I'm the villainous Dragon King? I start with a free 100-pull gacha pull for the female lead!

The two were riding on bicycles.

Liu Ruyan put her arm around Ye Shu's waist and asked curiously, "Why did you go to him instead of solving it yourself?"

"Because I don't have that talent."

Ye Shu spoke frankly about this.

"I know nothing about business, so I won't force myself to do it. I'll let someone who knows it do it. That's called self-awareness."

Liu Ruyan always felt that this was a subtle hint directed at her.

She playfully punched him, a little embarrassed and annoyed, and scolded him:

"Are you indirectly criticizing me? You know you're incapable of managing the company, yet you still insist on doing it?"

"You're quite clever." Ye Shu smiled.

"Then tell me what I should do!" Liu Ruyan's voice was tinged with grievance and resentment.

She's the only one in the Liu family who can shoulder the heavy responsibility.

How many more years does Grandpa have left to live?

"It's very simple, just two words."

Ye Shu held up two fingers. "Delegate authority."

"Heroes are as numerous as fish in a river; there will always be someone stronger and more knowledgeable than you, they just lack an opportunity. All you need to do is hand over your initial resources to the right person, and then..."

"Just lie at home, scroll through your phone, and wait to receive your money."

"That makes sense, but it sounds like the kind of vampire who stays at home doing nothing and has to hand over her salary card when her husband comes home," Liu Ruyan muttered, blushing.

"But what if they sideline me or drain the company's resources if I delegate authority?"

"Then that's your problem."

Ye Shu said calmly, "If you have absolutely no talent, you must give the other person a reason to submit to you. Perhaps it's marriage, perhaps it's finding something to hold against them, perhaps it's making them worship you and respect you like a god, or perhaps it's making them fall in love with you and never be able to leave you."

"......"

Liu Ruyan fell silent.

She looked up at Ye Shu's retreating figure on his bicycle and muttered softly, "I...I won't marry you..."

The sound of the wind dispelled the girl's shyness.

Before long, the bicycle stopped on a street.

"arrive."

Ye Shu led her across the street to an ordinary convenience store, and then towards the store's warehouse.

storehouse?

Looking at the tightly closed door, Liu Ruyan's heart skipped a beat.

In this situation, there might be a hidden world behind it, such as a strange laboratory, a secret base, or even... a den of illegal activities?

However, when she pushed open the door full of anticipation...

Those beautiful fantasies shattered in an instant.

In the sparsely lit warehouse, a chandelier, barely extinguished, was struggling to provide the last bit of light, while a handsome, refined-looking, and shrewd-looking person was carrying boxes onto a bread cart.

This...this is just a laborer, isn't it?

"Calm down, calm down."

Liu Ruyan took a deep breath.

It might not be him, but as she looked around, she didn't see a single normal person.

"Tsk, this kid is kind of handsome."

Just then, Ye Shu, who was standing nearby, sighed, "If he weren't sick, I wouldn't have bothered with him."

Liu Ruyan: "..."

She was about to take a few steps forward to see what tricks this laborer had up his sleeve.

My foot accidentally bumped into an aluminum can.

With a clang.

The young man who was moving boxes suddenly looked up, his gaze fixed precisely on Liu Ruyan.

The two locked eyes.

Liu Ruyan was surprised to see deep fear and dread in the other person's eyes.

Just as she was wondering...

The young man suddenly screamed in terror.

"woman?!"

"No! Don't come any closer!!!"

He yelled and dropped the box, waving his hands wildly in the air. He took off running towards the nearest trash can, leaped up, and with a perfect diving motion, plunged headfirst into the trash can before slamming the lid shut.

Liu Ruyan was completely dumbfounded.

She looked at Ye Shu, pointed to her face, and said, "Am I...am I that scary?"

"This is what I told you, he's sick."

Ye Shu said in a serious tone:

"He has gynophobia. If a woman appears within ten meters of him, he will quickly find a trash can to crawl into and hide himself."

As for why someone like this can stay in the Dragon Group, it's because Sima doesn't treat the other members as human beings at all.

Liu Ruyan was shocked.

This was the first time she had ever heard of such a disease in her life.

"You stay out of the way for a bit, I'll go talk to him."

Ye Shu waved for Liu Ruyan to move aside, then walked to the trash can and knocked on the lid. "Don't hide, the woman is gone."

Hearing the familiar voice, Sima opened the lid, peeked out with one eye, and only after confirming that Liu Ruyan was not in sight did he carefully climb out, adjust his glasses, and ask:

"Captain, you wanted to see me?"

"That's right."

Ye Shu patted his shoulder in a serious manner.

"Sima, I have a very good position for you. Have you heard of Liu's Skincare Company? If not, that's okay, because I haven't heard of it either."

"But now, it needs you."

Upon hearing this,

Sima, who had been timid just moments before, immediately changed his expression.

His gaze suddenly turned shrewd, like that of a ruthless capitalist in a TV drama. He rubbed his hands together and smiled somewhat awkwardly.

"Captain, it's not that I don't want to help you."

"But as you know, I've been with you for so many years, and I've lost all my money and my house has collapsed. Now I'm so poor that all I have left is myself."

He pointed to the bread cart.

"I can still make some money by moving boxes every day. It's not that I don't want to work with you, but I'm really broke. Otherwise, I would never have left the Dragon Group."

He spoke sincerely, appearing earnest as if to say, "It's not that my brothers are unrighteous, it's just that even the landlord's family has no surplus grain."

"Three thousand a month."

Ye Shu said calmly, "Three thousand a month, and you will be the marketing director of Liu's Skincare Company, fully responsible for product promotion and sales strategies."

"Three thousand?"

Sima rubbed his hands together again, looking troubled.

"I still need to eat, pay rent, and those are all expenses, Captain..."

Before he finished speaking, Ye Shu held up two fingers.

"Two thousand a month."

???

Liu Ruyan, who was hiding in the corner, was stunned. Two thousand a month? That's less than the minimum wage!

There's no way they'd agree to that.

However, the next second.

Sima's eyes lit up, and he grabbed Ye Shu's hand, hurriedly saying, "Alright, two thousand it is, Captain, I will do my utmost, even unto death."

After saying that, he suddenly pulled out his wallet, took out twenty crumpled hundred-yuan bills and stuffed them into Ye Shu's hand, and squeezed his hand hard as if afraid that he would change his mind.

"Captain, this is my salary for this month."

"good."

Ye Shu calmly accepted the two thousand yuan. "Get ready to complete the onboarding procedures."

Liu Ruyan, who was standing to the side, was stunned.

So, this two thousand wasn't Ye Shukai's salary, but rather someone else's own money paid for Ye Shukai?

What is this?

Paying to work?

Liu Ruyan felt that her worldview had been shaken.

Can this kind of person really save the company?
