From Wage Slave to Tycoon novel Chapter 126

Chapter 126: Chapter 103: Everything Is Ready, Except for the East Wind

-----------------

Night fell.

"Is the Boss still sleeping?" Zong Xinyao asked, looking at Jiang Hui.

"Yes, but he should be up soon. It’s already dark," Jiang Hui said, glancing at Su Chen’s room.

"Why did the Boss suddenly come all the way to Xilinhot? And he’s planning to set up a livestock company? Steward Jiang, could you give me a heads-up? I’d like to know what’s going on."

Zong Xinyao had met Jiang Hui on a previous trip to the Imperial Capital for a Byte Company financing round. She’d been sharp enough to realize he was Su Chen’s steward, so they exchanged contact information. It was a convenient way to reach Su Chen if any difficult problems came up.

Jiang Hui pondered for a moment before replying, "To be honest, I’m not entirely sure why Mr. Su Chen chose to invest in Xilinhot. It might be so he can have easy access to Wuzhumuqin mutton in the future!"

"Huh? For easy access... to mutton?" Zong Xinyao’s expression turned a little strange. ’That can’t be right, can it?’

’Traveling hundreds of kilometers and setting up a livestock company just to eat good mutton? That’s too... impulsive!’

Before her imagination could run any further, a familiar voice sounded out. "Huh? Xinyao, what are you doing here?"

Zong Xinyao and Jiang Hui looked toward the voice and saw Su Chen emerging from his room, rubbing his head.

"Boss!" "Sir!" The two of them quickly stood up from the sofa.

"YAAAWN~"

Su Chen yawned, sat down on the sofa, and gestured for them to sit as well.

Zong Xinyao took a seat, while Jiang Hui turned and left the room.

"Why did Pei Rang send you? Isn’t this a bit of overkill?" Su Chen said, leaning back on the sofa. He propped his head up with his right hand, gently massaging his temple with his thumb.

"Anything that requires a personal call from the Boss can’t possibly be a small matter," Zong Xinyao said with a smile.

"I actually had to fight for this assignment. President Pei was originally going to send Li Li, but with all the new employees at the company recently, she couldn’t get away."

Ever since the last Byte Company financing round, she knew her boss was no simple man. His mind was incredibly complex. For him to come all this way, there had to be some secret behind it.

There was no way Zong Xinyao would believe he did it all just for a bite to eat.

"Li Li wanted to come? Has she been bad-mouthing me at the office?" A smile played on Su Chen’s lips.

Li Li was Secretary Li. Su Chen had basically conscripted her in the beginning, and she’d handled a ton of work in the early days. Later, he entrusted her with even greater responsibilities, keeping her so busy her feet barely touched the ground.

During a casual chat with her, Pei Rang had mentioned Li Li, saying she had privately complained to him about how a mere secretary like her had been turned into a jack-of-all-trades.
