Chapter 1098 Traditional Crafts
Yu Chuhui groaned and lay down on the small sofa in the living room: "I'm back now. I'm really exhausted today. Hey, Sister Zhu, what do you think of this Wang Yan?"
"Brother Yan is a good person. I think he understands me very well. He always has a smile on his face, which makes people feel very reliable. He also has no airs and talks nicely and has a sense of humor. It has been more than a month since I moved in here. Why has he always been there? Haven’t encountered it yet.”
"I asked Sister Zhu, I didn't ask you. Are you saying that she's better now? You take her enthusiastic help as a matter of course. Do you think she would still give you a smile if she knew about it?"
Having said this, Yu Chuhui looked at Zhu Zhe, "Sister Zhu, I think he must have seen it. I can see even He Minhong's little thoughts. Wang Yan's moral conduct is much higher than mine. I don't know how much better he is. In front of him, a small witch becomes a big witch.
He must be the kind of person who looks amiable to everyone, but is actually a ruthless person who doesn't express his emotions or anger. When you stab someone with a knife, you have to do it with a smile. He didn't care at all about He Minhong's unscrupulous thoughts, and it was as if he hadn't heard them at all. "
"You're still talking about me, aren't you also arranging things behind my back?" He Minhong pouted and stared, unconvinced.
"This is a normal comment from me. What is that? Don't think I don't know. You said that I was a social butterfly behind my back, and you secretly deleted it. Is it true that the more you read, the dirtier and dirtier your thoughts become? "
"Then I didn't do it on purpose, it was just a normal gossip."
"Okay, let me also gossip. He Minhong looks like a white lotus, but in fact he is a green tea bitch. He pretends to be innocent on the surface, but in fact he is very evil behind the scenes."
"you……"
"What's wrong with me? You said I can do it, but I said you can't? You didn't even say a few words to me, and you just said I'm a social butterfly. I still know you a little bit, but you said you're a bitch, and you don't mean what you say. First, it’s okay to treat others differently, right? We are not your parents, and we have no obligation to spoil you.”
"Okay, okay, we all live in the same room, so don't say a few words."
Zhu Zhe calmed down again and said: "Although what Ah Chu said is a bit exaggerated, it is still pretty much the same. I have met so many people over the years, both rich and poor. People like him I really haven't seen him before. Of course, it may be that I have never had such close contact with a big man like him. Okay, it's getting late. Let's take a shower and go to bed. Whoever wins will take a shower first. ”
"Sister Zhu, I'll be last."
"Then I'll be second. You go first, Sister Zhu." Yu Chuhui looked at He Minhong proudly.
The latter rolled her eyes, snorted, and walked back to her room...
At the same time, in 2203 next door, Ye Zhenzhen was also on the phone with her parents.
"Yes, the guy who lives above us should be quite capable and good at martial arts. Someone who is enthusiastic and dares to act righteously in the street is definitely not much different. He is a very interesting person, and he talks very humorously. He is very good at chatting. We are particularly close to each other...and the neighbor from 2201 over there. I got in touch with her today. She seems to have also practiced. He Minhong also said that she is an agent..."
Listening to their precious daughter sharing today's interesting stories, Ye Zhenzhen's parents looked at each other and started the traditional skill of Ode to Joy again. I just like to check up on people when I have nothing to do...
In 2201 opposite the door, Lucy, who had returned earlier, had already gone to bed. She went to bed early and got up early to regain her energy. But even in her sleep, she frowned...
Wang Yan woke up early and naturally as he had for thousands of years, stood up and stood by the window, looking at Shanghai in the morning. It was just dawn at this time, and a layer of mist had not yet dispersed. The view from the twenty-fourth floor is like clouds.
He rolled his neck, stretched his arms, bent back, and moved his body with a thunderous sound. Then he went to get a glass of warm water and drank it down, found some sportswear, and put on a peaked cap to hide his uninspired hairstyle.
2301, this house is exactly the same as the previous one, with 23 jumps and 24 jumps, and a large roof platform. The furnishings in the house are also the same. The difference is that the books on the cabinet have been changed. The paintings and calligraphy hanging on the wall have also changed, but they are still the ones he wrote and painted over the years, but the level is much higher than before, but there is nothing special about it.
But it still feels a little different because of the familiarity that spans thousands of years. He often meets acquaintances, but he knows that they are not real acquaintances. This house is completely familiar, it is the first time in his more than a thousand years of life experience.
That means he has a heart of stone, otherwise he would be stirred up memories that would crush people to death. In a thousand years of life, true and false, who knows how many things are true and how many are false, that will lead to bad Taoism.
After packing up, Wang Yan went out and went downstairs to start a new day of exercise.
There is a People's Park nearby, where he and Andy used to run. This park facilitates the leisure and sports activities of hundreds of thousands of people nearby, which is very good.
But it wasn’t that lively in the early morning, there were only some old men and old ladies. Being able to exercise while working part-time, especially if you don't have the habit of going to bed early but getting up early, is a ruthless person. But that exercise doesn't seem to be very healthy, and it may actually shorten your life span. After all, you must have a good rest and nourish your energy and energy, so that you can exercise your body and live a long and healthy life.
He started long-distance running as usual, but he reduced his speed and ran fifteen kilometers in one hour. Then he found a place with few people and started punching fast and slowly.
"Okay, why are you getting up so early? I see that your WeChat exercise cost more than 20,000 yuan. You can directly reach the top of my circle of friends. You have to run more than ten kilometers, right?"
Lucy, who also got up early to exercise, walked up to Wang Yan and waved her cell phone.
"Fifteen kilometers." Wang Yan replied while punching, "Are you getting used to it?"
"That's right. I have to start exercising even if I'm not used to it. I feel that my physical condition has declined a lot."
"I still have the perseverance to get up early to exercise when I go to work. It's amazing."
"I'm already thirty. If I want to keep my body active and keep my figure, I have to put in some effort." Lucy smiled, "What kind of boxing are you practicing?"
"Baguazhang."
"Do you think traditional martial arts can be fought?"
"Whether it's traditional martial arts, Western boxing, Nanyang boxing, or Jeet Kune Do, Israeli Krav Maga, which is said to be like a flower, they are all skills. It means letting people know how to exert force. How to keep distance, how to counter-joint, how to escape, know where to hit the punch, how much force to use, and how to hit the person.
But in the end, whether you can play or not depends on your physical and mental qualities. The most basic strength and speed must be in place. The so-called martial arts in the world can only be fast, and speed and strength complement each other. We must also be calm and clear-headed in the face of danger. Hands, eyes, body, steps, all must be controlled well. "
"I understand, it means that others may not be able to do it, but you are very good at fighting."
"You will be able to capture information." Wang Yan kept moving and said with a smile, "I'm not very good at fighting. I just want to make sure that I can really fight with someone and not use the king's eight punches. But it's the 21st century. In a society governed by law, so what if you can punch someone but you still have to beg them not to die."
Lucy was amused and laughed. She pinched her waist and said, "You are so funny. You don't have the airs of a big boss at all."
"We are all human beings and we are all equal. Why should we be so pretentious? Let's have breakfast together later?"
"No, I have to control my diet." Lucy waved her hand, "I'm going for a run, bye."
"I prefer saying goodbye."
"Goodbye then."
Smiling, Lucy nodded to Wang Yan and then trotted away.
Wang Yan smiled and continued to punch him. After doing this, we call it a day. I strolled to the breakfast shop at the entrance of the community and had breakfast, then went back to take a shower, changed into casual clothes, and then took the car keys and went out to work.
He has no business working as a shopkeeper, but he still has to understand the company that makes money for him. Of course, he actually knew everything. The living father had information, but it was always better to go and see for himself.
After calling the elevator, the elevator door opened and closed. Basically, the elevator stopped and opened the door before it even started.
"Good morning, Wang Yan."
"Good morning, Brother Yan."
It was Ye Zhenzhen and the three people from 2202. They greeted Wang Yan with different names.
"Good morning to you guys." Wang Yan responded with a smile, and pressed the door button of the elevator thoughtfully, and said, "It seems that my premonition yesterday was right. We will meet more in the future. Don't tell me, we are really destined."
"I said yesterday that I had the same premonition." Ye Zhenzhen smiled, "We have been here for more than a month, but we haven't seen each other once. But after yesterday, we met this morning. What did you say yesterday? Coming?"
"I remember, I remember." He Minhong said, "Brother Yan said that fate is wonderful beyond words."
"He is a good classmate who listens carefully to class."
"Hehe~" He Minhong giggled.
Yu Chuhui asked: "Brother Yan, you are such a big boss, why do you still have to go to the company so early?"
"Bidding is held at 9:15, and the market opens at 9:30. It's more than an hour's drive from our place to my company, so it's a good time to set off. But I don't go there often, I go to take a look occasionally. Today is just an occasional visit. "
Wang Yan explained and looked at Zhu Zhe: "You come with me, we just pass by Shangpu Hotel."
"Then I'm welcome."
"You're welcome."
Yu Chuhui sighed: "He Minhong is leaving with Zhen Zhen, Sister Zhu is leaving with Brother Yan, I am the only one, eh..."
At the height of the twenty-second floor, even though it was time to go to work in the morning, with the operation of the two elevators, everyone arrived at the underground garage without saying a few words.
"Jiji, Wang Yan, I'm leaving. Goodbye."
"Brother Yan, Sister Zhu, goodbye."
Ye Zhenzhen took He Minhong into the car and left simply.
Seeing Zhu Zhe going to the passenger seat of the S8, Wang Yan said, "Driving this today."
"I have learned a lot by following you. I have known about Porsche before, but this is really my first time doing it." Zhu Zhe was still complimentary as usual.
"What a ride, it's just a means of transportation. Get in the car."
After getting in the car, Wang Yan adjusted the music and air conditioning before driving out of the underground garage and joining the morning rush hour traffic.
“Shanghai just has a lot of people and cars, and it’s like this every morning.”
"It's like this in big cities. People are eager to stay."
"I just sharpened my head. As I told you yesterday, I am a vocational high school student. I came from a small place like ours, and I still have a middle-level management job here. I don't know how much energy I have consumed.
As I get older, new people are getting better and better, and each one is more educated than the other. I work hard every day, just afraid of losing this job. If I were to look for a job now, I would definitely not be able to find one as good as the one I have now. I feel exhausted every day, panic and anxiety..."
Wang Yan supported the car window with his left hand and controlled the steering wheel with his right hand, looking relaxed and casual: "It's all the same. People want to run forward, but they are afraid of falling down. It's hard to fall down."
"No way, you are such a big boss and you are also anxious?"
"Of course, I worry about spending money every day."
Looking at Zhu Zhe's speechless look, Wang Yan shook his head and smiled, "You think so, right? Actually, it's not. The financial market is volatile. Although there are fewer stories of getting rich overnight, there are occasionally people who make dozens of times the profit. Similarly, there are also people who have blown up their positions, lost their homes, and returned to zero in half a day, and lined up on the rooftop to jump down.
Someone once said to me, do you know the Empire State Building in New York? I nodded. He said it takes an hour to run from the bottom of the building to the top of the building, and only 8.8 seconds to jump from the top of the building. No one wins all the time. It is normal to lose today and lose more tomorrow. You say, how exciting it is. You think I am very cool now, but I may jump off the building at any time. Sometimes I wonder what posture I should jump down in to be cool. "
"Then you are really cool, and you must be good with this mentality. But let's not talk about such unlucky things." Zhu Zhe turned and asked, "I haven't asked you yet, where is your company?"
The reason why she took a ride was because she knew clearly that Wang Yan must be going the same way. She also felt Wang Yan's pulse yesterday, so she got in the car without saying a word...
"Central Building."
"Wow, a landmark, Lucy is right, a private equity tycoon."
"What tycoon, just pretending to be rich. Those who work in finance must be glamorous and must be tall and noble. "If you look impressive, clients may not necessarily think you have the ability."
"But if you don't look impressive, you definitely don't have the ability, right?"
"Look, you can answer the questions quickly, Comrade Zhu Zhe, you have a future." Wang Yan smiled and nodded, "You can be the vice president."
"How dare I think of being the vice president? If I can keep my job and not be kicked out by others, then everything will be fine."
"Your name is well-chosen, with two lucky numbers, so it must be a blessing."
"It really didn't shine on me. I have suffered a lot these years. It's all bitter tears when I talk about it."
"Then it has made you what you are now."
Zhu Zhe was silent because she didn't know whether it was good or bad now...
"Don't worry about it. What's good or bad? You have to accept it." Wang Yan smiled, "It's the same for me. Both my parents died and I'm alone. This is bad, right? But my parents bought a house here in the early years. It was demolished shortly after they died. At that time, I had just become an adult. That's how I got my first pot of gold, and now I have it. This is good, right? "
"Uh..." Zhu Zhe didn't know what to say.
"It's okay, I've gotten used to it over the years."
Zhu Zhe let out a long sigh: "I do have both parents, but my parents are very patriarchal. I think they just use me as a money-making machine. My family is poor, and I'm the eldest in the family. I went out to work early and worked hard to support my younger brother and sister to go to college. As a result, they took my efforts for granted. After graduating from college, they didn't look for a job in a down-to-earth manner. They were proud of their college diplomas and couldn't get rid of their face.
But what time is it now? College diplomas are useless, not to mention that they didn't go to good universities. Recently, when I called me, I called you big sister, and it was so friendly. I knew it was asking me for money again. My parents always said that my younger brother would support me in the future, haha..."
"Traditional thinking can't be changed. If you are asked to break off the relationship, you probably won't be willing to do so. This is the power of family affection. As for your younger brothers and sisters, they can only deal with it. They are also used to your efforts. From what you said, you don't want to give any more money now, and you're making a fuss."
"Go ahead and make a fuss. As the eldest sister and daughter of these two ungrateful people, I have done my best to support them to go to college. I'm over 30 years old, and I have to make plans for myself."
Zhu Zhe smiled and said, "In fact, I have already paid the down payment for a house. It's not big, only 60 square meters. I just paid off the debt for buying a house this year. Now I can finally save some money every month, which makes me a lot more relaxed. I can finally breathe a sigh of relief. With this house, I feel that all these years have not been in vain. I feel that I am a part of this big city because I have taken root."
"Look, isn't this great?"
"That's why I don't dare to lose my job. I'm walking on thin ice every day."
The two of them are close to each other now. It's obvious that they have become closer and have a very pleasant chat.
"We're here. Thanks for the ride. I'm sure there will be a lot of rumors about me today."
"Everyone likes to gossip. It's human nature. How about I pick you up in the evening? I'll add fuel to your fire and entertain you."
"Please forgive me." Zhu Zhe unbuckled his seat belt, opened the car door and was about to get out, but sat back and said, "By the way, do you like beef sauce? I plan to make some this week. If you want to eat it, I'll make an extra portion."
"Can you cook?"
"For so many years, I've been saving money on my mouth. My cooking skills are okay, at the level of home cooking."
Wang Yan smiled and nodded: "I guess it's not convenient for you to cook at home..."
"In the stairwell, just open the window for ventilation."
"Come to my house. If you can cook, cook more. Let's eat together. I don't cook for many years, but I have all the equipment. You can use it. Otherwise, it's not worth the price of a kitchen that big."
"Okay, let's talk about the details on WeChat. Let's go. Goodbye."
Zhu Zhe didn't say anything more. Under the stunned gaze of the security guard at the door, he got out of the car.
Wang Yan stepped on the accelerator and drove into the traffic again, heading across the river.
Shanghai Tower is a landmark building in Shanghai, the one that twisted up. The building is 632 meters high and is now the tallest in China and the third tallest in the world.
His company rented a floor here. There are more than 100 people under his command, and the office is quite spacious, with tea rooms, entertainment rooms, reception rooms, etc., all fully functional.
As soon as he arrived at the company, the beautiful girl who received him at the door greeted him coquettishly: "Hello, Mr. Wang."
"Hello to you too."
Wang Yan walked all the way to his spacious office and checked various data in the company.
In general, it's still very good. His company manages more than 6 billion in assets, and its profits are quite stable, which is at the upper level of private equity funds. The sources of money are also very diverse, including demolition households, big bosses, etc. As for the specific data, I will not go into details.
Just as he was looking at the data, a man in his thirties knocked on the door and walked in.
"Mr. Wang, a customer took the initiative to find the door. I talked to them. They are interested in investing 20 million. I heard that you came to the company today, so I wanted to talk to you again."
The minimum capital for entry here is 10 million, but 20 million is not a small number compared to more than 6 billion. If Wang Yan is not here, it will be fine. Since he is here, he still needs to meet him.
"You still have to respect money, let's go." Wang Yan didn't think much about it, and got up and followed his men to the reception room.
In the reception room, there were two young men sitting. One tall and one short, one fat and one thin.
"Hello, I am Wang Yan."
"Ye Shang."
"Ye Fang."
I would like to thank the good brothers who voted for the monthly ticket, recommended ticket, and read books silently for their strong support!
