Chapter 75: Chapter 74 phone bill top-up, 100 million yuan! [Subscription request (6/10)]
Mu Rufeng immediately took out his mobile phone.
Mu Rufeng restarted the phone and entered the Ghost System.
Then, he opened the Ghost Communication APP.
Mu Rufeng went to the recharge interface and entered the phone card number.
[Please select the denomination you wish to recharge!]
Mu Rufeng looked, and the recharge denominations were 1 yuan, 5 yuan, 10 yuan, 20 yuan, 30 yuan, 50 yuan, and 100 yuan—seven options in total.
Too little, all of them.
Mu Rufeng directly clicked on the eighth option, custom input.
Without saying another word, he first pressed 1, followed by a series of 0s.
However, to Mu Rufeng’s annoyance, 8 zeroes were already the limit; he couldn’t add any more.
As such, that meant the recharge limit for phone credit was also one hundred million.
[Recharge failed, please bind your bank card number.]
An interface popped up on the APP.
Almost forgot, he indeed had not bound his bank card yet.
Immediately, Mu Rufeng entered the bank card number, then his Ghost Power verification password, and promptly completed the binding.
[Ding dong! Recharge of one hundred million yuan in phone credit was successful, account balance is 100000050 yuan]
“I hope it won’t disappoint me,” he said, staring at the phone waiting quietly.
One second, two seconds, three seconds, then ten seconds later.
His phone suddenly rang.
The incoming call was from [Ghost Communication Group Headquarters].
Mu Rufeng saw this and a smile appeared on his face—he had taken the bait as expected.
Mu Rufeng picked up the phone and answered the call.
“Hello, Mr. Mu, I’m Luo Xue, head of the customer service department at Ghost Communication Group. Thank you for recharging one hundred million yuan in phone credit with our company.”
“From now on, your phone card will be segregated, and you will become the most prestigious Black Gold phone card user of our Ghost Communication.”
A very pleasant female voice came from the other end of the line.
“Oh, can it be done like this?” Mu Rufeng asked in surprise.
The reason he recharged one hundred million yuan was to lure the people from Ghost Communication over.
Unexpectedly, he could even segregate Sister Chunni’s supplementary card and turn it into his own Black Gold phone card.
He had thought about getting a new card, and that one hundred million would be viewed as paying Sister Chunni’s phone bill.
“Mr. Mu, of course, it’s possible. For Ms. Li Chunni, we will open a new supplementary card for her and also offer her some compensation,” Luo Xue said.
“By the way, I haven’t opened a card with your company, how did you know my surname was Mu?” Mu Rufeng inquired.
“Mr. Mu, the bank card you bound is a Black Gold Card from Heaven and Earth Bank. We inquired about your information. Although Heaven and Earth Bank did not wish to reveal your identity, they still disclosed your surname.”
“I apologize, Mr. Mu, for inquiring into your information without permission. In this case, if you have time, please visit our Ghost Communication Group Headquarters.”
“We will offer you the sincerest apology and compensation,” Luo Xue said, her tone making it clear that they wanted Mu Rufeng to visit the Ghost Communication Group Headquarters.
“No need,” Mu Rufeng waved his hand, and then said, “May I ask if your Ghost Communication is in need of investment?”
“Investment? This… I’m sorry, sir, our Ghost Communication does not need investment; our funds are very sufficient,” Luo Xue responded, somewhat puzzled but also politely declining.
Their Ghost Communication certainly did not lack money as their communication business covered the entire Mysterious World.
Of course, the most important thing was that even if they wanted to accept investment, they couldn’t, not even the controllers of Ghost Communication could do so.
The reason for this was the special nature of the Ghost Communication Group.
Ghost Communication Group has never been fully controlled by any Abnormality, or rather, it can’t be controlled at all—it must operate according to the Ghost Communication Group’s own rules.
…
Mu Rufeng came back to his senses, feeling a bit disappointed.
“Mr. Mu, would you like to change your phone number to a more prestigious one?” Luo Xue asked again.
“A prestigious number? Forget it, this one is fine,” Mu Rufeng said, not wanting to be too high-profile with a flashy phone number.
He continued to chat with Luo Xue, mainly asking about the possibility of investing and why they couldn’t accept investment.
Luo Xue, because Mu Rufeng was a VIP customer, explained everything very patiently and in great detail.
First and foremost, the Ghost Communication Group has its own set of rules and doesn’t belong to any particular Abnormality.
The apparent controller of Ghost Communication is merely a spokesperson.
Even with the power of Level 9 strength, they can still only act according to the rules of the Ghost Communication Group.
Moreover, the money earned by Ghost Communication Group doesn’t fall under the purview of the controller—it requires a valid reason to use any of it.
Not only is Ghost Communication Group like this, but any slightly larger group company operates similarly.
For example, Heaven and Earth Bank, Mysterious Bus Group, Mysterious Taxi Group, and even the Crimson Preferred, Undead Preferred, etc., all operate in the same way.
This also proved why in the Mysterious World, soul banknotes are so valuable.
Because, the wealth at the top, it’s all monopolized by these strange corporate entities, or places similar to Dead Silence Graveyard.
Making money is hard, especially in this bizarre world, the abnormalities were never the controllers of this world.
Of course, there are also many self-starting entrepreneurs among these abnormalities, some successful, and naturally some failed.
The most successful appears to be a catering group that spans across the Mysterious World, with the group’s boss being touted as the first billionaire of the Mysterious World, with assets worth hundreds of billions.
Having learned these secrets, Mu Rufeng was utterly shocked.
So, the operation of the Mysterious World was completely different from the real world.
These abnormal groups actually have their own set of operation rules, which is simply unimaginable.
But then again, Mu Rufeng felt that the abnormalities of the Mysterious World were really poor, being the richest with assets of hundreds of billions means what would his one trillion be? Wouldn’t it make him instantly top the billionaire list?
Never mind, never mind, just had to think of more methods, spend some more money.
“Right, if Mr. Mu wants to invest in the industry, Crimson Preferred might accept,” Luo Xue suddenly said.
“Hmm? Are you sure?” Mu Rufeng perked up at that.
“Yes, Crimson Preferred has been suffering losses for over a year due to the pressure from Undead Preferred and XX Preferred and has even begun to attract investment from the upper echelons of Crimson Preferred.”
“I assume there’s a pretty good chance of completing an investment,” Luo Xue said.
“Great, thanks a lot,” Mu Rufeng quickly expressed his gratitude.
After chatting with Luo Xue for a while, they exchanged private numbers and then ended the call.
Not to say, this information was very important.
Because it showed that one could coerce these rule groups by using conventional business methods.
Once they start losing money, they will certainly absorb funds from the higher-ups to cover the losses.
Of course, it isn’t just taking the money from the high ranks for nothing, it involves sharing stock.
Once the stock exceeds a certain limit, that rule group will be completely controlled by that high rank.
It’s conceivable that the higher-ups of those corporate groups hold some shares of the rule groups.
These abnormal high ranks are slowly eroding the shares of the rule groups.
“Sigh, spending money is really hard.”
Mu Rufeng felt somewhat of a headache, but at least now he had a clear path.
After thinking for a while, Mu Rufeng called Li Chunni.
He didn’t know how to contact someone from Crimson Preferred, but he had Li Chunni’s phone number.
The call was quickly connected.
“Hello, is this Xiao Mu?” Li Chunni’s voice came through.
“It’s me, Sister Chunni, I…”
Mu Rufeng was about to speak, but then Li Chunni started blabbering away like a cannon.
“Xiao Mu, Xiao Mu, do you know what just happened?”
“Your supplementary card seems to have been canceled, and then the communication company compensated me with one hundred thousand yuan in credit, that’s a hundred thousand!”
“Eh… wait, if the supplementary card was canceled, then how can you still use that number to call?”
Mu Rufeng rubbed his ears; Sister Chunni sure had a loud voice.
“It wasn’t canceled, it became independent, my own phone card now, could I bother you for a little help?” Mu Rufeng spoke.
“It became independent? Never mind, they added credit to my account and gave me a new supplementary card too, I hit the jackpot, haha.”
“What do you need? Just so you know, if it’s about lending money, forget it,” Sister Chunni said.
“Don’t worry, it’s not about borrowing money. Could you give me the contact information for HR Manager Liu Mei?” Mu Rufeng asked.
“Ah? Why do you need Manager Liu’s contact information?” Li Chunni was puzzled.
“Just helping out, I’ll top up one thousand yuan in credit for you, right now,” Mu Rufeng said.
“One thousand yuan? Okay, okay, I’ll get her number for you,” Li Chunni swiftly ended the call and went to get the number.
Although Li Chunni’s phone credit was already a staggering one hundred thousand yuan, she didn’t mind an extra thousand.
As for Manager Liu’s number, that was even simpler; no need to ask Liu Mei directly.
You could find the HR Manager Liu Mei’s contact info just by looking at the staff list hanging on the storage room wall.
A trivial effort for another thousand yuan of phone credit, why not?
Before long, Mu Rufeng jotted down Liu Mei’s contact details from Li Chunni.
Li Chunni, after all, was just a minor employee and couldn’t easily contact upper management.
But Liu Mei was different; she might not be a high-up, but as an HR Manager, her position was not low.
Having acquired Liu Mei’s contact information, Mu Rufeng immediately dialed it.
“Who is it?” Liu Mei’s voice transmitted through the phone.
“It’s Mu Rufeng, Manager Liu should remember, right?” Mu Rufeng spoke.
“Mu Rufeng? Heh, of course I remember, you were formally employed and had just completed your task and returned, how could I forget?” Liu Mei chuckled.
What do you think?
