Chapter 314 We are both willing to be the same girl
West Lake.
Jiangnan Villa.
In the early morning, the sun rises in the east.
Su Mingzhe, who was doing homework with Si Teng, suddenly heard a woman starting to sing and practice her voice in the garden.
"..."
"When I loved you, you were penniless and studying hard."
"When I left you, you were on the gold medal list and the wedding room was filled with flowers and candles."
"..."
Su Mingzhe and Si Teng finished their homework and walked out of the bedroom. When they heard the woman was still singing, they couldn't help but complain:
"Did Nan Lan fall in love with a human scholar in ancient times? How could he still be fascinated by watching "Liao Zhai"?"
"I asked Xizhu, I'm afraid there's something you don't know."
Si Teng was in a good mood and responded to the man:
"In the Song Dynasty, Nanlan fell in love with a talented man, so she pretended to be the talented man's cousin, married and had children with the talented man, and lived happily for several years. Later, her identity was suspected, and her mother-in-law forcibly separated the two. In order to protect the talented man, Nan Lan
The talented man and his children actually wronged themselves to marry another powerful man, became his stepmother, and gave birth to two sons to that powerful man."
"Is she stupid?"
Su Mingzhe was listening quietly, but when he heard that Orchid Essence had given birth to three sons in a row, he couldn't help but complain.
When the Gao tribe gives birth to a child, it is just like a vampire going through a first embrace ceremony and developing offspring, which will definitely consume a lot of their own energy.
Um?
vampire?
By the way, Selena has been sleeping in the cellar for more than ten years after her first embrace ceremony with Michael, and she still hasn’t woken up.
I'll go over there later and see if anything goes wrong.
After breakfast, Si Teng went shopping with his red umbrella.
The family has money, and Si Teng spends it, which is called arrogance.
From the 1930s to now, more than eighty years.
Thanks to Si Teng's various generosity, she has bought six commercial streets in Yuhang City alone, including but not limited to more than 120 office buildings and commercial buildings.
Throughout China, more than 600 buildings, more than 500,000 shops, and more than 3,000 companies in various industries have been purchased.
Su Mingzhe and Si Teng have been married for so many years, and they finally understand.
Si Teng spends money when he is happy, spends money when he is unhappy, spends money when he has nothing to do, and spends even more money when he has trouble.
Spending money is one of Si Teng's most common ways to express his emotions.
As a man, Su Mingzhe should be able to estimate whether Si Teng is in good or bad mood based on the items Si Teng buys every day.
For example, in the last century, Si Teng sent people to acquire more than ten pharmaceutical companies in one go.
Su Mingzhe waited until the acquisition was completed and discovered that Si Teng purchased the pharmaceutical factory because he was not happy to go to work every day and disliked the fact that he had less time to spend with her at home.
After Su Mingzhe stopped working at the pharmaceutical factory, Si Teng stopped acquiring other pharmaceutical companies.
For another example, in the last century, when Si Teng took the money to buy a commercial street, he was angry that Su Mingzhe was not willing to go shopping with her.
When Si Teng bought a commercial building out of town, he was probably angry that Su Mingzhe didn't travel with her.
Wait, wait, wait.
Si Teng had something in his mind, but he didn't say anything, just waiting for the man to guess.
Sometimes Su Mingzhe is busy with things and has no time to pay attention to her, and then Si Teng will buy a lot of things at once.
Regardless of whether they are useful or useless, buy them all and pile them up in the bedroom.
Today Si Teng went shopping with his red umbrella, and naturally he had to do some shopping.
Su Mingzhe walked alone to the back garden.
The Chrysanthemum Essence, who has just lived her second life, is preparing to go to kindergarten, accompanied by the Orchid Essence.
When the two women saw Su Mingzhe, they quickly said hello:
"Good morning, sir."
"Morning, have you had breakfast?"
When Su Mingzhe saw the two women, he stopped. After thinking for a while, he asked the two women: "You two are already in your second life. Have you ever thought about going out and living a free life?
"
The two women were a little confused by the sudden question asked by the man, so they asked cautiously:
"Sir, don't you like us staying here?"
Su Mingzhe quickly waved his hand and said:
"That's not true. I just think that the international situation is generally stable now. You can also go out and have a look. There is no need to be trapped in this place."
"Sir, we feel good living here."
Both Chrysanthemum Essence and Orchid Essence were in their second life. They were young physically and mentally. Seeing that Su Mingzhe had no intention of driving them away, they joked with Su Mingzhe:
"If sir and madam agree, we four sisters are willing to recognize you as our master and be your maidservant."
"What age is it? You still recognize your master and have a maid in the same house."
Su Mingzhe laughed dryly and changed the topic.
The ideas of these mowing tribesmen who came from feudal society are so old-fashioned and must be criticized!
In fact, Lanhua Jing and Chrysanthemum Jing also dared to joke with Su Mingzhe when they saw that Si Teng was not around.
After all, we have known each other for more than a hundred years. We have been together through thick and thin, and there is no harm in making a joke.
Of course, if Su Mingzhe had taken the opportunity just now to ask them to recognize his master, they would not have hesitated.
In this world, strength is supreme after all.
Su Mingzhe is on the ceiling of the world's combat power, so being able to serve as his maidservant is very prestigious.
Lanhua Jing was in a hurry to send Chrysanthemum Jing to kindergarten, so she stopped talking to Su Mingzhe.
Su Mingzhe continued walking towards the back garden.
The bodies of the Plum Demon and the Bamboo Demon began to age, but they insisted on waiting for the Chrysanthemum Essence and the Orchid Essence to fully grow up and regain their mana from their previous lives before they were willing to pass away and enter their second life.
Su Mingzhe respects their choice.
"Sir, do you want to go down to the cellar?"
Seeing Su Mingzhe push away the rockery, the bamboo demon reminded: "The vampire hasn't woken up yet."
"I'll go down and see how she is doing now."
Su Mingzhe said and came to the cellar.
There was no light in the cellar, and a golden nanmu coffin was placed in the center.
Using the roots to probe into the coffin, the dark atmosphere inside the coffin intensified a lot.
Selena was still lying inside, her eyes closed tightly, and she was sleeping with a long breath.
"These vampires can really sleep. They can sleep for more than ten years or even hundreds of years. No wonder they can't beat the werewolves who have strong fertility and go into berserk state every full moon."
Su Mingzhe confirmed that there was nothing wrong with Selena, reset the coffin, and left silently.
After Su Mingzhe left, Selena's eyelids trembled slightly in the coffin, and she regained her composure.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Su Mingzhe woke up from his nap and took a sip of chrysanthemum tea brewed with orchid essence.
After packing up the fishing rods, I was about to go fishing in the West Lake. Before I went out, I saw Si Teng and Chi Usama coming back with depressed expressions.
Seeing Su Mingzhe's surprised look, Chi San explained:
"Sir, my wife and I went to the supermarket in the morning. When we checked the accounts, we found that the two supermarkets that the government recommended for us to acquire last year lost money."
“Can the supermarket still lose money?”
Su Mingzhe was stunned and frowned:
"The supermarket house is our own, and the upstream and downstream industries are also our own. Product costs and operating costs are so low, how can we lose money?"
Si Teng sat in the pavilion, holding the man's purple clay pot, and poured himself a drink. Then he sighed and explained:
"Both of these two supermarkets are old companies that have been in business for nearly a century. If the company is operating normally, it will naturally be very profitable. However, the aging of employees is very serious, there are many retired workers, and the employee benefits are very good..."
Su Mingzhe listened and understood what was going on.
It has been more than a hundred years since the overthrow of the Qing Dynasty in the last century and the re-establishment of China.
The social issue of "aging" is not just a problem for two supermarkets, but also an issue that needs to be considered by the entire society.
No wonder the government let itself acquire two highly profitable supermarkets.
"Actually, it's not just these reasons."
Seeing that neither of them looked very good-looking, Chi San couldn't help but said:
"The development of e-commerce in recent years has also taken away business from many supermarkets."
Su Mingzhe nodded slightly, these reasons all exist objectively.
However, when you lose money in business, you need to consider the objective reasons, but the most important thing is to look at the subjective reasons.
Su Mingzhe asked: "Does our supermarket have its own e-commerce platform?"
"Yes, but there isn't much business."
Although Si Teng is very smart, he does not have much talent for business.
"Leave this to me, I can't handle this supermarket business."
Su Mingzhe thought for a while and came up with a few ideas, which he sent to the CEO of the company group on his mobile phone, asking him to quickly come up with a feasible plan based on the method he said.
Sometimes, although a century-old store represents the brand and honor, it also represents the rigid operation of the organization and the overstaffing.
The supermarket problem is easy to solve.
Even for Su Mingzhe, this is nothing.
However, the problem of social aging, as well as a series of other problems, are constantly getting worse.
If the government does not solve these problems in time and guide people's public opinion, social conflicts will become more and more intense.
For example, there are marches, demonstrations, rising crime rates, low birth rates, low marriage rates, and even negative population growth rates.
These problems are common in China and will occur.
Si Teng felt much better after seeing the man solve the supermarket's money-losing problem by dividing it by two.
Su Mingzhe took Si Teng to the West Lake and took a boat fishing.
The Huafang was the same one built with rosewood in the 1930s. The total cost at that time was as high as more than 30 million, which amounted to more than 3 million U.S. dollars at that time.
There are three floors on the upper deck and two floors on the lower deck, a total of five floors.
The ship is fifty-eight meters long from bow to stern, and sixteen meters wide at its widest point.
Among them, more than 500 square meters of rosewood were used.
If we were to use rosewood to build a boat like this now, the material cost would be over 2 billion.
If we add in other expenses, it would be impossible to do it without three billion.
Well, the exchange rate between the Chinese currency and the US dollar is now three to two.
In other words, converted into U.S. dollars, the cost price is also two billion U.S. dollars.
The cost of building a conventionally powered aircraft carrier is approximately this amount.
A painting boat is equal to an aircraft carrier!
Nothing wrong!
It's a pity that when fishing in such an expensive boat, you should not be able to catch anything, but you still can't catch it.
