Starting to Gain Experience from Push-Ups Chapter 1602 - 770
Previously on Starting to Gain Experience from Push-Ups...
Seeing Fang Cheng inquire with concern, Ah Le’s originally tense face immediately relaxed.
He quickly stepped forward, bent at the waist, and with obvious respect and gratitude in his voice said:
"Thank you for your concern, Mr. Fang. The injury healed a long time ago."
"Last time, thanks to Mr. Fang’s willingness to lend a helping hand, otherwise I would have long lost my life on the road seeking aid everywhere, and even the Chairman might not have been spared."
Shen Wei laughed heartily from the side, reached out, and patted Ah Le’s shoulder:
"This kid isn’t my personal guard captain anymore. I plan to appoint him as the general manager of the maritime company, specifically responsible for connecting with Morning Star Trade’s overseas shipping business."
Ah Le scratched the back of his head, that tough guy face rarely showed a hint of bashfulness:
"Actually, I would rather stay by the Chairman’s side to ensure your safety..."
"Don’t be so unambitious!"
Shen Wei interrupted him, jokingly reprimanding:
"You can’t be my bodyguard doing menial work for a lifetime, right?"
"Take this opportunity to collaborate with Mr. Fang. It’s the perfect chance for you to stand on your own and learn more about doing business."
"In the future, the East City Association’s businesses will still rely on you young people to support it."
Upon hearing this, Ah Le immediately puffed out his chest and seriously stated:
"Since it’s working for Mr. Fang’s company, I’ll definitely go all out, not allowing even the slightest mistake at sea!"
Shen Wei encouraged his subordinate a few times, then turned his head to Fang Cheng:
"Ah Le has a temper as stubborn as an ox normally, but you’re the only one he truly admires and is ever grateful for your life-saving grace."
"Mr. Fang, please give him more guidance in the future. Any task you have, feel free to assign it to him."
"Although this kid doesn’t have a high level of education, he is decisive in both conduct and action, possessing courage and strategy."
"No problem."
Fang Cheng picked up the conversation and then kindly advised Ah Le:
"The maritime business here is mainly overseen by Lin Chuqiao. I’ll reach out to her later and have her send you the detailed process of connecting the procedures. If there’s anything you don’t understand or run into trouble, you can reach out to her."
"Yes, thank you, Mr. Fang."
Ah Le responded immediately, noting down Lin Chuqiao’s phone number.
Fang Cheng nodded with a smile and continued to discuss some aspects of cooperation with Ah Le.
It was evident that after the previous rescue incident, Shen Wei intended to support the ever-loyal Ah Le to rise up, grooming him as a successor.
He naturally had to keep a closer eye on this future business partner.
With business matters concluded, the atmosphere in the office completely relaxed.
Shen Wei gestured to Fang Cheng to take a seat on the sofa beside him, enthusiastically inviting:
"Mr. Fang, since you’re here, why not stay a few nights at the Golden City Resort to properly relax?"
"Besides the usual entertainment facilities here, we have several VIP lounges not open to the public, featuring baccarat, roulette, slots, and more—plenty of games to enjoy."
"If you find these uninteresting and want something thrilling, we also have cockfighting, dogfighting, and the most regular underground boxing matches in East Capital, sure to satisfy you."
He paused, seemingly remembering something, before adding:
"Oh right, recently, East Capital TV Station has rented this building and is filming the nationwide newcomer singing competition training program."
"Quite a few young and glamorous stars have come over there, making the nights pretty lively."
Upon hearing this, Fang Cheng’s hand holding the wine glass paused.
He had no interest in the so-called VIP lounges and underground boxing matches, but upon hearing the singing competition, Zhou Xiumei’s image immediately flashed in his mind.
Considering the time, Zhou Xiumei had been attending the top twenty contestants training camp for about a week now.
Since he’d happened to come over for business today, it wouldn’t hurt to visit her and have a meal together.
Seeing Fang Cheng with his head down in silence, Shen Wei thought he was uninterested in the usual amusements, so he shifted the topic:
"I remember Mr. Fang used to be quite interested in shooting. Our underground live-ammunition shooting range has recently been renovated. Would you like to give it a try?"
Fang Cheng’s eyes lit up, looking at Shen Wei:
"Is it the same range I visited before?"
Seeing Fang Cheng finally showing interest, Shen Wei immediately laughed and replied:
"Yes, it’s still the same location."
"Now, not only have we expanded two 500-meter outdoor sniper lanes, but I’ve also arranged for a number of rare new firearms, reportedly specially made for Superpower Users and Heavy Armor, packing quite a punch."
Upon hearing this, Fang Cheng nodded:
"Sure, I’ll check it out later."
It had indeed been a long time since he’d handled a gun, and the progress bar of his Gun Skill had stagnated for a while.
At present, he could take this opportunity to practice at the range; playing occasionally could also be quite satisfying.
In actuality, with his current abilities, standard firearms’ power seemed too trivial, making them quite insignificant for combat.
When facing challenging foes, nothing matched the efficiency of using fists and feet directly.
However, if he could advance this Skill Experience, leveling up might just bring about some unexpected system rewards.
Shen Wei was a person adept at reading others.
Seeing Fang Cheng agreeing to stay, he immediately turned and signaled to Ah Le with a look.
Ah Le understood, reaching into the inner pocket of his suit to pull out a black card with a gold rim, presenting it to Fang Cheng with both hands.
Shen Wei smilingly introduced:
"Mr. Fang, this is the permanent VIP card for Golden City Resort. The presidential suite on the top floor with the best view will always be reserved for you."
"No matter when, you are welcome to come here to relax at any time, and all expenses will be billed to the East City Association."
