Financial freedom starts with the daily intelligence system!

Chapter 196 He's even more handsome in person than in photos!
Joining Jiang Tao's MCN company was also an opportunity for Zhang Bo.

Furthermore, after thinking it over and over, he couldn't think of any harm that might do to him.

According to Jiang Tao, his future live streaming content will still be related to his current profession.

He still comes to his shop every day, doing what he's supposed to do, working the same way he always has.

All the store's revenue came from his business; Jiang Tao didn't take a single penny.

Getting paid by the boss while doing your own side jobs—what kind of amazing job is this?
As for the revenue sharing from live streaming...

At this moment, Zhang Bo's Kuaishou and Douyin accounts only have more than 3000 followers, and most of them are inactive or dead followers.

Each time he goes live, there are only three or four, or even five, online viewers in his live stream, which is pitifully few.

Forget about receiving gifts, he hardly gets any clicks even for free.

His current live-streaming revenue is basically zero, and Jiang Tao doesn't benefit from it at all.

To put it bluntly, his current Kuaishou and Douyin accounts are barely better than blank accounts.

Aside from Jiang Tao, I doubt there would be another "fool" who would offer him such a high salary!
This is practically free!
"Brother Jiang, isn't our salary a bit too high?"

Even Zhang Bo himself felt a little embarrassed, feeling that he didn't deserve the salary.

Putting himself in Jiang Tao's shoes, if he were in Jiang Tao's position, he would think 2000 was too much!
They pay me a high salary and shower me with resources and support. What have I done to deserve this?
Jiang Tao smiled and said, "You can see this as an investment I'm making in your future."

"I believe that in the near future, you will definitely become a successful live streamer!"

"So I think this investment is worthwhile."

Jiang Tao patted Zhang Bo on the shoulder with a smile, while making grand promises to him.

Behind his seemingly innocent smile lies a cunning and calculating nature.

He has the talent to judge people's worth, so he's unlikely to make a mistake.

Given time, Zhang Bo will definitely become famous and bring amazing returns to himself.

What's so special about a guaranteed monthly salary of 2?

It only amounts to a little over 20 a year.

Once Zhang Bo becomes famous, he might be able to earn back the money Jiang Tao invested in him in just one day.

The rest is pure profit!
Jiang Tao is quite confident in his investment in Zhang Bo.

"Thank you, Brother Jiang! Just you wait and see how I perform from now on!"

Feeling the high regard Jiang Tao held for him, Zhang Bo felt as if a thoroughbred horse had met its "Bole" (a legendary horse connoisseur).

This thoroughbred horse, which has been galloping freely for more than 20 years, has finally met its discerning patron!

At this moment, after Jiang Tao's encouragement, Zhang Bo's confidence was much higher than before.

Brother Jiang is right!
Even the simplest task is difficult to do well without repeated practice!
There are so many live streamers on Kuaishou and Douyin with hundreds of thousands, millions, or even tens of millions of followers.

I'm no worse than them, I can do it too!
"Let's do it after the Qingming Festival! After the festival, I'll go to your company to complete the onboarding process, and I'll arrange a dedicated director for you."

Jiang Tao is going back to his hometown tomorrow, and he also wants to take a break during the Qingming Festival holiday.

"Okay! I'll follow Brother Jiang's arrangements!"

Zhang Bo nodded excitedly in agreement, having no objection to Jiang Tao's arrangement.

[Zhang Bo's favorability towards you increases by 3, and your friendship level reaches 68 points (Friends)!]

As soon as Zhang Bo finished speaking, a notification appeared on Jiang Tao's retina, indicating that their friendship level had increased by 3 points.

Although it wasn't much, Jiang Tao was quite content.

"It's about time, let's find a place to have a meal together, the three of us."

"This meal is on me today to celebrate Zhang Bo joining our company."

Jiang Tao raised his hand and glanced at the green Submariner he was wearing on his wrist.

Before I knew it, it was already past 11 a.m.

It's time to find a place to have lunch.

After all the twists and turns, lunch today still ended up falling to him.

Although the three brothers hadn't known each other for long, they had a lot of fun together, and nobody really cared about the money spent on treating each other to meals.

Li Ming laughed heartily, "Haha, then I'll shamelessly mooch another meal off you guys today."

Jiang Tao asked, "You two are quite familiar with this area, so you can decide what to eat for lunch today. I'll just pay for it."

Zhang Bo suggested, "There's a pretty good private kitchen nearby, why don't we go there?"

"Haha, you're eyeing that account manager at that store, aren't you!"

Li Mingchao and Zhang Bo winked and joked, saying:

"That manager is definitely better than your ex-girlfriend!"

"You're talking nonsense, absolutely not. I just think that the food at that private restaurant is pretty good."

When Zhang Bo argued, his chubby face flushed slightly, as if he were a little embarrassed.

Jiang Tao laughed from the side, "Haha, let's go to that private restaurant Zhang Bo mentioned, and see what it's like."

Li Ming chimed in with a laugh, "I've been to that restaurant twice too. The food is really good, and the staff are quite pretty. They're a good match for Zhang Bo."

Zhang Bo laughed and cursed, "Damn it, can you stop teasing me? I'm not even close to anyone yet."

Li Ming laughed and said, "Then you'd better hurry up and work hard, we're all waiting to drink your wedding wine."

Jiang Tao urged, "Zhang Bo, hurry up and book a room. I also want to see what my future sister-in-law looks like."

"Okay, I'll order it right away."

After Zhang Bo finished speaking, he took out his phone, found a phone number, dialed it, and successfully booked a private room.

The three brothers chatted for a few more minutes in the shop before heading out together towards the nearest parking lot.

The three of them drove three cars toward the private chef restaurant where Zhang Bo had placed his order.

In about ten minutes, a Land Rover Range Rover, a Mercedes-Benz G-Class, and an Audi A4 drove into a paid underground parking lot in succession.

After parking the car, the three brothers chatted and laughed as they took the elevator upstairs, turned left after exiting the building, and entered a hutong (alleyway).

After walking for about three minutes in the alley, I arrived at the entrance of a courtyard house with the words "Love Fills the Courtyard" hanging on it.

"This is it, Brother Jiang, please!"

Zhang Bo gestured towards the door, inviting them in, and led Jiang Tao and Li Ming into the courtyard.

"Welcome to the Courtyard Full of Love. Please follow me."

As soon as the three entered, a tall young woman in a maroon cheongsam led the way for them.

I gave my name and mobile phone number at the service desk.

The three were led into the east wing of the courtyard house by the receptionist.

Without much pleasantries or small talk, the three brothers got straight to ordering.

One person ordered four dishes, making a total of 12 dishes, and also ordered three bottles of Moutai.

Less than ten minutes after we ordered, the waiters started serving the dishes one after another.

All the ordered dishes were served within twenty minutes.

"Brother Jiang, let me offer you the first toast to thank you for recognizing my talent!"

After Zhang Bo poured wine for the three of them using a decanter, he first raised his glass and toasted Jiang Tao.

"Let's not talk about such formalities as brothers. Let's not talk about gratitude or anything like that."

Jiang Tao smiled, raised his glass, and clinked it with Zhang Bo's. The two brothers then drank their drinks in one gulp.

"Let's have a second drink together, the three of us! In this vast sea of ​​people, to meet among billions is a kind of fate!"

May our friendship last forever!

"Done!"

"Done!"

The three brothers clinked glasses, chatted about this and that, and the atmosphere was incredibly harmonious.

Although Jiang Tao is four or five years older than Li Ming and Zhang Bo.

The three brothers got along very well, with no barriers or generation gaps. [Your friendship with Li Ming has increased by 1 point, currently at 65! (Friend)]

[Your friendship with Zhang Bo has increased by 1 point, now totaling 68 points! (Friend)]

As the meal drew to a close, two notification messages appeared on Jiang Tao's retina.

His friendship level with Li Ming and Zhang Bo increased by 1 point, bringing him one step closer to reaching 90 points.

After eating and drinking his fill, Jiang Tao went to the service desk to pay the bill.

The meal, including drinks and service fees, cost a total of 1 yuan plus a few hundred yuan.

"Brother Jiang, Brother Jiang! Two o'clock! Two o'clock!"

Just as Jiang Tao finished scanning the code to pay, Li Ming behind him suddenly tugged at his arm and whispered a reminder.

Jiang Tao turned his head and looked in the direction Li Ming pointed out, and saw a tall girl walking gracefully towards them.

The girl was wearing a light gray women's suit skirt and black stockings.

Although her features weren't as delicate as Xu Li's and Jiang Yi's, they were still about six or seven out of ten.

Walking down the street, you'd definitely turn heads.

"That's the girl Zhang Bo is currently dating."

Li Ming winked and introduced Jiang Tao from behind.

"She's not bad looking."

Jiang Tao smiled and nodded in approval.

"Tamaken."

When Zhang Bo saw Huang Yuyan, his eyes were only on her, and a happy smile appeared on his chubby face.

He felt happy just seeing Hwang Yu-yeon every day.

"Zhang Bo, I'm so sorry. I was entertaining some distinguished guests just now, so I neglected you."

Huang Yuyan stopped in front of Jiang Tao and the others and explained in a low voice.

"It's alright, it's alright, we've already eaten and drunk our fill."

"Yu Yan, you know Li Ming, this is Brother Jiang, my good brother, my good buddy."

“Brother Jiang, this is my friend Huang Yuyan.”

Zhang Bo smiled and waved his hand, indicating that he didn't mind, and then turned around to introduce Jiang Tao and Huang Yuyan to each other.

"Hello Brother Jiang, it's a pleasure to meet you, and thank you for patronizing our business."

As Huang Yuyan smiled and nodded to Jiang Tao in greeting, she also subtly glanced at him.

As Huang Yuyan looked at him, she suddenly felt that Jiang Tao looked familiar, as if she had seen him before.

But she was absolutely certain that this was the first time she had met Jiang Tao.

This feeling is very strange.

"Hello Huang Yuyan, it's a pleasure to meet you too."

Jiang Tao smiled and nodded to Huang Yuyan, as if to say hello.

suddenly!

A sudden thought flashed through Huang Yuyan's mind—she remembered seeing Jiang Tao somewhere before!

On my roommate He Jing's phone!

"Huh, what's wrong, Yu Yan?"

Seeing that Huang Yuyan was staring at Jiang Tao, Zhang Bo asked her a question, somewhat puzzled.

After regaining her senses, Huang Yuyan smiled awkwardly and explained:
"Oh, it's nothing, it's nothing. It's just that Brother Jiang looks a bit like a customer I knew before."

Jiang Tao chuckled and said, "Really? I have such an average face, there are too many people who look like me."

"Brother Jiang, please don't be modest here. If you have an average face, then we'll all look like ugly monsters."

Li Ming chuckled and made a self-deprecating remark.

To be honest, in terms of looks, he and Zhang Bo combined are not as good-looking as Jiang Tao.

At best, he and Zhang Bo were both good-looking, fair-skinned, and somewhat handsome.

Jiang Tao has well-defined and sculpted features, an oval face, and striking eyebrows and bright eyes; he is the type of handsome man that fits the Chinese aesthetic.

Even though she's now in her thirties, her charm hasn't diminished at all.

Especially recently, his career has been going smoothly, and his overall energy and spirit are completely different from before, showing a great change.

He possesses a combination of qualities such as sunshine, handsomeness, and confidence.

Furthermore, she was dressed in high-end clothing.

Gone is the former air of poverty; now, a subtle air of nobility emanates from it.

Jiang Tao embodies the charm of a middle-aged man to the fullest.

"He's even more handsome and has more charisma in person than in photos. No wonder He Jing likes this older man."

After meeting Jiang Tao in person, Huang Yuyan had a very high opinion of him.

After getting to know each other and chatting for a while, Huang Yuyan's phone rang; she had a client to meet.

After a brief farewell, the three brothers went out together and headed towards the parking lot.

Since the three brothers had all been drinking at noon, they called three designated drivers to take them home.

Zhang Bo and Li Ming both live nearby, while Jiang Tao lives the furthest away.

When the designated driver brought the car to the Baigezhuang residential area, it was already past 4:30 PM, almost 5 PM.

"Boss, we've arrived. If possible, please give us a five-star review."

The designated driver was a middle-aged man in his forties with a kind and honest appearance.

After parking the car, she whispered something to Jiang Tao, who was sitting in the back seat, and she couldn't tell if he was asleep or resting with his eyes closed.

"Did we arrive so quickly?"

When Jiang Tao opened his eyes, he saw the familiar scenery outside the car window and realized that he was already downstairs in his own building.

"The driver drove very smoothly, I have to give him a good review. Thank you for your help, here's a pack of cigarettes for you to smoke on the way."

As Jiang Tao spoke, he opened the center console and took out a packet of Da Tian Ye (a type of herbal tea) and handed it to the designated driver.

"thank you boss!"

The designated driver was also a heavy smoker. When he saw that Jiang Tao had handed him a pack of Da Tian Ye cigarettes that cost around 100 yuan, he thanked him and accepted the cigarettes.

"Boss, if there's nothing else, I'll be going now."

"By the way, this is my business card. If you need a designated driver in the future, you can also call the number on my business card."

As the designated driver spoke, he took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Jiang Tao.

After Jiang Tao took the business card, he saw that the name displayed on it was Jia Guilin.

"Alright, then take care, Master Jia."

Jiang Tao casually placed Jia Guilin's business card into the armrest box.

"Wishing you booming business and a happy and fulfilling life, boss!"

After greeting Jiang Tao with a fawning smile, Jia Guilin got out of the car and left.

Jiang Tao got out of the car and turned to go upstairs. Suddenly, he had a whim and glanced at Jia Guilin's departing figure.

Name: Jia Guilin

[Talent]: Safe driving. (Never getting into a car accident)

[Career Path]: Race car driver (5 stars), driver (3 stars).

"Wow, he's a race car driver whose talent was wasted on a designated driver job."

Seeing Jia Guilin's talent and career path, Jiang Tao exclaimed with a smile.
