Gods of the Gig Economy
When the Heavenly Court went bankrupt (apparently immortality doesn't generate revenue), the Chinese gods were forced to get mortal jobs. Guan Yu works security. Caishen is a financial advisor (naturally). The Monkey King drives a food delivery scooter — and has a 2.1 rating. Nuwa works at a fertility clinic. The Kitchen God runs a food truck. And the Jade Emperor? He's trying to restructure heaven as a tech startup. But the demons have adapted too — they're running gig economy apps as fronts for soul harvesting. The gods have to unionize. Heaven help us.
