Chapter 1088: When You Are Famous, You Are Prone to Gossip (60008000)

After returning home, Mengmeng helped her grandfather lie down in his room. Mengmeng also jumped upstairs and told her mother how brave she was just now.

"Mom, I rode the roller coaster twice by myself." Mengmeng stretched out two fingers seriously to emphasize this point to her mother.

She looked very proud.

Cheng Xiaolin looked at her daughter's happy look, and she also laughed: "I didn't cry."

"Why did I cry?" Mengmeng asked back.

Cheng Xiaolin was really stumped by the question, and she didn't know how to respond.

"Mengmeng, go take a shower quickly and get ready for bed." Cheng Xiaolin said to her.

But Mengmeng didn't want to sleep. She had just come back from outside, and she was excited: "Mom, I'll sleep later. Where's my brother? I'll play with him, you rest for a while."

She was quite talkative.

In order to sleep a little later, she also tried her best.

But Cheng Xiaolin told her: "Your brother has already gone to bed. Go take a shower quickly. You have to get up early to go to school tomorrow."

Mengmeng wanted to say a few more words, but when she saw her mother's face change, she also became obedient and walked towards her room with her head down: "Okay then."

How could Cheng Xiaolin not know Mengmeng's little thoughts? Seeing her daughter deliberately wasting time, Cheng Xiaolin urged her again: "If you don't want to sleep, continue to play. I won't call you tomorrow morning."

Mengmeng's little face was completely drooped, and this time she was also neat.

When Cao Shujie came up, Cheng Xiaolin said to him: "Shujie, after you left, I just watched TV and seemed to see that the top leader of our city took office."

"Huh?" Cao Shujie was stunned.

Since Xiang Yuheng resigned from all his jobs in Yiling City and took office in Quancheng, Cao Shujie has not paid much attention to the city's affairs.

Besides, he and Xiang Yuheng have a good personal relationship, which is a coincidence. He is not interested in joining in the fun every time someone comes. That is not his character.

Seeing that her husband was not in high spirits, Cheng Xiaolin said directly: "It seems to be called Wang Xueli, yes, that's the name."

Cao Shujie thought about it carefully, but unfortunately, he had no impression of this name at all.

In his previous life, he had been staying in Beijing, and he really didn't know what was going on in his hometown.

Heard a few rumors from others, but they were forgotten later.

"Who cares? Anyway, we won't provoke them." Cao Shujie said.

Cheng Xiaolin nodded: "I know, I was just watching the news, and I happened to tell you when I saw it."

"You have been busy these days and are very tired. Take a rest quickly." Cao Shujie said.

"You don't sleep?" Cheng Xiaolin wondered.

Cao Shujie shook his head: "I took a nap in the office at noon today, and I'm not sleepy now."

They are already an old couple, and Cheng Xiaolin didn't care about him and lay down to rest first.

Cao Shujie was afraid of disturbing the mother and daughter's rest, so he closed the bedroom door again, went outside, and checked the news on his mobile phone.

It's just that there is nothing new in the news at this time, and most of the international news at this time is about Lao Lang who has just taken office.

Netizens' enthusiasm for this matter is beyond Cao Shujie's imagination. Many people are still very optimistic. They think the economy is going to rise.

But Cao Shujie knows that the future situation is not as optimistic as netizens think.

Especially starting from next year, the trade war and the shift to global loose monetary policy will break the balance of the market.

"What's the saying? What's coming will come." Cao Shujie smiled. He is just a small citizen. He is developing well now, but a Xuemeng food factory is a drop in the ocean in the world. It's too inconspicuous.

Instead of worrying about the future, it's better to live well in the present.

Anyway, even if the economy is really bad in the future, he has enough savings to let his family live a good life.

However, this uncertainty in the global economy also brings another related problem.

Risk aversion!

Many capital parties or people with money are full of worries that their assets may depreciate in the next period of time, so they want to buy something that can preserve value.

But what to buy in the current environment?

Some people buy houses to preserve value. Cao Shujie remembers that house prices have indeed soared again in the past two years.

But unfortunately, he has no demand for houses now. No desire makes one strong.

Some people also start to buy gold, thinking that antiques are good in prosperous times and gold is good in troubled times, which is an eternal truth.

But there is another wave of people who are not satisfied with houses or gold at all. They invest in an emerging market.

For example, Bitcoin.

While scrolling, Cao Shujie saw this news.

He read it with great interest.

The content in the news cannot be said to be wrong, and it makes sense to some extent, but the problem is that the rise of Bitcoin is not entirely like this.

For example, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange released news that they are preparing to launch Bitcoin-related derivatives, futures contracts, which means that it can also be shorted.

Hearing this news, many capital parties began to gear up and wanted to show their talents in this emerging market.

"According to relevant reports, after Bitcoin broke through $820 in the afternoon of the winter solstice, it hit a new high in two years and 10 months, and continued to rise. As of now, the price of Bitcoin has exceeded $1,170. This is the first time since it broke through the 2013 high of $1,156 on February 24 this year. It has been consolidating at a high level for a month. Let us wait and see how the price of Bitcoin will go next."

Cao Shujie read the news he had just searched out. Looking at the content in the news, he really didn't notice that Bitcoin had returned to the range above $1,000.

But this is also normal. When I saw it before the New Year, it was already more than $800.

Now three months have passed. This thing is so elastic that it is normal to rise and fall.

After reading it, Cao Shujie closed the news. He was thinking about selling some of it if it rises again.

The money for building the laboratory has almost been spent. There are still many places to invest in the future. Related equipment must be purchased and soldiers must be recruited.

Selling another wave can also make up for the loss.

Coming back to his senses, looking at the time on the phone again, it was almost 11 o'clock in the evening.

I didn't feel that time passed so quickly when I was browsing the news on my phone just now.

I felt sleepy at this moment, so I went into the bedroom to rest.

…

The next morning, Cao Shujie got up and went to the dam to run around the dam with four dogs.

I felt refreshed immediately.

When he took Mengmeng to school this time, Mengmeng repeatedly reminded him on the way: "Dad, don't forget to pick me up at noon."

"Mengmeng, don't worry, Dad will definitely not forget this time." Cao Shujie swore.

Unfortunately, Mengmeng didn't believe it, and finally replied to him: "It depends on your performance."

Cao Shujie: "..."

He really wanted to beat Mengmeng up.

This is a pure naughty child.

When he arrived at the school gate, Cao Shujie still found it interesting to see Mengmeng jumping into the school with her schoolbag.

However, as soon as Cao Shujie arrived at the company, something happened that made him feel more interesting.

In the office, after Cao Shujie came in, before his buttocks could warm up the chair, he heard He Ruijia report to him that the new top leader of the city would come to visit their company next month.

"Visit? Who said that?" Cao Shujie frowned.

Just last night, he heard his wife talking about the new head of the family in their city. Now he is going to visit Xuemeng Food Factory. He is wondering. Xuemeng Food Factory is not the top one in the city in terms of scale or operating income. Shouldn't the new head of the family go to see those top-ranked companies first?

Besides, you just came, shouldn't you first understand the work and visit the old people in the city?

Why come to Xuemeng Food Factory for research first?

Cao Shujie was thinking. He Ruijia saw that the boss didn't say a word and had no expression on his face. She was still wondering in her heart, isn't it a good thing that a leader came to visit the company?

How come the boss's expression doesn't seem to be the case.

He Ruijia couldn't figure out this question. When she was distracted, Cao Shujie asked her again: "Xiao He, is the person you are talking about called Wang Xueli?"

He heard his wife talk about it yesterday, but he hasn't forgotten it.

He Ruijia nodded. It was this name.

"Is it confirmed? What is the specific schedule?" Cao Shujie asked.

He Ruijia handed a piece of paper to Cao Shujie, which clearly recorded Wang Xueli's itinerary for visiting Xuemeng Food Factory.

Wang Xueli came to visit on April 25, the last Tuesday of the week.

What Cao Shujie didn't expect was that there was not only an itinerary for visiting Xuemeng Food Factory, but also an itinerary for visiting the county chemical plant. There was also an itinerary for visiting Caojiazhuang Children's Theme Park.

This wave came to Pingyuan County, a total of three places were visited, and Cao Shujie took up two of them.

This made Cao Shujie a little flattered.

But on the other hand, he felt even more abnormal.

The first stop was to visit the county chemical plant, which he could understand.

After all, it was a subsidiary of Sinochem, a serious central enterprise, and its annual output value was more than 4 billion yuan.

Regardless of its turnover, Wang Xueli would definitely go there based on its background.

But Xuemeng Food Factory?

Cao Shujie remembered something. The current turnover of Xuemeng Food Factory seemed to be the first deal in Pingyuan County!

"Damn it, people who are famous have a lot of gossip!" Cao Shujie complained about himself.

"Xiao He, tell all departments to clean up their areas before the 25th of next month and welcome leaders to visit." Cao Shujie said to his assistant.

He Ruijia nodded and left Cao Shujie's office.

But she always felt that the boss didn't seem to be particularly welcoming to the superiors coming to inspect the work this time, or he didn't have the enthusiasm when Xiang Yuheng came before.

"It's really strange?" He Ruijia muttered.

But she didn't think much about the boss's affairs, and went to complete her own tasks first.

In the office, Cao Shujie was still thinking about this matter, but he knew too little about Wang Xueli, and the information at hand was insufficient, so he couldn't analyze much useful things.

In addition, it was almost time for his daughter to get out of school at noon, so he put Wang Xueli's affairs aside and ignored it for the time being. It was important to pick up his daughter.

Otherwise, the little guy would be angry again. (End of this chapter)
