Who goes to work if they're a decent person?

Chapter 32 Mission Completed

Li Youming stood at the entrance of Dingsheng Asset Management and took five deep breaths.

He held the authorization letter Su Ming had given him in his hand, but he still felt a little nervous.

"It's okay, it's just signing a contract..." she whispered to herself, trying to reassure herself.

The door opened.

Liu Wei came out and was stunned when he saw Li Youming.

"You are... the Mr. Li that Mr. Su mentioned, right?"

"Yes...it's me." Li Youming nodded quickly.

"I...I am Li Youming, the legal representative of Tianming Media."

"Please come in, please come in." Liu Wei stepped aside, a professional smile on his face.

"Mr. Su already told me that you need to sign a new rental contract. Let's talk inside."

Li Youming went inside.

In the conference room, Liu Wei pushed the contract over.

"Mr. Li, look, the price we gave to Mr. Su for the entire eighth floor was 80% of the market price."

"Now your company is leasing the property, and you're the legal representative. The price will remain the same, is that alright?"

Li Youming picked up the contract, staring at the dense text, her mind blank.

"President Li?" Liu Wei asked tentatively.

"Huh? Oh, I'm looking at it..." Li Youming quickly lowered her head, pretending to turn the page, but she didn't actually read a single word.

She remembered that this was the first task Su Ming had given her, and she had to complete it well no matter what, in order to save the company money.

So she gritted her teeth and made her expression more serious.

"Mr. Liu, can the price... be lowered a little?"

Liu Wei was stunned: "Lower? Mr. Li, this is already 20% of the market price, that's a great deal..."

"I know it's a great deal," Li Youming interrupted him, her voice suddenly rising, startling even herself.

"But our company is just starting out and we're short on funds... and Mr. Su said he has a good relationship with you and can offer you a lower price..."

She spoke it all in one breath, feeling a great sense of relief.

Liu Wei looked at the girl in front of him, whose face was flushed red and whose body was trembling slightly, and suddenly laughed.

"Mr. Li, did Ms. Su tell you to negotiate the price with me?"

Li Youming was taken aback, then shook her head.

"Since Mr. Su didn't ask you to bargain with me, I suggest you don't need to."

After listening to Liu Wei's words, Li Youming thought about it carefully and realized that it made sense.

Su Ming's only request to him was that he sign the contract as soon as possible; she did not ask him to negotiate the price.

"Okay then, let's sign the contract."

The two then signed and stamped the document, and the whole process took less than 10 minutes.

Li Youming was still a little dazed when she left Dingsheng Asset Management.

However, he still let out a long breath and felt much more relaxed.

The next step is to recruit people.

At the same time, Starlight Shines Company.

Su Ming was sitting at his workstation, staring blankly at the computer screen.

He wondered if that investment genius's skill could really guarantee a win every time he gambled, so should he take a trip to Macau?

Or, could you just buy a lottery ticket?

The system is probably not that simple.

【Ding! 】

A system notification suddenly sounded in my mind.

Su Ming's spirits lifted.

He knew it; it had come, it had finally come.

[The occupancy rate of the asset "Hongyun Building" has exceeded 50%.]

Current occupancy rate: 60.4%.

[Task to increase occupancy rate to over 60% has been completed.]

[Reward: 1 Free Attribute Point]

Su Ming looked at the attribute panel that appeared in front of him and stroked his chin.

Which attributes should I add?

The strength has already been enhanced, but I'm not going to lift weights myself.

As for the rest, I seem to be excellent at everything.

After thinking for a long time, he decided that it still came down to his physical condition.

So he decisively added that free attribute point to his constitution.

[Physical Fitness: 7]

Su Ming then saw that the 6 points of physique on the character attribute panel had changed to 7.

Apart from the attribute panel, Su Ming did not notice any significant changes.

"I'll have to try it out another day. What's the point of improving this physique?"

Then the system notification sounded again.

【Ding! 】

[Host has completed the first phase of the task; system upgrade conditions have been triggered.]

[Upgrade Task: Purchase Property]

[Task Requirements: Purchase five properties on the chessboard (any type, size, or price)]

[Task Reward: System upgraded to level 2, unlocking a new feature panel]

Current progress: 2/5

Five properties?

Su Ming raised an eyebrow.

In other words, I would need to roll the property at least three more times to buy it, and I might not even have enough gold coins.

The primary goal now is to complete the tasks and accumulate gold coins.

Just as Su Ming was pondering, Chen Hao suddenly rushed in.

He sat down next to Su Ming and patted Su Ming on the shoulder.

"Ming-ge! Tell me honestly, what exactly is your relationship with Director Li of Tianmi Garment Factory?"

Su Ming was taken aback: "What's wrong? What's the connection?"

"You're not Factory Director Li's illegitimate son, are you? Or the factory owner's illegitimate son?" Chen Hao asked mysteriously.

"Don't talk nonsense!" Su Ming glared at him.

Chen Hao smiled and continued, "Brother, do you know what Factory Director Li said?"

"Besides praising my excellence, what else can you say?"

Chen Hao: "..."

Chen Hao: "Bro, let's get serious!"

"The factory originally had orders on hand and was working on other people's goods. When they heard that I was introduced by you, they immediately put down their own orders and wanted to rush our goods first."

Moreover, they said that out of respect for you, they had to offer us the biggest discount possible.

"You didn't see the scene when I went to the factory with General Manager Zhang and General Manager Lin yesterday."

Chen Hao began to tell the story vividly:

"As soon as we arrived at the factory gate, Director Li and his men were already waiting there."

That smile was so warm! Even though we're considered a big client, I hadn't even mentioned the order size yet, and they were already this enthusiastic.

"When I got into the workshop, wow, all the machines were running."

Factory Manager Li pointed directly at the production line and said, "Mr. Zhang, don't worry. We will absolutely prioritize the orders introduced by Mr. Su. We'll postpone all other orders and focus on yours first."

I almost let it slip, but luckily I quickly came up with a plan and said that my friend's surname was also Su. That prevented Mr. Zhang from suspecting you.

Su Ming immediately felt a headache coming on. Wasn't this just like trying to hide something obvious?

"Then let's talk about the price!" Chen Hao became even more energetic: "President Lin was all prepared to haggle, but Factory Manager Li just quoted a number."

They said it was almost 20% lower than the market price, and added, "Mr. Su's friends are my friends. This price is cost price; we're not making a single penny."

"Mr. Zhang and Mr. Lin were incredibly happy at the time. If they knew it was actually because of you..."

Chen Hao continued speaking, but Su Ming was no longer calm.

What the hell is the cost price? Does that mean I won't make any money? Or even lose money?

Who the hell gave you such a big discount?

Damn it, another day of working for nothing! I'm such a philanthropist.

The next moment, Su Ming's phone rang.

Li Youming sent me a WeChat message.

Li Youming: Boss! Someone's here for an interview, come quick!
