Chapter 740: Time Passes in a Flash

Two months of time was enough for Sun Cheng to once again adapt to the slow pace of the real world.

It was currently office hours, and because his industry in the real world—the Cybertron Technology Group—was increasingly on the right track, there was less and less work that required him, the boss, to handle personally.

Sun Cheng was not a boss who liked to engage in formalism; aside from necessary meetings, he rarely bothered the company's middle and senior management personnel.

Because he firmly held the company's finances, personnel appointments and removals, and scientific research in his own hands, he basically did not ask about other matters, leaving them all to the group of professional managers he had hired at high salaries, letting them perform as they pleased.

The effect of doing this was obvious; Sun Cheng was almost liberated from the heavy work of group management.

Most of the time, he could stay in the three laboratories that had already been built under the group, or stay in his own office.

Today, Sun Cheng was exactly like this; after arriving at the company in the morning, he was in his office, using the micro-Decepticon—Xiao Wu—to browse the task acceptance and completion data on the Magic House backend.

Assistant Lin Bing was also in his office, and nothing that filthy-minded people might imagine had occurred.

This intelligent woman had successfully attracted Sun Cheng over the past few months with her ability and performance.

Therefore, before returning to the Transformers universe last time, he already had the idea of developing Lin Bing into his first confidante in the real world to help him share more of the workload.

And after returning this time, Sun Cheng spent half a month conducting a thorough background investigation and assessment of her before finally making the decision and personally extending an invitation to her.

Pouring a cup of tea for Sun Cheng and bringing it to his desk, Lin Bing glanced at the content on his phone and said proactively with a faint smile: "Boss, the members in the two chat rooms have been quite active recently regarding the tasks posted on Magic House."

Sun Cheng nodded; after she passed his assessment, he treated Lin Bing as a true confidante to cultivate.

Although his suspicious nature meant he always kept a trick up his sleeve as a precaution.

However, Sun Cheng also gave the trust that should be given.

In terms of life, he provided an extra monthly subsidy from his private account specifically for Lin Bing, a high compensation far exceeding three times her current monthly salary as the chairman's assistant.

In terms of power, Lin Bing's position within the company remained unchanged, but Sun Cheng let her begin helping him manage the Magic House chat software, directly handling and supervising the procurement of materials involving billions of Xia Yuan.

And this woman truly did not disappoint him.

Sun Cheng did not know what methods she used, but anyway, after Lin Bing became the second administrator of the Magic House chat rooms.

Whether it was the China Technology Exchange Room 1, the Southeast Asian Chinese Exchange Room 3, or even the North American Chinese Exchange Room 17, which had previously been seeing a constant decrease in numbers, the personnel began to show rapid growth.

As of today, the China Technology Exchange Room 1, which had the most members, had now exceeded seven hundred people, and the Southeast Asian Chinese Exchange Room 3 had also reached over four hundred.

What Sun Cheng found most incredible was the North American Chinese Exchange Room 17, which now also had over three hundred members.

Although he had let Revenge monitor all data during Lin Bing's management period, because he had authorized the offline invitation rights to Lin Bing, Sun Cheng was completely ignorant of her invitation methods outside of Magic House.

"When the money is in place, everything is easy to handle. Our tasks leave enough profit margin for them. In the current era of deglobalization, being able to get a thirty percent net profit, aside from arms, medical, and a few high-tech fields, only leaves crime!"

Sun Cheng replied calmly; he naturally understood why those members in the chat rooms were so active.

In just two short months, the batch of materials he initially wanted to procure had already been fully purchased, with a total value reaching 1.172 billion Xia Yuan, encompassing over one hundred types of raw materials, semi-finished products, and components.

Currently, through the Magic House chat rooms, Sun Cheng was conducting the procurement of a second batch of materials, with both the amount and scale being even larger than the first batch.

It was also because he could not really be considered a qualified businessman, and he had a world as his final shield behind him.

Otherwise, if it were another businessman, they could argue until they were red in the face for a one percent net profit.

"We are too short on time; using money to buy time is worth it!"

Smelling the unfamiliar scent on the table, Sun Cheng frowned slightly.

He glanced at the somewhat grayish-yellow tea on his desk; a rich fruity aroma made him, who had recently grown accustomed to bitter green tea, feel a bit unaccustomed.

Lin Bing noticed the change on his face, and her soft voice sounded from the side.

"It's heated lemon tea. Boss, you are afraid of the cold but not the heat, and you always like to keep the temperature in the office very high. It's easy to get internal heat in this kind of weather!"

Upon hearing this, Sun Cheng subconsciously glanced at the wristwatch on his left wrist, but he immediately reacted.

He nodded slightly, "Thank you!"

After thanking her, he picked up the teacup emitting the rich fruity aroma and took a small sip.

Not bad, slightly sweet!

Ye Qi had a heavy palate and ate sweet and spicy food.

She had been in charge of Sun Cheng's meals since he was a child, and since the two had lived together for the past half year, she had been the one cooking most of the time, which naturally influenced Sun Cheng.

"The taste is good, not hard to drink!"

"I added some honey because you don't eat sour things, Boss!"

Sun Cheng indeed did not eat sour things, especially sour fruits, which he almost never touched.

He had not expected that Lin Bing would consider all his preferences; after some honey was added to this hot lemon tea, the unique sourness of the lemon was neutralized, making it not so hard to drink.

Knowing he liked quiet, this sensible young assistant did not stay in Sun Cheng's office for long.

She refilled his tea, took the opportunity to simply clean and tidy up the office for him, and soon left.

As soon as she left, Sun Cheng leaned back in his office chair, a more solemn expression appearing on his face.

Over the past two months, he had lived a life that was both dull and fulfilling.

Except for the traditional Xia Country Spring Festival period, when Sun Cheng and Ye Qi briefly returned to his hometown in Subei to spend a week of the Spring Festival holiday with the Ye Shu couple who had adopted him, and took the opportunity to buy them a detached villa in Subei since they were unwilling to come to Nandu.

For the rest of the time, he had been procuring materials for the Mars Base in the Transformers universe before his return trip.

Along the way, Sun Cheng also quietly went to Nublar Island; under the personal management of Defender, the progress at Base No. 3 was rapid, and it would soon be able to catch up to the Decepticon sub-base on Trindade Island before it was transformed into a black market.

"A short two-month vacation; counting it up, it's about time to end!"

During these two months of returning to the real world to wait for the procurement of materials, Sun Cheng's short rest had already begun to make him feel a bit impatient.

Having long been accustomed to the danger and excitement of the Transformers universe, he now wanted to leave again.
