My minimum living allowance is credited to my account every day with 1000 million yuan

Ma Jian walked side by side with He Qing and Wang Ping, while Lu Fei and General Manager Yang lagged behind by half a step!
He Qing only found out today that Luffy had invited Ma Jian to dinner and also invited Li Man!

Li Man is also in charge of the store decoration for Ma Jian. Luffy will be opening a lot of stores soon, so he can introduce them to Li Man all at once!
That's the nature of the industry. Some people can't get business even if they beg and plead, while Li Man is overwhelmed with orders and can't possibly finish them all!
I watched He Qing leave for the private room they had arranged to meet!

Luffy noticed that two young women, dressed simply and looking dashing, had been following He Qing not far away!
This sight reminded him of Yan Yue from the last time they were at the K store!

"Stop looking, those are Mr. He's security personnel!"

Because of what happened last night, important figures now require security when they come out. Mr. He has four bodyguards: two female bodyguards for close protection, and two male bodyguards to provide backup.

Luffy and President Yang took a breath. The Empress's travels are indeed different!
Fortunately, Mr. Chen didn't bring bodyguards last night, otherwise he wouldn't have had a chance to show his skills. Judging from Mr. Ma's description, Mr. Chen rarely goes out without bodyguards these days. He really hit the jackpot yesterday!
Qin Xiaoyan and Li Han were already in the private room. When they saw He Qing and Wang Ping come in, they quickly stood up!
There was another man and a woman inside the private room!
"Zhao Ying?"

"Didn't you say you were in Shanghai?"

Wang Ping asked in surprise!
The woman was their college classmate. After graduation, she went to Shanghai and they haven't seen her since!

Qin Xiaoyan laughed and said, "Forgive me for keeping it a secret, I wanted to give you a surprise!"

Zhao Ying is not only their classmate, but also He Qing and Wang Ping's roommate!
She didn't contact He Qing and Wang Ping, but instead contacted Qin Xiaoyan first. This wasn't surprising, since they weren't in the same circle when they were in school!
He Qing and Wang Ping are so beautiful that Zhao Ying can be called a beauty on her own, but she looks like an ugly duckling next to them!

As a person with self-respect, who would want to be relegated to a supporting role? That's why she preferred to play with Qin Xiaoyan!

"I came back because my husband moved to Jiangzhou for work!"

"Let me introduce you, this is my boyfriend Li Da, he's from the same clan as Xiaoyan's boyfriend Li Han!"

Li Da looked somewhat proud, nodded arrogantly to He Qing and Wang Ping, and gave a slight smile as a greeting!
He Qing didn't take it to heart and sat down next to Qin Xiaoyan!
Zhao Ying added, "My boyfriend works in the decoration prop manufacturing industry. Because of the recent surge in business in Jiangzhou, the company sent him to Jiangzhou to establish a branch office and appoint him as the general manager!"

It's clear that Zhao Ying is full of pride when she talks about her boyfriend's job!

Qin Xiaoyan knew He Qing's worth; Li Da's achievements were nothing compared to hers!

However, objectively speaking, it is already quite remarkable for Li Da to have such a position at his age!

"Zhao Ying, you're so lucky! Have you landed a job yet? Are you planning to work at Li Da's company?"

Zhao Ying shook her head!

"It wouldn't be good for us to work in the same company. I can't hold Li Da back from his career development, so I'm planning to use his connections to get me a job at another company!"

Li Da glanced at He Qing and Wang Ping, a hint of smugness in his eyes, and said, "Actually, it's nothing. Zhao Ying is just overthinking things. But the job I arranged for her is pretty good. She works at the largest decoration company in Jiangzhou. It's not easy for ordinary people to get in. She only agreed because she gave me face!"

Li Han complimented, "President Li is truly impressive. You've only just arrived in Jiangzhou and you've already managed to assign someone to the biggest decoration company here!"

"Hey, our store renovation is finally finished. If only we had known Mr. Li earlier, we might have saved some money on the renovation!"

“We’re only responsible for the props. The interior decoration is all done by the company I was going to introduce Zhao Ying to. But your project is too small, they probably won’t be interested!”

The largest decoration company, He Qing thought to herself, and exchanged a glance with Wang Ping. She remembered that Li Man had said that afternoon that their performance and profit in Q1 of this year were already the absolute No.1 in Jiangzhou!
Wang Ping couldn't help but ask, "Do you know the boss of that company? How could you just let someone in like that?"

When the beautiful woman asked for advice, Li Da immediately smiled and explained, "How could the boss of such a big company personally handle the affairs of a junior employee? I asked one of their department leaders to handle it. But I also know their boss; I've toasted her before!"

You could tell he considered toasting someone a big deal, something that would make him look good!
What's the name of the company you're talking about?

Li Da proudly declared, "It's called Jiangzhou Manhua Construction Decoration Engineering Co., Ltd.! If you're in Jiangzhou and know anything about this industry, you should have heard of this company!"

Wang Ping smiled. Of course she had heard about it. She had just heard about it that afternoon. The boss of that company was sitting right across from her, speaking in a soft voice. He even wanted to give He Qing and her house a free renovation!
This company is one of Lehman's enterprises!
It seems that the prop manufacturer Li Da works for is collaborating with Li Man!

Li Man's company purchases props from them, so they are considered one of their major clients!

Li Da is clearly not qualified to speak with Li Man; he can only know one of her department leaders or managers.
Qin Xiaoyan handed the menu to He Qing, "Take a look with Pingping and see if there's anything you want to eat. Just order!"

He Qing shook her head and said, "Let Zhao Ying take a look!"

Qin Xiaoyan handed it to Zhao Ying. Although Zhao Ying's return to Jiangzhou was a welcome-back event for her, she still prioritized He Qing's feelings!

Zhao Ying took it, glanced at it, and exclaimed, "Wow, the prices here are really high!"

He handed it back to Qin Xiaoyan, saying, "You keep an eye on it, we can all do it!"

Then he asked, "He Qing, what kind of work do you do now?"

Qin Xiaoyan and Li Han glanced at He Qing upon hearing this. They remembered that she had said she was unemployed last time, but an unemployed person drives a Porsche 911 and stays at the Junxiao Lakeside Hotel for free?
They both guessed that He Qing must have a powerful boyfriend, but she said she didn't last time.
"I now work for a charitable foundation!"

Li Han and Qin Xiaoyan glanced at her but didn't say anything. He Qing went to work.
Where is Pingping?

Qin Xiaoyan laughed and said, "She has a secure job at a bank!"

Zhao Ying said enviously, "Pingping has a great job!"

"What's so great about it?" Wang Ping shook her head. "I also went to work at the charity foundation with He Qing!"

Ah ~!

Qin Xiaoyan was so surprised that she forgot to order the food!
Zhao Ying was very puzzled, while Li Da said, "You're being a bit frivolous. Bank jobs are very stable. Charitable foundations don't have profit targets, the work is easy, but there's limited room for advancement, and it's hard to see a significant increase in income, since it's not a profit-making organization!"

Limited room for growth?

He Qing earns 300 million yuan a year and is entitled to a Rolls-Royce Phantom. This is a prime example right in front of us. How can you say that there is limited room for advancement?
If I could actually sit in that position, I wouldn't trade it for the presidency of a small country!
"Yes, Pingping, what are you thinking?"

Zhao Ying and Qin Xiaoyan both sighed, feeling that Wang Ping's choice was a bit of a pity!
After ordering, I asked the waiter to bring the food as soon as possible!
Wang Ping smiled and asked, "What are you thinking?"

My base salary has increased sixfold, and my boss is my best friend. Isn't that enough?

Let's add one more thing: we can get in touch with President Chen here. This will allow us to have a deeper exchange with each other. Is that enough? With President Chen by our side, what does it matter if we lose the whole world?

"People naturally strive for better things!"

Zhao Ying shook her head. Wang Ping's brain must be fried!
It's one thing for He Qing to work at a charity foundation, but for someone like you who works at a bank to quit your job and go to a charity foundation, isn't that just plain stupid?

"Zhao Ying, when will you be on duty?"

Zhao Ying then looked at Li Da!
"Anytime is fine. I've already spoken to them over there. But I hope Zhao Ying can rest a bit more. Why rush back to work? I earn over 3 a month now, which is enough to support her!" When Li Da mentioned over 3 a month, he looked around the room, expecting to be met with a round of shock, but it turned out that everyone acted as if they hadn't heard him!
Doesn't earning 3 yuan a month in Jiangzhou deserve praise?

It's so unfulfilling!
Little did he know that not only did He Qing and Wang Ping look down on this income, but even Qin Xiaoyan and the other woman didn't think that 30,000 yuan was anything special; it was just half a month's profit for them!

"But Zhao Ying's job is pretty good, she earns over 8000 a month!"

Earning over 3 a month went unnoticed, and earning 8000 brought even less applause!
"Zhao Ying, you're not working right now, so you can come over to my shop and have some fun. I'll treat you to milk tea!"

The waiter started serving the dishes. Looking at the king crab and lobster on the table, Zhao Ying stuck out her tongue. "Xiaoyan, why are you being so extravagant? There are no outsiders here!"

"It's not extravagant at all. If we really want to eat something luxurious, He Qing will have to treat us next time!"

She meant that He Qing had a diamond VIP card from Junxiao Hotel Group, which allowed her to eat for free, so she didn't need to look at the price of even the most expensive dishes!

Zhao Ying and Li Da didn't understand what she meant and thought she was joking!
"OK, I'll arrange it next time!"

It's only right for classmates to take turns hosting!

"Xiaoyan, you're the boss, don't bully us employees. He Qing works at a charity foundation, how much money can she earn in a month? Do you expect her to treat us to a lavish meal!"

Zhao Ying didn't mean to belittle He Qing; she was just jokingly teasing Qin Xiaoyan!
Qin Xiaoyan stuck out her tongue. "I bullied her?"
When you see her Porsche 911 at the end, you'll know who the real queen is!

Next time I go to Junxiao Lakeside Hotel, I must choose the most expensive spot, take photos and post them on social media to remember the trip. After all, He Qing has a card that allows her to use it for free, so she won't feel guilty at all!

That evening, Li Da and Li Han drank alcohol, while the ladies had some soft drinks. They were all classmates, so it was quite casual.
Halfway through the meal, there was a knock on the door of the private room!

I thought they were just waiters, but it turned out there were several people coming in together!
He Qing immediately spotted Ma Jian, Luffy, and Li Man as she faced the entrance!

Before she could get up, Li Da suddenly stood up and respectfully greeted her, "President Li!"

The branch manager, who had been quite arrogant all night, was now acting like a shy young man!
Li Man probably didn't even know he was calling her, so she acted as if nothing had happened.

She only has eyes for President He!
I just had dinner with Mr. Ma and Mr. Lu. Mr. Ma wanted to come over and offer a toast, saying that Mr. He from the Junxiao Charity Foundation was there. Li Man, not wanting to be left behind, brought a bottle of Moutai and followed along, even though she hadn't drunk any alcohol all night!
When Ma Jian realized that He Qing wasn't the hostess today, he smiled and said, "I'm sorry to have come uninvited! I've come over to offer Ms. He a toast!"

Qin Xiaoyan immediately realized that the person was looking for He Qing, so she smiled politely!

He Qing, holding the drinks, noticed they all drank baijiu (Chinese liquor), and said to Li Han, "Give me some baijiu!"

Ma Jian quickly stopped him, saying, "No need, you can just have a beverage!"

He Qing thought about it for a moment, but didn't insist. She simply clinked glasses with him and drank together.

Ma Jian also had a drink with Wang Ping, but his attitude was clearly not as respectful as he was towards He Qing!

Luffy was second in line, bending over at almost a 90-degree angle, raising his glass with both hands and saying, "Mr. He, I toast you!"

Li Da had been watching this side, unaware of what was going on. But when he saw Luffy's face clearly, his expression changed drastically. He recognized him – this was the big boss of Jiexun Sports!
He once visited my company, and the company boss personally accompanied him, introducing the craftsmanship and quality of his products, and doing everything he could to please Mr. Lu!
Many of the props used by their company were provided by their own company, which was also a major client of their own company. Why did they look like a young man who had just entered the workforce and was learning to run a business, showing both respect and fear in front of He Qing?

It was the first time He Qing and Luffy had met, and he was so polite, so she just smiled and said, "Thank you!"

After taking a small sip of his drink, Luffy said respectfully, "Thank you, Mr. He!"

It was as if He Qing's willingness to take a small sip of her drink was a huge favor to Luffy!
Li Da's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. Wasn't Zhao Ying supposed to work at a charity foundation? Why would a big shot like President Lu treat her with such reverence?

When it was Li Man's turn to offer a toast, Li Da paid even more attention. He had just greeted President Li, but she hadn't paid any attention to him. Li Da didn't think much of it, after all, a big shot like President Li wouldn't even notice him!

At this moment, Li Man stepped forward. He Qing had already seen her, turned around and clinked glasses with her. Li Man quickly bent down!
No way, why is President Li being so humble towards He Qing?
He Qing then said, "President Li, it's nice to see you again. I hope you will continue to support me in the future!"

Li Man hurriedly replied, "It's your kindness to give me this opportunity. Please feel free to ask for anything!"

Li Da's glasses shattered on the ground. This was the imposing and powerful CEO Li that the company boss had mentioned, and the formidable and heroic woman that he had encountered on several occasions when he accompanied the leaders to toast her.

Her attitude towards He Qing seemed no different from how he treated her.
At this moment, Ma Jian and the others said, "Let us pay our respects to the host again, we apologize for the intrusion!"

They didn't know what Qin Xiaoyan did, but since she was He Qing's friend, she was quite polite!
He Qing introduced them to each other, explaining that Qin Xiaoyan was her classmate who now runs a milk tea business!

Ma Jian laughed and said, "Then we can still be colleagues!"

Qin Xiaoyan's first reaction was that this young man also ran a milk tea shop, but since he came with President Lu and President Li, it seemed like he was the leader.
Seeing Qin Xiaoyan's confusion, he smiled slightly and said, "Xiaoyan, Mr. Ma is the chairman of Dongjian Trading. He has two tea brands, both of which are currently in full cooperation with Junxiao Commercial Management!"

Ah ~!

Qin Xiaoyan blushed deeply. She had thought they were in the same industry, but it turned out they were indeed in the same industry—one sold hand tractors, and the other sold Mercedes-Benz cars!

Since Luffy wasn't familiar with He Qing, Ma Jian introduced him: "This is Mr. Luffy, the chairman of Jiexun Sports! You can contact him to buy international sports and trendy brands in the future!"

Qin Xiaoyan and Li Da bumped into Luffy. Although Luffy was polite, he didn't have the same attitude he had towards He Qing!
When Li Man was introduced, Qin Xiaoyan and Li Han couldn't help but glance at Li Da and Zhao Ying when they heard that she was the chairman of Jiangzhou Manhua Architectural Decoration Engineering Co., Ltd.

Zhao Ying opened her mouth wide and turned to look at her boyfriend. "This is my big boss?"

Li Da's face was flushed red. This scene was a big blow to him. He had previously thought that He Qing, who was just loafing around at the charity foundation, had such a big face. Even big business bosses like President Li and President Lu were as humble as little henchmen in front of her!
He had previously boasted about knowing the owner of Jiangzhou Manhua Architectural Decoration Engineering Co., Ltd., and how good his relationship was with the company's management. However, when President Li came in, she ignored him when he greeted her. Of course, he knew it was because Li Man didn't recognize him and didn't expect that he would recognize her and call out to her!
After Ma Jian and the others left, the atmosphere at the table became a bit strange. Everyone was afraid that Li Da would feel embarrassed, so they all ate in silence!

Finally, Zhao Ying couldn't hold back any longer, "He Qing, are you very familiar with these guys? I heard them call you President He!"

She didn't really care about "General Manager He" because nowadays, everyone is called "General Manager" or something, it's all overused!

"We happen to have some collaborations recently. I met Mr. Ma a while ago, but I only met Mr. Lu and Mr. Li today!"

Are you already this afraid of me after just meeting me?

Li Da was even more confused. Neither Li Man nor Luffy were low-key people, especially Luffy, who had a bandit-like air about him and was often arrogant and domineering. Yet, he was as obedient as a grandson in front of He Qing!
Given his attitude just now, Li Da suspected that even if He Qing slapped him, he would still have to say, "Thank you for the reward, Master!"

Qin Xiaoyan had to re-evaluate her classmate. She had thought of her as incredibly impressive before, but looking at her social circle today, she realized that she knew many important people, and those important people couldn't help but feel inferior in front of her!

I need to maintain close contact with this classmate from now on and try to get into her circle more often. There must be some amazing things about her that I never imagined!
She glanced at Wang Ping and noticed that Wang Ping also looked envious! She was already quite successful, and the people who toasted her earlier were very polite to her, but she could tell that it was all because of He Qing's influence!

The maidservant who accompanied the bride was resentful, thinking, "One day I'll be promoted!"
She felt that she was just one step away from being officially appointed; once that happened, she would immediately enjoy the treatment befitting an empress, and she and He Qing could then support each other! (End of Chapter)
