Chapter 323 - 220: How Come Everyone Is Higher Than Me? (Part 2)

Ji Kun was in a tough spot and didn’t know what to say. He’d overheard Yang Hui’s base salary at a dinner party once.

"It’s fine, just tell me. I won’t laugh, no matter how low it is. He’s young, after all. With so little professional experience, he can’t be earning that much."

"Umm... I heard it’s 15,000."

Yang Wei was in the middle of sipping a cup of hot water. His hand trembled at the words, and the water shot up his nose. "Ah, SPUTTER— Ah, SPUTTER." "Hot... hot... hot!"

He looked like he was in agony. Ji Kun felt just as awful. They had barely touched the feast on the table, and now it was ruined, sprayed with water and spit. He had been planning to get the leftovers packed to go, but there was no way he could eat them now.

’Son of a bitch, wasting my hard-earned money. A pathetic wreck like you wants to compare yourself to Manager Yang? You’re not even fit to shine his shoes.’

Shen Meng called the waiter over to get the check, then quietly left with Yang Hui. As she was leaving, she waved goodbye to Ji Kun, who stood up with an awkward, pained smile.

After several tissues, Yang Wei finally managed to clean himself up, but the inside of his nose was still stinging.

"Ji Kun, don’t spout off information you haven’t confirmed next time. There’s no way his salary is higher than mine."

’What was the point of arguing with him now? Better to just let him say whatever he wanted.’

"Come on, Ji Kun. Let’s keep eating."

Looking at the disaster of a table, Ji Kun picked up his glass and took a sip of water. ’Eat, my ass. Who could possibly eat this now?’

As Yang Hui watched Shen Meng bustle around the room boiling water for tea, he opened his system notifications.

[Detected that system-bound individual Shen Meng has spent 60 yuan for the Host, activating a random multiplier spending rebate.]

[Spending Rebate Random Multiplier: 50x

Spending Rebate Amount: 3,000 yuan

Task Completion Progress: 28500/50000]

’That must be from the fruit drinks. An increase of 60 yuan was so small I couldn’t even see the progress bar move.’

[Detected that system-bound individual Shen Meng has spent 280 yuan for the Host, activating a random multiplier spending rebate.]

[Spending Rebate Random Multiplier: 70x

Spending Rebate Amount: 19,600 yuan

Task Completion Progress: 28780/50000]

’She always earns me a little spending money whenever we go out. Today’s rebate is more than enough for a business suite. If only this rebate system could last forever,’ Yang Hui thought to himself, daydreaming.

After placing the tea on the coffee table, Shen Meng saw Yang Hui beckoning her over and obediently sat down beside him.

With a bombshell of a girlfriend like her, Yang Hui could never get enough. Whether it was her flawlessly white, straight legs or her round, perky butt, he felt like he could enjoy them for a lifetime. He had even made a point of researching various new positions to explore with Shen Meng.

An hour later, Shen Meng was lying spread-eagled on the bed, scrolling through her phone. After checking the back-end data, she said to Yang Hui, who had just walked in, "Today’s been great. We’ve sold over three million in just four hours. It looks like we have a chance to break the six-million record."

Last time, Shen Meng’s four-hour stream for NLB brought in 4.1 million in sales. The Zen brand is stronger than NLB, so breaking three million in four hours wasn’t actually that great. However, Shen Meng noted that she could see the two junior streamers becoming more and more skilled. Their closing rate had clearly improved toward the end, and with two people streaming, they could go for longer. The end result was still better than the NLB stream.

Yang Hui knew what she was really excited about: her two teammates were developing well and would soon be able to hold their own. There’s a limit to how strong one person can be; a strong team is what’s truly powerful.

"Then we should celebrate, Meng Meng."

Shen Meng looked back with a smile. "How are we celebrating?"

Yang Hui walked over, spread her plump buttocks with his hands, and pressed himself down on her. "Like this," he said.

By the time they returned to Xinyue Square, the livestream was nearly over. As expected, total sales for the day reached 6.3 million.

One streamer had sold 3 million, and the other 3.3 million. Both of them were ecstatic and kept insisting on treating Shen Meng to dinner. When they first started as streamers, they were selling less than 5,000 yuan a day and were close to losing all their confidence. Fortunately, Yanghe Commerce paid well. With their 10,000 yuan base salary, even if they only made 5,000 in sales a day, they could still earn around 15,000 yuan a month with the 3% sales commission. That, combined with the company’s positive work environment, motivated them to constantly work on improving themselves.

The results were immediately obvious. Now, streaming daily from the office on a new company account, they could occasionally surpass 10,000 in solo daily sales. Today’s sales figure was, without a doubt, another massive morale boost. More importantly, they knew what these numbers meant—from this single stream, they would each earn a commission of over 90,000 yuan.

For two young women who had just graduated from college, this was like striking it rich overnight.

Their desire to treat Shen Meng to dinner was twofold: first, to thank her for her mentorship, and second, because they knew she had given them this opportunity. Otherwise, she could have just done the stream herself, like she did with NLB, and kept all the commission.

But she didn’t compete with her subordinates for profit; instead, she was happy to see her team earn more. Where could they ever find such a good boss? How could they not be completely devoted to Yanghe Commerce and to Shen Meng?

Shen Meng glanced at Yang Hui. She had originally planned to have dinner with him, but seeing how excited the two streamers were, she didn’t want to spoil their mood. Yang Hui understood her hesitation and smiled. "Go with them. Just don’t drink any alcohol."

"Okay, I know."

"You can take them to [Yinlu · Xiang]. I have a card right here."

With that, he pulled the prepaid card he got last time from his briefcase and handed it to Shen Meng. She, of course, no longer stood on ceremony with him over things like this and accepted it.
