Chapter Index

    When Ren Ziqiang returned to the dorm, his beating was over and he was now sleeping soundly. Judging from his facial expression, he didn’t suffer too much when he left.

    Meanwhile, Zhou Chao had already started packing his bags and changed into a floral shirt, preparing to return home in glory.

    With exams over and summer vacation officially beginning, although Financial Class 3 still had a gathering in the evening, he didn’t plan to attend.

    After all, it had been a year. Those who should be familiar with each other were familiar, and those who should date were dating. Nothing good would come from gathering with classmates anymore, so these gatherings only held symbolic meaning now.

    “Bro Jiang, when are you leaving?”

    “I’m not in a hurry. The day after tomorrow at the latest. What about Old Cao?”

    “I’ll pack my things first. When Ding Xue calls me, I’ll leave. I need to take her home first.”

    After finishing his words, Cao Guangyu couldn’t help glancing at Jiang Qin, “Old Jiang, you really have it good. Finding a local girl, you don’t have to run back and forth when you go home for the holidays.”

    “She’s not local, she’s from Shanghai.” The sudden relaxation after the exams caused Jiang Qin to let his guard down.

    “Ooh, aren’t you two good friends? I didn’t even mention a name and you thought of Feng Nanshu?”

    “Haha, well said. Don’t mention it again next time.”

    Jiang Qin spat at him, changed his clothes, and left the dorm. Then he called Xu Yu and went to the Industrial and Commercial Bank on East Changshui Road to withdraw some money, intending to give out bonuses to the people in Room 208.

    The core team of 208 had a total of twenty-one people, including six in the tech team, six in the content team, seven in the marketing team, plus Lu Xuemei from the design team and Xu Yu from finance.

    With two thousand yuan per person, the bonuses alone would cost fifty thousand.

    However, for the current Jiang Qin, this amount of money was just a drop in the bucket and not worth calculating. The most critical issue was that the optimization of the forum and the adjustment of content would be carried out during the summer vacation. This money was also meant to motivate them not to lie flat and relax just because it was a holiday.

    The school was on vacation, but what did that have to do with Jiang Qin?

    Although you are still in school, you are already mature working people! You need to enter the days without winter and summer vacations in advance!

    Swish, swish, swish, from the cash dispenser, red banknotes were spat out one by one, so bright that they made people dizzy. It immediately shocked the few men, women, old and young withdrawing money next to him.

    Nowadays, fifty thousand yuan was not a small sum. An ordinary wage earner might not be able to save that much in five years, let alone the fact that the person withdrawing the money was so young. Who wouldn’t be curious?

    “Sigh, ever since joining the group-buy, the money has been growing day by day. It’s worrying me to death. How can I spend it all?”

    “Who would have thought that someone earning fifty thousand a month would be a college student who hasn’t even graduated yet? Damn, there’s no law!”

    “Thanks to group-buy, thanks to-”

    “PT88, group-buy makes you prosperous! You earn, I earn, everyone becomes a boss!”

    Jiang Qin slapped a wad of bills, his voice so loud that everyone in the hall could hear, making Senior Xu Yu gasp beside him.

    Although the group-buy’s ground promotion activities in Linchuan had been declared over, the boss still promoted it wherever he went. If he didn’t get rich, who would?

    When a person’s daily nonsense was filled with strong money-making routines, who in this world could stop him?

    “Let’s go back and check-”

    “-how much money we made today.”

    “Okay, boss.”

    Walking out of the bank, Jiang Qin put away his exaggerated performance and became a noble and aloof man again. The people withdrawing money in the bank glanced at each other, quietly took out their phones, secretly logged into the group-buy website, as if a seed had been planted in their hearts.

    By 300 p.m., Jiang Qin brought Xu Yu back to 208. Carrying a thick stack of bills, as soon as he entered the door, he was welcomed by twenty-one employees with cheers like a tidal wave.

    This kind of welcome usually only occurred when Feng Nanshu came to inspect. He never thought that one day he, a naked capitalist, would also experience it.

    Bastards, they were all money-worshipping laymen. Too damn real.

    Of course, since everyone was in high spirits, Jiang Qin didn’t keep them in suspense. He directly let Xu Yu count the money and distribute it, making everyone’s eyes sparkle.

    “Boss, don’t forget you said you’d take us on a trip during summer vacation!” Su Nai hadn’t forgotten about the pot while eating from the bowl.

    But Jiang Qin was very gratified, thinking that employees who took the initiative to work like this were hard to come by nowadays: “Everyone can discuss in the group after going back, see where you want to go. If there’s no problem, Xu Yu will be responsible for booking the plane tickets.”

    “Domestic or international?”

    “Domestic. The power outlets abroad are different from ours. If you want to use a laptop, you have to buy an adapter. It’s inconvenient and delays work… I mean, shared enjoyment.”

    “?”

    At this time, Wei Lanlan raised her hand, “Boss, the manager of Vienna, Mr. Wang, the manager of Hongjin Entertainment, Mr. Zhang, and a few other bosses all want to have a meal with you.”

    Jiang Qin thought for a moment, “The foundation of group-buy is high-quality partner merchants. We can’t ignore them. How about this, I’ll go eat with Manager Wang and Manager Zhang. You, Tan Qing, and Wenhao, you guys don’t leave first. Represent me and have a meal with the other bosses.”

    “Okay, I’ll arrange a time then.”

    Hearing this, Lu Feiyu spoke up, “Boss, I’m a local. I don’t need to leave either!”

    Jiang Qin glanced at him, “Feiyu is great. Then you’ll be responsible for cleaning the office. Remember to turn off the water and electricity, and clear out the things in the fridge.”

    Lu Feiyu’s breath hitched, “Boss, do you dislike me?”

    “Nonsense, you’re my favorite person in this office. The people I trust the most are usually the ones who stay behind to do the follow-up work. Otherwise, why wouldn’t I give it to Su Nai? Because she’s not reliable!”

    Su Nai clenched her fists, “Why am I not reliable? You even praised me as a treasure employee before!”

    Jiang Qin chuckled, “Because if I told you to turn off the water and electricity, you might cut the wires and block the faucet.”

    “How is that possible? I’m not stupid. Turning off water and electricity is just pulling the switch and turning off the valve, right? I’m a programmer, but I’m not an idiot!” Su Nai was so angry she wanted to roar like an evil dragon.

    “What else?”

    “What else is there?”

    Jiang Qin looked at Lu Feiyu, “Feiyu, do you know what else there is besides turning off the water and electricity?”

    “Buy a 2-liter bottle of Coke and finish it!” Lu Feiyu showed a confident smile.

    Jiang Qin nodded with satisfaction, “See, Feiyu knows a lot more than you.”

    Su Nai couldn’t believe it, “How is drinking Coke considered follow-up work?”

    Lu Feiyu crossed his arms, “After drinking the Coke, wash the bottle clean, fill it with water, poke a small hole, and place it sideways in the money tree’s flowerpot. This ensures it has sufficient water during the summer vacation. The most critical factor for a company’s success is a thriving money tree.”

    “Well said. Feiyu’s meticulousness is truly eye-opening.”

    “It’s all thanks to the boss’s good teaching.”

    Jiang Qin couldn’t help but laugh and patted his shoulder.

    In fact, he really liked Lu Feiyu, even if his EQ wasn’t high.

    Because for a boss, you really can’t just have flattering treacherous officials around you. That way, no matter who it is, they’ll get too arrogant. So he needed a reckless official who dared to speak the truth by his side as a reference.

    He dared to directly ask, “Boss, do you dislike me?” This kind of personality was exactly what Jiang Qin needed in a reckless official.

    If one day, you are surrounded by nothing but endless praise, that is what a people’s entrepreneur should be most vigilant of.

    Just as they were talking, a series of click-clack sounds from high heels came from outside. Everyone immediately stood at attention and looked towards the door.

    The next second, the aloof little rich girl arrived at 208, muttering “your little cutie suddenly appears” under her breath, then went to Jiang Qin’s side with a blank expression.

    Seeing this, Jiang Qin picked up the money bag, took out two thousand yuan, and handed it to her, “This is for you.”

    Feng Nanshu looked down, “Why are you giving it to me?”

    “You’ve worked hard being my boss’s wife for a year. This is a holiday bonus. Everyone gets one.”

    The little rich girl took the money, raised her little face with gentle eyes, “Thank you, boss.”

    As soon as the words fell, 208 immediately erupted in cheers. In their hearts, they thought, you two should just get married on the spot. Why stay friends? One worked hard as the boss’s wife, the other thanking the boss. It really made people grind their back molars to dust.

    “Feiyu, if you had the boss’s tricks, would you still be single?”

    “Ma Yubao, if you had the boss’s wife’s manners, would you get a beating from me later?”

    “?????”

    Jiang Qin hurriedly stopped their teasing, “Alright, since it’s the holidays, hurry up and get lost.”

    “The boss and the boss’s wife need to vacate the place to be friends!” Su Nai swung her bag and ran out of the office, howling.

    After that, everyone started packing their things in a bustle, shouting “Boss, Boss’s wife, goodbye” as they ran out the door one after another.

    Because it was near the end of the semester, many entrepreneurial departments in the entrepreneurship base were holding meetings, such as media studios and tutoring companies. Hearing the cheers, they couldn’t help but go out to check.

    Whoosh –

    Dong Wenhao walked too fast and accidentally scattered the bills all over the ground, making the other college students doing entrepreneurial projects feel heartbroken.

    They were all starting businesses in the same building, but other people’s bonuses alone were two thousand per person. In contrast, their monthly net profit wasn’t even two thousand. It was really a different fate for the same people.

    Dong Wenhao’s face turned red. In his heart, he thought, how did he accidentally drop the money? Then he squatted down and started picking it up one by one. As a result, while picking it up, he saw a pair of beautiful feet in high heels standing in front of him.

    “?”

    Dong Wenhao raised his head and saw a woman wearing a black long dress standing in front of him.

    She had long, wavy hair falling over her shoulders, two bright gold hoops on her ears, and very stylish light makeup on her face, especially those eyebrows, which had been shaped to be very sharp.

    “Classmate, is your boss here?”

    “Uh… the boss is here, but our boss’s wife is also here. They’re together.” Dong Wenhao was very clever.

    He didn’t know this woman’s identity, but since she was looking for the boss, she must be related to the boss. As a treacherous official, he had to make it clear that the boss’s wife was also in the office.

    The woman paused for a moment, then thanked him and stepped towards 208.
