Chapter 89: Earning So Much Again

Chapter 89: Chapter 89: Earning So Much Again

Dr. Feng’s Robot

The proposal for a joint venture with Yino Company to establish a subsidiary for researching robotics in the retail sector wasn’t ready until 1:00 PM.

Even though he hadn’t finished it in the morning as Feng Feifei requested, Chen Xiao knew this was still incredibly fast.

He forwarded the business plan to Zhang Shijie; the rest was up to him. This was directly tied to his mission’s completion rate. If Zhang Shijie couldn’t handle it, Chen Xiao would seriously consider strengthening his control over the Yino Group to achieve his goal.

To his astonishment, less than an hour later, Zhang Shijie called him back and said it was a done deal.

Chen Xiao couldn’t believe it had gone so smoothly. After asking, he learned that Zhang Shijie had returned and successfully persuaded the chairman.

Of course, the chairman also knew that this was major shareholder Zhao Xiangjun’s intention, so he was willing to cooperate. It went surprisingly smoothly, meaning Hou Fei and his team had wasted their morning.

"DING! Mission Complete: Reach a cooperation agreement with the Yino Group for an order of no less than 10 million. Order Amount: 100 million. Completion Rate: 1000%."

’With a completion rate like that, the rewards have to be insane,’ Chen Xiao thought in excited anticipation.

Opening the random gift package, he received the following rewards:

[Mission Reward 1: Constitution +10, Endurance +10, Health +10, Charm +5]

[Mission Reward 2: Diligence Points +10]

[Mission Reward 3: 5% equity in Henglong International]

A jackpot! This was a true jackpot! His personal stats had actually increased by 10 points. With Constitution at 95 and Health at 95, this body was now practically immune to all illnesses.

And with Endurance at 100, he was invincible. No kidding—this meant no one could possibly defeat him. From this day forward, he would be the most confident man alive!

His Charm had also reached 91. ’Does this mean I’ve reached the point where everyone loves me on sight and flowers bloom in my presence?’ he wondered.

The most incredible part was the 10 Diligence Points. This directly raised his daily basic stipend to Level 4, which meant he would now get 32,000 yuan a day! And the bonus from Zhao Xiangjun’s special fund would be even higher!

He checked his status panel:

[Host: Chen Xiao (Diligence Points: 30)]

[Profession: Dr. Feng’s Robot - Business Specialist]

[Height: 178 cm, Weight: 75 kg]

[Constitution: 95, Endurance: 100, Health: 95, Charm: 91]

Daily Basic Stipend LV4: 32,000 yuan/day

Diligence Reward: Bonus x Diligence Points

Skills: Wisdom Eye (Can see a project’s investment return rate)

[Assets:

Balance: 46.8 million yuan

Real Estate: Hai Run Mansion (50 sq. m. apartment), 22nd and 28th floors of Yunfeng Building, one Bihu Shuangxi Villa

Corporate Holdings: Henglong International (5% equity)

Vehicles: Mercedes-Benz CLS 300, Wisdom Realm R7]

It was all so magnificent. He was suddenly filled with the heroic feeling that with the system in hand, the world was his!

A "Corporate Holdings" section had been added to his panel. It seemed that as long as he didn’t leave his business position at Dr. Feng’s Robot, he could hold shares in other companies.

The system had rewarded him with 5% equity in Henglong International. This Henglong International was no small matter. Although it didn’t have many commercial projects—only a dozen or so across the country—they were all high-end commercial properties.

Take the Henglong International in Jiangzhou, for example. Its annual sales reached 6 billion yuan because it housed luxury brands.

In contrast, Wansheng Square’s annual sales didn’t even reach 2 billion yuan.

So, while Henglong International’s assets might not be as extensive as the Wansheng Group’s, in terms of influence within the commercial sector, Wansheng couldn’t even hold a candle to it.

They dealt with the most top-tier retail brands; every one of their locations had major luxury tenants.

Chen Xiao was a bit perplexed. He didn’t know why the system kept rewarding him with equity in retail projects. ’Does it want me to build up and strengthen the retail sector?’

Before he could dwell on it, another system notification popped up. He opened it and read:

"DING! Detected that Zhao Xiangjun has spent 3.8 million yuan on the Host’s parents. Rewarding Host with 1.4592 billion yuan from the Zhao Xiangjun Special Diligence Fund."

Chen Xiao was dumbfounded. ’Xiangjun, my darling, what have you done now? Weren’t you busy with something?’

’Why on earth did you spend another 3.8 million on my parents?!’

’How are you so good at making money for me? I look away for a second and you’ve made me another 1.46 billion!’

He snatched up his phone and called her.

"Where are you?" He didn’t dare mention that he knew she’d spent 3.8 million. Zhao Xiangjun would definitely wonder how he found out, and he wouldn’t be able to explain it.

"I’m in Laining County, with your mother!"

Chen Xiao was momentarily speechless. Laining County was his hometown; his parents were volunteer teachers at the county middle school there.

He was exasperated that Zhao Xiangjun had gone to see his mom, and that neither of them had told him beforehand.

He’d seen plenty of men who forgot their mothers after getting a wife, but a mother who forgot her son after gaining a daughter-in-law was a rare sight indeed!

He asked resentfully, "Why did you run off to Laining without telling me first? How can you visit my family without me there?"

Zhao Xiangjun replied in a crisp voice, "Your father’s Aito M9 arrived. I picked it up today and drove it back to Laining!"

This made Chen Xiao even angrier. "You’re so capable, why don’t you just fly to the moon? You’ve only been driving for a few days, and you’re already going on long-distance trips!"

He was terrified thinking about what could have happened on the road with her rookie driving skills.

Hearing the anger in his voice, Zhao Xiangjun fell silent. She was used to being independent all these years; Chen Xiao’s worries seemed excessive to her.

In her own words, she wasn’t that delicate. She had survived just fine all those years without Chen Xiao, hadn’t she?

"What are you and my mom doing?"

"I just bought a 280-square-meter house for your father and mother at the Scholarly Family Estates!"

’Fine, you win! It’s like you can’t rest until you’ve spent every last penny you have!’

The only money she had was from the Yino Group’s second-quarter dividend, a total of 8.5 million yuan. She had transferred 4 million to Chen Xiao, bought his father an Aito M9, and now had spent another 3.8 million on a house.

’She has 100,000 yuan left at most. What a pauper,’ Chen Xiao criticized her with wicked glee.

He pulled up Zhao Xiangjun’s character panel to take a look:

[Opposite-Sex Diligence Fund: Zhao Xiangjun (Diligence Points: 96)]

[Profession: Yirui Business Men’s Clothing - Gold Medal Salesperson]

[Diligence Fund: 1.56 billion]

[Assets:

Real Estate: One Bihu Shuangxi Villa

Corporate Holdings: Yino Group (32.5% equity), Junxiao Capital (99% equity)

Junxiao Capital: 800 million]

Of the previous 900 million, 800 million was paid-in capital for Junxiao Capital, which was why Junxiao Capital’s total managed funds were now listed separately.

Seeing the 1.56 billion in her Diligence Fund, Chen Xiao felt dizzy. The more money she spent, the more money they made! It just kept growing!

He was finally experiencing Wang Duoyu’s dilemma!

He had no idea how Zhao Xiangjun had convinced his parents to accept the house she bought, but he admired her ability to persuade them so quickly.

Just as he was thinking this, Mother Chen took the phone and said, "Chen Xiao, you’re not allowed to scold Xiangjun anymore! Look, her little face has gone pale with fright. If you say another word, she’ll be too scared to come back!"

’Is she exaggerating? Zhao Xiangjun isn’t that timid. Besides, I was just worried about her, I didn’t mean anything else. What’s there for her to be afraid of?’

But his mom had spoken, so he certainly couldn’t say any more to Zhao Xiangjun. Instead, he asked about his parents’ health and told them he would come home to see them in a few days.

Unexpectedly, his mother said heartlessly, "If you’re busy, it’s fine if you don’t come back. Just have Xiangjun visit. And tell her not to drive next time. She can take the high-speed train, and I’ll pick her up at the station!"
