Gasp! She's a Time Traveler Using Modern Tech to Improve Ancient Life Chapter 498 - 497: The Hidden Threat Has Always Existed

Lin Wanwan is not stingy when it cos to employee compensation. Although her company is small, the benefits are not bad. Since they follow a high-end luxury route, naturally, wages can’t be stingy. Therefore, the cohesion among the employees is very strong.

Don’t tell employees big dreams about ideals and the future; everyone is very realistic nowadays. The first thing they look at is whether the money in hand is worth their wholehearted efforts.

Things are going smoothly on both the company and Yongtang Store fronts. In the office, Pan Junqi oversees everything, with Gu Jingyu assisting, while at the Yongtang Store, cousin Su Yanwei is contributing. There’s nothing that particularly needs Lin Wanwan’s attention.

Speaking of Su Yanwei, he’s recently been reaping both career and romantic success.

As the manager of the Yongtang Store, his basic salary has increased, and the commissions are quite substantial, making both his inco and work content very satisfying for him. As for his girlfriend Chen Yan, although she’s just above average in looks, she knows how to dress well and is gentle and elegant, making her very presentable. He’s quite satisfied.

A few days ago, when Lin Wanwan was making rounds on the hot search, Chen Yan quickly recognized Lin Wanwan and Lu Shouyue with her sharp eyes. The discovery of Lu Shouyue’s Patek Philippe and Lin Wanwan’s blue diamond on the hot search left her astounded.

She subtly inquired with Su Yanwei and quickly found out the truth. It turns out Lin Wanwan is not just Su Yanwei’s cousin, nor rely a colleague, but she is his boss!

As for Lu Shouyue, the situation is even more exaggerated, as he is actually the Crown Prince of Tis Square!

With this information, it was straightforward to carry out targeted investigations, as much company information must be publicly available and transparent.

Chen Yan bought a mbership on Qichacha to check, and discovered Lu Shouyue is not only the son of Tis Square founder Lu Xingjian, but also the owner of a major auction house!

Seeing such a third-generation tycoon successfully start a business is rare, and it made her incredibly envious.

From the mont she t Lu Shouyue, she was attracted by his height and looks, and after learning about his wealthy status, she liked him even more.

However, she was self-aware; soone as privileged as Lu Shouyue was out of her league.

Moreover, compared to Lin Wanwan, Su Yanwei’s cousin, she fell short by more than a little, with no comparison in terms of height and looks.

Even if she used beauty filters, comparing to Lin Wanwan’s natural charm was still out of reach.

Since she knew there was no chance to pursue Lu Shouyue, Su Yanwei, being the cousin of the wealthy and beautiful Lin Wanwan, and potentially becoming Lu Shouyue’s brother-in-law in the future, was indeed a good prospect.

Following such a wealthy and beautiful sister wouldn’t be too bad.

Chen Yan had quietly decided that even if she passed the civil service exam and secured a stable job, she wouldn’t easily sever ties with her beloved.

Not ntioning the calculative and shrewd Chen Yan, today Su Yanwei also ca to the office to find Lin Wanwan. One reason was to report work, and another was to bring Lin Wanwan so freshly dried eel from his father.

Since Su Yanwei started working for Lin Wanwan, his father naturally resud interactions with the Lin Family, making homade gifts to strengthen their relationship.

Lin Wanwan was actually not that interested in modern dried eel, given she had top-quality, pure, and pollution-free seafood caught from Great Tang’s oceans, modern eels were no longer appealing!

For Atlantic deep-sea fish like salmon and tuna, which were difficult to catch by Great Tang’s fishern, she would occasionally buy them in modern tis, but eels were not a rarity.

The dried eel from the Lin Family Manor was more fragrant and delicious!

However, since Su Yanwei brought it with good intentions and his uncle offered it sincerely, Lin Wanwan naturally wouldn’t refuse.

After thanking him, once Su Yanwei left, Lin Wanwan picked up a clean pair of scissors, cut it open, heated it in the company’s microwave, and shared it with the employees.

This kind of dried eel is nice for a snack, especially when enjoying it in the sun during winter.

The employees wouldn’t complain about the snacks from the boss, so the office was filled with the savory aroma of dried eel.

"Boss, I feel like I’m not a Northeasterner; I’m a Jiangnan person." Han Qingxue said while eating.

With such cheerful and humorous charm, you’re definitely a Northeasterner at heart.

Lin Wanwan laughed and asked Han Qingxue, "Why do you say so?"

Han Qingxue indeed gave plenty of reasons: "I love eating seafood, especially this dried eel, I’m so fond of it! Plus red crab in wine, drunken shrimp, and mantis shrimps, I love them more than Northeast pork bones!"

Lin Wanwan laughed and said, "Not bad, not bad, it makes sense that Northeasterns don’t favor red crab in wine. Since you love it so much, I’ll give you another piece of dried eel to steam at ho tonight while watching dramas; it’s nice."

"Oh, thank you, boss!" Han Qingxue thanked her excitedly.

She gladly accepted the boss’s reward without hesitation.

Besides giving one to Han Qingxue, Lin Wanwan gave another to Gu Jingyu, one to Pan Junqi, and another to accountant Zhou, leaving one for herself.

She did not ntion the theft at the Lin Family to the company people, not even cousin Su Yanwei. It’s mainly because ntioning it would only lead to a few sighs, so cursing of the thieves, and nothing else, making the matter widely known.

Although she seed cheerful, the theft still weighed on her mind. Until the intruders targeting the blue diamond were caught, she couldn’t rest easy.

It’s obvious they were after the blue diamond. Now that they have taken the safe and forcibly opened it only to find nothing, they will surely be unwilling and may attempt again.

After all, it’s a blue diamond worth three to four billion. What could possibly deter these thieves with such a motive?

Even if they do not strike again, other greedy ones might appear. Once wealth is exposed, consequences beco uncontrollable for Lin Wanwan; borrowing, stealing, even robbery could occur.

Those big-shots dostically, don’t leave ho without three or four bodyguards, even in a country like Huaxia with great security.

Even Wang Bocheng, he brings two bodyguards when eating street food. It’s just Lu Shouyue is special; Lin Wanwan never saw him with bodyguards.

Marx once said, if capital can get 50% profit, it will risk everything; for 100% profit, it will trample all human laws; and at 300% profit, it dare commits any cri, even risking the gallows.

The theft of the blue diamond, what’s not to say it’s more than 300% profit, it’s entirely high stakes. Once successful, even selling it at a discount is significant.

Where there’s light, there’s shadow. They’re not afraid they can’t sell it.
