Chapter 496

The Zheng Xiang that Jiang Ming mentioned was one of the lackeys who had been following him.

Ye Chen asked curiously, "How come? Is Zheng Xiang in the same company as you?"

"Yes," Jiang Ming said with a smile, "Zheng Xiang is one of my assistants."

As he spoke, he said to Ye Chen, "Come and help me. I don't need you to have any work experience; just do odd jobs for me, serve tea, and pour water. Anyway, you're best at serving people. Three thousand a month, how about it?"

Serve tea and pour water?

Three thousand a month?

Ye Chen smiled and said, "The salary is so high, how could I be worthy of it? I'd better not go."

Jiang Ming nodded and said triumphantly, "I'm not bragging to you, if you hang out with me, you'll have a day where you make big money sooner or later. Take Zheng Xiang for example; if it weren't for me, he would have starved to death long ago."

As he spoke, he said with a smug look, "How about it? Are you tempted? If you are, just tell me. With one word from me, you can come to work tomorrow!"

Upon hearing this, Zheng Xiang's face was full of embarrassment, but he dared not refute.

Hearing Jiang Ming's "invitation," Ye Chen shook his head and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but I'm used to eating soft rice, so forget it."

A flash of anger rose on Jiang Ming's face, and he suppressed his temper, saying, "Ye Chen, you really treat other people's kindness as donkey lungs. I kindly offered you a job, and this is your attitude?"

At this time, Aunt Li saw this and hurriedly said, "Alright, alright, you two stop bickering. This was supposed to be a harmonious gathering. If you two keep arguing like this, I don't think we should eat this meal, lest you two become enemies after eating!"

Jiang Ming said with a wronged look, "Aunt Li, to be honest, I really am doing this for Ye Chen's own good. I don't usually take others to get rich. If he could really put down his pride and come work for me, I would definitely take him to make more money."

As he spoke, Jiang Ming looked at everyone and said seriously, "Everyone, we grew up together, so there's no need for me to lie to you. To tell you the truth, I am now a director at a fund company, and this fund company of ours is under the Wang Group."

"Everyone should have heard of funds; they make money very quickly. Sometimes you invest 100,000, and the next day it becomes 100,000-plus, and in a month it becomes 200,000-plus. We who work in funds have a lot of inside information ourselves, but I usually never disclose it to the outside world, let alone take others to make money. I really see that Ye Chen is too pitiful as a live-in son-in-law, so I'm pointing him toward a bright path."

Upon hearing this, someone immediately asked, "Brother Ming, are you really working in funds? Then can you disclose some inside information to us?"

Seeing that everyone had fallen for it, Jiang Ming immediately nodded and said, "To tell you the truth, I do have a lot of inside information in my hands. I also made some money by relying on inside information myself. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to afford a Mercedes."

As he spoke, Jiang Ming added, "Oh, by the way, I actually have more than one car. I have another car, but that car is relatively low-key, so you might not have heard of it."

Someone hurriedly asked, "What car? Tell us about it."

Jiang Ming smiled and said, "A Volkswagen, a Volkswagen Phaeton."

After finishing, he took Ma Zhongliang's Phaeton car key out of his pocket, slapped it on the table, and said with a smile, "Look, there is a Volkswagen logo on it, and the English for Phaeton, but people who don't know the business will think this car is very cheap when they see the Volkswagen logo, and will even mistake it for a Passat. That's why I bought this car; after all, it's low-key!"

In fact, when he said this, Jiang Ming's heart was bleeding.

What he said was entirely his own personal experience just now.

It was because he didn't see the English for Phaeton clearly and only saw the Volkswagen logo that he mistook someone else's car for a Passat and crashed into it.

Now he was in trouble; there was a hole of over a million, and he had no idea how to plug it.

If the plan he thought of today couldn't plug it, he would basically be finished.

"Holy crap!!! Is it really a Phaeton?!"

A boy recognized the Phaeton car key and saw the W12 lettering on it, exclaiming, "This is Volkswagen's most expensive model. The top-of-the-line model costs over 2 million. It's known as the most low-key super luxury car. My god, Brother Ming, you actually bought a Phaeton? Isn't that too low-key?"

The few people who came in the same car as Jiang Ming and saw the whole story of the accident had somewhat unnatural expressions.

They didn't expect Jiang Ming to be able to apply this matter to himself and then use it to brag.

However, they were all Jiang Ming's lackeys, so naturally, they didn't dare to expose Jiang Ming's lies.

Jiang Ming smiled indifferently at this time and said, "Actually, we people who work in funds are very low-key because this industry is indeed very profitable. Many people want to make money with you. Once they know you have inside information and you have a way to make money grow, they all want to hitch a ride and make a fortune with you."

That person asked again, "By the way, Brother Ming, what model of Phaeton did you buy?"

Jiang Ming smiled indifferently and said with an arrogant look, "I bought a Phaeton, it's a W12, which means a 12-cylinder engine."

"My god!" The person said, dumbfounded, "Brother Ming, this is the top-of-the-line Phaeton, right? It must cost over two million in total?"

Jiang Ming smiled and waved his hand, "Actually, it's nothing."

As he spoke, Jiang Ming added, "Actually, I was just being low-key earlier, which is why I didn't tell everyone my actual income. We who work in funds usually focus on 1-2 funds a month. If these 1-2 funds are done well, each one can bring us hundreds of thousands or even higher returns."

At this time, someone hurriedly asked, "Brother Ming, we've had a relationship for so many years. Since you have such a profitable way, can you pull your brother along? I'm getting married soon, and my mother-in-law is asking me for a 300,000 dowry. How can I afford that? I've been living frugally until now and have only saved a little over 100,000. At this rate, I definitely won't be able to get married..."

Ye Chen recognized this kid; his name was Zhao Zhuoyue, and he was also an orphan.

When Jiang Ming heard that he had savings of over 100,000, he immediately had crooked thoughts in his mind.

He blurted out, "In funds, the main thing is to use leverage. The more money you have, the more you earn. Your 100,000-plus is indeed too little as starting capital."

Zhao Zhuoyue begged, "Brother Ming, this is all my marriage savings. I can't take out even a penny more..."

As he spoke, he choked up and said, "Brother Ming, to be honest, an orphan and loser like me, with no parents since I was young, no money, no skills, and having not gone to school for many years, is basically half-illiterate. I can only work hard outside to earn some money, which is too difficult. And now I want to marry a wife but can't. I beg you, for the sake of how pitiful your brother is, please help me and pull me along!"

Jiang Ming pretended to be in a difficult position and said, "Brother, let me tell you something from the bottom of my heart. To play funds, you need capital. Your 100,000-plus is really too little. I can't even get you into the market."

As he spoke, he cupped his hands apologetically, "Sorry, brother, don't blame me."
