"This press conference will still be held."

"But we need to add some content."

Don't you think the mortal world is too quiet now?

"There are clearly ten thousand celestial officials, with titles, hats, and celestial artifacts, walking in the world, but all of them are hesitant and dare not do anything!"
"They are bound!"

"It's not that they're bound by the unnatural forces, but by their own fear of the authorities!"

"This press conference is a good opportunity to let them see who the paper tiger is."
