Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Lin Yao said, in a calm and composed manner, “Although we don’t have many business personnel at present, there will definitely be more in the future.

If different business personnel contact different customers in the same market, sooner or later we will have competition within the company.

So my suggestion is to assign different markets to different salespeople so that these problems can be effectively prevented and avoided.”

Lin Yao’s purpose for making these comments was clear: she wanted to strive for some customer resources for herself.

Jian Wen remained calm.

Zheng Yuning and the others exchanged looks with each other.

Lin Yun appeared ill at ease. She was unwilling to believe that the plan proposed by her, in her mind, God-like husband, really had any problems.

Lin Yun initially thought Lin Yao to be young and naive, but she hadn’t expected the girl to be so tactless and oblivious to any sense of propriety…

She desperately wanted to see how Qin Yi would take care of this insubordinate little office worker and give her an unforgettable life lesson.

But unexpectedly, Qin Yi simply smiled. “Following your suggestion, we could indeed avoid potentially vicious competition within the company, but this might also cause new problems. For example, because of a business personnel’s personal issue, Lingyun Industry might lose the entire market.”

Lin Yao’s mind raced fast, and following his train of thought, she said, “I think that in an expanding company like Lingyun Industry, business personnel would be desperate for sales performances, and everyone would strive to make the first sale, so I think that rather than worrying about salespeople not working hard enough, there are other matters to prioritize.”

In Lingyun Industry, sales performances spoke for business personnel; no sales performance = being eliminated.

Everyone present agreed with this point.

Although Lin Yun was displeased with Lin Yao causing her and CEO Qin to lose face on this occasion, she couldn’t deny that what Lin Yao said made some sense.

Furthermore, she was the one who had urged them to make comments and suggestions.

Qin Yi’s eyes flashed as it suddenly dawned on him that Lingyun Industry was different from his other company, a mature company in a developed market, and he hadn’t taken this into account.

So he nodded slightly and motioned to Lin Yao to continue.

Lin Yao proceeded to say, in a matter of fact manner, “Perhaps we can rely on who takes the lead in developing a customer base in which market and then give that market to her for overall management and in-depth development. When other business personnel want to develop customers in this market in the future, they would need to coordinate with the previous salesperson first.”

Lingyun Industry currently had only six business personnel, but would soon start recruiting the second and third batches…

If they had such a rule, then it meant that, as long as there were no exceptions, the first batch of business personnel would have an absolute advantage in the future.

Perhaps because Lin Yao’s ideas were too bold, everyone was silent for a while, but when it finally dawned on them, the business personnel whole-heartedly agreed with Lin Yao’s proposal.

After careful consideration, Qin Yi also had to admit that this proposal was indeed more suitable for Lingyun Industry than the one he had previously proposed.

Lin Yun opened her mouth, but just as she was about to say something, Qin Yi spoke first.

“This is also feasible, but there are still some problems, so we’ll do the allocations after we reconsider.”

Since Qin Yi said it was feasible, Lin Yun had to swallow back the words that had already reached the tip of her tongue.

The ambiance in the conference room became lively again. The business personnel were overjoyed, and Lin Yao was beside herself with joy.

CEO Qin said that he would consider her proposal, which meant that she would have the opportunity to access some of their customer base, and she would be one step closer to becoming an external trade salesperson!

The conference ended on a high note, and everyone felt all fired up with emotions.

Lin Yun’s Director’s office was quiet.

Qin Yi sat on the sofa and took a sip of Lin Yun’s hand-made coffee, and said, in a heartfelt tone, “I didn’t expect Xiao Lin to be so insightful.”

Lin Yun shot him a disgruntled glance. “What about me? Why don’t I hear you praising me?”

Qin Yi laughed and quipped, “Hey, hey, we’re discussing work here. Starting to be naughty again?”

Lin Yun turned her back to him in mock anger.

Qin Yi knew that her jealousy was getting the best of her again, so he stepped forward to appease her. “Lingyun Industry is tour brainchild. You and me. This company is gaining a foothold in Hangzhou, and business has been booming. All of this is to your credit.”

“Seems like you still have some conscience left,” Lin Yun remarked aloofly. It was hard to tell if she was pleased or unhappy from her tone. “But you have to remember, don’t praise another woman in front of your wife next time!”

Qin Yi was startled, and his brow furrowed slightly. “Lin Xiao-er, why are you being so unreasonable? The woman you’re referring to is Xiao Lin, that yellow-haired girl?”

Of course, Lin Yun knew how high Qin Yi’s standards were. Ordinary women, such as Lin Yao, didn’t appeal to him.

Of course, she deliberately chose Lin Yao to talk about. If the subject was Jian Wen, she wouldn’t be joking around so much.

Lin Yun had always been an overbearing character. Unwilling to let him off the hook, she continued, “I don’t care. In short, you can’t praise other women in front of me. Not only can’t you praise them, you can’t even look at them.”

Lin Yun was no longer a naive little girl, and she knew what to do to get what she wanted.

Despite the jealous tantrum she appeared to be throwing, she wasn’t really jealous, but was just giving Qin Yi a warning.

The six external; trade salespeople Lin Yun had recruited were all quite attractive, especially Jian Wen, who had an alluring vibe, and her looks were unparalleled.

In the future, if Qin Yi really started coming to the company often, she would be worried.

Qin Yi’s brows furrowed even tighter, and he said in an exasperated tone, “Fine fine fine, I’ll listen to you regarding all matters both inside and outside the home. Would that be alright?”

“That sounds more like it~” Lin Yun leaned softly against Qin Yi, and said coquettishly, “Otherwise, what would be the point of me traveling thousands of miles to Hangzhou to be with you?”

“What would be the point?” Qin Yi looked at her helplessly, then stretched out his hand and stroked her long hair as he said softly, “I gave my heart and everything to you, Mrs. Qin.”

Lin Yun lifted the corners of her mouth with satisfaction, and snuggled in his arms obediently as she let him express his love for her.

For the past few days, the weather in Hangzhou had been exceptionally nice. The dazzling sunlight shone through the floor-to-ceiling windows and spilled onto the handsome man and beautiful women hugging each other tightly.

After embracing for a while, Qin Yi said, “I have to go back to Tianhe. The company’s business is yours.” Tianhe was the publicly-traded company he was currently working for.

Lin Yun had to let go, and she rustled her slightly messy long hair lazily. “Well, then you should get off work as early as possible, and don’t forget our company’s dinner party tonight.”

During their conversation, Qin Yi had already finished grooming himself as fast as possible, put on a pair of eyeglasses with a thin gold frame, which made him look like a well-dressed but insufferable scumbag.

His thin lips moved slightly as he said in a deep voice, “Your wish is my command, Mrs. Qin.”

His sauveness was unbearable.

Lin Yun’s lips curled up. This was the man who she obsessed over, made her go crazy, and made her willing to give up everything and follow him to the ends of the earth.
