Chapter 75

"Huh?"

Xu Wen was taken aback.

Just now, he was talking about giving a kickback, and he didn't agree. Now, he actually came to the door himself.

He even said the price could be set by him.

What kind of move is this?

"Isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

"There's nothing inappropriate about it. As long as Mr. Lin doesn't hold it against me, it's fine." Zhang Guozhu said nervously.

Lin Yi scratched his head, feeling a bit puzzled.

What did he do? He didn't expose his identity. How did this guy recognize him?

"There's nothing to hold against. If you really want to talk, talk to our boss. I'm just an employee."

Zhang Guozhu grimaced. If you were just an employee, we wouldn't even be alive.

"Alright, alright, thank you, Mr. Lin."

Xu Wen led Zhang Guozhu to one side, and Lin Yi didn't get involved too much.

What happened next was up to them.

But the other couriers in the room couldn't sit still.

"Xiao Yi, you didn't threaten him, did you?" Sun Qiang stepped forward and said.

"It's a harmonious society now; we can't do that."

"How could I? Just a business discussion, no threats involved."

"Then why does he call you Mr. Lin, and why did he come to the door himself?"

"I used to be a troublemaker, maybe he knows what I did in the past." Lin Yi made up an excuse.

"You're quite something." Sun Qiang laughed. "Looks like you were quite the troublemaker in the past, but it's good to change for the better."

"Brother Qiang is right."

The two chatted casually, but Li Xin, standing nearby, was getting nervous.

To have the other party's boss come to the door himself, how powerful must you have been in the past?

I've been mocking him all this time, and he didn't even touch me. I must have been lucky.

Thinking about it made him shudder.

On the other side, Xu Wen and Zhang Guozhu didn't talk for long.

In less than ten minutes, they saw him off.

"What price did he give?" Lin Yi asked.

"Four yuan and thirty cents per item."

"That means there's still a 10% kickback."

"He didn't ask for a kickback, just gave this price."

"Nice, he didn't even ask for a kickback. The boss is impressive."

Xu Wen rolled her eyes. "What does it have to do with me? He came for your sake, Mr. Lin~~~"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, your 'Mr. Lin' doesn't sound as good as others'."

"Go away, I won't use that flirty tone." Xu Wen said.

"With so many more packages every day, we need to hire two more people."

"One should be enough. The two stores are combined, and the staff is still sufficient. One more should be fine."

"I need to reserve one for you." Xu Wen said. "If you leave one day, I'll have to hire again. Might as well hire two now."

"You have a point." Lin Yi said. "I have something to do tomorrow and won't be coming to the store for a while."

"Huh? Are you quitting?" Xu Wen looked at Lin Yi in surprise. "I didn't mean to drive you away."

"I know, but I really can't stay much longer." Lin Yi said. "At least a month, so we need to start hiring."

"Will we see each other again?"

"I'm just busy with my own things, not dead. Why wouldn't we see each other?"

Hearing this, Xu Wen realized she was overreacting.

"Don't say such unlucky things, go to work."

"Alright." Lin Yi said. "I won't be scanning codes this afternoon. I'll finish by delivering the last batch of packages."

"Fine, do what you want. I won't stop you."

"OK."

According to Lin Yi's plan, when he lands on the island, the cargo ship will be in port, completing this stage of the system task.

Staying here longer would be meaningless, so it's better to move on.

Both of them tacitly didn't tell anyone about his departure.

In the afternoon, Lin Yi finished his deliveries, then rode his tricycle to his old delivery area.

For Lin Yi, this company was quite interesting.

It was like immersing himself in the lives of ordinary people.

And this was exactly the kind of life Lin Yi enjoyed.

What he didn't know was that this was healing his heart.

The world was chaotic and noisy, and the unknown fear was washing over his heart.

This was his way of healing.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be himself anymore.

Around 5 PM, Lin Yi finished all his deliveries.

By 6 PM, the collection truck arrived, and the staff loaded the packages. The day's work was officially over.

Lin Yi and Xu Wen stayed to clean up, undisturbed.

"I won't be coming tomorrow, let's have a hug."

"Sure."

Lin Yi stepped forward and hugged Xu Wen, who hugged him tightly.

"If it weren't for you, the store's business wouldn't have developed to this point. It might not even continue."

"Good things come to those who wait. Even if you did it yourself, it probably wouldn't be much different."

"Don't flatter me. I know my level."

"Your D-cup level, you definitely know better than me."

"Go away, get out of here, you're not serious."

Xu Wen looked at Lin Yi and asked:

"You're leaving, I have something I've always wanted to ask."

"You want to know what I do?"

"Smart." Xu Wen said.

"You don't have to tell me if you don't want to, no pressure."

"There's nothing I don't want to tell. It's not something to be ashamed of." Lin Yi said.

"I have a few companies, but it's nothing special. We're not fundamentally different, just in scale."

"You must be a millionaire, right?" Xu Wen said.

"Anyway, you're definitely not short of money. Don't try to fool me."

"A millionaire is a bit inaccurate, more like a billionaire."

"Huh? A billionaire?"

"Something like that."

Xu Wen's eyes widened, at a loss for words.

"I actually had a billionaire work for me?"

"Doesn't that make you feel accomplished? Ha ha."

"Not just a little. Even novels wouldn't write it this way."

"Life isn't just about making money." Lin Yi said.

"Once you've made enough, you can relax a bit."

"But your way of relaxing is really unique."

"Everyone is different, can't generalize."

"You're right. If you were like us ordinary people, you wouldn't be a billionaire."

"Don't take this label too seriously." Lin Yi said.

"If you come across any good projects in the future, you can call me. I'll invest."

"No money-making projects, but there's another one."

"What project? Tell me."

"I want to have a child. Will you invest in this project?"
