400块钱4个小时上门后给钱

“But these are my dad’s connections, and I need a good reason to get him to help.”

“If I say it’s just to help a regular friend, my dad surely won’t agree to it.”

“But if I say it’s for my girlfriend, for his future daughter-in-law, then he’ll agree.”

Chen Guanglei offered up his lofty reason.

It had to be said, it sounded quite reasonable on first hearing.

At least, that’s how Zhao Yulu heard it.

Now, Zhao Yulu hesitated.

The truth was, she wasn’t too fond of Chen Guanglei.

To be Chen Guanglei’s girlfriend, she really hadn’t prepared herself for that.

However, if she could seize this opportunity to become a wealth management manager at the bank, her career would take a big leap forward.

The chance was just too rare.

“Yu Lu, you know how much I like you. Just agree to be my girlfriend and I assure you I’ll treat you well,” he said.

Seeing Zhao Yulu’s hesitation, which clearly showed some inclination, Chen Guanglei naturally pressed on.

“If you can help me land this business, I’ll agree to be your girlfriend,” said Zhao Yulu after a long silence, setting her condition.

“Yu Lu, those are your words; you can’t go back on them,” Chen Guanglei said with bright eyes, a bit excited.

Getting his dad involved was sure to work.

After chasing Zhao Yulu for so long, he finally saw results.

Having Zhao Yulu as his girlfriend meant it wouldn’t be long before they ended up in bed.

Thinking about pressing Zhao Yulu beneath him, Chen Guanglei felt his blood start to boil.

“I won’t go back on my word, but it has to be after the deal is signed,” Zhao Yulu stated.

“No problem, these are all procedural matters. Just get ready to be my girlfriend,” said Chen Guanglei with a big grin.

He decided to talk to his dad about it as soon as he got home, aiming to settle the matter quickly.

“Let’s wait until you help me secure the business,” said Zhao Yulu.

“Don’t worry, when I say it won’t be a problem, it really won’t,” laughed Chen Guanglei, “Oh, and about the Black Stone Tech stocks, tomorrow is the time to buy. You should handle the purchase yourself tomorrow morning.”

Chen Guanglei was aware that Zhao Yulu had borrowed two million from Zhao Yuxin and another million from elsewhere, totaling three million.

“Alright, I will buy in tomorrow,” Zhao Yulu nodded.

This chance to make a lot of money had kept her worried about raising funds for some time. Luckily, with the two million borrowed from Zhao Yuxin, she could invest more than just one million, which wouldn’t earn her much.

Borrowing Zhao Yuxin’s two million and then paying five hundred thousand in interest later was not an issue at all.

After all, Chen Guanglei had said that the price of Black Stone Tech stocks would at least triple.

Two million earning six million, just by paying five hundred thousand in interest, was indeed a very good deal.

“By the way, I’m planning to have my dad invest in a short video platform guild. What do you think?” Chen Guanglei asked casually.

He held a managerial position at his dad’s company, although his role was merely ceremonial; nobody took him seriously, and he wasn’t involved in any specific affairs, often absent.

His dad was the major shareholder of the company. Even if the other shareholders had opinions, they couldn’t do anything about Chen Guanglei.

It was like spending money to keep an idler.

“I may not understand much, but I do know that short videos are all the rage right now. When I’m free, I’ll also scroll through some short videos. If the guild has quality streamers, I think making money shouldn’t be a problem,” Zhao Yulu shared her opinion.

“Heroes think alike. Just a couple of days ago, I was in touch with a small guild. The only issue is that their asking price is a bit steep, five million, and they won’t budge an inch. I’m planning to leave them hanging for a while, wait until they are truly out of options, then invest. I’m certain I can secure it for the lowest price possible,” Chen Guanglei said with a smile.

“Well, I wish you success,” Zhao Yulu said.

“Of course, it’s the first time I’ve ever persuaded my dad to invest. There won’t be any issues. The trend for short videos is already set, now is the perfect time to get in, making money is almost unavoidable,” Chen Guanglei said, brimming with confidence.

…

The following afternoon.

Xu Yang arrived at the Old Tree Cafe on Overlord Street to meet with Xiao Dongsheng.

Xiao Dongsheng was a man in his early thirties, dressed in a smart suit, but his face wore signs of obvious fatigue.

“Mr. Xu, the guild’s asking price for a full acquisition is five million. If you’re willing to accept, we can continue the negotiations. If not, there’s no point in further discussion,” Xiao Dongsheng said bluntly.

Lately, he had received numerous phone calls and met with several people.

Things started off well, but as soon as the acquisition price of five million was mentioned, they would become unhappy and attempt to aggressively lower the price.

Especially two days ago, a second-generation rich kid with the surname Chen even said he’d only take the guild for two million, devaluing it completely, which angered him to the point of almost getting into a physical altercation.

“The price is fine,” Xu Yang said with a smile, “Let’s move on to the other details, shall we?”

After all, the Fengcai Guild would become Douyin’s largest, and it would make a lot of money in the future.

Five million was nothing. He had already closed his futures positions this morning and taken out five million, amassing a total of eight million in cash, ready for the acquisition today.

He wanted to seal the deal swiftly to avoid any complications from arising if he delayed.

If someone else got there first, that would be unfortunate.

Relief washed over Xiao Dongsheng upon hearing this.

If Mr. Xu had not agreed, he would have had to keep waiting.

Debt was currently weighing him down to the point where he was nearly out of breath.

He had borrowed a lot of money to keep the guild running.

Getting his hands on five million to pay off his debts wouldn’t leave him with much.

This was one of the reasons why he stood firm on the five million acquisition price.

If he couldn’t even cover his debts, he’d rather let things fall apart.

Thankfully, after so many days, he finally met someone who could meet his price requirement.

In matters like this, as long as the price was agreed upon, everything else was usually minor.

Xiao Dongsheng said, “Mr. Xu, your offer satisfies me, so I have nothing else to add. Ask any questions you have. You’ve met my requirements; now let’s see if my guild meets yours.”

Xu Yang said, “Mr. Xiao, you really are straightforward. My first condition for acquiring your guild is that you continue as the president. Any issues with that?”

According to the information provided by the system, the Fengcai Guild became Douyin’s top guild under Xiao Dongsheng’s leadership.

Without a doubt, Xiao Dongsheng was an exceptionally talented individual, and it was essential to retain him.

Xiao Dongsheng was taken aback, “Mr. Xu, you plan to have me continue managing the guild?”

Truth be told, Xiao Dongsheng was surprised by Xu Yang’s offer to keep him.

Normally, buyers only retain mid- and lower-level employees, and maybe a few senior ones, but they usually replace the top manager with their own trusted people to better control the guild.

He had not expected Xu Yang to make such a request.
