The fat man took out a cigarette from Hua Zi and offered it to Zhao Youde.
Zhao Youde took the cigarette and, upon seeing it was Hua Zi, immediately got out of the car and leaned against the hood. "Click," he lit the cigarette with a lighter, took a satisfying puff, and praised, "Good cigarette, the taste is particularly pleasant, it's just a pity it's a bit too expensive."
The fat man laughed and said, "Uncle De, you make tens of thousands of yuan a month, so smoking cigarettes is no problem for you."
Zhao Youde shook his head: "How can I compare to you? I still have to support my family. I have to take care of my parents and my children need to go to school. Money is needed everywhere."
Suddenly, the rear door of the Audi opened, and a slender girl with wavy hair stepped out. She gazed at the brightly lit, modern university before her, a hint of anticipation flashing in her eyes.
Just then, the fat man walked towards them with a warm smile on his face.
"Hi beautiful, let me introduce myself. My name is Zhang Jiesheng, Chen Ze's childhood friend and good brother. Are you his girlfriend?"
Shen Xiyu said in a low voice, "I'm not his girlfriend, I'm his secretary."
A deafening roar erupted, like a thunderclap exploding in their ears, abruptly interrupting their conversation. A white Lamborghini supercar, like a bolt of lightning, came to a smooth stop next to the Audi in the blink of an eye.
The Lamborghini's doors slowly rose, looking incredibly cool. Moses Chan and his girlfriend stepped out of the car, like two dazzling stars, instantly attracting the attention of everyone around them.
"Fatty, hurry up and give me some good cigarettes to try," Chen Hao said with a big smile as he approached Fatty and reached out to ask for a cigarette. When he saw the Huazi cigarette Fatty offered, his eyes lit up as if he had discovered a rare treasure: "Fatty's doing well, living such a comfortable life, even smoking Huazi."
The fat man chuckled, his smile as bright as a blooming chrysanthemum: "It's alright, but compared to you, I'm practically a poor person living below the poverty line."
Just then, Chen Ze walked over with a backpack slung over his shoulder. His smile was as warm and bright as the spring sun: "What are you talking about? You seem to be having a lot of fun?"
Shen Xiyu came over and took off his backpack, thoughtfully placing it in the car.
"Brother Ze, I just arrived too. I chatted with Fatty for a bit. By the way, where are you taking us for late-night snacks tonight?" Chen Hao asked.
"Let's go to the Shenzhen Seafood Restaurant. Let's hurry up and get in the car."
Everyone got into the cars, and then the two cars quickly left the school gate.
Upon arriving at the Shenzhen Seafood Restaurant, Chen Ze greeted the receptionist and then selected a large private room on the second floor. After the waiter led them to the room, he said:
"Hello, bosses. What would you like to order? There's a menu on the table."
Everyone took their seats and began ordering food.
"Two Boston lobsters, the big ones, three king crabs, four geoduck clams..." Chen Hao kept ordering, as if these dishes were all free.
He read it aloud, and the waiter took notes.
The fat man, who couldn't stand it any longer, said, "Brother Hao, you've ordered so much, are we going to finish it all?"
"Don't worry, we'll pack up any leftovers and take them home," Chen Hao replied nonchalantly.
The others were speechless. Chen Ze rolled his eyes, thinking to himself: Is this idiot planning to eat me out of house and home?
The fat man carefully took out the labor service company certificate he had just obtained that day and gently placed it on the table. Upon seeing this, Chen Hao eagerly picked it up and looked at it. The words "[Guangxing Labor Service Company]" caught his eye. His face filled with surprise, and he stared intently at Chen Ze:
"Brother Ze, do you want us to get involved in this field?"
Chen Ze nodded slightly, his eyes gleaming with confidence: "I've invested a huge sum of ten million yuan to meticulously build a Panda Takeout platform near Shenzhen University. Now I'm planning to outsource part of the company's business. Are you interested?"
A glint of light flashed in Chen Hao's eyes, like a shrewd fox sensing the scent of its prey: "What kind of business? Is it lucrative? How much service fee are you planning to give me?"
"Don't worry, I won't let you two work for nothing. Your job is to recruit delivery riders for my company. The important thing to remember is that you can only sign temporary contracts with the riders, otherwise you'll be in trouble."
"No problem!" Chen Hao patted his chest and assured him, "But Brother Ze, since they are temporary workers, does that mean we don't need to pay social security for them?"
Chen Ze nodded. "That's right. The biggest advantage of temporary work is that it saves money and effort, and you don't have to worry about labor disputes."
"Hehe, I understand!" Chen Hao laughed, knowing there was definitely a lot of money involved.
"But don't go too far. The riders' wages and benefits should still be based on market rates, otherwise no one will be willing to do it. Of course, Panda Delivery is also monitoring you from the back end," Chen Ze reminded.
"I understand, I understand!"
Chen Hao nodded repeatedly, already calculating how to make more profit from it.
"Then it's settled. You'll own 60% of the company, and Fatty will own 40%. We'll discuss the details after dinner." Chen Ze raised his glass, gesturing for everyone to toast.
After a few rounds of drinks, Chen Ze realized that Chen Hao had changed girlfriends again. He had to admire how easily this guy changed women, just like he changed clothes.
After everyone had finished eating, Chen Ze ushered them all out of the private room and told Zhao Youde and the others to wait downstairs. At this point, only Chen Ze, Chen Hao, and Fatty remained in the private room.
"Chen Hao, I'm optimistic about a futures stock and have already bought 40 million yuan worth. Call your dad now and ask him if he dares to play along with me."
Upon hearing that Chen Ze had bought 40 million worth of futures, Chen Hao secretly admired the guy's audacity. His father had already told him about his exploits, and after hearing them, he felt that Chen Ze was like a god.
Chen Hao opened his contacts, found his dad's number, and dialed. The call was answered quickly, and without any small talk, he got straight to the point:
"Hey Dad, Ze said he's bullish on a futures stock and has already bought 40 million worth. He asked me to ask you if you want to follow suit."
The voice on the other end of the phone said, "Son, this is a big deal. Let me think about it for half an hour, and I'll get back to you in half an hour."
After hanging up the phone, He Meiyue said, "Honey, with our funds and assets, we're already billionaires. We could never spend all that money in a lifetime. I don't think it's necessary to take the risk of buying futures or stocks."
Chen Youfu glanced at his wife and said, "What do you know, you woman? Most of my wealth comes from Chen Ze. He only has a net worth of 50 million but dares to buy 40 million worth of goods. I have a net worth of over 100 million, so what's there to be afraid of buying 30 million worth of goods? At worst, I'll just find a way to make it back if I lose money."
Hearing her husband's words, she knew clearly that once her husband made up his mind, not even ten oxen could pull him back. So, she got angry, left the sofa, and went back to her room to sulk.
Seeing his wife leave in anger, Chen Youfu shook his head and ignored her. Instead, he lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and wondered how much to buy following Chen Ze's lead.
He quickly finished his cigarette, and half an hour later, Chen Youfu decided to buy 30 million yuan worth of shares. He then picked up his phone and called Chen Ze.
