The Hӓstens mattress priced at 200,000, an OGAWA massage chair worth 88,000, a nearly 60,000 100-inch Sony wall-mounted television...
Those little items like beauty devices costing over ten thousand, Samsung foldable phones, and such things looked "unremarkable" among them.
Two ladies nearby quickly added it up and found it unbelievable.
That is to say, the stuff loaded in this truck could easily be worth one or two million.
"...Wasn’t it said that Jiang’s daughter is just Zhou Wang’s secretary, earning only ten to twenty thousand a month?"
"Who the hell spread that nonsense? This isn’t a secretary’s treatment, it’s like she’s his wife... Even if she’s the secretary, giving away millions at random, I’d surely tell my daughter to go find Zhou Wang!"
"Sister Qin, your daughter is already married..."
"So what, she can divorce, right?"
The two ladies were murmuring to each other, while Jiang Jiaxing and Li Xiaolei also had mixed feelings.
They actually wanted to refuse, but really didn’t know how to open their mouths.
Zhou Wang’s sudden "Mid-Autumn Festival big gift" had utterly left them dumbfounded.
But no matter what, looking at the envious eyes of Old Wang and his wife, and the neighbor ladies too, Jiang could only feel that the resentment accumulated due to recent gossip was beginning to fade...
Who the heck will say again that my daughter was forced to work with Zhou Wang because she couldn’t find a job?
And heck, who dares to say that my Qingkui is getting worse over time?
They still couldn’t determine why Zhou Wang sent these gifts, but from any angle, it was an undeniable display of how much he valued their daughter, enough to make Jiang Jiaxing and Li Xiaolei feel greatly vindicated!
"Don’t just stand outside, come in, Ms. Chen, come on in and take a seat... Sister Qin, Sister Hong, you join too, let’s have lunch together!"
Li Xiaolei, beaming with joy, loudly invited everyone in.
...
"Boss, as you instructed, the gifts have been delivered. I also visited your parents, and the gifts you prepared for them were delivered too... Judging from their looks, they seem pretty well, you don’t have to worry."
In the afternoon, in the suite of the Waldorf Courtyard Hotel, Zhou Wang received a video call from Chen Mei.
...Even though he had no idea why Chen Mei had to video call him, Zhou Wang didn’t really like videos, always feeling that the camera had some issue and eroded his handsomeness.
Hearing that Chen Mei had successfully completed the task, Zhou Wang didn’t hesitate to offer a few compliments. Seeing Chen Mei’s joyful expression, Zhou Wang could vaguely guess what she was thinking and, after a slight hesitation, spoke up:
"Keep up the good work... When I get back to Ming City, let’s sign a contract."
After working hard for so long, finally hearing those words she most wanted, Chen Mei’s eyes instantly reddened, almost moved to tears with joy.
From the beginning when she willingly became Zhou Wang’s personal housekeeper, wasn’t it just for this moment of "becoming official"?
Although her current employer, Yalong Property, recently offered her a promotion opportunity, without a doubt, if Zhou Wang formally hired her, she would undoubtedly drop her job at Yalong Real Estate.
Every month, the bonus Zhou Wang occasionally gave her was already three to four times her regular salary...
And as for Zhou Wang, after sorting out his thoughts recently, he realized that due to the wait for recruiting a bodyguard, the progress of the third action round was a bit too slow.
Recruiting two more positions will complete the third action round, so whether it was hiring Chen Mei as the housekeeper or turning Lin Ran into his personal assistant, both were good options for pushing the progress.
After concluding the business, just before hanging up, Chen Mei couldn’t help but ask another question, "Mr. Zhou, around when will you be coming back?"
"I’m not sure yet, I still have to make a trip to Magic City afterward, which should take a while."
"Oh... Well then, Mr. Zhou, I’ll, I’ll just wait for you at home."
Chen Mei, unable to hide her disappointment, paused, seemingly wishing to say more, then waved goodbye to Zhou Wang.
Zhou Wang didn’t know why she was blushing, but after hanging up the phone, he checked his bank messages, and upon seeing the total amount spent today, "2.13 million," he smacked his lips.
Currently, the cash he had, after consecutive expenses and minor income, was only about seven million remaining.
Not very abundant.
Originally it was less than twenty million, but when purchasing the Sun Palace in Li City, Zhou Wang had actually only loaned ten million, taking out ten million himself, so he was left with less than ten million, and today he spent two million in one go.
Having strained cash flow wasn’t the end, there was also a ten million loan which needed quick attention, considering interest was accumulating daily.
"There’s another large expense today, and I still don’t know when Wuyou Media’s annual dividend will arrive..."
Zhou Wang murmured and then called Lin Ran, who was managing his short video account.
"Double-check with Jiuji Network over there to confirm whether I need to advance funds; if not, then release the new video..."
"Okay, Mr. Zhou!"
Lin Ran responded and went ahead to arrange it.
Having set everything in order, Zhou Wang took a deep breath and stood up. With the help of Yun Rou, he adjusted his outfit again. Once he confirmed he still looked incredibly handsome today, he pushed his sunglasses up the bridge of his nose.
"Yun Lan, go inform Qingkui and Miao Ying, it’s time to set off."
Next stop, make a mark at Douyin Group.
