We're building a super chaebol in Hong Kong

Just as Cherie Chung was spacing out, not knowing what to do, Su Cheng said to everyone, "Since we couldn't eat at this restaurant, let's go to another one."

After such a thing happened, Su Cheng had a particularly bad impression of this restaurant, so naturally he didn't want to continue eating there.

"There's a rather famous Sichuan restaurant across the street, how about we go there? I don't know if the boss is used to eating Sichuan cuisine," Zhang Qizheng suggested.

"Sure, I don't mind, as long as it's delicious," Su Cheng said with a smile, nodding.

"Sir, how about I leave first? I still need to look for a job. Thank you very much for your help today. May I be so bold as to ask for your contact number? I'd like to treat you to a meal another day to thank you," Cherie Chung said, her mind now back to normal.

At this moment, she was thinking: Now that quitting her job has become a reality, she should take advantage of the early hour to quickly find a job, otherwise it would be difficult to explain to her parents.

"I said I'd give you a job, and I will. What are you panicking about? Starting today, you'll be my assistant secretary. The monthly salary will be 3,000 Hong Kong dollars for now. If you perform well in the future, it will continue to increase. It's settled then!" Su Cheng directly made the decision for her.

"I… I…" Cherie Chung was dumbfounded again. 3,000 a month? In Hong Kong, that's already considered a white-collar salary, right? Even their restaurant's supervisor, it is said, only makes 2,000 a month.

"Oh right, you should have heard of the Su's Group, right? That's my family's. My current identity is the chairman of the Su's Group," Su Cheng said again.

Su's Group, that's a listed company with a market value of several hundred million!

Cherie Chung felt like she was dreaming. Today, she actually received help from the chairman of the Su's Group, who even offered her a job as an assistant secretary?

"Miss, what our boss said is true," Zhang Qizheng said with a smile from the side.

Zhang Qizheng was dressed like a successful person, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and his words were very convincing.

"Could it be that you think the salary is too low and you're unwilling?" Su Cheng asked again.

"No, no, no, I'm willing. I just feel like I'm dreaming for a moment, and I can't believe it's real. Moreover, I'm actually still in school, so I'm working part-time. I'll graduate in a little over a month," Cherie Chung said hurriedly.

"It doesn't matter, part-time is fine. As long as you're willing. You'll follow me from now on, helping me with things by my side. Let's go eat first, I haven't had lunch yet, I'm hungry!" Su Cheng said with a satisfied smile after receiving Cherie Chung's answer.

Don't mention 3,000 Hong Kong dollars, even 3 million Hong Kong dollars isn't considered much money in his eyes. To have the future Hong Kong goddess as his secretary is super worth it!

How does that saying go?

The secretary does the work when there's something to do, and the secretary is… when there's nothing to do…

Just thinking about it is exciting…

"Okay!" Cherie Chung obediently agreed.

Thus, Su Cheng took Zhang Qizheng, Wang Hai, Brother Wu, Cherie Chung, and several bodyguards, and went directly to the Sichuan restaurant across the street for lunch.

After separating from Zhang Qizheng and the others, Su Cheng said to Cherie Chung, "Let's go buy a few sets of clothes for you first, and then go to the Su's Group to complete your onboarding procedures."

"Boss, clothes are too expensive, I need to save this money for my younger siblings' education," Cherie Chung said, blushing.

"Don't worry, these expenses will be reimbursed by me. After all, you're my secretary, how can you not dress formally!" Su Cheng laughed, this little girl is so cute.

Cherie Chung finally breathed a sigh of relief, and her face was full of smiles when she heard that the clothes could be reimbursed.

Living in her kind of impoverished family, they usually lived frugally. She couldn't bear to buy new clothes even once every few years, and she couldn't bring herself to use the salary she just received today to buy clothes.

The family's women's clothing store business has become increasingly slow, and now that she has come out to work, it is time to reduce the burden on the family.

Su Cheng took Cherie Chung by car to the bustling area of Central, and finally walked into a high-end custom clothing store.

"Boss, the clothes here must be very expensive, right?" Cherie Chung was like a curious baby, she had never been to these places before.

"Not that expensive," Su Cheng said casually.

Afterwards, he took Cherie Chung to the counter.

"Madam, help me customize a few sets of clothes," Su Cheng said, seeing a slender and fashionable middle-aged woman sitting inside the counter.

The middle-aged woman was also an expert and could tell at a glance that the clothes Su Cheng was wearing were expensive, knowing that a big order was coming.

She immediately got up to greet him with a smile.

"I don't know what kind of clothes this gentleman needs to customize. I am the store manager here. Our store is a chain store of a high-end French brand in Hong Kong. The designers are all sent over from France, so the quality is absolutely guaranteed."

"Customize six sets of women's clothing for me, three sets of business suits and three sets of casual wear for this lady," Su Cheng said to the store manager, pointing to Cherie Chung.

"I don't know if the gentleman and lady are in a hurry? If you're not in a hurry, I'll call the designer over now to tailor the clothes for this lady. At the same time, you can tell the designer what your requirements are, what materials the clothes should be made of, and what price range you're looking for. He will draw a sketch on the spot, and we will redesign it if you're not satisfied, until you are satisfied. Here, the customer is God!" The store manager said enthusiastically.

Six sets of clothes is considered a big business for them.

"We're in a hurry. Do you have pictures of the styles? I just want to customize the more popular styles nowadays," Su Cheng said directly.

"Yes, I'll get them for you right away."

The store manager finished speaking and took two very thick colored books from the counter. When opened, they were colored pictures of various clothes.

Afterwards, he quickly flipped through the two clothing albums and had a general understanding of the styles inside.

"Help me write down this one, this one, and this one, and then help her take measurements. Use the best materials, price is not an issue," Su Cheng said to the store manager.

Hearing that he wanted to use the best materials, the store manager's smile became even brighter.

"Okay, sir, I'll help this lady take measurements right away."

After about ten minutes, the store manager said to Su Cheng, "Hello sir, it will take our designers and tailors about 3 days to complete the order. We need to pay first, I wonder if that's convenient for you?"

"How much?" Su Cheng didn't say much.

"Sir, since you requested the best fabrics, the top-grade material we use is Italian imported Vitale Barberis Canonico pure wool woven fabric. Since you are customizing six sets at once, I'll give you a 20% discount. The final total is 88,980 Hong Kong dollars, let's make it a good omen and just make it 88,888 Hong Kong dollars," the store manager said, calculating with a handheld electronic calculator.

In the 1970s, with the introduction of inexpensive handheld electronic calculators, abacuses began to be gradually eliminated in Hong Kong. Only some older shopkeepers still habitually used the ancient abacus to calculate.

Su Cheng nodded, took out a HSBC bank checkbook from his bag, tore off a check from it, wrote the amount on it, signed his name, wrote the date, and handed it directly to the store manager.

"88,888 Hong Kong dollars spent just like that?" Cherie Chung was so surprised that her mouth formed a circle, staring blankly at Su Cheng handing out the check.

And this was money being spent on her.
