Upon learning of Ma Dongxiangâs identity, everyone looked somewhat uncomfortable, but most were excited.
It seemed they hadnât expected such an important person to come in person.
Ma Dongxiang, with his hands behind his back, spoke with feigned earnestness,
âThis time, my main purpose in coming here is to check on your work. Additionally, our group has spent 100 billion to purchase a plot of land in Zhong Hai, planning to make it the headquarters for the Asia-Pacific region. You will soon have a new office location, and we will also provide you with housing and cars. As long as everyone works hard, I wonât let you down.â
Hearing this, everyone became even more excited, their eyes seemingly shooting sparks, and then they began to applaud, continuing until their hands were red and still not stopping.
Li Dongxiang waved his hand with a solemn expression, and the clapping slowly subsided.
He turned his gaze to Lin Yi.
âYoung man, I heard you recruited ten people in less than an hour?â
âYes,â Lin Yi replied with a beaming smile.

âVery good. I think you have great potential. Starting today, you are the general agent for Zhonghai Songjiang District. All new members who join later will be under you.â
Upon hearing this, the eyes of others present lit up with fervor, for this was what they had been hoping for.
After briefly chatting with Lin Yi, Ma Dongxiang looked at the others, speaking with a hint of seriousness,
âI know youâre not convinced inside. We all started together, so why can he become the regional general agent while youâre lower than him by a level? Itâs unavoidable, because his abilities are above yours, so he deserves this. But I can assure you, if you work hard, you can be like him one day.â
Encouraged by Ma Dongxiang, a look of longing once again appeared in everyoneâs eyes.
Then, Li Jianfei whispered something to him, and Ma Dongxiang nodded and said to Lin Yi,
âNow that youâre a general agent for the group, come with me to the site tomorrow and share your success story with everyone.â
Lin Yi was a bit stunned. He hadnât done anything, so where did this success story come from?
But he didnât want to embarrass the other party and promptly agreed.
After showing off for a while, Ma Dongxiang left.
But Li Jianfei stayed behind, watching Lin Yi and the others.
âNow itâs break time. Iâll take you to your accommodations, but donât idle during the break. Think about who you can recruit tomorrow so you can get promoted and earn more money sooner.â
âUnderstood, Director Li.â
Soon, Li Jianfei led everyone to their room on the second floor. There were eight beds, all bunk beds, and he said,
âYouâll stay here tonight, and weâll all get up at seven tomorrow.â
The lodging facilities made everyone frown. They had thought theyâd be staying in luxurious private rooms tonight, but it turned out to be simple bunk beds.
âAre we really going to stay in a place like this?â someone questioned.
Li Jianfei nodded, âThereâs another room inside. Men and women will stay separately. Bear with it for now. After our building is completed, weâll move to a new place.â
Hearing this, no one said anything more. After all, they werenât here for enjoyment; earning money was more important than anything.
âCan I get a different room?â asked Lin Yi,
âI am the general agent now, after all. Shouldnât my treatment be a little different?â
Li Jianfei thought for a moment, then smiled and said,
âYouâre right. You should have a room to yourself.â
He couldnât resist showing off even at this moment, addressing the others,
âWhen you reach the level of a general agent, youâll also receive such treatment. I hope everyone works hard.â
Amid othersâ envious gazes, Li Jianfei took Lin Yi to a room next door.
Although it was also a bed in a bunk setup, there was no one else but him.
âYouâll stay here tonight. Perform well tomorrow, and share your experiences with everyone.â
âGot it.â
After Lin Yi entered the room, Li Jianfei closed the door and turned to his men, saying,
âKeep a close watch tonight. If you find anything amiss, take them away directly.â
âUnderstood, Brother Fei.â
Having arranged everything, Li Jianfei left and then found Ma Xiangdong.
At that moment, Ma Xiangdong was drinking in his room, a table laid out with various snacks, looking relaxed and content.
âBoss, everything is arranged.â
Ma Dongxiang nodded, âIâve checked the accounts just now. Weâve made a good profit, over two million so far. Weâll make one more score tomorrow, then pull out and no longer need to hide from them.â
âUnderstood, boss,â Li Jianfei said,
âBut I think that Lin Yi should be given special attention. He has good connections, and we might be able to make a hefty sum from him.â
âThatâs what I was thinking. Donât let any of these people slip away easily. If soft tactics donât work, then weâll use hard ones. I refuse to believe we canât handle them.â
âUnderstood, boss.â
â¦
The next morning, everyone got up early.
After breakfast, only Lin Yi and Li Jianfei and others set off.
Because they planned to make a final big score, Ma Dongxiang also went along, ready to pull off a big hit.
Upon arrival at the designated location, they meticulously set up counterfeit and inferior cosmetics on the table, making others think they were the companyâs products, and then waited for people coming to attend the speech.
Around ten oâclock, a dozen or so people had arrived one after another, and Li Jianfei brought them to Lin Yi, whispering,
âAre the people you invited not here yet?â
âNot yet, but they should be arriving soon, donât worry.â Lin Yi said with a smile,
âThey are my good friends. Since they promised to join, they will definitely come.â
Ma Dongxiang and Li Jianfei exchanged glances, feeling that Lin Yi was too calm with their years of experience in swindling.
He should be anxious at this time because if people donât come, it will affect him as well.
âLin Yi, although weâre in this together, I have to say this upfront: if something goes wrong, youâll be responsible,â Li Dongxiang said.
Lin Yi looked at him with interest.
âIâd like to know, what kind of responsibility will I have?â he asked calmly.
Ma Dongxiangâs expression turned colder, âI canât say for now, but youâll know when the time comes.â
âDonât talk like that, itâs making me scared. Should I make a phone call to check in?â
Ma Dongxiang nodded, then signaled Li Jianfei to hand his phone to Lin Yi.
Taking the phone, Lin Yi dialed Liang Ruoxuâs number.
âWhere are you? Have you arrived?â
âIâll be there soon, donât be anxious,â Liang Ruoxu said indifferently.
