Chapter 732 Investigating with the Two Great Goddesses
It was really close from Bari to London. Chen Fan thought it was too troublesome to fly, so he simply drove there and it only took a few hours.
The three of them traveled in a Coaster business car, which was more comfortable than flying in first class.
The car not only has comfortable seats, but also a small office area in front.
For convenience, Chen Fan took Xiao Xiao with him and asked her to provide services to everyone in the car.
At the back of the car, there is also a row of sleeping positions.
If you feel too tired from riding in the car, you can always lie down in the back seat for a while.
Zhao Linlin turned on the computer and browsed the recent market conditions. Xiao Xiao poured a glass of red wine for everyone. Such a journey did not feel too tiring.
It took more than five hours to arrive in London. Since she would stay here for two or three days, Xiao Xiao booked a hotel in advance.
The three men divided into two groups, Chen Fan and Ning Xuecheng went to inspect the market, while Zhao Linlin went to the trading building.
Many international futures are traded here, which is why Chen Fan arranged for Zhao Linlin to come over.
Of course, Zhou Yufei also followed, but she was sitting in the car behind.
Ning Xuecheng was a workaholic and couldn't care less about traveling and traveling, so he called Chen Fan over to see the Superman Group's investment project here.
They do not have any contact with each other, but only conduct personal inspections.
Many people used to say that this place is a paradise for the rich, but Chen Fan didn't feel anything special here.
Perhaps this place once had its glory, but judging from its current development, it is obviously incomparable to other places.
The two spent a few days inspecting the projects invested by the Superman Group. They mainly focused on infrastructure construction here, but Chen Fan found that everything here was far from beautiful.
In order to get closer to the truth, the two went to a small restaurant to have dinner.
The owners of the restaurant are a Donghua couple and two students who work part-time in their spare time.
Hearing that they were also from Donghua, Chen Fan asked them some information.
The cost of studying abroad is very high. In order to reduce the burden on their families, many people choose to work part-time.
Because the wages here are relatively high, you can earn a good income even if you just wash dishes for a day.
The two students in the store were a man and a woman. Chen Fan asked them if they were boyfriend and girlfriend, and both of them shook their heads in unison.
The boy said, "The cost of falling in love is too high now, and I don't have the conditions. My parents are just ordinary office workers. I'd better take it seriously and finish my studies. I'll talk about falling in love later."
Ning Xuecheng glanced at him. This boy was not young, he was probably in his twenties or eighties.
Although he is very diligent, something can be seen from his face, which is helplessness about life.
I heard they said that studying here would cost hundreds of thousands a year, and my parents’ combined salary was only one or two hundred thousand, so it was impossible to afford all the expenses.
He also asked the two of them, "Are you also coming here to study?"
Chen Fan said: "Yes, this is my girlfriend."
Ning Xuecheng: "..."
She did not answer the call, but asked the girl that the situation of girls was not much better than that of boys. Her family conditions were not very good, but she wanted to study abroad.
It’s too complicated at home, but I hope I’ll have more advantages after studying abroad.
Regarding the issue of falling in love, she could only smile bitterly, "At our age, who doesn't want to have a romantic love?"
"It's a pity that reality doesn't allow it. I don't like boys whose family conditions are too poor. Now I have to work part-time to support my study abroad expenses. It's really unnecessary to find someone like me."
"Rich plus rich can only make you richer, while poor plus poor can only make you poorer."
"And if I want to find someone with good conditions, others may not like me."
This girl is in her mid-twenties, and she can return to China in one year.
Her dream is to go back and take the civil service exam and have a stable job.
As for love, maybe there will be one.
With his status as a civil servant and his academic qualifications, he is not afraid of finding a boyfriend with good conditions.
After listening to their words, Chen Fan and Ning Xuecheng did not laugh, but felt a heavy pressure.
Especially Ning Xuecheng, she thinks more.
After coming out of the hotel, the two came to a bridge.
A gust of evening wind blew Ning Xuecheng's hair, dancing lightly.
She stood on the edge of the guardrail and lamented, "Our country is still not strong enough, and young people's lives are so stressful, which limits their development." Bayi Chinese website
Chen Fan put his hand on her shoulder, "You are starting to worry about the country and the people again!"
"As ordinary people, we can only try our best to help the world when we are rich, and to live alone when we are poor."
Of course he knew that Ning Xuecheng's perspective and starting point were different because her family environment shaped her thoughts.
But a person's life must be fought by oneself to be meaningful. If all the roads are paved for you by others, then you will lose a lot of life experience.
The two returned to the hotel, and Zhao Linlin was still busy.
"Mr. Zhao, how are you? Have you gained anything these days?"
Chen Fan put a snack on the table, which was the bag he brought back specially for her just now.
Smelling the smell of her hometown, Zhao Linlin exclaimed, "Where did it come from?"
"We passed a small restaurant and had something to eat."
Zhao Linlin didn't mind, so she opened the package and started eating it. She liked the spicy taste, but it wasn't too spicy.
“My overall opinion of the investment environment here is very average, and I don’t have much desire.”
This is Zhao Linlin’s summary.
Ning Xuecheng also said, "It is indeed not as promising as Western Europe."
"Then let's just treat it as a trip. It's not bad to see the scenery."
Since the investment environment is like this, just stay for a few days and then leave.
Ning Xuecheng suddenly asked, "Chen Fan, what do you think of Superman Group's investment here?"
Chen Fan thought about it, "Maybe they have their own opinions, and they might cause a big fight here."
"We won't say anything, just pretend we haven't been here."
The three of them smiled, and Zhao Linlin closed her notebook, "Then let's go have a day out tomorrow?"
"Okay! As long as you are happy."
These two workaholics actually thought of having fun, and of course Chen Fan was happy.
So he told Xiao Xiao, "Go and prepare swimsuits for the two bosses."
The two of them yelled at him almost at the same time, "What are you thinking about?"
Ning Xuecheng would never dare to wear something so revealing, and neither would Zhao Linlin.
But he really had an idea to see how they looked in swimsuits.
This is actually just a larger island country. Apart from a few famous universities and seaside scenery, there is nothing interesting. However, the first industrial revolution in global history took place here, ushering in a new era.
It's just that Chen Fan now has no desire to conquer this place.
