Chapter 473: Chapter 372: The Profits Are So High? The Boss of Lianxiang Was Shocked

Is it embarrassing to ride your son-in-law’s coattails? We’re family, what’s there to be embarrassed about!?

If anything, it’s something to brag about!

Jun Xinghe was well aware of the situation.

How many big shots in Guangjing City alone went to Jiang Liu’s restaurant to eat?

You couldn’t even count them on ten people’s hands.

He personally knew of dozens of tycoons with piles of spare cash on hand.

Most of these people were in sunset industries. Seeing that the market in their fields was failing, they had stopped producing, liquidated their assets, and were now sitting on huge piles of cash.

These people were desperate for a place to invest.

If his son-in-law just said the word, countless speculators would be fighting to invest and build him a platform. They might even bash each other’s heads in for a few percentage points of shares.

An endless, inexhaustible supply of resources would be at his disposal.

With just a single word from his son-in-law, big shots from all over would be running errands for him.

Forget the one secretary he had assigned; by then, a hundred secretaries would be swarming around his son-in-law, at his beck and call.

Ren Qingqing was stunned for a moment, then quickly changed her tune. "You’re right, President Jun. President Jiang is indeed a very formidable person."

"I’ve met many people who studied abroad, with qualifications as high as the heavens, but when it comes to getting things done, none of them have President Jiang’s practical abilities."

"President Jiang could casually open a branch, and that alone would be the pinnacle of what those people could achieve in a lifetime."

She had discovered Jun Xinghe’s "little quirk," so she focused her praise on Jiang Liu.

Jun Xinghe felt gratified. He said sternly, "Alright, that’s enough. Remember to report the revenue from the two stores to me tonight."

"Understood!"

Jun Xinghe took a screenshot of the revenue figures, censored it, and posted it to his Moments.

All in one smooth motion.

": A small surprise. Opened a company with my son-in-law, and I didn’t expect to make this much money just from the first day’s lunch service. Profit margin is over seventy percent. It’s alright, barely acceptable."

The moment he posted it, a large crowd of big-shot onlookers was quickly drawn in.

Recently, Jun Xinghe had added a ton of Presidents and Directors.

They all added him because he was Jiang Liu’s father-in-law.

Yang Qing, the head of Lianxiang, was resting on his massage chair.

He wore glasses and had a round, harmless-looking face.

’Let’s see what everyone’s up to on Moments...’

Yang Qing was squinting his eyes in thought when he opened his Moments and saw Jun Xinghe’s "humblebrag" post.

"..."

His expression instantly turned as foul as if he’d eaten a pile of shit.

He couldn’t help but curse.

"Damn it!"

"This old bastard must be crazy!"

"How did a perfectly good social media feed become this son of a bitch’s personal show-off board?"

Yang Qing cursed a few more times under his breath.

He wanted to scroll past, but he couldn’t resist tapping on the image.

He took one look at the profits.

He let out a PUFF of laughter.

"Tens of thousands in revenue?"

"You have the gall to show that off?"

"You’re just an embarrassment to Boss Jiang!"

"Huh?"

Yang Qing suddenly froze.

’Something’s not right.’

’It’s only been three or four days since they started the company together, right?’

’If that’s the case, there’s no way the store had time to advertise...’

At this thought, Yang Qing was stunned.

’If you calculate it that way, with tens of thousands in profit from just one lunch service on opening day... won’t that figure double in a short while?’

’Even more, once the brand captures the market of a single third-tier city, wouldn’t the annual profit be at least several hundred million!?’

The more he thought about it, the more agitated he became.

His heart filled with sourness and jealousy.

His own annual take-home was only a few billion.

And his expenses were huge.

For him, taking out tens of thousands was easy, but taking out a few hundred million would be a major hemorrhage.

The thought of that bastard Jun Xinghe lucking into such a good son-in-law left a bad taste in Yang Qing’s mouth.

How did all the good things happen to Jun Xinghe?

To put it bluntly,

He also wanted to work with Jiang Liu.

Just a casual investment, and you get several hundred million a year. How great would that be?

The express delivery tycoon Liu Dong sent a message: "Old Yang, did you see Moments?"

Yang Qing replied: "I saw..."

Liu Dong’s teeth ached with envy: "I had my people run the numbers. His company has huge future potential. He’s really good at leeching off his son-in-law."

Lately, the internet express delivery market has been volatile. It was one cake being fought over by a whole crowd.

Liu Dong currently had over ten billion saved up.

He was also worried.

Worried because he had nowhere to spend it.

If Jiang Liu were to ask, he would definitely invest heavily.

Yang Qing said: "I just don’t get it. We’re all on the same level, so how come all the good things fall into that bastard’s lap!"

"Xiao Jiang somehow became his son-in-law and even treats him so well. I fucking see that bastard’s smug, show-off face even in my sleep. And now he’s making a killing just by following Xiao Jiang around, hah."

Liu Dong: "What’s your relationship with Jun Xinghe like? Should we have him set up a meeting with Boss Jiang for us? We can ask if we can join in."

He had piles of resources and cash, but nowhere to invest them.

Now that Jiang Liu wanted to start a company, his heart was immediately swayed.

’Working with Boss Jiang, could he possibly let you lose money?’

Yang Qing: "Better not. Jun Xinghe is a petty guy. He probably has a lot of money on hand, more than enough for what Boss Jiang needs. If we try to join, he’ll definitely stand in front of Boss Jiang and block us."

Yang Qing: "Besides, are you really willing to work with him? Don’t forget, Boss Jiang is his son-in-law. If we partner with them, won’t Jun Xinghe be showing off to us every single day?"

After reading the message, Liu Dong instantly gave up on the tempting idea.

Right now, Jun Xinghe’s Moments was still filled with posts that basically screamed, ’My son-in-law is great, my son-in-law is awesome, and you don’t have one.’

The two of them complained about Jun Xinghe for a while, and in that instant, they were like kindred spirits. Their relationship even became much closer.

United in their boycott of the humblebragger Jun Xinghe!

But complaining was just complaining.

The jealousy was still real.

Who wouldn’t be smitten by a son-in-law as good as Boss Jiang?

If it were them, they might have shown off even more than Jun Xinghe.

RING... RING...

Yang Zhengwu sat in the car.

A smile was on his face, and the phone in his hand never stopped.

"Hey, Old Li! Come to my place tonight for a get-together. I have some good news to tell you!"

"Busy, President Huang? HAHAHA, that’s right. Come find me tonight, I’ve got some of Boss Jiang’s food here. Oh, and I have something interesting to tell you."

"Hello...? What’re you looking at on Moments? Did Jun Xinghe post something again?"

Yang Zhengwu smiled and opened his Moments.

First glance.

’What is this?’

Second glance.

THUD!

His phone fell onto the floor of the car.

The secretary driving in the front glanced in the rearview mirror, his expression gradually turning strange. He had heard the contents of the recent phone calls loud and clear.

"President Yang, are you alright? Are you not feeling well?"

he asked, feigning ignorance.

’He was secretly howling with laughter.’

"I’m fine," Yang Zhengwu said calmly, picking up his phone while still maintaining his smile. "A friend played a prank on me, sent me a scary video. It was pretty terrifying, haha."

"Alright, President Yang." The secretary looked away, his shoulders shaking uncontrollably.

’I’m dying! HAHAHA!’

’He didn’t need to think to know. He was definitely pissed off by Jun Xinghe from Huaxia Pharmaceutical again.’

’The news that Jun Xinghe was showing off his son-in-law every day had already spread.’

’As his secretary, of course he knew.’

Yang Zhengwu looked at his Moments again.

He lowered his head, his expression exceptionally foul.

Son of a bitch!

’I miscalculated!’

’I never thought... Boss Jiang is still Boss Jiang. To have such good returns right after opening a store.’
