Chapter 307: Urban Card-Drawing System (13)

"Yang Yang, I ordered a grapefruit lime, a Black Forest mousse, and macarons for you. Do you need anything else?" Chen Jiani returned from the bar.

Ever since she met Xie Yang and started frequently attending gatherings with her, she was no longer nervous about simple social interactions.

Xie Yang smiled at her: "Thanks, Nini, this is enough. Come sit, let's chat for a while."

"Sure."

But they hadn't chatted for long before Xue Ling, accompanied by Feng Xuanxuan and Zhu Qi, came over again.

Just a moment ago, the three of them had joined forces and already persuaded several wealthy young ladies to buy Tianqiong's wealth management products.

"Lingling, your cousin-in-law isn't pulling our leg, is she? Are we really getting a ten percent commission?" Feng Xuanxuan asked in a low voice. "They invested five or six million in total; can the three of us really split five or six hundred thousand?"

Just by chatting, they could split nearly two hundred thousand; Feng Xuanxuan felt this money was too easy to earn!

She had been strapped for cash lately. Ever since her grandfather and eldest cousin lost fifty million in the stock market, the pocket money for all the younger generation had been reduced. She used to think one hundred thousand was too little, but now it had dropped to thirty thousand—what could she even do with that!

That was why, upon hearing from Zhu Qi that Xue Ling's cousin-in-law had a very lucrative path—introducing high-quality clients to the Tianqiong wealth management platform to earn commissions—she had been so proactive in helping organize the gathering.

"It's a pity Xie Yang refuses to invest; the money in her hands is what you call real wealth. Xie Family Home Furnishings had very good performance last year, and with the dividends at the end of March, she got twenty million. She told me this herself, and she also said her dad never cares how she spends it. If we could persuade her to buy Tianqiong, we could get quite a lot of commission."

"Aren't you her good sister? If you step in and she's still unwilling, we have even less chance of persuading her."

Xue Ling was also calculating the high-quality clients she had pulled in today; five or six million was still too little. Her cousin-in-law's side had already pulled in over fifty million. The commission coefficients for the million-level and ten-million-level were not in the same league.

Feng Xuanxuan was right. As for these people, don't look at their gorgeous outfits and expensive accessories; when it comes to who has the most cash, it has to be Xie Yang. The main thing is that Xie Yang has a good father who never restricts her spending and rarely asks how she spends her money.

Unlike them, even if they received huge amounts of lucky money for the New Year or huge red envelopes for their birthdays, it would be borrowed by their parents to serve as the company's working capital within a few days.

Therefore, to aim for the ten-million-level commission, one still has to find Xie Yang!

"Let's go! Let's try to persuade her again. With such high interest on wealth management, how a pity it would be to miss it! We are truly doing this for her own good!"

"Exactly, if I had the money, I would have invested in a heartbeat."

Thus, the three of them held their red wine glasses and swayed gracefully toward the big fat sheep in their eyes.

Xie "Fat Sheep" Yang saw them coming, curved her eyebrows, and spoke first: "I just looked into the wealth management platform you mentioned; it is indeed quite good. Xuanxuan, how much are you planning to invest? I'll do the same as you!"

Feng Xuanxuan: "..."

The same as her?

But she hadn't planned on investing at all!

Commissions could be earned, but the key was safety.

She wasn't an idiot. Although Xue Ling didn't say it, with such a high rate of return, the risk must be huge too!

If it were truly zero-risk, Xue Ling would buy it even if she had to borrow money; would she be so kind as to reveal this get-rich-quick channel to them? But Xue Ling herself had only tested the waters a little, and this test was mostly to persuade them.

Feng Xuanxuan analyzed it shrewdly and made up her mind not to invest.

But since she wouldn't invest, Xie Yang wasn't willing to invest either, and even put on a cold face in public:

"What is the meaning of this? You keep blowing about how good this platform is, but after all this time, you haven't invested a single cent yourself? Is this some kind of pyramid scheme? Even the people at the top buy the products. You're playing a 'white wolf with empty gloves'—this is even more ruthless than a pyramid scheme!"

"..."

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Feng Xuanxuan lost face completely, her pretty face flushed with shame:

"Yang Yang, you know, my pocket money isn't much..."

"It's precisely because your pocket money isn't much that you need to earn more!" Xie Yang frowned, as if she had just realized it. "Right, I'm not short on money to spend. If it weren't for your sake, I never would have thought about wealth management at all. The bank interest is enough for me to spend; why go through all this trouble? Maybe let's just forget it."

"We can't forget it!" Xue Ling hurriedly stopped her, and upon realizing, immediately tried to make up for it. "I mean, what a pity to miss such a good money-making opportunity! Xuanxuan is strapped for cash, so she can't help it..."

"If you're strapped for cash, you need to find a way to make money even more. You also said this is a heaven-sent opportunity, a once-in-a-lifetime chance, so why not find a way to earn it?" Xie Yang blinked. "If it were me, I'd borrow from my brothers and sisters at home, scrape together five hundred thousand or a million, and after investing for a month, I could earn hundreds of thousands. Xuanxuan, your monthly pocket money is only one hundred thousand, right? You could earn several months' worth of pocket money in one month; why not try it? Or is it that this platform actually has high risks, and you're afraid that once you put the money in, you won't be able to redeem it, so you don't dare?"

"..."

How could Xue Ling dare to answer that? If she mentioned high risk, what would happen if those sisters who just bought the products regretted it and wanted to redeem them? Wouldn't she have worked for nothing?

Don't look at how it was Zhu Qi who organized the gathering on the surface today; the expenses were all paid out of her own pocket. Just coming into the Presidential Private Room cost five figures, not including the drinks, tea, snacks, and bartender tips.

Even without opening the bottle of red wine she brought, the consumption for just half a day in the private room might break six figures. If she didn't earn the commission and instead lost eighty or a hundred thousand, she would be sick to her stomach!

"Xie Yang, you misunderstood! That's not what I meant. Actually, Xuanxuan was just telling us that she really wants to buy some wealth management products."

"I didn't..." As soon as the words left Feng Xuanxuan's mouth, she received a look from Xue Ling and changed her tune in time. "I did mention it, but my monthly pocket money is so little that even if I want to buy wealth management products, I'm powerless. If I had the money, I would have bought it long ago. I really am very optimistic about this platform."

Xie Yang frowned slightly, as if thinking: "My dad once taught me not to trust investments with high returns easily. You keep guaranteeing that this product has high returns and zero risk, but I haven't seen you buy it yourselves, which makes me suspicious."

"That's right, Xue Ling herself only bought five hundred thousand and redeemed it when it matured. Since the interest is so high, why not keep buying?"

"Zhu Qi only bought two hundred thousand, and Feng Xuanxuan didn't buy a single cent, yet they were blowing it up to the heavens to us. Could there really be something fishy going on?"

"What should we do? But I've already bought it; is it too late to cancel?"

Under the lobbying of Xue Ling and the others, the other wealthy young ladies who had already purchased the wealth management products heard Xie Yang's questioning, couldn't help but look at each other, and then began to whisper among themselves.

Xue Ling was anxious, fearing that the duck that was already in her mouth would fly away: "Xie Yang, don't talk nonsense. We didn't buy it because we've been busy hosting everyone and haven't had time to sit down and operate it. Furthermore, my cousin borrowed a sum of money from me and said he would pay me back in a moment, so I was just waiting for that money to arrive to lend it to Xuanxuan, and then we would buy it together."

"Alright, then I misunderstood you." Xie Yang shrugged.

Xue Ling pretended to look at her phone: "Oh! My cousin paid me back! Xuanxuan, let me transfer it to you."

Feng Xuanxuan looked sullen; she didn't want to borrow it at all. If she borrowed it, wouldn't she have to pay it back? Wealth management has gains and losses; if it loses money, who takes the hit?
