Chapter 33 (1/2)

The Cayenne was parked at the south entrance of the school.

Pei Qian was prepared to open the door to get down.

From the driver seat, Xin Hailu reached over with a slim hand and extended an intricate card holder.

“Previously, you asked to rent a two bedroom apartment near the school. This is the access card and key.”

Pei Qian did not retrieve it immediately and was waiting for a response from the system.

‘Yes! No response! That means that this is viable!’

Even though the purchase of clothes and rental of apartment did not seem as though it had anything to do with company operations, it had a relation to the image of the boss.

He couldn’t possibly toss all the clothes he had bought into the dormitory, right?

What if he had to work overtime or go on business trips in the future? What would he do if it was after lights out for the dormitory and he wasn’t allowed to head out?

Therefore, it was perfectly logical for him to rent an apartment.

Besides, the rental wasn’t really expensive. He could even afford suits that cost tens of thousands of yuan so he naturally could afford an apartment rental.

The year was 2009. Given Handong’s property market, even an intricately designed two bedroom apartment in a high-end neighborhood would cost less than 2,000.

This was unlike 10 years into the future where even a single bedroom apartment would run in the ballpark of 7-8,000 in Beijing.

Since the system did not give out any warnings, Pei Qian received over the card holder without any stress.

Flipping through it, he found a key, access card and a small little note that had the address of the apartment written with Xin Hailu’s dainty handwriting.

The neighborhood was not too far from the school’s south entrance – a couple tens of metres.

“Alright, have a good rest then. I’ll send the newly purchased clothes to your address within a couple of days.”

The Cayenne then drove off.

Pei Qian felt extremely pleased.

The fact that the system did not ask for a stop to his behavior meant that he was still rather righteous in his actions!

Scanning the access card, he entered the high-end neighborhood near the school.

When he was still schooling, Pei Qian had only seen this place from the outside and had never entered it before.

Following the written address, Pei Qian found his two bedroom apartment.

Opening the door, he was stunned.

Even though it was two bedrooms, the size was closer to that of a three bedroom as he estimated it to be around 140 square metres.

The furniture were all fully stocked.

Even the bedsheets, blankets and toiletries were prepared thoroughly.

This was truly a place that was ready for immediate living as long as he brought his luggage.

In fact, he could live properly without a luggage even.

The moment Pei Qian sat on the sofa, his butt felt like it never wanted to leave it ever again.

Compared to this place, the dormitory was like a bird cage!

No, even a bird cage was more spacious and cooling than that place!

After he dazed for awhile on the sofa, Pei Qian reinvigorated himself and began to start work.

He must not get lost in the comfort! He had dreams!

He still had money to lose!

Pei Qian summoned the system and checked on the current System Funds.

His income for the first week was 500,000+ and the second week was 700,000+. Even though the third week’s income was yet to be credited, it was estimated to be around 7-800,000.

With that, Pei Qian’s estimate of a monthly gross of 5,000,000 was rather accurate – the actual amount was only slightly less.

He had spent 700,000+ through renting the office space and he would have to fork out an additional 300,000+ per month thereafter as well.

The purchase of office equipment ranged around 800,000+ and he intended to spend that amount right away the moment he received next week’s income.

As for the purchase of clothes, renting of a car and apartment, they added up to around 100,000+. It was so little that Pei Qian was barely bothered.

Even though there was still remaining money in the System Funds, based on the initial consideration of 500,000, he had already lost 200,000+!

This was a surprising result!

But of course, there were still things he had to get busy with.

Now that he had rented an office space, he had to get some new hires. Otherwise, he would definitely be warned by the system for leaving such a huge space empty.

“Time to think about the type of people to hire.”

“I can’t hire those that are too exceptional or it would affect my plan.”

“I can’t hire those that are too lousy either since I have to make a game or I can’t fulfill the requirements of the system.”

“Hmms… this is a technical job. I’ve got to think this through.”

The more Pei Qian thought about it, the more difficult things seemed.

However, for the sake of his present and future happiness, he had to give it a shot even if it was difficult.

After contemplating back and forth, Pei Qian came to a conclusion about one thing at least.

That is, he had to scout for his own employees rather than hire them online!

If he posted a hiring notice online, those people who applied for it would be those who thought that they could fit the criteria.
