Chapter 29 This Is Demigod
"Wang Tao, what do you mean?"
Chen Yinuo was not a fool. There was an underlying meaning in Wang Tao's words as well as those colleagues' gazes too. How could she not discern that? How could she not feel that?
At that moment, her eyes instantly became red. Unable to hold herself back, she called Wang Tao by his full name.
"I meant nothing. Team Leader Chen, I just said that you're rather competent and able. Ha! Ha!"
He emphasized the word, "competent".
Sneering, Wang Tao turned around and left.
"He's talking nonsense. It's nothing like what he said!"
The moment Wang Tao had left, Chen Yinuo, who was in the middle of those peculiar gazes, immediately explained.
"Hmm, we understood!"
Those colleagues claimed that they understood it.
But their strange expressions showed none other than their disapprovals.
If Wang Tao did not mention that, they might not make the connection and thought of that aspect.
But after Wang Tao brought that up, others immediately believed that Chen Yinuo must have gotten acquainted with the idle president of Yun Shan Network.
As for how she hooked up with that president, it was none other than that particular affair. Everyone knew that.
Otherwise, how could one explain why Chen Yinuo could gain that contract? How could one explain why Yun Shan Network had designated that they would only accept the contract managed by Chen Yinuo in the future? How could one explain why it was the signature of Zhang Jingshan, the president of Yun Shan Network, on that contract? How could one explain why Chen Yinuo was promoted to be the head of the business cooperation team without any warning?
There must be something fishy about it since it was something unusual.
It seemed like it was most probably Zhang Jingshan, the president of Yun Shan Network, who had told the boss of Hua Xing Commerce about it given that Chen Yinuo was promoted to be the head of the business cooperation team.
In contrast, Chen Yinuo felt much aggrieved under those peculiar gazes and their understanding.
How could she not know what they were thinking about inwardly?
However, she felt that it was to no avail even if she explained more under the current circumstance. On the contrary, it would become worse.
Unless she resigned to prove her innocence. But if she did that, that refined rascal would have his wish granted. And how were Youyou and she going to survive?
No. She had to prove herself with her strength. She had to use her strength to prove to everyone that it was a wise choice for the company to promote her to be the head of the business cooperation team.
...
Jin Lin Mansion.
The Land Rover stopped.
Except for Ye Chen.
Both Zhang Jingshan and Li Changfeng were stunned.
It was because there was a mass crowd in the tent that was built temporarily outside the sales department in front of them.
It was a noisy crowd with long queues.
Surprisingly, the people went there to buy houses.
It was vastly different from the condition three days ago where it was completely deserted.
The developer even held up a banner to hold a lottery session at two o'clock in the afternoon. Those people with asset verification, who were able to pay in full amounts, were given priorities.
A few days ago, it was the kind of real estate that no one cared about. But now, the people who were unable to pay in full amount had to step aside.
"Mr. Ye, have we come to Jin Lin Mansion?"
Zhang Jingshan asked in a daze.
He knew that after last night's press conference, Jin Lin Mansion would become the most famous neighborhood in the entire Jiang Zhou.
But he did not expect that it would become so popular.
"It can only be said that people have now no lack of foresight in real estate. I'm not at all surprised by this scene. For a long time to come, it'll be hard to get a house in Jin Lin Mansion!" said Ye Chen.
"Mr. Ye, may I take the liberty and ask you about one thing? How did you know that the houses in Jin Lin Mansion will rise to popularity dramatically? Did you have any inside story?" Zhang Jingshan hesitated and raised the doubt which had troubled him for a long time.
"There's no inside story. It's just my instinct. I always trust my instinct!"
Ye Chen calmly walked forward.
It was too far-fetched to claim that it was his instinct.
But he did not care at all if Zhang Jingshan and Li Changfeng believed him or not.
"I know that it must be instinct again!" Zhang Jingshan's lips twitched.
"How is that instinct? It's demigod!" Li Changfeng, who had come forward to enjoy the scene, chimed in.
Both of them hurriedly caught up with Ye Chen's footsteps.
However, they had just taken a few steps.
Zhang Jingshan noticed that there was something wrong.
Ye Chen was not rushing toward the large entrance of the sales department.
But he was walking toward the group of people who were queuing to get their numbers.
"Mr. Ye, the sales department is over there. Aren't we going to pay now?" Feeling puzzled, Zhang Jingshan hurriedly asked.
"What are we going to pay for?" asked Ye Chen.
Zhang Jingshan appeared stunned. "To pay and buy the houses!"
"Who told you that I want to buy them? I came to sell the deposit order!" said Ye Chen.
Both Zhang Jingshan and Li Changfeng were rendered speechless.
Ye Chen did not explain much to them.
He glued his gaze on a middle-aged couple who appeared to not lack money at first glance.
"I asked you to come early, but you didn't listen to me. It's good now. How long are we going to queue here?" The noble lady, who was dressed extravagantly, raised multiple complaints.
"How would I know that it'll become so popular? I don't understand. How come a house of thirty or forty thousand per square meter is just like the cabbage in the market? It's become so popular?" said the middle-aged man.
"Alright, stop talking so much. Don't you have a friend who knows the developer of Jin Lin Mansion? Hurry up and ask your friend to make use of his connection. Try and ask if we can get the priority. The house is not important. We do not need a place to stay. But the degree from the foreign language school is the top priority!" said the lady.
"It's useless. I called him this early morning. He contacted the president of Jin Lin Mansion too. Many people want to make use of their connections to gain priorities. It can't be done. So, everyone is to be treated equally! Why don't we head home first? We'll come and take a look after this peak period!" said the middle-aged man.
In that instant, they heard a voice beside them.
"I'm afraid that it won't be thirty or forty thousand per square meter after this peak period. Besides, it'll only get harder to buy one of those houses!"
Hmm?
The middle-aged couple turned around and looked over.
"Why did you say that? What's your job?"
Seeing that Ye Chen did not appear like he was someone who was able to afford a house in Jin Lin Mansion given his attire, they could not help but frown.
"You can regard me as a scalper!" Smiling, Ye Chen said so.
"Scalper? Are you saying that you have got the houses of Jin Lin Mansion?" The noble lady widened her eyes happily.
"I don't have the houses. But I have got a deposit order. I can resell it to you."
As he was speaking, Ye Chen handed over a deposit order. "Why don't you take a look?"
He immediately accepted it.
"No, Mr. Ye. Are you trying to resell that deposit order? Why didn't you say that earlier? You can just sell it to me. Why do you have to go and look for a client?"
Seeing that, Zhang Jingshan was enlightened. He became anxious too.
He finally understood why Ye Chen had to demand a deposit order that could be resold.
Ye Chen just wanted to resell that deposit order, right?
No. If he indeed wanted to resell that, wouldn't it be better if he resold the house and earned a great lump sum after he had bought it?
How much could one earn from reselling the deposit order?
"Mr. Ye, Jingshan was right. If you've insufficient funds, I can help you buy that house first. If you're unwilling, you can resell it to me at a high price!" Li Changfeng caught up to them and said so.
"Hey! Hey! Hey! First come, first served. What do you guys want?"
The noble lady, who was too busy to care if he was a helper or not, became anxious.
After that, she was worried that Ye Chen might change his mind. So, she hurriedly said, "Mr. Ye, right? We want your deposit order. How much is it? Name your price. We'll pay you right away after we've gone to the sales department and finish the reselling procedures."
That deposit order showed that the owner could resell it. Besides, the unit price of that house would be reduced by fifty percent if its price was more than eight thousand.
Moreover, that house was located in the building where the largest and best house was. That particular building was also the most prestigious.
If they could gain that deposit order, not only could they cease queueing up to wait for the lottery session, they could also buy the best and the most prestigious house at a relatively lower price.
One would never miss that kind of chance...
