Stronger by Paying Salaries and I Have 1 Billion Employees

”Good. I can always count on you to get things done.” Chen Yansen patted Old Gao on the shoulder and said with a light chuckle.

”President Chen, see you at Luzhou Prefecture at 6 p.m.”

Xu Minggang reminded him again before leaving. It was clear his earlier words weren’t just polite pleasantries; he genuinely wanted to build a connection with Chen Yansen.

”Of course, President Xu.”

Chen Yansen responded with a smile, planning to bring a couple of bottles of good liquor to the dinner.

The three parties agreed to formally sign the contract tomorrow.

Wang Qingsheng, having lost face because of Chen Yansen, left without even saying goodbye.

They left the Central Bureau and returned to the hotel.

Chen Yansen sent Old Gao out to buy liquor, while he took Meng Jie back to their room to rest.

”Sigh, a working man’s life is a hard life.”

Gao Weilin rubbed his lower back, which was sore from sitting all morning, then turned and headed straight for a high-end shopping mall nearby.

When he returned, he was carrying two bottles of 80-year-old Moutai.

He knew that most bosses in the Mainland weren’t fond of whiskey or red wine, but had a special preference for baijiu.

「They rested at the hotel for the afternoon.」

It wasn’t until 5:30 p.m. that Chen Yansen left for the dinner with Gao Weilin.

This meal with Xu Minggang was simply a chance to gain a deeper understanding of the multifaceted situation in Luzhou.

”President Chen, don’t pay any mind to that Wang Qingsheng. The guy’s just a blockhead. With Meng Yuanzhi backing you, he wouldn’t dare pull any dirty tricks behind your back. At most, he’ll just bark a little.”

Xu Minggang cursed, his face flushed after three glasses of liquor.

It was obvious he and Wang Qingsheng didn’t get along, otherwise he wouldn’t be insulting Wang Qingsheng so openly in front of Chen Yansen.

”Does he have connections higher up?” Chen Yansen pressed.

”A few, but not many. Otherwise, he would have stormed out this morning instead of swallowing his anger and toughing it out until the negotiation was over.”

Xu Minggang didn’t hold back. He whispered a few words, revealing everything about Wang Qingsheng’s background.

After hearing this, Chen Yansen’s worries instantly vanished.

The two of them exchanged toasts, and after a few rounds of drinks, they headed to the restroom together.

”President Zhang, look over there. Isn’t that President Chen Yansen from Pinbei?”

Just then, in an adjacent private room, a young man nudged his boss.

’Pinbei?’

Hearing that name, Zhang Liaoyuan instantly sobered up. He looked closely and immediately confirmed that his assistant wasn’t mistaken.

In mid-December of last year, he had emptied his entire savings and, with funding from several other bosses, founded Three Squirrels.

’He was preparing to focus on online sales channels!’

’Now the big shot was right in front of him. How should he go over and build a connection?’

Zhang Liaoyuan’s mind raced. Seeing the two men walk out of the restroom and about to return to their private room...

...he couldn’t afford to overthink it and hurriedly got up and rushed out!
