Celestial Master： I Have an Otherworld-Chapter 266 - 91: Business! Arrogance!
The former tattoo enthusiast, now bodyguard and driver Tian Liang turned the steering wheel, smoothly guiding the black business car onto the highway.
Behind the partition, there were four airline seats facing each other.
Dapeng was sunk deep into the seat, eyes vacant, silent for a long time, seemingly still immersed in the atmosphere of the gathering.
"What are you thinking about?"
Sitting opposite, Fang Zheng fiddled with his phone and smiled:
"Surprised by my success now?"
"Quite surprised, actually." Dapeng's eyes moved slightly, saying:
"I never expected my buddy to be so capable, now I have something impressive to boast about to people."
"Monk..."
"How did you do it?"
"Coincidence." Fang Zheng shrugged:
"Luck accounted for ninety percent, only ten percent was skill."
"Why don't I have such good luck?" Dapeng shook his head, not probing further, but rather contemplatively said:
"I've made up my mind."
"Getting married!"
"Really?" Fang Zheng was astonished, saying:
"If you're really getting married, I'll definitely send a generous gift, but the Jiang Family doesn't lack money, so I have to think carefully about what gift to give."
"No." Dapeng shook his head:
"I'm not marrying Jiang Han, I'm marrying Nannan."
"Ah!" Fang Zheng was taken aback:
"Weren't you here today to propose to Jiang Han? And you and Nannan... didn't you two already break up?"
"Didn't break up smoothly." Dapeng sat up from the seat:
"After today's experience, I finally understand what type of woman is suitable for me; Jiang Han and I are not on the same path."
"You need to think carefully." Fang Zheng put away his phone and said seriously:
"Jiang Han has a high education, a good family; even her looks are decent. Nannan didn't even graduate from middle school, comes from a rural home, and works in real estate sales."
"I don't have any prejudice against social status, but these two..."
"They are indeed quite different."
Marrying Jiang Han, the Jiang Family could provide Dapeng with a platform and support, benefiting not only him but also his relatives and future generations.
Whereas Nannan...
Would bring a lot of burdens.
Of course,
this is without factoring in emotions, which cannot be clearly calculated.
"I understand." Dapeng sighed:
"If I marry Jiang Han, I'll save ten years of detours in life, this is not a joke, it really means saving ten years of hard work."
"But Monk..."
"Do you think Jiang Han and I are compatible?"
Fang Zheng remained silent.
Only the involved know if they are compatible; he never meddles in others' relationships, partly because he doesn't understand, and partly because it can ruin a romance.
"After you left, I talked with others."
Dapeng scratched his head, saying:
"I couldn't understand what they were talking about and wasn't interested."
"What channels, what tax burdens, what international environment... Just thinking about living that kind of life every day makes my scalp tingle."
"Making money." Fang Zheng spoke:
"That's how it is!"
"I can't learn it." Dapeng shook his head repeatedly:
"Everyone knows studying well is good for the future, but back in school, I couldn't stay awake reading, and now it's the same, I zone out when business talk starts."
"Just drifting through life suits me best."
Fang Zheng was speechless.
"And that brother-in-law." Dapeng sneered, looking disdainful:
"Switching faces as if trained; sarcastic at one moment, superior the next, then warm as a close brother."
"I've got no such skill!"
Actually, Dapeng knew very well that talents like Jiang Shuo are more likely to stand out; not everyone can endure humiliation with grace.
Being slapped in the face, yet still smiling and getting close.
How many can do that?
Moreover, the other party has real skills and is willing to strive; if he doesn't succeed, who will?
"Ah!"
Sighing, Dapeng said:
"I'm destined to live a modest life, not interested in business and avoiding involvement in business matters when possible."
"Nannan..."
"She's the most suitable for me."
"Whatever you choose." Fang Zheng shook his head, not persuading further:
"If you don't engage in business or gamble, with your current situation you won't face hardship, life is a lifetime, as long as you're happy."
"That's true!" Dapeng nodded emphatically:
"Got any booze? Let's have a drink!"
Fang Zheng opened the car's fridge and took out two bottles of chilled beer.
"Chug it!"
"Of course."

A few days later.
Still in the business car.
Wen Lei, dressed as a professional businesswoman, handed over a stack of documents, saying:
"I'm still holding the same opinion, the textile industry has developed into a saturated market, those who aren't familiar with it barging in will only get hurt."
"Five hundred workers..."
"The current Yunzhi Textile Factory is a gold-devouring beast."
Five hundred employees, apart from the security guards and those responsible for simple tasks whose salaries are slightly lower, everyone else earns at least four or five thousand.
The weavers,
especially those with experience, are now very hard to recruit at low wages.
Moreover, the factory provides meals and accommodation, pays full social insurance, and contributes to the housing fund; on average each person's monthly expense is already over ten thousand.
One month,
minimum seven million!
Add in other miscellaneous expenses, a textile factory with five hundred employees has an annual net expenditure of at least one hundred million.
To make money,
net income must exceed one hundred million.
But currently, Yunzhi's income doesn't cover expenses, money needs to be put into it every month, that's why it's called a gold-devouring beast.
"By hiring five hundred people, there are five hundred families who won't be without income, and it provides a small help to Qu City's stability."
Fang Zheng spoke:
"This is how society operates; if everyone only cares for themselves, many will suffer."
"The company providing jobs is a reflection of social responsibility; Mr. Zhao said this, so we can't ignore it."
