Chapter 198: Chapter 167 Arranging tasks (Seeking subscriptions!)_1
Tang Qing went back to his room.
Even though he didn’t get any sleep all night and used up a lot of physical energy during his battles, Tang Qing didn’t feel tired. The stimulation from the Origin Qi had delayed his fatigue, and he planned to catch up on some sleep at school. 𝖓𝔬𝔳𝖕𝖚𝖇.𝖈𝔬𝔪
The Origin Qi was similar to adrenaline; it couldn’t truly relieve fatigue or provide cellular energy, but it allowed the body to endure for an extended period without any aftereffects. It’s just that the duration was a bit long.
Seeing that his aunt hadn’t finished cooking breakfast yet, Tang Qing quickly started a new day of arbitrage: exchange, transfer, wait, recover. Four steps, repeated over and over again.
He now felt so poor that he was on the verge of poverty.
This wasn’t an exaggeration or show off, although his income was substantial in the long term. But for this month, his funds would still be tight. If he wanted to have a reserve of half a billion RMB for insurance and to expand the upper limit of his arbitrage, he needed to wait for at least two months.
This was under the assumption of not having any other expenses. If there was an emergency that required large funds, coupled with the upcoming investment from Sheng Tang, Tang Qing was genuinely short on money.
After ten rounds of arbitraging, Tang Qing earned more than 14 million RMB before leaving for school, surpassing 400 million in deposits again. But his highest deposit was twice this amount, so he wasn’t too thrilled.
Tang Qing checked his personal information again.

After breakfast,
On the way to school, Tang Qing bought five steamed dumplings and ate them while walking. He didn’t mind the heat at all.
He took out his mobile phone and dialed Dou Jiao.
"Little Brother Tang, why are you calling so early?" Dou Jiao’s voice came up from the other end, sounding fatigued.
Just by hearing her voice, Tang Qing knew Dou Jiao hadn’t gotten up yet.
"Erm, Sister Jiaojiao, you haven’t gotten up?" Tang Qing said weakly. When dealing with a woman who just woke up, he had to be gentle, gentle, and more gentle. He must not annoy her. Otherwise, the conversation would be really torturous.
"Of course, it’s all because of your acquisition plan. I was so busy last night that I went to bed really late. You’re such a heartless boss. You don’t care about your employees at all. You gave me so many tasks to do. My sleep quality has been terrible these days, and my dark circles are becoming noticeable. Anyway, I don’t care. Once this matter is over, if you don’t give me a big red envelope, I will come over to your house and freeload every day, tell your girlfriend that you cheated on her, flirted with innocent girls, stole candies from kids, and ran red lights when crossing the road." Dou Jiao couldn’t stop complaining once she started to talk about work.
There was no way around it. Tang Qing, the hands-off boss, was too hands-off. Other than giving money, he didn’t bother about anything else. Compared to her nine-to-five life before, her life now was like hell. She unknowingly fell into the pit dug by Tang Qing, and she missed the old days.
However, it’s just nostalgia, she has no plans to quit, and she doesn’t regret her decision. Her life now is much more fulfilling, and she wants to prove her competency. In the past, parents and elders constantly nagged her, offering her all sorts of jobs at government agencies, businesses, and large corporations. This led to her rebellious behavior, refusing to do anything and only wanting to do something easy.
But the job at Sky Eye is different, since she chose it herself, she does not reject it. She is an independent girl, and she also needs to gain acceptance from her family and society.
Secondly, she doesn’t want to disappoint Tang Qing, her younger brother, who trusts her with such important tasks. She cannot mess things up.
"Yes, yes, yes, you’re right, Jiaojiao. I will definitely give you a big red envelope, rewarding our beautiful, kind, and hard-working CEO Dou for her work," Tang Qing rushed to reply with a smile. He knew Dou Jiao was joking, but he couldn’t just play along.
"That’s more like it. It’s not for nothing that I’ve used my connections to facilitate this acquisition," Dou Jiao pouted, seeing Tang Qing’s serious attitude and his sweet words, she didn’t even feel sleepy anymore.
"Thank you so much, Sister Jiaojiao. I’ll treat you to a really good meal after this is all done," Tang Qing gratefully said.
"Um, I want to go to the place from last time," Dou Jiao, her eyes lighting up with excitement as she heard this. She knew about the investment limit for Tang Qing this time, which was a whopping one hundred million RMB. If she didn’t take advantage of this rich little brother, it would surely be a waste of her stomach.
"No problem," Tang Qing readily agreed. A meal was trivial for him, especially when it was free.
Then they came to the main topic of the call - the system’s loan task. Tang Qing reminded Dou Jiao that after doing the work recommended by the system, she should keep in touch with previous clients to see if they have loan needs.
Another thing was the location issue for the communication server. He needed to find a place to store that server because it would be greatly useful to him.
As long as it’s connected to the external network, even though Little Two does not provide intelligence analysis or command work, it can still connect to all sorts of surveillance systems in the real world.
This would significantly boost all future security work.
Moreover, he found that those basic intelligence analysts are all computer experts, but their specialties focus on destruction, intrusion, and defense. They aren’t good at application software. He could start an antivirus software company, but that was just a passing thought. Simply put, it wouldn’t make money.
Since this communication server doesn’t require any external physical connections such as an antenna, power supply, or wired Internet, Tang Qing didn’t plan to put it above ground. Instead, he planned to bury it somewhere.
Yes, bury it.
Compared to any structure above ground or underground, burying it has the least risk.
He asked Little Two as well, the material of the server could withstand soaking, corrosion, and extreme physical impact. Plus, he had seen that the server had no disguise, it looked overwhelmingly powerful. So it’s best to bury it and then build a building on top of it. No one would ever find out.
Naturally, he assigned this task to Dou Jiao, asking her to find a large plot in the suburbs to build a ’pseudo data center’ for Sky Eye. The main purpose would be to store Sky Eye Company’s paper records and core data backups. The place could also serve as the current headquarters of Sky Eye.
This was a sudden decision made by Tang Qing. Instead of starting a new company as a cover or simply digging a hole and burying the server, placing the Sky Eye company above it was like killing two birds with one stone. Firstly, Sky Eye’s future work involves sensitive information and needs to maintain a certain ’distance’ from crowded places. Secondly, having people on-site means he wouldn’t have to worry about the security of the communication server. He could place a few robots as security guards, and everything would be foolproof.
Although she found it strange that Tang Qing was in such a hurry to build Sky Eye’s headquarters, Dou Jiao was busy managing Sky Eye, participating in the acquisition of the jewelry company, interviewing after-stage deployment personnel, and keeping an eye on loan dispensing and recovery. She didn’t have time to figure out why he was so anxious to build this thing. It’s Tang Qing’s money anyway, and she had people to do the work, and she could even get a larger office.
After giving instructions, the two of them ended the call. Dou Jiao couldn’t sleep anymore, and Tang Qing finally let out a sigh of relief. He managed to delegate all the work.
This feeling...tsk tsk.
The feeling of delegate ’work’ is just too refreshing.
It was the first time Tang Qing felt the true power of Sky Eye. If he had to do the work himself, he would’ve gone crazy.
It’s so good to have people.
Tang Qing thought smugly.
