Chapter 833: Eight hundred twenty-eight Director Yin’s secret invitation

Gu Chen felt it wasn’t a loss at all; after all, the things he had invested in would eventually break even.

Afterward, he randomly chose a restaurant and hurriedly called the company he had previously been in contact with.

The company he reached out to first was currently the leading seller of agricultural and sideline products in the entire country.

After a brief exchange with them, and once they confirmed that Gu Chen was a shareholder, they were very willing to cooperate.

They said they needed to discuss matters in person, but it wouldn’t take too long.

They would be able to make the trip in almost one day’s time.

Once he finished communicating with them, Gu Chen immediately reached out to another party.

That was in regards to the aquaculture industry.

What he needed to do was to take down a few other aquaculture companies.

That task was rather troublesome, as Gu Chen needed to directly use money to cause disruption.

Currently, Gu Chen was not that financially flexible.

Therefore, he might need to delegate this task to someone else.

He made a call that he hadn’t dialed in a long while.

And this call was to the person Brother Zhu Zi had found for him the last time someone caused trouble at the KTV.

After leaving Gu Chen his business card, that person had not bothered Gu Chen again.

During this period, Gu Chen hadn’t sought him out either, because he still remembered the words Brother Zhu Zi had told him last time.

Seeking their help was rather troublesome and could easily lead to unexpected incidents.

People like them, who struggled in society, generally had no bottom line, their mouths full of morality and righteousness, yet their actions were utterly inhuman.

However, the current situation required underhand methods that were not meant to see the light of day, something only they could handle.

Gu Chen still treasured his own reputation, not wishing to get his hands dirty with such filth.

When he made the call, the person on the other end recognized who Gu Chen was after the first sentence.

Gu Chen briefly explained the situation, and the person understood it, readily agreeing to the task.

During that period, no further incidents had occurred.

Having sorted out all these matters, Gu Chen felt a great load off his mind.

The three of them were the first batch of new members joining the Chamber of Commerce.

Gu Chen felt it was necessary for them to see his capabilities.

Everything he did was not to show off in front of the three of them.

It was merely a demonstration of power, to show them what he was capable of.

He didn’t think it was excessive but wanted them to clearly understand what kind of fate they would face if they betrayed the Chamber of Commerce after joining.

To him, it was like giving them a warning before taking action. He believed that with their exceptional wit, they would surely comprehend the underlying principle.

Soon, thanks to Gu Chen’s various maneuvers, all tasks were completed.

Gu Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief and stopped dwelling on that matter.

As time passed bit by bit, it was evening before long.

The first person to seek out Gu Chen was none other than Director Yin.

He wasn’t there for anything else; he specifically wanted to thank Gu Chen in person and privately.

Ping Gui didn’t refuse; he didn’t believe the director had any ulterior motives.

The two of them agreed to meet at a very simple restaurant.

The restaurant was quite modest, just the kind of place ordinary people would dine.

And it was Director Yin who had picked this location.

Gu Chen didn’t know what he was thinking, inviting him to such a place.

After all, in terms of standards, it seemed a bit lacking.

But Gu Chen felt that all these things were within what he could tolerate.

Anyway, to him, what he ate or drank was immaterial; it was the company that mattered.

They casually found a corner inside the restaurant, and there sat Director Yin, opposite him.

The waiter brought various stir-fried dishes and drinks, all laid out on the table.

Upon seeing the alcohol, Director Yin promptly picked up a bottle of 52-degree baijiu and said to Gu Chen solemnly,

"Today’s success was largely thanks to you. Without you, I think I would have had a hard time getting through this predicament.

This bottle is to honor you. Although you are younger than me, your abilities far surpass mine."

At this moment, he spoke to Gu Chen very politely, showing none of the elder’s demeanor.

On the contrary, he was as deferential as a junior in Gu Chen’s presence.

The look in his eyes was one of respect, mixed with a hint of fear.

Just as Gu Chen was about to tell him this wasn’t necessary, since he didn’t much appreciate the culture surrounding alcohol,

Director Yin, an impatient man, had already started downing the bottle of baijiu.

It was evident he was no stranger to drinking sessions; he guzzled the baijiu as if it was water, incredibly fast.

In the blink of an eye, all that was left of the bottle was an empty vessel.

"Thank you for your help."

He said to Gu Chen at that moment.

His face had taken on a slight flush.

It was clear he had drunk a little too much.

"Really, you needn’t do this. As I always say, once you join the chamber of commerce, we’re all family. Let’s avoid such practices in the future."

Gu Chen spoke frankly. It wasn’t that he was ungrateful; he simply felt such gestures were unnecessary.

After all, they would be seeing each other often in the future. It wasn’t possible to drink a bottle of baijiu every day.

"In the future, whenever you need my assistance, just let me know," he said to Gu Chen then.

Upon hearing this, Gu Chen simply nodded.

"The chamber is all about mutual help. It’s not just when you need me; others might need you too."

Gu Chen took a moment to slightly correct what he had just said, realizing there was a slight flaw in his previous statement.

"Right, we should all help and support each other in the future, achieve together, and solve any difficulties collectively," replied Director Yin.

He nodded quickly, sans any superfluous words.

Through Director Yin’s eyes, Gu Chen didn’t seem like an ordinary person at that moment.

Because Gu Chen was simply too mysterious, Director Yin could not fathom why he possessed such formidable abilities.

He could only sense that Gu Chen exuded a maturity and steadiness that belied his age,

much like a senior with more years than himself.
