Ten Thousand Soul Banner: Deceased, do you have any unfulfilled wishes? Chapter 237 Preparing to Resign
"Shen Siyuan, want so snacks?"
Buried in his phone, Shen Siyuan heard Tian Yunrui calling him, looked up, and saw a bag of snacks being tossed to him.
Hurriedly reaching out to catch it, he realized it was a small bag of beef jerky.
"Did you buy snacks again?" Shen Siyuan directly tore open the packet.
Tian Yunrui had a particular fondness for snacks, so he often bought various kinds online in bulk.
He was also very generous, always sharing with everyone once he brought them back. If anyone wanted snacks on normal days, he would readily give them out.
"Old Tian, give another one," said Wang Chao, sitting opposite him, reaching out his hand.
"You always eat the most," Tian Yunrui remarked, sowhat irritated.
Yet, he still handed over another bag.
"You call him Old Tian when you need sothing, and Fatty Tian when you don’t, hehe..." Li Kang could not help but make a mocking remark.
"Mind your own business; you talk too much," Wang Chao retorted, annoyed.
"I’ve got so crispy noodles here, who wants so?" Chen Hao pulled open his drawer.
"I’ll take so..."
Lin Manzhi imdiately stood up.
"I’ve got so crunchy corners here..."
"Do you guys want so Oreos?"
...
Everyone began pulling open their drawers, searching for snacks.
Even Shen Siyuan opened his drawer and remarked, "I’ve got so Banlangen here, does anyone want it?"
"Ew~"
"Co on, guys, it’s about to expire."
He was t with unanimous derision from the others.
The relaxed atmosphere revived everyone’s minds which had been groggy from the afternoon.
Ever since his return from the Netherworld, Shen Siyuan had been contemplating resigning because he wanted to enhance his power, and the fastest way was through ’Five Elents Primordial Magnetic Sword’ by extracting more Primordial Magnetism and Five Elents Qi from the land, to nourish and refine himself.
Moreover, he wanted to use the unique nature of the ’Five Elents Primordial Magnetic Sword’ to cultivate the Five Elents Escape Technique and, additionally, the unique Magnetic Escape.
These would require traveling to special places and a significant amount of ti.
These definitely conflicted with his current job, therefore he had been planning on resigning, though he would miss the easygoing nature of his current job, it was ti to make a choice.
Since he was preparing to leave, he decided to notify Zhou Chuan in advance.
The company had a policy that required notifying one month in advance before resigning.
Then, there had to be signatures from the person handing over duties, the direct supervisor, and the manager before one could officially resign.
However, few people followed this rule; generally, after handing over, opting to forgo the following month’s salary, the managent usually wouldn’t make it difficult and would sign off directly.
In Bin Hai City, the entire IT industry isn’t very large; almost all IT talents circulated within the industry, so it was common to encounter each other now and then, hopping from one company to another beca quite normal.
"Brother Chuan, got a mont?" Shen Siyuan got up and called out to Zhou Chuan.
He was hunched over, staying in his seat, grinning at sothing on his computer.
Hearing Shen Siyuan calling him didn’t seem to surprise him; he picked up a cigarette and lighter beside him and stood up to walk outside.
Shen Siyuan hurriedly followed him.
"What’s Shen Siyuan discussing with Brother Chuan?" Wang Chao was the first to ask curiously.
"Do you even have to ask? It’s definitely about resigning," Tian Yunrui confidently stated.
"If it were , I’d resign too. A month’s salary probably can’t even cover his girlfriend’s gas money," said Li Kang.
"That’s you; Shen Siyuan’s salary is definitely higher than yours," retorted Zhang Kaixuan from across him.
"Give a break, how much higher can it possibly be given this company’s stinginess?" Lu Ran said dismissively.
...
Everyone agreed that you could slack off or just get by at the company, but getting actual work done for a pay raise was out of the question.
Especially in their online ga departnt, which was entirely made up of slackers. It seed like the boss had given up, only requiring Zheng Can to keep the finances balanced.
He mainly focused on the standalone ga departnt, which was the real moneymaker.
The hottest product was a parkour ga; when it first launched, it generated daily revenue of twenty to thirty million, literally like a money-printing machine.
Later, they purchased several ani IPs and released a few standalone gas. Although they didn’t beco massive hits, with the help of the IPs, the revenue was still very decent.
So, the boss was even more dismissive of the trivial results from the online ga departnt.
"Ah, Si Yuan is leaving, how can you all be so happy about this? Shouldn’t you feel a bit sad and express so nostalgia?" Chen Hao said discontentedly.
"Hehe~"
Everyone burst into laughter.
They naturally knew why he was upset.
With Shen Siyuan gone, all his work would be handed over to Chen Hao.
Doing the work of an additional person but receiving the salary of one, nobody would be happy about that.
But this was an order from their superiors, and he had no choice but to accept.
He couldn’t find any reason to refuse, as everyone in the departnt was underutilized and didn’t have a reason to say no.
"Have you thought it through?" Without waiting for Shen Siyuan to speak, Zhou Chuan directly asked.
"Yeah." Shen Siyuan nodded.
Zhou Chuan lit a cigarette for himself and took a deep drag.
He didn’t offer one to Shen Siyuan because he knew that Shen Siyuan didn’t smoke, so he didn’t bother being polite.
"Do you have any plans for what you’re going to do next?" Zhou Chuan asked.
"I don’t have any plans at the mont."
Shen Siyuan naturally wouldn’t tell him that he would focus all his energy on cultivation.
"Actually, I don’t agree with you resigning," Zhou Chuan said.
"Why?" Shen Siyuan asked, curious.
"I know you have a wealthy girlfriend, and you probably don’t care about the salary anymore, but not having a job is another matter..."
"As a man, you can’t just idly enjoy life; even if you don’t make money, you need a job..."
"You can’t always spend your girlfriend’s money, right? If you plan to marry her, you need to buy a house, right? A car as well? You can’t let the woman pay for everything..."
"Why not?" Shen Siyuan asked.
Zhou Chuan: ...
"You’re a man; you ought to be a bit more assertive," Zhou Chuan said, annoyed.
"If food is brought to your mouth, wouldn’t you eat it?" Shen Siyuan retorted.
On hearing this, Zhou Chuan, without thinking, said, "I would."
Then, the two looked at each other and chuckled.
"You lucky guy, but being controlled financially by a woman isn’t really a good thing. I hope you can stand on your own two feet and be self-sufficient one day. If one day you can’t afford a al, co find , and I’ll let you co back to your current position..."
"Can’t you hope for sothing better?"
"I’m hoping for sothing better, my ass. I’m too jealous of your luck, kid. Why do all the good things happen to you..." Zhou Chuan grumbled.
"Because I’m handso," Shen Siyuan joked.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Chuan didn’t argue.
Staring intently at Shen Siyuan, he said, "You really do seem a lot handsor lately, and you’ve slimd down quite a bit. Have you been working out?"
Shen Siyuan nodded.
Zhou Chuan patted his belly and sighed, "Seems like I need to lose so weight too, aiming to get a taste of the sweet life."
"You won’t get to live off a woman, and it has nothing to do with whether you’re fat or not," Shen Siyuan bluntly poked at his sore spot.
Though Zhou Chuan wasn’t exactly ugly, with his round face and ordinary looks, no amount of fitness could help him live off a woman.
After a few laughs between the two, the matter was settled, and during this ti, Shen Siyuan handed over all his tasks to Chen Hao.
