He had earned nearly 300 million in a single day, and it all stemmed from the 100 million investment in Yino Group.
Not only did it land a massive order for Dr. Feng’s Robot and Zhi Fei Aerospace, but it also delivered a wave of personal benefits.
What an incredibly profitable venture!
’What a headache. When he was poor, he worried about not having money. Now that he was rich, he worried about how to spend it!’
He sent Zhao Xiangjun a message: "Babe, want me to transfer you some money? Help me spend a little?"
"No, I have money!"
’What money? The amount she has is less than two days of my daily basic stipend.’ He knew Zhao Xiangjun didn’t usually spend much, so he didn’t press the issue.
Seeing Zhao Xiangjun smiling as she texted, Xu Jia leaned over. "Hon, texting your man?"
As Zhao Xiangjun’s best friend of many years, she knew that besides her and her own mother, Zhao Xiangjun rarely initiated texts with anyone else.
Zhao Xiangjun hummed in agreement, and just as she did, Xu Jia leaned over and saw the end of their conversation.
"He offers you money and you turn it down? What are you now, a little rich girl?"
Zhao Xiangjun said, "I have my own money. Why would I need his?"
"How much do you have? Let me see! Show me what you’ve got!" Xu Jia was so close with her that they shared everything, so she wasn’t shy about asking.
She reached out to see her account balance.
Zhao Xiangjun reluctantly handed over her phone, saying with mock annoyance, "Fine, look. One hundred thousand yuan. Prepare to be blinded!"
"Tsk! Who are you looking down on? You think a hundred thousand could possibly blind my... I... Holy shit! Hon, you did that on purpose, didn’t you!"
Xu Jia shrieked. Zhao Xiangjun asked in confusion, "What’s wrong?"
She casually picked up her phone and saw a notification: "Your Huaxia Bank Card has received a deposit of 32,500,000 yuan..."
Her first reaction was that Chen Xiao had transferred it, but a second look revealed it was the third-quarter dividend from Yino Group!
The second-quarter dividend had only just recently arrived. Its payment had been postponed because the group needed to maintain sufficient cash flow during a recent period of rapid store expansion, which was a major cash drain.
But now, with Zhao Xiangjun’s two-billion-yuan capital injection, the company had more money on its books than it could spend, so the third-quarter dividend was naturally disbursed much faster.
The third-quarter dividend pool was 100 million yuan, and with Zhao Xiangjun’s 32.5% stake, her share was exactly 32.5 million!
"I didn’t know either. I didn’t do it on purpose..."
Xu Jia clutched her chest. ’Whether you meant to or not, the damage is already done! This is just too much!’ She had never even accumulated that many Game Coins in all the games she played.
’So many zeros. I just want to count them a few more times.’
"You have this much money, and you’re treating me to cold noodles and rice noodle soup? Does your conscience not bother you at all?"
Zhao Xiangjun elegantly wiped her mouth with a napkin and said, "Isn’t this delicious?"
"It’s delicious, but I feel so wronged!" Xu Jia mumbled.
"Why would we not eat something we enjoy, just to spend more money on something we don’t? That’s just paying to suffer, isn’t it? How silly is that!"
Zhao Xiangjun thought for a moment, then took out her phone to transfer money to Chen Xiao. Her previous mobile transfer limit had been two million, but after making several large transfers, she had applied to have the limit adjusted.
The new maximum transfer limit was ten million.
Xu Jia watched her, her eyes as wide as saucers. "Hon, you’re transferring money to Chen Xiao? Does he need money?"
"He’s not short on money, but I don’t have a use for it either. Seeing so much money in my account is stressful!"
Xu Jia facepalmed and chided, "You’re just destined to be poor at heart! A little bit of money and you already feel burdened!"
"’Destined to be poor? But I’m not poor now!" Zhao Xiangjun replied with perfect sincerity, dealing 10,000 points of critical damage to Xu Jia.
Yes, I’m the poor one. Xu Jia looked at her with a sorrowful expression.
Chen Xiao was happily looking at his status panel. His own balance had finally surpassed Zhao Xiangjun’s Diligence Fund!
He hadn’t been happy for even two minutes when a notification popped up on the system!
"DING! Detected a transfer of 10,000,000 from Zhao Xiangjun to the Host. Rewarding Zhao Xiangjun’s Diligence Fund with 3.92 billion. New balance: 3.98 billion!"
Chen Xiao was utterly dumbfounded. ’My dearest Xiangjun, you’re a real pro at this game! Your money-making speed... I can only look up to you in awe!’
While others were struggling to earn 39.8 yuan an hour, she was already making 3.98 billion a second!
Ever since the Jiangzhou Wansheng Square Store was ordered by the mall to close for rectification, Zhao Hui had felt isolated at work.
Everyone looked at him with strange expressions, and he could even feel them whispering about him behind his back.
They were undoubtedly saying that he had caused trouble as soon as he arrived, that he wouldn’t last long, and that people who get in through connections are unreliable and only bring huge losses to the company.
Some also privately commented that the company should promote cadres based on seniority and from within. "Paratroopers" hired from the outside would never work out!
Of course, Zhao Hui wasn’t affected by any of this. Not since he had met his brother-in-law, Chen Xiao, and witnessed his power.
In private, Liu Haoran was incredibly polite to Zhao Hui, as if Zhao Hui were the real leader. But Zhao Hui remembered Chen Xiao’s words: at the company, Liu Haoran was the boss, and one must show the proper respect to one’s leader.
Zhao Hui was very smart and adopted a humble posture, which made Liu Haoran extremely pleased.
"Zhao Hui, President Liu is looking for you!" Just as he was thinking about these things, someone from outside called to him.
Liu Haoran had called Zhao Hui to go with him to Ganglong International. He was beaming; he had never dared to imagine that Huang Guangyuan, the General Manager of Ganglong International, would personally call to invite him over.
He had heard the entire conversation between Chen Xiao and Huang Guangyuan yesterday, so he knew exactly what today’s visit was for. It was a fantastic opportunity, not a treacherous feast like the one Peng Yu had once arranged.
He brought Zhao Hui along with the goal of letting him learn about business development, and at the same time, to further strengthen his relationship with him.
Today, a chauffeur was driving. Liu Haoran had also brought along Fang Qiang, the head of the Business Development Department. Being perceptive, Zhao Hui took the front passenger seat.
This left Fang Qiang to accompany Liu Haoran in the back row. After all, Fang Qiang not only outranked him but had also already scrambled to get into the back row.
Fang Qiang was wary of Zhao Hui because Liu Haoran paid a lot of attention to him. Previously, when Zhao Hui was a deputy supervisor in the logistics department, he hadn’t been a threat.
But today, Liu Haoran was going to Ganglong International to discuss brand placement, and bringing Zhao Hui along sent an unmistakable message. He surely wanted Zhao Hui to transfer to the Business Development Department in the future. ’What does that mean for my position?’
A gloom clouded Fang Qiang’s face. He was notoriously petty and small-minded at the company.
He also had a particular trait: he loved to suck up to his superiors, but he looked down on everyone else.
He’d even told a subordinate in the office, "Why are you wasting your breath on the other departments? They’re all a bunch of pigs!"
Fortunately for him, his rank was high enough, and he was so good at sucking up to Liu Haoran that others at the company generally gave him a wide berth.
