Night fell, and the lights began to twinkle as Zheng Yifan finally returned to Ladidia's estate. For a while, he quietly admired the sales of Lopez Jewelry. The business was booming, bringing Zheng Yifan a vast amount of wealth. Although his personal strength and the mysterious organization that Ladidia had secretly identified kept her from harboring any ill thoughts.
However, in France, everything was not very convenient. The translator was Ladidia's, the lawyer was Ladidia's, and even the residence belonged to her.
Everything depended on Ladidia, but now he truly needed a support system where he could develop freely—a base in France.
"Hey! Simba." Zheng Yifan leaned slightly forward, his right hand stroking a Great Pyrenees in front of him, the large Great Pyrenees that was often around.
This was Ladidia's beloved pet, its soft white fur felt smooth and comforting to the touch, and its adorable big eyes sparkled as they looked at Zheng Yifan.
Simba obediently licked Zheng Yifan once, then curled up beside his legs, drooling over the desserts on the table ahead.
"Go ahead! Good boy!" He gently picked up a sausage next to the dessert and slowly broke it into pieces to feed Simba.
Simba eagerly licked the sausage and then rolled his tongue, swallowing the entire piece in just a few bites.
"This is amazing! Usually, Simba only eats what I or the butler feed him. I can't believe he's actually eating the sausage you gave him; it's incredible." Ladidia exclaimed as she approached to pet her dog, then sat down on the sofa opposite Zheng Yifan.
The sofa appeared exceptionally spacious, its elastic leather both luxurious and comfortable.
"Hi, Ladidia. Your company must have a lot of never-ending tasks right now. How do you still find time to come here?" Zheng Yifan asked curiously.
Ladidia smiled and gently clapped her hands.
Immediately, two sharply dressed men walked in.
"My friend, I believe your life in France has not been very pleasant. Even with Emma translating for you, it won't fully convince you," Ladidia said.
She pointed at the two men before her. "These gentlemen are from Leopard Head Hunting Company; they can recruit an entire team to serve you."
"You now have enough money to relax. Your affairs will become much more leisurely from here on out." Ladidia smiled as she handed a bank card to Zheng Yifan.
"This is your Xingye Bank card, sent by Basile. It contains a full one hundred million, and all the money here is from legitimate earnings. You also have many scattered assets under your name to help turn your future funds into clean money."
"Everything will be handled by professionals. What you need to do now is purchase services from these two gentlemen, allowing them to hire an entire team for you, covering legal support, accounting, and regulatory affairs."
"They will ensure that all your money becomes legitimate."
Ladidia introduced Zheng Yifan.
"This is your employer, Mr. Zheng Yifan from Huaguo."
"This is Bruno; he will take care of all your worries."
After the introductions, Ladidia smiled and left the living room.
The matters that followed were not suitable for her presence.
"Hello, Mr. Zheng. This is the selection package provided according to Sister Ladidia's initial request. Please take a look..."
Once Bruno entered work mode, he was completely focused. Zheng Yifan only needed to nod or shake his head lightly.
For half an hour, Bruno explained over a dozen plans to Zheng Yifan, each showcasing the capabilities of these headhunting firms and the twitching wallet.
Too expensive! If he were still an ordinary citizen, he would never be able to afford such costly services. Each plan offered a meticulously selected team, especially after Ladidia's countless reminders, which made the standards even stricter.
These individuals were elites from various industries; being targeted by Leopard Head Hunting Company was enough to prove their strength.
"I choose the first plan, and I also need to be able to add personnel at any time. I wonder when I can meet them," Zheng Yifan said seriously.
The first plan was the most expensive, with each individual's asking price being undeniably high among high salaries.
"Are you sure? This plan is just an ideal proposal; the price is not something everyone can accept." Bruno examined the proposal again, but his heart was in turmoil.
This plan seemed designed either as a prank or to provide the client with the best comparison possible, with each person being a star talent from Leopard Company.
Of course, the price was steep—not only were there salaries, but also expensive brokerage fees.
Now, Zheng Yifan had directly chosen this option without even furrowing his brow.
For a mere ten-person team, the annual salary was seven million Francs, not counting additional commissions.
The fees amounted to half of the annual salary.
In other words, Zheng Yifan needed to pay another six million Francs to the headhunting company.
The total transaction amount exceeded one hundred million, yet Bruno suddenly felt that this young man from Huaguo was making a tremendous profit.
Because this team had swept through the top talents of Leopard Head Hunting Company.
After a moment's hesitation, he made his decision and called for his assistant to help notify these individuals to come for an interview.
Of course, he knew this was merely a formality; with their talents, they would surely impress this young man from Huaguo.
...
Time ticked away quietly as the clock swung back and forth. After a sumptuous late-night meal, ten talented individuals from various countries gathered at Ladidia's home.
Among them were six men and four women, each fulfilling their respective roles.
One man and one woman were responsible for handling any issues in Zheng Yifan's daily life. A well-dressed man in his fifties stood at the back of the crowd; he was his butler, George. The beautiful woman occasionally pushed her gold-rimmed glasses up on her nose and was his translator.
The lawyer, accountant, and the other eight individuals quietly awaited Zheng Yifan's interview.
It was not as formal as a university interview; it felt more like a casual meal among friends.
Clearly, these ten people had completely impressed Zheng Yifan with their talents.
They were far more professional than the team from the apocalypse, each a standout in their respective fields.
In his daily life, he would mostly interact with his butler and Translator Jessica. Sister Jessica was fluent in eight languages and skilled in Mixed Martial Arts and Taekwondo. She had even undergone professional bodyguard training to protect Zheng Yifan when necessary.
Of course, Zheng Yifan could completely disregard the need for protection; if someone were capable of harming him, Jessica believed there would be no way to safeguard him then.
Nevertheless, Zheng Yifan was still quite satisfied; at the very least, having her around was a visual delight.
After signing the contracts, these individuals became Zheng Yifan's employees, and from then on, Byte would be responsible for him.
Finally, Ladidia made her appearance, walking over to Zheng Yifan with a smile and leaning in close to whisper in his ear.
"Jessica is someone I specifically had them seek out. Not only is she proficient in various languages, but she also excels in... other skills. You might want to give it a try sometime," her voice was filled with temptation as she cast a glance at Jessica.
