107: Chapter 107 This will be a major stain on my life.

Su Ye directly rejected the second and third methods. Firstly, he couldn't afford to wait that long, as both Red Star Supermarket and Yuanda Logistics were waiting to be taken over.

As for the third method, Su Ye wasn't being self-deprecating; he really didn't have anyone of that "king of employees" caliber around him.

Therefore, only the first method was suitable for his current situation, and Su Ye prepared to look into the Guangyao International headhunting firm that Yu Chen had recommended.

"Brother Chen, do you have the contact information for Guangyao International?"

Yu Chen took out his phone, forwarded a contact to Su Ye, and said:

"You can look for this person. He is a director at Guangyao International. You can call him Peter Zhang or Old Zhang. He is in charge of the South China region and can help you mobilize resources nationwide and even overseas. Moreover, Old Zhang worked his way up from the bottom; he has very rich resources and will definitely be able to help you find the right person."

"As for other roles like CIO (Chief Investment Officer), CLO (Chief Legal Officer), and CTO (Chief Tax Officer), including their subordinates, as long as you find a suitable CEO, he can help you get them sorted out quickly."

Finally, Chen Ze added:

"Little Su, even after your Family Office is established, you must not hand everything over completely. You must set specific permissions; otherwise, an imperial envoy wielding the Shangfang Sword could potentially bring down a dynasty."

Chen Ze was slightly younger than Yu Chen, and Family Offices were quite popular in his age group. He had seen many people who hired incompetent CEOs and granted them excessive power, only to end up ruining themselves; such cases were everywhere.

After all, ever since the concept of the Family Office entered the country after 2012, thousands of Family Offices of various sizes had been established on the land of Great Xia. The gap in personnel demand was quite large, so it was inevitable that some "instant" CEOs would appear.

Su Ye nodded. He knew Chen Ze was doing this for his own good. He was a person who was generally willing to listen to advice (Han Qiyue doesn't count).

Yu Chen smiled and interrupted the two:

"Alright, we've finished talking business. Let's enjoy the moment while we can. It's past ten, shall we head to the second round?"

Su Ye smiled and said:

"Then I'll leave the arrangements to Brother Chen."

Chen Ze also smiled and said:

"I'm going to sponge off a rich guy today."

Yu Chen rolled his eyes at the two of them and waved his hand:

"Don't worry, today's plans are absolutely solid. But we can only keep it clean; if I get involved in anything sleazy and your sister-in-law smells it on me later, I won't even be able to enter my own house. Right now, your sister-in-law is deeply favored by my parents; I've practically become a live-in son-in-law."

Su Ye had previously seen how Yu Chen's wife could make Zhao Sihan beam with joy in just a few words.

Chen Ze said speechlessly:

"As if I'd dare to play around either. Shanshan's status at home is just as high as mine, and even my sister takes her side."

Looking at the two men staring at each other in silence, Su Ye felt fortunate that his decision not to get married was the right one.

By the time the three arrived at the parking lot, Yu Chen's and Chen Ze's drivers were already waiting. Su Ye looked at the AMG he had asked Chen Ze's driver to bring over earlier and felt a bit helpless. He had quite a few social engagements now, and he couldn't keep calling a designated driver every time; that was a bit beneath his status.

He decided internally that when he contacted the Guangyao International headhunter, he must find a driver. He hadn't forgotten that he still had a bentley bentayga scheduled for delivery at the end of next month.

Chen Ze looked at Su Ye with amusement:

"Ye-zi, you're such a big boss now, yet you drive a sports car around every day. You don't look like the head of a multi-billion enterprise at all."

Su Ye thought, here it comes, it's finally here. He had just been thinking about it, not expecting to be teased so quickly.

"It's just that I haven't had the time. Once I contact Guangyao International, I'll find one."

Chen Ze sat in his Maybach 480 and waved at Su Ye:

"Alright, get in. Later I'll have Xiao Long come over to drive the car back to your place and park it."

Su Ye got into the car, feeling a bit depressed, but in an instant, he was attracted by Chen Ze's car. He had considered the Maybach 480 before, but after comparing it, he still preferred Lincoln.

Chen Ze pulled a bottle of Perrier from the car refrigerator and handed it to Su Ye, smiling:

"How is it? Not bad, right?"

Su Ye nodded:

"It's indeed beautiful, but I've also ordered a bulletproof bentley bentayga, which will arrive at the end of next month."

Chen Ze asked curiously:

"How much did you spend?"

Su Ye said straightforwardly:

"Over ten million..."

Chen Ze looked at Su Ye as if he were looking at a sucker:

"Ye-zi, you used to work in the automotive industry. Have you lost your mind? If you have, brother begs you, never say you came from Chaoyang. I can't afford to lose face like that."

Su Ye looked at Chen Ze speechlessly. Did he really look that much like a sucker? So, he started listing his custom configurations one by one:

"I chose a smoke screen system, fire suppression system+, chassis armor, run-flat tires, audio system, siren..."

"Pfft!"

Chen Ze immediately sprayed the water he was holding in his mouth:

"No way, Little Su, are you going to the Middle East?"

Su Ye looked at Chen Ze strangely, not knowing why he would ask this question.

Chen Ze looked at Su Ye, between laughter and tears:

"Just how afraid of death are you? Driving a bulletproof car in the heartland of Great Xia? Do you think this is the happy United States where there's a gunfight every day? In Great Xia, even using a small handgun would be considered a major criminal case."

As he spoke, Chen Ze pointed to his own Maybach S480:

"My car just has bulletproof doors and bulletproof glass added; nothing else is necessary. As long as a small handgun can't penetrate it, that's enough. Just how afraid of death are you?"

Su Ye just rolled his eyes and said nothing. He had suffered for over twenty years, and now he had money, power, connections, and several beautiful girlfriends. If he kicked the bucket, he would have to give himself two slaps in the face when he got to the underworld.

However, Su Ye had a premonition that his ten-million-plus bulletproof bentley bentayga might become an epic dark history.

Sure enough, as soon as the car stopped, Chen Ze couldn't wait to get out and run towards Yu Chen's car. He pulled Yu Chen out and started laughing while saying something. Su Ye vaguely heard words like "Bentley," "bulletproof version," and "nearly three million in safety options," which made Su Ye clench his fists involuntarily.

Afterward, he felt relieved. He had already spent the money and couldn't return it anyway, and besides, he was just afraid of death—what was wrong with that?

But when Yu Chen and Chen Ze walked over side by side shortly after, their smirking gazes made Su Ye feel the cruelty of the world.

He could only point to the building behind him and say:

"Brother Chen, are we having it here today?"

Yu Chen didn't continue teasing Su Ye:

"It's too late today, so let's just settle for here; it's not bad. When we have time later, I'll take you to The Capital or Shanghai to have some fun; that's where the real money pits are."
