Chapter 414 - 193: Being a Leader Really Feels Great! (2)
"Aunt Jiang Bing, I toast to you as well. Please take care of me in the future."
After toasting Jiang Tao, Jiang Jiaqi raised her glass to Jiang Bing, trying to get closer.
"Xiao Qi, you’re doing a great job. Keep it up in the company, and your Uncle Tao won’t treat you poorly."
Jiang Bing’s attitude towards Jiang Jiaqi was noticeably better than towards Xu Sha.
"Thank you, Aunt Jiang Bing! Uncle Tao, I’ll definitely work hard and not let you down!"
Jiang Jiaqi nodded happily, feeling very grateful for Jiang Tao’s recognition of her abilities.
Jiang Tao truly had nothing to complain about her.
He gave her a high salary and entrusted her with such an important task as procurement, giving her full trust and great authority.
Jiang Jiaqi felt Jiang Tao was the "Bo Le" of her life.
She was willing to treat her current job as a long-term, even lifelong, career.
Afterward, Shan Yang and Xu Wencheng also toasted Jiang Tao and Jiang Bing individually.
The first gathering of Jiang Entertainment Company ended in a joyful atmosphere.
After the meal, without needing Jiang Tao’s instructions, Jiang Bing went downstairs to settle the bill.
The expenses of this gathering could be covered by Jiang’s Food Factory’s account.
The meal cost over 3,000 yuan, not extremely extravagant, but quite sumptuous.
After leaving, they all got into Jiang Tao’s G-Class.
Jiang Tao drove them back to the villa area to tour the future new company.
"Wow! Brother-in-law, will we be working here at the villa in the future?"
Xu Sha was immediately enamored with the luxurious decoration style inside the villa.
She couldn’t wait to take out her phone and snap photos to post on social media!
Making those classmates immensely envious!
Most of Xu Sha’s classmates had joined some obscure small companies, becoming low-level employees.
During their internship, having their own office was out of the question; having an independent workspace was decent enough.
Working in such a high-end place like a villa was definitely something to boast about!
Young people all like to show off a bit!
"Yes, this will be our company’s office location from now on."
Jiang Tao nodded with a smile, also very satisfied with the new company.
Xu Wencheng surveyed the villa with his eyes.
Although he didn’t say anything, he also liked the new office very much in his heart.
His office at the original workplace was in a building that was twenty to thirty years old.
Dark and old, the office was less than twenty square meters with five colleagues cramped together.
Compared to the previous office environment, the new company was like heaven!
Jiang Bing also loved the new company here!
It was much more upscale than the food factory over there!
"Second Brother, the rent here isn’t cheap, right?"
Jiang Bing looked at the luxurious décor of the villa, knowing the rent wouldn’t be cheap.
Jiang Tao honestly replied, "It’s okay! A little over 300,000 a year."
Jiang Bing exclaimed, "That’s something! A year’s rent here could be a down payment on a house back home!"
"..."
Shan Yang, listening to Jiang Tao saying "a little over 300,000 a year," was again speechless.
An old classmate was truly doing well now!
The new company’s rent alone was over 300,000 a year.
Plus, there were those office desks, computers, printers, and a variety of other office supplies.
The company hadn’t even started yet, and fifty to sixty thousand had already been spent!
And if you add in employee salaries.
The company might need a hundred or eighty thousand a year to break even.
"With you all, the capable team, this rent is nothing; it’ll be earned back in no time."
Jiang Tao laughed easily; he was optimistic about the new company’s prospects.
He had the title of "Bo Le" to discover and nurture talent.
And the "Monopoly Dice," a wealth hack at the level of a cheat to increase income.
If he still lost money with these, he might as well go back home to raise pigs.
After a few casual chats, Jiang Tao led everyone to tour the villa again and arranged offices for Jiang Bing and the others.
In the afternoon, a batch of office equipment purchased by Jiang Jiaqi arrived.
Everyone directed the movers to arrange various desks, chairs, and equipment.
An afternoon flew by in a flurry of activity.
In the evening, Jiang Tao treated everyone to a barbecue.
After eating and drinking their fill, everyone went their separate ways home.
Jiang Tao returned home after 9 p.m.
His parents had just returned from dancing.
Xu Li had also picked up Jiang Xue from Jiang Yi.
The family took turns washing up.
While waiting in the living room, Jiang Tao checked the day’s earnings with a thought.
[Your earnings today are 42,288.22 yuan. Would you like to use Monopoly Dice to double them?]
"Over 40,000 today, better than yesterday."
Jiang Tao glanced at the 2.3 million+ fund he held on his phone.
Yesterday, it showed a small loss of over 3,000, but today, he earned over 13,000 in a day.
Although funds are relatively stable financial products, the fluctuations can be significant.
With a thought, a blue screen appeared in front of Jiang Tao in the air.
The screen showed several item lists he had spent money to open.
Jiang Tao reached out and took the Monopoly Dice from one of the item lists.
According to the system introduction, the numbers rolled on this Monopoly Dice are entirely random, untouched by any technique.
Jiang Tao’s idea of practicing to always roll a six was doomed.
Da-Da-Da...
Jiang Tao gently tossed the dice onto the table, and it started rolling and spinning at high speed.
After about five seconds, the rolling dice finally stopped, showing a "1" on top.
[Congratulations on rolling a 1, earning a 1x multiplier on today’s earnings!]
"..."
Seeing he rolled the smallest point, Jiang Tao’s face darkened.
Today’s luck doesn’t seem great!
What’s there to congratulate?
Buzz~
Jiang Tao felt his phone vibrate in his pocket.
He took it out and saw a credit notification from ICBC.
[Your savings card ending in XX89 received a transfer of 42,288.22 yuan from XX account. Your current balance is 1,386,755.88 yuan!]
"A roll of 1 or 6 can make a difference of over 200,000 in daily earnings; that’s exciting as hell."
Though somewhat speechless, Jiang Tao quickly accepted the harsh reality.
You got over 40,000 for free in one day; anyone else would be ecstatic.
One should always find joy in contentment.
After doubling today’s earnings, Jiang Tao put the Monopoly Dice back into the system’s warehouse.
"Honey~ We’re done bathing. You go ahead."
Jiang Tao looked up and saw Xu Li and Jiang Xue, wearing silk pajamas and still wet from the shower, exit the bathroom.
After bathing, Xu Li’s delicate face was flushed, looking quite alluring.
"Alright."
Jiang Tao nodded with a smile, picked up a towel, and headed for the bathroom.
Brushing his teeth, washing his face, showering, the whole routine took just about ten minutes.
After getting cleaned up, Jiang Tao returned to the bedroom’s large bed, browsing his phone while waiting for Xu Li.
After waiting for about half an hour, Xu Li tiptoed in and clicked the door shut.
"Honey, have you been waiting long?"
Xu Li looked at Jiang Tao lying on the bed with a charming smile, posing seductively with one hand on the door frame.
Her sweet ’honey’ sent shivers through Jiang Tao, like an electric current coursing through him.
Even though they had been married for over seven years, their passion wasn’t any less than back then.
Jiang Tao’s body tensed, and with a swift move, he leapt from the bed to the floor.
With long strides, he reached the door in a few steps and lifted Xu Li off the ground in a princess carry.
With Jiang Tao’s current constitution of 88 points, lifting the 100-pound Xu Li felt as light as holding a child.
Starting just past 11 p.m. and ending after 12, Jiang Tao ultimately came out on top.
After murmuring sweet nothings to each other, the tired and sleepy Xu Li soon fell asleep.
Only then did Jiang Tao open the intelligence system panel to check the newly refreshed intel of the day.
