Chapter 298: They're too generous with their investment.

As for Manager Li Tao, he appeared calm on the surface, but inside, he was in turmoil.

Manager Li Tao had known Zheng Qian for over three years, and for three of those years, he had been Zheng Qian's superior.

He knew Zheng Qian much better than Chen Weiqiang or Liu Shiqi did.

But after leaving their old company, it was as if Zheng Qian had become a different person.

Who would have thought he was actually this wealthy?

Did he suddenly inherit a huge fortune?

Or did Zheng Qian secure a massive investment from somewhere without telling a soul in the company?

"President Zheng, how do you plan to develop Qianhe Group moving forward?"

Zheng Qian could see that the expressions on the three of them were quite unnatural.

Chen Weiqiang asked cautiously, likely afraid of saying the wrong thing.

In reality, he had already arranged how the three cruise ships would be developed and operated; The Group just needed to sit back and collect the money.

He had money now, so the next step was definitely to expand the scale of The Group and simultaneously venture into other industries.

As for how exactly to expand, Zheng Qian hadn't decided yet. But there was no need to worry.

He had money now, and if he wanted to make more, he could just take some ladies out and trigger the system's cash rebates.

Since investing in Zhengxin Shipyard, Zheng Qian hadn't touched a single cent from the company's accounts, not even his own share.

He wasn't short on money right now. His main goal was to forge an impregnable business empire.

Even if the system disappeared one day, Zheng Qian would still be able to live the rest of his life without a care.

"There's no rush for that."

"When you have some free time, put together a list. I want to establish a special task force."

Zheng Qian told them about the three cruise ships and the white knight.

The reason for establishing the task force was to learn from the operational and management experience of Asia Shipping. The people chosen must be reliable.

Chen Weiqiang nodded. "No problem, leave that to me."

"President Zheng, you've worked hard these past few days in Jiangnan. I've already booked a banquet at Luyuan Villa to celebrate your success!"

"Huh? Is that really necessary?"

Zheng Qian scratched his head; he really didn't know what he had contributed.

In Zheng Qian's eyes, he had just triggered some cash rebates.

But in the eyes of others, especially the vice presidents of Qianhe Group—Liu Shiqi, Chen Weiqiang, and Manager Li Tao—it was nothing short of a stroke of genius.

Being coerced by the three of them, it wouldn't be good for Zheng Qian to refuse.

"Fine, fine, fine, we'll go after work then."

Zheng Qian couldn't withstand their enthusiasm, so after agreeing, he returned to his office.

"Phew~" Zheng Qian let out a long sigh. He first called Jin Lu.

After it connected, "Shuangshuang, the vice presidents insist on throwing me a celebration banquet. Do you want to come and eat with us?" Zheng Qian asked, feeling a bit guilty.

He had neglected Jin Lu these past few days and wanted her to appear in public more often to show her status.

For one, it could strengthen their relationship. For another, it could let Jin Lu reaffirm her position as the primary partner.

Even if Jiang Yanran was sought after by thousands, or no matter how good Song Yaxian or Xu Shuyun were, in Zheng Qian's heart, Jin Lu was always his number one.

Even if he were to get married, Jin Lu would be his first choice. The others would have to wait.

Jiang Yanran had a strong aura, but compared to Jin Lu, she was still lacking.

Besides, a proud daughter of heaven like her, who had never done a day's housework, certainly wouldn't help him wash clothes or anything in the future.

If they were both busy with their own things every day, it would be boring. Jin Lu was more feminine.

There was no response on the other end of the line for a long time. Zheng Qian thought Jin Lu was secretly angry at him.

"I won't go to your company's celebration banquet."

"There's a lot going on at the coffee shop lately, and exams are coming up soon; I don't have time to study."

"Have a good time, Mua~"

Hmm... She didn't sound angry.

"Do you need me to drive for you tonight?" Xia Xixi knocked and walked in. She already knew about the celebration banquet that evening.

With all the members of Qianhe Group, it would probably be over a hundred tables. Zheng Qian would have to drink a lot.

Having not seen Zheng Qian for a few days, Xia Xixi subconsciously wanted to get close to him, which is why she took the initiative to ask if he needed her to drive.

"Sure." Zheng Qian tossed the car keys through the air to Xia Xixi. "It's about time, let's go now."

Xia Xixi looked at the heavy, high-quality "little bull" key in her hand. Her expression was filled with surprise, even causing her nasolabial folds to appear.

She didn't know much about cars, but who didn't recognize the little bull logo? Lamborghini!

Zheng Qian really spent a lot of money on this trip to Jiangnan.

"Go to the basement and bring the car out."

After Zheng Qian went downstairs, he found a dozen Toyota Alphards parked at the building's entrance. These were cars specifically prepared by Chen Weiqiang for the company's executive team.

"President Zheng, how do you plan to get there? Did you drive? If not, I can arrange a car for you," Chen Weiqiang said with a smile.

He used to be very pragmatic and never cared about appearances. But Zheng Qian had him confused now, so he had to accommodate it a little.

Zheng Qian didn't answer. Instead, the low roar of a V16 engine filled the air. The scissor doors opened, and Xia Xixi stepped out of the car.

This... is this a Lamborghini Veneno K?

Chen Weiqiang, Manager Li Tao, and the others couldn't believe their eyes. The only Veneno K in the world?

It was rumored to be in the hands of some big shot in Jiangnan! How could Zheng Qian have this car?

He went on a trip to Jiangnan and managed to get his hands on a Veneno K?

The company employees who witnessed this were even more astonished. They were convinced they had come to the right place.

The chairman driving a car like this showed just how powerful Qianhe Group was. A Veneno K wasn't something you could just buy with money.

It indirectly demonstrated just how vast Zheng Qian's connections and social resources were.

They believed that as long as they worked hard at Qianhe Group, even if they couldn't drive a car like that in the future, at the very least, they would be able to afford a Mercedes-Benz or BMW.

Zhong Xiaoyao and Qin Xueli had just finished clocking out. As soon as they came down, they saw Xia Xixi getting out of the Lamborghini.

What was going on??? Zheng Qian got a Lamborghini? Or did Zheng Qian give it to Xia Xixi?

He had previously given her a Mercedes-AMG worth several million. Now he got a supercar too.

Although neither of them knew much about cars, with those scissor doors opening, it had to be worth at least several million, right? Maybe even tens of millions!

He was willing to spend so much for a female secretary!

Subconsciously, Zhong Xiaoyao and Qin Xueli looked at each other. They felt a bitter taste in their hearts.

"President Chen, Manager Li, I'll head off first." After greeting them, Zheng Qian sat in the passenger seat of the Lamborghini.

After getting in the car, Xia Xixi hesitated to start driving. "Step on the gas and go," Zheng Qian asked, confused.

"How about you drive? I'm afraid of getting into an accident on the road and damaging it."

"This car looks so, so expensive, and the visibility is bad, it's not easy to handle. When I was just leaving the basement, I almost hit the wall."
