Signing In At The Civil Affairs Bureau, I Was Rewarded With A Gorgeous Wife

After returning to the Magic Capital, Song Yun began handling several business affairs that the professional managers couldn't decide on.

Therefore, the seemingly busy Song Yun once again found himself with some free time.

"Honey~ why isn't the jade you sent yet done~"

Ye Qingqing asked tenderly while lying on Song Yun's chest.

Looking down, Song Yun kissed his wife's cheek and said with a chuckle, "Little enchantress, I'll get up in a bit and go rush them myself."

"Okay~ then I won't join you~ There's some business at the company that I need to attend to."

"Then you'd better get up quickly."

With a mischievous smile, Song Yun slapped Ye Qingqing's bottom and teased, "If you keep lazing in bed, I might have to..."

"I'm up! I'm up!"

Pouting her lips indignantly, Ye Qingqing muttered that all her sisters complained about their husbands not being up to par, yet Song Yun was just too strong! She almost couldn't take it anymore, and she wondered if his body could even handle it!

After eating breakfast, Song Yun drove Ye Qingqing to her company, then turned the car towards Lìyùxuan.

The main store of Lìyùxuan was near the Temple of the City Gods. Visiting again, Song Yun used his Perspective Eyes to scan the raw stones at the roadside stalls, but unfortunately, most of them were just ordinary rocks.

"Ding! Detecting the host is at the Magic Capital's Temple of the City Gods, would you like to enter the temple to offer incense?"

"???"

What kind of tricky operation was System Dad pulling now, did it somehow relate to fantasy? We're youth living under the red flag in the new era!

But since the system asked, there must be a generous reward awaiting him.

Stroking his chin, Song Yun clicked on the "Yes" button.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for accepting the mission, please enter the Temple of the City Gods within 30 minutes and light a stick of incense at the main hall!"

Song Yun started walking towards the Temple of the City Gods, where many people had set up stalls selling various offerings and incense.

Song Yun spent 100 yuan to buy a stick of sandalwood incense that looked quite thick.

Upon entering the temple, the bronze cauldron at the entrance of the main hall was already filled with incense sticks, and the faithful men and women were praying sincerely with their hands clasped together.

Song Yun lit the incense with his lighter and inserted it into the cauldron, but the system did not settle the mission—what was going on???

"System, did I do something wrong?"

An answer for low intelligence: System, are you malfunctioning?

An answer for high intelligence: System, what did I do wrong?

It must be said that Song Yun had perfectly integrated the art of language into his life.

"Ding! Please read the mission details carefully before proceeding!"

"Enter the Temple of the City Gods within 30 minutes, and then at the main hall... wait a second... light incense in the main hall?"

Song Yun stood still, craning his neck to look inside the hall, which was filled with more than a dozen meditation cushions for kneeling and worship.

Indeed, there was no censer in sight.

Actually... there really was one, a small porcelain burner placed before the City God's idol, with three sticks of incense, looking very solemn.

"Goodness, System Dad really knows how to make trouble..."

Muttering to himself, Song Yun turned around and spent a few hundred yuan more to buy some smaller sandalwood incense sticks.

He was about to place the lit incense into the censer in the main hall when the temple priest, who was originally beaming, quickly came over to stop him with a change of expression.

"Young friend, if you wish to make an offering, you may do so outside the hall at your leisure, only I am permitted to replace them inside."

"This..."

Song Yun's face wore a bitter expression. He didn't want to be involved in such matters, but what could he do when System Dad was pushing him?

"System, can we both take a step back? If I don't light incense in the main hall, you cut my reward in half..."

"Ding! There are 15 minutes left to complete the mission, and if not completed, great terror awaits the host!"

"...Damn... what great terror, as if I could encounter an unknown creature?!"

But the system had always been true to its word, and Song Yun really feared that one night, as he cuddled with his wife in bed, there would suddenly be some movement in the covers.

"Hello, if I must offer incense inside the main hall, what would be the price? Like, offering some money for the incense oil or something?"

Upon hearing this, the temple keeper's face turned dark. Are you bribing me right in front of the City God?!

This is just like in a company, where a supplier says to a salesperson in front of the senior management, "Give me extra money, and I'll kickback to you." It's the same thing!

Guess what that executive would do if they found out!

"Not a chance! I hope, young friend, you won't cause trouble here, or else I will have to have someone throw you out!"

"Sigh, would a hundred thousand work?"

"You're trampling on my integrity!"

"Five hundred thousand!"

"I am a temple keeper! How can you speak such filthy words in front of the City God!"

"One million!"

"..."

"One and a half million!"

"Wait, wait, wait... just give me a moment to breathe..."

The temple keeper looked at Song Yun strangely. He dealt with millions of people coming and going every day, and this was the first time he heard of someone insisting on spending a lot of money to offer incense inside the hall... this young man was either a real big shot or had issues in his head!

"Really, One and a half million?"

"Really! I can arrange for someone to transfer the money to you right away. Consider it my tribute to the City God!"

"You truly are a devout believer!"

The temple keeper sighed and said, "Since that's the case, I won't stop you. After all, the City God Temple also needs some renovation, and all that requires funds. If it weren't for your sponsorship, this matter might be delayed indefinitely."

"Right, right, so can I offer the incense now?"

"What do you think?"

"Alright..."

Song Yun called the CFO of Mountains and Waters Corporation and asked him to sponsor the City God Temple with one and a half million on behalf of the company.

The CFO was utterly baffled; the big boss didn't seem to believe in anything...

But as a subordinate, you must follow the boss's orders, and even listen carefully. Not three minutes had passed when a large sum of money was transferred. The temple keeper's phone chimed, and upon seeing the string of zeros, he realized that the young man in front of him was not joking.

"Please!"

Song Yun shook his head and lit the incense in the incense burner inside the hall.

The system's voice sounded once more.

"Ding! Congratulations, host, for completing this mission. 'Antique Appraisal' is added to the functions of Perspective Eyes!"

"???"

What was this? He'd paid such a hefty price just to get this?

Song Yun activated Perspective Eyes, looking around at the objects within the City God Temple and was amazed to find that these items displayed their age!

For instance, the small incense burner in front of the City God, when converted to its historical period, turned out to be an artifact from the Song Dynasty, worth a fortune!

"May I know your name, young friend? Once I've renovated the City God Temple, I'll certainly engrave your name on the stone tablet at the entrance."

Hearing the temple keeper's words, Song Yun touched his nose and asked in a low voice, "Are you really planning to renovate?"

"What else?"

The temple keeper suddenly thought of something and said angrily, suppressing his rage, "Don't tell me, young friend, that you think I would embezzle the funds? You are entirely welcome to send someone to oversee my spending of this money!"

"No, no, it's just that people as pure as you are getting so rare nowadays!"

Song Yun said with a sigh, "Since that's the case, make the renovations nicer. If more money is needed, ask the person I'm in contact with; we're not short on cash!"
