Upon learning of Ma Dongxiang’s identity, everyone looked somewhat uncomfortable, but most were excited.
It seemed they hadn’t expected such an important person to come in person.
Ma Dongxiang, with his hands behind his back, spoke with feigned earnestness,
“This time, my main purpose in coming here is to check on your work. Additionally, our group has spent 100 billion to purchase a plot of land in Zhong Hai, planning to make it the headquarters for the Asia-Pacific region. You will soon have a new office location, and we will also provide you with housing and cars. As long as everyone works hard, I won’t let you down.”
Hearing this, everyone became even more excited, their eyes seemingly shooting sparks, and then they began to applaud, continuing until their hands were red and still not stopping.
Li Dongxiang waved his hand with a solemn expression, and the clapping slowly subsided.
He turned his gaze to Lin Yi.
“Young man, I heard you recruited ten people in less than an hour?”
“Yes,” Lin Yi replied with a beaming smile.
“Very good. I think you have great potential. Starting today, you are the general agent for Zhonghai Songjiang District. All new members who join later will be under you.”Upon hearing this, the eyes of others present lit up with fervor, for this was what they had been hoping for.
After briefly chatting with Lin Yi, Ma Dongxiang looked at the others, speaking with a hint of seriousness,
“I know you’re not convinced inside. We all started together, so why can he become the regional general agent while you’re lower than him by a level? It’s unavoidable, because his abilities are above yours, so he deserves this. But I can assure you, if you work hard, you can be like him one day.”
Encouraged by Ma Dongxiang, a look of longing once again appeared in everyone’s eyes.
Then, Li Jianfei whispered something to him, and Ma Dongxiang nodded and said to Lin Yi,
“Now that you’re a general agent for the group, come with me to the site tomorrow and share your success story with everyone.”
Lin Yi was a bit stunned. He hadn’t done anything, so where did this success story come from?
But he didn’t want to embarrass the other party and promptly agreed.
After showing off for a while, Ma Dongxiang left.
But Li Jianfei stayed behind, watching Lin Yi and the others.
“Now it’s break time. I’ll take you to your accommodations, but don’t idle during the break. Think about who you can recruit tomorrow so you can get promoted and earn more money sooner.”
“Understood, Director Li.”
Soon, Li Jianfei led everyone to their room on the second floor. There were eight beds, all bunk beds, and he said,
“You’ll stay here tonight, and we’ll all get up at seven tomorrow.”
The lodging facilities made everyone frown. They had thought they’d be staying in luxurious private rooms tonight, but it turned out to be simple bunk beds.
“Are we really going to stay in a place like this?” someone questioned.
Li Jianfei nodded, “There’s another room inside. Men and women will stay separately. Bear with it for now. After our building is completed, we’ll move to a new place.”
Hearing this, no one said anything more. After all, they weren’t here for enjoyment; earning money was more important than anything.
“Can I get a different room?” asked Lin Yi,
“I am the general agent now, after all. Shouldn’t my treatment be a little different?”
Li Jianfei thought for a moment, then smiled and said,
“You’re right. You should have a room to yourself.”
He couldn’t resist showing off even at this moment, addressing the others,
“When you reach the level of a general agent, you’ll also receive such treatment. I hope everyone works hard.”
Amid others’ envious gazes, Li Jianfei took Lin Yi to a room next door.
Although it was also a bed in a bunk setup, there was no one else but him.
“You’ll stay here tonight. Perform well tomorrow, and share your experiences with everyone.”
“Got it.”
After Lin Yi entered the room, Li Jianfei closed the door and turned to his men, saying,
“Keep a close watch tonight. If you find anything amiss, take them away directly.”
“Understood, Brother Fei.”
Having arranged everything, Li Jianfei left and then found Ma Xiangdong.
At that moment, Ma Xiangdong was drinking in his room, a table laid out with various snacks, looking relaxed and content.
“Boss, everything is arranged.”
Ma Dongxiang nodded, “I’ve checked the accounts just now. We’ve made a good profit, over two million so far. We’ll make one more score tomorrow, then pull out and no longer need to hide from them.”
“Understood, boss,” Li Jianfei said,
“But I think that Lin Yi should be given special attention. He has good connections, and we might be able to make a hefty sum from him.”
“That’s what I was thinking. Don’t let any of these people slip away easily. If soft tactics don’t work, then we’ll use hard ones. I refuse to believe we can’t handle them.”
“Understood, boss.”
…
The next morning, everyone got up early.
After breakfast, only Lin Yi and Li Jianfei and others set off.
Because they planned to make a final big score, Ma Dongxiang also went along, ready to pull off a big hit.
Upon arrival at the designated location, they meticulously set up counterfeit and inferior cosmetics on the table, making others think they were the company’s products, and then waited for people coming to attend the speech.
Around ten o’clock, a dozen or so people had arrived one after another, and Li Jianfei brought them to Lin Yi, whispering,
“Are the people you invited not here yet?”
“Not yet, but they should be arriving soon, don’t worry.” Lin Yi said with a smile,
“They are my good friends. Since they promised to join, they will definitely come.”
Ma Dongxiang and Li Jianfei exchanged glances, feeling that Lin Yi was too calm with their years of experience in swindling.
He should be anxious at this time because if people don’t come, it will affect him as well.
“Lin Yi, although we’re in this together, I have to say this upfront: if something goes wrong, you’ll be responsible,” Li Dongxiang said.
Lin Yi looked at him with interest.
“I’d like to know, what kind of responsibility will I have?” he asked calmly.
Ma Dongxiang’s expression turned colder, “I can’t say for now, but you’ll know when the time comes.”
“Don’t talk like that, it’s making me scared. Should I make a phone call to check in?”
Ma Dongxiang nodded, then signaled Li Jianfei to hand his phone to Lin Yi.
Taking the phone, Lin Yi dialed Liang Ruoxu’s number.
“Where are you? Have you arrived?”
“I’ll be there soon, don’t be anxious,” Liang Ruoxu said indifferently.
