Meanwhile.
Lin Feng invested the one hundred million yuan he received from unlocking Su Ruoxi’s Character Card into the stock market.
He also threw in the funds from his recent Money Blessings and the balance in his system’s account.
This sum of over one hundred million was Lin Feng’s personal capital.
He was simply using the company as a channel to invest in the stock market.
Lin Feng did some quick math.
Based on the trends for the coming week, his investment of over one hundred million would likely generate a profit of nearly forty million by next week.
At this moment, Lin Feng couldn’t help but remark, "It seems having a large principal is great. Just one quick trade... and I’ve earned quite a bit!"
There was no denying it; Lin Feng had become extremely adept at playing the stock market.
As for Huizi, she had witnessed Lin Feng’s massive trades time and time again.
She had also seen how every single stock transaction yielded a profit of nearly seven percent.
Faced with this phenomenon, Huizi had grown accustomed to it.
Or perhaps, she had long since become numb to the shock.
After half a month of hard work, Lin Feng could clearly feel that the investment company was getting on the right track.
Therefore, Lin Feng decided to divert some of the funds today.
Some were given to the long-term investment project team.
The rest were handed over to the newly established business department for investments in real estate and other enterprises.
Although Lin Feng still held onto a large amount of capital for quick, short-term stock market trades, his primary role was now simply to steer the ship.
Because of this, he and Yang Qinian were not as busy as when the company had just been established.
Now, when the two of them came to the company, it was often just to handle a few important matters.
This was for the best, because starting this week, their course load at school began to increase.
So, Lin Feng and Yang Qinian were about to begin a busy life, running back and forth between school and the company.
Before leaving the company today, Lin Feng suddenly called Huizi into his office.
Huizi was initially a little worried she had done something wrong with her work.
But after Lin Feng sat down, he got straight to the point. "How is that matter I asked you to look into?"
Huizi then had a moment of realization.
’No wonder Lin Feng looked for me as I was about to leave work. He wants to ask how that private task he gave me is progressing.’
Huizi took out her USB drive.
She copied a file onto Lin Feng’s computer.
"This is what you asked me to investigate, Mr. Lin."
"I’ve gathered some general information on this company. Its business operations were in good shape for several years."
"You could say it was a very profitable enterprise in the local real estate industry."
"However, in the last year or two, some management issues have appeared within Dingsheng Real Estate."
"They’ve been trying to make adjustments, but based on my observations of their financial reports, their profits have indeed decreased significantly."
"If this continues, they’re bound to run into some cash flow problems."
This was just Huizi’s bold guess.
After all, she wasn’t exactly an expert on this matter.
So, these were conclusions she had reached only after investigating through various channels.
Lin Feng took the file and glanced over it carefully. He then looked up, a hint of approval in his eyes. "You’ve done very well in such a short amount of time."
"You can put your other work at the company aside for now. Help me keep a close eye on this."
"If any new developments occur, you must notify me immediately. I have other plans."
A cold glint flashed in Lin Feng’s eyes as he gave Huizi these specific instructions.
Although Huizi didn’t know what kind of history Lin Feng had with this company, she was more than willing to help with any task he assigned.
"Don’t worry, Mr. Lin. I definitely won’t disappoint you!"
Huizi nodded with a smile.
Lin Feng had great faith in Huizi’s competence.
He informed Yang Qinian about the adjustment to Huizi’s duties.
Yang Qinian had no objections to the matter; after all, Huizi was Lin Feng’s secretarial assistant.
"Come on, Brother Feng. We have an evening class at school tonight," Yang Qinian said to Lin Feng, letting out a yawn.
"Why do you look so listless?"
Lin Feng asked, leaning in closer to Yang Qinian curiously.
Yang Qinian rubbed his tired eyes and said, "I’ve gotten used to the company’s schedule. Suddenly having to go to class again feels a little strange."
Lin Feng patted Yang Qinian’s shoulder and said, "Well, you’d better get used to it. Our days are going to be like this from now on."
While sitting in Lin Feng’s car, Yang Qinian rubbed his eyes, preparing to take a nap.
But suddenly, he heard Lin Feng ask from beside him, "A week’s gone by. How’s that fifty million in your hands doing?"
The moment stocks were mentioned, Yang Qinian’s eyes lit up.
He wasn’t sleepy anymore.
"Honestly, I think it’s going well. Although Vice President Li and the others took over for a bit in the middle,"
"but I was still involved in most of the trades with that fifty million."
"The profits have been pretty good."
A huge smile spread across Yang Qinian’s face.
Lin Feng glanced at Yang Qinian, then looked straight ahead and suddenly said, "Actually, that fifty million... it was an investment in you from your father."
"Uncle Yang used this fifty million to let you practice and grow..."
Lin Feng’s voice carried a faint but profound meaning.
And Yang Qinian was suddenly stunned.
"S-So... that’s how it was!"
Yang Qinian suddenly realized there were things he hadn’t noticed before.
’No wonder Lin Feng just handed me the fifty million back then. He must have had good intentions, passing the money from Dad directly to his son to manage. It was exactly as Dad had planned—to use fifty million to let me get some practice, to give me a chance to learn from my mistakes.’
Yang Qinian suddenly realized his father wasn’t as strict with him as he thought.
In many ways, Yang Tianming was a very open-minded father.
’Perhaps fathers just have a more reserved way of showing their affection.’
While Yang Qinian was lost in silent contemplation, Lin Feng had already driven the car onto campus.
Just as they arrived at the dormitory building, they saw Cao Ming and Jiang Chao coming out with books.
"I brought your books down for you two. Let’s go."
Cao Ming shoved the books into Yang Qinian’s and Lin Feng’s hands.
The four dorm mates headed toward the classroom.
Naturally, they chatted a lot along the way.
Lin Feng noticed that Yang Qinian had managed to adjust his mood well.
He wasn’t silent like he had been in the car.
"After this evening class, we can go grab a late-night snack. The timing is just perfect."
Cao Ming had recently fallen in love with the snack street next to the school.
He ate there three meals a day, and he wouldn’t even pass up a late-night snack.
"You should eat a little less. Your face is already getting round."
Jiang Chao, who was beside him, threw cold water on Cao Ming’s enthusiasm.
Cao Ming scratched his head. "If you’re so principled, then don’t eat any of my grilled skewers!"
Lin Feng watched the two of them bickering playfully beside him.
He felt the warmth and bustle of everyday life wash over him.
After their evening class ended, Cao Ming, as expected, enthusiastically invited everyone to join him for a late-night snack on the food street.
Lin Feng didn’t have anything else going on.
He’d also heard Cao Ming hype up the barbecue stall there, making it sound legendary.
So, he pulled Yang Qinian along and followed Cao Ming to the snack street.
But halfway there,
the four of them suddenly spotted two familiar faces standing under a streetlight.
