Chapter 182: Chapter 154: See You Again, Feng Sen_1
Upon leaving the conference room of Sheng Tang Apparel, Tang Qing had the system transfer 30 million RMB to the company’s accounts. To him, this sum was equivalent to two days of arbitrage profits and spending it barely registered at all.
After finishing his arbitrage early this morning, his account balance had broken through to 700 million RMB. After the transfer, it returned to around 670 million. However, Tang Qing felt an undeniable bit of shame as he thought about how his wealth would surge again in a few days - he was really rich.
But... Had he not wondered how the system could just ’give’ him so much money all of a sudden?
After leaving, Tang Qing didn’t go home but instead headed to Sky Eye Consulting, not to deliver money, but rather to meet everyone as it was after the New Year. Sun Chao didn’t go up either because he met a comrade who had just become a security guard in the parking lot of the building and they were chatting enthusiastically.
On arriving at the building, upon seeing the luxurious and dazzling office tower before him, Tang Qing felt an instant urge to buy it. But this thought was quickly tossed aside. Shaking his head, Tang Qing laughed and said, "All this is because I’ve too much money."
This time, because he had missed the rush hour, Tang Qing wasn’t squeezed into the elevator. Once was enough. Twice and he’d punch someone. Regardless, the elevator wasn’t empty. There were late-comers, office visitors, people coming and going for various reasons, but compared to last time, he was treated far better this time around.
After the elevator’s stop-and-go journey up to the floor where Sky Eye Consulting were located, Tang Qing made a decision: if he ever built a company building in the future, he would make a private elevator for himself. Not because he wanted special privileges from his employees, but... having to stop at every floor really was a waste of time. 𝓃𝓸𝓋𝓹𝓾𝓫.𝒸ℴ𝓶
Seeing the same receptionist, Tang Qing greeted her and headed straight for Dou Jiao’s office.
Throughout the journey, there were countless greetings of "Good morning, Boss Tang", to which Tang Qing reciprocated with a nod and a smile.
Respect is mutual.
Seeing Tang Qing’s absence of any arrogance typically associated with youthful success and his humility, the bright talents of Sky Eye Consulting were relieved. They didn’t have to worry about their company being a plaything for some Rich Second Generation. Even if the wages were good, if that was the case, they would leave. They were all outstanding graduates or experienced professionals handpicked by Dou Jiao. Although their wages weren’t low, what they wanted was a future, not just a paycheck.
Although Tang Qing was much younger than them, no one in the company dared to belittle him. The reason was that at the last gathering, Tang Qing had casually downed a bottle of Baijiu as if it were nothing. From that point on, they never viewed Tang Qing as a kid again.
Damn, that was Baijiu, not beer, and he didn’t drink it shot by shot, but one whole bottle straight, and it didn’t even affect him. Now, that’s a bottle. How many people could do that?
At that time, they had also drank a little and became tipsy, so they didn’t think much of it. However, in retrospect, they got the chills. If Tang Qing, at such a young age, were to be taken to the hospital due to that bottle of Baijiu, they would be in big trouble. Accidents could result in fatalities. Fortunately, nothing happened, or else, even if they weren’t to be held responsible, the guilt would follow them forever.
Seeing the door to Dou Jiao’s office ajar, Tang Qing didn’t knock and walked right in.
Good Lord, it was a mess. Dou Jiao’s office was piled up with boxes of all sizes, some unboxed, others still sealed, all obviously desktop computers. Apart from these, there were two other big items - servers.
After moving an unopened computer box that was blocking the door, Tang Qing asked, "Sister Jiaojiao, what’s going on? Why is everything piled up in your office?"
After closing the door, he sat in front of Dou Jiao who was deeply and seriously engrossed in whatever she was writing.
Upon hearing Tang Qing’s voice, Dou Jiao looked up. The moment she saw it was Tang Qing, her serious expression turned into one of delight, "Boss, you’re here! Some computers and servers arrived recently. The hardware is here but the tech guys responsible for setting them up haven’t arrived yet, so for now, they’re all piled up here. By the way, what brings you here?"
Tang Qing was speechless at how blunt Dou Jiao was. It made him seem like an unwelcome guest.
"... I came especially to see you, okay?" Tang Qing replied in annoyance.
Seeing Tang Qing’s tone, Dou Jiao wasn’t afraid at all. Tang Qing was straightforward and gentle, not focusing on minor issues. Through their close interactions over such a long period, she fully understood that he wouldn’t get angry over such matters, so she chuckled and said cheerily, "Hee hee, I don’t believe that. You wouldn’t willingly come to see your sister without any business. It’s such a shame that I work tirelessly for you and even had to call you first during Chinese New Year. Today, you even came empty-handed, not bringing anything. Sob sob, you are such a heartless boss."
Along with her words, Dou Jiao pretended to sob a few times.
Alright then, Tang Qing facepalmed seeing Dou Jiao turn the tables on him. Indeed, no men could win against women when it comes to bickering. Looking the image of innocence and wronged, Tang Qing said, "Sister Jiaojiao, I was wrong. Next time, I’ll bring something for you, okay?".
Even though he knew that Dou Jiao was just pretending, how does one perform in the drama of life? – By playing along. Tang Qing didn’t want to prolong this banter; who knows what impossible requests Dou Jiao might spring up?.
