Chapter 172: All Relatives~
"One billion? She really dares to ask for that much."
After Meng Zeming left, he called Meng Ke and told her about this matter.
Meng Ke had just finished a meeting, and she was feeling annoyed at the moment.
She sneered, "You were intimidated by her?"
This amount was indeed quite large, but was he actually unable to even make the decision to refuse?
She had some different thoughts about this nephew whom she had always thought highly of; perhaps he was not as outstanding as she had imagined.
Meng Zeming: "……?"
What did she mean by being intimidated by her?
He wasn't the one paying the money, so didn't he have to come back and ask?
If he had agreed directly and she couldn't come up with that much liquid capital, wouldn't that just be letting people have their hopes up for nothing?
On the other end of the phone, he didn't dare to make a sound, unable to figure out what Meng Ke was thinking.
Did she think the other party asked for too little, or too much?
Meng Ke: "When you need to refuse, you must refuse. Do you think that little play-thing of a Company is worth it? You actually came back to ask me? The other party clearly showed an attitude of not wanting to sell to you."
"……"
Huh?
So she was actually blaming him?
At this moment, Meng Zeming vaguely understood something, "Aunt, you weren't looking for an excuse to give her money, were you?"
Judging by this tone, she really wanted to kill off Lin Sui's small Company.
Meng Ke was puzzled, "Why would I give her money? Are you crazy?"
To actually ask such a question.
Meng Zeming: "……"
A ruthless person, truly a ruthless person.
He finally knew where his fear of Meng Ke came from.
It was because of this heartless attitude; it was terrifying.
"If you don't get rid of her now, in the future, she will only become your strongest competitor."
One could tell just by watching Lin Sui's Live Streaming.
Lin Sui was just like her; as long as she could make money, she could sacrifice anything.
A black heart.
Those with black hearts are the ones who thrive the most!
Meng Zeming was still lacking a bit.
Meng Zeming pursed his lips, and after a long while, he asked uncertainly: "So when you told me to acquire it, you actually wanted me to pay for it?"
Meng Ke: "Otherwise? This small Company is not my competitor, and it poses no threat to me at all."
Meng Zeming: "……Fine, I understand."
Dropping this sentence, he hung up the phone directly.
The next second, he sent a new message to Lin Sui.
Meng Zeming: "I thought about it, the price is too expensive, I don't want it anymore."
If he had known earlier that he had to pay for it himself, he wouldn't have even made an appointment to meet Lin Sui today.
Who would want to acquire such a small Company?
Was he bored with nothing to do?
Lin Sui was not at all surprised to receive this text message.
It would be a miracle if he actually paid.
Lin Sui still replied to him in a friendly manner, "Welcome to come to my Live Streaming Room to learn next time. Just pay whatever you want for tuition, we're all relatives~"
Meng Zeming: "……"
Not coming.
Trying to scam his money again.
Both mother and daughter want to scam his money, how excessive!
Just as he was about to exit the chat box, Lin Sui sent another one over.
Lin Sui: "Speaking of relatives, Cousin, you even held me when I was little."
Meng Zeming: "?"
Lin Sui: "It's clear that Cousin has loved to lift me up since you were a child. Since that's the case, and we haven't seen each other in a long time, why don't you lend me some of your Company's senior employees for a few days?"
Meng Zeming: "……We just met. Besides, we haven't seen each other, what does that have to do with the other people in my Company?"
Meng Zeming: "And you said you don't poach people under contract?"
This little scheme was too obvious!
Lin Sui: "I'm not poaching, didn't I say I was borrowing? I'll return them to you after a while."
Meng Zeming: "Not lending."
Whether they would even come back after being borrowed was a problem.
Lin Sui: "Does your Company not have any proper senior employees?"
Meng Zeming: "I'm not falling for your tricks."
Lin Sui settled for the next best thing: "Then can I send people over to learn for a few days?"
"……"
It was clear that Lin Sui had no intention of letting go of this "mutual learning" opportunity.
She didn't even demand that his employees go over this time, which was fine.
"This is doable. Don't say I didn't give you face; such trade secrets could never be shown to a competitor. For the sake of us being relatives, I'll give you this chance."
From the three words "us being relatives," Lin Sui could practically taste the teeth-gritting resentment.
Lin Sui: "Cousin is generous! Give me an address."
After finishing the chat with him, Lin Sui immediately had people compile a list of all the various personnel recently hired, preparing to pack them up and send them to Meng Zeming's Company for a little advanced training.
Suddenly, Meng Zeming sent another message: "Don't mention it, just pay a little tuition."
Lin Sui: "?"
"That's a bit hurtful to our relationship."
Meng Zeming: "When you were asking me for tuition, did you think about hurting our relationship?"
Lin Sui: "Cousin, do you know how I've lived from childhood to now?"
This again?
He still didn't reply this time, waiting for Lin Sui to continue.
Sure enough, Lin Sui had no follow-up.
She brings up her upbringing whenever money is mentioned, yet she never actually continues the story!
Meng Zeming was currently in the underground garage of a large shopping mall, sitting in his luxury car, patiently waiting Lin Sui out; he wasn't even in a rush to go home.
After about a minute, a Bugatti Veyron with its sunroof open slowly drove past his car.
From that car, a familiar voice drifted out, "I've lived a life too miserable to look at!"
The next second, he received a voice-to-text message from Lin Sui on his phone.
"I've lived a life too miserable to look at!"
Meng Zeming: "..."
Before the other car left the garage, he quickly snapped a photo of its rear and sent it to Lin Sui.
Meng Zeming: "I don't know how you lived before, but I know how you're living now."
"【Image】 This car costs at least 25 million or so, right? I believe you can afford the tuition."
Lin Sui: "..."
Jiangcheng is truly small!
Before leaving the cafe, she had asked the system for yesterday's reward, and the system had rewarded her with a new car.
It was much more expensive than the previous Little Pink; after all, her net worth had multiplied several times over, so it was time to drive a better car.
She hadn't expected to run into Meng Zeming.
Lin Sui simply left him on read, drove the new car out for a few laps, and then returned to her Company.
After returning, she sent Meng Zeming a transfer of ten thousand yuan.
Lin Sui: "You said to just give whatever, right? The tuition you paid yesterday, after the platform took its cut and added on all sorts of miscellaneous service fees, this is about what's left. Giving it back to you as tuition."
Meng Zeming: "..."
Truly, the wool comes off the sheep's back.
She really gave it, and Meng Zeming really accepted it.
Meng Zeming: "Fine, just send your people over."
At most, it would just be calling over a few team leaders to learn how to manage a team; it wasn't a difficult task.
Not until the next day, when he saw over a hundred people at the entrance of the Company looking like a large tour group, crowding outside waiting for him, did Meng Zeming feel like the sky had collapsed.
He immediately sent a message to Lin Sui: "You sent over all the employees from your company?"
Lin Sui looked at her somewhat empty company and said without changing her expression: "No, there are still plenty of people left in the company."
Meng Zeming: "I even saw A Fu, for heaven's sake!"
Lin Sui was surprised: "You even know him?"
