Reborn as a female internet celebrity in a county town

Chapter 320 There must be a pretty girl in this neighbor's house, right?

Lin Lang could sense Yang Xi's extreme nervousness; after all, that rapid heartbeat couldn't lie.

Yang Xi's ability to succeed in the unconventional online world is a testament to her exceptional talent; at least visually, few can match her stunning figure.

For example, if someone wears yoga pants, their buttocks will look very saggy, so they must choose those with special buttock pads to support the curves.

Also, those with short legs need to use photo editing software, and those with a noticeable belly need to wear waist trainers...

Yang Xi never uses those.

Upon experiencing the full and soft feel of it, Lin Lang released it after a short while.

"Are you stupid? You can't just let anyone touch this."

"I won't give it to anyone else, but I'll give it to my brother."

Yang Xi pulled Lin Lang's hand over again.

Lin Lang casually put his arm around Yang Xi's shoulder and said, "Don't think too much right now. Spend time with your mother, and then continue filming as usual. We'll be in Shanghai for the New Year. I've already spoken with the doctor, and I've arranged for you to take your mother back for those few segments. I've also bought some New Year's goods for you, and they'll be delivered in the next couple of days. Also, I'll give you a contact number later. If you need a car or need any help, just call that number..."

Yang Xi said softly, "Brother, I haven't thought that much about it. I will definitely work hard. It's just... I also want to see you occasionally."

"Isn't it easy to see me? I'll come see you whenever I have time."

Will it happen again in the future?

"Sure."

Upon hearing this, Yang Xi immediately snuggled closer to Lin Lang.

She must know this is wrong, after all, Lin Lang already has a girlfriend.

But what does a borderline female internet celebrity like her need morality or face?

Holding a beautiful girl in your arms is very helpful for falling asleep.

Even though Lin Lang wasn't very sleepy at first, he did push-ups for a few minutes, and at a high frequency, which eventually consumed a lot of his energy.

After his mind calmed down, and with the soothing atmosphere provided by the beautiful girl in his arms, he fell asleep soon after.

Yang Xi is the same.

She is still exploring her life, unsure of which direction it will take.

She had imagined her original life trajectory. If Lin Lang hadn't intervened, she would be in the darkest moment of her life right now. Even if she knew there were traps in some contracts, she would definitely have signed them without hesitation.

Life didn't give her any choice at all.

……

Sunday.

He Qiang woke up early in the morning and immediately checked his post. Then, he went to settle accounts with those people in chronological order.

He adjusted the price to 1:3 the day before yesterday, and other buyers in the black market have also tacitly accepted this unified price. Whoever can get it depends on their own ability.

In fact, you can tell from the post that He Qiang received a total of more than 54,000 gold coins, while most others received several thousand, ten or twenty thousand, and the most they received was only 28,000.

In fact, after the price was agreed upon, He Qiang knew that the people who were buying the gold coins were probably not ordinary people, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to reach an agreement so quickly.

This thing is really addictive. Once you've decided on its value, adding a penny or fifty cents doesn't actually cost much...

But nobody actually added it.

This requires a lot of willpower!

Originally, He Qiang had asked his son to handle this, but later his son went to the countryside to find people and became too busy to manage it himself.

In addition to this, He Qiang also got everyone in the company involved. Anyway, it didn't take up much time; all they had to do was sign in once a day. He paid them five yuan a day.

This is essentially a disguised way of giving bonuses to the company's employees.

It doesn't matter if the company asks my family or friends for help, as long as the number of gold coins is correct.

The company employees haven't transferred the coins yet, and he doesn't want to wait any longer; it's better to gather the coins as soon as possible.

So on Sunday, he took a million dollars in cash and started collecting gold coins from various projects within the company, distributing them directly as cash.

This money doesn't belong to the company, so there are no accounting issues.

If it's company money, then tax issues will arise, and the finance department will probably be overwhelmed.

Arriving at the Xincheng Used Car Center in Tianshui County, I felt very satisfied seeing the densely packed customers.

They were really densely packed. He built a total of twenty used car service centers in several nearby counties and cities, all of which were financed through loans. He also had more than twenty online sales teams who filmed short stories and videos every day to attract a large number of netizens to buy cars.

People even come from thousands of kilometers away to visit.

There's no other reason than that it spreads widely enough.

With the Chinese New Year approaching, more and more people are looking to buy luxury cars. New cars are expensive, which puts a lot of pressure on them, while used luxury cars are the first choice for many people to show off when they go back to their hometowns.

He Qiang was incredibly impressed with Lin Lang's previous setup, which used the perspective of a pawnshop to delve into the world of secondhand luxury cars, helping Xincheng Pawnshop to gain a foothold.

Subsequently, Lin Lang also helped to develop several new scripts and plots, and the average cycle for He Qiang's used luxury cars became seven days.

It's difficult to sell used luxury cars, primarily because the demand is scattered; not everyone needs them.

However, the reach of the internet has directly brought together those scattered demands.

The normal operating cycle for a used luxury car is between two and six months, and for some models it can even be up to a year.

On He Qiang's side, the time was shortened by several times.

With a seven-day timeframe, the capital tied up in capital is very low. Although the profit may be lower, the overall earnings are actually higher.

The line covered four surrounding cities, and He Qiang was practically draining the demand from those four cities.

It indirectly covered five surrounding provinces, and He Qiang also attracted some of the demand from these five provinces.

This particular shop in Tianshui County sells the most cars every day because it's located right next to the national highway, which is a popular route.

In the days leading up to the Chinese New Year, they were selling forty or fifty cars every day; otherwise, He Qiang wouldn't have felt that the crowds were so dense.

We have over a dozen sales staff, and now we don't even have time to film short videos. We also have over a dozen people in charge of car maintenance, and we can't keep up with the demand.

He Qiang waited here for a while and then spotted a familiar face.

Pu Min drove over here and watched from a short distance away.

He Qiang walked over and called out, "President Pu, what brings you here?"

Pu Min said, "Of course I came to check on President He's business. It's doing really well..."

"Haha, it's all thanks to Brother Lin Lang's guidance. Brother Lin Lang is a god-like figure when it comes to marketing."

Pu Min asked calmly, "President He, would you mind telling me about the daily sales figures recently?"

"It's convenient. I don't have any secrets here. In Tianshui County, the sales volume is about six million a day. Others are a bit less, with sales of one or two million, and some even four or five million. On average, each service center can easily make three million. I have twenty such service centers."

Pu Min: "..."

That's 60 million in sales.

Although the market can't be like this all year round, even if it's a slump, achieving sales of one or two billion yuan a year shouldn't be a problem, right?

Even with a net profit margin of only 5%, He Qiang could still earn around 100 million yuan a year. And these figures are based on a very conservative calculation method.

In reality, the annual sales volume may be three to four billion.

Zhongsheng Group, a top domestic auto service provider, has annual sales of just over 100 billion yuan, with its used car business generating only over 10 billion yuan in sales.

He Qiang, in the blink of an eye, has become qualified to rival top-tier car service providers.

With annual business worth billions, their influence with banks is immense.

Whenever Xincheng Used Cars encounters any problems, the bank will likely provide funds immediately to help them overcome the difficulties.

After all, the proportion of car purchase loans is quite high, and car loans are among the best types of loans.

The loan term is short, the total amount of funds is not large, and the interest is quite considerable.

Most importantly, there is no fear of supply disruptions.

Unlike mortgages, which have too much leverage (a 20% down payment is equivalent to four times leverage) and have a longer term, the risk of unexpected events is greater.

"Mr. He, Xincheng Used Cars should be an independent company, right?"

"Yes, it is indeed independent."

Is it convenient to become a shareholder?

Pu Min was genuinely envious of this thing: a large cash flow, high-quality business, and extremely high operational efficiency.

He Qiang gave an awkward smile and said, "I can't agree to this. I'll ask Brother Lin Lang when he gets back in a couple of days."

"Lin Lang also has shares?"

"No, but I'll listen to Brother Lin Lang on this matter."

Pu Min: "..."

Why do you ask Lin Lang about food even when you're not eating?

Why are you asking others when it's your own wholly-owned company?
"Alright then, when is Lin Lang coming back? Let's have dinner together sometime?"

"I don't know yet, but his family is having a banquet on the 28th of the twelfth lunar month. Brother Lin Lang will definitely be back then. I'll ask him for help."

Pu Min: "..."

The banquet has already been held, why are you still asking?
Why don't you just ask me to come along?

Who would turn away guests when hosting a banquet?

"Okay, I'll be going now. Let me know if there's any news, Mr. He."

"no problem."

He Qiang saw Pu Min off with a smile.

His reason for not bringing Pu Min was simple: he wanted to bring his wife and children along so that his child could make a good impression on Lin Lang.

It's not enough for him to hold onto Lin Lang's one leg; his son needs to hold onto his Uncle Lin's other leg too.

With so many people going, Lin Lang will be too busy to handle everything and won't have time to send his son to curry favor with others.

He had already made plans; he would go there on the afternoon of the 27th of the twelfth lunar month to see if Lin Lang's family needed any help.

She herself is too old to work, but her son is young and strong, a good candidate for work.

Looking back over the past few months, He Qiang noted that Lin Lang had not only achieved astonishing results at Tianjin Capital, but had also excelled in other areas.

He said he wanted to acquire Tianshui Duck Industry without spending much money, and now he has succeeded.

Qin Dong has recently been investigated, and Song Zhiyuan's influence in the county is growing.

Lin Lang accomplished all of this.

As Dayu Media grows larger, its previous location is no longer sufficient. Now, in addition to the teams that are always outside, there are more than a dozen teams receiving training in the county.

They even secured a project that allowed them to lease an entire mountain.

This shows that Lin Lang will not abandon this place.

According to the information he received, Tianshui County is planning a large project, which Song Zhiyuan is personally leading, and the demolition costs involved amount to more than one billion yuan.

This is a small county town. Projects worth hundreds of millions of yuan are rare. Projects worth billions of yuan are definitely not limited to one or two villages. They might start with more than a dozen villages.

He still felt it was related to Lin Lang.

Does Lin Lang have that kind of financial resources?

there must be!
Tianjin Capital has already made so much money for its fund investors, how could it not make money for itself?

He was willing to suffer a loss this time rather than redeem his shares, not only because he firmly believed in Lin Lang, but also because he had analyzed the matter from an objective perspective.

He believed that Lin Lang was so capable that he would definitely invest a large amount of his own funds in Tianjin Hybrid Selection Fund. By now, their own funds had reached a very considerable amount.

They haven't even redeemed their own funds, so why are they in such a hurry?
Got it!
Take it!

After finishing his work at the service center, He Qiang went to a local tobacco and liquor store in Tianshui County.

This tobacco and liquor store is quite large, and it carries a considerable amount of high-end goods.

"Boss Yu, has my order arrived yet? Don't give me counterfeit goods."

"Mr. He, look at what you're saying. How could I dare to lie to a big boss like you? I went to great lengths and checked every single bottle of wine. There's absolutely no chance of anything going wrong. It's just that another batch won't arrive until the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, give me what you received first, I'll come back the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, okay..."

He Qiang carried several cases of wine and headed towards Xinglan No. 1 Courtyard.

He also reserved a house for himself here, mainly to store some things.

Previously, he was not well-prepared and could only obtain some cash on short notice, but now he has started stockpiling alcohol directly.

Lin Lang doesn't drink, but his father does; back in their hometown, social occasions often involve cigarettes and alcohol.

There are already dozens of boxes stored in this house. In a couple of days, we'll take a truck and haul them over.

He didn't need to consider what Lin Lang needed at all, because there were too many people willing to consider Lin Lang's needs, but it was already good enough that there were people willing to consider Lin Lang's parents.

Of course, there's also ice crystals.

Although Bingning and Lin Lang's family only have a nominal goddaughter relationship, this is the most easily overlooked point.

As for what Bingning likes, that goes without saying.

She's short of money!
Just send some readily convertible hard currency; nothing is better than gold.

I heard that Brother Lin Lang suddenly went to Shanghai because his neighbor was sick?

There must be a pretty girl in this neighbor's house, right? If there weren't, it wouldn't be like this, since they've only been back for a few days.

We need to find out more about the girl, how old she is, what she looks like, what her current situation is, and whether she needs help...

If she's pretty, then she's definitely got it, so I'll have to prepare an extra one...
