Alayna sent her employees off before driving back to her house. When she arrived, the kids were busy watching some T.V and this was better than seeing them cultivating 24/7.
"Mommy, you are back!" Merita excitedly yelled as soon as Alayna entered the house.
Alayna saw her kids, she was so happy a happy smile showed on her face, "how have you been kids?"
Hugging Merita in her arms while her face looked at Neal who acted more mature and like an adult, and wasn’t fond of throwing himself in her arms calmly.
"We are doing okay. How was work?" Neal asked as he looked at her.
Smiling brightly at the kids she responded, "umm, work was great and it couldn’t be better."
How can she not be happy?
With so many rewards awaiting her, life was simply too beautiful for her. she has everything she could ask for by her side, and she was only grateful.
"This is great then."
Alayna went to wash up first and changed into a fresh and clean pair of clothes before going to the kitchen to cook some dinner. With Merita’s help, dinner was cooked very fast and the family of three ate together.
It was very harmonious and after spending many days without eating together, each one of them cherished this moment deep down in their hearts.
Alayna didn’t immediately go to her room to check the rewards but spent some time with the kids. She talked about so many things and the kids listened.
The kids enjoy listening to her a lot and Alayna loves the attention a lot. To be with someone by your side that relies on you, was a very good thing.
Only around nine did she go to bed. The kids were feeling too energetic and wanted to watch some shows, and she has some important things to do.
After locking herself in her bedroom, she sat on the bed and pulled up the system.
[Main mission is completed; REWARD: Supermarket.]
[Congratulations host on completing the task. You will be rewarded with an upgrade of the current convenience store to a level 1 supermarket. It’s going to take one full day for the upgrade so the shop will be closed tomorrow.]
[Congratulations host on completing the task. The host has been personally rewarded with a cultivation technique and a breakthrough pill.]
[Congratulations host on completing the task. The employee benefits can be adjusted and the host can now come up with three employee benefits. Also, the host has been promoted to manager, you no longer need to man up the shop personally.]
To be honest the rewards were so good that Alayna was rolling on the bed. She simply thought that she will be getting to the supermarket only but to get an off day in advance like this was good news to her.
And a breakthrough pill, who didn’t want something this good to happen to them?
Alayna didn’t waste her time and popped the pill in her mouth. She regulated her spiritual energy and let the pill do its thing. As she had gotten used to the process, it didn’t take long before the pill’s efficacy started to take effect.
Alayna sweated a lot as she felt that barrier getting opened. It wasn’t as bad as it used to be before, it was actually very smooth and after a couple of hours, Alayna finally broke through to level 5 which was two levels higher than her old level.
With a smile on her face, she left the bed and went to shower again. After changing her clothes, she returned to her bedroom for a well-needed sleep.
The next day, the family of three had breakfast together and did some chores together as well. After that, Alayna left for the shop as she was worried that people will crowd the place when the shop wasn’t opening.
Surely when she arrived, everyone was talking and the topic was the shop. It was covered by fog, so the shop couldn’t be seen at all.
[What happened to the shop?]
[I can’t see through it all.]
[Do you think that the shop is closing?]
[…]

When everyone saw Alayna’s car, they were so happy and even the employees who came to face this crazy situation were also relieved. As the customers were busy asking them all these crazy questions and yet they couldn’t give a solid answer, they were going crazy.
Only Elena was the calm one, she still remembered the time she saw something like this. The next time she went to that place again, the staff house was built.
She could tell that whatever the boss was up to this time was actually big and she couldn’t wait to see what the shop will look like when it was done.
"Hello everyone, I am sorry for coming late. I came here for one reason; the shop won’t be opened for the rest of the day today but tomorrow it will be. There will be some changes in the future and I promise to inform all of you if something like this happens again," Alayna explained herself as humbly as she can.
[What is going on?]
[She can’t possibly just tell us this and think that we will be okay with it.]

[What is really going on there?]
Alayna wasn’t in the mood to explain any further, she had done her job to inform them. She passed the printed copies to her staff and they pasted them all over so that whoever comes when they are gone, will know what was happening.
The customers couldn’t voice out their complaints as they didn’t want to be zapped by lightning and get blacklisted.
Alayna looked at her employees and said to them, "I am inviting all of you to my house for dinner tonight. Don’t forget to come."
After dropping a bomb, she majestically left and returned to her car. Alayna wanted to take this night to introduce her children to her employees. She didn’t want to keep on restricting the kids at the house, she wanted them to explore and see the world.
She was going to give them the best and raise them to be the best versions of themselves.
Cooking wasn’t going to be a problem; Alayna had some issues that she needed to deal with. Writing the employee benefits was of greater importance at the moment.
The kids were cultivating and the deadline was getting near, she could understand why they were working so hard, she was the one who urged them in the first place.
She locked herself in her study and began to wonder about what her employees were currently facing at the moment. everyone including herself, they have been working for six days every week with only one day off.
Apart from that they worked from eight in the morning to five in the evening, to be honest, this was very normal and working like this wasn’t harsh at all. It’s just that there wasn’t too much time for anyone to spend time with family.
One day wasn’t enough for anyone, she then remembered that people can do shifts and also take some days off when they needed it.
After digesting her thoughts, she began to draft several employee benefits she thought would suffice.
[THE RISING PHOENIX EMPLOYEE BENEFITS:
1. Apart from the official one-day off leave, every employee is entitled to one paid leave every month. Maternity leave (three to six months.)
2. Paid sick leave.
3. Can take a loan or advance from the boss and repay it without interest.
4. Funeral policy benefits.
5. Sending kids to school.
6. Year-end bonuses.
7. Housing benefits.
8. Transport.
9. Savings account for other purposes like houses, transport, school, etc.
10.......]
She listed down ten benefits she could think of as of now as more could be jotted down in the future but so far only three were allowed. She didn’t cancel them or delete them but decided to keep the rest for the future when she was given the authority to add more.
In the end, Alayna picked up the three that she thought was currently important. She copied and pasted benefit number 1, 3, and 10.
By opening savings accounts for her employees and keeping some of their money for them, that money could be used for great purposes like buying some land, building houses, sending kids to school, buying medicinal herbs for cultivation, or starting some small businesses.
Just because one is working for someone it didn’t mean that they shouldn’t open side businesses to support themselves. She wanted the best for them and if in the future they retire, or left her shop for something better or to operate their businesses, she will bless them with all her heart.
After typing the three rules, she printed them out and made copies for each of the employees. She didn’t know what the supermarket will be like but she prayed that things won’t be that complicated.
She was satisfied with what she has written and decided to deal with another problem. The people responsible for clearing that piece of land were done and the only thing left was to make that land very beautiful.
