Chapter 3

1 ghost point can be exchanged for 100 yuan in soft currency. If the freely created ghost domain is operated well, an investment of 10 points can earn 20 points, and you can also earn item cards. After deducting the cost of exchanging item cards, opening a few free ghost domains a day can earn you at least a few hundred yuan!

Let's think a bit more broadly... For example, opening a ghost exorcism agency in the future, scaring people by pretending to be a ghost, and helping people exorcise ghosts and eliminate disasters. There might even be opportunities to make a lot of money...

Of course, the targets would definitely be those who are extremely wicked and wealthy but unkind.

"Since there's money to be made, you don't need to go to work! Just focus on completing tasks." The Ghost System approved of Meng Gui's idea.

"I'll quit my job tomorrow." Meng Gui had long been tired of his job, which was like manual labor. Hearing the Ghost System's words, he immediately made his decision.

Meng Gui currently works at a network company called Zhifeng Technology, which provides services such as server leasing, website planning and creation, and online water army operations. Although it's called a company, there are only about a dozen people, and the boss, Huang Zhiqiang, personally oversees and serves as the general manager.

Meng Gui studied computer science and joined Zhifeng Technology after graduating from university. Although he worked very hard, after the three-month probationary period, Boss Huang Zhiquan still did not give him a permanent position. It has been five months now, and every time he asked about his permanent position, Boss Huang Zhiquan always found excuses, such as insufficient work ability and poor work attitude, to delay it. Not being able to get a permanent position meant he could only receive the probationary salary, so Meng Gui no longer wanted to continue working there.

Last night, he completed a system task and earned 100 points, which can be exchanged for 10,000 yuan in soft currency. Now, with the opportunity to earn points through free tasks, Meng Gui, who was already thinking about quitting, naturally went to Boss Huang Zhiquan's office first thing after arriving at the company to resign.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

"What is it?" Boss Huang Zhiquan frowned when he saw Meng Gui loudly knocking on his office door.

Huang Zhiquan's Zhifeng Network Company lures newly graduated college students with a monthly salary of 10,000 yuan. However, after hiring them, he only pays a portion of the salary during the probationary period and then indefinitely delays their permanent position by citing reasons such as insufficient work ability, allowing him to continue employing them at a low salary.

Since the company doesn't require much technical expertise, most of the work is purely manual labor, and any computer science graduate can handle it. He can even hire part-time students at night. Therefore, he is not afraid that the hired students will quit due to the hard work. If no one is available, he can simply recruit a new batch from the university.

"I'm quitting, I won't work here anymore." Meng Gui sat down opposite Boss Huang Zhiquan's desk and looked him straight in the eye.

Boss Huang Zhiquan always gave Meng Gui a strong sense of oppression, and he had to be very cautious when speaking to him, always on guard against the boss's anger, table slamming, and bonus deductions. Today, however, he felt a sense of relief and vindication as he was about to quit.

"Have you thought it through? Don't regret it..." Huang Zhiquan glanced coldly at Meng Gui and then lowered his head.

"Of course, I won't regret it." Meng Gui replied, inwardly cursing... You black-hearted boss, I regret coming to your company and being deceived by you months ago!

"Then go and hand over your work to Xiao Zhou." Huang Zhiquan replied indifferently. Although Meng Gui worked hard, after he was refused a permanent position a few days ago, his work performance had become somewhat distracted. Huang Zhiquan had guessed that Meng Gui would eventually quit if he couldn't get a permanent position, and he knew that not raising his salary would not retain him, so he was not surprised at all.

"By the way, the company still owes me three months' salary. When will it be paid?" Meng Gui asked Boss Huang Zhiquan.

Since Meng Gui started working at the company, the first month's salary was paid on time, but the second month was delayed. The third, fourth, and this month's salaries, totaling three months, have not been paid yet.

Delaying the payment of several months' salary is also a strategy used by Boss Huang Zhiquan to better control the student employees.

"According to company regulations, you must give one month's notice before resigning. Since you did not give one month's notice, this month's salary will be deducted according to company regulations, or you must work for another month." Huang Zhiquan threw a company management regulation in front of Meng Gui.

This is also Huang Zhiquan's strategy. If Meng Gui endures and works for another month to get this month's salary, he will still not receive the unpaid salary, effectively working an extra month for free for Huang Zhiquan.

"Alright, I'll let this month's salary go, but what about the previous two months' salaries?" Meng Gui thought for a moment and then asked Huang Zhiquan.

"Follow the procedure and hand over your work first, then come back to settle the previous two months' salaries." Huang Zhiquan impatiently threw a work handover form to Meng Gui and waved his hand.

Reluctantly, Meng Gui left Huang Zhiquan's office and, under the supervision of a supervisor, handed over his work to a new student surnamed Zhou. After getting the signatures of the student and the supervisor, Meng Gui returned to Huang Zhiquan's office.

The company does not have a human resources department or a finance department, so all these matters must be handled in Boss Huang Zhiquan's office.

"Your two months' salary will be paid to you with the next payroll." Huang Zhiquan's face darkened when he received the work handover form and confirmed that Meng Gui had completed the handover. He was ready to dismiss Meng Gui with just one sentence.

"When is the next payroll?" Meng Gui, of course, needed to ask Huang Zhiquan clearly. Although he now has the Ghost System and doesn't care about these few thousand yuan, the money is the result of his hard work over several months, and he doesn't want Huang Zhiquan to take it for granted.

"How can I say that now? The company will pay you when there is money in the account. If there's no money, what can I pay you with?" Huang Zhiquan slammed the table, looking very angry.

"Hey! It's you who owes me money, not me who did something wrong. Why are you so aggressive?" Meng Gui was quite dissatisfied with Huang Zhiquan's attitude.

"Are you looking for trouble!?" Huang Zhiquan glared at Meng Gui. At the same time, his driver, a bald, muscular man in his thirties, rushed into Huang Zhiquan's office upon hearing the commotion, glaring at Meng Gui and rolling up his sleeves to reveal a tattoo on his arm.

Huang Zhiquan has a lot of experience dealing with these rural students. He uses a combination of flattery, deception, and intimidation, and there is no one he can't handle.

"I will go to the labor bureau to seek justice! Boss Huang, I will definitely get the three months' salary you owe me!" Meng Gui, looking at his thin arms and legs, knew he was no match for the two men in front of him. A wise man does not fight a losing battle, so he could only temporarily hold his breath.

"Go ahead! Go quickly! I was planning to pay you, but now that you dare to threaten me, you can forget about getting a single cent!" Huang Zhiquan showed a look of disdain for Meng Gui's words. He had no intention of paying Meng Gui's salary anyway, and now he felt he had a reasonable excuse.

Meng Gui was so angry that his whole body trembled. He had never been to the labor bureau before and didn't know what would happen. He didn't know if the labor bureau could help him recover the unpaid salary. But from Huang Zhiquan's words, it seemed he was confident that Meng Gui would get nothing, which was extremely infuriating.
