Chapter 168 Xiangzi recognizes his mother
When Jin Dajian heard Xiangzi and his daughter say that they wanted to buy a better yard, he turned around and walked up to them and asked.
"Why do you want to buy a yard? Isn't our yard big enough for the two of you to live in?"
Jin Wu Gou said to her father, "Dad, it's like this. Xiangzi thinks that if we want to get married, we should at least buy a clean and tidy yard. Look at our yard, it's already a mess. Besides, there are more than a dozen families renting in my house. It doesn't look like a new home at all!"
Jin Dajian rejected his daughter's idea without even thinking about it:
"No, this courtyard has been passed down in our Jin family for more than 200 years. We have had this courtyard since the time of Taizu. This courtyard was bestowed by the emperor and was once a supreme honor.
Although it is dilapidated now, if we spend some money to repair it, it will still look very grand!
You can use the money you spent on buying the yard to spruce it up. It won't be brand new. As for those people who rent the yard as you mentioned, you can just give them some money and ask them to move out.
Anyway, they told me a while ago that they didn't miss me anymore and asked me to lower the salary. Now we take this opportunity to ask them to move out. Each of them will give them some moving expenses. This is not considered bullying them, right? Besides, it's easy for them to find a place to live!"
Jin Da Gege and Xiangzi thought about it and realized that it was easy to find a shabby house in Beijing now.
You know, because of the war, many people fled and there are many empty houses.
Jin Dajian continued:
"My daughter, don't you know that Xiangzi doesn't know?
We have two more courtyards at the back. We have five courtyards in total. The two courtyards at the back were where my ancestors lived, so I closed them up and didn't rent them out.
Sometimes we just put some flowers in there! If you two get married, we will clean up those two yards. It is very spacious. Not only you two, but also 20 people can live in it without any problem! "
Princess Jin thought about it and realized what her father said was true.
"Or Xiangzi, let's just fix up this yard. My father is right, this yard is very big!"
But neither of them knew that Xiangzi wanted to buy another yard, which meant he wanted to start a seed plan with Kumiko Aso.
If he was in Jin Dajian's big yard, how could he bring Kumiko in? That would be too outrageous.
But now Xiangzi couldn't object, so he had to agree with the opinions of Jin's father and daughter!
As for Kumiko Aso's matter, we'll see when the time comes. Maybe we can rent a place.
"Then let's follow the advice of the eldest princess and Mr. Jin! We will decorate your yard first!"
Jin Wu Gou said angrily: "You still call me Grandpa Jin? You should call me Grandma Brother. At least you should call me Dad!"
Xiangzi blushed and called out in a low voice: "Brother!"
After Jin Dajian heard this, all the wrinkles on his face disappeared!
"Okay, okay, good son-in-law!"
Then he took out a jade pendant from his waist and put it in Xiangzi's hand: "Here, this is the money that A-Brother gave you to change your words. This was a gift from the Empress Dowager Cixi to my family!"
Xiangzi hurriedly took it respectfully, and Princess Jin tied it around his waist.
Xiangzi hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you, mother, for the reward!"
Jin Dajian laughed happily and then went out. He was in a very good mood today. Even if Kong Dashzi insisted on paying 3000 yuan for the flowerpot, he was not going to bargain with him. Who said he was so happy today?
Xiangzi asked Jin Da Gege to take the 10-dollar note to the money shop and cut it into smaller ones for easier use!
Let’s not talk about Xiangzi, he is gathering his strength and preparing for the battle, the seed plan.
These past two days, Gu Wenxuan and Sam have been discussing setting up a trading company in Shanghai.
Sam formally resigned from the foreign company and decided to go to Shanghai with Gu Wenxuan to start a company.
The business of the foreign company itself was not very good, so Sam's resignation was of course approved.
After Sam resigned, Gu Wenxuan asked Sam to buy him a large number of cars and trucks.
Because Gu Wenxuan saw that the Japanese army had trucks equipped in their troops, and their movements were much faster than those of infantry. If he wanted to expand his stronghold in Heping Town, he would need modern equipment, so he asked Sam to buy 50 large trucks from him, and each truck cost 1000 oceans.
Sam also knew how to be grateful to his old boss, so he gave the order of 50 trucks to his old boss. Of course, his old boss was not stingy with the commission, and directly gave him 100 yuan per truck.
So Sam earned 5000 dollars for free before he even started his company, and he was very happy.
It turns out that Mr. Gu's nickname of "God of Wealth" is not for nothing. If you follow him well in the future, you will definitely make a fortune. Maybe he will be the second Hardoon in the future.
Originally, Gu Wenxuan wanted to order two fighter jets.
Sam quickly refused.
He didn't want to recommend such a big purchase order to his old company anymore, so he set up his own maritime trading company. He would make more money if he could do such orders himself in the future.
Sam didn't ask Gu Wenxuan what he was going to do with the plane. He was obviously the captain of a detective team. Although he was now the director of the Special Operations Department, he didn't need a plane.
But Sam understands the principles of doing business very well. Don't ask the buyer why he buys something. As long as people buy, you just need to serve them well, make your money, and don't ask other people's privacy issues.
This is the minimum professional ethics for businessmen.
Gu Wenxuan could read Sam's mind and of course knew what was in Sam's mind. He thought about it and decided that after Sam's overseas trading company was established, he would buy an airplane as the first big order from him and also let Sam find some foreign pilots for training, otherwise the airplane would just be a decoration.
Gu Wenxuan's ideas now are different from before. He wants to train the Sichuan Army to become one of the best military forces in the country. He will neither cooperate with the White Party nor the Red Party. He wants to fight against Japan independently.
Of course, he also needs to build up his own power in the Japanese army.
Gu Wenxuan went to Shanghai with Sam to open a company and look for a location. He also asked for leave from the military police and took a five-day holiday to Shanghai.
Of course, with Liu Zhengqian in his special operations department and Xiangzi watching over him, nothing would normally go wrong.
Besides, at this time, it is the Spring Festival and there are no major actions.
Gu Wenxuan and Samshen flew directly to Shanghai Airport.
Then they looked for a suitable location in the concession to start their company.
Finally, they found a building in the French Concession with three floors and about 3 rooms on each floor.
So Gu Wenxuan occupied the first floor as the investment department of his securities company.
The second floor is Sam's overseas trade and investment company.
The third floor is used as a dormitory for the company's employees.
The annual rent for a building is 2 yuan.
The housing prices in Shanghai are just too high. If it were in Beijing, I’m afraid even 2000 dollars wouldn’t be enough.
The rent of 2 yuan was shared equally by the two companies, which means 1 yuan per person.
Gu Wenxuan generously paid Sam this year's rent in advance.
Gu Wenxuan joked that he would treat Sam to this year's rent, but Sam would have to pay the rent himself in the second year.
Sam thanked Gu Wenxuan happily. Gu Wenxuan paid the rent for this year, so he didn't have any pressure anymore.
He had no pressure to invest in stocks with Gu Wenxuan, and futures could earn him more than 1 dollars if he put a little effort into it.
In fact, from Gu Wenxuan's perspective, as long as he doesn't mess around, making money is easy. He hired Sam just to deceive people.
