9: Chapter 9 I'm Here to Show Off

Very soon.

The two of them arrived at the 18th floor.

When the receptionist led him to the door of the General Manager's office, Chen Feng couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

"Wasn't it Deputy General Manager Jiang who was looking for me?"

The receptionist giggled. "He is the General Manager now. The documents just arrived from headquarters today.

The former General Manager was transferred to the provincial capital headquarters this morning."

Holy crap!

He got promoted just like that?

Chen Feng finally figured it out.

The video task from earlier was referring exactly to Jiang Dawei's promotion to General Manager!

Inside the office.

The decor was very luxurious, and the space was large.

At this moment, Jiang Dawei was beaming with joy. Seeing Chen Feng's arrival, he smiled and brewed a cup of tea, handing it over. "Authentic Da Hong Pao, give it a taste!"

Chen Feng took a sip.

He felt it was no different from ordinary tea; anyway, he didn't understand tea at all.

"Congratulations, General Manager Jiang, on officially becoming the General Manager!"

Jiang Dawei waved his hand.

Becoming the General Manager of Tianbao Group indeed brought an earth-shattering change to his status and position.

But compared to Chen Feng, he felt somewhat inferior.

"Little Chen—no, I should probably call you Little Manager Chen now."

Jiang Dawei didn't put on any airs of a Tianbao Group General Manager at all; he was even very polite to him. "There have been quite a few rumors about you lately!"

"Rumors about me?"

Chen Feng tilted his head and chuckled. "Is it about me winning 90 million in the lottery yesterday, or that piece of land of mine rising in value to several hundred million, or perhaps that I just bought a 45-million-yuan car?"

"..."

Silence.

Jiang Dawei really wanted to beat him up.

Are you asking me?

No!

You're freaking showing off!

Seeing Chen Feng grinning, Jiang Dawei didn't bother to argue.

He didn't know anything about the lottery.

But the Plot No. 1 that the other party spent 1 million on three years ago had indeed increased in value by over a hundredfold now.

It might soon exceed 200 million, or even 300 million!

To be able to have such an income at such a young age...

It was already terrifying!

Even for Jiang Dawei himself, if he didn't count the shares given by the company...

His annual salary alone was only a bit over ten million!

Jiang Dawei suppressed the urge to pummel Chen Feng and said quickly, "Your judgment back then wasn't wrong. Over these past three years, the city center has gradually been migrating toward the suburbs.

Many developers who had land in the suburbs have made a fortune.

However, I recently received news that Beihu City will build a second commercial center.

And the location has been finalized—it's right on your Plot No. 1!

So, the most profitable thing over on Pingyang Road is still Plot No. 1!

Think about it, once the commercial center is established, the surrounding transportation hubs and medical facilities must be perfected.

That plot of land is large, and every inch is worth its weight in gold. You've really hit the jackpot!"

He felt more and more that Chen Feng's background was not simple!

But...

He had also secretly checked the other's identity. Aside from being an ordinary university student, there was nothing special about him at all.

His family was also very ordinary; his parents were both from the countryside.

Could the data be fake too?

Holy crap!

That would be terrifying!

While Jiang Dawei was filling in the blanks in his own head, Chen Feng smiled faintly. "So, by coming here this time, I also want to take back Plot No. 1.

General Manager Jiang, send me your card number, and I'll transfer the 1 million to you immediately!"

"Little Chen, don't be so polite with me."

Jiang Dawei waved his hand. "I have to thank you for being able to sit in the General Manager's seat. That 1 million from back then isn't worth mentioning. The main reason I asked you here today is that quite a few real estate bosses have been asking about you lately.

They want to buy that land in your hands. Although the land deed is with me...

It is your property after all, so you have to decide for yourself."

As he spoke, he voided the agreement from back then and returned the land deed to Chen Feng.

"Sure, help me get in touch with the buyers."

Chen Feng did not refuse.

Didn't he buy that land back then just to flip it for money?

"Since you have no objections, I'll make an appointment with the other party. It's a good time for you two to meet now."

Jiang Dawei quickly took out his phone and made a call to a friend. "Old Qian, good news. The owner of Plot No. 1 is right here with me.

Didn't you want to buy that land? Now is a good chance!"

"Really? My marketing manager is right near your company. I'll have him rush over to discuss the price first, and I'll be there shortly!"

"Alright."

After Jiang Dawei hung up the phone, he said to Chen Feng, "The buyer will arrange for someone to come over. If you're bored, you can take a look around."

Chen Feng nodded.

He didn't want to disturb Jiang Dawei's work either, so he began to look around.

Ten minutes later.

A familiar figure walked into Tianbao Group.

It was exactly Wang Hai, whom he had encountered at the 4S shop!

The reason his ex-girlfriend Shen Qin had dumped him was because she had latched onto a 'big thigh' like Wang Hai.

"Why are you here?"

Seeing Chen Feng appear at Tianbao Group, Wang Hai was also very surprised.

Previously at the 4S shop, he had completely lost face!

He had to get that face back!

Chen Feng was quite speechless. "Why can't I be here? Tianbao Group isn't your house; I can go wherever I want.

Believe it or not, I can even enter and leave the General Manager's office on the 18th floor as I please!"

"Just a poor student, yet you really think you're something!"

Wang Hai's eyes were full of disdain. "Don't think I don't know your background. You just came into a bit of a windfall.

Now you want to copy others and flex everywhere!

Maybe that pagani of yours was even bought with borrowed money, and now you're probably up to your neck in debt!"

After the incident at the 4S shop...

He had specifically asked Shen Qin about Chen Feng's situation.

He had roughly guessed a few things.

For example, Chen Feng had borrowed 1 million in his freshman year; it was very likely he used it for investment.

Maybe he made a sum of money.

But it was absolutely not enough to buy that pagani!

What kind of business could earn forty or fifty million within three years?

Does he really think money is that easy to make?!

"You still want to enter the General Manager's office? What kind of place do you think Tianbao Group is? This is a place where only social elites are qualified to come!

I'm different from you; I'm here to discuss a big business deal worth over a hundred million!"

As he spoke, Wang Hai puffed out his chest.

He tried his best to look like a successful person. "You will never be able to reach a height like mine. If I close this deal, my annual salary will be over a million!

That's something you won't be able to achieve in a lifetime!"

"Discussing business?"

Chen Feng gave him a strange look.

The buyer for Plot No. 1 wouldn't be the company Wang Hai worked for, would it?

His expression instantly became playful. "The business you're talking about is buying Plot No. 1?"

"How did you know?!"

Wang Hai was instantly stunned.

Chen Feng waved his hand and sneered, "Because I am the owner of Plot No. 1. You still want an annual salary of over a million? You're dreaming!

Get lost, I'm not selling it to you!"

"Hahaha, quit posing in front of me!"

Wang Hai wouldn't believe a word he said. He shouted toward the security guards in the distance, "Security! How are you doing your jobs? How do you dare let just anyone into Tianbao Group!

This person is swindling and bluffing everywhere, seriously affecting your company's image. Hurry up and kick him out!"
