Before dawn, Xiang Wentian got up. However, this place was not like Sandao Town or a school. There was a quiet place for him to review his daily homework. He quietly got up and went downstairs. When he saw the lady boss cleaning the shop, he politely nodded and greeted her.

He didn't dare to go too far. He was not familiar with the place since he had just arrived. It would be a joke if he went astray on the way back. After walking around, he didn't find a quiet place for him to practice his Kung Fu, so he had to come back and bring a few steamed buns for breakfast.

The two of them drank the boiled water in the room and ate the steamed buns. Then, he told Goldie about the news he had heard from the shop owner yesterday. He said that they had to rely on themselves to conquer the world now. There was no one else they could rely on. After thinking about it, they first had to find something to do if they wanted to stand in Shenzhou. They had to satisfy their hunger and put everything else aside.

At this time, the blonde had no idea what to do. He was waiting for his boss's opinion. Seeing that the uncle he had been counting on was gone, he couldn't help but cry,"Boss, we're not familiar with this place. What if, what if, what should we do? It can't be that we can't go home, right?”

The last part of the "if" wasn't pleasant to hear. The blonde didn't dare to say it out loud, but Xiang Wentian could hear it. He felt helpless in his heart, but he couldn't help but sneer. He looked at the blonde quietly and smiled."Don't tell me you're thinking of going home now?”

His tone was calm, but the yellow-haired man could see a sneer and disdain in his eyes. If Goldie went back like this, it would be hard for him to stay in Sandao Town. Lu Laosan alone would not let him off, let alone his brothers. They would definitely look down on him.

The blonde probably thought of the consequences of going back like this. He twisted his neck and said,"Who said that? Boss, if you don't go home, I, I won't go home either! Blondie would follow his boss for the rest of his life, fight, conquer the world.”

The last three words did not have the same energy as the beginning, and his voice unconsciously became an octave lower. Xiang Wentian was well aware of this and said encouragingly,"With your words, brother, remember that one day, we will return home naked!”

The two of them let their boss, Xiang Wentian, make the decision. They went to the street to find an agency that could introduce them to jobs. This was what he had read in a book. Xiang Wentian knew that the best place to find a job in a city was to go to the employment agency in the city. There would be jobs suitable for him to choose from, although he would need to spend some money.

However, for the two young men who had come to Shenzhou, it was not easy to find such a place. They did not even dare to walk carelessly on the left and right turns of the road, let alone find an employment agency that was not even marked on the map. Fortunately, the streets were not that clean, and the city had not been beautified yet. The two of them walked around and looked around, and they really found something. Perhaps the heavens had eyes. Wasn't there a saying that said," The heavens won't starve the sparrows to death?"

On both sides of the street, there were some ointment advertisements that were pasted by unknown people. Those free advertisements on the streets had the information they needed. As for whether the information on them was true, there was no way to verify it. Moreover, at this time, they did not consider the need to verify the authenticity of the information. An employment agency was pasted on a telephone pole, clearly indicating the route to get there. With the map in hand, Xiang Wentian and Goldie found the employment agency on a quiet street without much difficulty.

This shop was called the Enthusiastic Job Agency. It was probably about the same size as the hotel they were staying in. The only thing that was eye-catching was the signboard in front of the door. It could still be seen from afar. There was a desk in the back of the room, and behind the desk sat an elderly woman who was reading the newspaper with presbyopic glasses. There was a small door on the left, and there seemed to be another room inside. The door was half closed.

Seeing the two of them come in, the old woman wearing presbyopic glasses hurriedly stood up. She first looked at the two of them for a while, as if she couldn't see their faces clearly for a moment, then said,"Gentlemen, you must be looking for a job, right?”

Xiang Wentian was wearing a pair of faux leather sandals from home, the kind that cost more than ten yuan. Anyone with a discerning eye would know what kind of person he was. His pants were made of fine fabric, and his shirt was not much better. A short-sleeved shirt made of fine fabric. After walking for a long distance, he had already clung tightly to his back and refused to leave.

The old woman was sizing them up, and Xiang Wentian was also sizing them up under the bright sun. From the looks of it, this was a kind-looking old man. His broad face revealed the simplicity of a rural person. His white hair told him that the old man had experienced a lot of hardships. An old man would not lie. His slightly tanned skin reminded Xiang Wentian that he could trust the old man in front of him. The people who could make people feel at ease the most when they traveled the world were the common people. They were such good young people who came from the countryside.

Although he had a few previous experiences, Xiang Wentian still couldn't be on guard against this trustworthy old man. He said bluntly,"Yes, aunty, we just came to Shenzhou and want to find a job.”

Perhaps the person inside heard him. The door creaked and a young girl came out. She said,"Are you looking for a job? Please come in, come inside, and I can introduce you both to jobs that will make both of you very satisfied. Auntie Hu, get me two cups of tea.”

He looked at the person who had come. She had very fashionable curly hair that draped over her shoulders, reflecting the sunlight and dazzling eyes. Although her oval face was very tender, it seemed that she was more experienced in society. She looked at the old woman with some doubt. The old woman quickly said,"Oh, this is Mei Hong, the manager of the warm-hearted employment agency. You can call her Manager Mei. She will introduce you to a good job.”

"Although our warm-hearted employment agency isn't big, we have everything we need. As long as it's an intermediary related to work, marriage, and real estate, we can do it, and we will do our best. I guarantee that both of you will be satisfied." The woman named Mei Hong then casually introduced the role of the warm-hearted employment agency, without the slightest suspicion of being a queen selling melons.

Xiang Wentian and Mei Hong followed Mei Hong into the room. This room seemed to be slightly bigger than the outside. There was a desk at the back wall, and the surrounding walls were filled with job introductions, marriage introductions, and real estate information. Looking at this, Xiang Wentian felt slightly relieved. It seemed that he and Goldie had come to the right place. This was the place to look for a job. Otherwise, with the two of them being unfamiliar with this place, if they went to the sky to look for a job, wouldn't they be waiting to pack up and go back to their hometown?
