Qiu Haitang said without thinking: "Thank you again for Mr. Zhong's kindness, but... no need. I raised part of the funds myself, and the other part was invested by Yan's. Besides, I called Fang Cheng back, and he also brought funds... so the funding problem has been solved."

After hearing this, Zhong Huihuang's expression changed slightly, and he said with some disdain: "You always talk about Yan's, but it's a newly opened company. How much money can it have to invest in your law firm? You weren't fooled by that Yan's, were you?"

Qiu Haitang looked serious and said, "Yan Shi doesn't even bother to fool someone like me."

Zhong Huihuang choked for a moment, then looked at Fang Cheng and asked, "Fang Cheng, you gave up your career in the U country and returned to China. Are you really going to Qiu Haitang's law firm?"

Fang Cheng nodded calmly, "Yes, if she lets me invest, I will invest. If she is not short of funds, I will work for her."

Zhong Huihuang's cheek twitched slightly, and a hint of greed flashed in his eyes.

But he still said calmly: "Fang Cheng, you have to think clearly. If you blindly enter a new company or a new law firm without any guarantees, you will regret it.

"We are old classmates. I don't want to see you fall into a trap. So, you want to invest, right? If you invest your money in my company, I can guarantee that the rate of return will not be low... What do you think?"

Fang Cheng's expression changed slightly, and he said in a cold tone: "Not very good."

Mei Wanting, who had been silent the whole time, also said unhappily, "Boss Zhong, this is a bit unkind of you. Qiu Haitang wants to open a law firm, and you are poaching her people right in front of her. Isn't this bad?"

Zhong Huihuang said, "I'm not trying to poach her people. I'm trying to avoid a trap for her. Think about it, if Fang Cheng really went to her law firm, and it didn't work out, wouldn't that not only trap herself but also trap her classmates? Even if Fang Cheng doesn't want to come to my company, she can invest the money first, at least there's a guarantee."

Mei Wanting was a little hesitant after hearing this. She looked at Fang Cheng and said, "What he said seems to make sense. Qiu Haitang is not short of funds anyway, so you can consider it."

Fang Cheng shook his head without even thinking about it and said, "Don't consider it. I don't have much money to begin with. If Qiu Haitang's law firm doesn't want me, I'll use it to buy a house in Beijing and settle down here."

Zhong Huihuang's expression turned a little ugly, and he said coldly: "What do you mean? Don't you believe me?"

"This is not a question of belief or not. I have no interest in investing. Besides, Mr. Zhong has such a big company, so he won't care about the small amount of funds I have, right?"

Fang Cheng said slowly.

"Well, I had good intentions, but it seems that I was using them in the wrong place. Since you don't think highly of my company, I won't force you. After all, we are classmates, and I really want to help you.

"This way, no matter what happens in the capital, you can come to me. I still have some face in this small place."

Although Zhong Huihuang was very annoyed, he still did not show it and spoke in a very magnanimous manner.

Mei Wanting looked at Li Qingsong, Xiao Zhiquan, Fang Yuanyuan and the others and said, "Li Qingsong, Xiao Zhiquan, Yuanyuan, how about you? Are you doing well now?"

Xiao Zhiquan said awkwardly, "I can't compare to you. I'm currently working as a lawyer in a small law firm, and I can barely make a living."

"I also work in a small law firm. I have a lot of work to do every day, but I don't have much money..."

Fang Yuanyuan also said.

Li Qingsong and Yuan Ruoshuang also said that they were doing just ordinary things.

After they finished speaking, Mei Wanting said, "I see. Now Qiu Haitang has come to Beijing to open a law firm. She needs a lot of professionals like you. If you are interested, you can also come to her law firm and try your luck."

Li Qingsong and others looked at each other, apparently caught off guard by Mei Wanting's invitation.

"Go to her law firm that has no foundation yet? It would be better to go to Mr. Zhong's company. At least Mr. Zhong's company is big enough..."

Without waiting for their answer, Meng Jiao rushed to speak.

The expressions of several people were a little strange, and they all looked at Zhong Huihuang at the same time.

"We would like to go to Mr. Zhong's company, but... I'm afraid Mr. Zhong won't like us..."

Zhong Huihuang smiled and said, "What are you talking about? We are all classmates, so how can there be any difference between us? As long as you are willing to come, I will certainly welcome you."

Meng Jiao was immediately surprised and said, "Really? Then I will resign tomorrow. Then Mr. Zhong can't reject me."

"No, I said you're welcome anytime." Zhong Huihuang said generously.

Qiu Haitang didn't think anything of it, but Mei Wanting and Fang Cheng looked a little unhappy.

They originally thought that they would take advantage of this gathering to invite one or two more classmates to help and support the law firm together.

But these people are obviously not interested in Qiu Haitang's new law firm, they all want to curry favor with Zhong Huihuang.

Mei Wanting is a straightforward person and was about to question.

Qiu Haitang quickly stopped her and whispered, "Don't force it. Everyone has their own aspirations."

Although Mei Wanting was not convinced, she didn't say anything else.

"However, there is a rule for joining our company."

At this time, Zhong Huihuang said solemnly.

Meng Jiao, Li Qingsong and others were stunned and looked at Zhong Huihuang in surprise and suspicion.

"What rules?" Meng Jiao asked.

"Except for ordinary employees, all other management in our company adopt the shareholding system." Zhong Huihuang said slowly, "You are all my classmates. I can't let you work as ordinary employees in my company? At the very least, you have to be middle-level managers..."

Meng Jiao's eyes lit up, and she said in surprise, "Boss Zhong is giving us this kind of face? He gave us middle-level management as soon as we entered the company?"

"Of course." Zhong Huihuang answered decisively.

Li Qingsong asked in surprise: "Boss Zhong, just tell me, how can we get into your company?"

"It's very simple. If you want to be a shareholding manager, you have to bring funds into the company. In this way, we have a two-way guarantee."

Zhong Huihuang said without hesitation.

"Bring funds into the company? Then...how much does it cost?" Li Qingsong asked nervously.

Zhong Huihuang glanced at him, a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes, but disappeared in an instant.

Li Qingsong came from the deep mountains and was notoriously poor when he was in school.

Every day when he went to the cafeteria to eat, he only ate radishes and cabbages, and sometimes he ate pickles he brought from home.

The clothes he wore were obviously altered from other people's clothes, and he still wore them even when they were torn.

Moreover, he is the only one among all his classmates who doesn't have a mobile phone.

After graduation, he applied for a job at a law firm, but his income was limited.

I'm almost forty years old, and I've never even been in a relationship, let alone gotten married.

Nothing else, just because I’m poor.

Girls nowadays often ask for houses and cars. They also ask for a huge gift, which his family can't afford, so they simply don't dare to think about it.

Li Qingsong, who was almost going crazy with poverty, was eager for a chance to make a fortune.

Seeing that Zhong Huihuang was doing so well, he felt inferior but also seemed to see hope.

If Zhong Huihuang is willing to take care of him, then he will at least be much better than he is now.

"One million is the minimum. Of course, the more the better." Zhong Huihuang retracted his gaze and said calmly, "Our company's profits are very considerable, and the rate of return is very high. I can tell you clearly that if you invest one million, you can get it back in less than three years..."

“Take it back in three years?”

Li Qingsong's eyelids twitched.

"Of course. Our company is now in a stage of rapid development. Three years to recover the money is still my conservative estimate. We are planning to go public. Once the listing is successful at the beginning of next year, your one million may directly increase to ten million..."

Although Zhong Huihuang spoke very naturally, it was actually very inflammatory.

Qiu Haitang, Fang Cheng and Mei Wanting were also shocked.

Mei Wanting’s husband owns a company. Although she is not involved in its management, she knows that the company’s profit margin cannot be so high.

Fang Cheng was once a shareholder of a company and he also felt that the rate of return mentioned by Zhong Huihuang was too outrageous.

However, the three of them remained silent because they couldn't figure out whether Zhong Huihuang was really bragging.

"Okay, I'll make preparations when I get home today, and I'll definitely come to your company."

Meng Jiao's eyes sparkled with excitement as she made a decision.

Fang Yuanyuan was a little hesitant, "Can companies nowadays have such a high rate of return?"

"Hey, Yuanyuan, you still don't believe in Mr. Zhong? Haven't you seen that he started from scratch and has already built his company to the point of being listed... The rate of return must be high..."

Meng Jiao spoke before Zhong Huihuang could.

"Okay, then count me in as one..."
