Chapter 142: Yang Tao, Isn't That the Same Thing

"Ding! One sowing, reward: Basic Programming Mastery."

Although the entanglement ran deep,

Qin Feng heard the system prompt only once.

At this moment,

the sky was fully bright.

Andy and Qu Xiaoxiao were both fast asleep,

so Qin Feng rose and left,

quietly closing the door behind him,

only then opening his phone to prepare to send a WeChat message to Qu Xiaoxiao.

Then,

Qin Feng saw the messages Song Qian and Seeing Tong Wenjie had sent one after another last night.

Thinking about it,

there had been too many things happening these past few days,

so his interactions with Song Qian and Seeing Tong Wenjie had indeed been a bit fewer.

So, after finishing the business of these few days,

he would go chat with Song Qian and Seeing Tong Wenjie.

He casually replied to Song Qian and Seeing Tong Wenjie that he had been busy with matters these past few days.

Qin Feng then opened Qu Xiaoxiao's WeChat and said he was going to school.

Then,

Qin Feng arrived at the garage, opened the door, and got into the car.

Just as he pressed the start button,

Qin Feng's phone rang.

Picking it up to look,

it turned out to be a call from Yang Tao.

That day,

Qin Feng had planned to go see Yang Tao's renovation progress in the evening after finishing his work,

but he forgot because something came up.

So,

Qin Feng answered the call: "Yang Tao, do you need something from me?"

"Of course I need something!"

On the other end of the line, Yang Tao sounded puffed up with anger: "Boss, I said let you completely delegate authority, not that you should manage nothing!"

Qin Feng chuckled: "Isn't that the same thing?"

"It's not the same!"

Yang Tao on the other end of the line rolled her eyes in speechless exasperation: "Boss, our shop is already more than half renovated. Do you really not plan to come take a look?"

"I've had some things to deal with these past few days."

Qin Feng replied casually: "Besides, you are there for everything!"

"Boss, are you really planning to use me like an ox?"

Yang Tao on the other end of the line looked resentful: "These past few days, besides sleeping, I've even eaten at the construction site. Leaving early and returning late every day has exhausted me to death!"

"However, the current renovation progress meets expectations, and the renovation effect is also very good."

"Boss, my idea is that we could offer the renovation company a bit more money. First to praise them, and second to urge them to speed up the progress. What do you think?"

"Yang Tao, are you asking for my opinion, or just simply telling me?"

Qin Feng did not answer immediately but asked back aloud.

"My boss, is there a difference between those two sentences?"

"Of course there is."

Qin Feng smiled: "If you are just simply telling me, then I will not express any opinion, because I have already completely delegated authority to you. Whatever you do is up to you!"

"But if you are asking for my opinion, I will tell you: no."

"Yang Tao, every country has its laws, and every trade has its rules. Business cooperation cannot be too emotional."

"Since you already signed a cooperation agreement with the renovation company before the renovation, do not add money, and do not privately give those renovation workers so-called tip money."

"Because once you do this, they will feel that these tasks, which were originally their duty, can become leverage to blackmail you."

"These past few days you saw them doing well, so you added a little money, letting them taste the sweetness."

"Then later, when they no longer have sweetness, what will they do?"

"Yang Tao, the essence of human nature is vicious. Once they taste the sweetness, they will no longer work with peace of mind."

"And, in order to get more benefits from your hands, Menfaner Society will instead use things like engineering quality and construction schedule as leverage to ask you for more money."

"So, the consequence of you doing this might only be to invite their construction delays and cutting corners, and then after you urge them repeatedly, they will try various tricks to ask you for more money!"

After listening to Qin Feng's words,

Yang Tao on the other end of the line fell into thought.

After a while,

she nodded heavily and said: "Boss, you are right. People around me have all experienced such things, and I have heard them mention it too. I just forgot for a moment because I was too happy."

"So, Boss, I know what to do now. Thank you for the reminder."

"You're welcome. I'll drive off now."

Qin Feng nodded and was just about to hang up the phone when

Yang Tao called out again, "Boss, oh boss, when exactly are you coming to the shop to take a look?"

"We'll see."

Qin Feng smiled and said, "I'll go when I have time!"

"Only a fool would believe you!"

On the other end of the line, Yang Tao said angrily, "If I had known it would be like this now, I wouldn't have let you delegate authority. This is completely digging my own grave!"

"Alright, alright, I'll treat you to a big meal when I have time!"

Qin Feng laughed heartily and hung up the phone,

then directly pressed the accelerator and drove toward Qingbei University.

At this moment,

Qingbei University had already finished military training

and had begun regular classes.
