Suppressing the Protagonist in the Start to Seize the Heroine

Chapter 90: Xiaoyu’s Far-reaching Vision

Why did you come here, Su Lin? Xiaoyu asked, surprised yet happy to see Su Lin. She knew about Su Lin and Lin Xiaowans relationship, but Lin Xiaowan still thought Xiaoyu was unaware.

Su Lin wrapped his arm around Xiaoyus waist, Of course, to see my Xiaoyu.

Hehe, did Xiaowan send you away? Xiaoyu asked, half-joking.

How could she send me away? Su Lin responded.

Xiaoyu nodded knowingly, With your little antics, Xiaowan surely must have chased you out. After saying this, Xiaoyu playfully slapped Su Lins hand.

Er What antics? Hows the companys finances? Su Lin asked, sitting in Xiaoyus chair and pulling her to sit with him.

Well! The supermarkets daily turnover has crossed a million, nearing two million on the busiest day. I calculated that our monthly profit is at least twenty million, Xiaoyu explained, admiringly looking at Su Lin.

Hehe, twenty million a month, over a billion a year, just from one supermarket. Its unbelievable, Su Lin remarked.

Xiaoyu agreed, If I wasnt directly involved, I wouldnt believe a supermarket could make a billion in a year.

Su Lin thought its no wonder retail industries loved opening supermarkets due to the huge profits.

Daxia Bank called, suggesting we store our funds with them, Xiaoyu reported.

Did you agree? Su Lin asked.

Of course not, Im just the finance manager, youre the big boss, Xiaoyu said, poking Su Lin playfully.

Youre the bosss wife; what do you think we should do? Su Lin asked, raising his eyebrow.

I think we should wait before agreeing. When the company expands in Donghai, Linhai, Modu, and Sucheng, well need a lot of money. We could negotiate a partnership with them beforehand and get an interest-free loan to ease the pressure, Xiaoyu suggested.

You once said well burn millions daily in a price war with other companies, so our current earnings wont be enough.

Su Lin ruffled Xiaoyus hair, impressed, Youre amazing, Xiaoyu, thinking so far ahead.

Hehe, youre the visionary. I just expanded on your ideas. And you said a successful company should owe money to the bank.

Su Lin nodded, Exactly. With our current revenue and cash flow, any bank would welcome us, so lets keep them waiting and get a larger interest-free loan later.

Yeah, Zhongjiang is also offering enterprise support funds this year, worth millions. We could apply for that too, Xiaoyu added.

Su Lin teased, Youre so good at managing money, Xiaoyu, considering everything. Truly a wise partner.

Not really Xiaowan is the real wise partner. I can only help you spend money well, but Xiaowan can help you save, Xiaoyu modestly said.

Dont sell yourself short. Xiaowan is great, and so are you, no less than her, Su Lin reassured.

Xiaoyu felt warm inside hearing Su Lins words, hugging him sweetly. Su Lin, Xiaoyu, time for lunch.

Oh, coming! Xiaoyu hurriedly got up and checked around.

You dont need to be so nervous, Xiaowan wont make a big deal even if she sees something, Su Lin said with a light laugh.

Lin Xiaowans affection for him was already at 99, a threshold. Su Lin knew that if it were anyone else, she would have been furious, but with Xiaoyu, she would likely glare at him, not Xiaoyu.

Xiaoyu didnt listen to Su Lin, instead opening the door, Xiaowan, whats for lunch?

I dont know, weve tried almost all the snack shops in Zhongjiang, Lin Xiaowan said, somewhat troubled. Su Lin, why dont you choose what we have for lunch?

Hearing the suggestion, Su Lin casually responded, Lets have home-cooked dishes then. Xiaowan, Xiaoyu, what do you think?

No problem at all.

I think its fine.

Should we invite Chen Yang too?

Su Lin shook his head, No need. Hes still in Tangbei District, probably wont be back at the company until late.

Chen Yang had already found locations for the remaining six stores, three of which were already purchased, and the other three were in negotiation. Now such matters could be handled by Chen Yangs team without Lin Xiaowans intervention.

Speaking of which, Xiaowan, Xiaoyu, youve both been busy for so long, and I havent even paid you yet. Looking at Xiaoyu, Su Lin said, Xiaoyu, draft our salaries later, lets tentatively set it at twice the store managers salary.

Really, Su Lin? Can I get a salary too? Xiaoyu asked excitedly.

Su Lin nodded, Of course. Youve been busy for so long without pay, thats not fair. The company is doing well, we definitely cant miss your salaries.

Lin Xiaowan also smiled. Though she never thought about getting a salary for working with Su Lin, his mention of it now made her happy. It was their first time receiving a formal paycheck.

Xiaoyu, when do we pay the employees?

Chen Yang set it for the 10th of every month.

Lets go shopping with our first salary right after the college entrance exam, on the 10th next month. How about that?

Sounds great! Where shall we go, Donghai?

The nearest city to Zhongjiang was Donghai, large and lively.

Lets not go to Donghai. Since were already planning to move there, how about Suzhou or Modu? Its just a few hours drive, Lin Xiaowan suggested.

Su Lin smiled, No rush, we still have time before the college entrance exams. We can decide later. Mm-hmm~!!

The three of them headed downstairs together, with Su Lin thinking about the protagonist in Donghai still waiting for him. Since Lin Tian was set on bringing him down, Su Lin knew he couldnt deal with him as simply as he did with Ye Feng.

If Lin Yourong survives, he will surely be a strong backing for Lin Tian. So, its better to let the accident happen.

Su Lin knew from the information he had gathered that Lin Tian quickly ran out to make a phone call after an exam. He felt there was a chance to make a move there.

Preventing Lin Yourong from receiving the call wasnt feasible, as it would alter his schedule and cause a butterfly effect. So, it would be easier to ensure Lin Tian couldnt make the call.

If the call failed, Lin Yourongs death would be certain, and it would seem like an accident. Without Lin Yourongs support and Zhao Yanyans help in business, Lin Tians strength would be greatly reduced, making it easier to deal with him.

Su Lin Su Lin

Ah! What is it, Xiaowan?

You seemed lost in thought. What were you thinking about?

Oh, just something on my mind. Xiaowan, did you need something?

Lin Xiaowan glared at Su Lin, her big, Cardelan eyes stirring something in his heart. I was just discussing with Xiaoyu about choosing majors for university. I wanted to know your opinion.

Su Lin shrugged, My opinion is to fully support whatever you two want to do. Ill unconditionally support any decision you both make.

Lin Xiaowan:

I should have known better than to ask. Its pointless.

Hehe.
