President Zhuo, my name is Cheng Mo. I am the security captain of our Hongtai Liquor Industry.
Cheng Mo spoke up, completely unexpected to see his own boss here.
Around noon, right after Cheng Weiyang arrived home, his parents called him to say his sister was back, asking him to come back for a get-together if he had time.
Cheng Mo immediately took a leave of absence and took a bus back to the county town.
He also learned that besides his sister Cheng Weiyang, some friends had accompanied her from Liu City, and they had eaten at home during the day.
Since they had come from so far away, Cheng Mo, as the older brother, naturally had to host them. So he had Cheng Weiyang call Qin Fei to see if they wanted to go out for a meal.
To his surprise, right after they met up, he saw that his boss was actually here too.
What was going on?
Obviously, having just arrived home, he hadn't had time to ask about many things. He only heard that his sister's friends had tagged along, completely unaware of who these people were, nor did he know that his sister was now a general manager worth hundreds of millions.
The security captain of our company?
Hearing this, Zhuo Zhikuan's eyes immediately lit up.
He had been worrying about not having an excuse or opportunity to cling to the coattails of Qin Ning's group.
Wasn't this the perfect opportunity?
Oh, I remember now, you are Cheng Mo! I remember!
He made a very exaggerated reaction, so exaggerated that anyone could tell it was fake at a glance. I noticed you a while ago and always felt you did a great job and were very serious. I was just thinking of giving you a promotion. When we get back to the company, let me change your position. How about Vice General Manager?
In the entire company, apart from me, the General Manager, no one will be higher than you. I will also transfer some of my shares to you then. You absolutely must not refuse; this is what you deserve for your hard and serious work!
He wanted to advance his career too much. Compared to being able to cling to Qin Ning and the others, what did his little bit of shares matter?
Moreover, with Cheng Mo as the Vice General Manager, the company would reap many benefits in the future.
Cheng Weiyang was now a figure worth hundreds of millions. She would have to look out for Hongtai Liquor Industry for her brother's sake, right?
Then wouldn't Young Master Xia also look out for them a bit for Cheng Weiyang's sake?
And then Young Master Qin, for the sake of Young Master Xia, would also lend a hand.
Wouldn't their connections be solidly tied together then?
As long as he could cling to these people's thighs, what did his little shares matter compared to the money the company would make in the future?
Xia Fei and the others on the side were dumbfounded, not expecting this guy to be such a bootlicker, even extending his flattery to Cheng Mo.
President Zhuo, did you drink too much? Stop joking with me...
Cheng Mo frowned, a bit displeased. Although he was just a security captain, he had his dignity. How could he tolerate the other party humiliating him like this?
Unless what he said was true, then he could barely put up with it.
But how could that be possible?
What a joke. He was just a lowly security captain, and President Zhuo was actually talking about directly promoting him to Vice General Manager and giving him shares?
Cheng Mo wouldn't even dare to dream of such a thing.
I did drink a little today, right at your house, but I am wide awake right now. I'm not joking with you. You are definitely going to be this Vice General Manager. I am serious, Zhuo Zhikuan said with a stern face.
This...
Cheng Mo was even more confused, unable to figure out what kind of medicine the other party was selling in his gourd.
It's fine, brother Cheng Mo. Since he is giving it to you, just accept it, Xia Fei said from the side.
His own family was the largest shareholder of Hongtai Liquor Industry. If Zhuo Zhikuan could secure this connection with Cheng Mo, it would naturally be a good thing for their Xia family as well.
Brother, just listen to President Zhuo, Cheng Weiyang thought for a moment and also spoke up.
Hearing this, Cheng Mo looked at his sister, then at Zhuo Zhikuan. President Zhuo, you aren't trying to pursue my sister, are you? Even if you are, there's no need for all this...
Oh my, Vice General Manager Cheng, you can't talk nonsense. I could never reach as high as President Cheng. Your sister is now a CEO worth hundreds of millions, Zhuo Zhikuan hurriedly explained.
President Cheng? My sister? Worth hundreds of millions?
Cheng Mo was completely bewildered.
Cheng Weiyang, on the side, just smiled and then said, Brother, let's go inside first. I'll explain it to you later. We can't let Young Master Qin and the others get tired from standing.
Young Master Qin?
Who was this now?
Cheng Mo was completely baffled, but he quickly reacted, nodded, and then led everyone into the restaurant.
Juxian Pavilion.
This was the most high-end restaurant in the county, decorated quite decently.
Inside a private room, the Cheng siblings brought Qin Ning and the others in.
Along the way, Cheng Weiyang had been whispering in his ear, presumably introducing the identities and backgrounds of Qin Ning and the others.
This gave Cheng Mo quite a fright.
The eldest young master of the richest family in Liu City, the young master of the multi-billion Lanmeng Group, and Zhong Mingyuan from the capital.
The backgrounds of these people were more terrifying than the last.
He originally thought that President Zhuo should be the wealthiest among this group, but now it seemed he was merely playing the role of a small fry.
Especially the siblings Qin Ning and Qin Fei. Cheng Weiyang didn't tell him their exact identities, but Cheng Mo could see that Xia Fei and the others were all extremely respectful towards Qin Ning.
He didn't dare to imagine just how massive their background must be.
Soon, the food and wine were served, and everyone chatted as they ate.
Just then, the door to the private room was suddenly pushed open.
A plump middle-aged man walked in, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.
President Zhuo, I didn't expect it to really be you. Why didn't you let me know in advance when you came to the county?
The plump man looked at Zhuo Zhikuan in his seat and walked over with a smile on his face.
Everyone in the private room frowned, and Zhuo Zhikuan did the same.
He recognized the other party as Shen Zhengtao, the Deputy Secretary of the county.
Previously, in order to attract investment for the county, Shen Zhengtao naturally had quite a bit of contact with Zhuo Zhikuan from the city, as it was the largest liquor company in Bin City after all.
Deputy Director Shen, I have important guests here today. I don't have time to talk to you about investments. You should go back first, and I will visit you next time.
After all, being the second-in-command of the county, Zhuo Zhikuan naturally didn't dare to offend him too much. However, he also didn't want Qin Ning and the others to have their mood ruined because of him, so his tone seemed a bit stern.
Hearing this, Shen Zhengtao's face predictably dropped. He didn't expect Zhuo Zhikuan to respond to him so bluntly and directly chase him away.
Where did this leave his face as the second-in-command?
Important guests? Aren't they just a bunch of youngsters? Since when did President Zhuo become so cheap? He snorted coldly, his gaze sweeping over everyone present one by one.
Hearing this, Zhuo Zhikuan's face also instantly darkened.
Get lost!
Right at this moment, Qin Ning's voice rang out, with just one simple word.
Young man, do you know who I am? How dare you speak to me like that. Shen Zhengtao was truly angry.
"I gave you a chance to get lost. Since you didn't appreciate it, you can't blame me for what happens next."
Qin Ning spoke calmly. He could tell just from the man's facial features that he was a parasite. Without wasting any more words, he took out his phone and dialed one of the very few numbers saved in his contacts.
"Qin Ning, how come you suddenly have time to call me?"
The voice came from the other end of the line. It was Elder Zeng.
Qin Ning didn't reply right away. Instead, he glanced at Shen Zhengtao and then asked Zhuo Zhikuan, "Who is he?"
"Shen Zhengtao from Shishan County," Zhuo Zhikuan answered truthfully.
In his heart, however, he was quite curious. He wondered who Qin Ning was calling. Shen Zhengtao was, after all, the second-in-command of the county. Could Qin Ning really settle this with just one phone call?
That was highly unlikely, wasn't it?

Bad news: I transmigrated. This is a terrifying high-martial world, and my original, pathetically weak body fell into a coma and never woke up. Good news: I got a Popularity Points system upon arrival. I can see live comments and even create an unkillable alternate identity. Starting out, the alternate identity has all stats at 1. The system tells me that to grow stronger, I must participate in the plot, gain popularity points to allocate stats and grow stronger, and ultimately awaken my original body.
