I can become stronger by paying salaries. I have one billion employees!

Chapter 684 A trillionaire eating at a roadside stall? You should go to the hospital, why are you eating late-night snacks!

Inside a luxuriously decorated office at Taiyao Real Estate Company.

Wang Jingtao was pinned to the floor by two burly men, his mouth and nose covered in bright red blood.

Cheng Jiale raised his right foot and stomped hard on Wang Jingtao's forehead. He dusted off the dust from his sleeve, curled his lips into a sneer, and said, "Little brother! I started working in this industry at sixteen, and I didn't dare to start a real estate company until I was thirty. This industry is very complex, and it's inevitable to take some detours. Consider your five million as tuition for Brother Le, okay?"

"Go ahead and kill me! Otherwise, I don't believe you'll never be alone again."

Wang Jingtao struggled fiercely.

Although his physical condition was not bad, it was significantly inferior to that of the two bodyguards employed by Cheng Jiale, and he was completely unable to move.

"Oh? Really? That's interesting."

Cheng Jiale smiled, then his face darkened, and he suddenly raised his foot and kicked Wang Jingtao hard in the head.

"Bang bang bang-!"

The floorboards clattered loudly when they were hit.

"I heard from Lao Li that you have two daughters, one in No. 6 Middle School and the other in the affiliated primary school. They're both very cute, right?"

Cheng Jiale stepped on Wang Jingtao's head, speaking in an extremely sinister tone.

He is best at manipulating honest people. Even if the other party is an honest person who has been driven to the brink of despair and is about to collapse, they cannot escape his calculations.

Every human being has a weakness.

"Damn it! Come at me! Don't touch my wife and kids."

Wang Jingtao panicked and quickly said...

"Do we still need to pay for the project?"

Cheng Jiale grinned, feeling relaxed and happy.

He's just an honest man. You think you can scare him by grabbing a kitchen knife and acting tough?
What a joke!
Upon hearing this, Wang Jingtao fell completely silent, tears streaming down his face.

He felt desperate, realizing that he was no match for Cheng Jiale and his gang.

"Tch! You're crying now? I was just kidding. You didn't actually think I'd go after your wife and kids, did you?"

Cheng Jiale couldn't help but burst into laughter, his laughter filled with sarcasm and disdain.

"Throw him out! Kid, I'm warning you one more time, I can be crazy. If I see you near the company again, watch out for your two daughters, understand?"

Cheng Jiale slapped Wang Jingtao's right cheek repeatedly.

……

……

It only takes a little over an hour to get from Luzhou to Chunshen via the expressway.

Chen Yansen played on his phone for a while, and when he looked up again, he saw the city wall not far away.

Meng Jie lay across the chair, her head resting on his lap, her eyes closed, her long eyelashes drooping quietly, clearly fast asleep.

About ten minutes later.

"Snapped!"

Chen Yansen patted her buttocks.

Meng Jie blinked, slowly waking up, and the first thing she saw was Chen Yansen's chin.

"Why did you hit me?" Meng Jie twisted her body and snuggled closer to Chen Yansen.

"Got home."

Chen Yansen reminded.

Upon hearing this, Mengjie struggled to get up and looked out the window through the glass.

The sign for "Guobin Bookstore" was particularly eye-catching!

Huang Boxiang brought the two of them directly to Beicheng.

"Let's go! You didn't visit Old Chen last time you went back to Chunshen, he still misses him."

Chen Yansen joked.

"Old Huang, can you open the trunk for me?"

Meng Jie rolled her eyes at Chen Yansen and then spoke to Huang Boxiang.

When she returned to Chunshen this time, she specially bought gifts for her parents and Chen Guobin.

Chen Yansen got out of the car.

Just as the security personnel in the Mercedes-Benz van were about to open the door and follow, their boss raised his hand and waved. They immediately understood, sat back down, and remained in the van on standby.

Holding the gifts, Meng Jie linked arms with Chen Yansen and walked towards the bookstore with a smile.

Chen Guobin was bending over, arranging magazines on the bookshelf. He placed several of his best-selling books, including "Reader", "Youth Digest", "Yilin", "Zui Xiao Shuo" and "Hua Huo", in the most prominent positions.

In fact, given Chen Yansen's current wealth, he has no need to continue working so hard to maintain this bookstore.

But if he were to stay at home completely, he really wouldn't know what to do to pass the time.

This bookstore, which has been open for more than 20 years, has become his second spiritual sustenance.

After all, he can't just be in his forties, holed up in a 500-square-meter villa, just wasting his days eating and waiting to die, can he?

"Boss, give me the latest issue of 'Youth Digest'."

Chen Yansen lowered his voice and called out from the doorway.

"Okay! Please wait a moment!"

Upon seeing someone come in, Chen Guobin immediately perked up, quickly picked up a copy of "Youth Digest," and turned around to hand it over steadily.

But as soon as he stretched his hand out halfway, he saw the two people outside the door.

Meng Jie is not tall and has a petite figure. Especially when she stands next to Chen Yansen, she looks even more like a child.

Chen Yansen, however, wore a relaxed smile. He stared at Chen Guobin, who remained motionless for a while, seemingly lost in thought. Then, he raised his right hand, waved it in front of Chen's eyes, and asked, "What's wrong? Not welcoming me?"

"Oh, Xiaojie's here. You didn't even say hello to Uncle Chen! I..."

Chen Guobin snorted coldly, threw the magazine on the newsstand, his expression changed, and he went to greet his 'daughter-in-law'.

"What's wrong with saying hello? You can't cook anyway."

Seeing that Old Chen didn't like him, Chen Yansen habitually started to tease him.

Just as Chen Guobin was about to frown and retort, he heard Meng Jie say softly, "Uncle Chen, I brought you a small gift. I don't know if you will like it. It's tea and red wine."

Upon hearing this, Old Chen grinned and immediately replied, "It's a gift from Xiao Jie, Uncle Chen likes everything."

At the same time, I was thinking to myself: It's better to have a daughter!

As he spoke, he couldn't help but think of Ye Qiuping, so he glared at Chen Yansen fiercely.

That scoundrel is a womanizer; he's neither like him nor Huizhen. I wonder whose genes he inherited.

Meng Jie giggled, her eyes crinkling into crescent moons, and handed over the gift bag. Chen Guobin took the gift, then brought out two chairs from inside the house, gesturing for Meng Jie and Chen Yansen to sit down. He then ran back to the counter and took out a pre-prepared red envelope from the drawer.

It's bulging, there are at least three or four hundred of them.

The only problem is that there are two more identical red envelopes in the drawer.

"Xiaojie, thank you for the gift, but I don't know what young people like, so here's a red envelope for you. Buy whatever you like."

As Chen Guobin spoke, he stuffed the red envelope into Meng Jie's hand.

Mengjie subconsciously accepted the red envelope, then paused slightly in surprise.

This isn't a red envelope, it's clearly a red brick!
"Can I take it?" Meng Jie asked softly, close to Chen Yansen, looking very obedient.

"Keep it," Chen Yansen replied.

Hearing Chen Yansen say this, Meng Jie carefully held the red envelope in her hand. The envelope had a gold-stamped "囍" (double happiness) character on it.

Chen Yansen didn't stay in the bookstore for long before he got up and left with Meng Jie.

"You're not eating at home tonight?" Chen Guobin was taken aback.

"You can cook?" Chen Yansen asked in return.

"..." Chen Guobin replied with an awkward smile, "We can go to the hotel."

"I just want to eat some home-cooked food." Chen Yansen paused and then said, "A man is in his prime at forty. Find me a stepmother, so that when I come home, I can have a hot meal."

"Get out!" Chen Guobin shouted with a stern face.

Chen Yansen chuckled, pulled Meng Jie into the car, and drove straight out of the city, intending to go to her house for a free meal.

Whether Meng Zhenguo welcomes him or not is not important; he is going to see Aunt Zhang.

As his Hongqi L5 sped through the streets of Chun Shen, it instantly attracted the attention of a large number of passersby.

Many people took out their phones to take pictures, but no one came forward to disturb them.

Even after Chen Yansen got off the bus and bought two cups of Mixue Ice Cream, the passersby from his hometown just smiled and waved at him.

Two weeks ago, Orange Cars started recruiting workers at its branch factory in Chun Shen, hiring more than 1600 people at once, with monthly salaries ranging from 7,000 to 10,000 yuan.

In 2014, such an income would have been enough to surpass 99% of the population.

It is said that in October, Senlian Capital will build another customer service center in the outer city and will recruit another 3000 people.

Who would dare to offend their own or their children's future boss?

Meng Jie sat to the side, looking at the kind glances of passersby outside the window, then at the Mixue Ice Cream in her hand, and said with a smile, "When I used to go shopping in Chun Shen, no one was ever this polite. Now, it's great, people wave to you even when you buy a cup of milk tea."

"They're not being polite to me, they're being polite to their 'rice bowl'."

Chen Yansen said dismissively.

The two then arrived at Chun Shen Yun Ding.

Before even entering, I could smell the aroma of braised duck feet and stewed eel with salted pork.

The meal lasted for more than two hours, and Chen Yansen didn't get up to leave until nine o'clock.

Meng Jie, Meng Zhenguo, and Zhang Yanni said they wanted to give it to Chen Yansen.

The two got into the car together and disappeared in a flash.

"What's the point of having a daughter? Sigh!"

Meng Zhenguo stood at the door, nudged his wife's arm, and sighed.

“I think it’s great. Xiaosen is a local, I know him well, and he’s perfect in both looks and ability.”

Zhang Yanni wore a faint smile; she was extremely satisfied with Chen Yansen.

Perfect?

Silly woman! Do you think perfection is a good thing?

Meng Zhenguo shook his head, too lazy to argue with Zhang Yanni. This woman, she's all talk and no action.

the other side.

Chen Yansen and Meng Jie strolled around outside the city, then found a food street and ordered potato chips, stinky tofu, and various kinds of grilled skewers.

Seeing this, some of the diners nearby mustered up their courage and brought over beer and braised dishes.

Chen Yansen wanted to refuse, but these people didn't give him the chance at all.

In the blink of an eye, his dining table was filled with various local specialties for late-night snacks.

at the same time.

Videos and photos of Chen Yansen returning to his hometown and drinking with passersby were posted on Douyin and quickly became a trending video.

At this moment, Wang Jingtao, who had been severely beaten, sat on the street, not daring to go home or to the company.

"Hurry to Chun Shen! Run fast, maybe we can still have a drink with Brother Sen!"

"To be honest, Brother Sen is really down-to-earth. He's worth trillions, but he loves eating at street food stalls just like us."

"Of course! Can you wait for me? I need to go home and get a resume."

"Dude, what are you doing? Handing over your resume in person, isn't that just playing moral blackmail?"

"Yeah! I never would have guessed you were so shrewd!"

"Okay, okay! I won't take my resume then!"

Several young people walked and talked as they headed towards the roadside.

Brother Sen?

A net worth of trillions?
Upon hearing this, Wang Jingtao's eyes immediately lit up, and hope surged back.

He figured that he and Chen Yansen were from the same hometown, so if he could ask Chen for help, there might still be a chance.

After all, in Chen Yansen's eyes, a nobody like Cheng Jiale is probably no different from a grasshopper.

But as soon as the thought crossed his mind, he suddenly realized: Why would someone help him for no reason?

The moment the idea popped into my head, my initial enthusiasm vanished instantly.

"We have to give it a try; what if it works?"

After a moment's thought, Wang Jingtao made up his mind, immediately took out his phone, and called a ride-hailing car.

But as soon as he got in the car and gave his destination, the driver was stunned. Looking at his blood-covered face, he kindly advised, "Brother, you're injured like this, why are you having a midnight snack? You should be going to the hospital!"

　Godfathers, wishing you a safe, smooth, and happy National Day. By the way, I'd like to ask for a monthly pass for October. There are double monthly passes from the 1st to the 7th.

　　The newbie won't ask for leave, but will still maintain a daily output of 10,000 words.
