When Xia Zekai came back from the company, he saw his wife and two daughters playing games in the yard.
Yatou and Tongtong were chasing after him, and his wife was running in front. The two sisters would shout from time to time: "I've caught you, I've caught mommy, mommy, run away."
Mother Zhou Yinghong cut a large watermelon, put it in a large stainless steel basin, took it out and placed it under the shade of a tree. She also invited Cui Xiaofeng and the others to come over and eat.
"Xiyun, stop running away, isn't it hot?" Zhou Yinghong called to her.
Before Luo Xiyun could speak, the girl shouted: "Grandma, I'm not hot, I still want to play with my mother."
"Look, your clothes are soaked. It's not hot yet. Come here quickly." Zhou Yinghong waved her hand, but it didn't work. The girl didn't listen to her at all.
Tongtong pretended not to hear and continued to run forward.
When they saw their father's car driving in, the two little sisters stopped chasing their mother, turned around and rushed towards their father's car.
When Wang Yi saw this situation, he skillfully stepped on the brake, then turned off the car, took out the key, and waited for his boss Xia Zekai to get out of the car and leave with his two daughters who rushed into his arms.
, Wang Yicai drove the car to the parking area again.
"Zekai, hurry up and bring them over to eat a piece of watermelon." Zhou Yinghong shouted.
"Mom, where are my grandpa and dad?" Xia Zekai asked without seeing them or hearing anything.
Zhou Yinghong said: "Your dad pushed your grandpa to go to the park opposite, so don't worry about them."
"Girl, Tongtong, you two come down quickly and see how hot it is." Zhou Yinghong saw beads of sweat on her two granddaughters' foreheads and water stains on their clothes. She muttered, "You don't feel uncomfortable either.
"
"Mom, let them run around and eat more."
Luo Xiyun shouted: "You take a rest first, I will take them both to change clothes."
She was also sweating a lot.
By the time the three of them came down after taking a bath and changing clothes, Xia Weicheng had already pushed the old man Xia Shande back. When the two little girls saw the old man, they ran over and played tricks in front of the old man.
"Zekai, someone from my hometown called today and asked them if they are planting dried fruits now, will you be able to harvest them then?" Xia Weicheng mentioned.
After hearing what his father said, Xia Zekai was stunned for a moment: "Dad, who has figured it out again?"
"Your Uncle Cheng, you may not remember, but his nephew is your brother Liang, the one who repairs cars here." Xia Weicheng mentioned.
With such a reminder, Xia Zekai responded: "Okay, just tell him that as long as the quality is good, I will definitely accept it."
"But why did he think of growing dried fruits at this time?" Xia Zekai was puzzled.
Grandpa Xia Shande reminded me: "I probably saw the news interviewing you, or maybe Liangliang told him about it. Anyway, I can't run away for these two reasons."
After all, Xia Shande had lived a long time and had seen everything thoroughly. He immediately guessed the reason.
It was exactly what he said. When Xia Liang was watching the news, he accidentally saw the news about Liu Changhong and Zhou Wenyi visiting Jingtong Development Co., Ltd., and also saw Xia Zekai's promise in the news, and then remembered what he heard from his hometown some time ago.
Someone mentioned that someone in the village was growing dried fruits, and he figured out that growing dried fruits was more profitable than growing food.
When Xia Zekai heard what his grandfather said, he came back to his senses: "Dad, if someone calls again from home, just tell them."
"But the ugly words are ahead. Don't fool me with defective products, otherwise I will turn my back on you when the time comes."
Hearing what his son said, Xia Weicheng also nodded, thinking the same thing in his heart.
My son helps the family wholeheartedly, but he cannot let his son suffer.
In the evening, we had an ordinary home-cooked meal. After the meal, those who should watch TV watched TV and those who should chat chatted. Yatou and Tongtong did not sleep. Yatou played tricks and came to Xia Zekai and said to her excitedly: "Dad
, let me dance for you!”
She was learning and practicing with Geng Yuqin for the first time, and she was full of excitement and desire to express herself.
"Okay, did you learn from your Aunt Geng?" Xia Zekai asked her.
The girl said 'hmm' and said, "Dad, I'm so awesome. Aunt Geng even praised me for being smart!"
Seeing her proud look, Xia Zekai couldn't bear to challenge her innocence.
The girl had just started studying with Geng Yuqin for a few days, but she didn't even have a good foundation, let alone coherent movements. After stumbling through a few movements, she looked at Xia Zekai expectantly.
.
"Pah, pah, pah, pah"
Xia Zekai applauded against her will and praised her: "This girl dances so well!"
But Tongtong, who was watching from the side, said shamelessly: "Sister dances so ugly."
"Tongtong, I'll beat you up!" The girl became furious, turned around, yelled and chased after her.
The two sisters started circling around the sofa in the living room on the first floor again.
Xia Zekai told his wife about Huang Ying and her husband. Luo Xiyun said: "How to deal with it? We can't get along and want a divorce?"
Gusuo
"Who knows, I'd say life is getting better and I'm free and busy!" Xia Zekai said.
Luo Xiyun thought so too.
"Zekai, I have now invested in Zhihu and Jump Network. Forget about Huaban.com. I went on an on-site inspection and found that it is not working. The audience is too limited and there is no market!" Luo Xiyun told him.
Xia Zekai asked her: "Then where did you get the money?"
Luo Xiyun said: "It's a pledge loan. I pledged the shares of 'Yixing' and got 50 million."
When she said this, Xia Zekai immediately sat upright and said, "How did you get so much money?"
"How much money was invested in those two projects?" Xia Zekai had a serious expression on his face.
Although Zhihu later became quite famous, it had only just opened its website not long ago. Whether it could survive or not was a matter of debate. Could it be that his wife was stupid and invested tens of millions in it?
He was cursing in his heart, and then he heard his wife say: "Zhihu invested 3 million and got 30% of the shares."
"Jump Network invested 5 million and got 25% of the shares."
Xia Zekai thought about it in his mind and said, "It's not cheap either."
Based on her investment price, Zhihu is worth 10 million and Jump Network is worth 20 million.
Luo Xiyun said: "It's okay. You can't get so many shares without a premium. From various aspects of inspection, I am still more optimistic about these two companies."
His wife had said so, so Xia Zekai stopped mentioning it. He asked, "You only spent 8 million in total. What did you do with so much money?"
Luo Xiyun said matter-of-factly: "I can't invest in these two companies and be done with it. I'm not allowed to invest in other companies."
"Then have you thought about how to pay it back later?" Xia Zekai asked her.
Luo Xiyun had already suspected the case. She said: "I'll pay it off in installments first. I'll see if the price of 'Yixing' becomes suitable after a while, so I'll sell the shares."
She said: "For me, it is enough to use 'Yixing' to get the name of 'Kayun Investments' out there. I don't expect to make much money from 'Yixing'."
Xia Zekai was impressed by his wife's decisiveness.
He knows that his wife's idea is right. As an investment company, it is impossible for you to eat an investment from the head to the tail.
Enough is enough. You must not only ensure profits but also stop losses. Money cannot be created out of thin air. You must create a virtuous cycle.
You can't just find a third party to raise money when you no longer need it, and then raise money again. That's unrealistic.
"Daughter-in-law, this is the right thing to do, do it well!"
Xia Zekai said with a smile: "Maybe one day Kaiyun's investment will become bigger, and I will have to borrow some money from you."
"I'm waiting." Luo Xiyun said confidently.
She is not stupid, and she has a decisive personality. She never looks forward or backward in doing things. This can be seen from the beginning when she took the Six Sigma black belt exam, applied for a job, and even the subsequent internal battles at Aidili Co., Ltd.
Among those who were in the same class as his wife and applied for the department manager position at Aideli Co., Ltd., only his wife was promoted to senior quality manager.
Xia Zekai has always agreed with a saying that people's luck may be good for a period of time, but luck cannot represent strength.
In the following days, everything was calm and Jingtong Development Co., Ltd. was still moving forward at its own pace.
Many people are looking forward to what kind of policies the government will give to Jingtong Development Co., Ltd.
But they were disappointed. They didn't know whether it was because the policy hadn't been released yet, or because Jingtong Development Co., Ltd. had been hiding it and not announcing it to the outside world. There was no news on the market.
However, all districts and counties under the rule of Qicheng have begun to call on people to plant dried fruits.
Staff from the Municipal Propaganda Department personally went to various districts and counties to promote this area. The leaders in charge of agriculture also actively cooperated and explained the above policies and the benefits of growing dried fruits to each township level.
In order to promote large-scale planting of dried fruits, these people also put a lot of thought into it, but they did not force it. They held the idea that we have done a good job in publicity and it is the people's own business to plant or not.
Some people are far-sighted and courageous, and they choose to grow dried fruits.
Some people simply go directly to the countryside, contract land at an average price of 800 yuan per mu, and then use it all to grow dried fruits.
There are also people who are stubborn and believe that there is no guarantee at all in growing dried fruits. Even without money, they still stubbornly choose to grow food crops.
This is a microcosm of the stories that happened in various districts and counties. Xia Zekai didn't know these things.
He is currently busy attending his little nephew's rice feast.
Some places celebrate the full moon, some places celebrate the hundred days, and Qicheng celebrates the 12-day rice banquet, which basically has the same meaning, to join in the fun and send blessings.
Zhao Ting finally went to Ziguang Pavilion and asked the master to name his son Zhao Zhengguang.
