Chapter 153: Establishing a Game Club

"Let's wait a bit longer."

Xu Yaning thought for a moment and said, feeling somewhat anxious inside.

Ever since she returned from the Garment factory, there had been no news from them.

If it weren't for the fact that she had already signed the employment contract, she would have thought she had failed the interview again.

Moreover, this company actually paid salaries in advance, which was quite unexpected.

Although she had never worked before, she knew that companies usually paid salaries at the end of the month or sometime the following month, almost always withholding a few days' wages.

This Garment factory not only didn't withhold wages but actually paid them in advance.

She hadn't worked a full month by the end of the month, but they gave her the full attendance bonus. Plus, with the subsidies, after deducting social insurance and personal income tax, her take-home pay was actually over 5,000.

This was simply unimaginable to her.

Hearing Xu Yaning's words, the others in the dormitory calmed down a little.

Just like that, they waited for a while until Xu Yaning's phone finally rang.

Seeing that it was a call from Assistant Shen, she quickly answered it.

"Hello, Assistant Shen, is there any news?"

Xu Yaning asked, feeling a bit nervous.

"Oh, the studio prepared for you is currently under renovation, which will take about a month. Therefore, for this month, you will need to work from home."

"However, President Chen has also indicated that for this month, you will be given a food subsidy of 1,500, so you don't need to worry."

Listening to Assistant Shen's response, Xu Yaning's expression was somewhat complicated.

Her intention in calling was to ask when they could start working.

But she never expected

that Assistant Shen would inform them to work from home for a month and even give them a 1,500 food subsidy.

This…

"Sister Yaning, what exactly happened?"

Seeing Xu Yaning just standing there stunned after hanging up the phone, Zhou Yu and the others

immediately became anxious.

Could it be that the Garment factory had changed its mind and didn't intend to hire them?

Hearing their cries, Xu Yaning gradually came to her senses. Looking at their anxious expressions, she began to explain.

"It's nothing; it's just that the studio prepared for us needs renovation, so we need to work from home for a month. At the same time, they will give us a 1,500 food subsidy."

"Ah…"

Hearing this, the three of them, including Zhou Yu, opened their mouths in shock.

Working from home was one thing, but they were actually given a 1,500 food subsidy too.

This company is just too good.

"Alright, that's the situation. The Garment factory didn't notify us to go to work because the studio needs renovation, so everyone shouldn't overthink it."

"However, since we are working from home, we must be self-disciplined. Later, I will make a schedule, and starting today, everyone will work strictly according to the schedule. Don't slack off just because we are working from home."

"This job gives us such high compensation and allows us to create freely according to our own concepts; we must cherish it."

Xu Yaning stood up and looked at everyone in the room with a serious expression.

"Don't worry, Sister Yaning, we understand."

"Exactly, we will definitely be able to design good clothing that the public will like."

"I heard a classmate in the next dorm found a place that only pays them 3,000 a month for an internship, and the social insurance doesn't kick in until after three months, and there's no housing fund either. Since our company has given us such generous compensation, if we don't cherish it, wouldn't we be fools?"

The three roommates spoke up one after another, each of their faces brimming with excited smiles.

Xu Yaning also started to smile.

"Then let's work hard together to build the best clothing brand for ourselves and for the company."

…

At night,

inside a villa,

Chen Cong looked at the Dragon Slaying Set on his game character. After such a long time, he had finally collected the entire set.

However, the only pity was that he couldn't find that shill named Xue Luo.

During the time he was close to collecting the Dragon Slaying Set, he had always had his guild members keep an eye on Xue Luo's ID.

He even posted a bounty in the world chat.

Unfortunately, that shill never appeared again.

Instead, a batch of fake Xue Luos appeared, wanting to team up with others to scam the bounty from him.

But they were all sent away by his Dragon Slaying Saber.

Sigh!

From now on, in this Tianlong, I, Chen Cong, have no rivals.

At this moment, he had finally found the pleasure of dominating the game once again.

Moreover, today the game announcement updated, actually announcing that the clothing compensation for noble players was already in production, and he didn't know how those outfits would turn out.

Chen Cong couldn't help but feel a bit expectant.

Suddenly,

messages in the guild chat room started flashing rapidly.

Confused, he opened the chat interface.

"Damn, the BOSS was snatched by those guys from 'Lingyange'."

"Those guys from Lingyange were camping there for half a day just to land the final blow. I was really careless."

"Damn it, how annoying!"

Was the BOSS snatched?

This Lingyange really knows how to pick their timing, striking only when he wasn't around.

Just as he was preparing to go over and get revenge, his phone suddenly rang.

Du Ziteng?

Is this guy calling to mock him after snatching the BOSS?

He snorted coldly in his heart and answered the call.

"Du Ziteng, what, after snatching the BOSS, are you calling to mock me?"

"I'm not that bored. I'm calling you to discuss some serious business."

Du Ziteng's voice came from the phone, his tone very serious.

Chen Cong also put away his playful expression and asked.

"What is it? Go ahead."

"I want to establish a game club and would like to invite you to join."

Chen Cong was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, then spoke.

"Why invite me?"

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line before a voice came through.

"Because we are the same kind of people. Although we have endless money, it was all earned by our parents. Don't you want to prove yourself? Besides, we both like games, and a game club is a very good choice."

Chen Cong's eyes flickered. Du Ziteng was right; one always has to prove oneself, right?

"Alright, sure. What's the club's name?"

"Lingyange."

"No, it should be called Hao Shangtian."

The two haggled for a while, and finally compromised, each taking one character from their own names.

The final name was: Tiange Game Club.

"What are your plans?"

After settling on the name, Chen Cong asked.

"I plan to start with Tianlong. I did a survey on the forum and found that those who have played Tianlong have very good things to say about it. I think this game, Tianlong, has the potential to become a huge hit."

"Also, a couple of days ago, that game blogger named Zhou Nan organized an online tournament for his followers, and I heard the response was very good."

"I want to organize a larger offline tournament. Currently, there are six classes released in Tianlong. We can hold 1v1 arena matches for the same class, and the top five of each class can win prize money. This way, it can increase the players' enthusiasm to participate and also boost the club's popularity in the early stages."

"As for how much the prize money will be, I haven't decided yet. We can discuss the details when we meet later."
