Luoyang, Mo Yu Grand Hotel.
Li Mingyi waited in Si Jinyan's room for Zhao Yunhai to wake up and summon him.
"Does your boss sleep this late?"
After spending a few hours with Si Jinyan, Li Mingyi became less reserved, sitting on the sofa and chatting idly.
"I am just an employee under the boss."
Si Jinyan would not discuss such matters. Any additional word would be leaking his boss's information to an outsider.
"Alright."
Seeing the other party's avoidance, Li Mingyi, being understanding, didn't press further.
It was fine. After all, he was a big boss, a major client.
He might have to rely on this person for his business in the future.
The richest man in Jiuzhou was known to all and sundry. Mo Yu Group's various products were distributed throughout Jiuzhou and even sold abroad.
Li Mingyi's household necessities were currently products from Mo Yu Group.
Mo Yu's products had almost become integrated into the lives of Jiuzhou's people.
Therefore, a rich man of such power was incomparable to those who changed their status every few years.
If the son of the richest man could look after his business.
Li Mingyi was delighted in his heart.
It wasn't until around ten-thirty in the morning that Si Jinyan took Li Mingyi to see Young Master Yun.
Zhao Yunhai had Yang Hui in one arm, eating a ham bread freshly made by Yang Hui.
Successfully confirmed the protagonist's identity, the Super Multiplier panel activated.
[Ten Thousand]
This Super Multiplier directly multiplied by ten thousand. Zhao Yunhai almost couldn't help but stand up.
However, Zhao Yunhai knew that such a mysteriously appearing ten-thousand-fold multiplier must have a catch.
But ten thousand times was still ten thousand times. Even Zhao Yunhai couldn't remain calm.
But when the Fishing Radar, his golden finger, merged into his body with a ten-thousand-fold multiplier,
Zhao Yunhai's expression became peculiar. Such a strange golden finger was worthy of a ten-thousand-fold multiplier, making him unnecessarily excited.
What use was this Fishing Radar even with a hundred-thousand-fold multiplier? Would it make him go to sea personally?
Make the son of Jiuzhou's richest man, the future heir of the Zhao family, go to sea?
This was a joke.
However, every golden finger had its purpose. It was just that, for him, this golden finger was somewhat redundant.
But a protagonist with such a golden finger seemed to still be in need of money and lacked great ambition. That made things easier.
"You are Li Mingyi, right? I have a business to discuss with you."
Zhao Yunhai looked directly at Li Mingyi and said, "This deal will only benefit you, with no harm."
He was telling the truth. If the other party refused, then it was his fate. If he agreed, his fate was not sealed.
"What business?"
Seeing that the main topic had arrived, Li Mingyi perked up. Although the other party's gaze was strange, he endured the discomfort for the sake of business.
He even suspected the other party was gay, perhaps tired of women and now interested in men.
Zhao Yunhai was unaware of Li Mingyi's thoughts and said indifferently.
"First, tell me, can you really catch wild, plump, and precious seafood and fish every day?"
Li Mingyi touched his nose, his tone humble, yet his words filled with pride.
"Of course. While I can't say one hundred percent, it's ninety percent."
"I like confident young people."
Zhao Yunhai asked this intentionally, also to allay the other party's suspicions.
Hearing this, Li Mingyi couldn't help but inwardly complain. You don't look much older than me.
Zhao Yunhai's eyes seemed to pierce through Li Mingyi's guarded heart, prompting the latter to quickly avert his gaze.
"Everyone has their secrets. I am not interested in your fishing methods."
"I want to invest in you and set up a fishing company for you. I will not interfere with your plans or decisions for this company."
"It will be sixty-four, with me taking sixty percent. I will have people specifically assigned to audit the accounts."
Upon hearing this, Li Mingyi felt like refusing. He could easily start a company on his own; there was no need to work for someone else.
"Don't be so quick to refuse. See how much benefit my investment can bring you."
"And also see the simulated process and obstacles you'll face after starting your own company if you refuse me."
Zhao Yunhai showed no surprise at the other party's hesitation. He simply smiled and gestured to Si Jinyan to proceed.
Si Jinyan took out a stack of documents from a file bag and placed them in front of Li Mingyi.
"Do you think I will accept your proposal after just looking at this?"
Li Mingyi felt like laughing. His resolve was as firm as iron; changing his mind was absolutely impossible.
Zhao Yunhai smiled without speaking and gently patted Xiaohui's shoulder. "Darling, go get me a glass of water."
"Mm." Yang Hui got up and left.
Li Mingyi glanced at Yang Hui, unaware of their relationship, nor did he wish to know.
"See? Otherwise, you'll regret it."
Si Jinyan reminded Li Mingyi kindly.
"Alright."
Li Mingyi picked up the stack of documents and began to read slowly.
Initially, Li Mingyi paid little attention. No matter how great the benefits, he would still be working for someone else.
But as Li Mingyi saw the simulated future of his own company, cold sweat began to break out on his forehead.
The obstacles encountered were very real. What was particularly alarming was that this person had even simulated how he would deal with the company Li Mingyi would establish.
If things progressed according to this simulation, he would be bankrupt.
He wouldn't be able to recover anytime soon and might even be imprisoned for some time due to certain issues.
Once imprisoned, he would never be able to clear his name. Such a stain on his record would be indelible.
He hadn't expected starting a company to be so difficult. Although he could overcome some challenges, the other party's targeted actions were truly fatal.
"When did Jiuzhou's richest man gain such immense power?"
Li Mingyi let out a cold snort, suppressing his inner shock and forcing himself to remain calm.
Zhao Yunhai was confident that Li Mingyi wouldn't dare to leave and took a sip of hot tea.
"You can try."
"Sixty-four, with me taking sixty percent, is my greatest concession."
If the other party weren't the protagonist, Zhao Yunhai wouldn't even give him ten percent.
However, since the other party was the protagonist, it was a small price to pay to have him work for him. Why wouldn't he do it?
Investing a small amount of money, with the other party handling everything, would result in immense profits and a guaranteed return.
After all, protagonists always made money and never lost it.
If the other party truly refused to be sensible, then he would be reduced to ashes and become nourishment for the sea.
Li Mingyi's expression was conflicted, and his heart was in turmoil.
He had thought of many ways to counter the other party's actions but found himself powerless.
Was this the power of capitalists?
He was truly unwilling.
He clearly had a golden finger!
"Oh, right, I almost forgot. Si Jinyan, give it to him."
Zhao Yunhai, seeing that the other party's willpower was only a straw away from collapsing, spoke gently.
Si Jinyan handed Li Mingyi a business card.
"This is Jiuzhou's best orthopedic neurologist. The illness your mother's doctor couldn't cure, my boss has taken responsibility for."
"Don't worry, it can be cured."
"Famous and the best. I believe you can distinguish which one is the most authoritative."
"You know, this isn't something money can easily book. It requires influence."
"I agree."
His mother, who had raised him through hardship, was Li Mingyi's greatest weakness. He clutched the business card and agreed without hesitation.
Fine, money was inexhaustible, and power was something he couldn't grasp.
Being in charge of a company was also a form of being his own boss.
"Happy cooperation."
Zhao Yunhai smiled and extended his hand.
"Happy cooperation."
Li Mingyi let go of all his inner turmoil, took a deep breath, and shook his hand.
