814: 813: Worldly Trials Refining Heart 814: 813: Worldly Trials Refining Heart 1998 was one of the most important years for the country’s official economic takeoff; many people earned their first pot of gold that year.
Tang Feng, of course, didn’t need to rack his brains.
After strolling along the street for a while, he entered a jewelry store.
Back then, anyone who could afford to open a jewelry store wasn’t ordinary—they were among the first to amass wealth.
Tang Feng first exchanged so money to spend.
Two bricks of Spirit Jade were traded for five million RMB.
At that ti, this amount already made one a tycoon.
The jewelry store was thrilled to receive the two pieces of Spirit Jade.
Although they were from an Ancient Martial Family and had heard of Spiritual Energy, they couldn’t help but feel awestruck when encountering it firsthand.
Without hesitation, they paid five million yuan for it.
This was nearly half of the family’s assets.
Of course, they left Tang Feng a business card, hoping he’d trade more jade with their jewelry store in the future.
Tang Feng nodded without saying much.
With his current realm, he was undoubtedly at the pinnacle of the Ancient Martial World, not to ntion his Undying Body.
What comforted him was that the Elixir Pond still existed, and it had even reverted to the Spiritual Elixir Pool, as if destined by fate.
Could it be that after rebuilding myself, I didn’t save enough people, lacked rit, and created this situation for myself?
Oh well, might as well make peace with it.
Now I’m truly an Immortal Doctor, guaranteed authentic.
But who would believe ?
Should I open a dical Hall or just find a job?
Running a dical Hall is tiring; let’s try the experience of getting a job.
I’ll help people when I encounter those in need and stroll around the talent market.
The talent market in 1998, to be honest, wasn’t very crowded.
Coupled with it being the off-season for job hunting, Tang Feng smoothly arrived at the interview site.
The company was Ye’s Biotechnology Group, a firm with a formidable reputation.
In an era that emphasized a company’s strength, Tang Feng couldn’t resist trying his luck at such a large corporation recruiting employees.
He filled out the form, but when it ca to the ID, he hesitated.
He couldn’t possibly pull out an ID from 200 years in the future, could he?
What to do?
He made a trip to the restroom, used advanced technology to hack into the system, and created an ID.
Such trivial matters were effortless for him.
He returned to the interview site.
When his turn ca, he felt sowhat nervous—it was his first ti job-hunting, after all.
Thankfully, the interviewer, a woman, was laid-back, exuded professional charm, and had an impressive aura.
Tang Feng couldn’t help but glance at her several more tis.
“Zhe Da?” The woman looked at Tang Feng curiously and asked.
“Yes.”
“Class of ’97, Economics Departnt?” The corners of her mouth curled into a peculiar smile.
“Correct.”
“I’m also from the Economics Departnt, but class of ’96,” she said with a smile.
“Oh, so you’re my senior!
I didn’t expect soone so beautiful to be so approachable as well.
I hope you can ntor if there’s an opportunity,” Tang Feng said earnestly.
The other interviewees sneered at Tang Feng; his flattery was far too blatant.
“No problem.
However, our company is hiring sales representatives.”
“Doesn’t matter; it’s all work.
Being in the sa company as my senior ans I can seek guidance if needed.
And besides, I’m still young—getting so experience isn’t a bad thing,” Tang Feng said with a smile.
“You’re quite articulate, junior.
Seems like you’re cut out for sales.
Can you start work tomorrow?”
“No problem.”
“Here’s your employnt notification.
Just bring it to the HR departnt tomorrow to officially join.” The woman smiled.
“Thank you, senior.
If there’s anything you need at work, don’t hesitate to let know.” Tang Feng smiled.
“Alright, I’ll keep that in mind.”
“Goodbye.” Without dragging things out, Tang Feng flashed a smile at the other interviewees, then strode away.
“Sister Qing, aren’t you from the class of ’97 Economics Departnt?”
“Haha, yes.
That’s why I admire that kid even more—the stuff he made up sounded so convincing.
Our sales departnt needs this kind of talent.”
The woman beside her looked sowhat confused.
After leaving the talent market, Tang Feng headed to the main office.
Since he’d previously completed the docuntation, everything checked out, and he quickly obtained a temporary ID.
Then he headed to Zhe City’s latest residential developnt—Splendid Elegant Villa.
Wearing casual clothes, Tang Feng entered.
Perhaps due to his youth, no one paid him any attention.
In contrast, several female sales agents surrounded the gentlen with big bellies.
In those days, a bulging belly was the mark of many wealthy businessn.
Their look was completed with a purse tucked under their arm—absolutely quintessential boss vibes.
All they needed was a face that scread, “I’m rich.”
Tang Feng’s ntal Realm remained unaffected.
He was here to buy a house, not to find trouble.
He glanced around, and suddenly, a waft of perfu drifted over.
Tang Feng looked up to discover a striking woman standing beside him.
She appeared to be in her early thirties, sporting a cascade of wavy curls, fiery red lips, and a blue business suit that concealed a figure brimming with enticing Energy.
“Little brother, here with your parents to buy a house?”
Tang Feng shook his head.
“You’re buying one on your own?” The woman asked, surprised.
“Why, is that not possible?” Tang Feng asked with a smile.
“Of course not.
I just thought you looked refined—I was curious which family’s young master you might be?”
Probing for information?
“You flatter , sister.
I’m just a loner.”
“I apologize; I didn’t an to intrude.”
“No offense taken,” Tang Feng said, amused at the woman’s hesitant expression.
“Sister, is there sothing else?”
“Little brother, could you help with sothing later?” The woman seed a bit embarrassed.
“What’s the problem?”
“A man will be coming soon.
I don’t want to deal with him, so you know what to do.”
“I don’t know.” Tang Feng feigned ignorance.
“That’s fine; just say you’re my brother later.
Don’t let go with him—that’s all,” the woman said.
“Sister, you’re old enough to refuse.
Why care about him?”
“You don’t understand.
People have monts when they can’t act freely.
He’s a client of our company.
Anyway, no one else can help right now.
He’s coming; you must help .” The woman ended by casually hooking her arm around his.
Tang Feng felt his arm graze sothing soft—it was certainly firm and bouncy.
Fine.
I’ll play along; it’s not like I’ll lose out.
“Ruoling, why…?” A middle-aged man with slicked-back hair spotted the woman clinging to a young man and looked deeply displeased.
“Old Wei, let introduce you—this is my brother.
Not a blood relative, but like one.
He’s here to buy a house today.
Sorry, I won’t be able to accompany you anymore.”
“Ruoling, that wasn’t what you agreed, and I’ve never heard of you having a brother.” The middle-aged man’s expression darkened.
“Sorry, uncle.
My sister’s busy—you’re free to go ahead without her,” Tang Feng said arrogantly.
“Ruoling, are you seriously not coming?
Director Zou won’t be so understanding about this.”
Miao Ruoling trembled slightly, about to reply, but Tang Feng gently patted her.
“Uncle, are you threatening my sister?” His gaze turned icy.
Old Wei jolted in fright.
That look—more intimidating than Director Zou’s.
This young man was no one he could afford to offend, so he reluctantly left.
No smile lingered on his face as he departed.
Once gone, Miao Ruoling visibly breathed a sigh of relief, unhooking her arm from Tang Feng’s.
“Sister, you’re really sothing—burning the bridge after crossing it,” Tang Feng said with a laugh.
“Haha, what’s wrong?
Getting addicted?
Don’t think I didn’t notice—soone deliberately bumped into quite a few tis.
Who knew soone so young could have such impure thoughts.”
“Young?
Not that young—I’m fully grown and definitely an adult,” Tang Feng said with a grin.
“Oh really?
Maybe you should prove it soti.” As she spoke, her tongue flicked across her lips suggestively, a movent that nearly made Tang Feng lose control.
