641: Chapter 641: Not Low-key!
Good Boss!
Mysterious miracle cure?
Nonsense!
In my system mall, that’s where the real miracle cures are.
They can cure fatal diseases like cancer and AIDS, it’s just that the price is steep.
For jerks like ng Sihua and Nangong Yao, why would Wu Jie be willing to spend a massive amount of energy points to cure them?
Give money?
No amount of money would be enough.
It’s not money I’m short of now, I won over a hundred billion Gold Coins gambling on the cruise.
Add that to the over eighty billion Gold Coins split fifty-fifty with Tang Xiao, and the several billion yuan by swindling Wang Taixiong.
All totaled up, it’s over a hundred billion in cash; so much money I couldn’t even spend it all building a highway.
But energy points…
Damn it!
Just under six hundred million!
Still a long way from the ten billion required for the system task!
What to do?
If you can’t invoke jealousy and hatred, those energy points just won’t increase!
Before, Wu Jie was a bottom-rung loser with no money, no power, no connections, even with the system I was cautious.
After all, old habits die hard.
Just like a poor person with little experience, suddenly getting a billion dollars, they probably wouldn’t even know how to spend it lavishly.
Buy houses, cars, eat well, dress well, play with won?
Besides that, what else?
Poverty limits imagination.
Even if you beco rich overnight, not only do you worry about being robbed, but going from frugality to luxury takes ti to adapt.
But now.
Wu Jie is well acquainted with the system, and has gained considerable fa and connections.
I’m not soone to be bullied or oppressed anymore; naturally, I have the capital to go big.
Just like thugs dare to steal from the common folk, but not from tycoons like Ma Yun, because they know better.
Just like before.
Wu Jie was as humble as grass, even backed by Tanglong Industrial Group and being the son-in-law of the Tianyuan Tang Family.
Even creating a hit APP software that wasn’t yet very popular, I still faced attacks and suppression.
Without the system’s blessing and a forceful counterattack relying on strength, I would have been crushed; how could I have beco popular?
But now…
Even if Wu Jie were to develop so black technology, I wouldn’t be attacked.
They know my strength and deep background; ssing with would be seeking death, wouldn’t it?
Therefore, growth is a process.
The change in mindset, growth in strength, elevation in status… all take ti.
Like a low-key recluse master, no matter how high his martial skills are, without showing up to fight a few tough battles, defeat a few renowned fighters.
How would others know to avoid provoking you?
Of course.
Wu Jie doesn’t start trouble with anyone; if no one offends , I won’t offend them.
Even if people like Hittory want to collude with the Muto Conglorate in Yincheng, what of it?
If it really cos to war, I’ll just extinguish them.
For Wu Jie, how to attract more envy and hatred, how to earn more energy points, that’s what’s most important.
Ten billion ah!
There’s still a long way to go!
For energy points, I can’t keep a low profile anymore.
Putting out his cigarette butt, Wu Jie’s brow relaxed.
“Don’t worry about Hittory and his crew at all!”
“et force with force, counter water with earth!
If they dare stir up trouble, just extinguish them!”
“On the other hand, with abundant funds, it’s ti to expand the enterprise!
And my Star Cloud Internet Technology will have a series of big moves soon…”
Before he could finish, Tang Xiao interrupted and asked,
“Do you an, you’re going to work overti at the company again?”
“I think you claim you’re working overti as a pretense; isn’t the truth that you want to have a private eting with that enchantress, Chu Yunxuan?”
Wu Jie rolled his eyes.
“Stop calling her an enchantress.
If you don’t trust that much, then let’s go work overti together!”
“Fine!
Let’s go!” Tang Xiao threw down her chopsticks, “You clean up here, and I’ll go change my clothes in the room!”
Wu Jie curled his lip, “If you didn’t want to do the dishes, you could’ve just said so, why use changing clothes as an excuse?”
Tang Xiao gave him a cold glare, and Wu Jie humd twice, imdiately getting up to clean.
Won ah!
You can’t reason with them, getting serious just ans you lose!
…
The night deepened.
Before leaving, Wu Jie called his father.
Learning that Tang Xin had brought in several attractive female waitresses, although the business was even busier than the previous night, everyone was less tired.
He then drove Tang Xiao to the company for overti, reassured.
Because it was the weekend, and the World Cup’s appeal was too powerful.
All major online platforms couldn’t keep up with the live broadcasts of the matches, and even the previously very popular big-na apps were now less sought after.
So when they arrived, they found that there were only a few night shift employees at the company.
Furthermore, the managent system optimized by Wu Jie was so strong there was no need to worry about hacks or crashes.
As a result…
The few employees were watching the ga, enjoying themselves imnsely.
They were not only using the company’s high-definition projector and surround sound system for a first-class audiovisual experience.
They also bought quite a lot of beer, stewed at, sunflower seeds, and peanuts, snacking and chatting while watching the ga.
Seeing Wu Jie and Tang Xiao, everyone toppled over in shock, almost scaring the wits out of themselves.
And as the duty leader, Wang Lei, was of course so embarrassed and ashad that he wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
However…
Wu Jie didn’t get angry.
He had been a worker himself before and hated working overti the most.
With nothing to do yet unable to leave, he would also secretly chat, play gas, and watch matches…
Putting himself in their shoes, it all seed very normal.
Of course, it was different for Tang Xiao.
Her boss-lady face turned cold in an instant.
Wu Jie’s salary isn’t low, you know!
The overti pay is quite generous, and he often hands out cash bonuses in bundles!
These people not doing their duty properly, actually watching a soccer ga…
do they deserve the remuneration Wu Jie offers them?
But before Tang Xiao could start scolding, Wu Jie just smiled faintly and gestured with his hand to lower their anxiety.
“Everyone, don’t panic, my wife and I aren’t tigers, what is there to be afraid of?”
“The company’s rules and regulations make it clear that working hours and content are flexible!”
“There’s no need to stick to a strict nine-to-five, nor is it necessary to do official business all the ti.
When there’s nothing to be done, everyone can enjoy so entertainnt!”
While joking, Wu Jie glanced at Tang Xiao.
“What’s your plan?
Do you want to go watch code, or stay here and watch the ga with them?”
“Don’t keep a straight face!
If you want to bet on the ga, go ahead, but rember to keep it small!”
With that, Wu Jie smiled and fondly pinched Tang Xiao’s cheek.
It was truly fair and tender, so soft and smooth, irresistibly lovable!
Tang Xiao, originally stern-faced and a bit angry, was quickly ‘defeated’ by Wu Jie.
Wang Lei and the other employees, upon seeing this, couldn’t help but try to suppress their laughter.
Though the single folks were struck by a sudden public display of affection, suffering ten thousand points of critical damage…
But with the boss and his wife being so loving, they also scattered a dose of ‘dog food,’ lightening up the mood and easing everyone’s fear and panic!
When Tang Xiao noticed everyone stifling their laughter, she pouted and slapped Wu Jie’s hand away.
“What are you pinching in front of everyone for?!”
“If you’re going to work overti, then hurry up.
Don’t get in the way of watching the ga with everyone!”
Upon hearing this, Wu Jie knew Tang Xiao wasn’t angry anymore.
He turned around and pointed at Wang Lei and the others.
“Just a friendly reminder, you can watch the ga, but don’t completely forget about work.
Betting is fine, but do it within your ans.”
“I don’t want to hear that the software has crashed, or that soone has gambled away everything they own!”
Having said that, Wu Jie turned and left with a graceful and composed air.
In that instant.
Applause and cheers erupted behind him.
Even chants of ‘Long live the boss’ were shouted.
My God!
Although I’m not planning to be low-key anymore, these cheers…
In response, Wu Jie shook his head and offered a sheepish smile, too lazy to reply.
He headed straight to his office and closed the door to concentrate on tinkering with his black tech.
Since the company’s boss, Wu Jie, had spoken like this.
What else could Tang Xiao say?
She instantly dropped her domineering CEO persona and beca a seasoned old soccer fan (gambler).
She pulled over a swivel chair to sit and watch the ga, her beautiful eyes glued to the big screen.
And employees like Wang Lei, of course, didn’t dare act up!
One by one, anxious and on edge, they brought over tables and laid out various snacks.
Even considering making a run for it, going back to their workstations.
“Hey hey hey, where do you think you’re going?
Do I look like a tigress to you, ready to devour you?”
“If your boss doesn’t mind, what am I to care?
Co back and sit down, let’s enjoy the ga together!”
After calling everyone back to take their seats, Tang Xiao cheerfully asked:
“Any of you betting on the ga?”
Wang Lei was the first to raise his hand.
“I bet five hundred on the sports lottery.”
“Two hundred for !”
“I…
one thousand”
…
Glaring around, they all raised their hands.
Tang Xiao was secretly amazed, marvelling to herself.
The World Cup, held only once every four years, truly is a feast for fans (and gamblers)!
On the way here, she heard the news saying that the sports lottery sales average a few hundred million a day.
And those are just the legal bets, made by regular working folks.
The real rich folks, like Tang Kun and the like, do it through interdiaries betting on international markets.
The very top tier of billionaires, they’re the ones gambling on the Super Cruise Ship Brune, partaking in ultra-high-stakes gambling starting at a hundred million Gold Coins.
Considering this, the number of people betting on soccer and the money involved worldwide every day is simply astronomical!
As for winning or losing, it’s really about luck.
“President Tang, do you bet on soccer too?” Wang Lei asked cautiously.
Tang Xiao replied without any pretense, smiling gladly:
“Of course!
But your boss is too stingy and too domineering to let handle the bets myself!”
“But he’s given a chance this ti, and I must win to show him what I’m made of!”
