CHAPTER 66: CHAPTER 66: OFFICE PLANNING (VOTE AND FOLLOW PLEASE!) (REVISED)

The agency should mainly be divided into two parts:

One Exorcism Department, responsible for all exorcism-related matters and is the hands-on operational department.

Another Sales and Logistics Department, primarily in charge of initial client liaison from various channels, as well as the agency’s general logistical affairs.

The procurement of professional tools, such as exorcism equipment for the Exorcists, would be the responsibility of the Exorcism Department.

"Finance Department... we’ll see about hiring later! If there’s no suitable candidate, we’ll just outsource it for now!"

Twirling a ballpoint pen in his hand, Chu Feng was deep in thought.

"Administration Department... might as well set it as the supervising department of the Sales and Logistics Department, directly accountable to me!"

Chu Feng’s gaze finally rested on the first line of the notebook: the Exorcism Department.

In fact, the core of the entire Exorcism Agency was the Exorcism Department. Everything about the agency was to serve it.

Therefore, the rules of the Exorcism Department were naturally of utmost importance.

"I remember browsing the system store before; I seemed to have seen something. Let’s look for it!"

A spark of inspiration flashed through Chu Feng’s mind. He instantly recalled a useful functional item he had only glanced at before but now realized could be very helpful.

In the vast, seemingly endless system store, Chu Feng searched for an unknown amount of time before finally locating it again in an inconspicuous corner.

"This is it! The Spiritual Energy Value Detector."

Spiritual Energy Value Detector: The person being tested places both hands on the testing platform. After a scan by the device, the individual’s Spiritual Energy Value can be accurately detected.

Price: 1,000,000 US dollars.

"With this, it’ll be much easier! We can assess each person’s level within the agency based on their Spiritual Energy Value, and from there, decide the tasks they can take on and their compensation."

As for actual combat power exceeding the Spiritual Energy Value, this is a possibility among Low-Level Exorcists.

However, as an Exorcist’s Spiritual Power increases, their other basic Attributes will also passively increase. The only difference is which Attributes increase more.

Therefore, the higher the level, the more accurately Spiritual Energy Value represents combat power.

Of course, this excludes the enhancements from exorcism equipment.

After all, even an ordinary person with Chu Feng’s shotgun might be able to kill an Evil Spirit, though the probability is extremely low.

After thorough consideration, a new internal ranking plan for the Exorcism Agency was freshly drafted.

First Level Exorcist:

Spiritual Energy Value range: 0-5

Job Responsibility: Spirit Explorer; to confirm if a Bizarre event has occurred when client-provided evidence is insufficient.

Fixed Salary: 6,000 US dollars/month

Second Level Exorcist:

Spiritual Energy Value range: 5-10

Job Responsibility: Capable of resolving Bizarre events at the level of Bound Spirits and Wandering Spirits.

Salary: 60% of the client’s paid compensation

Third Level Exorcist:

Spiritual Energy Value range: 10-20

Job Responsibility: Capable of independently resolving Bound Spirit Level Bizarre events and can act as support in resolving Evil Spirit Level events.

Salary: 65% of the client’s paid compensation

Fourth Level Exorcist:

Spiritual Energy Value range: 20-50

Job Responsibility: The main combat force in a team tackling Evil Spirit Level Bizarre events.

Salary: 70% of the client’s paid compensation

...

Of course, for Exorcism Tasks involving multiple people, the specific compensation distribution would be negotiated among the Exorcists themselves.

Many Exorcists naturally wouldn’t agree to such a commission-based approach, so the next step was to define what the company could offer them.

The first, naturally, would be the export version of exorcism firearms from the system. Their exorcism efficacy needed no further explanation, being certainly many times stronger than salt-loaded rounds.

For the second, Chu Feng immediately thought of the Awakening Elixir previously rewarded by the system.

"We can offer the Low-Level and High-Level Awakening Elixirs as exclusive items of the agency, but they shouldn’t be available merely for purchase with money; that would be too cheap!"

After pondering for a moment, Chu Feng came up with an idea.

"In this way, Exorcists completing Exorcism Tasks of different levels can earn a varying number of Task Points. These points can then be used as one of the conditions for purchasing special items from the Exorcism Agency."

"Right, and we can also set purchase restrictions based on Exorcist level. This will greatly enhance the value and status of these special items."

Quickly, Chu Feng noted all of his ideas in his notebook.

Staring at his notes for a long time, Chu Feng suddenly realized they were still somewhat inadequate.

"Relying solely on the Awakening Elixir is too limiting. I should browse the system store again to see if there are other good items."

After spending half the day searching through the system store again, a perfect special item appeared before Chu Feng’s eyes.

Spirit Essence: After consumption and absorption by the body, it can increase the user’s Spiritual Energy Value.

Spirit Essence comes in three grades: Low-Level, Intermediate, and High-Level.

Low-Level Spirit Essence

Price: 1,000 US dollars

Description: Provides the smallest increase in Spiritual Energy Value, roughly one point per piece. An ordinary person requires a seven-day absorption period before consuming another.

Intermediate Spirit Essence

Price: 10,000 US dollars

Description: Increases Spiritual Energy Value by 5 points per piece. An ordinary person requires a one-month absorption period before consuming another.

High-Level Spirit Essence

Price: 100,000 US dollars

Description: Increases Spiritual Energy Value by 25 points per piece. An ordinary person requires a three-month absorption period before consuming another.

...

"Bound Spirit Level tasks will be 1 Task Point, Evil Spirit Level tasks 10 points, and Evil Spirit level tasks 100 points. Next, to establish the purchase conditions for special items..."

After another brainstorming session, the purchase conditions for the special items were also finalized!

Low-Level Awakening Elixir

Purchase Condition: Exorcists of this Agency

Price: 100,000,000 US dollars + 1,000 Task Points

High-Level Awakening Elixir

Purchase Condition: Exorcists of this Agency

Price: 1,000,000,000 US dollars + 10,000 Task Points

Low-Level Spirit Essence

Purchase Condition: First to Third Level Exorcists of this Agency

Price: 6,000 US dollars + 10 Task Points

Intermediate Spirit Essence

Purchase Condition: Fourth Level Exorcists and above of this Agency

Price: 50,000 US dollars + 100 Task Points

High-Level Spirit Essence

Purchase Condition: Sixth Level Exorcists and above of this Agency

Price: 1,000,000 US dollars + 1,000 Task Points

"Although this might be a bit of a grind for the Exorcists, well, I am the boss!" Chu Feng’s lips curled slightly.

"Right, and as compensation, the system’s exorcism firearms will be provided to them free of charge. The agency will only charge for ammunition!"

Chu Feng picked up his pen and swiftly wrote down a few more lines in his notebook.

"Finally, it’s almost complete!"

He casually tossed the pen aside, picked up the notebook to review his work, and after confirming there were no issues, carefully placed it back into the Storage Space.

It was already midnight. Having settled these matters, Chu Feng finally drifted off to sleep.

...

In the haze of semiconsciousness, a jarring voice reached Chu Feng’s ears.

"Hello, Chu Feng!"

"Who are you? How did you enter my dream?"

In a vast, white expanse, devoid of any material trace, only Chu Feng’s stern shout echoed.

"Darius. I have come specifically to offer you a choice."

"A choice? You cowardly, skulking rat! Do you think you’re worthy?"
