“Pfft!”

Zhang Yuan almost spurted out the tea in his mouth.

Fifty of that?

Boss Pei, that made you in the wrong.

You should have said earlier that you wanted fifty computers!

I wanted to fork out a thousand yuan to befriend you. If you wanted fifty computers, won’t that mean that I have to fork out fifty thousand yuan?

I am just a permanent singer at a bar. How do I find that fifty thousand yuan…?

Zhang Yuan was dumbfounded.

“No. Boss Pei. How many computers do you need exactly…? I felt a little guilty for accepting the three thousand yuan remuneration and thus decided to fork out a thousand yuan to buy the components and to befriend you in the process. If you want fifty computers, we can’t follow this current price…”

Pei Qian was momentarily stunned and thought that this fellow was pretty sincere! “That’s not right. You deserve the 3000 yuan remuneration. Why would you want to give it back to me? It doesn’t make sense!

“Does that mean that this set of configurations cost twenty-six thousand yuan?” Pei Qian asked.

Zhang Yuan nodded his head and felt slightly abashed. He wanted to conceal it in front of Boss Pei to befriend him. In the end, he was thoroughly exposed!

Look at how this matter turned out.

However, Zhang Yuan was a little curious as to why Boss Pei needed so many computers. Did he want to replace all the computers in the office?

It didn’t look like it.

Pei Qian thought for a while and said, “How about this? Each computer costs twenty-six thousand yuan. I can’t let you do all this work for nothing. Other than the three thousand yuan remuneration, I will give you two hundred dollars for every computer that you assembled!”

Zhang Yuan wanted to say something, but Pei Qian lifted his hand and cut him off.

“There is no need to decline it. This has been decided.

“Let’s talk about something else.”

Zhang Yuan nodded his head and said, “Sure. Umm… Boss Pei, can I ask something irrelevant? Why would you need so many computers? Are you going to…?”

“Oh. I’m preparing to open an internet cafe. Ma Yang, the person who led you here, is the manager in charge of the internet cafe’s daily operations. If you meet our conditions, will you be willing to work in Jingzhou City?” Pei Qian asked.

Zhang Yuan’s eyes bulged wide.

So that was the case. The big boss wanted to invest in an internet cafe! Given how rich the big boss is, its employee welfare must be good!

Moreover, was the big boss inviting me to work there?

If the big boss was the one who proposed that personally, it was likely that my job would not be an ordinary internet cafe employee. I should probably take on a small managerial position at the very least!

Look at how extravagantly he spent money…

The internet cafe’s employee welfare must be pretty good!

Zhang Yuan had just calmed himself down but became unsettled again after hearing that.

“If I meet the conditions, of course, I will be willing to do so!”

Pei Qian nodded and asked, “Then, can you talk about your previous work experiences?”

Tss…!

Zhang Yuan took in a deep breath. He felt that this job opportunity was going away.

Boss Pei probably wanted to recruit me because of my title as the forum manager in the GPU Forum and my knowledge about computers and their hardware.

If I told him honestly that I am currently working as a permanent bar singer and part-time bartender…

Would Boss Pei still want me?

What should I do? Lie?

No way. Boss Pei was extremely knowledgeable and well-versed in many things. He would definitely see through my lie.

Zhang Yuan struggled internally. In the end, he finally decided to tell the truth. “Boss Pei, I am currently a permanent singer at a bar and work as a part-time bartender. I am also a little forum manager at the GPU Forum…”

The more Zhang Yuan said, the more uneasy he was.

He could almost envision Boss Pei’s disappointment. He did not expect that the eyes of Boss Pei, who was sitting opposite him, would lit!

“Great. You’re so multi-talented! That means I can consider having a minibar in the internet cafe for you to mix wine. I will double your salary for that!

“No. You are also a permanent singer. I will triple your salary!”

Pei Qian was extremely elated.
