After finishing his meal, Lin Chen went to the startup center.
"Hello, boss," Xia Xue said, standing up.
An Rou glanced at Lin Chen: "You don't need to talk to that kind of person with that dog boss."
"Senior, can't you give me some face?"
"Give you face? You should have some decency first. Who turned off my air conditioner in the middle of the night last night?"
"Ahem, would you believe me if I said I got up to use the bathroom in the middle of the night and went into the wrong room?"
Xia Xue was deeply shocked by their conversation. She never expected An Rou to be like this. No wonder she had been slacking off all morning and was still so confident when she saw the boss.
Lin Chen assigned the two website design tasks, then started coding. He saved the file just before class started, then stood up to leave.
"By the way, senior, Xia Xue, wait for me at the school gate tonight, I'll take you out for a free meal."
An Rou: "(＾－＾)V Yay~"
After Lin Chen left, Xia Xue whispered to An Rou, "Sister An Rou, what does 'free meal' mean? Is there some kind of unspoken rule involved?"
"What unspoken rules? You're overthinking it. Our boss doesn't have the guts to do that. A free meal is just a free meal; you just need to eat."
"That's amazing! When I was interning, I heard that some company leaders like to force women to drink during team building activities and then take advantage of them. I thought our boss..." But then Xia Xue thought, "Such a young and handsome junior, with a net worth of 500 million, isn't that a bad thing."
An Rou chuckled: "Forced drinking? That's impossible. Our boss doesn't allow you to drink."
At five o'clock sharp, An Rou led Xia Xue toward the school gate, ready to leave work on time.
"Boss, we're here."
When Zhao Yu and his two companions saw that the little white rabbit wasn't wearing a JK uniform today, but rather an office lady outfit, they cursed Lin Chen in their hearts as a beast. Moreover, besides the little girl, there was another innocent-looking senior girl today, who looked like the kind of well-behaved girl. The three of them were so jealous that their eyes were spitting fire.
"Let me introduce you to each other. An Rou and Xia Xue are your seniors."
"Zhao Yu, Zhang Dacheng, and Chen Tianfeng are my three roommates. Jiang Nana is Zhao Yu's girlfriend."
"Alright, everyone's here, let's go, beer and barbecue."
Arriving at their usual barbecue restaurant near the school gate, Lin Chen ordered a case of beer and three bottles of cola. He first handed the cola to An Rou and Xia Xue, saying, "You two drink cola, don't drink alcohol, especially you. An Rou, don't steal my alcohol." He then handed the last bottle to Zhao Yu, asking him to give it to Jiang Nana.
"Who stole your wine? I just accidentally grabbed the wrong glass, hmph."
"If you accidentally grab the wrong cup ten times during a meal, do you think I'm stupid?"
"yes."
"An Rou, believe it or not, I'll dock your pay."
"If you dare to deduct my salary, I'll go to your room in the middle of the night every day to turn off the air conditioner."
Zhao Yu couldn't take it anymore: "Stop, stop, stop! Lin Gou, do you want us to eat our fill of dog food and eat less barbecue? Also, are you two living together?"
An Rou waved her hands repeatedly: "No, no, don't misunderstand. I was just practicing driving during the day and working overtime at night recently, so I was temporarily staying at Lin Chen's place."
"Lin Chen is still renting a place outside?"
"No, he just happened to be passing by the mall and bought a set on a whim."
Hiss~ Zhao Yu and the other four gasped. Listen to this, listen to this, is this even human language? He just casually bought a house, and that's all? But then they thought about how this scoundrel had just made 500 million, oh well, never mind.
"Boss, three more kidneys! I'm going to eat this rich bastard out of house and home!" Zhao Yu said through gritted teeth.
The seven of them chatted while eating barbecue. An Rou tried to sneak a sip of Lin Chen's beer several times, but Lin Chen caught her each time. In the end, Lin Chen drank directly from the bottle without using a glass, which made An Rou wrinkle her little nose unhappily.
Lin Chen sneered, "If you drink too much later, I'll leave you here and sell you to the boss as a dishwasher."
"Tch, Xiaoxue will take me back."
"Anrou, I can't carry you."
"Hahahaha! Xia Xue, you're awesome! Here, have a lamb skewer as a reward."
By the weekend, Lin Chen had finally finished typing out the source code for Huasuan.com. All that was left was to launch the website and package and debug it. The next problem to solve was the server issue: whether to rent a server from the telecom company or buy one himself.
After thinking for a while, Lin Chen decided to ask Ele.me.
Lin Chen arrived at Ele.me's office, handed Liu Xiaoxiao a cup of milk tea, and asked curiously when he saw her there, "Xiaoxiao, isn't it the weekend? Why are you still at work?"
Liu Xiaoxiao took the milk tea and sighed, "Sigh, we've been fighting hard with Xiao Yezi lately, and Boss Zhang has made us all work overtime until we finish this battle, then we can take time off."
"By the way, where is your General Manager Zhang?"
"He's out doing business, but he'll probably be back soon. He just asked me to order takeout for him."
"Hehe, if you Ele.me employees order takeout yourselves, can you send chicken drumsticks as a gift?"
"No, it's just that the delivery drivers are all people I know, so sometimes they give us priority in their deliveries."
As they were talking, Zhang Xuhao walked in from outside.
"President Lin, what brings you here?"
"Mr. Zhang, what are you saying? I'm practically an employee of Ele.me, so isn't it reasonable for me to be here?"
"Yes, yes, you're right. I just had some good news for you. Xiaoyezi Dangjia was almost at its limit. I took your advice and redeveloped the ordering system, which received unanimous praise from users and merchants. We also launched the same subsidy policy as Xiaoyezi Dangjia, and now our market share has surpassed theirs."
"Congratulations! By the way, Mr. Zhang, I'm here to ask you something."
"Oh? What is it?"
"Do you, Ele.me, own your servers or rent them from China Telecom?"
"Mr. Lin, you're joking. Do I look like someone who can afford to buy a server? I don't have 500 million."
"Ahem, it's like this, I'm planning to create an online price comparison website, and then secretly boost Ele.me's ranking in the food delivery section."
"Mr. Lin, I'll contact a telecom manager I know right away and guarantee you an insider discount price. We're all on the same side, right?"
Looking at the ugly faces of the two capitalists in front of her, Liu Xiaoxiao chose to take a sip of the milk tea that Lin Chen had just bought for her to calm her nerves.
Zhang Xuhao immediately called the telecom company and finally agreed to rent a server to Lin Chen at an internal price of 20,000 yuan per year. After Lin Chen got the telecom manager's contact information, he left.
As for the domain name, Lin Chen registered it on Wanwang immediately after redeeming Huasuan.com in the system's marketplace.
