Chapter 73 - Historic Turning of a Win as a Loss! (1/2)

Pei Qian took a look around the shop again and came across where the earphones were at.

“Ma Yang, I remember that your earphones were only twenty-plus yuan from a roadside stall.” Pei Qian looked at Ma Yang.

“Tsk… Boss Pei, although it’s something from a roadside stall, it is pretty useful.” Ma Yang immediately said as he did not reveal his relationship with Pei Qian in front of others.

“How could that be good enough? Something from a roadside stall is just that; it cannot be good enough. This is the newest model, it costs 2999; take it. It’s below ten thousand, and it is good enough.”

Pei Qian immediately pushed the earphones to Ma Yang.

Ma Yang was stunned and said, “Err, Boss Pei, but my current job does not have anything to do with earphones…”

Ma Yang was now doing miscellaneous tasks in the designs team. Basically, he had to fill in forms occasionally, use editing software, or to raise some requests for resources. His work indeed had not much relation with earphones.

Pei Qian thought about it and said, “It is in preparation for your work next time. You might need to communicate more with subcontractors and raise requests regarding music and sound effects. Without a good pair of earphones—when they provide the music and sound effects, what if you couldn’t even tell if they were of good quality or not?”

Ma Yang scratched his head, “However, aren’t the earphones that come with the company computers good enough already?”

Pei Qian’s face grew dark. “Since it’s the company’s earphones, could you bring them home? If there are any emergencies after office hours that require you to contact subcontractors, what then?”

Ma Yang was speechless.

It seemed as if… Pei Qian’s words made sense…

Ma Yang smiled widely as he took over the earphones and ran to pay for it.

Just like Xiao Lu, he actually also wanted to buy a pair. However, he couldn’t bear to spend his own money. He also felt a little bad claiming this under extra expenses.

However, since Pei Qian had said so, they didn’t have any reservations at all.

He held onto the earphones; they were gorgeous.

Most importantly, he had not spent a single cent of his own money. The company was paying for this. Where else could he find such a good deal?

Soon, Xiao Lu and Ma Yang had both completed their payments.

Xiao Lu immediately started to use the earphones; he loved it extremely much.

A few of them continued to shop in the mall. As Pei Qian shopped, he kept an eye on his employees to make sure that they were spending as they pleased!

He forced Huang Sibo to buy a new tablet computer under the pretext of ‘raising productivity’. He also compelled the two female receptionists to buy a few beautiful dresses, claiming that they would ‘elevate the company’s image’.

Some other things were included in this spending spree as well. As long as he saw that his employees expressed even an inkling of desire, he would immediately come up with a reason and order the purchase!

Some special cases where Pei Qian really couldn’t find a justification—for example, a male employee wanted to buy a handbag for his girlfriend. He made them change an item just so he could think of something to say.

After walking one round in the mall, Pei Qian was quite pleased.

En, everyone had more or less spent their money!

After doing a check, five hundred and thirty thousand yuan in the System Funds had been spent today after Pei Qian’s coercion and manipulation—through giving out salaries, bonuses, and shopping cards. The System Funds originally had one million one hundred thousand yuan in it.

Five hundred and seventy thousand yuan were left.

“En, I can only rely on myself for the rest…”

Pei Qian knew that his employees had already tried their best. As for the last seventy thousand, he had to expend them personally.

After spending this seventy thousand, every extra one cent spent could be converted into personal wealth at a one-is-to-one rate!

This was the last leg of this long expedition; he needed to finish this in one fell swoop!

Pei Qian first came to a high-class suit boutique store and purposely avoided Jesse who had come here to buy something just now.

However, he soon left quietly.

The system had rejected the purchase. Pei Qian had probably bought too many suits the previous time, and the system thought that he did not have the ability to continue spending.

After that, Pei Qian went to a Rolex shop, wanting to buy a watch.
