In just two short days.
Huizi had already taken care of all the necessary paperwork.
All that was left was for Lin Feng to personally fill out a form once the approval came through.
Once again, Lin Feng was impressed by Huizi’s outstanding efficiency.
Huizi was truly methodical in her work.
She was able to get things done with the utmost speed and efficiency.
This left Lin Feng very satisfied with her abilities.
"You’ve worked hard on this."
"You did a great job!"
Lin Feng said with satisfaction, looking at the contract in his hand that had been approved for the maximum loan amount.
Huizi smiled slightly. "I should be thanking you, Mr. Lin, for giving me this opportunity."
Huizi was, of course, referring to the major real estate deal from before.
Lin Feng nodded, put away the contract, and placed it on the table beside him.
"Have you found a job yet?"
Hearing Lin Feng’s question, Huizi was a little baffled.
However, she answered truthfully, "I haven’t found a related job just yet."
Lin Feng nodded and looked Huizi straight in the eye as he made his offer. "Right now, I’m in need of an assistant. I was wondering if you might be interested?"
"As for compensation, I’ll pay the standard market rate..."
As Lin Feng spoke, Huizi’s eyes widened in shock.
She never imagined that Lin Feng would actually offer her a job.
For a moment, Huizi felt a surge of panic.
She had no idea what ability of hers he had taken a liking to.
That he would be willing to extend a helping hand.
You have to understand, because she had quit so abruptly, she hadn’t received much of a commission, even after closing such a huge deal.
After factoring in some other miscellaneous deductions...
Huizi was in such a tight spot that she couldn’t even scrape together next month’s rent.
During this time, Huizi had also tried to find other work.
But it seemed her luck had run out; her job search was met with constant rejection.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have had so much free time to prepare the documents and proof for Lin Feng.
Receiving Lin Feng’s invitation at a time like this...
...was nothing short of a lifesaver for Huizi.
So, before Lin Feng could even get a few more words out, Huizi was already nodding her head in agreement.
"Mr. Lin, do you really trust me?"
"Because I... I don’t have any prior experience as an assistant..."
Dizzy from having this opportunity dropped in her lap, Huizi was genuinely worried she wouldn’t be up to the task.
Especially since Huizi was well aware of Lin Feng’s financial standing.
To work as an assistant and secretary for a boss with such immense wealth...
Huizi was now only worried that her professional skills might not meet Lin Feng’s standards.
Besides, when you apply for a job, the boss is supposed to interview and evaluate you.
Although Huizi was grateful to Lin Feng for offering a helping hand at this crucial moment...
...she was even more concerned that she wasn’t qualified for the position.
Lin Feng gave a faint smile. "You successfully completed the task I gave you before."
"Don’t worry."
"I don’t just hire anyone."
"If you didn’t have any ability, I could spend the same amount of money and easily find someone more capable..."
What Lin Feng said was a bit harsh, but that was the reality of the world.
And hearing him put it that way, Huizi gradually began to relax.
Indeed, for someone like Lin Feng...
...offering the same salary would attract a flood of applicants lining up for the job.
He would have no reason to choose someone with no experience or ability.
Thinking about it that way, Huizi’s confidence in herself grew.
’I feel energized about the future again!’
"Don’t you worry."
"I’ll definitely meet your requirements and standards and become a qualified assistant and secretary!"
Huizi looked at Lin Feng, her eyes shining.
"However, I’ll be spending most of my time in Yang City from now on. Can you accept a change like that?"
Lin Feng thought for a moment and made a point to mention it in advance.
Huizi nodded without hesitation. "Mr. Lin, don’t worry. I don’t have any major requirements for the work location."
Lin Feng nodded in satisfaction. "I’ll probably be heading back to Yang City in a day or two."
"You should spend the next couple of days packing, then report for duty in Yang City!"
"Your main workplace in Yang City will be an investment firm. I’ll give you two or three days to get settled."
After giving her the instructions, Lin Feng was about to leave.
However, Huizi thought for a moment and stopped him. "Excuse me, Mr. Lin, there’s one more thing..."
Lin Feng looked at Huizi, who had opened a chat window on her phone.
"It’s like this... when I was handling the paperwork, I ran into Aunt Tang, the former landlady of the shop."
"Aunt Tang found out I was working on something related to a loan..."
"And then she also found out that you, Mr. Lin, have an investment firm."
"So, lately, she seems to have been beating around the bush, asking me questions about the investment firm."
Before Huizi could finish, Lin Feng understood Aunt Tang’s intentions.
He recalled how Aunt Tang had previously mentioned wanting to invest her own money.
"That’s fine."
"If she asks about things like relevant data and rates of return, just tell Aunt Tang the truth."
"You’re about to be my assistant and secretary, so there are a few things I need to tell you."
"Right now, the investment firm is still in its initial stages and needs a large influx of capital."
"For my firm, Aunt Tang is a potential client."
Some things didn’t need to be spelled out; Huizi already understood.
This was something of a happy accident.
Besides, it was Aunt Tang who had initiated the inquiries herself.
"Mr. Lin, rest assured, I know what to do."
Huizi nodded and took back her phone.
"If the conversation gets more serious, you can promise Aunt Tang a two percent rate of return."
Lin Feng said after a moment’s thought.
Huizi was a bit surprised. "Two percent?"
"Over six months?"
Lin Feng smiled. "Within two months."
Although Huizi didn’t play the stock market...
...she had studied some finance-related subjects in college.
So she still had some understanding of these matters.
A two percent rate of return was terrifyingly high.
For example, if Aunt Tang really did end up investing...
...and let’s say she invested ten million...
...achieving a two percent rate of return in two months...
...would mean a net profit of two hundred thousand in just those two months!
That was enough for a down payment on a house in a third-tier city.
Not to mention, given Aunt Tang’s major move of selling her properties...
...her final investment amount would surely be no less than the ten-million-yuan mark.
That rate of return was enough to make even Huizi’s heart race.
"I will have a good talk with Aunt Tang."
Huizi’s heart swelled with excitement.
