I'm A Baller - Chapter 337
Chapter 337: The Magical New Thing
Young Master Wang lowered his head and looked at all the reserves in the system which was more than 24.5 million. He immediately gave Wang Yunxi a call.
“Do we have enough funds for branch expansion?”
Wang Yunxi was a little confused by the question.
“Didn’t we do the calculation before? We have a total of 35 million of cash flow, and we need at least 25 million before the next month’s settlement to meet the development needs. Ling Ya and the others’ dividends are not going to be moved. You can take away up to 10 million…”
A simple calculation showed that before the day of the auction, Wang Yan would have a total of 34.5 million disposable funds.
Uh, the 10-day breathing wages were around two million, which was 36.5 million.
It was enough for now, but once he won the intermediate Ou-Fei Roulette, there would be a gap in the funds.
There was not much of a gap, it was only a few hundred thousand.
Wang Yan carefully calculated the necessary expenses for the period of time ahead. The round-trip plane tickets, hotel, meals, gas, and so on were all small amounts of money. 100,000 would definitely be enough.
But next Monday, the shopping mall would refresh again. It would be another expenditure of at least a million, and that would be very uncomfortable.
So, could he find some income somewhere?
Or… to scam someone?
With a thought, Young Master Wang asked Xi Zige, “Do you think any of our four food broadcasters are more suitable to go to the mukbang?”
Wang Yunxi blurted out, “Da Gang!”
Then, he explained seriously.
“Actually, I have considered it before. Squeezing four food broadcasters on one platform and monopolizing the whole sub-category, it looks good but it is really a waste.
They basically start broadcasting at noon and dinner time. The time slot is similar, and the content of the live broadcast is also similar. It’s entirely our own people fighting in the arena, and the internal strife is too serious.
It’s better to split up, leaving two to guard the fish platform and two to conquer the city.
Da Gang makes more fun, and his style is especially down-to-earth. The fish platform is actually not the best battlefield, severely limiting his capability.
If we were to choose, the best is Da Gang.”
Wang Yan agreed with most of Xi Zige’s opinions, but he had other plans for the candidate.
“If it’s Panda, then let Ling Ya go.”
Wang Yunxi was surprised. “Ah? Ling Ya is now the unofficial first sister of mukbang. Let her go?!”
“Only the first sister can fetch high price.”
Wang Yan was very calm and clear.
“Panda is the new platform, and its style has yet to be decided. Ling Ya’s ability is the strongest. If she goes there to fight alone, the chance of success is higher than anyone else.
In addition, Miko also has the air of a big sister, but she is slightly suppressed by Ling Ya. Splitting up the two of them is in line with the principle of maximizing benefits.
It just so happened that the big tycoon has countless connections with the panda platform. Putting aside his position and identity, Li Yixu himself is indeed a supporter of Ling Ya. Ling Ya will still be taken care of by the other party when she goes to the panda platform.
Other people might not have such treatment when they change platforms.
Finally, using the first sister to bargain with the panda platform would show our sincerity. Will it look good on him if Wang Siming doesn’t invest in it?”
The reason was too good, and Wang Yunxi was basically convinced.
There was only a little hesitation.
“But, the penalty…”
Wang Yan said decisively, “Pay as much as we can. Don’t ruin the relationship with the fish platform. Anyway, someone will pay for us. I will personally talk to President Chen of the fish platform.”
“Okay, I’ll wait for the outcome then!”
Wang Yunxi didn’t say anything further and officially agreed with Wang Yan’s decision.
The negotiations with Panda still had to be personally handled by Young Master Wang.
Wang Yunxi’s ability and prestige weren’t enough. It was difficult to negotiate for the best deal, and he couldn’t afford to drag it out.
There was no other way, Wang Yan had to do it personally.
This was generally the case in the early stages of the company’s development. The leader had to shoulder the heaviest burden.
Back in the day, President Ma used to ride on a QQ account to chat with users. He was much more bitter than Young Master Wang.
But after the success, he personally told it and treated it as the most interesting experience of his life. Who dared to laugh at him?
Who had the right to laugh?!
When Wangting Yule was developed, Wang Yan would be the most successful group of business geniuses after 1995. He could stand under the Sun for any scrutiny.
Therefore, it was worth it no matter how hard it was now.
Looking at the time, Wang Yan did not contact Li Yixu immediately. He calmed his emotions and continued to eat supper.
Although he was anxious, Wang Yan could afford to wait for two or three days. He could also endure it.
Looking for Li Yixu now could not maximize the effect. When the other party settled the address of the branch in Qiantang, he would throw out the possibility of Ling Ya changing the contract in return. Only then would it appear that Fu Guige paid for his meritorious service and valued loyalty.
The other party had volunteered to help introduce the employees and help find an apartment. Wang Yan owed two favors.
Immediately after, Wangting Yule needed to spread out, take over the panda platform, earn a signing bonus, and also needed Li Yixu to help out in the middle.
In total, it was three favors.
In the end, Young Master Wang flipped his hand and adjusted the time sequence, turning it into a big gift. Li Yixu would be grateful and do his best.
Introduction was the art of doing things.
He was the rich and righteous Fu Gui Wang. Was this new nickname fine?
Hehehe..
Young Master Wang ate happily and took down the Ou Fei Roulette.
The gap was not big, and there was a clear entry. There was no need to wait any longer.
Come on Baby, lucky draw!
Before turning the roulette, Young Master Wang carefully glanced at the only gold prize, and his eyes immediately fixed on it.
[ Halo menu ]
[ One-time special item ]
[ A strange menu. It displays all the halo-type reward. You can open the menu and choose any one of them to replace the current halo buff. ]
[ Selling price: 25 million ]
[ Note: The new halo still follows the basic principle of the halo-type reward. At the same time, only one can be equipped. Once the new halo is obtained, it will be replaced. ]
What the f*ck!
There was actually such a product?!
Young Master Wang was really shocked. Then, his heart started beating violently.
Beauty + 1 aura. I missed you very much. Did you miss me as well?
Your gentleness was like the flesh in a crab claw. It’s so refreshing and sweet…
One tenth probability?
“Come on, bring me luck!”
Master Wang excitedly turned the roulette, staring at the surface, and praying to the Crab God devoutly.
The needle turned and turned, and finally came to a slow stop. It emitted… a green light.
D*mn!
I didn’t want a green one!
Master Wang wanted to slam the table.
It was supposed to be a good thing that he didn’t miss, but for Master Wang, if he didn’t get the menu he wanted most, everything else would be a failure.
However, the probability was placed there, it was one-in-ten hit and it was indeed not high.
With no other choice, Wang Yan could only look at the reward dejectedly.
[ Profound stickers ]
[ One-time special goods ]
[ Find a book, extract 10 sentences, write them on the stickers, and you will receive a skill reward. ]
[ The more essence the extract is, the more it can reflect the thoughts of the whole book, and the better the reward will be. ]
[ Note 1: This item requires master-level calligraphy as a prerequisite. ]
[ Note 2: The content of the 10 sentences can be passed down from one to another. It can be conflicting with each other, and it also can be explained from multiple angles. However, the skill will also be different because of this. ]
[ Note 3: The lowest level of the skill is beginner, and the highest level is master. ]
[ Note 4: You must use it within 24 hours. ]
F*ck!
Young Master Wang was stunned for a moment before he suddenly muttered to himself, “It smells a little good…”
It was like a magical reward. The scope of expansion was almost limitless, allowing one to let their imagination run wild.
The final result tested both Wang Yan’s wisdom and knowledge structure.
The knowledge structure was very easy to understand. The prerequisite for using the [ profound sticker ] was to understand and read a certain book.
Only then could one extract the most essential sentences.
The meaning of wisdom lay in making a choice.
For the past three months, by reading efficiently for two hours every day., the eager-to-learn Wang read and understood many good books. There were even more if those average were included.
How should he make a choice?
Which direction should he give up and which field should he try?
It was a test of wisdom.
He did not have any idea for the time being. There was still plenty of time, so Wang Yan was not in a hurry to make a decision. He was slowly thinking about it.
The masseuse watched Wang Yan eat his meal at a leisurely pace. He didn’t even finish a simple supper after 20 minutes. Gradually, she felt uneasy.
There were only two people in the room, a man and a woman. The atmosphere was already very gloomy and… Hehe.
It would be better if they chatted.
However, Wang Yan was busy with his own matters. Other than greeting her at the beginning, he didn’t pay any attention to her after that.
It was also the young lady’s first time out of the shop, and it was her first time encountering a “young master that she couldn’t afford to offend”. She didn’t dare to take the initiative to speak, so she could only keep her thought in her own mind, and feeling worried and anxious.
The more she thought about it, the more chaotic it became, and the more anxious she was.
Finally, she couldn’t hold it in anymore, and while Wang Yan was putting down his chopsticks, she opened her mouth to speak.
“Um… President Wang… When do we start?”
Start what?
Oh..
Young Master Wang was stunned for a moment before he realized that there was a great beauty in the room.
He really didn’t forget it on purpose. The main thing was to stay in the presidential suite. There was always someone by his side to serve him. After getting used to it, he would naturally lose interest in outsiders.
“Sorry to make you wait for so long. Let’s start then.”
Wang Yan nodded and rang the bell to call You Cai. Then, he turned around and walked to the bedroom.
You Cai brought the waiters with him, cleaning up the table and serving the fruit plate accordingly. They were extremely agile.
There was a little boy who looked like he was in his early 20s. While he was cleaning up, he quietly raised his head and peeked at the back of the masseuse who was walking towards the bedroom. His Adam’s apple quivered and his eyes were filled with envy.
You Cai had a pair of sneaky eyes. He stared at him but only grinned and didn’t say anything.
No one could be a long-term waiter in a five-star hotel, for not being able to stand that kind of difference.
Master Wang was already considered to be the most decent type of regular guest in the Presidential Suite. It was not even written in the novels on how the rich people indulged themselves.
After reading too much of that kind of indulgence, ordinary people really couldn’t stand it.
Rich took another look at the masseuse and thought to himself, you couldn’t stand it either.
Sooner or later, you would be cheated by the greasy middle-aged man. If you’re smarter and got on Young Master Wang, you would make a huge profit…
Wang Yan: ‘No, I’ll make a loss!’!
…
Whether it was a loss or not was to be discussed. Anyway, Young Master Wang was the one who took the initiative to lie down.
The young lady carried the storage box into the door. When she saw that the VIP was lying down, her heart instantly relaxed.
“Hello, Distinguished Guest. I’m Xue Ru, number 404. The shop didn’t tell what I need to do before. You see…”
Wang Yan had been busy all day. The most tiring part was actually his brain. Next, his calves were a little sore.
The rest of his body parts were not a big problem in front of his 79-point physique and his 19-year-old age.
“Just massage my calves and head.”
“Okay.”
Xue Ru took off her high heels and quietly sat down by the bed.
Wang Yan initially had wanted to chat, but with the sudden appearance of the [ profound sticker ] , his mind was filled with thoughts and he was no longer in the mood.
The room became quiet.
Xue Ru’s technique… emmm, was quite ordinary. It could not be compared to Miss. Yuanxiang from the Shangri La spa in the capital.
When she massaged his legs, her nails poked into his muscles twice. It was very uncomfortable.
But when she massaged her head, her nails scratched her scalp with moderate strength. It was especially comfortable.
What a pain in the ass…
Should he give a good or bad review?
When he turned over and she massaged the front side, her nails poked into his temples again. The young master finally couldn’t hold it in and asked, “Show me your hands.”
“Ah? Oh, okay…”
The young lady was stunned and timidly extended her hands in front of Wang Yan.
The young master took a look and saw ten spring-like fingers. The nails were almost eight millimeters long. There were beautiful patterns drawn on them, shining with a pink luster.
It was beautiful, but it was extremely impractical.
Wang Yan immediately frowned. “How long have you been here? Isn’t there an explicit ban on fingernails in the shop?”
Fu Guige’s temperament was as unpredictable as the wind. Just by frowning, a majestic aura that exuded without anger and prestige seeped out of his body.
Xue Ru could not help but shiver. She avoided looking at him, and her face was slightly red from anxiety.
“Ah? That… we… I’ve only been here for two months… I’m sorry…”
Two months was enough for her to learn the rules.
Wang Yan raised his head and glanced at her. He immediately understood.
She had an oval face, curved eyebrows, big eyes, and snow-white skin. She was very good-looking.
Well, it was another special treatment for beautiful women.
There was an incorrect universal truth in the University of Society — most of the rules were set for the lower and middle class. For the most valuable group of people, managers could not even coax them in time.
In this face-based world, Xue Ru did not need to have any good skills. Just her appearance was enough to become the pillar of the spa, enjoying the double indulgence of the leaders and customers.
Her big eyes blinked, and she was on the verge of tears. Ordinary men really could not stand it.
It was not a big deal to be left and right. Who would have the heart to reprimand her?
He might even take the opportunity to show off his manliness and then find something to take advantage of.
However, among the men who could not stand it, Wang Yan was not included.
There were more than a hundred girls with similar looks lying down in the company — they were not lying now, but they would when he said so.
The young master was not angry over such a small matter, but he was no longer in the mood to continue suppressing it. He stood up and waved his hand.
“Alright, that’s it for today. I’ll still pay, and I’ll give honest feedback on the service assessment. That’s it.”
The young lady panicked and pulled Wang Yan’s arm nervously.
“Director Wang, you…”
Young Master Wang looked into Xue Ru’s eyes quietly. The young lady’s plea was only the beginning, and she held it back.
The new temperament was ethereal and effective. It conveyed emotions accurately and directly, and it was very intimidating.
“Go back. Do what you have to do. I bought a normal service, so we should follow the normal procedures. If there is a next time, I hope you will do what you have to do.”
Wang Yan lay on the bed and prepared to sleep.
The last order was —
“Turn off the lights, don’t close the door.”
Miss. Xue Ru reached out her hand, as if she wanted to grab something. Her fingernails were shining under the light.
Biting her lips, she looked wronged and conflicted. She opened her mouth a few times and closed it a few times.
In the end, she still did not dare to say anything. She quietly got off the bed, picked up her suitcase and high heels, and walked out of the bedroom with her head low.
