Chapter 448: Chapter 448 This Isn’t a Temple, But A Expanding Company
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The Great Buddhist Temple was a remote temple that many locals had never heard of.
It was located in the ravine of the county town below Hangzhou City.
There were about a dozen monks inside. The abbot’s name was Hui Bing; he was sixty-five years old this year.
From the last century until now, the temple has relied on related funding to survive.
In July last year, the Great Buddhist Temple suddenly became popular.
Its popularity spread, and the number of devotees increased from a few to an endless stream.
It was said that a Great Buddha dwelled in the temple, and praying inside suddenly became effective, be it for marriage or children.
It would also work on promotion, getting rich, or even hoping for your sugar daddy’s early death.
In any case, as long as you have a request, you could enter and burn three incense sticks, and it would immediately come true.
Correspondingly, the number of reports about supernatural content continued to increase all over the province.
Due to the scattered crowd and the involvement of ghosts and gods, many cases gradually turn into dead ends.
The special operations team used Big Data and loT to analyze and summarize the informants themselves, their relatives, and friends.
They all had their experiences at the Great Buddhist Temple.
Li Changjun first asked his people to investigate the case according to his past habits.
They sent people to the Great Buddhist Temple to investigate the information on the identity of the fire department, industry and commerce department, health department, fire department, public security department, culture department, tourism department, and so on.
According to his team members’ feedback, there was no problem with the fifteen monks in the Great Buddhist Temple.
After discussing with the higher-ups, Li Changjun felt that it was very likely that they were going in the wrong direction.
The problem was not the Great Buddhist Temple but the visitors coming and going.
The hundreds of people involved in the accident were all related to the Great Buddhist Temple.
It was very likely that among the other pilgrims, there were heretical sorcerers or demonic monks with impure motives.
Thus, Li Changjun used the old method of camping and waiting for something to happen.
Vroom…
A speeding SUV rumbled over.
“This bastard, ever since he got his own car, he’s been driving it like a race car,” Li Changjun huffed unhappily.
“Every few days, I have to go to the traffic police to get him.”
Perhaps because of Li Changjun’s unhappy expression, the SUV slowed down considerably.
The car came to a stop. Pang Guang, who was wearing long boots, jeans, a leather jacket, and sunglasses, got out of the vehicle in an imposing manner.
“Dr. Chen, long time no see.”
Pang Guang saluted Chen Yu casually.
“Not bad,” Chen Yu commented with a smile. “You look like a street racing gang member.”
“Sigh.”
Looking at Pang Guang’s sloppy appearance, Li Changjun sighed helplessly.
Pang Guang was the best example of someone who easily takes on bad influence.
A few months ago, Pang Guang was still a simple country boy.
He did whatever he was told to do, drove steadily, and was the first to rush forward when something happened.
Now, he raced the streets, smoked, and spoke with a mouth full of slang.
“Put aside the Midnight Route 10 bus incident and the ghost car-carrying incident on the mountain road.”
“You’ll accompany Dr. Chen to the Great Buddhist Temple later.”
“Remember, don’t street race anymore.”
“The group’s funds are not for you to pay your fines, and my face is not your exemption permit.”
Li Changjun glared at Pang Guang and gave him an ultimatum.
If he continued, he would call his parents.
The old couple were divine warlocks from the older generation. When they learned that their son had gotten a civil servant job, they were so excited that they personally came to thank him.
They also had a unique way of teaching their son a lesson.
“No, no, don’t. Please don’t call my parents. I promise I won’t be reckless anymore.”
When Pang Guang remembered how his parents had invited the gods to beat him up, he shuddered.
“We’re leaving.”
Chen Yu promptly resolved the situation and stopped Pang Guang from continuing to dig his grave.
The Great Buddhist Temple was about 200 kilometers away from downtown Hangzhou City.
When the two of them arrived, it was already three o’clock in the afternoon.
Before the guards left, they passed today’s information to Pang Guang in advance.
“Dr. Chen, should we buy tickets directly or sneak in at midnight?”
Pang Guang parked the off-road vehicle and looked eager for an adventure.
“Follow me,” Chen Yu said.
After saying that, Chen Yu strode toward the side of the Great Buddhist Temple.
They walked along the temple wall for about five minutes.
Soon, the two of them arrived at the back of the Great Buddhist Temple.
There was a line of words on it: Employee Passageway.
Pang Guang laughed, “Employee passageway? If there are employees, there must be HR and Finance departments, right?”
“There really is,” Chen Yu said with a smile.
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yu raised his hand and knocked on the back door.
“The tourists go through the front door. The back door is not open.”
After a few knocks, the back door was opened. A middle-aged monk reminded him with a grim expression.
“Hello,” Chen Yu said. “I’m here to apply for a job.”
Pang Guang’s heart skipped a beat.
Chen Yu was ruthless.
In order to go in and investigate, he wanted to shave his head and become a monk.
Pang Guang groaned inwardly as he stroked his long hair.
“Job application?”
“What position are you applying for?” The middle-aged monk asked after examining Chen Yu.
“Construction Engineer.”
“What qualifications? What major? Do you have a certificate?”
“Hangzhou City University, Department of Construction, Bachelor’s degree, Level 2 architect certificate.”
“Not bad, young, and promising.”
Seeing Chen Yu’s fluent answers, a smile appeared on the middle-aged monk’s face.
Was this a temple or a construction site?
Pang Guang’s experience of moving bricks resurfaced in his mind.
Brother, you are a temple; you should be recruiting monks!
Why the hell would you need an architect?
“What are your personal evaluation skills?” asked the middle-aged monk.
“Good coordination and teamwork skills,” Chen Yu said casually. “I’m good at writing official documents, brave enough to take responsibility, and careful in my work.”
“Come in and fill out a form. The abbot will come over to interview you later.”
The middle-aged monk opened the back door and motioned for the two of them to follow him to a small room not far away.
Chen Yu slowly walked over and handed the phone to Pang Guang.
Looking at the contents, Pang Guang was stunned.
The phone screen was a recruitment website.
The words ‘Great Buddhist Temple’ and ‘Recruitment’ were on it.
The working hours were nine to six, and the salary was good. Food and accommodation were included during the working period.
There was no KPI or mandatory attendance, either.
What an ideal job!
They were looking for a senior construction engineer, sales manager, HR manager, finance manager, project planning manager, and a new media operations manager.
???
Pang Guang was confused.
This wasn’t a construction site, but a company preparing to expand its business.
Why would a Buddhist temple with only 15 monks want to recruit 50 salesmen?
“By the way, what position is he applying for?”
The middle-aged monk suddenly stopped and turned to look at Pang Guang.
“I won’t hide it from you, sir,” Chen Yu said with a strange expression. “He’s my younger brother.”
“My brother is an impulsive person. He’s a great fighter and listens to anyone who treats him well.”
“He once fought five people on behalf of a friend and severely injured them. He was only released from prison recently.”
“I’m afraid that he won’t learn his lesson, so I bring him wherever I go to prevent him from getting into another fight.”
“Aiyaya, not at a disadvantage in a one-on-five fight. What a talent!”
The middle-aged monk’s eyes lit up as if he had seen a rare treasure.
“I think with your brother’s talent, he can be the abbot’s bodyguard..”
