Chapter 43 - 43 45 Qianghua North

43: Chapter 45: Qianghua North 43: Chapter 45: Qianghua North The next day, morning.

After getting up and having breakfast, Li Zhongnan asked Gao Yan for some documentation and then drove straight to Nangang City.

He sped all the way to the new store entrance.

As soon as he got out of the car, Han Xue walked out of the store and cried out as if she had seen a ghost: “Li Zhongnan, did you change your car?

Oh my god, a brand-new Ferrari!

Did you really rob a bank?”

Li Zhongnan looked at the astonished expression of the beautiful young lady and said with a simple smile, “I bought it for a dollar.”

“Who are you kidding!

Spill the beans, where did you get it from!

Were you being kept by a rich woman?” Han Xue naturally didn’t believe him.

She wasn’t one of those country bumpkins from Li Family Village, she knew clearly how much this car cost.

She would never believe that he bought it for a dollar.

“I wish.

But my caliber is so high that there isn’t a single woman in all of China who could afford me!” Li Zhongnan sighed and emphasized again, “I’ve told you, I bought it for a dollar.

Believe it or not.”

Han Xue rolled her eyes at him and said, “Alright, I’ll offer two dollars.

You sell it to me.”

Li Zhongnan chuckled, “I would even give it to you for free.”

Han Xue called out, “If you dare to give it to me, I dare to take it!”

“Sure, once I get bored of it, I’ll give it to you.”

Li Zhongnan said casually, and then asked, “How is the work progressing these two days?”

Han Xue flicked her hair, stretched lazily and said, “I’m almost done with the busy part.

I guess in another two days, things will ease up for me here.

The main thing next is the staff training, waiting for the business license to arrive, and as soon as the inventory is in place, we can open for business.”

She went on to ask, “We hired some salespeople yesterday.

The interviews are still going on today, do you want to take a look?”

Then, she took him into the store.

“Good morning, President Han!”

More than twenty girls quickly stood up, neatly aligned in two columns.

They were dressed uniformly, of similar height, and chorused their greeting in unison.

Li Zhongnan was slightly taken aback, quite pleased with the scene.

Han Xue gave the girls a smile and pointed at Li Zhongnan, “This is the real boss, I’m just an employee!”

The girls then greeted him, “Good morning, boss!”

Then one by one they stole glances at him; even a few more outgoing and attractive ones started to flirt with their eyes.

This young, handsome boss, with a substantial store and driving a Ferrari, was significantly more impressive than any of the Diamond King No.5’s.

If they could hook up with him, it would be an instant transformation from chicken to phoenix.

“Morning to you all too!”

Li Zhongnan’s gaze swept over the girls, and he couldn’t help but feel a bit chuffed.

The quality of these girls was not bad – youthful, beautiful, and tall.

If this was a month ago, they probably wouldn’t have looked at him twice.

But now, not many dared to even look at him directly.

He suddenly realized that he was no longer just a country junk collector.

Now, to some extent, large or small, he was the boss!

“Keep looking like that and your eyeballs might fall out!” Han Xue said somewhat jealously, and with a playful smile asked, “President Li, would you like to say a few words?”

Li Zhongnan was eager to give it a go, and said with a simple smile, “Alright, then I’ll say a few words.”

What’s there to fear about bragging?

That’s what he loved and was best at doing.

After a few false coughs to clear his throat, he started to talk, rambling on for half an hour, filled with a lot of empty, meaningless platitudes which made Han Xue almost fall asleep.

However, Li Zhongnan became more and more enthusiastic the longer he spoke.

He had no choice, he saw the girls attentively listening, each one all ears, not blinking, worried about missing even a single word!

Since they enjoyed listening so much, even if he was left with a dry mouth, he had to carry on!

Finally, he encouraged them loudly: “Your background can’t determine your future, your degrees can’t determine your height, and your looks can’t determine your achievements.

Hard work, only through hard work can all this be determined.

Not joking, I used to be a garbage collector, and now, I still am.

So, regardless of your degree or what you used to do or what your job is now, as long as you work hard, in the future you will definitely surpass me!

Thank you!”

Clap, clap, clap…

The applause was like tidal waves, loud and enthusiastic.

Li Zhongnan was feeling quite pleased with himself, and turned to ask Han Xue: “How did I do?

was it exciting?”

Han Xue yawned and teased: “Exciting, just as exciting as when Old Han speaks.”

With that, Li Zhongnan remembered when they were in school, during every school meeting, everyone would stand under the scorching sun listening to the principal rambling on and on, clapping passionately but all the while cursing under their breath.

Seemed like he had played the same role?

Of course, he would never admit that and chuckled, “Since it was exciting, I’ll make more time and do this three to five times a week!”

Hearing his words, the girls one after another said they were looking forward to it.

But inside, they couldn’t help but whine with dread!

“Here are the company’s legal representative’s documents!”

Li Zhongnan handed Gao Yan’s documents to Han Xue.

Then he said: “In a few days, Zhihua will graduate, he called me yesterday to tell me.

I’m planning on going to Shenzhen now to take care of the supply situation.

Do you want to come?”

Shenzhen is an international metropolis and a technological city; it’s one of the most prosperous places for electronic product trading in the country.

Plus, it naturally has a lot of electronic waste.

Zhihua, whose real name is Cai Zhihua, is a fresh graduate from Shenda University.

Universities in the south have a tradition of inviting friends to graduation ceremonies, which has more or less become a matter of face.

Everyone is usually happy to participate, taking the opportunity to catch up and hang out with old friends they haven’t seen in a while; if they could manage to hook up, that would be even better.

Li Zhongnan and Cai Zhihua were best buddies for six years, they were as close as brothers.

Of course, he had to attend this graduation ceremony.

Han Xue thought for a moment and shook her head, “I’ll go on the day, I still have a lot of things to handle now.”

She had a lot on her plate and besides, her social circle was different from his.

She wasn’t that close to Cai Zhihua, so going there on the day was adequate.

Li Zhongnan nodded, then took his leave.

Next, he made a trip to the traffic police detachment to get his driver’s license from Ge Qing.

Afterwards, he stopped by a restaurant, ordered a few dishes and got two boxed lunches as well as several bottles of water to eat on the road.

Since he had just got his driver’s license, he couldn’t take the highway and had to use the national road instead.

The pace was slower, and what would normally be a six-hour journey took almost ten hours.

By the time he arrived at Guangcheng Menhu Town, it was already dark.

Past Menhu Town was the security area of Shenzhen.

After some contemplation, Li Zhongnan decided to find the source of his inventory first.

After searching online, he decided to head straight to Qianghua North in Tian Fu District, which was China’s number one electronics street.

Once he got there, he parked his car.

Looking at the towering skyscrapers, the vehicles moving in fits and starts like ants and the hurried pedestrians who seemed to cover several meters in a single step, Li Zhongnan suddenly felt lost, not knowing where to go.

Well, he should probably rent a room first.

He anticipated having to visit the city often in the future.

Furthermore, without a space of his own in such a bustling metropolis, if he happened to use the system and got caught on camera, it could easily get posted online.
