Only after being reborn did I realize how fascinating the world of the rich is.

Tang Shanshan seemed a little embarrassed and angry, and pouted as she retorted: "Go ahead, go ahead, who cares? I could say you've taken a fancy to my fiancé!"

I'm not as petty as you. If you take a fancy to him, Xiaofeng is mine, and that old man is yours for the taking!

Li Xiaofeng asked curiously, "Who is Sister Shanshan's fiancé?"

Liu Shasha smiled and said to Li Xiaofeng, "You should know that he is Feng Dahai's father, the famous Director Feng in Shanghai!"

Li Xiaofeng smiled but didn't say anything.

Although he had never met Director Feng, he figured that Feng Dahai must be much older than Tang Shanshan.

Clearly, Tang Shanshan intends to marry Director Feng. There must be other factors involved, perhaps related to her being ostracized within Shanghai TV Station. Maybe she wants to find a powerful external ally for herself!

Tang Shanshan looked at Li Xiaofeng's expression and said irritably, "Xiaofeng, what are you laughing at? I can tell what you're thinking just by looking at your sly smile!"

To tell you the truth, I'm not like Sasha. She's all about looks; she only cares about a man's appearance and only likes cute, puppy-like guys like you.

But I'm different. What I like about a man is his talent. Physical appearance fades with age, but talent increases with age!

Liu Shasha said somewhat indignantly, "So you mean that Xiaofeng, who is so young, built such a large business from scratch, doesn't count as having talent?"

Tang Shanshan said with a hint of sourness, "That's because you got incredibly lucky. If I had met Xiaofeng earlier, you wouldn't have stood a chance!"

Seeing that the two seemed about to have a fight, Li Xiaofeng smiled and asked, "Hey, hey, you two sisters, am I really as good as you say?"

"Oh no!" the two exclaimed in unison, then looked at each other and smiled, each covering their mouths as they laughed.

"No way, you guys were just praising me!" Li Xiaofeng deliberately feigned surprise.

Liu Shasha said angrily, "You stinky men, you dare to open a dye shop when we give you a little respect. If we praise you too much, will you still be able to find your way back?"

Li Xiaofeng smiled and deliberately pointed south, saying, "Why can't I find north? Isn't this north?"

Tang Shanshan smiled radiantly, then said to Liu Shasha with a hint of annoyance, "Sure enough, once a man gets carried away, he completely loses his bearings!"

After chatting for a while, Tang Shanshan smiled and said to Liu Shasha, "Shasha, do you want to go shopping together later?"

Liu Shasha glanced at Li Xiaofeng and smiled sweetly: "You go by yourself. Xiaofeng and I have some things to do later."

Tang Shanshan rolled her eyes at her, her tone slightly teasing, "Are these things between you serious? I knew your relationship with your younger brother wasn't simple!"

Li Xiaofeng smiled and explained, "Sister Shanshan, you've really misunderstood. We do have something important to discuss. I'm planning to buy another batch of properties recently, so I came here to ask Sister Shasha to help me choose some quality properties from the market."

"How much are you planning to buy? Can't you do it yourself?"

"It's not that much, just a hundred million. It's too much trouble for me to handle it myself, so I'll let Sister Sasha take care of it for me!"

Upon hearing Li Xiaofeng's words, Tang Shanshan's eyes widened, and she retorted through gritted teeth, "You rich people, do you no longer buy houses in units these days?"

Li Xiaofeng said with a smile, "While major developers are still offering zero-interest rates, and the policy level and banks have tacitly approved of this practice, buy as much as you can, otherwise, you'll miss this opportunity."

Tang Shanshan couldn't help but complain, "How can someone like me who only earns a salary afford a house? Even if it were given to me as a gift, the monthly mortgage payments would crush me."

Then, as if she had suddenly thought of something, she smiled and said to Li Xiaofeng, "How about I help you out? I know some people who specialize in real estate sales."

Li Xiaofeng smiled and said, "No need, it's better not to bother two people at once. Besides, Sister Shasha has helped me so much, I don't even know how to thank her!"

He has made his point very clear: the benefits here belong to Liu Shasha, and it's not something anyone can interfere with just by saying a few words.

The reason he agreed to invest in her to create a program was mainly due to his own needs; he couldn't just get money from anyone just by saying a few words to him.

In fact, his mindset toward investing in gyms was different now than before.

Previously, it was to comfort Miao Peipei and give her brother a place to stay. At the same time, it was also to keep a group of thugs around so that if they offended some random people, they would have a group of helpers in case.

However, it seems that these gyms are doing quite well right now. More importantly, they can provide him with a stable cash flow to cover his mortgage payments.

More importantly, he can make full use of the rental income from his property speculation, as well as the cash flow used to pay monthly mortgage payments and interest.

In other words, one can maximize the returns on their funds by utilizing even the scraps left over from their existing capital.

In addition, things like opening a gym shouldn't be rushed; it's best to take it one step at a time.

Opening too many stores at once not only makes it difficult to arrange staff, but also easily leads to management chaos, a sharp drop in profit margins, and turns a profitable business into a loss-making one.

Therefore, using surplus funds gradually not only conforms to the laws of business development, but also maximizes the use of one's own funds.

Hearing Li Xiaofeng say that, Tang Shanshan realized something and pouted, saying, "I knew it, the relationship between the two of you is not ordinary!"

Li Xiaofeng smiled and said meaningfully, "Of course, Sister Sasha is my good sister. When something good happens, she will definitely take care of her own people first. I am not someone who doesn't know how to reward and punish, otherwise how can I do my business?"

Tang Shanshan pouted and said irritably, "You were calling me 'Sister Shanshan' just now, but it turns out that in your heart, I'm not the same as your 'Sister Sasha'!"

Li Xiaofeng smiled and remained silent, while Liu Shasha said smugly, "Of course it's different, that's for sure. I've known Xiaofeng for so long, and you've only just met him."

If meeting him once would make him like me, his sister Sasha, then he'd be a heartbreaker, unable to resist any woman, and a "central air conditioner" who's nice to everyone. Then I wouldn't need to be so good to him!
