Start With Contracting Sprites Chapter 204 – Time to Recruit An Assistant (Second Update)

Chapter 204: Time to Recruit An Assistant (Second Update)

Outside the laboratory building, at the gate.

A Sprite Trainer stood guard here with a Mountain Moving Ape. He reached out and stopped Su Hao.

“This is a private laboratory. You can’t enter without permission from the owner.”

He saw the Sprite Trainer in front of him looking at him with a wary gaze.

He…

Without saying a word, he picked up his cell phone and made a call.

“Brother Lu, I’m at the entrance of the laboratory.”

Lupin was the person in charge of supervising the construction of the laboratory that Master Yao had introduced to him.

During the construction of the laboratory, Su Hao and Lupin usually contacted each other over the phone. They weren’t strangers.

Not long after he hung up, Lupin emerged from the lab building in a suit and greeted him warmly.

“Brother Su, you’re finally here. Come with me, I’ll introduce you to the various areas of the laboratory.”

The two of them walked in.

The Sprite Trainer guarding the door was confused for a while, before he turned around a little stiffly, looked at another person, and asked,

“That person’s surname was Su. Could he be the owner of the laboratory?”

“What the f*ck! I heard that only high-level Sprite Cultivators can build private laboratories…”

“He, he, he… Could it be that he was born with a child’s face?!”

…

The main body of the laboratory was a five-storey building, not considered big.

However, the building was silver in color. The neatly arranged glass windows reflected the sunlight. Outside the building, there was another three-meter-high wall surrounding it. It still looked very lavish.

Lupin told him, “The first floor is the testing area, with large facilities such as the Unique Power Test Machine, speed track, and so on that need to be stabilized on the ground.”

“There are reception areas and lounges on the second floor. The reception areas are mainly used to receive clients. For example, you’ve developed a certain product. If you want to sell it, you need to contact some relevant companies… I don’t need to say anything about the lounge area. Although it’s not big, there are basically all kinds of alcohol and billiards there.”

“The third floor is the dormitory and office area.”

“The last four and five floors are where the experiment area is.”

The elevator doors opened on both sides, and Su Hao arrived at the fifth floor.

The corridor of the whole floor was on the outside, in a “back” shape, wrapping the laboratory inside.

“Fingerprints, irises, passwords, and other unlocking methods are used here. They haven’t been activated yet. I’ll tell you in detail after the tour is over.”

Su Hao walked around. He had to admit that it was awesome.

Compared to his previous consultation office, the Sprite Care House in An City had a similar scale, but the facilities were more complete and advanced. Its level was countless streets above the Sprite Care House!

Many experiments that he only knew the theory of, the ideas in his mind, and a bit of “inspiration” that came out of his brain from time to time could be realized here.

Such an awesome laboratory… would be his in the future!

So he’s really… awesome!

…

It took Su Hao dozens of minutes to go from the fifth floor to the first floor. He stopped, took a closer look, and listened to Lupin introduce the various equipment.

There were a lot of equipment, their activation, maintenance, and things to take note of. Even if there was an instruction manual, he had to get to the bottom of it.

He also instructed Butterfly to listen carefully together.

After all, it was all money.

He might have heard wrongly or forgotten.

But Butterfly wouldn’t.

Bringing along research assistant Butterfly was indeed a wise decision.

…

After coming out of the laboratory building, Su Hao and Lupin walked towards the back.

“Apart from the main building, the whole laboratory is a sprite cultivation area.”

Compared to the laboratory building, the Sprite Cultivation Area occupied a larger area. It was more than ten mu, the size of a football field.

There were large amounts of bamboo forests in the cultivation area.

There was a small mound, and a lake under the mound…

Outside, hard and thick walls surrounded them. The walls were four meters tall, and there was an electric net above them.

It was almost a miniaturized free-ranging center.

“It’s hard to imagine that these were all built within two months.” Su Hao exclaimed.

Lupin smiled and said, “In this era, whether it’s digging the ground or transplanting trees, everything has become very easy with the help of sprites. The Earth and Wood Construction Team is no joke.”

“Besides, the small laboratory has a detailed set of design standards in Dragon Nation. We can just build it according to the blueprint.”

He pointed at the cultivation area in front of him. “In a few days, that batch of Wood Mantis will be shipped over. By then, you’ll be busy. It’s best to recruit one or two students and a few ordinary employees.”

“Students?”

“You have to know that you’re already a high-level Sprite Cultivator. It’s very normal for you to take in disciples at this level. Those who are capable come first,” he said. “There’s no need to be very formal. As long as you write ‘high-level Sprite Cultivator’ points in the recruitment conditions, believe it or not, even if they don’t get paid, there will still be many Sprite Cultivators who would submit their resumes.”

So that was it.

Su Hao felt that it made sense.

He had still underestimated how awesome he was.

Lupin added, “Apart from employees, labs have to be guarded. Although your lab hasn’t been activated and there’s no research, the equipment in the building alone is worth a lot of money.”

“Ordinary security guards aren’t up to the task of guarding the laboratory. Sprite Trainers are needed, preferably elite-level ones.”

“Right now, the Sprite Trainers guarding outside are from the construction team. I can only let them stay for five more days. You have to settle the situation here before leaving.”

…

Su Hao was very busy.

He was busy comparing instructions and familiarizing himself with various instruments and equipment.

“It’s too difficult.”

On the first day he owned his own laboratory, Su Hao was stumped.

He had passed the Sprite Cultivator assessment.

Sprite cultivation was easy.

It was also a piece of cake for him to win the championship of the Sprite Cultivator Cup and shock all the masters.

But…

It was stumped by the devices.

“How do I use this? Gosh! Is the manual for humans to read?!”

He searched for Butterfly.

After not finding it, he sighed again. “It’s just a baby less than two years old, how can it possibly use these complex devices? Indeed… I still have to hire a Sprite Cultivator assistant as soon as possible.”

It wasn’t difficult to reason with these devices and equipment.

Sprite Cultivators from Sprite Universities usually knew how to use them.

But…

Su Hao didn’t go to the Sprite Cultivation specialization!

Even if he majored in Sprite Cultivation after the end of the Sprite Cultivator Cup, it was basically just a title.

He didn’t attend classes.

Master Yao and the others obviously didn’t think that he, Su Hao, an 18-year-old high-level Sprite Cultivator, the founder of spirit power techniques… didn’t know how to use those ordinary devices?

Isn’t that implausible!?

…

Su Hao was a man of his words. Since he didn’t know how to use it, then… he did not.

He decisively released the recruitment advertisement.

“Ordinary employees don’t need to be paid very high salaries, so do Sprite Cultivators. After all, we are providing the best treatment conditions…”

After Su Hao listed a few requests, he released hiring information on the relevant platforms.

He waited patiently.

When everyone was ready, he could officially start work.

The initial goal was to earn 200 million yuan!

He would earn back the capital first.

…

On the third day after taking over the laboratory, the ten Wood Mantis sponsored by Master Lu were delivered.

They were reared in the cultivation area.

With Butterflye looking after them, they were fed some jade powder every day, then released some pressure to force the Wood Mantis to train, to prevent them from becoming fat one by one.

“Thanks to my assistant, Butterfly, I am able to free up my hands to handle the recruitment.”

On the fifth day, the Sprite Trainers guarding the door also left. The whole laboratory became empty.

He was alone.

He urgently needed manpower to fill in the positions.

He opened the website of the platform and found the column submitted by official Sprite Cultivators.

Suddenly, he felt a little expectant and nervous.

It was like the anticipation of facing an unknown card before ten consecutive draws.

After a pause, Su Hao opened the column and saw…

“There are actually 36 elementary-level Sprite Cultivators!”
