Reborn, back to a small county town to become a wealthy family

Chapter 740 Figure it out
Perhaps unwilling to spoil the pleasant dining environment, the two did not discuss serious matters much during the entire dinner.

Even when it is mentioned, it is always just mentioned briefly and not discussed in depth.

A little after 8:30, Luo Yang led Dong Xuan out of the restaurant.

"Want to ride with me?"

"Mr. Luo, have you forgotten that I also called him Persian Cat?"

Dong Xuan giggled and pointed to the car in the parking space. Luo Yang looked over and found that there was already someone sitting in the driver's seat.

I couldn't make out her features from a distance, but I was certain she was a woman.

"Anyway, I know the way. See you later."

Dong Xuan lightly touched Luo Yang's cheek with her lips, waved, and then walked straight to her car.

The two cars drove into Tomson Riviera one after the other.

Before getting on the elevator after they met up, Luo Yang finally saw the Persian cat in Dong Xuan's mouth.

Four words flashed through my mind instantly: innocent yet alluring!
Even late at night, she was still wearing her Ningbo Bank uniform, her shirt practically bursting at the seams. Despite her curvaceous figure, she had the face of a first love with a youthful, schoolgirl charm. Her voice was incredibly soft when she greeted Luo Yang, creating a stark contrast with her exaggerated physique.

"Mr. Luo, do you find my assistant, Mi Lai, acceptable?"

When Dong Xuan introduced her, she winked at Luo Yang: "Although she's not as dazzling as the finance majors from Tsinghua, Peking, Fudan, and Shanghai Jiao Tong Universities, her resume from Zhejiang University isn't bad either, and she comes with the aura of a beautiful woman, which is quite rare."

"Your assistant?"

As he stepped into the elevator, Luo Yang asked in surprise, "Why haven't I heard you mention this before?"

He genuinely suspected that Dong Xuan had temporarily brought in a beautiful woman to take the blame.

It's important to understand that not all beautiful women are the same, especially after she's been given the title of assistant bank manager.

“Last year’s college graduates were previously rotated through my headquarters in Ningbo. They officially came to work as my assistants after they received their diplomas in June this year.”

Dong Xuan frankly said, "I was in the same batch as Chu Weiwei and the others, but I didn't introduce them to you back then. You won't blame me, will you?"

Last year, Dong Xuan was determined to move to a bigger platform, including Shanghai Pudong Development Bank.

She proposed exchanging benefits with Luo Yang, and in doing so, she obtained Luo Yang's promise.

This promise is no simple matter. When Dong Xuan needs it, the funds in Luo Yang's private account will change according to her job changes, becoming a boost when she changes jobs.

She has paid a heavy price for this, including contributing a beautiful and unique woman like Chu Weiwei.

Luo Yang had no idea that she had hidden another one.

"What's there to blame?"

Luo Yang smiled and said, "I'm just curious, why did you decide to bring it out today?"

"Eh?"

Dong Xuan feigned surprise: "Didn't you want to see the Persian cat doing a backflip?"

Luo Yang: "."

Fortunately, the elevator arrived at his floor at that moment, which eased his embarrassment.

Dong Xuan knew when to stop and didn't continue teasing the topic.

"It's still more comfortable here."

After entering the house, Dong Xuan didn't change her shoes and walked straight to the floor-to-ceiling glass window of the large balcony in her high heels; "Look at the view of the Bund. Every time I stand here to admire it, I always have a different feeling."

Luo Yang handed a bottle of champagne to Mi Lai, and then walked to the floor-to-ceiling window.

Are you envious of the house or the state of being?

He stood side by side with Dong Xuan, their gazes also fixed on the Bund buildings across the river. He smiled and said, "Or are those buildings reminding you of the old Shanghai Bund, the financial center of the city back then?"

Some people's ambitions are so strong that you can sense them just by looking at them, even if they don't say them aloud.

"Perhaps they envy President Luo's situation."

Dong Xuan sighed and said, "Starting from scratch, you've built so many physical businesses in just three years, and each one is either making a fortune or has tremendous potential. I'd accept that you're a genius; after all, with so many people in China, it's normal for a few prodigies to emerge. But..."

Although she didn't say the rest aloud, it was obvious what she meant. It was one thing for an ordinary undergraduate student majoring in architecture to run a business and establish a high-tech industry, but to also display such extraordinary skills in the US crude oil futures market was something Dong Xuan found hard to comprehend.

The problem is that this guy is unreliable.

Focusing on the crude oil futures market was one thing, but then they suddenly had the idea to start a commercial bank.

All of Dong Xuan's hard work and dedication since graduation seemed so laughable in Luo Yang's casual dismissal.

What vice president? He's just the vice president of a branch of Ningbo Bank in Shanghai. What about jumping to a bigger platform to showcase his talents? He's just like Sun Wukong doing somersaults in the palm of Buddha's hand, unable to escape that world.

After all that, I ended up having to work for this little man.
"I was just messing around."

Luo Yang spoke frankly: "Sometimes I have a new idea in my head every now and then. I just happened to have made some money, so the chances of making a mistake became greater, which is why I had such a big heart. But then again, I am only responsible for the conception. The final implementation and subsequent development still need the help of industry experts like you. Otherwise, my ideas will just be castles in the air and will collapse sooner or later."

"Look at what you just said!"

After hearing Luo Yang's honest words, Dong Xuan became even more annoyed: "You just messed around, made some money, and thought about it casually. Your kind of success makes people like me, who climbed up step by step through hard work, seem ridiculous."

"Look what you said."

Luo Yang rarely saw Dong Xuan with a depressed expression, and he became even more Versailles-like: "The reason I went to trade crude oil futures was because I was short of money to acquire the headquarters building. I had no other choice but to take a risky approach. This kind of thing can happen once or twice, but not three times. It won't be the norm."

Dong Xuan turned to look at Luo Yang, and because of her height, her gaze was directly on his neck.

My teeth are itchy and I really want to take a bite, what should I do?
"President Luo, Mr. Dong."

Miley walked up to the two of them, holding two wine glasses upside down in one hand and an opened bottle of Perrier-Jouët in the other.

"Humph!"

Dong Xuan took a wine glass, and after Mi Lai poured a third of a glass of champagne, she tilted her head back and downed it in one gulp.

Then she turned around, her high heels clicking as she walked toward the sofa.

"Don't let your boss's glass be empty."

Luo Yang took a small sip of wine and said to Mi Lai, "But pour only a little each time, to prevent her from getting drunk."

Miley nodded, then took the wine and followed him into the living room.

"Let's talk about business."

A moment later, Luo Yang walked over and asked Dong Xuan, who was leaning against the sofa, "Have you had any contact with Lü Ruicheng, the head of Zhaohe Real Estate's Shanghai branch? What kind of person is he?"

He wasn't in a hurry at all about negotiating with Yongcheng Bank.

After all, a private agreement had already been reached with the bank's assistant, Chu Xinyao, and if the deal went through, it would be very beneficial for both Yongcheng Bank and Chu Xinyao personally.

However, things were different with Lu Ruicheng of Zhaohe Real Estate.

While the fact that this commercial building project has become an unfinished project may be partly due to the cash flow problems at Zhaohe's headquarters, doesn't the person in charge of the Shanghai branch also have some issues?

Luo Yang is considered a veteran in this field, and he sees things very clearly.

To be able to withstand the pressure from headquarters and borrow so much money from several banks, I would never believe that Lü Ruicheng didn't have some ulterior motives.

But if you want to acquire this building, you can't avoid him.

Therefore, Luo Yang wanted to learn about Lü Ruicheng from the sidelines so that he could better gauge the situation during their subsequent meeting and negotiations.

Normally, Dong Xuan would adjust herself once the conversation turned to serious matters.

However, an unexpected situation arose this time.

“I have met this Lü Ruicheng more than once. After all, I was the director of the credit department when he took out a loan from Yongcheng Bank.”

Dong Xuan swirled the wine glass in her hand, a slight smile playing on her lips.

"Want to know?"

She kicked off her high heels and placed her long, black-stockinged legs on Luo Yang's lap: "Ouch, my legs are so sore!"

Luo Yang: "."
