I keep scrolling through Douyin's treasure chests; they're showing me their loyalty.

Chapter 128 Business Center

The two entered a luxuriously decorated store, where a beautiful saleswoman immediately came forward to greet them. Ning Xiuyang led Shen Youyou to select items while observing the store's layout.

This is a Chanel boutique, which was recently renovated and opened for business.

"Boss Gong, business has been good lately."

At that moment, a middle-aged man wearing a polo shirt, a gold watch, and a protruding belly walked in, followed by two young men in white shirts and suit pants, carrying documents.

Behind the shop's cashier, Gong Feipeng, the shop owner who was checking the accounts, immediately put on a smile when he saw him and quickly went to greet him: "Oh, Mr. Chen, what brings you here? Please have a seat."

The man referred to as General Manager Chen is Chen Yutao, the general manager of Guizhi Property Management, the Guizhi Commercial Center in this building.

Chen Yutao sat down with an air of superiority, crossed his legs, and said with a forced smile, "Boss Gong, as you know, the overall operating costs of the mall have been rising recently. As for the rent for your shop... shouldn't it be raised as well?"

Gong Feipeng's face immediately turned somewhat ugly, and he said with a forced smile, "President Chen, our contract was only signed not long ago, wasn't it? This...this isn't in accordance with the rules, is it?"

"rule?"

A young man next to Chen Yutao immediately scoffed, closed his folder, and said calmly, "Boss Gong, you can't be unaware, can you? In this building, our General Manager Chen is the rule!"

Chen Yutao waved his hand, signaling his employees to stop, and, playing the good cop, slowly said, "Xiao Gong, you can't say that. The main problem is that your store's business philosophy doesn't quite align with our mall's high-end positioning. I'm just trying to give you a heads-up. Of course, if you know how to handle people, I can put in a good word for you."

The implication couldn't be clearer.

Even a fool like Gong Feipeng would understand. He had heard from other shop owners that this Mr. Chen from the property management company liked to take kickbacks, and he didn't expect it to be true.

When the contract was initially signed, the only goal was to push for its signing.

Now that my shop is renovated, I'm coming to your door.

This is like luring yourself in to be killed!

Without a doubt, if you pretend you don't know anything, your store's fire safety, customer traffic, and other aspects will be affected in the future.

After weighing the pros and cons, Gong Feipeng dared not speak out in anger, and could only force a smile: "Mr. Chen is right, I was confused. How about this, tonight I'll treat Mr. Chen and a few brothers to a casual dinner, and... there will definitely be good wine and good food served."

"Hmm, a promising young man." Chen Yutao nodded in satisfaction.

Good wine and good food are not just about the food itself.

"Pay exactly what's written in the contract, not a penny more."

At that moment, a calm voice suddenly rang out.

Chen Yutao and Gong Feipeng both looked in the direction of the sound and saw a young man holding a pretty girl's hand standing not far away, looking at them calmly.

Chen Yutao frowned but remained silent.

The young man next to him, holding a folder, immediately raised an eyebrow, glared at Ning Xiuyang, and said, "Who are you? We're talking business, what right do you have to interrupt?"

Ning Xiuyang ignored him and said to Gong Feipeng, "From today onwards, I am the owner of this commercial center. All leases will be executed in accordance with the contract."

"Boss?" Gong Feipeng was stunned.

One of Chen Yutao's young men directly mocked, "Haha, kid, what kind of daydream are you having? Do you even know whose property this mall belongs to? Boss? I think you're the boss's chair!"

Chen Yutao's heart skipped a beat. He saw that Ning Xiuyang had an extraordinary air about him, and the girl beside him was absolutely stunning; it didn't seem like he was joking. His heart tightened, and he quickly went to the side and dialed his former boss's number.

A few seconds later, he returned, his face pale and drenched in cold sweat.

"May I ask your surname, sir?" Chen Yutao asked Ning Xiuyang, clinging to a sliver of hope.

Ning Xiuyang glanced at him indifferently and said, "Ning Xiuyang."

scare!

Chen Yutao's legs suddenly went weak, and he almost lost his balance.

Ning Xiuyang!

The owner who fully acquired Guizhi Commercial Center!

It's worth noting that while Guizhi Commercial Center may not be the most prestigious commercial center in China Overseas, it still ranks among the top few.

Thanks to its unique geographical advantages, coupled with the brilliance of major brands setting up shop there, this is a true money-making machine.

To buy this property outright would probably cost at least tens or hundreds of billions.

Those who can readily produce tens or hundreds of billions must have incredibly powerful connections; could I afford to offend them?

"Chairman Ning... Chairman Ning!" Chen Yutao's voice trembled. "It's a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding! It's this Gong Feipeng. He's mismanaged the business, he's behind on property fees, and he doesn't conform to our mall's operating philosophy. That's why I... that's why I wanted to give him a warning!"

Ning Xiuyang looked at him coldly, without saying much, and directly took out his phone and dialed You Jinyu's number.

"Sister You, put Dechang Property aside for now and come to Guizhi Commercial Center. From now on, you will also serve as the property manager here."

You Jinyu on the other end of the phone was taken aback at first, then came a voice that was both surprised and delighted, but pretended to complain: "You brat, do you think I'm the production team's donkey? Doing the work of two people, are you going to work me to death?"

However, she was deeply shocked!

Guizhi Commercial Center?

That's one of the top-tier shopping malls in China Overseas!

Their annual revenue is in the hundreds of millions.

Compared to this behemoth, Dechang Property Management is just a child's play.

Such a large business, and your brat just handed it over to me to run so easily?

For a moment, You Jinyu felt an overwhelming sense of longing and emotion.

"The capable should do more, I'll give you an extra meal tonight," Ning Xiuyang said with a light laugh.

"That's more like it..." You Jinyu's voice was filled with undisguised excitement.

[Note: You Jinyu's affinity with you has increased to 95 points (Admiration)!]

After hanging up the phone, Ning Xiuyang didn't even glance at Chen Yutao again, but said to the vice president next to him, "Fire him, tell him to go to the finance department to settle his accounts and get out of here."

"Chairman Ning! Chairman Ning, I was wrong! I have elderly parents and young children to support! I will never dare to do it again!" Upon learning of this outcome, Chen Yutao broke down on the spot, hugging Ning Xiuyang's leg and weeping bitterly.

Ning Xiuyang remained unmoved, and pulled the already dumbfounded Shen Youyou away.

Seeing Ning Xiuyang's decisive and ruthless demeanor, Shen Youyou's heart was filled with turbulent emotions.

This huge commercial center... is actually his property?

How many secrets is this seemingly ordinary and introverted senior hiding?

That apartment...it might not be a shared apartment at all, but his own house?

No wonder this guy suddenly changed completely, spending his days doing nothing but driving luxury cars, and his so-called apartment sharing is probably just some kind of scheme...

Thinking of this, Shen Youyou's expression as she looked at Ning Xiuyang was filled with an incredibly complex light.
