Chapter 74: Fang Chang Is Still the One Who Reassures Him the Most

"President Chen, is the lamb chop not to your liking?"

Seeing Chen Mo pick up a piece of lamb chop and suddenly stop eating, Shen Rou asked with some concern.

"It's fine."

Chen Mo snapped out of his trance and waved his hand.

It was mainly just mental exhaustion.

Soon, the meal was finished.

Shen Rou returned to her workstation, secretly took out a small notebook, and wrote down an entry: President Chen does not like eating lamb chops.

Looking further up, there were other notes: President Chen cannot drink alcohol…

Employee Canteen.

"How about it, Old Lu? I didn't lie to you, did I? President Chen is a really good person."

"Look at the food in this employee canteen; those restaurants outside can't compare. The chefs in the kitchen were poached by President Chen from star-rated hotels at a high cost."

Yang Dahai looked at Lu Pengtao sitting opposite him, talking endlessly.

"Thank you!"

Lu Pengtao looked at his old friend across the table; with a thousand words in his heart, he finally only managed to utter a single word of thanks.

Just a short while ago, he had received a transfer notification for his salary, and he finally believed what Yang Dahai had said about receiving his pay in advance.

This company was truly unique.

"What are you thanking me for? Just focus on driving your car well and make sure you don't cause any accidents for President Chen."

"I will."

Lu Pengtao nodded. How could he not cherish such a good job?

Cangxue Games.

Wei Yan and Fang Chang were sitting in the office drinking tea.

"Director Wei, I really have to admire you when it comes to bargaining."

"That office space for 75 per square meter—you actually managed to haggle it down to 64."

Fang Chang sipped his tea and said to Wei Yan with a look of admiration.

A standard 80-square-meter office space would normally cost 72,000 a year, but after Wei Yan's bargaining, it came down to 61,000, saving over ten thousand yuan.

"It's normal. That office space of his hasn't been rented out for several months, and who knows how long it would take to rent out."

"If they don't rent it to us and it sits empty for another two months, it's equivalent to losing over ten thousand yuan."

"Weighing the pros and cons, the probability of them choosing to rent to us is very high, unless they are confident they can rent out the office space within two months, which they clearly are not."

Wei Yan smiled and explained. He had calculated this price; it was basically two months' rent.

Two months was just right. If it were too long, the landlord might have reconsidered.

"Alright, enough talk. I need to go study."

"I've already ordered the seats and such; you just need to communicate with President Chen."

Wei Yan said, then stood up and walked towards the employee studio.

During this period, as he continued to engage with things, he realized there was more and more he needed to learn.

Fang Chang watched Wei Yan leave, a look of admiration appearing in his eyes.

No wonder President Chen valued Wei Yan so much. Not to mention Wei Yan's professional competence, this spirit of learning alone was enough.

It seems I need to work hard too!

Fang Chang sighed, took out his phone, and dialed a number. He needed to report today's situation to President Chen. After all, purchasing so many desks and chairs and renting a new workshop, he had to report it to his boss.

"President Chen, this is the financial report from Cangxue Games regarding the expenses for office computer desks, chairs, and renting the new office building."

Shen Rou handed the report that the finance department had just sent over to Chen Mo.

Oh!

Chen Mo reached out to take the report, his gaze eventually landing on the total consumption amount, which was over 2.2 million.

Not bad!

In this way, including the money for purchasing the bus, he had already spent over 4 million.

Ring!

The phone rang.

Chen Mo answered the phone, and Fang Chang's voice came through.

"President Chen, the things you arranged have all been taken care of here. The financial report should have already been sent to you today."

"Mm, I saw it. Well done."

"Thank you for the compliment, President Chen, but this time we owe a lot to Director Wei. That 80-square-meter office space would have originally cost over 70,000 to secure, but Director Wei stepped in and saved over 10,000."

Chen Mo was speechless upon hearing this.

This Wei Yan, no matter where he went, was always thinking about saving him money.

But fortunately, it was only over 10,000, so it didn't have much impact.

Sigh!

Up until now, Fang Chang was the one who reassured him the most.

Everything was done according to his requirements, unlike those two guys, Wei Yan and Li Shen, who were always causing trouble.

He didn't know how this guy's game was coming along, but with Fang Chang's ability, once this new game hit the market, he would have another money-losing game.

Thinking of this, he asked.

"Fang Chang, how is the development of your new game going? How much longer until it's ready?"

"Replying to President Chen, if the new office space is fully staffed and we have enough manpower to develop it, it will take about three months."

"That's fine. I will notify HR to recruit new personnel for you as soon as possible."

Chen Mo hung up the phone and threw himself into his chair.

If they recruited a batch of new people, he could spend another batch of System Funds.

Now, counting the 400,000 in final payments that hadn't come in yet, there was only about 4 million in System Funds left.

He could spend a portion on next month's employee salaries.

He could spend a portion on hosting a sports meet.

Plus some daily expenses, he should be able to spend 2 million in System Funds.

This way, there would only be about 2 million in System Funds left for him to spend.

It seems he needed to think of some other ways to spend money!

Forget it. Anyway, there was still plenty of time, no need to rush for this moment.

Just like that, a week passed.

Chen Mo sat leisurely in his chair. Nothing unexpected had happened during this week. The new office space at Cangxue Games had officially started operations. Because the company's benefits were very generous, the office space with twenty workstations had quickly recruited over a dozen new employees.

Because of this, he also spent a sum of System Funds.

What surprised Chen Mo even more was that Li Shen, who always caused trouble, had actually started spending money for him.

Looking at the submitted procurement application form, there was a consumption amount of over 100,000.

The largest expense was the canteen needing to replace an electronic sensor door. After asking, he learned that employees from other factories often snuck into the canteen.

For this reason, Li Shen prepared to install an electronic sensor door. Their own employees would be issued electronic sensor cards; by then, the canteen would only be accessible by swiping a card, which would prevent employees from other factories from sneaking into the restaurant.

The idea was good, and it could spend a sum of funds. Chen Mo didn't even think about it and approved it directly.

Ring!

The phone rang. Chen Mo glanced at the caller ID; it was a call from Fang Chang at Cangxue Games.

He answered the phone.

"President Chen, that new equipment you wanted has been developed. Should we immediately integrate it into the game?"
