Taking advantage of the beauty being poor, fooling her into being my girlfriend

Chapter 72 - 72 Alright, alright, alright, are you all trying to mess with my mindset?

Chapter 72: Chapter 72 Alright, alright, alright, are you all trying to mess with my mindset?

"Why don't you quit your job and come join me?"

Jiang Xu's sudden proposition left Lin Nan stunned, "What?"

Jiang Xu explained, "I have started a literary studio and haven't hired anyone yet.

Why don't you come and join me? Once the company grows, you'll be a founding member."

"Is that... Reliable?" Lin Nan was full of doubt.

Jiang Xu spoke earnestly, "Why wouldn't it be? Only ones who love literature as much as I do can succeed.

Take your current boss for instance, all he thinks about is money. How can he take the company to greater heights?

Don't you want to lead an array of authors to produce more renowned works in the future?

Don't you want to ring the bell with me when the company goes public?

Don't you want a share in a listed company in the future?"

Jiang Xu's voice was filled with charm.

The air was filled with a tantalizing hint of a feast.

But the next second, Lin Nan's reply left Jiang Xu at a loss for words.

"But my father already gave me a listed company worth billions when I turned eighteen.

That company is in the automobile parts industry, which I didn't like, so I came out to be an editor."

Jiang Xu: "???"

Alright, alright, is everyone out to mess with my mind?

No way, are all the people around me toxic?

Fu Yanjie is like this.

Wang Xiaoyuan is like this.

The future An Nuonou is like this.

And now Lin Nan too.

Is it really okay for you to do this?

Deep breath.

Jiang Xu didn't believe for a second that he wouldn't be able to persuade this rich girl who'd only been working for a short while.

His voice suddenly lowered, "Tell me, what is your dream?"

"Dream, huh... Well, I've already accomplished my dream of having money that I'll never be able to spend."

Farewell!

No way can this conversion continue.

Who would have thought, in the end, Lin Nan agreed.

Mainly because Gu Li had crossed the line this time.

She felt the company would not have a bright future under his leadership.

Better leave sooner.

However, she still had a few things to take care of on this end, so she said she could only join in about two weeks.

Fine.

While Lin Nan was still here, Jiang Xu decided to go ahead and ask for an advance on his draft fees.

Best to buy Li Honghong's house first.

After all, in a few years, the price of the house will multiply ten or twenty times over.

Lin Nan agreed instantly, saying the money would be transferred to his account within a few days.

After ending the call, Jiang Xu's eyes sparkled.

Since working with the Story Conference was no longer possible.

It was time to set up his own novel web platform.

The Point Mother was established in May 2002.

It's doing alright now, but still nowhere near its peak.

Besides, "Broken" hadn't been published yet.

That happened in 2009.

In his previous life, Jiang Xu had read "Broken" no less than ten times.

Other than his deep love for the story.

There's also the fact that the revenue from the book was overwhelmingly strong.

Even after being completed for over ten years, it still frequently made the bestseller list on Point Mother.

The book's performance on other platforms was also impressive.

Resulting in at least a few million in revenue a year.

Solely relying on "Broken" would guarantee a lifetime of financial security.

Moreover, there were many other excellent works.

Although not everything could be replicated exactly, Jiang Xu remembered the general framework.

Setting up a paid novel website won't put him in the red.

Although the initial investment might be substantial.

The first person who came to mind was, naturally, Fu Yanjie.

Good brother, deserved to be looked after.

When he arrived, Jiang Xu didn't directly ask for an investment.

Instead, he brought up the renovation, "How many days until it's finished?"

Fu Yanjie: "I asked yesterday, it'll be done the day after tomorrow, speaking of..."

Pausing his words, Fu Yanjie curiously asked, "When did your parents buy another house there?"

"I bought that. My parents just sponsored a teensy bit."

"Oh, you bought... What? You bought it?!"

Fu Yanjie jumped up on the spot, looking at Jiang Xu in shock, "Where did you get so much money?"

He had always thought that Jiang Xu's parents bought the house.

But now, he was told Jiang Xu bought it.

"No way, where did you get so much money?" Fu Yanjie was utterly confused, "Don't tell me you found a sugar mama. If you got such a good deal and did not introduce me to it, it's unfair."

"First of all, you're too ugly. No sugar mama would like you unless you're exceptionally gifted.

Secondly, this money, I earned from writing and selling two copyrights."

"You sold your copyrights?" Fu Yanjie looked dumbfounded, "How much did you sell for?"

He had only read about such things on the internet before.

Reality was dawning on him for the first time.

"Not much, not much. Only four hundred thousand." Jiang Xu sounded dismissive.

Well, finally, he had a chance to show off in front of this guy too.

Fu Yanjie was completely dumbstruck.

His face showed apparent envy and admiration, "Jiang Xu, you really deserve to die.

You have such a beautiful girlfriend, and now you know how to make so much money.

No, I'm feeling unbalanced in my heart. I'll go find my dad right now and ask him to transfer one of his listed companies to me."

Jiang Xu: "..."

Jiang Xu quickly stopped Fu Yanjie who was actually planning on asking his dad for a company.

Had he gone, he would definitely have been dealt with by the Seven Wolves.

"Well, I have a start-up project, would you like to invest?"

This preamble was to let Fu Yanjie know of his current money-making abilities and then relay that to his father.

The investment would, of course, come from his father.

"What?" Fu Yanjie grew interested.

Jiang Xu explained his entrepreneurial plan.

Fu Yanjie didn't quite understand.

Things like paid reading, IP, etc.

But it sounded like Jiang Xu was saying something very profound, which seemed highly impressive.

He assured, slapping his chest, "No problem, how much do you need?"

Jiang Xu considered, "The initial needs might not be too extensive, five hundred thousand should be enough.

You can tell your uncle that I can give a 5% stake for this five hundred thousand investment.

Don't think it's too little, if he is willing to invest, then during the contract signing.

I will specify that if the company does not meet projected scale a year later, I can buy back your share for fifty million."

Fu Yanjie was taken aback, "Don't you think fifty million is too much? Even just five million is beyond my imagination.

If I had fifty million, I would just clean myself up and wait for you."

"Get out!" Jiang Xu kicked him out, "I'm going to work on a detailed scheme now. You can bring it home for your parents to look at tonight."

"Okay, go ahead."

Jiang Xu spent more than an hour to get his detailed plan ready.

With his past life experience, making an investor-friendly scheme was a piece of cake.

Once he handed the scheme to Fu Yanjie to take home that evening, Jiang Xu pulled An Nuonuo aside and let Zhang Yuanyuan leave first.

"What's up?" An Nuonuo blinked her eyes.

"Hehe!" Jiang Xu rubbed his hands together, with a naughty smile on his face, "Today I want to..."
