16: Spend a billion and get 10 billion back!

'Three billion?!'

While this number shocked everyone present, it also made General Manager Meng's heart restless and beat fiercely.

He knew very well that even if the future market was excellent, and he made every decision correctly without any mistakes, it would still be impossible for him to earn three billion.

General Manager Meng had to admit that he was indeed tempted.

After a quick internal struggle, he nodded heavily, his gaze firm, "Since Chen Zong has said so much, I won't refuse any longer. Three billion, I'll sell! Let's sign the contract now!"

His eager look was as if he was afraid Chen Ming would regret it.

He decided that as soon as the contract was signed and the money arrived, he would immediately take the money and immigrate to the Eagle Faction to enjoy his life.

Three billion was enough for him to live without worries about food and drink, and spend lavishly for the rest of his life.

Little did he know, soon, not only this money, but whether it was da xia coin, US dollars, Euros... they would all become waste paper, worthless!

"Okay," Chen Ming nodded in agreement.

"This way, please," he said, gesturing with his hand.

At this moment, in General Manager Meng's eyes, Chen Ming was definitely a god of wealth and must be served well.

"Hey! Chen..."

Zhao Ya, who had reacted, still wanted to follow, wanting to proactively admit her mistake to Chen Ming and say that everything she said before was a joke, asking him not to mind.

Let alone agreeing to be Chen Ming's girlfriend or wife, even if Chen Ming wanted her to go to a hotel with him right now, Zhao Ya would not refuse.

"Excuse me, no loitering!" Who would have thought that just as she was about to enter, she was stopped by a security guard reaching out.

The security guard was a smart person, how could he not see that Chen Ming did not want to get involved with Zhao Ya.

Zhao Ya was just about to speak, to scold the security guard for being blind, and reveal her classmate relationship with Chen Ming.

Then she heard Chen Ming say, "This person is very good and deserves praise."

"Right! You're right, well done," General Manager Meng raised both hands and feet in agreement, turning back to shout, "Go to the finance office later to collect a ten thousand bonus."

"Thank you, Chen Zong! Thank you, General Manager Meng!" The security guard repeatedly thanked them.

After getting the money, it was even more impossible for him to let Zhao Ya in.

Facing the security guard's large physique of over 1.8 meters, just a slight fierce expression from him could make Zhao Ya's body and mind tremble.

"Xiaoya, are you okay?" Seeing Zhao Ya walk back like a drowned dog, Lin Wei outwardly showed concern, but inwardly she was overjoyed.

She inwardly cursed Zhao Ya for getting what she deserved.

The more miserable she was, the happier Lin Wei became, because only then would the possibility between herself and Chen Ming be greater.

"That snobbish thing! Once I get Chen Ming and become his woman, I'll definitely fire that guy immediately!" Zhao Ya glared fiercely at the security guard.

The security guard was completely unaffected, his mind was full of thoughts about whether to take the ten thousand yuan and treat his wife and children to a good meal.

He was very grateful to Chen Ming in his heart.

After seeing the previously arrogant Zhao Ya suffer a setback, the onlookers were not going to let her off easily either, saying one after another:

"Hahaha, go tell Batman, the Joker has been found."

"These young people nowadays will do anything to curry favor with the wealthy."

"Saying others are snobbish, huh, aren't you the one who's truly snobbish?"

"Gold digger, so disgusting! Weren't you quite arrogant just now? Why aren't you arrogant anymore all of a sudden?"

"..." Zhao Ya suddenly became the target of public criticism.

Knowing she was in the wrong, she chose to leave with her tail between her legs.

After all, she wasn't Zhuge Liang and didn't have the ability or eloquence to debate against a group of scholars.

"Hey! Wait for me," Lin Wei suppressed her laughter and chased after Zhao Ya...

Ding!

On Chen Ming's side, after exiting the elevator, he went directly to General Manager Meng's office.

To be precise, it wouldn't take long before this office would belong to him.

General Manager Meng had already contacted his secretary in advance, asking her to find a template contract for property sale, download it, print it, and bring it over.

Dong! Dong! Dong!

In just a few minutes, the secretary knocked on the door and entered the office with the printed contract.

General Manager Meng picked up the pen, signed his name neatly, then pushed the pen and contract in front of Chen Ming, "Chen Zong, you can take a look first and confirm if there are any issues with the contract."

"Any issues can be discussed and amended."

Chen Ming casually flipped through a few pages, then took out his phone and opened his banking app.

After General Manager Meng provided the card number, he transferred three billion.

"Okay! No problem, the money has arrived," General Manager Meng confirmed the account balance with a glance, then gestured for Chen Ming to sign the contract.

Chen Ming didn't waste any time, he picked up the pen and signed, officially buying this luxurious large shopping mall.

[Consumption of three billion successful! Ten times rebate triggered, congratulations to the host for obtaining thirty billion!]

Buzz buzz buzz!

The phone vibrated.

He took it out, unlocked it, and opened the text message.

As expected, 30,000,000,000 arrived!

Just looking at this string of numbers made one's adrenaline surge.

Chen Ming had to admit, the feeling of getting a ten times return on whatever amount was spent...

Cool! It was truly too cool!

"Since the contract has been finalized and is legally binding, I won't bother you further," General Manager Meng stood up and left.

In the office, only Chen Ming remained, along with the secretary who was previously responsible for printing and delivering the contract.

Chen Ming looked at the secretary and said, "Starting today, the shopping mall will be closed. As for the specific opening time, I will notify you when the appropriate time comes."

"This, Chen Zong, isn't that good?" The secretary didn't understand why Chen Ming would make such a decision.

Three billion had just been spent, shouldn't the current consideration be to find ways to expand the business and earn the money back?

"I have already found a professional team and am preparing to fully renovate the shopping mall to make it the best in Great Xia, no, the world," Chen Ming said in a calm tone.

His ability to lie with a straight face was already perfected.

"So that's it," the secretary finally realized. It turned out that Chen Ming was planning something big.

Indeed, the willingness to spend three billion to buy this shopping mall itself was an action that could shake the entire circle.

There are many wealthy people in Jiang City, but very few who can casually take out three billion in liquid funds!

"Don't worry, you won't be treated unfairly. During this period, everyone will have paid leave. If you're not at ease, you can sign a supplementary contract," Chen Ming, who knew the apocalypse was approaching, didn't care at all.

Even if the apocalypse didn't come, there was still the ten times rebate as a fallback. How much could mere paid leave cost?

"I understand! I'll go notify everyone right away!" Hearing this, the secretary beamed with joy and no longer tried to persuade Chen Ming.

She had long wanted to take a good vacation, travel around, and relax her body and mind.

Now, Chen Ming was willing to give them paid leave, so the secretary had no reason to refuse.

At this moment, Chen Ming's status in her mind was comparable to a modern-day sage.

Soon, all the shopping mall's customers were asked to leave.

They proactively offered some small compensatory gifts to prevent complaints.

As the saying goes, accepting favors makes one indebted.

Boom boom boom!

Ten minutes later, all the main entrances and passages were tightly closed and locked.

Only Chen Ming was left alone, facing a large pile of survival supplies that would be more valuable than mountains of gold and silver in the future.
