Stronger by Paying Salaries and I Have 1 Billion Employees

June 1st, the height of summer had arrived.

A shrill burst of cicada calls erupted from the branches of the parasol trees, fraying one’s nerves.

In Room 0418, Chen Yansen sat on the sofa as his Divine Sense swept through a fifteen-meter radius around him.

In an instant, a dozen sparrows and swallows, along with dozens of chirping cicadas, fled in a panicked scramble, as if they had seen some terrifying creature.

Just a dozen seconds later, the surroundings fell completely silent.

Chen Yansen glanced at his system panel. His Spirit attribute had been enhanced again, increasing from 44.95 to 55.64.

The perception of his Divine Sense grew more refined; he could now clearly make out even the flyspeck-sized print on a package.

His detection range continued to expand, and his telekinetic ability was significantly stronger—he could effortlessly ’lift’ a 500-milliliter bottle of mineral water.

’For every 10-point increase in my Spirit attribute, the weight limit for my telekinesis more than triples. By that logic, I won’t even need to reach 100 points before I can lift a 300-jin object with my Spiritual Power.’

After a moment of thought, Chen Yansen came to a conclusion.

’This damn system is actually pretty impressive!’

Chen Yansen gestured with his hand, and the car keys on the coffee table flew into his grasp.

He pushed the door open, went downstairs, and sat in the driver’s seat of his Bentley, speeding down Xue Lin Road toward the Science and Technology Park.

The road was filled with vibrant and youthful female students. Most wore thin, tight-fitting short T-shirts paired with short floral skirts, revealing their fair, slender legs.

The commercial street across from the East Gate of Xuyuan had gained several more hotels and internet cafes compared to two years ago. The former satisfied physical needs, while the latter satisfied spiritual ones.

Restaurants were doing exceptionally well. With graduation season approaching, they were packed every day. Groups of young people would hold their cups, their eyes red, and say, ”We have to get together often! Brothers, we have to make something of ourselves!”

Little did they know, for most of them, this would be the last time they ever saw each other.

Seven or eight years later, upon reaching middle age, forget about becoming wildly successful—they’d often find themselves forcing a smile and admitting fault just to keep their jobs, even after being viciously chewed out by their boss.

Working hard, getting promoted, earning a raise—it’s all fucking bullshit!

Making money is all that matters!

Heaven doesn’t reward the diligent. Only by being thick-skinned and black-hearted can one be invincible.

Ten minutes later, Chen Yansen parked his car on the ground floor of the Science and Technology Park, walked into Building 9, and took the elevator to his top-floor office.

He turned on his computer and opened his email.

The first email was from Gao Weilin. The industrial plot of land that Meng Yuanzhi had promised him had been approved. It covered an area of 470,000 square meters and was located near the South Second Ring Road in the Baohe District, close to Luzhou South Station and the main urban area, with well-developed transportation and supporting infrastructure.

After a moment’s thought, Chen Yansen sent a message to Wang Xueting from the HR department, telling her to start recruiting a project director, civil engineers, and construction supervisors to begin forming Orange Technology’s construction management department.

The upcoming work—headquarters design, surveying and mapping, project budgeting, construction bidding, and acceptance—all required their own in-house team.

Otherwise, stumbling into even a small pitfall could result in losses of tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions.

The second email was a work report from Pei Yi. In late May, Kuai Pao had launched in three consecutive cities in Huian Province, and its average daily order volume had surpassed one million for the first time.

Following that were business and financial weekly reports from subsidiaries like the Orange Phone Factory, Gaode Map, Cloud Speed Express, and Byte.

Chen Yansen worked quickly. In less than ten minutes, he had arranged everything in perfect order.

After finishing the miscellaneous tasks, he opened the Eclipse CDT editor and continued writing the mobile operating system.

His train of thought was only broken by a knock on the door.

”Come in!” Chen Yansen replied coolly.
