My Daily Basic Stipend Is 10 Million

Chapter 220: Chapter 175: It’s All Chen Xiao’s Business (Part 2)

Cheng Yuan immediately fell silent.

"President Cheng, I have two conditions. First, regarding the valuation—I can’t determine right now how much equity 200 million will get us. We’ll have to look into that later!"

Cheng Yuan replied instantly, "That’s no problem. I’m sure we can communicate well and come to an agreement!"

After all, you don’t get a fixed price when you’re buying vegetables at the market. It’s perfectly normal to start with one price and then haggle.

Gao Yue and Li Xiao exchanged a look. On one hand, they were marveling at Miss Xu’s commanding presence. She had the unmistakable air of a business empress; some people are just born with that kind of nobility!

Every gesture exuded grace and elegance.

On the other hand, there was a knowing smile in their eyes. It was obvious they had guessed what Xu Wu’s second condition would be.

And just as they expected, they heard Xu Wu continue, "Additionally, all business related to external R&D collaborations for this project will be given to Chen Xiao of Dr. Feng’s Robot!"

’Look at the level she’s on, openly using her position for personal gain without a shred of shame. Who else could do that without batting an eye!’

Cheng Yuan immediately said, "That’s no problem either, President Xu. We’ll do everything exactly as you’ve instructed!"

He wasn’t surprised at all. It seemed he had done his homework beforehand. There was now an unwritten rule, widely known in the industry, for anyone seeking business from Junxiao Capital.

Chen Xiao had recently been getting a lot of strange invitations over the phone, all from people he didn’t know.

Some invited him to dinner, some to karaoke, and one even fucking invited him for a foot massage. That was really something else!

He later found out that these were all companies hoping to get funding from Junxiao Capital, trying to build a relationship with him in advance.

The only one in the room who didn’t understand was Liu Lei. But he knew this Chen Xiao must have a deep relationship with his goddess, and his heart immediately ached with a dull pain.

’So the flying bird was part of a pair of lovebirds, while the rotten fish was about to become a dead fish...’

Xu Wu’s time was precious. Once the business was discussed and everyone had more or less finished their meal, the gathering came to an end.

Cheng Yuan offered to see her off, but Xu Wu politely declined. She cordially invited him to visit her on the 28th floor of Yunfeng Building in Jiangzhou when he had time.

Cheng Yuan said excitedly, "I’ll definitely pay a visit soon!"

He had tried to schedule a meeting several times before but couldn’t even get an appointment. It was only when he learned that President Xu was coming to Qingyun County that he followed her here all the way from Jiangzhou.

Now that President Xu had personally invited him, he felt incredibly honored. A man who could normally handle a full pound of liquor without issue now felt like he was on cloud nine after less than half a pound.

Xu Wu then called out to Liu Lei, "Old classmate, you need to keep up the hard work!"

She didn’t say anything more, but Liu Lei already understood her meaning. Her comment that morning about acquiring Qingyun Wansheng Square must have been a firm decision.

He felt a little excited. Back in school, Xu Wu had never once spoken to him.

He knew that Xu Wu had specifically addressed him today simply because they were old classmates. But there was another layer to it—perhaps in the future, he could serve as a piece she placed on the board in Qingyun?

’A chess piece? Was I even worthy?’

Liu Lei, who had always considered himself young and promising, didn’t know why he now felt so overwhelmingly flattered at the mere thought of being one of her pawns—to the point where he even felt he wasn’t worthy.

’It was probably because she was just too dazzling right now!’

In the Buick minivan, it was still Gao Yue and Li Xiao accompanying her. Liu Lei had returned to the square after the meal; he certainly wasn’t going to get a chance to escort them.

When they arrived at Jindi Mansion, Gao Yue began introducing the residential complex’s location, how convenient the transportation was, and the accessibility of the surrounding amenities.

There was a massive supermarket right at the entrance, and the best hospital in Qingyun County, the First People’s Hospital, was within a kilometer, among other things.

Xu Wu was also quite satisfied with the complex’s environment.

"This is President Ding’s development, isn’t it?"

Jindi Mansion. Based on the name, it had to be Ding Yong’s project. That, combined with Gao Yue’s strong recommendation, made it an easy guess for Xu Wu.

Gao Yue nodded. "Yes. This is considered the most high-end residential project in Qingyun County. The environment is excellent, they have their own property management, and the security is very reliable. I thought that if your parents lived here, you’d have more peace of mind."

"Thank you!" Xu Wu said, her voice filled with sincerity.

Those two words made all of Gao Yue and Li Xiao’s running around for the past two days feel worthwhile.

The two of them, riding on Xu Wu’s coattails, had already become big shots in their respective circles. As Xu Wu continued her rapid ascent, who knew how far they might go?

’Their future success depended entirely on Xu Wu!’

The car drove into the villa district and stopped in front of one of the houses.

Xu Wu looked at Gao Yue, puzzled.

Gao Yue smiled and said, "We’re here. This is it!"

Xu Wu didn’t get up. Instead, she said, "Ah Yue, a budget of one million can’t buy a villa."

Gao Yue suddenly grew a little nervous and replied cautiously, "President Ding heard you were looking to buy a home for your parents, and he insisted on showing a token of his goodwill!"

"Absolutely not!" Xu Wu refused instantly, without a hint of hesitation.

’For one thing, she would definitely be able to afford a villa later on once she earned more money; there was no need to owe anyone a favor.’

’Furthermore, she was unwilling to be indebted to people. She had accepted the 11 million loan from Chen Xiao because she was confident she could build Junxiao Group into a powerhouse and repay it with her own income. Otherwise, she never would have taken it!’

Seeing the situation turn awkward, Li Xiao tried to smooth things over. "Well, since we’re already here, why don’t we get out and take a look while we talk? If you end up liking it, you could always get a mortgage!"

Only then did Xu Wu get out of the car. Li Xiao had a point. If this house was truly suitable for her parents, she could certainly afford the mortgage payments.

The villa was fully furnished and move-in ready. It was a three-story house built in a traditional Chinese architectural style.

The villa came with a small yard. Xu Wu stared at it for a long time. ’My parents would definitely love this,’ she thought. ’They’ve been farmers their whole lives; they probably wouldn’t be able to sit still after moving to the city.’

’They wouldn’t be happy just planting a few flowers. They would definitely turn this into a vegetable garden!’

The thought of that image made her want to smile.

She had to admit, she was really starting to like the place Gao Yue had picked out.
