It was also afternoon, and the Beihai villa area on the outskirts of Guanghui City was bathed in bright sunshine."
This villa standing on a hill has an excellent location. Standing by the pool of the villa, you can see a blue and tranquil sea. This is a true view of facing the sea, with spring flowers blooming. This is not "The Ninth"
The mansions in "Mainland" can be compared.
Gu Yucai walked out of the constant-temperature swimming pool and wrapped his fat body in a white and soft bath towel.
Years of pampered and affluent life have made him fat and big-eared. The physical examination report half a year ago pointed out that he has many hidden diseases. The doctor recommended that he exercise more and lose weight to lower his blood lipids and blood pressure. Therefore, whenever he is free, he will
Have a nice swim in your own swimming pool.
He believes that swimming can help you lose weight because it is a natural way to lose weight.
In his mind, the concept of "purely natural" means that he doesn't need to spend money. He doesn't like spending money, but that doesn't mean he won't spend money. On the contrary, when it's time to spend money, he spends a lot of money without frowning. He thinks it shouldn't be done.
When spending money, he won't give out a single credit point.
This has something to do with his poor background many years ago. At that time, he had not yet come to Tianxing. When he was very young, his mother ran away with a rich man, leaving behind his old and helpless father.
Stay and live on a remote planet.
His father was a hawker, but he was very business-savvy and very frugal. At least Gu Yucai thought that his father was very frugal.
There was one incident that he still remembered vividly. In his early years, his old father paid a very high immigration fee to the federal government in order to immigrate to the planet Venus of the God of Righteousness, and he took him to the airport on the first day of the spacecraft's takeoff.
Since it was already late at night when we arrived, the father and son were tired and hungry after a long journey, so it stands to reason that they should find a small hotel to have a good rest at this time.
But the old father decided not to spend such wasted money. After all, accommodation near the airport is much more expensive than ordinary places. So what did they do?
The father and son bought two large bowls of Chaos with a lot of chili and sesame oil. After eating, they ran back and forth under the street lights on a cold night, feeling white.
Adding too much chili pepper is to refresh yourself so that you will not fall asleep immediately; and running in the winter night is to generate heat so that you will not be frozen; in this way, you can not only eat and drink enough, but also save on accommodation expenses.
This incident greatly affected Gu Yucai's life. He also learned "frugality" from his father. If a businessman wants to make a fortune, he must learn to be "frugal".
Maybe he doesn't know enough about this word. The real meaning of frugality is: neither extravagance nor waste, nor treating yourself badly.
His so-called frugality is actually "abuse" to a certain extent. Sometimes he not only abuses himself, but also abuses others.
Later, the old father became seriously ill, and although he was sent to the hospital in time, he eventually passed away. Later, Gu Yucai saved a large amount of money and immigrated to Tianxing.
When he was young, he, like Xiao Wu, both lived in the slums of Guanghui City. But what made him different from Xiao Wu was that he inherited his father's shrewdness and harshness, and quickly transformed from a street vendor into a shop.
The little boss.
At that time, Gu Yucai was actually very diligent, and his diligence was also appreciated by a woman. That woman was his first and only wife.
The reason for this marriage was not because he loved his wife, but because once they were married, he would own three shops.
If Haidong hadn't punched his brother-in-law to death many years later, he might have developed better now. That was a setback when he started his business. In fact, it's not even a setback. It's an accident. But this
It does not affect his starting point.
Gu Yucai disposed of his assets and opened a company. This company is the predecessor of the current New Energy Group Company. From then on, Gu Yucai's career started.
Two more years later, the company was developing relatively well, but it entered a bottleneck state again. This bottleneck was that he had a lot of spare money on hand, and he didn't know which field would be better to invest this money in.
At this time, a friend jumped out and introduced him: You might as well invest this money in "The Ninth Continent".
Gu Yucai also knew about "The Ninth Continent", but he felt that the risk was very high, because he always felt that "The Ninth Continent" was too illusory, and the right way to do something in the real world was actually quite correct.
But his friend's encouragement moved him again: If you have money that is idle, you can't have children, and investing in unfamiliar fields is more risky. Putting it into "The Ninth Continent" will be more likely to produce miraculous results. After all, the virtual world is easier
A miracle happens.
It was at that time that Mr. Zheng's New Century received funding from Gu Yucai. The funds totaled 30 million credit points, which would be converted into 30 dragon coins.
To today's new century, 30 dragon coins may be worth that much just a random word from Gu Xiaoyue, but to the new century at that time, it was undoubtedly a life-saving sum of money.
After that, New Century developed rapidly, and Gu Yucai's energy was invested elsewhere. However, representatives of New Century frequently contacted him in real life and assured him: Please rest assured that your investment will be profitable.
Huge rewards.
Gu Yucai actually didn't care. His company's business was booming, but at this time another accident happened and he had no time to care.
His wife secretly withdrew more than 20,000 credit points and went to the mall to buy a discounted bracelet without his consent. When Gu Yucai learned about this, he handed his wife a divorce agreement as soon as possible.
Their life was not hard before marriage, but they were not necessarily very happy after marriage. As for the divorce, both parties were neither happy nor sad. They just signed the papers calmly and went their separate ways.
Anyway, Gu Yucai never talked about marriage from then on, and his friends did not dare to introduce single girls to him. In fact, he was almost not close to women, because he never had much interest in women.
Interest, the only thing he was interested in was how to make more money, and at that time he had already come into contact with the most important person in his life - Gao Tianfeng, the young master of the Gao family.
After knowing that the Gao family's wealth was huge, Gu Yucai had a fierce fight with Mr. Gao.
Another advantage of Gu Yucai is that he is particularly good at observing people's opinions and looking at people's preferences.
Mr. Gao has no other hobbies except the bite under his crotch. Moreover, Mr. Gao is not particular about beautiful women. What he cares about is difficult challenges. The more he looks down on his beauties, the more he wants to conquer them.
It happened that Gu Yucai was not lewd, and he also liked to help him find beauties. As they got acquainted with each other, Mr. Gao felt that this man was on the right track, so he pointed out a clear path to Gu Yucai: Lao Gu, you little kid
It's profitable to run a construction company. Just make energy products. I guarantee you will make a fortune.
So far, New Energy Energy Development Group has been formally established.
Gu Yucai had the protection of the Gao family, so it was easy to open up the situation. It was smooth sailing at first, but then Gu Yucai was surprised to find that New Century had truly fulfilled his original promise and directly repaid him with money.
Kind deeds.
In the beginning, New Century could only repay him a few hundred thousand credit points every month. Then this number began to increase month by month, and it was rising at an alarming rate. It was not until a certain month that it remitted him 80 million credit points that he could
Completely shocked.
From this, he officially invited the representatives of New Century to visit the company. In addition to the warm hospitality, Gu Yucai inquired in detail about every detail of New Century in "The Ninth Continent". In the end, he sighed: There is no fun in it.
It’s no smaller than the real world.
In fact, New Power Group’s business is very simple – mining crystals!
When Starfleet discovered the Happy System, the detection system detected that Tianxing had the most abundant spar resources.
But the risks of mining crystals are extremely high. Gold mines are child's play compared with it, because the crystals in reality are also buried deep underground, and the soil quality in various parts of the sky is completely different, and some are still unknown substances. New power
Even if the group has obtained the mining qualification, sometimes the quality of the spar dug out is not high, so the initial investment will be in vain, because in the end you will not make any money at all, and some projects are even losing money.
However, Gu Yucai can still understand this. High risks lead to high returns, but high returns often come with high risks.
In fact, his New Power Group is much better than other private companies. Because of Gao Gongzi's relationship, the Ministry of Energy and Security often issues mining qualifications to him. In fact, he started earlier than other companies in this regard, and his team and hardware facilities are
First-class level, so New Power Group always gives priority to obtain purchase orders from the federal government.
It is absolutely unrealistic to say that relying on the Gao family can keep going smoothly like this forever. Gu Yucai also encountered a Waterloo in his career.
Seven years ago, a serious safety accident occurred at the offshore drilling station of New Power Group in the Eastern Hemisphere of Tianxing. The base station under the sea was not shut down in time due to excessive energy overload, resulting in a big explosion in the base station and the drilling station on the sea surface sank directly.
.
This news attracted great attention from the federal government, and a special investigation team was set up to investigate the accident.
Equipment and facilities such as drilling stations and base stations caused Gu Yucai to suffer a lot, but the next two side effects really killed him.
One of them is that 26 employees were killed in this accident, and New Power Group was required to pay compensation in accordance with the law. This astronomical figure basically made Gu Yucai's years of hard work come to nothing.
Another side effect is even greater. The federal government not only reduced the mining qualification of New Power Group to 0 points, but also imposed a huge fine because this accident caused severe pollution of the environment. On Tianxing, this crime was from a certain
To a certain extent, it is worse than murder and arson. The court can even convict him of crimes against humanity, because your behavior is endangering all mankind.
Of course, the court did not rule this way. After all, the old board was not malicious and the real cause of the accident was misoperation.
It was also in this year that Li Dalong and Jiang Hua's "Kong Ya Bounty Hunter Unit" came into being, traveling to multiple planets in the five main galaxies to raise funds for Xiao Wu to immigrate to Tianxing. (To be continued...)
