Chapter 242 People are living well now
Li Yuan must have used exaggerated words, mainly because he didn't want Zhou Ranran to stop.
Now is clearly not the time.
It’s still true to say this after you’re fifty.
If she stops now, her future identity will be the child's mother, nothing else.
No one knows how her mentality will change over time.
Even if the power around him got out of control, Li Yuan was confident that he could make arrangements for his sons, but it was hard to say about his grandchildren.
Not everyone is Jiang Yiling, and Jiang Yiling will also change after having a child.
The only thing that remained unchanged was that Li Yuan spent several hundred million on a meal.
…
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, I go to my mother’s house.
Because Li Yuan didn't go back, Jiang Yiling and Zhou Juan went there.
When he was in the third grade of junior high school, Li Yuan had dinner with some childhood friends. Halfway through the meal, Liu Hao ran over.
Li Yuan cheerfully asked about the recent situation.
On the fourth day of the New Year, he said hello to Zhou Ranran and asked his father Zhou Youfang to come and look after the chickens and ducks every day. Li Yuan took his grandparents to Jiangzhou. After all, those hundreds of millions could not be wasted, and they only needed to look after them for three days.
When we went there, there were three people squeezed in the back row, but overall it was still spacious.
When we came here, the rooms of the two old people had also been cleaned up. Anyway, there would be many occasions for us to stay here this year.
After Jiang Yiling gives birth to a child, the two old people will have to stay here for half a month before they are satisfied.
At seven o'clock in the morning on the sixth day of the New Year, Jiang Yiling went back first, followed by Li Wanhe and Zhou Juan.
It was after eight o'clock before Li Yuan took the two elderly people there.
It was the first time that Li Yuan saw the Thirteen Protectors in their entirety. Each of them had a rosy face and looked very blessed.
Jiang Yuanqiao was an exception, looking particularly haggard.
Today's event is nominally an engagement.
It's really no different than getting married.
It’s just that there is no traditional wedding ceremony, and in fact, the rice has already been cooked.
If Li Yuan wants to regret his decision in the future, he must consider today's witnesses carefully.
Not only his elders, but also Jiang Yiling's elders.
Business is business, and life is life.
You should have your own set of solutions to things in life.
You can't, Li Yuan, just because you have money, go back on your promise, right?
No matter how rich or powerful you are, if you regret being with Jiang Yiling in the future, you will be criticized by others.
With Jiang Yuanqiao's introduction, Li Yuan got to know the other seven or eight "Thirteen Guardians" whom he didn't know.
There are four tables in total today, two tables for the elders and two tables for the younger generations.
Li Yuan's parents are in charge of the elders, and their main function is to see how much Li Wanhe can drink, after all, everyone present is quite good at it.
Li Yuan was much more relaxed. Jiang Yiling introduced him to some of her childhood playmates. Although Jiang Yiling became more and more withdrawn because of her personality, she gradually made contact with them until high school. After entering college, she seldom went home, so the number of times they met became less and less.
This group of third generations has considerable energy. Some are still in college, some have already successfully landed a job and are ready to go to their elders at any time.
But those are only exceptions. The vast majority of people are just muddling through.
For example, Hou Wenbin nominally works in his parents' company, but in fact they don't want him to fool around all the time and get into trouble accidentally.
Jiang Yuanqiao asked about inviting these people when he wrote the invitation, and he finally agreed.
As for what Jiang Yuanqiao said to the Thirteen Protectors, he had no idea.
This matter itself was Jiang Yuanqiao's tentative intervention in himself, looking for helpers for Jiang Yiling.
I am willing to get married, so what does these dowries mean to me?
Moreover, if it is used well, it will be much more convenient to do anything in the future, and there is no need to assign Yu Yue and Yao Yingsong to do everything.
Yao Yingsong will leave sooner or later, and there is a high chance that he will be promoted step by step in the future. It may not be a good thing for him to do too many things for himself.
Yu Yue is good at handling company-level matters, but anything else is not realistic and he is too busy to handle it.
That night, Jiang Yiling said to Li Yuan with a smile: "Husband, you won't regret it in the future, right?"
"What are you regretting?"
"Marry me, just wait two more years."
"I'm afraid that if I say I regret it, my bones will be ground into powder the next morning!"
"Haha, who made me so good? Everyone has my back."
Li Yuan’s popularity is indeed not that good.
The Thirteen Guardians knew what kind of person he was.
His parents and grandparents also heard gossip about him all day long. Although they were not sure, they could not help but side with Jiang Yiling and felt that Jiang Yiling was wronged by being with him.
"What's the point of having a backer? I just like you and want to spend my whole life with you."
Jiang Yiling: “???”
When did this
Still so corny...
For Li Yuan, it is a talisman after all.
Because if something happens to him in the future, he will basically be dead.
Jiang Yiling was able to save his life, probably because her parents earned her a golden medal of immunity from death.
Li Yuan believed that he would never need to use this function, but having it and not having it were two completely different concepts.
"Then remember to marry me in two years!"
"good!"
"Come on, let's go open the presents."
When it comes to opening gifts, what’s important is not what the gift is, but the word “opening”.
Anyone's curiosity about the unknown or desire for new things will be revealed at this moment.
Boxes of all sizes filled the room, probably about sixty or seventy of them.
There are cheap supplements in it, only tens of thousands of yuan per box.
There are precious jewels and jades, ranging from hundreds of thousands, millions to tens of millions...
"This one is for Mom... This gold one is for Grandma..."
"This one too... this one too... well... I'll keep this one for myself..."
…
"It seems like there's nothing for Dad and Grandpa, how about we go buy some ourselves?"
Li Yuan said: "You don't need to buy it. They will have it in a few months."
"What? A child?"
"Yes, otherwise they wouldn't want anything even if we prepared something for them. In their eyes, the most important were money, cigarettes, and alcohol.
Now it has become that children, cigarettes, alcohol... jewelry, etc. are nothing in their eyes. They don’t even need to buy new clothes. They can just make do with what they have.”
"Hmm...are all men like this?"
"Not really. There are quite a few differences, but my family is a little more normal."
Except for Li Yuan, no one in his family has a corrupt character. Only his father will go to the card table when he has nothing to do, especially during the holidays. He can restrain himself at other times.
"Yeah, I love mom and dad so much."
"What do you like?"
Jiang Yiling smiled and said, "Mom is very considerate, but Dad is very old-fashioned. He was too embarrassed to accept anything I gave him."
"What about me?"
"hehe……"
These two simple words already represent Jiang Yiling's understanding of Li Yuan.
"Come, come, let's go to the bridal chamber! I'll let you hehe..."
…
"Hubby, let me ask you something. How many bridal chambers have you had?"
"Of course there's only one. Who do you think I am?"
“Heh… um…”
…
"Hubby, it's not all because of my parents. When I first got together with you, I really felt a sense of security in you. I'm telling the truth..."
"Well, I believe you."
"You believed it so quickly?"
"Yeah, I've already climbed halfway up the mountain, and you suddenly told me that I can only continue to climb up if I top up, otherwise I will fall down and die. What can I do? Hey... I believed you, why did you stop?"
…
On the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, Li Wanhe followed the two elderly people home.
Li Yuan also started his first day at work.
The company is still in Jiangzhou for the time being, and the capital will be the location of Qingtian Group.
At the company gate, Li Yuan came early in the morning and gave red envelopes of 800 yuan to all employees at work.
The first day of the A-share market opening did not see a good start.
Because A-shares don’t care about these things, green is green.
In the new year, a series of economic data met expectations.
Western financial data, in particular, was far worse than expected.
Anyway, it has nothing to do with Li Yuan. He just made a few dollars from it and it can't affect such a large scale.
To put it bluntly, their financial structure has come to an end.
On the surface, the price-to-earnings ratios of U.S. stocks are generally 20 to 30 times, which is much lower than that of A-shares, making them a true value investment.
But it’s not like that at all.
There are many more companies losing money than profitable ones in the U.S. stock market!
Moreover, the so-called price-to-earnings ratio has almost no high reference value.
When capital wants to push you forward, it will make your data look particularly good. Even if your market value rises to two trillion US dollars, it can still suppress your price-to-earnings ratio.
The price-to-earnings ratio is for those who believe in value investing.
A company that made $20 billion in profit last year could lose $50 billion the next year.
The capital market speaks in terms of final profits, not floating gains and losses.
Some people say that the U.S. stock market will continue to rise for ten years, and as long as you hold on for a few years, you will definitely make money.
The person who said this is purely a hindsight person.
Do you have the guts to let him say this after the U.S. stock market crashed four times in 2020?
Talking about the past from the perspective of the future, there are stocks worth buying at any node.
If you had bought bank stocks ten years ago, even after two stock market crashes, the value would have doubled after ten years including dividends.
If we couldn't predict the future in the past, we don't have the ability to do so now either.
Unless you learn and improve during this time...
The most frightening thing is that only age is increasing.
Li Yuan called Yao Yingsong to his office and said, "Get ready. The third phase will begin soon."
Yao Yingsong was stunned for a moment and said, "Boss, don't you want to take a rest?"
Li Yuan shook his head. "The market is not good this year. Let's do it in advance. I'm afraid it will get harder and harder to do it the longer you put it off."
"Okay, I'll arrange it right away."
Yao Yingsong admires Li Yuan's execution ability very much.
Are you busy with work on your first day at work?
Since the last time, even if he said he would start the third phase in three to five months, no one would say anything.
This is the power of discourse.
Those who underestimated him either ran away, went to jail, or struggled in pain.
The best will be slapped in the face.
After Yao Yingsong left, Li Yuan called Yu Yue again and asked him to contact Song Jiajia to implement what he had promised to Qinghe County in the name of Qingtian Group.
At the same time, he also called Song Jiajia to finalize BiXin's operating plans for the next year.
Previously, BiXin relied on game anchors for promotion. This will not be abandoned in the future. However, BiXin will have in-depth cooperation with Jiutian Media, using scripts and beauties as gimmicks to create recognition for BiXin on the entire network.
It mainly includes arranging game anchors to play games with BiXin, signing BiXin beauties to play games together, and having in-depth exposure with big internet celebrities of Jiutian Media.
Of course, the most important point is to conduct ground promotion on university campuses.
This is the main reason why BiXin has become popular. Other apps like Xmoondog and XXvoice have a bunch of AI robots in them, or there are cross-dressing guys with voice changers behind them, and even the IP address can be changed at will...
That thing is purely for scamming people out of their money, and it's no different from those so-called dating sites. Once you enter, a bunch of AIs will chat with you privately.
"Brother, are you there?"
"We're nearby, can we chat?"
"If you still want to chat with me, please activate the chat service. Chatting with me only costs one dollar per sentence. I am waiting for you..."
Real girls are the reason why BiXin has been able to rise.
Any website that lacks content that can be output will not be able to truly retain users.
After chatting with Song Jiajia for almost half an hour, Li Yuan finally finished his speech.
Then I sent her the copy that I had compiled during this period of time.
"Li Yuan, don't worry about one thing. Jiutian Media has signed a contract with Hu Weizong. Once they start production, we won't have enough sales channels and won't even have a place to store them."
So far, Jiutian Media has not been able to cultivate a second fishing anchor with more than one million fans.
"It's okay, Liu Hao will be back soon."
"???, how is that possible! I'm living a good life now!"
