Guardian of the Mountain and Sea Gate

Also known as: I Inherited a Zoo, but All the Employees Are Ancient Divine Beasts??? A Modern-Day Unlucky Guy's Bizarre Work Diary!! Shen Liushang is a born loser who graduated straight into unemployment. He chokes on his water, trips over every pothole, and can never get more than one bar of Wi-Fi. Just as he failed his 108th job interview and was about to go home and live off his parents A strange Chinese-style manor, Wangchuan Residence, suddenly opened its doors to him. And so began his miserable working life: meals and lodging included, built to withstand beatings and verbal abuse, and with a whole bunch of demanding elders thrown in for free!! Even more absurdly, none of his coworkers are normal! The sharp-tongued, scheming, long-legged owner, who wears a qipao and smokes from a long-stemmed pipe, treats him like a "human wishing machine" and orders him around every day! A violent golden-haired little boy is either beating him up or on his way to do so, while a highly intelligent white-haired little girl spends her days either watching anime and shipping CPs or humiliating people for their lack of intelligence with mathematical formulas... And his daily job is to <keep an eye on> a bunch of hot-tempered divine beasts from the Classic of Mountains and Seas who've skipped work!!! Nine-Tailed Fox: Claims to be a top-tier star and throws a fit every day about holding a fan meeting! Taotie: Sneaks food from the fridge in the middle of the night, then has the nerve to say, "You sealed me away for thousands of years! What's wrong with eating a couple bags of your chips?!" Qiongqi: A terminal chuunibyou who yells "Destroy humanity!" every day, only to get assigned by the long-legged lady to scoop poop for the neighborhood's stray cats! Other daily happenings include, but are not limited to: ✔ Helping an office worker who's been bullied at work face-slap the boss (Bai Ze's "workplace clapback skills" are MAXED OUT) ✔ Helping a girl with autism regain her confidence (Luan Bird is the president of the competitive-recruitment praise club) ✔ Stopping Xiang Liu from using all nine heads to play on his phone at once!!
