Chapter 242 - Resolving Teacher Qiao’s Worries (1/2)

Pei Qian held Qiao Liang’s hand at once. “Teacher Qiao, I’ve heard a lot about you, I’ve heard a lot about you.”

Qiao Liang immediately felt overwhelmed by Boss Pei’s passion. He bowed slightly at once and said, “Boss Pei, it’s an honor to meet you.”

Pei Qian sized Qiao Liang up and discovered that his old enemy looked quite upright after all. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his five features looked good. The only thing was he looked slightly dispirited and plump. He looked like a teenager with pure internet addiction. However, he was different from Bao Xu. Bao Xu was slightly bald and malnourished. On the other hand, Teacher Qiao had a head full of thick hair, and his figure was quite round. He just looked a little weak in general.

Qiao Liang was shocked that Pei Qian looked so young. He had already been prepared for Boss Pei to be young, but he was much younger than Qiao Liang had expected.

No matter which angle he looked at Boss Pei from, he looked younger than Qiao Liang.

Boss Pei was already the owner of a company at such a young age. What’s more, he was only just finding his place in the small circle of gaming videos now. He had not even made huge contributions yet. Qiao Liang could not help but feel sorrowful and envious. Pei Qian led Qiao Liang to the living room, poured him a cup of tea, and then exchanged a couple of pleasantries.

“Boss Pei, I’ve rested enough. Let’s talk about business now.” Qiao Liang took the initiative to discuss work. In fact, there was no need for him to rush things. He could have waited to discuss work after lunch.

However, Boss Pei had already taken such good care of him. He chauffeured Qiao Liang around and arranged for such good accommodation. He scored full marks on various aspects. Of course, Qiao Liang had to show that he was ready and eager to start work. Pei Qian nodded and said, “Alright.”

The fish had taken the initiative to take the bait. What more could I ask for?

Pei Qian had wanted to give Teacher Qiao more time to rest, so that he would not be overwhelmed physically and emotionally. However, since Teacher Qiao brought up the topic first, Pei Qian had to go along with it.

Pei Qian had already prepared the contract. “Let’s sign the contract first.”

Qiao Liang took it and scanned it quickly. The contract contained the terms that they had agreed on earlier. He would play the game for eight hours each day, and he would earn five hundred yuan.

If he rested on weekends, he would earn about ten thousand yuan per month. If he did not rest, he would be paid overtime. That meant he would earn more each month.

Although they had agreed on these terms in advance, they had not spoken in much detail. Qiao Liang was also uncertain if they would pull any tricks in the contract or if they would make more complicated and ridiculous requests. However, from the contract in front of him, he could confirm that there was no such thing. He just had to play the game for eight hours each day in order to earn five hundred yuan!

Qiao Liang felt emotional. Boss Pei was an outstanding person indeed!

In this day and age, ten thousand yuan per month was considered quite a high salary.

Of course, if Qiao Liang felt inspired and began to take in sponsored partnerships like crazy, he would be able to earn about ten thousand yuan a month as well.

However, that would be extremely exhausting.

He would also have to rush production of his videos overnight, write the plots seriously, edit the videos, and then have good enough luck to meet rich clients. Maybe then, he would be able to earn that much money.

Comparatively, this job would be much more relaxing. Nothing was expected of him. He would just have to spend eight hours playing Repent and be Saved every day.

Qiao Liang scanned the contract twice and then signed it happily.

“Okay, come with me.”

Pei Qian and Qiao Liang chatted and joked around as they left Tengda’s office building. Little Sun then drove both of them to the nearest Fish-Catching Internet Cafe.

Pei Qian did not plan for Qiao Liang to play in the office. That was because Li Yada and the other employees in the office probably knew about the design of the game. They knew things like which weapon was the best, which route was the easiest, how to obtain the Pudu in the game, and whatnot.

If Qiao Liang played the game in the office, he would be able to discuss it with the other employees if he lost horribly. Once he understood the tips and tricks, the game would seem less difficult for him.

Pei Qian wanted Teacher Qiao to experience what ordinary players would-he had to play Repent and be Saved with zero knowledge and foundation in the game. In order to obtain that game experience, he had to get rid of these influences.

Qiao Liang would be served food and drinks in Fish-Catching Internet Cafe. The computers were of high quality, and there were unlimited alcohol and coffee. Teacher Qiao would have nothing to worry about.

Soon, they reached Fish-Catching Internet Cafe. This was the Fish-Catching Internet Cafe at Handong University. It was a ten-minute walk from Shenhua View. Of course, it was called the Handong University branch, but it was not that close to Handong University in reality. One would have to walk for at least fifteen minutes.

From the beginning—when they were selecting locations for the internet cafe, they avoided areas around universities.

However, this region was considered a busier area. This branch did not have a low turnover to begin with. After what happened with Chen Lei, the volume of business increased more. Now, it was only second to the flagship store, incurring a little loss.

For this very reason, Pei Qian had always neglected this branch. He rarely came over.

He was only visiting this time because he was leading Teacher Qiao here. Whenever Pei Qian felt sad in the future, he could come over and watch Teacher Qiao play the game. That would improve his mood for sure.

Pei Qian introduced Teacher Qiao to the branch manager of this Fish-Catching Internet Cafe. Then, he found a spot on the second floor. That would be Teacher Qiao’s work desk from here on out

Repent and be Saved’s beta version had already been installed on the computer. This version would be updated along with the research and development progress of the game. At the same time, it had simple time-recording functions. Each day, it would record the duration for which Teacher Qiao played the game. He had to fulfill the eight hours.

If he did not play enough one day, he could make up for it the next day. If he still could not make up for it, his pay would be docked.

There were also other things to note. At the moment, Repent and be Saved was still being developed. He could not reveal the plot of the game. That meant that Teacher Qiao could not record videos or discuss too much about the game with his fans.

There were not many customers in Fish-Catching Internet Cafe to begin with, and Teacher Qiao’s spot was located in a deserted corner. That ensured he would not be disturbed while he was playing the game.

Soon, everything was in order.

“Ask the branch manager to prepare your daily meals and drinks. Fish-Catching Internet Cafe adheres to hygiene standards, and the food and drinks would be safe to eat. You can rest assured.

“Try to get used to this environment. We have prepared a welcome feast for you tonight. We’ll pick you up when it’s time.

“If you have any questions about living here, please raise it to the branch manager.”

Pei Qian quickly resolved all of Teacher Qiao’s worries.

Qiao Liang was very moved. “Alright!”
