Ye Lingchen looked at Lu Tianxiong in surprise and pondered for a moment.
He was very tempted.
The participating tycoons were definitely the best in the country. A conservative estimate would be that there would be at least 50 groups. If each group's chips were 10 million, that would be 500 million!
If he participated and won all 500 million, it would belong to him and he would instantly become a billionaire!
As a prodigy, Ye Lingchen regarded money as dirt. It was only natural that he would not care about a mere 500 million.
However … it was better than nothing.
Most of the time, money represented strength. With more money, he would have more power to protect himself.
The main reason Ye Lingchen wanted to become stronger as soon as possible was because of fear!
He was a man with a system and he was still in the early stages of development. If he was exposed, he would definitely become the world's enemy. How could he not be afraid?
He could only protect the system if he was strong enough!
"Alright, I agree." Ye Lingchen nodded, then emphasized, "Remember your promise. The money I win will belong to me."
He was not doing it for the 500 million. He was just someone who liked to keep his word …
There was still more than a month before the agreed time. Ye Lingchen told them to contact him when the time came, then brought Zhang Yunxi to his new house.
The location of the king of buildings was needless to say. They walked along the tree-lined path, crossed two red wooden bridges, and a red pointed villa appeared in front of them.
Unlike other villas, this one occupied a grassy field. The yard and garden were huge, just like a painting.
Small bridges, flowing water, and people!
Entering the villa, they saw that it was decorated in a modern Chinese style. The furniture was all made of expensive mahogany material. It had a constant temperature and humidity throughout the year. It was definitely the most suitable environment for living.
The hall on the first floor was hollow and was at least five meters high. A huge golden chandelier hung in the center of the hall. It was magnificent. The stairs were made of wooden spirals, and there was an elevator in the middle.
High-end, grand, and classy!
Ye Lingchen smiled in satisfaction. He could move in right away. That would save him a lot of trouble.
If it were any other villa, the renovation would not only be a hassle, but it would also take at least a year before he could move in. It was really inconvenient.
Zhang Yunxi stood at the door, stunned by the luxurious atmosphere. She did not even have the courage to enter.
In her heart, only a palace in a fairy tale could compare to this place.
Only after mustering up her courage did she dare to step in.
"Ling Chen, you're amazing." Zhang Yunxi looked around the house and could not help but exclaim.
That house was the dream of countless people, yet Ye Lingchen bought it so casually.
"Yunxi, this will be my home from now on. You don't have to be so reserved here," Ye Lingchen said with a smile.
Zhang Yunxi nodded. Right at this moment, her phone vibrated. Her bank card had actually been transferred 1.26 million!
It only took him a moment to understand. That was the commission from Ye Lingchen's suite.
How could the Lu Group dare to hold back Zhang Yunxi's money? They transferred the money over almost immediately.
"Ling Chen, this is the money for your house, I'll transfer it to you."
"Since it's a commission, it's what you deserve. Just keep it."
"No! Ling Chen, are you pitying me? Do you think that I'm useless and get bullied everywhere? "Zhang Yunxi bit her lips, tears welled up in her eyes as she said in distress.
She was determined to transfer the money to Ye Lingchen.
'What a proud woman.'
Ye Lingchen felt helpless. Zhang Yunxi was too headstrong. She had been fighting to be number one since she started school. Unfortunately, God seemed to like to play a joke on her. At the most crucial moment, she failed to study.
Moreover, Zhang Yunxi was very beautiful. Most of the time, beauty was the original sin. It was fine if one was capable, but those without would only be bullied by others.
With Zhang Yunxi's looks, it was easy for her to rise to the top. On the other hand, it was harder than ascending to the heavens!
Zhang Yunxi was obviously not someone who gave in easily. Therefore, she was the latter.
From the encounter at the real estate sales department, it could be seen that no matter where she went, she would be targeted by people.
"Yunxi, what are you planning to do next?" Ye Lingchen suddenly asked.
"I want to see if there are any other companies hiring." Zhang Yunxi sighed.
She only had a high school diploma. What kind of job could she find in Capital City?
"How about this." Ye Lingchen smiled and had a plan in mind. "I'll leave this 1.26 million with you. Additionally, I'll add another 3.24 million. That's a total of 4.5 million to invest in a store. Help me manage it."
"Lingchen, you don't have to do this. I can do it on my own."
"Yunxi, I'm not helping you. I really want to open a store. Do you think I'll be able to work for someone after I graduate?" Ye Lingchen continued, "That's why I'm thinking of opening a store now. Wouldn't it be better to be the boss after I graduate?"
Zhang Yunxi was silent. What Ye Lingchen said made sense.
"Yunxi, I'm still a student. My time is limited. You're the only friend I can trust in Capital City. You must help me!" Ye Lingchen struck while the iron was hot. "I'm only investing money. You'll have to put in the effort. You'll be the only one managing it. We'll split the profits 50-50!"
When Zhang Yunxi heard that she was the only friend Ye Lingchen could trust, she was secretly delighted. "50-50 is too much. I'm just an employee. You can just give me my salary."
"That won't do! I'm just a hands-off boss. You'll have to suffer a lot. How about 40-60? I'll take more. Don't decline anymore. Otherwise, I'll find someone else! " Ye Lingchen paused for a moment, then said pitifully, "I hope someone won't scam my money and run away …"
"How can I trust a stranger?!" Zhang Yunxi was a little anxious. She gritted her teeth. "Alright, I promise you."
"That's a deal!" Ye Lingchen laughed. "I'll transfer the money to you right away. I'll leave the selection of the store and hiring to you!"
"But … what kind of store are we opening?" Zhang Yunxi frowned.
"I've thought about it for a long time. We'll open a cosmetic store!" Ye Lingchen blurted out. "We even have a name. We'll call it Y Cosmetics! I'm planning to build the world's number one cosmetic brand! "
Y Cosmetics?
What kind of name was that?
It did not sound like a name that could become the world's number one brand!
Zhang Yunxi was a little confused. "Isn't this name a little too hasty?"
"It's not hasty at all. It's decided then." Ye Lingchen nodded firmly.
"But … I don't know anything about makeup," Zhang Yunxi said embarrassedly with a blush on her face.
She had limited resources. Apart from applying some cream, she had never come into contact with other cosmetics, let alone helping others with makeup.
"That's fine. You're a girl. You're born with a talent for makeup. Moreover, even if you don't know how, I do! I'll teach you. "Ye Lingchen thumped his chest.
"You … you know how?!"
Zhang Yunxi stared at Ye Lingchen in a daze.
