Chapter 691 - Warehouse Manager

Chapter 691: Warehouse Manager

Fang Han treated Hong Dali like a real friend.

These were indeed the two things Hong Dali needed to do as soon as possible. Become a resident of the Galaxy Alliance, so that he would not be treated as an unregistered person by the Galaxy Police in the future in case of any trouble. On Earth, unregistered persons had no rights and could not do anything. In the Galaxy, it was even worse as the rules were stricter.

The second thing was to protect Earth, from which Hong Dali was from. After all, anyone would be very concerned about their own parent star. If Earth encountered any problems, Hong Dali would be troubled too.

“Thank you, Big Brother Fang Han, for the reminder.” Hong Dali chuckled and said, “I have only just arrived and have not had the chance to get anything done. Hehe.”

“Well, I can see that.” Fang Han smiled and nodded, then said, “Oh right, Brother Dali, have you found a job here yet?”

“Eh? Find a job?” Hong Dali was confused. “Does everyone need to work here?”

He was a prodigal. How would he be a prodigal if he went to work?

“It’s like this.” Fang Han said slowly, “If you’re born here, there would not be so many restrictions and concerns. Whether you find a job or not depends on your mood. However, you just got here, so it is very important to get a job.

“The wage is not important. A little more or less does not matter. The important thing is, to make a life here, you need roots!

“In short, you have to join and become a part of this community as soon as possible. You must have your own network of people, you must have friends and colleagues. Otherwise, if anything were to happen to you, no one would be able to verify your identity, no one would be able to help gather information. It would be very troublesome for you. To put it bluntly, if you have no job and no social network, no one would know if you suddenly disappeared. You would be gone and no one would even realize it. If you do not appear within three months, and they find no trace of you, you will be treated as an unregistered person and have your residence permit revoked.”

After Fang Han explained, Hong Dali understood.

It meant that if a person did not work, he would be equivalent to a homeless beggar on Earth—A beggar who didn’t have his own circle of contacts could not be found by the police even if he went missing and it was reported. The police would have no leads, and what would the result be? He would be treated as a missing person and forgotten. Even if they found his body, there would be a new problem. Who could identify it?

“I see.” Hong Dali thought about it and said, “In that case, does Big Brother Fang have any good recommendations? Thinking about it, it may not be a bad idea to go to work occasionally—” As he spoke, he pointed to Ling Xiaoyi and the others. “Can I bring them all along?”

“God!” Tang Muxin palmed her face. “What kind of person brings lackeys to work…”

“Speaking of which, I actually do have a job that is suitable for you, Brother Dali.” Fang Han smiled and said, “My company is short of a warehouse manager. It’s an idle job with a monthly salary of two thousand Galaxy Dollars. Of course, I think the salary is not the focal point of Brother Dali’s attention. The important part is the networking. The warehouse is a place with a lot of human traffic. All the major departments of the company will need to go to the warehouse if they need anything, and if they want to take anything…” Here, Fang Han smiled. “They will need Brother Dali’s approval.”

Fang Han’s proposal for Hong Dali was actually really good.

The warehouse—all the resources and materials were stored there, so it was a relatively important department. Especially when they were in the Galaxy and everything was in Galaxy Dollars!

The other very important reason to be a warehouse manager was that, it was easy to make contact with a large number of people. Anyone who came to requisite materials or resources would need to speak to Hong Dali. A day or two might not make a difference, but within a month or two, Hong Dali would be able to build up a network of contacts easily.

People were social animals. It was only possible to fully integrate into this new community by interacting with others.

On Earth, people who studied abroad would have experienced something similar—without their own circle of contacts, it would be very inconvenient to get anything done.

“It’s that good?!” Hong Dali widened his eyes. “Big Brother Fang Han, you trust me so much?”

“Haha, Brother Dali, you don’t even want a martial arts secret manual worth millions of Galaxy Dollars.” Fang Han laughed. “What is there not to trust you with a mere warehouse?”

“Well, it will not be too bad to go have some fun at the warehouse.” Hong Dali rubbed his chin. “Is the warehouse area large? Can I play in it?”

“A total of forty-eight floors, six hundred thousand square meters.” Fang Han smiled and said, “Brother Dali will be responsible for the 31st to the 48th floor. Each floor is twelve thousand and five hundred square meters, which should be enough for you to use as you wish. You can probably fit your mecha inside.”

Damn! This was awesome! A forty-eight-storey warehouse building, of which the top eighteen floors were all under his control!

Wahahaha! It was probably big enough to fit the entire Chenhui Building if I had the opportunity to bring it here in the future!

“Great!” Hong Dali smiled and immediately agreed. “Are there any requirements?”

“Basically, no.” Fang Han thought for a moment, then relayed another instruction. “The only thing you need to make sure is not to bring down the building…”

Well, that probably won’t happen…

“Okay, that’s settled!”

Just as they were done talking about the important matters, the food had also arrived. The meal was very well prepared. Hong Dali and the other country bumpkins from Earth enjoyed the meal.

“Yes, this boneless dragon claw is delicious.” Hong Dali had dug enthusiastically into every dish. He had never been very particular about his image. “It’s much better than the dishes on our planet, hehe.”

“We can come often in the future if Brother Dali likes it.” Fang Han really did behave like a big brother. He cut the meat very elegantly and took a bite. Then, he asked, “Oh, speaking of which, how old are you this year, Brother Dali?”

“Me? Eighteen this year,” Hong Dali replied as he ate. “I just passed my eighteenth birthday.”

He said this casually, but Fang Han was stunned when he heard it. “You family allows you to gallivant around at the age of eighteen?”

“Yes.” Hong Dali looked at Ling Xiaoyi and the others. “I have so many lackeys with me. Don’t worry. There is no war here, what danger can there be? Right, Big Brother Fang Han, how old are you this year?”

“I am a few years older than you, twenty-six this year, hehe.” Fang Han smiled and said, “In that case, I will call you Little Brother Dali from now on.”

“Well, okay, no problem.” Hong Dali had always been polite, and it was a good thing to have a big brother who could take care of him. “Big Brother Fang, hehe.”

“Little Brother Dali, haha, good!”

Both the host and his guests enjoyed their meal. Fang Han was an extremely brotherly person and he was very concerned about Hong Dali’s daily necessities like clothes, food, shelter and transportation. The reason behind his concern was very simple. He felt that Hong Dali was not greedy, not lustful, and loyal. He was also intelligent. A worthy friend.

Hong Dali just felt that Fang Han was pleasing to the eye. Just like that, Hong Dali made his first friend after arriving at the Galaxy Alliance…

They finished their meal soon and Fang Han said, “Little Brother Dali, it is still early. Let’s go and settle your residence permit. It’s important.”

This was an important matter. Hong Dali nodded. “Yes, okay.”

They got back onto the spaceship and returned to the main city of Shenluo. Fang Han’s spacecraft was very fast, and it was not long before Hong Dali saw a huge steel building.

The building was more than 3,000 meters high. At a glance, it looked to have at least five hundred floors. This was the Registry Office of the Galaxy Alliance.

From the air, you could see a landing platform on every tenth floor of the building. There was an endless stream of spacecraft entering and leaving, and countless people going in and out. This was on a completely different level from Earth.

“We’re here. I know the foreman of the 336th floor here. We can save a lot of time and effort if we look for him.” Fang Han commanded the spacecraft to stop on the landing platform of the 330th floor as he spoke.

At the gate stood two guards who were nearly four meters tall. When they saw Fang Han, they smiled and said, “Young Master Fang Han, please come in quickly. Supervisor Hokoff has not gone off yet. He should be in the office.”

“Oh, thank you both for the reminder.” Fang Han smiled and said hello.

Hong Dali, who was next to Fang Han, snapped his fingers and said, “Reward, one hundred each.”

Lackey Li Jian came forward quickly. “This is a reward from our Young Master.”

After the two guards received their tip, they suddenly stood ramrod straight. The smiles on their faces were radiant. They nodded and bowed. “Thank you, Young Master!”

“This…” Fang Han did not know whether to cry or laugh. It seemed that his new little brother was really a… prodigal?

As everyone entered the hall, Hong Dali looked around. There were many people in the hall. Many of them were just here to apply for a residence permit, while others were here for other business. In just this one level, there were at least a few thousand people.

“There are so many people.” Tang Muxin stuck out her little tongue in surprise. “If we have to queue, I wonder how long it would take.”

“Hehe, you sometimes have to queue for three days before it’s your turn,” Xue Ji said with a smile. “Big Brother Fang has a relatively large network, it saves a lot of trouble.”

“Sister Xue Ji,” Tang Muxin whispered. “Are you Big Brother Fang’s girlfriend?”

“Me?” Xue Ji looked at Fang Han who was up front and whispered, “I am not, for now. Hehe, but I don’t dislike him.”

When she said that, Tang Muxin understood—Fang Han was probably wooing Xue Ji, but Xue Ji had not officially agreed yet. However, judging from Xue Ji’s attitude, it was probably a done deal…

While they were talking, everyone got onto the auto elevator disc. With a whosh, and not even two blinks later, they reached their destination—the 336th floor.

“It’s Young Master Fang.” A woman with a pair of furry cat ears smiled and said, “Is Young Master Fang here today to handle any business?”

“Oh, Miss Ranucake, is Mr. Hokoff there?” Fang Han pointed to Hong Dali and the other people behind him. “I have several friends who need to apply for a residence permit in the Galaxy Alliance, so I brought them here.”

“The supervisor is here. There is someone inside registering too. It should not take long.” Ranucake nodded. “Please wait for a while.”
