Chapter 172: The Lingyun Trio

The atmosphere in the office was silent.

It was as if only their heartbeats could be heard.

Ji Qingyan suddenly understood that the first twenty years of Lin Yis life werent the darkest moments in his life, but the greatest wealth in his life.

This had trained him to become the young man who both loved and feared life, but was still firm and determined enough to kill a dragon with a sword.

It was the breath of life, and that breath was more important than anything else.

He was an ambitious man, after all.

Do you think Im joking? Maybe even a little ridiculous? Lin Yi said self-deprecatingly.

Its a little ridiculous, but I dont think youre joking, He Yuanyuan said.

Why?

Everyone with ambition is worthy of respect.

Lin Yi smiled. If he could recruit her, it would be a blessing for him.

Ive already answered this question, so you have any other questions? Lin Yi asked.

The two looked at each other and Qi Xianzhao smiled.

There were a lot of questions I wanted to ask, but your answer just now made me swallow all the other questions. Thus, Ive decided not to ask them.

Lin Yi looked at the two with interest and teased,

To be honest, I think that answer was a bit ridiculous. It was like a capitalist trying to bake a big cake. Why did you two believe it?

I had my own selfish motives. To serve such a handsome boss, I have to work hard, He Yuanyuan said. Im just a normal person. I like handsome guys.

Ji Qingyan didnt know whether to laugh or cry. She really couldnt do anything about this.

What about you? Lin Yi looked at Qi Xianzhao.

Im still young, and I still want to give it a shot. Qi Xianzhao laughed honestly. Otherwise, when I get old, I wont have the ability to brag in front of my children.

If I fail, then you wont have the ability to brag either.

At least I would have learned how to draw a pie chart. It should be enough to fool the children.

Haha

Lin Yi laughed out loud. Then come work with me from now on. Ill take you guys to draw pie charts.

Ji Qingyan laughed as well. None of them had thought that their meeting would go so good.

Lets not talk about pie charts for now. Lets talk about salary.

Lin Yi looked at the two of them and asked, Before that, what was your annual salary before that?

Its about three million in stock dividends, Qi Xianzhao said.

I dont have as much as Qi bro, about two million, He Yuanyuan said.

Its one thing to paint a picture, but you still have to eat. Raise your salary to five million, and well talk about dividends later when we go public. Lin Yi looked at the two of them. Is that a good number?

Mr. Lin, youre just throwing money at people. I dont want to stay in Meituan anymore, He Yuanyuan said.

Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Lin. Qi Xianzhao said. I feel guilty for you giving me such a high annual salary.

Dont focus on the salary in front of you. Lin Yi smiled. You still have to follow me and conquer the world together.

Got it, Boss Lin.

Ive said what I need to say. Ill take you to the new company to take a look, and Ill leave the future work to you guys. Lin Yi said.

Ill repeat what I said just now. The foundation is a product of my personal will, and its very private. I wont let your talents go to waste. Once youre on the right track, therell be more challenges waiting for you guys.

Got it, Mr. Lin! He Yuanyuan said excitedly. I want to go and take a look.

Youre not afraid of Lin Yi, are you? Ill just give you a small dark room and let you start your own business. Ji Qingyan said with a smile.

Im really afraid, Je Yuanyuan said exaggeratedly. If I didnt have air-conditioning, Id probably die from the heat in the office.

He already gave you an annual salary of five million dollars, why would he need your money for air conditioning? Ji Qingyan said with a smile.

Hehe, lets go then. Let me see the new office.

The group of four went down the stairs. Lin Yi pressed the car key, and Koenigseggs car door opened. He Yuanyuan was drooling at the sight of this.

Boss Lin, is this car yours?

Of course. Do you want to go in and have a seat?

No, Im afraid that senior wont be happy.

What nonsense are you spouting? Ji Qingyan said embarra.s.sedly.

After a while, Ji Qingyan got into Lin Yis car, and Qi Xianzhao got into he Yuanyuans Cayenne. Finally, they stopped at Lingyun building.

Although the name had been changed to Lingyun Building, they hadnt had time to install the plaque yet, and the original t.i.tle of Twin Towers remained.

Director Lin, dont tell me you rented an office in the Twin Towers.He Yuanyuan said in disbelief.

No, I didnt.

Then wheres our office? He Yuanyuan looked around. There are a few high-end office buildings nearby.

You might have misunderstood. Lin Yi smiled. I didnt rent an office here, I bought these two buildings.

Pfftt!

He Yuanyuan almost vomited blood.

You, you bought the Twin Towers? How much did that cost? !

18 billion.

He Yuanyuan,

Qi Xianzhao,

Mr. Lin, I dont want to be the CFO anymore. He Yuanyuan said.

Hmm? What do you want to be?

The company has just been established. You should be lacking a secretary, right? He Yuanyuan said. Although my legs are not as long as seniors legs, I can still wear a black silk skirt. Do you want to think about it?

Uh

Before Lin Yi could say anything, Ji Qingyan interrupted, Dont forget that you graduated from Yan University. Dont embarra.s.s your alma mater.

Yo yo yo, senior is jealous.

Get out of here

Alright, stop bickering. Lin Yi smiled. Lets go up and take a look first.

Yeah yeah, I cant wait anymore..

The interior of the building was decorated in a Scandinavian style. It was in line with the aesthetic trend of the young people, so the four of them quickly adapted to the environment.

However, the floors were empty, and it seemed a little deserted.

Thats the specific situation of the building, Lin Yi said.

Ill leave the rest of the work to the two of you. Just get the foundation up and running as soon as possible. Theres 500 million in the account, so it should be enough to support us for a while. If you run into any problems that you cant solve, just come to me again.

No problem. He Yuanyuan gestured with an OK sign.

But Boss Lin, were already doing the work. What are you doing? You should at least partic.i.p.ate in the decision-making. Were just part-time workers, and we dont have the right to decide everything.

I still have my own matters to handle, and I dont have time to stay here.

He Yuanyuan looked at Lin Yi curiously. Boss Lin, what do you usually do? Dont tell me you cook for your senior full-time and work as a breeder?

I only cook for her occasionally, and I have a formal job.

What formal job?

Errand boy.
