Chapter 303 Listen to Hexagram 8
"Aunt, uncle dotes on you too much."
Lin Shu just smiled when he heard that, and drove seriously while looking straight ahead.
To prove his words were true, Gu Youhui continued, "You see, the weather is getting colder. I'm afraid you'll freeze if you ride your bike, so I used my connections to buy you a car. This car is windproof and rainproof, so it's so comfortable."
Lin Shu recalled how surprised he was when he received this gift. "Don't be envious. If you work hard to make money, you can buy one in two years. The New Year is coming soon. Have you ever thought about helping to promote the gift boxes from your uncle's food factory this year?"
"Can I buy a car in two years? Auntie, don't make big promises to me. With a small business like mine, I may not have enough money to buy a car in ten years."
Gu Youhui's words were not an exaggeration. In this era, an imported car costs hundreds of thousands of yuan. In an era when even people with an annual income of 10,000 yuan are scarce, cars are really not affordable for ordinary people.
The reason why Gu Jiu dared to buy a car was because the US dollars he earned from the United States were already recorded in his personal account, and he also agreed to invest in a battery factory.
Now that you know this, you won’t be afraid to buy a high-profile car.
"Don't be so discouraged. Last time we came back and bought a stock, planning to hold it for a long time. Now, only two or three months have passed, and it has already increased by 50%."
In other words, if you originally bought this stock for 100,000, it has now become 150,000.
I heard from Dabao that this stock has potential and can increase ten to twenty times in the next two years.
Gu Youhui was excited when he heard this. "You can check the stock market situation on the other side of the sea when you come back? Then can people here also remotely control which stocks to buy?"
Lin Shu parked the car at the intersection and waited for other cars on the opposite road to pass. "No, wait until next time. I'll talk about it next time when I have a chance to go abroad. Last time you used your money to buy a courtyard house in the capital. Do you have enough money now?"
"That's enough. I've made some money in the past two months, and the business is pretty good."
"That's good."
Lin Shu thought about the money that Gu Youhui had invested in her clothing factory. She couldn't expect any dividends this year, but would have to wait until the end of next year to get the dividends. Based on the proportion of the money Gu Youhui invested, he would probably get a considerable dividend next year.
"Aunt, last time I went to a dance hall with my classmates, I met someone in the dance hall." Gu Youhui paused deliberately, wanting Lin Shu to guess who he met?
"Who? No one I know likes to go to places like dance halls. Don't tell me you ran into your uncle in the dance hall. Was he dancing with a girl?"
Lin Shu's idea was very bold, because only Gu Youhui, whom she knew, would ask such a question.
But she couldn't think of anyone she knew who liked to go to the dance hall.
If I remember correctly, Gu Jiu and his friends went to the dance hall last time.
The owner of that dance hall seemed to be Deng Jiaming again.
"Pfft~cough~"
Gu Youhui almost choked to death on his own saliva. It was too scary to see his uncle dancing with the little girl in his arms.
"Aunt, you can't say that. If my uncle hears it, I'll be in trouble."
"Did you really see your uncle dancing with a little girl?" Lin Shu deliberately misunderstood what he meant.
"Ahem, little aunt, my uncle is a man who loves his family. How could he possibly mess with a little girl? Please don't talk nonsense. It's not true."
"Okay, I was wrong. I won't keep you in suspense." Gu Youhui surrendered: "What I want to say is that I ran into Zhang Yong in the dance hall that day."
"You know Zhang Yong, the man of your relative. He is wearing all kinds of gold and silver and looks like a nouveau riche. He must have made a lot of money from his business recently, otherwise he wouldn't dare to be so high-profile."
Lin Shu was a little surprised when he heard what he said, "Zhang Yong wears gold and silver because he is afraid that others don't know that he is rich?"
Gu Youhui didn't like to talk about people behind their backs, but Zhang Yong was the man of Lin Shu's cousin, so he paid some attention to him. "That's right. After all, poor people who suddenly become rich are prone to get carried away and go astray."
"Tsk, his wallet isn't even full yet, but he's already gotten carried away, and started to spend money and enjoy himself. I don't think they'll last long. If my cousin knew he was fooling around, she'd definitely make a scene, and we'd all be left in turmoil."
Lin Shu didn't want Zhang Yong to fool around outside from the bottom of his heart, so as to avoid getting them into trouble.
Gu Youhui: "If a relative from another family comes to visit, it would be righteous to help her. It is also understandable if you are unwilling to help her. If she insists on bothering you, it would be a bit too much."
Lin Shu shook his head: "One of the reasons why the best is the best is that it is unreasonable. If he tries to reason with you, he is not the best."
"That's true." Gu Youhui changed the subject and asked, "It's the end of the year, and my uncle is going to Guangdong Province to check the accounts. Will you go with him this time?"
"I want to go, but I don't have time. My restaurant, hotel, fruit shop, clothing store, clothing factory, small supermarket and warehouse are all waiting for me to check the accounts. There are many things waiting for me to deal with. And the accounts of your uncle's trading company also need to be settled."
Although Lin Dongfa is now in charge of the trading company, she still needs to participate in clearing the accounts.
As the business grows bigger, there are more and more things to do. This is not a long-term solution. After the Chinese New Year, I have to go to major universities to recruit some managers, and I also have to register a company for my own business so that I can manage it better.
Along the way, the two chatted about whatever came to their mind. When they arrived at their destination and parked the car, Gu Youhui got out of the car and looked at the newly built factory. He said with emotion: "Aunt, this place is so big. If you hadn't brought me here, I would never have thought that these factories were built by you. How many workshops are there?"
"If the factory is fully built, there will be eight workshops and two dormitories for employees. The first floor of the dormitories will be a canteen. The building at the front of the factory is the factory office building. I have built the building closest to the road with 12 floors. When I have time, I plan to renovate it into a hotel."
In the future, her hotel will be turned into a chain hotel, with a unified name, decoration style, etc., so that customers will remember the hotel as soon as they see the sign.
There were no advertisements in this era, but she could set up a chain of hotels so that the hotel signs would be seen by more passers-by. Over time, the name of her hotel would be deeply rooted in people's hearts and people would remember it.
The factory has been built, but the workshop is very deserted. Next year, when sewing machines and other tools are moved in and employees are hired, the factory will gradually become more popular.
Although the initial cooperation with the No. 1 Garment Factory was pleasant, Lin Shu wanted his own brand to have its own production workshop.
With our own production workshop, we don't have to be restricted by others at any time, and we don't have to worry about the products not being delivered on time.
Gu Youhui looked around. The road was newly built here, several miles away from the city. It could be said that the factory was built at the junction of urban and rural areas.
If Lin Shu had not built the factory at this time, this place would have been unknowingly desolate. Now that the factory has been built, Lin Shu wants to open a hotel. Gu Youhui thinks that no one in the city would come here to book a room unless they have water in their brains.
The factory site chosen by Lin Shu is still wasteland at this stage, but in a few years, this area will slowly be developed.
After 2000, several large shopping malls were built here, and it became a veritable commercial street.
