Blackstone Code

Chapter 100:

"So many people are rushing to give me money, it's really troubling."

This was Lin Qi's genuine thought at this moment. Despite stating that becoming a salesman for the Interstellar Trading Company had no threshold, it would cost five bucks to secure a seat at the auction. Yet, people's enthusiasm showed no signs of waning.

This situation was quite normal. Each person was the rightful protagonist in their own world, and regardless of their joys, sorrows, or struggles, their lives seemed to follow the most reasonable script to them.

They didn't feel any abruptness; their life trajectories were clear to them, and they were the protagonists of their own stories.

In a way, this wasn't entirely wrong. Everyone was indeed the protagonist of their own story. So, there were always those who believed they were different from others, thanks to a sense of identification that had existed since consciousness emerged, making them firmly believe in this point.

They didn't think they were inferior to those who made money effortlessly. They would work harder and then succeed in reaching the pinnacle of life.

Five bucks for a seat?

Not a problem at all. Some even directly inquired about booking the entire venue!

In their eyes, even booking the entire venue would yield huge profits. With sums ranging from a few thousand to tens of thousands, there was no reason not to do so.

Actually, Lin Qi also wanted them to book the venue. However, he still needed to consider others, and it also didn't align with his interests.

"So, we need to quickly develop the business in other cities. Additionally, the municipal government will soon collaborate with us to promote our second-hand goods auction with the slogan 'Revitalize idle goods, create secondary value' across the entire state."

In the office, facing a group of revitalized young people, Lin Qi discussed the recent development plans. "You are my first group of partners and the people I trust the most. When we are ready, some of you will become managers in certain cities."

"At that time, you won't be earning your individual commissions anymore. Instead, you'll earn a commission based on the performance of the subsidiary company. I also hope you'll take responsibility for your work because what you're going to influence next isn't just yourselves but also many others who rely on you to continue surviving in society..."

Lin Qi's words instantly gripped the hearts of some people, especially Richard and Wood.

The former was a fervent supporter of Lin Qi. He supported any decision Lin Qi made, especially if those decisions could bring positive impacts to himself.

The latter, through a short period of observation, found no evidence of any criminal activity by Lin Qi.

To be honest, Wood was an outstanding young man. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been noticed by the Federal Bureau of Investigation at first glance, promoted to an undercover agent, and placed beside Lin Qi.

In the past half month, he had bonded with everyone here, and discovered that every business conducted by Lin Qi was legal; he even noticed that Lin Qi was more willing to pay taxes than anyone else, which was something he still found very hard to believe.

In school, including during the training period at the Federal Bureau of Investigation, they constantly repeated, almost brainwashing Wood, that businessmen like Lin Qi were evil, and they exploited and oppressed the people, squeezed their blood and sweat for their own profit through alleged illegal transactions and financial crimes.

But during this time following Lin Qi, Wood only saw those who followed Lin Qi getting rich and making money. Those who were kicked out weren't because they offended Lin Qi, but simply because they weren't willing to work hard.

The more he learned about Lin Qi, the more guilty he felt. On one hand, he felt betraying the Federal Bureau of Investigation and his superiors by having such thoughts. On the other hand, he enjoyed his current life.

Reading books every day with Richard and other friends, they delved into books filled with wisdom about how billionaires made their fortunes and grew.

They also discussed their dreams and their future selves.

There was a down-to-earth side and a pursuit of future and ideals!

This was more interesting and valuable than when he was undergoing rigorous training. When someone asked Lin Qi why he gave them so much in bonuses, Lin Qi told them it was a responsibility.

A society where only one person was wealthy was deformed and imperfect. Only when everyone walked the path to wealth would society tend toward perfection infinitely.

He would undoubtedly become wealthy, but he would also lift more people out of poverty, providing more job opportunities for those in need like him.

If everyone in the world had jobs they could freely choose, without exploitation or oppression, and could easily achieve financial freedom, then that was his goal and ideal!

Wealth didn't necessarily have to be full of blood-soaked exploitation. Sometimes it could also be full of love and care!

A great ideal!

The society described by Lin Qi was like an ideal kingdom, and at that moment Lin Qi was describing it, he seemed to be covered in a layer of golden light.

Wood was a young man. He didn't know whether what Lin Qi said and did could be realized, but youth meant being full of passion and eagerness for life. He was willing to believe that Lin Qi wasn't lying this time.

Moreover, Lin Qi was indeed doing so, and Wood had seen it with his own eyes. If the Interstellar Trading Company developed according to his pace, by next year, this company would provide around one to two thousand job opportunities for the entire state.

Many people who didn't understand society might think one or two thousand job opportunities were insignificant. But for Wood, who excelled academically and had studied unemployment rates, these one or two thousand job opportunities were crucial.

One job opportunity represented solving the livelihood problems of a family of at least three people, and this radiated to two more families behind them. In other words, as long as one person had a reliable job, three families could break free from despair, affecting around eight to ten people!

One or two thousand job opportunities could affect the livelihoods and survival of ten to twenty thousand people. If Lin Qi became wealthier and provided more job opportunities to make other people become wealthier too, what would this society become?

Would it really become as Lin Qi said, where everyone would have jobs, no one would worry about careers, and society would achieve stability and prosperity?

Richard glanced strangely at Wood, who had gleaming eyes, recording Lin Qi's words with a pen and notebook beside him. He felt like something was happening to this good friend and protg of his. But after rubbing his eyes to take a look at Wood again, he found that Wood was still Wood. Maybe it was just his illusion just now.

Lin Qi on stage didn't notice that he had unintentionally gained another follower. He continued discussing his upcoming development plans.

Painting a rosy picture was an important means of winning hearts during the early stages of entrepreneurship. Portraying a bright and grand future could stir people's enthusiasm.

"...Starting this week, I will accelerate the construction of some basic facilities. We will establish a logistics company exclusively owned by us, and we might even build a dedicated warehouse area. I don't really like the chaotic atmosphere in the warehouse area of Sabin City."

Wood scribbled eagerly. Logistics company, warehouse area thanks to Lin Qi, many more people would secure stable jobs. This was a social responsibility of a businessman!

Soon, Wood's excitement infected everyone in the room. According to Lin Qi's description, there was at least one billionaire, three multi-millionaires, and the rest were poor millionaires sitting here.

Were they not smart enough?

Did they lack connections?

Were they not favored by Lin Qi, the big boss?

No, it was because they weren't working hard enough. Thus, they could only be millionaires. If they could exert 120% effort, they could also become multi-millionaires, billionaires everyone seemed to believe it.

It was a small-scale chat about wealth. These young people who had just entered society immediately became staunch supporters of Lin Qi. Some even wanted to sing to express their inner excitement.

After instilling some motivational words into these young people, Lin Qi drove to a rugby club in Sabin City, where he planned to discuss the formation of a professional rugby team with the locals.

This was also a condition for him to rent the Sabin City Gymnasium. He needed to contribute to the local sports industry so that people wouldn't question his business dealings in such a sacred arena.

At the same time, this was also a great opportunity to promote the corporate image. The role of local businesses in local culture and the positive impact they brought were immeasurable!Please vote for this novel at /series/blackstone-code/There are advance chapters available nowAccess will be granted 24 hours after the donationTier 1: 5 Advance chapters Link
