<h4>Chapter 224: System Store: The Teddy Bear That Loves to y Hide and Seek</h4>


    “Some misunderstanding?” Hearing Pool’s words, Su Yang was a little puzzled. “What misunderstanding?”


    Pool was a little embarrassed and moved a chair to sit across from Su Yang. Then, his mouth opened a few times but he was unable to say anything.


    This was the first time he saw Pool showing such a look, Su Yang was really curious.


    He nned to give J an extra point but what kind of misunderstanding could there be? Could it be that J is a fake?


    Pool deliberated for a moment. Then, still biting his tongue, he said, “Master Su Yang. Actually, J is a male shark.”


    Su Yang replied after considering it for awhile, “There’s no difference between a male shark and a female shark, as long as I can add a point to it. It doesn’t make any difference whether Fatty is a male or female rabbit, he’ll make this his home anyway...”


    Halfway through his speech, Su Yang had a sudden realisation!


    That’s pretty different!


    It didn’t matter whether Fatty was male or female, it’ll mess up the house anyway! But J is Little Hus’s crush!


    It made a huge difference, and J’s gender was a huge deal!


    Su Yang opened his mouth and his voice was an octave higher, “Did you say that J is a male?!”


    Pool hushed Su Yang and carefully said, “Master Su Yang, you’re talking too loudly...”


    Su Yang quickly covered his mouth, but his eyes were wide open, looking at Pool while waiting for his exnation.


    With an embarrassed face, Pool continued, “This is a real misunderstanding. I’m just a pool god, not an ocean god, and I don’t know how to differentiate the gender of a shark.”


    “It was during one early morning that Little Hus summoned J, and I was very sleepy at that time. After summoning it, Little Hus kept saying that J was beautiful, good looking, and he really fancied her.”


    “After that, it asked me if J was a male or female, how could I tell the difference, plus I was sleepy, so I went along with it and said it was... A female.”


    Su Yang was speechless.


    ‘This is a big misunderstanding.


    ‘I didn’t think Pool could make such a mistake.


    ‘It’s not easy to handle.’


    Su Yang frowned and was silent.


    If he didn’t speak, Pool didn’t dare to speak either as it patiently sat on the chair.


    The room fell silent...


    After a while, Su Yang raised his head. “Hey, can we change J’s gender?”


    Pool’s gentle face was filled with awkwardness.


    Su Yang sighed. “Sigh, seems not.”


    It wasn’t about the possibility of changing its gender. Even if one could, who’d volunteer to conduct the surgery?!


    Just as the two were slumped with silence, Little Hus bounced in from the living room. Seeing Su Yang, it happily waved its little edges. “Hi, Su Yang, good evening.”


    Su Yang squeezed out a smile that seemed far worse than crying. “Good evening.”


    Little Hus didn’t notice Su Yang’s expression and bounced off to the pool, looking like he was going to feed J.


    ‘That silly kid didn’t even know that he was in love with a male shark.’


    Su Yang and Pool looked at each other, then sighed together.


    Oh, what evil fate!


    Su Yang felt like he was doing an incredibly right thing by not promising Little Hus to give J an extra point right away!


    ‘At least there was a buffer!


    ‘Even if I had a buffer, J couldn’t be a mother...


    ‘What do we do? What despair!’


    That night, Su Yang helped Deeny do a bit of post-processing on the new episode of the Monster Family video, with subtitles, special effects, and... purposefully reducing the fat rabbit’s scenes by a lot.


    ‘That’s what editing is all about... No matter how much you shoot, I can still cut it out. Hahaha.’


    Su Yang felt like he was really childish for wanting topete with a fat rabbit, and a fat female rabbit at that. But... He liked it!


    ‘Since you’re stealing Deeny away from me, I’ll cut out all of your presence from the video!’


    After finishing the post-production work, Su Yang sent the video to Deeny but she didn’t say anything. It was probably because Su Yang’s post-production skills were better. Although Fatty didn’t have a lot of footage, the overall effect was rather more brilliant than the first three episodes of the Monster Family.


    The next day was Friday.


    At school, before sses started, Su Yang received a call from the finance manager. “Mr. Su. There’s something I’d like to ask you for advice.”


    Su Yang looked at the time and replied. “Spit it out.”


    The finance manager replied, “It’s like this. The employees have all joined thepany, and I need to submit their social security ording to government regtions. Is ourpany paying them as usual or do we pay them the minimum?”


    Su Yang was puzzled and asked, “What’s the difference between these two?”


    The finance manager exined, “Alright, the regr way would be to fill in the form ording to how much the employee’s sry is, and all five insurance policies are deducted by the state in proportion. The minimum way would be to fill in a low sry and pay ording to the minimum standard set by the state.”


    Su Yang asked, “Isn’t this illegal?”


    The finance manager replied, “It’s a grey area. A lot ofpanies do it because it saves corporate costs. After all, it’s not a good time to own a business.”


    Su Yang continued, “What about Junqing?”


    The finance manager said. “We pay the premiums as usual.”


    Su Yang didn’t hesitate anymore. “Do it ordingly then.”


    Now that Qidian Emerce was no longer a newpany and had a turnover of more than two million each month with a million in profit, they should follow thew and grow bigger to develop even further, rather than managing thepany in a shady manner.


    Although his ability to use [Verbal Cannon] can fool them a moment, it wouldn’t fool the entire world. It could mobilize employees, but there was no way to brainwash them long-term.


    If he wanted them to continue working hard, he had to take care of their welfare and treat them well.


    That was why Su Yang decided to continue providing the staff equal treatment from when it was Junqing’s time. After all, even if he became a capitalist in the future, he nned to be a capitalist with a conscience!


    The finance managerplied. “Okay, Director Su. Then I’ll report it as per usual. Social security is deducted every month around the 16th to the 20th. With more than 70 people in ourpany, it’s around 210,000 yuan.”


    ‘Sheesh . . more than 200,000 ah. All the insurance required every month is more than 200,000 yuan. Su Yang felt a little pain in the flesh.’


    However, he still added, “Right, remember to report to Wang Dong, Chen Xiaoyun, Liu Wei and all of them together. In addition, they didn’t get paid for the insurance when they worked at Qidian Emerce before, so give themst month’s as well.”


    The finance manager replied, “Okay, Mr. Su.”


    Hanging up the phone, Su Yang was just about to go to ss, but Little Deeny rang him.


    Su Yang’s ears rang with Little Deeny’s voice, “Master, it’s a call from Tang Dafa.”


    As soon as he heard the phone call from the big gold boss, Su Yang suddenly opened his eyes and smiled again. If not for the two million emergency loan from Tang Dafa, he probably would’ve lost all the money on him just from paying for his staff’s social security.


    So, Su Yang picked up the phone, “Brother Tang, what do you want to see me about today?”


    Tang Dafa replied enthusiastically, “Ah Brother Su. I was thinkingst night, since you don’t have a driver’s license, do you want to consider buying an office building? Yourpany isn’t so small now, and always renting a house in the park seems very ssless. Do you want to buy your own floor and move out of the office?”


    When Su Yang heard this, he smiled and said, “Brother Tang, you wanted to give me a car yesterday, and today you are actually nning to give me a building? Let’s forget about this, we just paid our quarterly rent, and it’d be a waste if we don’t live there. After all, High-Tech Park is close to my house!”


    Su Yang was not stupid, but he really thought that Tang Dafa nned to gift him a car and a house.


    It was because he used an hourss to check Tang Dafa’s memories! Tang Dafa mistook him for a second generation tycoon from the capital, and that he was very influential! That was why Tang Dafa approached him to befriend him!


    In his memory, befriending Su Yang and spending less than five million was eptable to him. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have lent Su Yang the money after gifting him the golden horse and without batting an eyelid! In his mind, he could have thrown the two million away for nothing!


    That’s also why Su Yang, despite having seen his memories made such a misjudgment...


    Tang Dafa was dumbfounded on the other end of the phone. ‘How did he frame in in a way that I wanted to give him something again?’


    Tang Dafa had a momentary suspicion that Su Yang was a psychopath. To somehow think that someone was going to give him something. What would he be if he wasn’t a psychopath?


    After all... He didn’t know that Su Yang could see into other people’s memories...


    Tang Dafa was all dumbfounded on the other end of the phone, how did it be that he was going to give him something again?


    Tang Dafa leaned on his chair, having a bit of a headache. ;How is this kid so difficult to deal with? How do I lure him if he won’t take the bait? How do you get him to spend money then?!


    After hanging up the phone, Su Yang also had a bit of a headache. ‘How am I going to run argepany if I don’t spend this money? Sigh, just a week passed and I’ve already spent almost three hundred thousand. It really is like spending money like water.’


    For the next two days, Tang Dafa had been trying to ask Su Yang out to get high, or to buy luxury goods, but Su Yang still thought Tang Dafa was trying to impress him, so he turned down all of his offers.


    At the same time, Qidian E-Commerce had finally slowly taken over all of Junqing’s business after half a month of development.


    Although they still lost about 15% of their business in the end, they had finally stabilized everything. In the future, the revenue of Qidian E-Commerce would be almost 85 percent of Junqing’s, which was still more than 1.7 million with a profit of almost 600,000 a month or seven million a year.


    Of course, this adjustment period during the past half a month also led to Qidian E-Commerce using up their funds like water. After all, it costs money to invite guests to eat, tomunicate with them to build a rtionship also costs money. Even changing the contract terms to build rtionships cost money.


    In just half a month, Qidian Emerce spent almost 300,000 yuan overall to build and maintain rtionships with their business contacts. The two million was now only 1.3 million yuan...


    Su Yang knew all this, but he wasn’t worried. After all, Qidian E-Commerce will have a steady stream of ie starting from next month.


    As long as he survived another half a month, a better tomorrow awaited him!


    On Sunday, Su Yang was resting at home.


    Well, the weekend was a time for harvest. A week’s worth of points had been saved up, and items were going to be swiped from the system store. It was time to exchange them all!


    Su Yang looked at his point coin count, and it had risen from 399 to 701. He could now buy another random point.


    Remembering his promise to Little Hus to give J an extra point, Su Yang hesitated. ‘Forget it, let’s look at the exchange items first.’


    Opening the system store, Su Yang looked at thest item in the system store, which was a dirty teddy bear that looked a bit worn out.


    Su Yang clicked on the picture of that teddy bear, and an interface popped up in front of him — [Teddy Bear that loves to y hide-and-seek].


    ‘Oh? It has a name?’


    Su Yang was surprised. He thought it had to be some kind of “teddy bear with unknown powers”.


    However, a hide-and-seek teddy bear? Why does this description feel like it’s a little monster?


    Did the store allow him to redeem monsters?


    Su Yang was a bit hesitant but no matter what, he wanted to get it!


    When the exchange is settled, everything would be exined!
