Chapter 167: Registering an Account
Translator:?Sparrow Translations??Editor:?Sparrow Translations
Mr. Xiao, the manager of the brokerage firm, was a forty-plus-year-old honest-looking middle-aged man.
He politely guided Tang ng, Ling Yun, and Yao Rou into his own office to have their seats, before summoning his most capable broker agent to the room.
After exchanging formal greetings with each other, Tang ng went straight to his main point. He asserted, “Uncle Xiao, this is my buddy, Ling Yun. We are closer to each other than biological brothers. He wants to open an account here at your firm so could we maybe see what sort of good deal you have going on here?”
Tang ng made sure his stand was obvious. By emphasizing Ling Yun to be closer to him than biological brothers, he was signaling for Mr. Xiao to co up with a better-than-decent offer.
Mr. Xiao, along with his agents, glanced at Ling Yun professionally.
Ling Yun had not comnted on anything since his entry to the office. All he did was to sit casually on the sofa, caressing the hands of Yao Rou.
For soone around the age of seventeen and eighteen dressed in a loose outfit, Ling Yun did not portray the image of a son of any powerful or wealthy authority. Other than his domineering height and vibrant smile, there was nothing too unique from his appearance.
Another impression that Ling Yun left on Mr. Xiao was his casualness and his nature to treat any place as if it was his ho. He had no intention to hide his true self and identity in front of people.
Mr. Xiao proposed, “Anyways since he was introduced by Master Tang, we will definitely provide you with a larger discount. What do you think of this? For each processing fee and transaction fee, it will be charged at just 0.0002% more than that of your mum’s, is that okay?”
Tang ng’s mother was a regular custor of this firm. Over here, there was nothing she did not invest or fiddle in. From stocks to options and chips, she had a part in them all. Due to her loyal acquisition of funds through the firm, she was offered an unbelievably low administrative fee. By proposing a percentage just a little higher than that for Tang ng’s mum to a stranger like Ling Yun, Mr. Xiao had showed face to Tang ng and his mother.
“Uncle Xiao, I guessed you might have misunderstood my point.” Tang ng asserted.
The manager was shocked. So were his group of agents. Many of their other custors introduced by Tang ng’s mum had not been offered such a low percentage. What was so special about Ling Yun? Why did Tang ng fight for his privileges so enthusiastically?
“Uncle Xiao, my mother had told to invite my buddy to your office and that only ant one thing. She hoped you could offer him a percentage lower than her own.” Tang ng comnted.
From shock to a state of imnse disbelief, it took less than one second for Manager Xiao and his agents’ face to change.
Lower than hers? Wasn’t that as good as basically waiving his administration fees? What in the world…?
Up until that mont, Ling Yun had not made any comnt. All he was doing was to explore the material of the stockings Yao Rou was wearing.
‘Uncle Xiao, I understand that your firm has your own set of guidelines and rules to abide by. So how about this? You could increase the percentage from my mum’s account as a reimbursent so that your company will not suffer any losses…” Tang ng ca up with an idea.
Everyone in the room was shocked. Lest Tang ng and Ling Yun. Sacrificing your biological mother’s money just so to help your buddy clinch a lucrative deal with a minimum administrative fee? What exactly was going on between Ling Yun and Tang ng? Even Yao Rou’s eyes glittered in surprised.
“Tang ng, I’m afraid that is not possible. I’ve known your mother for so long and she has always been our regular custor. There is no the way I would do that to her!” Manager Xiao made his stand.
Seeing no other way out, Mr. Xiao looked at his agent before smiling politely back at Tang ng. “How about this, I’ll get Xiao Zhang to register an account for your buddy. As for the fee, there is no way the governnt would accept zero percentage. So, I’ll offer your buddy at a percentage of 0.0001%, half of your mum’s, is that fine with you?” Manager Xiao lowered his offer to fit Tang ng’s request.
Tang ng turned his head back to Ling Yun. Before he had left the house, Zhuang ifeng instructed Ling Yun to bargain for a lower administrative commission. Make it as low as possible.
Ling Yun was already rather satisfied with the original 0.0002% offered. Now that Tang ng had bargained it to 0.0001% for him, Ling Yun knew that was probably the limit. Thus, he looked up at Tang ng and nodded his head in agreent.
Mr. Xiao and his n were still taken aback. Since their entry, Tang ng had been talking non-stop whereas Ling Yun did not make any sound at all. In the end, their respectable Master Tang had to seek his buddy’s opinion before going on with the negotiation. Manager Xiao started to see Ling Yun in a different light.
“Mr. Ling, you have to deposit a certain amount to register for an account, how much would you like to deposit?” Xiao Zhang, a broker, asked.
Zhuang ifeng had given instructions to Ling Yun. He subsequently put his hand into his pocket to hand a cheque of a hundred million dollars to Tang ng.
“Deposit eighty million and use the remaining twenty million to buy the items on the list.” Ling Yun ordered.
The cheque that was given by Murong Feixue to Ling Yun had no registered receiver. Hence, whoever in possession of it would be able to exchange it for cash. Hence, the ti taken to complete the registration of account was shorter than expected.
After everything was settled, the trio made their way out of the firm happily. “Hey buddy, since when are you so daring to ask of the firm to increase your mum’s administrative percentage? Are you not afraid of suffering at the hands of your parents?” Ling Yun asked Tang ng.
“Buddy, it was exactly because I knew they would not dare to do it. Hence, my daring statent to the manager. If not how else could I get you such amazing terms?” Tang ng explained.
“Oh and buddy, who gave you that piece of the cheque? One hundred million dollars? Where did you get that from?” Tang ng added, after suddenly rembering about it.
He was shocked earlier when Ling Yun handed him the cheque. However, as there were outsiders present in the office, Tang ng had not asked about anything.
“I’ll tell you more about this another ti. For now, send back to school. I’ll let you guys know what to do next.” Ling Yun instructed.
En route back to school, Ling Yun explained to Tang ng and Yao Rou about the items on the lists to buy. He had also emphasized on settling the opening of the clinic as soon as possible.
Understanding Yao Rou’s eagerness to work for him, Ling Yun smiled as he felt a little grateful to her. “Alright, go and quit your internship at the hospital. You can submit your resignation letter to them tomorrow and co over to help out. As for your benefits, I’ll make sure you are happy with it!” Ling Yun comnted.
That was enough to excite Yao Rou for the rest of the day.
After alighting outside the school and realizing he still had so ti to spare, Ling Yun made an effort to return ho first.
“Hey hubby, why did you not co back with the items that are on the list?” Zhuang ifeng was curious.
“Who said I did not purchase any of them? Look!” Ling Yun sat on the sofa, put his arm around her curvy waist and showed her the card for the new account.
“One is for trading for stocks, the other for future contracts, forty million dollars in each. I’ll deposit the money in the box into the account next ti!” Ling Yun added.
“So fast?!” Zhuang ifeng was amazed by the speed of which Ling Yun got the task done.
He proceeded to let her know of the PIN for the account. “As for the items on the list you wanted to buy, I’d already tasked Tang ng to get it done. With his efficiency, the items would probably reach our place by afternoon. You’d better cover up yourself with more clothes!” Ling Yun warned his beloved girl.
Nowadays, departntal stores provide not only doorstep delivery but also assembling of the furniture and appliances for their custors. Hence, it was definitely safer than not to precaution Zhuang ifeng about her dressing at ho.
“Alright, I’m heading for a lesson now. You’ll decide where you want to have the items placed, all right?” Ling Yun told Zhuang ifeng before rushing out of the house. She did not have an opportunity to hug him, nor bid him goodbye.
“Sigh… He always leaves like this, whenever he wants to…” Zhuang ifeng sighed.
