My minimum living allowance is credited to my account every day with 1000 million yuan

Lee Ji-eun, wearing sunglasses, got out of the car with Chen Xiao.

There was another car behind them, with Xie Xiaoxiao and Qin Ning in it.
These are all private cars provided by Junxiao Group. After Chen Xiao's itinerary was confirmed, the driver brought them over first and left them in Qinzhou for use.

Security personnel had already helped Chen Xiao and his group check in.
The group did not need to stop at the front desk. Guided by security personnel, they went straight to the private elevator deep inside the hotel, which was reserved for VIPs and required a special access card to open.

The elevator doors, made of shiny brass and dark glass, look quite stylish. However, as the elevator ascends smoothly, the glass curtain wall reveals a somewhat cramped floor space and interior decorations that, while made of decent materials, are clearly outdated in design.

Xie Xiaoxiao couldn't help but mutter under her breath, "My God... this dares to call it a presidential suite? It's so much worse than the Junxiao Hotel..."

Qin Ning also slightly pursed her lips, deeply agreeing.

"Luffy's almost here, right?" Chen Xiao asked casually as they walked.

After finishing his phone call with Xiangjun on the plane, he asked Zhang Ziqian to contact Luffy and ask where he was.
Coincidentally, Luffy was in Xia Province, which is more than 100 kilometers away from Qinzhou. Knowing that President Chen had come to Qinzhou, he immediately turned his car around and headed for Qinzhou.

Judging by the time, it should be almost time!

Sure enough, as soon as he asked, Zhang Ziqian received a message from Luffy that he had already entered Qinzhou City!
Nodding slightly, "Alright, let's meet in the hotel lobby in half an hour, and then we'll head straight to Junxiao City!"

Xie Xiaoxiao stepped forward: "President Chen, I won't accompany you to Junxiao City later. I'd like to go for a walk with Qin Ning. Her family is from Qinzhou, so she can be my guide!"

Chen Xiao didn't mind and just nodded, "Then be careful. Have Ziqian arrange for two people to accompany you."

These two beautiful models are quite likely to attract attention. To prevent unnecessary trouble, it's necessary to arrange for two bodyguards.

Xie Xiaoxiao did not refuse Chen Xiao's kindness. Moreover, Chen Xiao had arranged a nanny car for them, which would make it more convenient to go out on errands.

She and Qin Ning did not share a suite with Chen Xiao.

As soon as they entered the room, he hurriedly said to Qin Ning, "After they leave, let's quickly find a luxury goods recycler and sell this Vacheron Constantin. Otherwise, I really can't afford his game recharge!"

"Now he's going to compete with Zhao Lei, the son of the richest man in Qingzhou, to see who can top up their account more. Where else can I sell all this stuff and help him top up 1000 million?"

Qin Ning also felt quite sorry for Xie Xiaoxiao; she was probably the most tragic game spokesperson in history!

While others make money endorsing games, she inexplicably lost millions.

Sigh, what about me? I spent 250 million and ended up looking like a complete idiot! Didn't someone say in ancient times that "men are the source of trouble"?

"Xiaoxiao, you should just be honest with him. Even though you're the spokesperson, all the game currency you have is real money you recharged yourself; the official channels don't offer any discounts!"

Xie Xiaoxiao sighed heavily, then slumped down on the sofa: "Didn't you hear what Ziqian said? He promised he wouldn't spend a single penny on this game. If I tell him the truth, he'll have no source of in-game currency anymore. How painful will that be for him? And all those online trolls, they're all attacking him, how wronged he'll feel!"

Qin Ning stared blankly at Xie Xiaoxiao. Was he feeling wronged?
Does he feel as wronged as I do? He made me lose 2.5 million RMB just because of his comment, "You changed your name to 'Roadside Lump' in less than a week."

"Xiaoxiao, you're probably obsessed!! It's not just about him playing games anymore, it's also about a rivalry with Zhao Lei. We may not be poor, but compared to Zhao Lei, we're just insignificant nobodys!"

“Who says otherwise?” Xie Xiaoxiao sighed heavily, as if all her strength had been drained, and sank heavily into the soft sofa, the expensive leather groaning softly.

"Let's take it one step at a time..." she said, clinging to the last shred of hope, her voice filled with self-consolation. "Maybe... Zhao Lei looks intimidating, but once he sees that it requires real money of ten million, he'll chicken out and back out?"

Buzz—Buzz—

A sudden, rapid, and continuous vibration sounded!
The phone that Xie Xiaoxiao had casually tossed on the glass coffee table was beeping wildly!

Xie Xiaoxiao was startled by the noise and trembled slightly. She lazily reached for her phone. The screen lit up, displaying the three words "Zhang Ziqian".

"Huh? Ziqian wants to see me?" she muttered, a little puzzled, her brows furrowing slightly. "Could it be that President Chen wants to summon us over again to keep him company?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Ning leaned closer. She genuinely wanted to be with Chen Xiao; such an opportunity was rare.

Xie Xiaoxiao casually opened the message sent by Zhang Ziqian.

On the screen, there was no text, only an image that loaded first.

"Aaaaaaaahh ...

"Qin Ning!!!"

Xie Xiaoxiao felt a buzzing in her ears, like a swarm of angry bees had entered! She covered her ears, both shocked and in pain, tears welling in her eyes, and yelled angrily, "Are you trying to murder me?! Keep your voice down! I'm going deaf!!"

However, Qin Ning had completely forgotten about apologizing. She was acting like a madwoman, her fingers trembling as she pointed intently at Xie Xiaoxiao's phone screen, her eyes wide with unbelievable ecstasy and shock.

"Car...car...Xiaoxiao! This car!! Mr. Chen...Mr. Chen gave it to you?!!"

Xie Xiaoxiao then suppressed the tinnitus and focused her attention on her phone screen.

On the screen, a sharply styled, aggressive SUV is parked quietly.

As seasoned car models, they have long since memorized the silhouettes of the world's top luxury cars.

Lamborghini! Urus!

Moreover… below the image, Zhang Ziqian subsequently sent text notes, each a priceless tag, clearly indicating:

"Top-of-the-line model (4.0T V8 twin-turbo engine)"

"Special Custom Lava Orange Paint"

"Full carbon fiber sports kit (including spoiler, side skirts, and mirror caps)"

"Bang & Olufsen premium sound system" "Alcantara + genuine leather two-tone interior in custom color (deep sea blue)"

Every line of text represents burning real money! Every optional feature pushes the value of this "Bison" to even greater heights!
Qin Ning finally recovered a little, but her voice was still filled with astonishment and intense jealousy.

"My God... Xiaoxiao! This fully-equipped Urus... I'd conservatively estimate it'd cost at least 500 million yuan after all the way! President Chen... he's too extravagant! He really spent that much on you?!"

She stared at the art-like image, imagining it roaring through the streets, her mouth practically watering. This was a genuine Lamborghini! A top-of-the-line SUV!

Xie Xiaoxiao's reaction was completely different.

Instead of being overjoyed, she rolled her eyes back incredibly hard, almost so hard you could see the back of her head!
"Then... Qin Ning, think about it, when he casually 'gifted' me this car... what was the task he simultaneously assigned me?!"

She deliberately emphasized the words "send" and "assign task".

A mission? A recharge of 1000 million! The envious look in Qin Ning's eyes disappeared.
Luffy has recently been acquiring land all over the country, and he personally oversees many of his major projects.

This is also because Jiexun Sports is expanding too fast now, and many of the regional general managers of its branches are promoted from the operations department and have no experience in channel expansion.

Fortunately, the current development is mainly under Junxiao Commercial Management. Once we gain a foothold in Junxiao Commercial Management, it will be much easier to expand to the surrounding areas.

Luffy happened to be inspecting a branch office in a neighboring province today. When he heard that General Manager Chen had come to Qinzhou, he immediately told his driver to turn around. He had been speeding all the way here, just in case General Manager Chen was getting impatient.

Zhang Ziqian didn't say why he was called over, only that President Chen had summoned him.
He stood in the hotel lobby, his eyes fixed on the direction from the guest rooms area, when he suddenly spotted several short-haired, spirited young women and a few burly men—

Luffy could tell at a glance that this was President Chen's bodyguard.
He hurried forward and, sure enough, saw Chen Xiao, beside him Zhang Ziqian, who always maintained a professional elegance and efficient demeanor. There was also someone wearing sunglasses, obscuring her features, but judging from her figure, she was undoubtedly a great beauty.

"President Chen—President Zhang—", Luffy bowed deeply.

Chen Xiao nodded slightly. Seeing this guy reminded him of Xiang Jun's colleague, and his mood immediately soured. He simply gave a curt "Let's go, to Junxiao City!"

Luffy's heart skipped a beat. What was going on? Why did President Chen seem so dissatisfied with him? Thinking this, sweat immediately beaded on Luffy's forehead. The area on the back of his shirt, previously soaked with sweat, now felt icy cold against his skin! He even felt his fingertips go numb!

What went wrong?!

Was a site selection oversight discovered in a project in a neighboring province?
Or was it the high premium of the prime location they just acquired that displeased Mr. Chen?

Could it be that Jiexun's expansion speed has exceeded Mr. Chen's expectations?

Or... is it because I've done something wrong lately, and someone has badmouthed me?
Upon exiting the hotel lobby, a Rolls-Royce Phantom was already waiting at the door. The driver stood by the back door and bowed to invite Chen Xiao and Li Zhi'en into the car.

Chen Xiao got into the car without saying a word to Luffy.

Luffy didn't dare to breathe, but fortunately Zhang Ziqian smiled and gestured to him, indicating that he was alright.

"Mr. Lu, you should get on the convoy," Zhang Ziqian said, and then got into the passenger seat of the Rolls-Royce Phantom!

On the second floor of Junxiao City, there is the NK flagship store of Jiexun Sports.

It was almost time to get off work, but after receiving Zhao Xiangjun's message, Lu Yan's mood improved significantly, and her smile became more natural when she greeted guests.

Just as she was explaining the features of the running shoes to a customer, she suddenly heard a sales assistant's cheerful voice calling out from the doorway, "Good morning, boss!"

Lu Yan looked in the direction of the sound, and her expression immediately changed!
The visitor was Yan Jun, the operations manager of Jiexun Sports' Qin Province branch. It was this man who demanded Lu Yan leave Jiexun Sports.

Seeing him filled me with both fear and anticipation.

What she feared, of course, was Yan Jun's insistence on her leaving; what she hoped for was that the connections Zhao Xiangjun made would reach Yan Jun and change his mind.

But when Yan Jun saw Lu Yan, the change in his facial expression made Lu Yan realize that something was wrong!

"Xiao Liu, come here for a moment—"

Yan Jun waved to the store manager, who was in charge of managing the store, signaling her to come outside with him to talk.

The store manager glanced at Lu Yan, then walked out nervously, his calves trembling. Agreeing to let Lu Yan stay that afternoon was risky; it showed a lack of execution ability in carrying out tasks assigned by superiors.

This manager, Yan Jun, used to be the regional vice president of a leather goods brand. After being headhunted to Jiexun Sports, he would always recount how he was absolutely dominant in his old company during meetings with employees. He described how obedient his subordinates were and how he got rid of those who didn't.
Recalling his words, Manager Liu became even more uneasy. "Lu Yan, Lu Yan, I'm going all out for your potentially unreliable friend. But I'm afraid that even if I do everything in my power, I can't save you!"

Yan Jun stood by the glass railing outside the store, his face cold as he watched Manager Liu trembling as she walked towards him. When she was about three meters away, Yan Jun spoke: "Give me an explanation. Why is she still in the store? Does my word not carry weight? Do you not respect me as your leader, or are you ignoring the company's requirements?"

The store manager nearly collapsed to his knees; he hadn't even gotten close before being bombarded with accusations. "Boss, please let me explain—"

He waved his hand emphatically: "I won't listen to explanations. Lu Yan must leave today. This is the task I assigned you this morning. I met with General Manager Huang this afternoon, and she agrees. What, you don't even respect General Manager Huang?"

Damn it, Manager Liu thought this bastard was too vicious. He'd just thrown so many accusations at him, and now he was saying he didn't care about General Manager Huang.

The key is that these words could easily be spread, and when General Manager Huang came today, he did indeed ask me to resolve Lu Yan's matter quickly.

Store Manager Liu was about to cry. She wanted to help Lu Yan, but she also had a family to support. She had finally found such a good job, as the manager of a large store, with a monthly income exceeding 15,000 yuan, which was considered a high income in Qinzhou.

If I lost my job because of a single sentence from Lu Yan's unreliable friend, I would probably feel incredibly wronged.

Looking back at the store, the store manager silently apologized. Then he explained to Yan Jun, "Boss, a friend of Lu Yan said she's spoken with the company and they're letting her stay at Jiexun Sports, so..."

Before she could say a word, Yan Jun laughed dismissively: "Are you kidding me? In Qinzhou, I told Boss Huang to leave, and even if the King of Heaven himself came, he couldn't keep her."

As he spoke, the store manager wholeheartedly agreed.

"Go, bring that Lu Yan over here. I want to ask her who's so arrogant." (End of Chapter)
