Volume 6: The Great Change Chapter 0865: Benefits in Exchange
June 3rd.
The second lottery for 92 stock subscription certificates was crazy, really crazy. The winning rate reached 50%. When the results came out the next day, the price of the subscription certificate suddenly jumped up by 2,000 yuan. After two hours, the price rose by another 1,500 yuan.
Of course, this is the price of the subscription certificate for those who have won the lottery but have not yet bought the shares. The bare certificate is slightly cheaper, but only a little bit. According to the current situation, the winning rate is almost 100%. As long as you have the subscription certificate, you can definitely buy new shares and make at least dozens of times more money.
June 5th.
Zhao Tianyang and another person who had already sold all the stocks and subscription certificates came to report the results. Nan Yi took a look at the final number and found that it was actually a little higher than he expected. After asking, he found out that nearly 20,000 shares of Dian Zhenkong were sold at a high price of around 2,200 yuan, and even the first 30,000 shares were sold at around 1,200 yuan. This was quite different from Nan Yi's expectation of a clearance price of around 1,000 yuan.
On May 21, the lowest price of Dianzhenkong's stock was 1,942.5 yuan and the highest was 2,644 yuan. The price difference reached more than 700 yuan in one day.
Nan Yi asked Zhao Gu and the others what supported the share price of Dian Zhenkong 2644. The share price of Yuyuan Shopping Mall could be said to be supported by the value of the land, but Dian Zhenkong had not heard of any major improvement in its business recently.
Zhao Gu and his partner didn't give a clear answer, only the enthusiasm of stockholders supported them, which was to the point. But this was a bit scary, as stocks and companies seemed to have nothing to do with each other. Companies were just stock providers, and stock prices were manipulated by stockholders.
June 6th.
Liuzi rushed over from the capital to reconcile and divide the accounts. After consideration, he gave Nan Yi 20 million and took over the new shares in the account.
Just like that, Nan Yi's final profit came out, with a little more here and there. The number changed from his expected 62 million + 20 million to 96 million. There was still a surplus of more than 1 million, which Nan Yi took out and divided among Zhao Gu and the other two.
As revenue increases, the executor's dividends will naturally increase as well.
In the evening, when Zhao Tianyang hosted a celebration banquet, Liuzi talked to Zhao Tianyang intentionally or unintentionally. He probably wanted to hand over the new shares in the account to Zhao Tianyang, and even had further ideas. Nan Yi just watched and didn't say anything.
With the funds Liuzi currently holds, as long as the T+0 policy exists and as long as he is not too greedy, the stock market can become his ATM.
The stock market in the future will be neither reasonable nor very rational. As long as there is sufficient capital, a stock can be raised or smashed at will. There is no limit on the price fluctuation. It is entirely possible to raise the price of a stock dozens or even hundreds of times in a day.
After staying in Shanghai for another two days, Nan Yi waited for Zhao Jinshui to come and transfer the funds to Coconut City.
With the income from the land in Xiaoya Bay and the profits from stocks, Nan Yi's personal funds increased by an equivalent of 65 million US dollars, and he became a little more financially comfortable.
After the matter in Shanghai was settled, Nan Yi rushed to Beijing and went straight to the Nan family as soon as he got off the plane.
"Sister-in-law, I promised you, mom, and big brother that each of you would have a share of 1 million. Our total initial investment was 41.7 million. However, this money was an investment I got from someone else, and I promised to give them 60% of the profits. This means that our initial investment was actually 66.72 million.
Adding other miscellaneous expenses, it cost more than 2 million. Let’s assume it’s 2 million, then the total cost is 68.72 million…”
Nan Yi pressed a few times on the calculator, "1 million is 1.45% of the share. The land has been sold, and the money collected is 320 million. Subtract 68.72 million, and we are left with 251.28 million. The 1.4% share can be divided into 3.64356 million. I will pay a little more, and each of you will get 3.65 million."
Nan Yi turned on the calculator and said, "Sister-in-law, mother, brother, please check if there is any problem."
"What are you looking at, Nan Yi? This money is given to us for free. It's whatever you say." Yi Jinru said with a smile.
"Mom, your shares all carry certain risks. If there is a loss, you will have to pay for it. Now that we have made a profit, the accounts must be settled clearly. If you have no objection, this is the dividend figure."
Nan Yi said, looking at the three people.
Yi Jinru and the other two shook their heads, indicating that they had no objection.
"Okay, since there are no objections, then it's 3.65 million per person. Let's talk about how to give the money. Although land speculation is legal, the current way of speculation will sooner or later cause trouble. It will be hard to explain the money earned from land speculation." Nan Yi said, looking at Yi Jinru, "Mom, do you still remember the Genzhengmiaohong Trading Company that I registered in your name?"
"I remember. Of course I remember. The tax office even gave me a certificate of merit." Yi Jinru said with a smile.
"Trade in Russia is quite good now. My idea is this: I will take out another 3.65 million yuan to make up 14.6 million yuan, and register another foreign trade company in my mother's name. My eldest brother and his wife and I will each own 24% of the shares."
Nan Yi looked at Yi Jinru and continued, "Mom, you get 28%, and the extra 4% belongs to Dad. From now on, all dividends will be collected by Mom. It's up to you to decide whether to give it to Dad or how to give it. We, as your children, have no right to interfere."
Nan Yi's words made Yi Jinru smile even more.
"It sounds good to talk about the money I made from foreign trade. Besides, I've been doing this business for a long time. The market will be good in the next few years. It's profitable and stable. In a few years, the 14.6 million can make a few more."
"Nan Yi, you said this business is good, so let's do it. I won't go to the store tomorrow, I'll go to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to register the company. Oh, by the way, what do you want to name the company?"
"Mom, just make the decision. You are the chairman and the three of us are your soldiers. We will obey your orders."
"Haha, alright, I'll get up if I want."
Yi Jinru said this, stood up, and walked towards Nan Ruochan's room in a hurry.
After a while, he came back with a dictionary.
Nan Yi frowned slightly, then relaxed his brows. He was a little disgusted with Yi Jinru's casual entry into Nan Ruochan's room. A child with independent thoughts should have his own private space.
Yi Jinru put on her reading glasses, held the dictionary far away, dipped her finger on her lips, stuck to the footer, and started flipping through the pages.
Yi Jinru was busy, and the other three were left alone. Nan Tieli was doing business in his hardware store and left after a while. The remaining two, Nan Yi and Wenren Lanyue, started chatting.
"Sister-in-law, how is the business in the factory?"
"The factory is now very profitable. Cold medicine and stomach-strengthening and digestion-promoting tablets are selling well. The sales of intestinal worm clearing are also not bad. Many hospitals have sold them. The workers in the factory are now regretting it and are asking why they were reluctant to pay the fundraising money in the first place."
"Opportunities missed are missed, there will be opportunities in the future."
"Director Leng said that the factory is preparing to go public. Before the listing, employees have one more chance to get employee shares."
"Yeah." Nan Yi nodded, "Sister-in-law, are you happy working in the factory?"
"It's fine. Everyone knows I'm your sister-in-law, so they all take good care of me. It's just that I travel too much on business. I can't stay in Beijing for a few days a month. I travel all over the country." Wenren Lanyue lifted her fashionable bat hair, her face showing pain. "It's not as easy to run medicine now. I have to eat and drink everywhere. Some people are so talkative that they say anything. It's very inconvenient for me as a woman. I often have to bring a male salesperson with me."
Nan Yi could imagine the scene from what Wenren Lanyue said. Some men were indeed quite unrestrained at the dinner table, especially when facing a woman who wanted something from him. A little flirtatious talk was still considered okay, and taking advantage of her a little was not excessive. They would hug her right away, and many even put their hands where they shouldn't.
What's worse is that some people even resort to bullying and force things on others without any magnanimity at all.
"Sister-in-law, do you have any new ideas?"
Hearing the tone of Ren Lanyue's voice, she seemed to have begun to consider backing out.
"I have some ideas." Wenren Lanyue nodded. "I have been to many hospitals and pharmacies in recent years. I have met many pharmaceutical representatives and some private pharmacy owners. I know the prices of medicines very well. I have seen how much medicines those pharmacies can sell in a year. I found that opening a pharmacy is quite profitable."
“You want to open a drugstore?”
"I've been thinking about it for several months and I've figured out everything I need to think about." Wenren Lanyue said firmly, "I want to open a pharmacy."
"Oh, are you only opening one store, or are you planning to open a chain?"
Chain is not a rare word in Nanjia. Yi Jinru of Lafayette is a big boss in the chain restaurant industry.
"I want to open two or three stores first to see how things go, and then expand if everything goes well. However, the current policy does not allow private pharmacies to be opened. If you want to open one, you can only apply for a license in the name of selling health products, and medicines can only be sold secretly. Nan Yi, can you help me make a decision? Should I find a collective to affiliate with, or directly find a state-owned unit to set up a joint-stock system?"
As she spoke, Wenren Lanyue looked at Nan Yi with hope in her eyes.
"Sister-in-law, why did you open a pharmacy? Do you just want to make money, or do you have other ideas?"
"Nan Yi, have you heard of Wenren Hall?"
Nan Yi thought about it and felt unfamiliar with the three words "Wenren Hall", so he shook his head.
"It's not surprising that you don't know, Wenren Hall has been closed for more than 60 years." Wenren Lanyue said with a bitter smile: "During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, there was a wandering doctor in the capital. His name was Wenren Zhenlan, and he was my family's ancestor. Everyone called him Wenren Taoist.
My ancestors mainly made their own summer-heat-relief medicines, such as Bishusan and Wujidan. After years of hard work, they saved up some money. In the 55th year of Emperor Qianlong's reign, they bought a shop at the north entrance of Changxiang Toutiao, Xianyukou Hutong, Qianmen Street, and hung up the name of Wenren Tang, ending their life as a traveling doctor.
Wenren Tang has been in business for 200 years thanks to its famous summer-relief powder. In the 1930s, there was a jingle circulating in the old capital: "Don't panic on hot days. Buy some summer-relief medicine from Wenren Tang and apply it to your nostrils to open up your heart, relieve heat and keep you healthy."
At that time, the Japanese summer heat-removing medicines Rendan and Baodan were widely advertised and dumped in China. Rendan advertisements were posted on the streets of almost every town. In order to boycott Japanese products, my great-grandfather developed four new dosage forms of summer heat-removing powder in purple, green, yellow and white based on the original summer heat-removing powder. Different colors of summer heat-removing powder with better quality can be used for different symptoms and different patients.
This summer-relief powder is packed in a small bagua-shaped box. Open the lid, dip a little on your finger and rub it into your nostrils, take a deep breath, and you will immediately feel a cool breath entering your nose, penetrating your lungs, making your whole body feel comfortable and refreshed.
At the same time, my great-grandfather also improved the printing factory to match the production, specializing in printing packaging paper, instructions for use and promotional advertisements, and opened a production workshop for casting tin Bagua medicine boxes, forming a one-stop production scale of procurement, manufacturing, packaging and sales, effectively resisting Japanese goods and occupying the market.
It was not only sold domestically, but also opened up sales channels in Thailand, Indonesia, and Myanmar. At that time, all the department stores, small grocery stores, and tea shops throughout the capital sold Wenren Tang's summer powder. "
Wenren Lanyue smiled bitterly with a hint of regret, "After the Japanese invaders entered the city, my great grandfather was retaliated by the Japanese merchants who sold medicine. All the people in his family were killed and his shop was burned down. Fortunately, my grandfather happened to be out with the shopkeeper to purchase medicinal materials at that time, so he escaped. Nanyi, I opened a pharmacy not only to make money, but also to restore the Wenren Family and Wenren Hall brand."
"I didn't expect that there is such a thing in my sister-in-law's family. Since you want to set up a new brand, it is not appropriate to cooperate with state-owned enterprises. You still have to go the way of collective affiliation. Sister-in-law, I will help you find a collective to affiliate with. You just need to pay a little affiliation fee every year. You can rest assured about the property rights. There will be no disputes."
Nan Yi felt a little regretful, because Wenren Lanyue was a talent he thought highly of. He had originally planned to bring her to Buer Pharmaceutical after a while, but he didn't expect that she had bigger ambitions and went solo.
Suddenly, Yi Jinru, who was looking through the dictionary, shouted, "I've made up my mind, let's use this name."
Nan Yi turned his head and looked over, "Mom, what's your name?"
Yi Jinru looked up at Nan Yi and said with great pride, "Jinru Trading Company, is this a good name?"
"Okay, absolutely, Mom, let's register the company with this name." Nan Yi gave a thumbs up, and couldn't help but complain in his heart: "Looking up feelings in the dictionary is just acting, the old lady is quite narcissistic."
After Nan Yi finished praising, Wenren Lanyue also echoed, "Mom, let's use this name."
Once the name is decided, the rest of the things are relatively simple. Yi Jinru will be responsible for the registration, and Nan Yi will take care of the import and export rights.
After having dinner at the Nan family, Nan Yi returned to the old villa. At around eight o'clock, just after cleaning the house, he received a call from Wu Renpin.
Wu Renpin: "Nan Yi, I need your help."
"Old Wu, there's no need for us to beg or ask for anything. Just say it directly."
Wu Renpin: "Xiaowei will be a senior soon. He doesn't have many classes at school. He will have an internship and a thesis defense. The school wants to arrange an internship for him or he can find one on his own. Xiaowei is an immature kid. He doesn't want to be assigned an internship after graduation. He wants to go south to try his luck."
"Does sister-in-law agree?"
Wu Renpin: "Meifeng couldn't get over him."
"And you?"
Wu Renpin: "I don't want Xiaowei to follow my old path. At first, I wanted him to work in the enterprise to gain experience. Since he has his own ideas, I'll let him do it."
"Have you called Liu Zhen?"
Wu Renpin: "I called her first. She told me you were in Beijing. I also chatted with Wu Wei for a while. Nan Yi, your son is really well trained. When you are free, bring him to my place to play for a few days."
"Hmm." Nan Yi responded, thinking for a moment, and said, "Tell Xiaowei to come to my place at four o'clock tomorrow afternoon, and I will take him to dinner."
"good."
After hanging up the phone, Nan Yi laughed, "Old Wu, you want me to guess about your own son's affairs. What if I can't guess? Haha, come south and join me, Nan Yi."
Fengtian, Wu Renpin’s study.
As soon as Wu Renpin hung up the phone, Wu Meifeng, who was listening nearby, asked anxiously, "What did Nan Yi say?"
"Let Xiaowei go to his place for dinner tomorrow."
"That's the question of whether you have agreed or not. Old Wu, why don't you make it clearer? Nan Yi is not someone else. Why are you speaking in such an official tone?" Wu Meifeng scolded.
Wu Renpin did not respond to Wu Meifeng's criticism, but said calmly: "I agree. Okay, you go out first. I have some documents to look at."
"Okay, okay, look, my busy man."
Wu Meifeng was happy that her son's affairs had been settled. She didn't want her son to be like his father, who was too tired, so it would be better for him to be with Nan Yi.
Wu Meifeng had great confidence in Nan Yi. At the beginning, he made their family's life better with just a simple suggestion. Later, he bought those calligraphy and paintings at a low price. They are valuable now and will be even more valuable in a few years. Her son can learn real skills from him.
…
The next day.
Nan Yi and Qiu Hanmin met in the park, exercised together, and then went to have breakfast together.
After returning to the old villa to wash up, Nan Yi washed clothes in the yard.
The clothes had been kept for too long. Although there were mothballs in the clothes to prevent insects from getting in, they were inevitably covered in dust. Nan Yi first emptied Nan Wuwei's large wardrobe and separated the clothes that could still be worn from those that were too small. He searched the pockets of the too small clothes to make sure nothing was left out, and then stuffed them all into the washing machine without distinguishing between inner and outer clothes.
"Doing laundry?"
A puff of smoke floated over, followed by Ye Qi's tone.
Nan Yi poured some detergent into the washing machine, pressed the switch, and turned around when he heard the sound of water running. "You came so early?"
"I'm late and I'm afraid you'll be out."
"Go sit in the living room until I'm done."
"It's okay, you do your thing, I'll watch you do it." Ye said with a smile: "Times have changed. Although our comrade Nan has been in a high position for many years, he still remains simple and maintains his love for washing."
"Be careful, don't change the words randomly."
Nan Yi retorted and continued to sort out his and Liu Zhen's clothes, looking at each one carefully and picking them out, especially the clothes they wore during the time when they went to the countryside in Wenchangwei. The two of them had kept them in the old villa, except for the dress that Liu Zhen wore from that time. She would take it with her wherever she went and occasionally take it out to try it on.
"There are holes in the six-five green, why are you still putting it there?"
“It’s commemorative.”
Nan Yi stroked the green military uniform in his hand. He was wearing the uniform on the day he traveled through time, with a three-edged scraper on his waist, on his way to check the racks. Later, this uniform followed him to Wenchangwei, and he often wore it when working. During the start-up period, it was always by his side.
"Isn't it too early for you to feel nostalgic now?" Ye Qi said with feeling. In fact, he himself is also a nostalgic person, and some memories from the past often come to his mind.
"You better stay aside and wait for me to slowly reminisce."
"Okay, I'm not here to get in the way, you can just be nostalgic." Ye Qi said, throwing the cigarette butt on the ground and walking straight to the living room.
"Fuck, grandson."
Cursing inwardly, Nan Yi picked up Ye Wei's cigarette butt and threw it into the trash can.
Half an hour later, Nan Yi sorted out all the clothes, sorted them and lined them up, waiting to be put into the washing machine.
Freeing his hands, Nan Yi walked into the living room, found the stove and other utensils, set up the teapot stand on the coffee table, lit the charcoal fire, and put the teapot on. When Nan Yi put the two teacups on the coffee table, Ye Qi noticed them and was now holding one in his hand, turning it left and right to study it.
"Okay, stop pretending. You don't know anything about antiques, so you can't see anything special even if you look at it."
"Tell me, what's the story behind these two?" Ye Qi was not annoyed by Nan Yi's complaints. He really didn't understand antiques, he just thought that this pair of cups was quite special.
"This is the cup that the newlyweds used to drink the wedding wine on the night of the marriage ceremony when a family surnamed Gao in Gumo State was looking for a son-in-law during the Tang Dynasty."
"Where is Gumo Country?"
"The Western Regions."
"No, they look like they were made in the Central Plains."
Nan Yi poured the tea into two cups and said, "Not surprising, this pair of cups was given to the newlyweds by a passing monk from the Pure Land Temple."
"Who is it? Is he famous?"
"Xuanzang."
"Tang Monk..." Ye Yu suddenly realized something was wrong, "Fuck, you are talking about Gao Laozhuang?"
"Yes, mine is Miss Gao's, named Hate to Marry; yours is Zhu Ganglie's, you can call it Bajie Cup or Tianpeng Cup. There is no sugar in the tea, do you want some?"
"Forget it, I don't like sweet drinks." Ye Qi waved his hand and said, "Where did these two cups come from?"
"The Song Dynasty kiln-changed glaze partridge-spotted Jianzhan is called this, but it's not real. The tile factory fired it for fun when they were testing the craft. You can tell by looking at the bottom of the cup."
Ye Qi raised the cup high, looked at the bottom of the cup, and saw the words "Nan Zang". "I thought so, I never heard that you like antiques."
"Let's not talk about the cup, let's talk about you. Are you still planning to go back?"
"No, I'm glad you reminded me that after the Soviet revisionists became Russia, many of our people's businesses in the Far East were taken away, and several died."
"Ask yourself, did those who died deserve to die?" Nan Yi took a sip of tea and asked calmly.
"The crime does not deserve death ."
"You're just being stubborn. If you're targeted by the Russians and dare to rob them directly, you're probably covered in shit. No matter how chaotic the Far East is, there will always be rules. If you don't follow the rules, don't expect others to follow them. Are you throwing away your business or selling it?"
"I sold some of the goods at wholesale prices. The rest is worthless." Ye Qi patted his thigh. "It's been a while since I came back. I don't know what to do. I eat lobsters and geoducks every day. I'm sick of them. Look at my belly. It's swollen."
"Hehe, have you ever dreamed of living a hard life for a few days? It's easy. Just go out, stand on the curb, kick anyone you don't like, and then go back to the trading floor to work for a few days." Nan Yi teased.
"Okay, I'm not stupid. You know what, I can't eat good things every day. I really want something light." Ye said, tilting his head and looking towards the kitchen. "What do you have here? I'll eat it here at noon. Just order whatever you want."
"I haven't cooked for almost half a year. I'm going to borrow some noodles and two eggs from next door to make some dough dumplings."
"Okay, just eat this and get rid of the fat."
"Okay, you continue to lie down, and I'll go back to washing clothes." Nan Yi drank the tea in the cup and returned to the yard. He washed and dried clothes that needed to be washed and dried. Soon, half of the yard was covered with clothes.
