Regarding the magical artifacts, Ye Feng was still quite ignorant, so he asked again, "What exactly can the laws and magical artifacts do? If I have a magical artifact at my current cultivation level, can I use it?"

The Law replied, "Given the current low cultivation level of the space owner, you cannot yet use magical artifacts. At least you need to reach the Fifth Stage of Alchemy and Formation of the Embryo to be able to use the Green, Blue, and Black level magical artifacts. Therefore, I cannot inform the space owner of the specific details about magical artifacts. However, I can give you a hint: Magical artifacts are the weapons and treasures of cultivators. They can kill and save lives. Powerful Green-level magical artifacts can even destroy a world or contain it within the artifact."

Ye Feng was shocked. He had never imagined that magical artifacts could be so powerful, even more so than nuclear weapons. Nuclear weapons can only destroy the world, but they cannot contain it or save lives.

Thinking about his current cultivation level, which was only at the initial perfection of the Second Stage, he realized he was still far from the Fifth Stage, and thus far from being able to use magical artifacts.

Putting aside his杂念, Ye Feng disconnected from the Law and played with teleportation in the space for a while before returning to reality.

That night, Ye Feng did not collect souls as he usually did. Instead, he took a break and slept soundly all night.

The next day, Ye Feng woke up before 6:30, a habit he had developed over many years.

After washing up and changing into new clothes, he looked in the mirror at the handsome young man and felt very good.

Starting the day with a good mood, Ye Feng was full of confidence for his new life.

Qin Yan's law firm was not too far from Wu Xinghua's Miaoyuan Company, but it was not close either. It would take about seven or eight bus stops. With Ye Feng's current abilities, he could run the whole way without feeling tired, but to avoid being seen as crazy by passersby, he decided to take the bus.

Upon arriving at Miaoyuan Company, Ye Feng found the HR department and was led to the business department by an HR staff member, where he was introduced to his colleagues.

The business department, where Ye Feng would mainly sign and deliver water orders, required him to record and sign for every delivery, regardless of the quantity. If he needed to exceed the daily quota, he would also need to register the additional deliveries in the business department.

Every month, the business department would submit a report to the company's finance department, detailing the work performance of all water delivery workers. Similarly, the business department would also send a special report to the finance department each week, summarizing the commission and piecework of the water delivery workers.

After verification by the finance department, the corresponding salary or commission would be paid in cash to the water delivery workers.

The business department had six employees, all young women, divided into three groups.

One group was responsible for taking orders by phone and computer operations, while the other two groups handled order verification and overall coordination.

The process was not complicated, but it required a lot of patience to do well, which is why the business department was mostly staffed with meticulous women.

After familiarizing himself with the business process, Ye Feng followed the HR staff to the company's logistics department.

After handing Ye Feng over to the logistics department manager, the HR staff left.

The logistics department was one of the most important departments in Miaoyuan Company, as all the bottled water had to be collected from here.

In addition, the logistics department was responsible for issuing work uniforms and protective equipment, managing company assets, and distributing holiday benefits.

The logistics department manager, Wang Cuizhen, was a middle-aged woman, somewhat overweight, and spoke a Southern Mandarin with a strong local accent.

Wang Manager first led Ye Feng to a small warehouse and introduced him, "Little Ye, let me give you a brief overview. Our Miaoyuan Water Company is the largest water company in the entire Xiahui District. President Wu is currently planning to establish our own bottled water production line. I hear the procedures have been completed, the factory and workshop have been found, and the automatic filling machines and inspection equipment are all in place. We just need our own brand. The Rain Dew Pure Water we currently distribute for Hongli Group is a well-known brand with a large market share, but the annual agency fee is also substantial. Let me share a piece of information with you: President Wu is negotiating with the new president of Hongli Group. If we can secure another three years of agency rights, we can gradually develop our own brand during this period. The future prospects of our Miaoyuan Water Company are immeasurable. So, you must work hard. Although the job of a water delivery worker is tough, the benefits are quite good. Young people who are not afraid of hard work can earn more. As long as you have the strength, you won't worry about saving money in the future."

Hearing Wang Cuizhen's words, Ye Feng understood why Wu Xinghua had been so firm with Zhao Chunnan that night. She had already started planning her own brand, but because it had not yet gone into production and the market prospects were unclear, she needed time to develop her brand. Therefore, she hoped to continue the agency rights for Rain Dew Pure Water to maintain the company's business development.

Ye Feng had to admire Wu Xinghua's foresight and vision. She had prepared a backup plan long ago.

Unfortunately, the talks with Zhao Chunnan had broken down, and once the previous agency contract expired, she would have to launch her own brand. The time for planning and preparation was running out.

It seemed that the breakdown of talks with Hongli was still unknown to the people at Miaoyuan.

Wu Xinghua did not mention it, and Ye Feng did not gossip about it. He followed Wang Cuizhen into the small warehouse, where he saw a row of electric tricycles used for water delivery.

Wang Manager continued, "Little Ye, our company is a legitimate company, not like those small water stores. To clarify, there are two types of water delivery workers. You are the most common type, a frontline water delivery worker. You usually ride these semi-motorized tricycles, which are very convenient for navigating through streets and alleys. The other type is the dedicated delivery workers who drive specialized trucks. Our company has twelve water stores in Xiahui District and five in Changjiang District. These dedicated delivery workers are responsible for delivering water to these stores. Now, you can choose a delivery vehicle."

Ye Feng looked at the row of delivery vehicles and noticed that they came in two types: one with a rear compartment and one without.

Seeing Ye Feng's confusion, Wang Cuizhen explained, "Little Ye, all our delivery vehicles are properly registered, so you don't need to worry about traffic police. The vehicles with rear compartments can carry twenty buckets of water at a time, while those without can carry a maximum of ten buckets. You can choose a vehicle based on your capabilities."

Ye Feng naturally chose the one with the rear compartment without hesitation.

After completing the vehicle registration procedures and loading a full truck of water, Ye Feng returned to the business department on his delivery vehicle, which had "Miaoyuan Water Company" in large red letters on the rear compartment. He needed to collect the relevant documents, work certificates, work badges, and water delivery worker guidelines from the business department. All the documents, except for the health certificate, which had not yet been issued, were slowly placed in a plastic folder and kept in the vehicle.

Ye Feng sighed, realizing that being a water delivery worker was not an easy job, with many rules and regulations to follow.

After signing the documents, changing into his work uniform, and putting on his badge, Ye Feng set off with twenty buckets of water, starting his first day of water delivery.

The only challenge Ye Feng faced was that although he had been in Mingzhu City for several years, he had mostly spent his time on construction sites and rarely had the opportunity to explore the city. Therefore, he was still unfamiliar with the streets, names, and locations of Mingzhu City.

Xiahui District, though just one district, had countless streets, residential areas, company buildings, and factories and schools.

Fortunately, Ye Feng had divine senses, which were far more useful than any radar or satellite navigation. With a single sweep of his divine senses, he could clearly perceive everything within a radius of over 200 square meters, which greatly helped him familiarize himself with the geography and navigate through the streets.

Looking at the delivery list given by the business department, he saw eighteen addresses and twenty buckets of water that needed to be delivered to these eighteen locations.

At this moment, Ye Feng suddenly realized that he had been overly optimistic. Even with his exceptional abilities, he probably wouldn't be able to deliver too many buckets of water in a day.

Why?

The reason was simple.

Most of the time was spent on the road.

The eighteen addresses spanned almost the entire Xiahui District, with one even extending into Xiapu District.

Given the reality, Ye Feng had no choice but to hurry. Completing the daily quota of forty buckets of water was definitely possible, and if he had extra time, he might even complete several more buckets for additional piecework pay.

Ye Feng even considered finding Wu Xinghua again in the future to see if she could provide him with a larger delivery vehicle, preferably one that could carry fifty buckets at a time.

What Ye Feng was most concerned about next was whether he could gain virtue points during the water delivery process.
