Zhao Yan smacked Zhao Guang on the head, annoyed, “I really don’t know what’s going through your head. Your friend can maintain a partnership with you; your relationship must really be good.” “What do you mean? Are you saying I’m stupid?” Zhao Yan rolled her eyes, “How can you not be stupid? Buying so much, yet you still go to a retail outlet to buy an egg. Just contact the manufacturer directly. Do you know how much cheaper it is there with bulk purchases? Seeing how quickly you’re using it up, it shouldn’t be a problem to buy a bit more in one go.” Being accustomed to calculating every penny in life, how could Zhao Yan watch her younger brother spend so much money on these things? “Well then, you handle these purchases for me from now on, older sister. I’m counting on you.” “What a hassle, you’re going to have to give me a raise.” “Of course, you don’t want shares, so for now, how about an annual salary of five million? I can pay six months’ upfront.” “Are you for real?” Zhao Yan was shocked as Zhao Guang took out his phone to make the payment. “Of course I’m serious, we’re a legitimate company.” Money, or to say, money on Earth, wasn’t much to Zhao Guang anymore, just a string of numbers. What’s truly valuable is the currency from the Otherworld; perhaps he should save up more Gold Coins from there. He wouldn’t want to find himself in need of Gold Coins for payment and have none available. That would indeed be troublesome. Anyway, it seemed Da Manjin on Earth couldn’t really consume that much Gold. As his shipment volume continued to increase, he must spend those Gold Coins in the Otherworld. “Alright, alright, if you really want to help me out, then loan me some money. Your brother-in-law has been wanting to open a materials factory, and we haven’t saved enough for it even after all this time. Now, it should be more convenient.” “Why borrow when I can just give you whatever you need?” “You’re sick again, aren’t you?” Zhao Yan, abandoning her previous coyness, furrowed her brows and caught Zhao Guang’s ear precisely. Zhao Guang sighed; despite his high physical condition, he still couldn’t avoid it. Was this move learned from their mother so effective? He had been the practice target all along, and tears welled up in Zhao Guang’s heart. “Let go, let go; can’t we just talk it out?” “It’s your fault for talking nonsense here. And giving it away directly – you know what kind of man your brother-in-law is.” Right, her brother-in-law cared about face; giving it directly would be embarrassing. No, wait, with such a high income, if her brother-in-law can’t keep up, that might not look good either. Suddenly, Zhao Guang’s eyes lit up, and he said, “How about this, I’ll invest and start a props shop together with my brother-in-law.” “What kind of props shop? Your brother-in-law only knows about construction materials and stuff.” “Props, that’s easy; just like this piece here.” Zhao Guang kicked a steel plate on the ground. “This thing is a prop? What kind of thing is it?” If Zhao Guang hadn’t mentioned it, Zhao Yan really wouldn’t have noticed that there was a steel plate and not something else on the ground. How did they even carry it upstairs? “This is a prop, Armor. See, it’s used like this.” Zhao Yan gave a weird look, “This is called Armor, just two steel plates, front and back? This is what your friend needs?” Zhao Guang naturally replied, “Of course. I have many friends, and everyone needs different things. These items, I will need even more in the future. Isn’t it better if our own people run this business?” “That way, my brother-in-law can continue with the materials business, and I can just place orders directly when I need props. How convenient.” “I’m starting to see, none of you guys are normal.” Zhao Yan firmly believed in her heart that her younger brother must have a secret. Among his friends, there must be one or a few very capable individuals; otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to do such absurd things. It’s likely there are quite a few rich second-generation in the mix. She hoped her brother wouldn’t be deceived or bullied by them. But thinking about the Da Manjin shares Zhao Guang held, there probably wouldn’t be any problems. Even if he failed in his future endeavors, he’d never be left penniless. Thinking about the prop store project, if it truly succeeded and there were plenty of orders, it would be enough to save her husband’s face. Wang Qu was good in many ways, but he cared too much about his image. As long as his face was saved, that man wouldn’t have any problems. “How can you say that? We are very serious about doing great things. Oh, and about the prop store, I know a place. When the time comes, I’ll get in touch. Maybe we can buy it outright, saving us the trouble of starting from scratch.” Zhao Guang was thinking about Liu Mo’s place; judging by Liu Mo’s attitude, he didn’t seem that keen on continuing. With the right price, he doubted Liu Mo would refuse to sell his prop store. “You discuss these things with your brother-in-law; I won’t be involved. By the way, how many people are in our company now, and where is the headquarters?” Zhao Yan had already put these issues to rest. “The company? Right now, it’s just us two. As for a headquarters, what’s that?” “A shell company? With such huge transactions, you manage it like this; aren’t you worried about government departments coming to check? Even if it’s not a problem, they could still make trouble.” This company was too informal and completely unreliable. Even if you said it was fine, would the authorities believe it? “Haha, isn’t it because we haven’t had much time? As for the company headquarters and employee matters, I’ll leave it to my older sister. From now on, you’ll call the shots on everything.” “Aren’t you afraid I’ll sideline you?” Zhao Yan glanced sideways at her unorthodox younger brother. “Not scared. If I get sidelined, so be it. As long as I can get what I need.” That was the truth, but Zhao Yan didn’t believe it. Her brother trusted her so much; she couldn’t let him down. The thought of building a company from nothing ignited a fire in Zhao Yan. If it wasn’t for life’s pressures and the lack of means and opportunity, Zhao Yan would have ventured out long ago. Unlike Zhao Guang’s erratic nature, Zhao Yan had always been strong-willed and ambitious. “Also, go look for a house. Once you find one, just charge it to the company’s account. If renting isn’t suitable, we can directly buy it as well.” “Heh, you really don’t care about the expense. Then let’s rent the place, it’ll save us quite a bit.” Yes, saving her brother a good amount. In business, of course, every small expense must be counted meticulously. In a short time, Zhao Yan was already in the business mindset. Zhao Guang, the boss, was left to the side and quickly became bored. If his older sister weren’t there, he’d have gone to the Otherworld to train.
