Chapter 3194: Chapter 3186: I Have a Proposal for You

"Hmm?"

Xu Wen was stunned.

Just now they were talking about giving a kickback, and he didn’t agree, but now he came to them on his own accord.

And he said she could set the price as she pleased.

What kind of operation is this?

"This doesn’t seem quite right, does it?"

"Nothing wrong with it, as long as Master Lin doesn’t hold it against me," Zhang Guozhu said nervously.

Lin Yi scratched his head, feeling a bit baffled.

Damn, he hadn’t done anything, nor revealed his identity, so how did this guy recognize him?

"What’s there to hold against? If you really want to talk, just talk to our boss; I’m just a worker."

Zhang Guozhu forced a smile, thinking if you’re a worker, then we might as well not exist.

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

Xu Wen took Zhang Guozhu aside, and Lin Yi didn’t get too involved.

How they discussed things later was between the two of them.

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

"Lin Yi, you didn’t threaten him, did you?" Sun Qiang came forward and said:

"We’re in a harmonious society now; we can’t do that kind of thing."

"How could I? I just went out for a business talk; there’s no such thing as threats."

"Then why did he call you Master Lin and even come to us first?"

"I used to be a hooligan; maybe he found out what I did before," Lin Yi made up.

"You’re something, aren’t you," Sun Qiang laughed, "Seems like you were quite the figure back then, but it’s good you’ve turned a new leaf."

"Brother Qiang is right."

The two chatted back and forth, but on the side, Li Xin listened with a pounding heart.

To have a leader on the other side come to him on his own, how formidable was he back then?

He had always been mocking him, yet he never retaliated; how lucky he was.

Thinking about it made him afraid.

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

In less than ten minutes, they’d sent him off.

"What price did they offer?" Lin Yi asked.

"Four yuan three per piece."

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

"They didn’t ask for a kickback; they just gave this price straightforwardly."

"Not bad, they didn’t even ask for a kickback, the boss is mighty."

Xu Wen rolled her eyes at Lin Yi, "What does it have to do with me? They came because of you, Master Lin~~~"

"Tsk tsk tsk, the way you say Master Lin doesn’t sound as nice as when others say it."

"Go, go, go, I can’t do that flirty tone," Xu Wen said:

"We have so many more orders every day, we need to hire two more people."

"One should be enough; with the two stores merged, we have enough staff, adding another would be fine."

"Don’t I need to reserve one for you?" Xu Wen said:

"In case you leave one day, I’d have to hire again, might as well hire two now."

"You’re thinking it through," Lin Yi said:

"I happen to have some things to do tomorrow, so I won’t be coming to the shop for a while."

"Hmm? Are you resigning?" Xu Wen looked at Lin Yi in surprise, "I didn’t mean to drive you away."

"I know, but really, I can’t work much longer anyway," Lin Yi said:

"At least I can’t come back for a month; hiring’s got to be on the agenda."

"Will we still be able to meet later?"

"I’m just going to deal with some personal stuff, I’m not dead, why wouldn’t we meet?"

Only when Lin Yi said this did Xu Wen realize she was making a fuss over nothing.

"Don’t say such unlucky words, get to work."

"No problem," Lin Yi said:

"I won’t be here to scan codes this afternoon, let’s end well with one last delivery."

"Alright, do whatever you want, I’m not stopping you."

"OK."

According to Lin Yi’s plan, by the time he set foot on the island, the cargo ship should almost be at port, completing this stage of the system task.

Staying here any longer had no point, it made sense to end it here.

Regarding his resignation, both of them tacitly didn’t tell anyone.

In the afternoon, after Lin Yi had sorted out his deliveries, he rode his tricycle to his old area.

For Lin Yi, this company was still quite interesting.

It counts as fully immersing in the life of ordinary people.

And this kind of life is exactly what Lin Yi liked.

What he didn’t know is that it was precisely this kind of work that was healing his heart.

This chaotic and noisy world, the unknown fears washing over his soul.

This was his way of healing himself.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t be himself anymore.

By a bit past five in the evening, Lin Yi had delivered all the packages.

By six or so, the pickup truck arrived, and the people in the store loaded the parcels onto the truck, marking the official end of the workday.

Lin Yi and Xu Wen stayed behind to clean up, not bothering anyone.

"I won’t be here tomorrow, how about a hug?"

"Alright."

Lin Yi stepped forward and hugged Xu Wen, and she warmly embraced him back.

"Without you, the shop’s business definitely wouldn’t have come this far, and whether it could continue would be uncertain."

"Good things happen to good people; even on your own, you would’ve done fine over time."

"Don’t flatter me, I know my own level."

"D-cup level, you know that better than I do."

"Go, go, go, you’re never serious."

Xu Wen looked at Lin Yi and asked:

"You’re leaving, there’s something I’ve always wanted to ask."

"You’re curious about what I actually do?"

"Smart," Xu Wen said:

"But if you don’t want to answer, that’s fine, no need to push."

"There’s nothing I mind sharing, it’s not like it’s something shady," Lin Yi said:

"Got a few companies under me, and that’s about it, fundamentally, there’s no difference between us, just the scale."

"You’ve got your own companies, you must be a multimillionaire," Xu Wen said:

"You definitely don’t lack money, don’t try to fool me."

"Multimillionaire is a bit imprecise, probably more like multi-billionaire."

"Hmm? Multi-billionaire?"

"That’s about right."

Xu Wen stared wide-eyed, at a loss for words.

"I actually had a multi-billionaire working for me?"

"Doesn’t it feel accomplished? Haha."

"It’s more than a bit; even novels wouldn’t dare write this."

"A person can’t spend their whole life just making money," Lin Yi said:

"When you’ve made enough, it’s time to take a breather."

"But your way of relaxing is truly unique."

"Everyone’s different, can’t generalize."

"True, if you were just like us ordinary folks, you wouldn’t be a multi-billionaire,"

"Don’t pay too much attention to that label," Lin Yi said:

"If you come across any good projects later, feel free to call me, I’ll invest."

"Nothing that makes money, but there is a different kind of project."

"What project? Let’s hear it."

"Thinking about having a kid, would you invest in that project?"
