After the money arrived, Xia Zekai transferred the money to Toutiao's company account.
At the same time, he also paid a huge amount of taxes, which made him bleed with distress.
At the same time, Kaiyun Investment also transferred the 40 million invested.
But when Song Jinpeng and Guan Yuqing, the financial specialists of Kaiyun Investment, went to the bank to transfer money to Toutiao’s company account, they were both confused.
When did Mr. Luo quietly negotiate this huge investment, it was also the second largest investment since Kaiyun Investment was established.
"Mr. Luo is indeed Mr. Luo, he is not comparable to these little minions." Erren thought to himself.
Luo Xiyun did not hide this matter. She even held a meeting in person to explain the investment to everyone.
Today’s Toutiao is no longer an unknown person. Compared with Jump Network and Zhihu.com, Toutiao is a rising star. They can get part of the shares for 40 million. This deal makes a profit no matter how you look at it.
.
But after the money was invested, Kaiyun Investment's newly wealthy pockets were once again deflated.
But Kaiyun Investment did not stop their crazy investment just because they had no money in their pockets. On the contrary, they went even crazier, and the company's investment specialists were looking for projects everywhere.
In the few days after the investment was completed, Luo Xiyun did not show up again. She has been raising her baby at home.
After the transfer was completed, Xia Zekai called Zhang Yiming and said.
A few days passed smoothly, and the company's sales dropped slightly compared to August's sales.
Even though there were three days in August that were forced to open due to heavy rain, after Jingtong Development Co., Ltd. exposed a donation of 100 million, whether it was the online Jingtong Baby Taobao store or the offline Jingtong Baby direct chain store
, have all ushered in a wave of retaliatory consumption from customers against their companies.
This wave of irrational consumption lasted for a long time, so that the total revenue of Jingtong Development Co., Ltd. in August was not affected by the rain disaster, but the overall sales increased significantly. This also made Xia Zekai and
Every financial and sales staff of Jingtong Development Co., Ltd. has witnessed the madness of customers.
But they were even more grateful for the customers' support for the company. Because of this, Xia Zekai thought that if this kind of thing happens again in the future, Jingtong Development Co., Ltd. must be the first to charge forward and do its best to give back to these lovely people.
"Zekai, everything has been packed. Give grandma and grandpa some of the nutritional supplements in the storage room." Luo Xiyun urged him.
Xia Zekai said: "I took a lot and the trunk is full. Can you stay at home alone?"
"As you said, isn't it true that Geng Yuqin is staying with me at home? Besides, I'm just one month pregnant and I don't run around. What can happen? You can go back without worries." Luo Xiyun waved his hand and said.
She comes from an ordinary family, and she is not a squeamish person. It's not like she has stopped getting pregnant. She just does whatever she needs to do, and she just needs more time to rest.
"Mom, I will miss you." The girl looked at her mother Luo Xiyun with some reluctance, and she almost cried.
Xia Zekai didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Girl, we'll be back in the evening. Then you can see your mother again. Hurry up and get in the car and go."
"It's true!" The girl confirmed again.
Seeing her father nodding, she smiled again.
Tongtong is loading snacks and toys into her schoolbag. Even if she goes out for a day, she can't leave food and toys behind.
Saying goodbye to mom?
It doesn't mean that it doesn't exist, and it's not like she won't come back. She has a big heart.
Xia Weicheng helped his old father get into the car. After they were seated, his mother Zhou Yinghong hesitated again and again and glanced at her daughter-in-law. She was still not at ease that she was here alone and said, "Zekai, why don't you go back?" Already..."
Before she finished speaking, Luo Xiyun interrupted her and said: "Mom, it's okay. You guys should go while it's cool. Come back as soon as possible. Remember to call me when you get there."
The three cars started and left the Ziyu Garden Villa area. After walking for half an hour, they got onto the highway from the intersection of Zhoucheng District Expressway.
The girl looked at the rapidly retreating buildings or trees outside, and the two of them immediately changed their attention.
"Dad, look, it's such a big car." The girl seemed to have discovered a new world, pointing to a truck in front of her that was specially used to transport cars.
Seeing his daughter's startled look, Xia Zekai thought it was quite amusing. He explained to the girl what the car was for so that she wouldn't be so surprised when he saw it again in the future.
To put it bluntly, I still don’t see much, and I feel very surprised when I see everything.
"Dad, can you open this pecan for me?" Tongtong sat obediently in her seat, her attention turning to her schoolbag again.
I opened the zipper of my schoolbag and took out a package of sealed pecans. I wanted to eat them not long after I got in the car.
Xia Zekai quickly opened the packaging bag for her and started eating.
It's better to be lovable when you're eating than talking non-stop.
"Grandma, I can't get the skin off, please do it for me." Tongtong handed her a handful of pecans, her eyes looking longingly at her hands, and her little tongue kept licking her lips.
After Zhou Yinghong saw it, she quickly peeled it off and said, "Eat it quickly."
Seeing Tongtong stuffing one into his mouth, Zhou Yinghong peeled off another one and gave it to the girl. She said, "Girl, you can eat it too."
"Grandma, I don't want to eat, I'm not hungry." The girl didn't answer and continued to look out the window.
Zhou Yinghong gave the freshly peeled pecan to Tongtong again.
After peeling a few more, she felt a little pain in the belly of her fingers. Looking at the half-wrapped pecan, she said to her son: "Zekai, can't you peel the skin off more? Let's eat it now." It’s so laborious to get up, even if it’s a child like Tongtong, they can’t do it themselves.”
Zhou Yinghong originally said it unintentionally, it was just an idea of her own, but after Xia Zekai heard it, she felt that her mother was right, and their company had indeed ignored this point.
Without saying anything, Xia Zekai quickly took out his cell phone and sent a message to Yan Jinghua, Li Mumu, and Lu Huan, asking them to change this.
Although the changes are not big, customers feel different when they eat it.
Just imagine, one has a hard time eating, and many pecans were broken when peeling them. The other peels off the skin easily, puts the whole fruit into his mouth and chews it. Which one is more popular with customers? ?
More than two hours later, the car got off the highway and walked for forty minutes on the newly repaired provincial highway. Xiazhuang was already in sight.
There were people playing there at the entrance of the village. After seeing Xia Zekai and his three cars, someone immediately recognized them: "Oh, isn't that the car of brother Wei Cheng? I remembered that he went to Qicheng's son's house to enjoy himself, right? Back again?"
"The car behind is his son's car, right? Are their whole family back?"
"You guys just chat first, I have to go over and say hello."
When he said this, several people who had been chatting together stopped talking and walked towards Xia Zekai's house at the north end of Xiazhuang.
When they rushed over, Xia Zekai had just taken Yatou and Tongtong out of the car. The two of them were bored in the car all the way. If Tongtong hadn't brought toys and snacks in his schoolbag, they might have made a scene.
"Dad, please slow down." Xia Weicheng supported his old father and asked him to get out of the car slowly.
Seeing that his old father's movements were obviously not as good as before. When he got out of the car, his feet were a little soft on the ground, so he simply took his old father out of the car.
"Uncle Shande, Brother Aicheng, why are you back?"
"That's right, isn't it August 15th the day after tomorrow? You guys will celebrate the 15th in the city and then come back."
"Brother Wei Cheng, are you not used to living in the city again?"
Gu Jian
The few people who came over were talking all over the place.
Xia Weicheng and the others stayed at his son's house for a short time last time and came back because they felt they were not used to it. In fact, they were not the only ones. There were many people in the village who had gone to live with their sons and daughters in the county or city and felt they were not used to it.
Xia Shande smiled "haha" and said, "It's the fifteenth day soon. I'll come back and burn some paper for the old woman."
Xia Zekai called "uncle" a few times to say hello to the people who had just arrived. Before he entered the house, he said directly: "Mom, let's go directly to grandpa's house. I have to go back early in the afternoon."
"Okay, let's go now!" Zhou Yinghong didn't hesitate. She said to her husband Xia Weicheng: "Ze Kai and I are going to his grandma's house. You accompany our father to burn some paper on the grave. Finish your work early and go back early."
Several villagers who had just arrived realized that they had misunderstood when they heard what they said.
Then he changed his tune: "Uncle Shande, you are so old, why did you come back in person?"
"Hey, my niece-in-law hasn't come back this time?" someone asked.
I saw Xia Zekai, and I also saw sisters Yatou and Tongtong, but I didn't see Luo Xiyun.
Zhou Yinghong said: "Girl, her mother just got pregnant and is not feeling well. Please come back next time."
Hearing what Zhou Yinghong said, several villagers looked enviously: "I'm going to have a third child. It's great. Auntie, only your family can afford it. Our kid doesn't even dare to have a second child." born."
"That's right, I can't bear the fine alone."
They chatted endlessly, Xia Weicheng even shared some cigarettes, and Xia Zekai didn't even enter the house, but carried Yatou and Tongtong into the car again.
I said hello to these folks and left.
Looking at the father and son Xia Shande and Xia Weicheng who were left behind, they approached and continued chatting.
While talking, I asked about growing dried fruits.
Due to the heavy rain last month, a lot of farmland in Xiazhuang was flooded, so the harvest was destined to be difficult.
But for the few families who planted dried fruit trees in spring, it was no big deal, and the growth of dried fruit trees was even more prosperous.
Now many people in the village have gone to the village party secretary Lian Jian to inquire about planting dried fruits in autumn after the wheat is harvested. They want to confirm whether Xia Zekai will harvest the dried fruits planted later.
But today I met the real owner, so I didn’t rush to ask.
Xia Shande didn't answer. Xia Weicheng said: "You can just plant it. As long as the quality is good, Zekai and his company will take it. When it grows, we will come over to buy it together. You don't need to do any errands."
"It's true, this is a door-to-door purchase. We even save gas money, and it's such a good thing." A fellow villager in his fifties had a face full of joy.
…
Xia Zekai pointed the way, and Alpha walked towards his grandma's house without stopping.
Yatou and Tongtong refused to sit in the safety seats this time. They felt too suffocated, so they held their hands on the car glass and looked out.
When he sees something he has never seen before, he will scream.
"Dad, haven't you arrived yet?" the girl asked.
Xia Zekai said: "It's almost done, don't worry."
"Oh, I've had enough rides." The girl pouted and said.
"Then what are you taking? Taking a plane?" Xia Zekai teased her.
Who knew that the girl nodded sharply after hearing this: "Flying is great, it's so fast, I like it."
As the father and daughter were chatting, the familiar door of his grandma's house was already in front of them.
There were two polished wooden stakes beside the wall. Two oxen were tied to the stakes, and my grandfather's thin figure walked out from the gate.
Hearing the movement of the car and looking up to see their car, my grandfather was stunned for a moment. When he saw Zhou Yinghong and Xia Zekai getting out of the car, a pure smile appeared on his dark and wrinkled face.
"Erni, Zekai, why are you back?" The old man looked very happy.
Zhou Yinghong's eyes turned a little red when she looked at her old father, who was stooping as he walked.
"Dad, it's almost fifteen, and I won't be able to make it in two days, so I'll come back early to see you."
She asked: "Where is my mother?"
"She doesn't feel very comfortable in the hot weather, and she can't eat. She's lying on the bed. Come in quickly," Grandpa said.
When Zhou Yinghong heard what her old father said, she couldn't stand anymore and hurriedly walked home.
"Grandpa, do you still know me?" the girl asked with a smile.
"There's me, there's me, grandpa, I'll give you some delicious food." Tongtong also jumped up and said.
Looking at the two of them, the smile on Grandpa Zhou Lin's face became even brighter.
"You two little kids are here too. Come in quickly. I'll leave some snacks for you," he said.
As soon as the two little sisters heard this, they ran home quickly.
There was a little pug tied up in the yard. When it saw two strange little ghosts coming in, it barked "bark".
Even if you tie it with a thin iron chain, it can't stop it from jumping back and forth. It has a strong posture of breaking the iron chain to protect the home and the courtyard.
"ah!"
The girl suddenly heard the barking of a dog and was startled. She quickly ran back to find her father.
But Tongtong was different. She heard the puppy barking and looked at the lively little thing. Tongtong's eyes narrowed.
She put her hands to her mouth and shouted loudly: "Woof woof, woof woof woof, woof woof."
He shouted more energetically than a pug.
Unlike her sister, who was timid and frightened and backed away, she rushed over to hug the puppy.
Not to mention, her hand directly scared the pug. The puppy no longer dared to bark or jump around, and kept crawling into its kennel.
"Come out, come out!" Tongtong pointed at the pug in the kennel and yelled.
She also picked up a small stone from the ground and shouted: "If you don't come out again, I will hit you with a stone."
"Tongtong, stop making trouble!" Xia Zekai saw it and quickly pulled his daughter back. This puppy has been raised by his grandma for many years. It used to be very quiet and never barked. Why is it barking now?
What made him even more speechless was that Tongtong got mad at the little pug, and then the little pug turned out to be afraid of her.
Could it be that when a child is over five years old, people say that Tongtong is like this when he is rejected by a dog?
