Chapter 116 Returning Home Rich and Rich
With full of anticipation, Xiao Fan formally joined the Lingbao Equipment Refining Factory and began his career as an immortal cultivator!

——At least, for him, this is a way to seek immortality.

Before he joined the sect, he liked to browse various posts about the sect's life, and he dreamed that one day he could become a member of it.

Now that my long-cherished wish has come true, I am naturally very excited and full of energy.

In fact, although the name of the Lingbao Equipment Refining Factory is strange, it looks no different from an ordinary sect.

They have to get up early every day, do morning lessons, learn Taoism, and cultivate their Taoist hearts.

At the same time, he started learning how to refine equipment.

The learning of refining equipment at Lingbao Refining Factory is very interesting. It emphasizes teaching without discrimination and teaching according to the students’ aptitude.

The teacher who teaches every day is the Taoist priest of Lingbao Taoist Temple. What he teaches is available on the Internet, but after listening to his lectures, many things that I used to understand suddenly became clear to me.

This made Xiao Fan feel even more moved, they were indeed a prestigious and upright sect.

After five days of study, the Lingbao Equipment Refining Factory officially began the assignment assessment.

This made Xiao Fan a little nervous.

It turns out that the General Chamber of Commerce divides clerks into three categories: Class A, Class B, and Class C.

Category A is technical talent, such as weapon refiners, alchemists, etc.

Category B is management talent, such as chamber of commerce manager, shopkeeper, deacon, clerk... and so on.

Category C is for special talents, and the General Chamber of Commerce does not have much explanation for this.

Each category has twelve levels, and the salary and benefits corresponding to each level are different.

In short, the placement test will determine which category they will be placed into.

In the future, you will focus on receiving teaching and training in related areas.

Although in theory, they can transfer jobs by self-study through internal online courses; the initial assignment assessment will also give a glimpse into their talents.

Xiao Fan doesn't want to be a shopkeeper's clerk.

So after five days of training, he should have rested, but he chose to audit the courses of the younger disciples. His diligent attitude was so great that even the teacher admired him.

The seventh day assessment officially begins.

The assessment results will be announced on the eighth day.

Xiao Fan became a Class A disciple as he wished, and even got a "first-class" score.

This made him very happy.

This means that he will become the "reserve talent" of the Lingbao Equipment Refining Factory. Not only will he receive more resources, but he will also be more likely to be promoted to a Class 2 disciple and become a team leader after the training is completed.

So much so that when he faced the boring task of engraving talismans, although he failed repeatedly, he still maintained great enthusiasm.

Because he can clearly see the path to promotion.

The days passed by in a boring yet fulfilling way.

That day, Xiao Fan got up early and after having breakfast, he went to the clerk's office to collect his training allowance.

——That’s right, the Lingbao Equipment Refining Factory provides salary allowances during the training period. Although it is very little, it is relative to cultivators. For Xiao Fan, who was born in the countryside, this is still a reward that he could not have imagined before.

The process of receiving the training allowance was smooth.

The deacon had no difficulty.

In other words, they don't dare to make things difficult because the Lingbao Equipment Refining Factory has opened a "Zhenzai Mailbox", and if there is bullying or corruption in the factory, they can report it at any time.

Naturally, no one dared to offend Gu Zhenzai.

After receiving the allowance, Xiao Fan left in a hurry.

When he was about to return home, he suddenly changed direction, took a long detour, and turned to the nearby county town to do some shopping and hired a carriage.

Only then did he let the coachman carry him leisurely back home.

Gulang Village is remote, and the appearance of a horse-drawn carriage immediately attracted the attention of countless villagers.

There are also curious children running around.

When the carriage stopped in front of Xiao Laosan's door and Xiao Fan, wearing a tight black uniform, got off the carriage, the huge village fell silent.

"Who is it? Why do you look familiar?"

"Hey, isn't this Xiao Banxian?" "Ah? Is it him?"

The incredulous looks and whispers from everyone around him made Xiao Fan's vanity explode.

He subconsciously patted the "Universal" cloud seal logo on his chest, smiled and nodded to everyone around him, then walked into the house.

Xiao Banxian has become rich!

The news spread throughout Gulan Village almost instantly.

The threshold of Xiao Laosan's house was almost trampled to pieces, and countless people squeezed in to see the novelty.

Listening to Xiao Banxian's somewhat nonchalant narration of life at the Lingbao Equipment Refining Factory, everyone was extremely envious and jealous.

Especially when they learned that the mastermind behind the General Chamber of Commerce was Taoist Yunli, all the villagers regarded Xiao Fan as a disciple of an immortal.

That fanatical attitude even scared Xiao Fan.

I wonder if I'm overdoing it.

However, if he was asked to dispel the rumor, he couldn't bear to give up the glory and could only keep a low profile as much as possible.

Little did they know that this low-key attitude, in the eyes of the villagers, was like the demeanor of an immortal.

He even became what the villagers called "other people's children".

In fact, at this time Xiao Fan had become the new idol of the children in Gulang Village.

Every day, there were children passing by from a distance, and some brave ones would squeeze into the house and ask questions to Brother Xiao.

Xiao Fan had no choice but to selectively pick out some content about the equipment refining factory and tell these children about it.

They became more fascinated after listening to it!

"Brother Xiao, can we also join the Immortal Sect?"

"Of course you can. As long as you refine your essence into qi and enter the Xuanmen, you have a great chance of becoming a disciple of the Lingbao Refining Factory. There are courses on the Internet. If you work hard, you will definitely be able to become a disciple of the immortal family like me."

Xiao Fan took the opportunity to educate him.

No, everyone was tired of hearing this kind of talk. After nodding obediently, they asked curiously:
"Brother Xiao, have you learned any magic this time?"

These words made Xiao Fan embarrassed.

Looking back over the past month, he has learned a lot, but it is difficult to express these things intuitively.

He couldn't possibly carve a talisman on the jade tablet on the spot, could he?
He can indeed carve it out, but the question is whether they can understand it?
"Want to see?"

"Yeah, I want to see it!"

"That won't do. How can we easily display the magic of immortals? But..."

Xiao Fan dragged out the word, and in the expectant eyes of the children, he smiled slightly and said:

"However, next time I come back, if anyone can learn to read the Three Character Classic, I will use my magic to make you memorize all the words in the world in an instant."

"Wow--"

These words immediately attracted excited shouts from the children.

Xiao Fan felt secretly proud of himself seeing this.

Currently, the Lingbao Equipment Refining Factory is refining a magical instrument called the Enlightenment Jade Slip, and the disciples in the factory enjoy a certain amount of internal discounts every month.

Based on his current salary, it would be more than enough to buy an enlightenment jade slip next month.

At that time, after using it a few times on the village children, you can continue to sell it and make a profit from the internal preferential price difference. It will be so cool.

This was not just a sudden whim of his.

But someone has already done it.

The Lingbao Equipment Refining Factory did not react to this, which can be regarded as an invisible benefit for the disciples of the General Chamber of Commerce.

The five-day visit to my parents passed in the blink of an eye.

When Xiao Fan left the village again, his situation was completely different from what it was a month ago.

Along the way, the villagers greeted each other politely. I wonder if they were hoping that one person would succeed and bring prosperity to the whole family, or if they were afraid of the ridicule and mockery they had received.
Xiao Fan, who had just walked out of Gulang Village, was already looking forward to his next return home.
