Chapter 500: Chapter 385: The King and the Choice of the Business Empire Chapter 500 -385: The King and the Choice of the Business Empire 鈥淟i Fei, I鈥檓 speaking from the heart here, man,鈥 you should prioritize your career.
With just a nod from you, there鈥檚 a tourism project opening up in Saudi Arabia, with a total investment of hundreds of billions.
There鈥檚 still no one in charge of this project, and if you鈥檙e willing, you could be the chief responsible person.
Don鈥檛 worry about a thing, with Prince Alwaleed backing you, as long as you don鈥檛 mess up, nothing can go wrong!鈥
Unlike the opulent and spacious dining room of an emperor鈥檚 palace, Li Fei鈥檚 dining room was very small, so they had put the dining table in the living room.
People crowded around it, sitting on sofas and stools, which made this tiny living room lively!
Li Fei hadn鈥檛 bothered with any fancy wine, simply opening two bottles of baijiu.
After drinking two glasses, Chu Mo鈥檚 face had already begun to flush red.
...
The large pieces of braised pork and potato ribs in front of him were naturally not as refined as those made by a personal chef, but they had a certain charm of domestic life, and at least suited Chu Mo鈥檚 taste perfectly.
Chu Mo glanced at Liu Hui, who sat across from him, careful but thrumming with excitement.
This was Chu Mo鈥檚 second time seeing Li Fei鈥檚 partner; the first had been at a wedding two months ago.
Chu Mo had thought then that Li Fei鈥檚 partner was someone you could live life with, and now it was clear she indeed was, with the entire home tidy and well-organized.
Sitting next to Chu Mo, Li Fei tried to suppress the emotions in his heart.
When Chu Mo had told him about bringing a few princes and princesses to his home as guests, Li Fei thought he was joking.
潡堭潣凁潟橉潣?co
But now, with several princes and princesses actually seated across from him, Li Fei felt like he was floating on air!
Who could have imagined that his modest home of less than a hundred square meters would one day host so many VIPs?
Lifting his glass, Li Fei clinked it with Chu Mo鈥檚 and then spoke with a smack of his lips:
鈥淏rother, it鈥檚 not that I don鈥檛 want to go, but when you鈥檙e dealing with hundreds of billions, I just don鈥檛 have the confidence.
I know nothing, don鈥檛 even speak the language; if I went I鈥檇 be utterly lost.
If I screwed things up for you, even if you didn鈥檛 blame me, I wouldn鈥檛 be able to get over it myself!鈥
Chu Mo didn鈥檛 usually drink baijiu; he had only recently started to appreciate a little bit of red wine.
If it had been anyone other than his close friend Li Fei offering him a drink, he wouldn鈥檛 have accepted it!
But with his close friend, Chu Mo didn鈥檛 refuse at all, not caring if he might throw up later, just tilting the cup back and drinking it down in one go, then picking up some braised pork with his chopsticks and savoring the greasiness and rich flavor in his mouth.
Seeing his friend refuse didn鈥檛 surprise Chu Mo.
He pondered a moment before continuing to persuade:
鈥淚f you鈥檙e not sure about taking on a new project, then go to Dubai.
I have investments there too, and moreover, Dubai鈥檚 Prince Ben Hesed is sitting right there.
The person in charge there currently is Liang Bing, and all the preliminary work is already done.
If you take over Liang Bing鈥檚 work, I can transfer him to Saudi Arabia.
You just need to follow the existing plans, and there won鈥檛 be any problems.
If even that鈥檚 not okay, then go to Bafang International and do nothing.
I鈥檒l give you a nominal position as general manager, with a salary of at least eight digits a month, nine digits if you want.
Just say the word; our brotherhood is worth that much!鈥
As Chu Mo finished speaking, Li Fei beside him hadn鈥檛 yet responded, but Liu Hui, sitting cautiously opposite, had already flushed with excitement.
As a receptionist with a monthly salary of just seven or eight thousand RMB, whose greatest dream was to be promoted to a small team leader with a 1.5 times performance bonus, she was visibly trembling with excitement.
She was now breathing heavily with the thrill.
In Hua Country鈥檚 financial hub, Shanghai, a salary over ten thousand a month was really just the norm.
She was just a small company front desk receptionist, her salary barely enough to keep her from starving.
Although her husband Li Fei was quite capable in his work, he was just an ordinary employee, earning just over ten thousand a month.
Together, they made about twenty thousand a month, but almost half of that went on their mortgage, and with all the other expenses, they were barely breaking even without any major expenses.
Liu Hui鈥檚 greatest dream was for her husband to get promoted to department head so that his salary would reach twenty thousand RMB, which would give them some room to breathe and not have to live so frugally.
But she had never imagined that her husband could one day earn a monthly salary in the tens or even hundreds of millions.
She had quietly done the math several times, confirming that if her husband said yes, he could immediately get a job with a monthly salary of ten million or even a hundred million!
This was not a level that ordinary people could reach through hard work or ambition, it was something only attainable by those at the very top of their field.
And as Liu Hui looked on, full of incredulous hope, her husband Li Fei, after a short pause, shook his head slowly, refusing again.
鈥淎bout that, I still feel the same as before.
We鈥檙e brothers, and if I were to join your company, it would change the nature of our friendship.
So鈥
let鈥檚 just leave it in the drink.
Enough said!鈥
Chu Mo glanced at Liu Hui, who looked anxious but unable to speak, and then at his solemn friend beside him.
He thought to persuade him a bit more but ultimately just clinked glasses with him again, and said nothing more.
