"It's not impossible for me to help..." Mu Rufeng rubbed his hands with a smile.
His meaning was clear: if you want help, you need to pay for the labor.
"I don't have any money on me right now. How about I give it to you after work, once I get paid?" An Lu said.
"No money? Is it paid daily?" Mu Rufeng asked, a little surprised.
"Yes, it's paid daily. Help me unload, and I'll give you fifty yuan after work," An Lu replied.
"Alright." Mu Rufeng slowly stood up.
"Thanks," An Lu said thankfully.
Mu Rufeng took a big gulp from the Scarlet Eyeball and then took out his phone to check the time.
It was 1:40, meaning he had only slept for half an hour before An Lu woke him up.
Immediately, Mu Rufeng followed An Lu into the truck.
He glanced at the cargo inside, and there was still three-quarters of it left. He knew this truck had arrived exactly at 1:00.
Forty minutes had passed, and An Lu had only unloaded a quarter.
It was no wonder An Lu had come to ask Mu Rufeng for help.
At An Lu's speed, he definitely wouldn't be able to finish unloading in two hours.
"Your unloading speed is so slow, only a quarter unloaded in forty minutes?" Mu Rufeng said.
"Why aren't you affected?" An Lu didn't answer, but instead looked extremely surprised.
The inside of the truck wasn't very clear at the moment, shrouded in a layer of hazy fog.
Even for An Lu to maintain his clarity here, he needed to expend ghost energy.
The blood on the ground wasn't much, only up to his ankles, but it was exceptionally viscous, requiring a lot of effort with every step.
Precisely because of this, An Lu's unloading speed was so slow.
All these signs indicated that the driver of this truck was very powerful.
Seeing Mu Rufeng seemingly unaffected, he was naturally extremely shocked.
"Is this very strange? By the way, did the driver ask you for a bribe?" Mu Rufeng suddenly inquired.
An Lu was silent for a moment before slowly replying, "Yes."
"How much?" Mu Rufeng asked again.
This time, An Lu didn't answer, merely shaking his head.
"You won't say? Fine, then I'm leaving." Mu Rufeng turned, about to leave.
"Hey, hey, hey, wait. He asked me for a hundred yuan," An Lu finally blurted out.
"A hundred yuan, huh. Alright, let's start unloading."
Mu Rufeng pouted and said nothing, immediately starting to unload.
Seeing this, An Lu also stopped talking and immediately came forward, standing on the left side. His tentacles waved as he began to unload.
However, because An Lu was constantly affected, his unloading speed was slow.
Furthermore, Mu Rufeng's movements were quite large when unloading, nearly causing the cargo to topple.
Mu Rufeng immediately frowned and said, "You go stand to the side. You just be responsible for pulling the goods and wrapping them with film. I'll do the unloading."
"Okay." An Lu nodded in agreement.
He was even hoping for this.
Because if he asked someone else for help, and they couldn't finish unloading within two hours, the driver would definitely target Mu Rufeng, the living person, first.
And he could seize the opportunity to escape.
Then, some might ask, wouldn't it be fine to just hide in the warehouse and wait for the two hours to pass? Wouldn't the driver be unable to do anything to him?
Of course not. As long as the unloading time exceeded the limit, the driver could leave the truck and come after you. Even if a fight broke out in the warehouse, it wouldn't violate the rules.
Without An Lu's interference, Mu Rufeng's unloading speed greatly increased.
Even though the fog in the carriage became denser and the blood on the ground more viscous, it didn't affect Mu Rufeng at all.
However, An Lu, who was wrapping the goods and pulling them, was affected.
He felt completely groggy, and his movements when pulling the goods were sluggish.
Mu Rufeng let him be and directly placed two boards to start unloading.
In thirty minutes, Mu Rufeng finally finished unloading the cargo.
He still couldn't extort anything from this driver.
It was simply because this driver was too cunning. He had actually removed all the attributes of the fog except for obscuring vision.
This situation greatly reduced Mu Rufeng's unloading speed.
Otherwise, Mu Rufeng could have definitely finished unloading the goods within an hour.
After this truckload was unloaded, An Lu's attitude changed completely, and he completely ignored Mu Rufeng.
Mu Rufeng couldn't be bothered to pay attention either. He directly returned to his own truck and unloaded the remaining instant noodles.
Time flew by, and it was already six in the evening.
Ring ring ring~~~!
The harsh ringing echoed throughout the Scarlet Logistics Park.
It was time to get off work.
Mu Rufeng, who had been drowsily dozing on the ground, suddenly woke up and stood up immediately.
"Finally off work, An Lu, where's my money?" Mu Rufeng walked directly to An Lu and said.
An Lu shot Mu Rufeng a glare and said coldly, "Didn't I tell you? I'll give it to you when I get paid. Wait here, Supervisor Wang will be here soon."
"Oh my, finally off work. My back and legs are sore from being in the drawer."
A wisp of black smoke emerged from the desk drawer, eventually transforming into Sister Chunni's appearance.
"Little Mu, do you want to come to my dorm tonight? I'll make you something delicious," Sister Chunni teased upon seeing Mu Rufeng.
"Sister Chunni, I don't really have an appetite for your cooking. I'll just go to the cafeteria and find a vending machine myself," Mu Rufeng said with a smile.
"Then you'll miss out on a treat," a hint of disappointment flashed in Sister Chunni's eyes.
A moment later, Wang Kun walked out from inside the warehouse.
Wang Kun first glanced at Mu Rufeng, his gaze a little peculiar.
He clearly found Mu Rufeng's bare upper body a bit...
"Li Chunni, here's your salary. You can clock out now." Wang Kun took out a fifty-yuan bill.
"Thank you, Supervisor Wang." Li Chunni took the bill and turned to leave without any hesitation.
Then, Wang Kun turned his attention to An Lu.
"An Lu, your base salary is 50 yuan. You unloaded four trucks, earning a commission of 40 yuan. However, since you had Mu Rufeng help you, you need to split the commission for this truckload with him."
"Your salary for today is eighty yuan." Wang Kun took out eighty yuan and handed it to An Lu.
"Thank you, Supervisor Wang." An Lu also said his thanks and quickly took the money.
Just as Wang Kun was about to speak, Mu Rufeng suddenly snatched a fifty-yuan bill from An Lu's hand.
"Fifty yuan, that's what we agreed on," Mu Rufeng said.
"We agreed on it." An Lu forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and slowly uttered a few words.
Then, without looking back, he turned and left.
"Heh heh, kid, you made quite a bit today."
"Mu Rufeng, since you're a temporary worker, your base salary is 25 yuan. You unloaded six trucks (including An Lu's truck), earning a commission of sixty yuan."
"As you helped An Lu unload one truckload, you get an additional bonus commission of ten yuan."
"You unloaded six trucks today, making you an Excellent Employee in the Liquor Warehouse, with an additional bonus of twenty yuan."
"Your total salary for today is 115 yuan." Wang Kun took out the bills and handed them to Mu Rufeng.
