YM778.TV Chapter 557 - 5571 Love You, Husband
“We’ve been talking for a while and I realized that you’re missing a butler.”
Jiang Xu was taken aback.
Indeed.
He observed that those truly wealthy individuals or prestigious families all had one or two butlers to take care of all the various affairs of the household.
Jiang Xu had indeed not thought about this before. President Ma continued, “A loyal, extremely capable butler can save you a lot of time and effort. It’s essential to have one.
If you don’t have one, I can introduce a few to you.”
Jiang Xu smiled and said, “Thanks, Mr. Ma, there’s no rush for this. I’ll take my time choosing.”
Jiang Xu wasn’t willing to use a butler introduced by someone else.
Who knew if they would be someone else’s person?
President Ma smiled and did not insist.
He looked at the time; it was almost one o’clock in the morning.
President Ma clearly hadn’t had his fill of fun yet.
Giving Jiang Xu a meaningful look, he said, “Magic City has a newly opened top-class club recently.
Everyone there is from the Western Region, from the circles of Mao Da and
Mao Er. Interested?
I’m telling you, the girls there are all full of exotic charm, and their bodies…”
He rattled on and on.
It was clear that President Ma was a man of passions.
Jiang Xu smiled and said, “I’d better not go, thanks Mr. Ma. My girlfriend is waiting for me at home.”
President Ma patted Jiang Xu’s shoulder, “Alright, I know you’ve got a stunning fiancee.”
On the way back home, he received a call from Liu Dahai.
He had settled in nicely over there and was reporting to Jiang Xu for the second time.
Liu Dahai’s capabilities were indeed exceptional.
It hadn’t taken him long to almost blend into the local scene.
The next step was to slowly build up his reputation.
“By the way, Dahai, do you know where I can find a trustworthy and excellent butler?”
“A butler? Oh!” Liu Dahai was overjoyed and quickly said, “Ninety percent of the world’s top butlers graduate from Lion Country.
Just recently, my cousin graduated from there and hasn’t found a job yet.
I wonder if you’d be willing to give her an opportunity.”
Liu Dahai had intended to look for a chance to talk to Jiang Xu about this.
With Jiang Xu bringing it up, it was even better.
“That’s possible,” Jiang Xu smiled. “Give me her contact details, and I’ll meet her in person tomorrow.”
Liu Dahai had now become one of Jiang Xu’s absolute confidants.
A relative recommended by him would naturally be more trustworthy.
When he got home, he found that An Nuonuo had not returned.
He sent her a message, and not long after, she called back.
The place was noisy: “Brother Xu, we’re singing karaoke.” Jiang Xu snorted, “An Nuonuo, you’re getting bolder, not coming home so late without even checking in.”
“It’s not like that, listen to me explain,” An Nuonuo’s voice was sweet and soft: “It was because we were playing a game earlier, and they wouldn’t let me check in with you.”
“Alright, alright, just be careful and come back early tomorrow.
Jiang Xu wasn’t really angry.
“Got it, you should also rest early. Goodnight, love you, hubby-”
Jiang Xu couldn’t handle it.
He ended the call voluntarily.
Time to wash up and sleep.
When he woke up the next day, he saw An Nuonuo lying beside him, her hand dangling over Jiang Xu’s abdomen, sleeping sweetly.
Jiang Xu almost laughed out loud; the girl was actually drooling.
Such a rare scene had to be captured.
He gently moved her hand away.
After getting up and washing up, Jiang Xu called Liu Dahai’s cousin.
The call was answered immediately.
“Hello, may I speak with Mr. Jiang?”
The voice was quite pleasant, with a hint of magnetism.
The other party was already awake early in the morning and answered the call instantly.
It was very likely they had been waiting on purpose, just to await his call.
“Yes,” Jiang Xu said calmly, “how may I address you?
“Just call me Su Cheng,” she replied.
“Great, could you come to my company later for a chat?”
“Sure.”
After ending the call, Jiang Xu returned to his bedroom to wake An Nuonuo with a morning call service.
When An Nuonuo woke up, she felt as though she was in the center of rolling waves, with a strong sense of being tossed about, the ceiling swaying up and down…
By the time Jiang Xu arrived at the company, Su Cheng was already there.
In the reception room.
“Mr. Jiang, hello,” Su Cheng stood up, bowing slightly.
Jiang Xu smiled and said, “Please, have a seat.”
He gave her a thorough once-over from head to toe.
Short hair, wearing a ladies’ suit, about 1.7 meters tall.
If looks could be rated out of a hundred, she would score about an 88.
Judging by her appearance, she was around thirty years old.
She had a certain quality that ordinary people did not possess, giving off a sense of solidity and reassurance.
From their first interaction, Jiang Xu was quite satisfied with her.
He proceeded to ask her some questions, to which she responded fluently. “Let’s start with a three-month probationary period then, with a monthly salary of five hundred thousand, and a raise of a hundred thousand after becoming permanent,” Jiang Xu tapped his fingers on the table, “however, before that, I need to send someone to conduct a comprehensive check on you.” Su Cheng smiled and said, “Of course, you can investigate me.” After Su Cheng left, Jiang Xu dispatched a reliable person to carry out a meticulous investigation on her.
Once the results came back without any issues, she could be appointed to the position.
Afterward, Jiang Xu went to meet with the boss of Baoleme.
The company was also established in Magic City.
According to the timeline, Baoleme hadn’t even launched its own app yet; its development was only local.
It would take another year and a half for it to embark on the path of rapid growth.
The acquisition of Baoleme went smoothly.
After meeting several of the founders, Jiang Xu made a staggering offer of a billion yuan.
It’s worth noting that during Baoleme’s first round of financing, they raised only one million yuan.
The four founders were so dazed by the billion that they hardly hesitated before selling.
All shares transferred into Jiang Xu’s hands.
Then Jiang Xu hired these founders with high salaries to continue as company executives.
He also set up a reward system.
For every designated increase in user numbers in the future, they would receive a generous bonus.
This was to motivate them.
Once the app and such were online, they could use WeChat for traffic attraction.
The cost was almost negligible.
But the future profits it could bring him were immensely large. Probably WeChat was already turning green with regret by now. They had let such a valuable traffic portal go to Jiang Xu at such a low price. And what’s more, the sale was for many years.
Jiang Xu then looked into international news.
The photolithography machine incident was not over yet, but those in a fuss had not figured out who the instigator was.
Probably, after some time, they would give up. Having finished his business, Jiang Xu was about to head back when Jiang Xiaoyan called: “Come to my company, I’ve got something good for you..
