Chapter 124: Cultivating Confidants, Increasing Employee Loyalty
Lin Feng smiled and didn’t argue.
He left the two girls to themselves and went into one of the rooms.
Sitting at the desk, Lin Feng closed his eyes and thought for a moment.
Right now, he had 170 million in capital.
That was a huge amount of operational capital.
The stock market had already opened for the day.
Lin Feng felt the time was right.
The one-month stock market trend prediction card the system had given him...
...it was now time to use it.
Lin Feng calculated the timing.
’I’ll start the day after tomorrow. That way, it’ll run until the middle of next month.’
After working out his plan,
he sent a message to Yang Qiniang.
He told him he would be coming to the company tomorrow morning for a short meeting.
He also specified that all the company’s core members had to be present.
Yang Qiniang probably wouldn’t see this message until he sobered up.
As for Lin Feng, all he had to do was show up at the investment company on time tomorrow morning.
...
「Early the next morning.」
Yang Qiniang clutched his splitting head.
"This is killing me."
"This hangover feels awful!"
Yang Qiniang rubbed his temples.
Yang Qiniang came downstairs and saw his sister, Yang Qingqing, on the first floor.
"How did I get home yesterday?"
"I don’t remember a thing."
Yang Qingqing, who was eating breakfast, rolled her eyes at her brother. "Serves you right for drinking so much and coming home so late!"
"You men are all the same, you just love to drink."
"Is alcohol really that good?"
Although Yang Qingqing was complaining,
she turned around and ladled out a bowl of hangover soup for Yang Qiniang.
"The housekeeper made it specially for you when she was cooking. She knew you’d feel terrible when you woke up!"
"Brother Feng was the one who brought you home last night."
"Tell me, you two went out together, so how come he was perfectly sober?"
Yang Qingqing glared at her brother.
Knowing he was in the wrong, Yang Qiniang could only clutch his head and give a wry smile.
But Yang Qingqing had a sharp tongue and a soft heart.
In the end, she still served him breakfast and poured him hot water.
Perhaps this was just how siblings were.
They always bickered at first,
but their bond was strong.
As Yang Qiniang started to eat, Yang Qingqing suddenly remembered something:
"Oh, right."
"I glanced at your phone’s lock screen earlier. It looks like Brother Feng sent you a message, you should check it!"
Hearing this, Yang Qiniang immediately put down what he was holding and picked up his phone.
Sure enough, he saw the message from Lin Feng about the meeting today.
He glanced at the time. It was just after seven in the morning.
There was still time.
Yang Qiniang grabbed two slices of bread and had the driver take him to the company.
At the same time, he sent a group WeChat message to the core members, informing them of the time and place.
Not everyone was qualified to receive this message.
After all, it was only sent to the current core management of the investment company.
Lin Feng had specifically stated that the core personnel had to attend.
So Yang Qiniang didn’t dare to delay.
WeChat was the fastest way to contact them.
Yang Qiniang had a vague understanding of what Lin Feng’s big move was this time.
It was very likely because he had gathered enough capital.
After all, just from one night of drinking yesterday, thirty million in funds had been secured.
The amount of capital Lin Feng had raised recently had reached a terrifying figure.
With this much money, Lin Feng was bound to make a move soon.
The group WeChat message Yang Qiniang sent out early in the morning received responses in less than an hour.
Lately, everyone’s work hours hadn’t been fixed.
After all, the company was still in its initial startup phase.
Working a regular nine-to-five was impossible.
A lot of things required working overtime to get done.
When Yang Qiniang arrived at the company, he went straight to a conference room without a word.
He then instructed his assistant, who had arrived early:
"Today, the real boss of our company is coming."
"When Mr. Lin arrives, be sharp during the meeting!"
After arranging the agenda for the meeting, Yang Qiniang hadn’t been sitting in the conference room for long
when he got a call from Lin Feng.
Yang Qiniang stood up immediately.
He went downstairs.
He looked up and saw a Ferrari parked in a spot by the entrance.
Yang Qiniang was initially wondering which company in the office building could possibly own such a car.
But then he looked up and saw Lin Feng getting out of the Ferrari.
"Whoa, look at you."
"It’s only been a few days, and you bought another car?"
Yang Qiniang walked up and circled the Ferrari curiously.
All men love luxury cars.
Yang Qiniang could tell at a glance that this was a top-of-the-line Ferrari.
Its price tag was over ten million.
Lin Feng was really something else!
Although Yang Qiniang could also afford one,
seeing Lin Feng’s Ferrari still made his hands itch.
"How about you let me take it for a spin later?"
Yang Qiniang followed Lin Feng into the office building.
Lin Feng smiled and nodded. It was no big deal.
Since Yang Qiniang was interested, he’d let him borrow it for fun later.
"Are the people who need to be notified all informed?"
Lin Feng asked Yang Qiniang in the elevator.
"Don’t worry."
"I made sure everyone was notified first thing this morning."
"They’ve probably all arrived by now. Let’s head to the conference room!"
Lin Feng smiled and nodded.
Actually, Lin Feng had another reason for insisting on holding this meeting at the company.
After all, he had received a reward from the system earlier.
It could forcibly increase the loyalty of his core employees.
Lin Feng planned to turn these people into his trusted confidants before he started mobilizing the funds.
After all, these people had been poached from Yang Tianming.
And Yang Tianming had only sent these talented individuals over to help pave the way for his son.
So, in reality, the boss these people probably recognized most in their hearts was still Yang Tianming.
If these core members still held their old boss in their hearts, that would be a major problem.
Regardless of whether Yang Tianming had ever thought about prying into the investment company’s core secrets,
for Lin Feng, it was a hidden danger.
After all, no one can truly fathom the human heart.
Therefore, Lin Feng’s bottom line was that these core personnel had to be loyal to him.
As Lin Feng and Yang Qiniang walked toward the office,
Yang Qiniang received a message on his phone.
"They’re all in the conference room now."
Yang Qiniang said, stifling a yawn.
Lin Feng chuckled and teased him:
"You can’t handle it, can you? You rested all night and still haven’t recovered!"
Yang Qiniang gave a wry smile. "You weren’t the one they were taking turns forcing drinks on!"
Lin Feng shrugged.
As they walked toward the conference room, Lin Feng inadvertently spotted a familiar face.
