Chapter 171 0170 The Landlord's Foolish Son Has Become a Successful Person (Subscription Request)

"What? Half a billion?"

"Didn't you just go to Chen Jue's Cube Technology Company to take up a temporary position?"

When Zheng Long heard the amount his son reported, his hand holding the chopsticks almost shook like a stroke and he fell off the table.

Although he had long been aware of the ridiculous and embarrassing things his "bastard son" had done outside.

But on weekdays, because his wife doted on him and took care of him, Zheng Long didn't pay much attention to Zheng Bocheng and let him go out and hang out.

Because in the eyes of Zheng Long, an older generation of Wenzhou businessmen, as long as his son does not go out and pick up bad habits like HDD, he goes to his own factory to punch in on time every day, and takes care of his grandson when he gets home from work, which is considered very well-behaved among his peers.

On the other hand, there are many cases around us of parents who want their children to be successful but end up squandering all their family fortunes by helping their children start their own businesses.

So Zheng Long learned from the lessons of some of his old friends, and took control of the financial power of the family business while he was still in his prime, thus strictly controlling the economic source of his son's family.

In addition to the salary, the only thing they get is a few million in pocket money every year.

I heard before that Zheng Bocheng invested 200 million yuan to buy shares in Chen Jue’s restaurant. Zheng Long also criticized his son several times with disdain, saying that the catering industry in the country is so depressed now.

There are people running restaurants everywhere, but the probability of being eliminated and closing down is more than 90%.

There are so many other places to invest that 200 million yuan, but why invest it in this sunset industry?

Isn't this just throwing money down the drain?
Moreover, when Zheng Long learned that Zheng Bocheng still received dividend shares and could not even interfere in the operation and management of Chenji, he became even more dissatisfied!

Zheng Long, who started from scratch and worked hard for half his life, knew how treacherous people are in the business world.

If you don't interfere in the management and watch others use the funds at will, isn't that the same as going into a casino and handing the chips to others to gamble at the table?

If you win the bet, you may make some money, but if you lose, you will lose everything.

More than a decade ago, it was popular in Vancouver to get relatives and friends to buy shares in factories. At that time, family workshops had good economic benefits and private lending was very common.

Later, when the financial crisis hit, a number of old Vancouver companies were ruined by these dividend stocks as their capital chains were broken.

What era is this and you still dare to play like this? This is not just being stubborn, this is just stupid!
It would be better to invest the money in the A-share market and buy a few leading stocks like the Big Four Banks. At least they won't fall to the ST level and be delisted, and you can still get stable dividends every year.

So just for the 200 million yuan in pocket money, Zheng Long criticized Zheng Bocheng at the dinner table, saying that he was too naive and would rather believe his friends than listen to his parents' advice.

Of course, Zheng Long didn’t feel bad about the 200 million.

Instead, he intended to use this lesson to teach his son a lesson, to let him know the intrigues in the business world, and to give up the idea of ​​starting his own business as soon as possible, and to come back to take over his business after he has settled down.

Who would have thought that not long after the 200 million pocket money was invested, Chen Ji became inexplicably popular!
And it was so popular that as soon as the chain stores opened across Vancouver, there were queues almost every day.

It even boosted Vancouver's cultural and tourism industry and was repeatedly commended by city leaders.

More importantly, Chen Ji pays Zheng Bocheng more than 5 million in dividends every month.

I made back my capital in the first month of investment!

Such exaggerated returns made Zheng Long shut up about investing.

Because although Zhongbo Machinery, which he founded, is a small leading enterprise in Rui County, with an annual turnover of tens of billions, the profit of mechanical processing is very thin. After deducting the cost of materials and labor expenses, there are only a few million profits left on the books every month.

This was the result of Zheng Long investing in factory land in his early years and not having to pay rent.

On the other hand, his son Zheng Bocheng has just started to try to invest large sums of money, and in terms of profits alone, he is almost surpassing him.

This made Zheng Long feel a little embarrassed.

However, he was secretly happy in his heart: "Young people are still smart!"

While being happy that his son had become smart, he began to give long speeches at the family dinner table every day at mealtime, using his own success stories to teach his son, and telling him not to get carried away by a small achievement.

After all, the elders are all very proud, especially those who have successfully started their own business like Zheng Long. Once they sit down at the table and take a few sips of wine, they dare to talk about everything, and are well-versed in history and current events.

Who could have expected that Zheng Bocheng would start the yacht sales business just a few days after his successful investment in Chenji.

He goes out every few days to hang out with the rich second-generations in the circle on a yacht, and is never home even at mealtime. How can Zheng Long feel at ease about this?
So taking advantage of today's dinner, Zheng Long planned to take his son out for a drink and have a heart-to-heart talk between father and son.

As a result, the table was filled with food and the drinks had just been served, but my son had to go out to work overtime before he even picked up his chopsticks.

How could Zheng Long not get angry?
No matter how big the business is, can it be more important than having a meal with your family?
However, when he learned that Zheng Bocheng had already sold more than 20 yachts and earned more than million in commissions alone, Zheng Long's hand on the chopsticks on the table naturally loosened.

Because he found that his beloved son, whom he had held in the palm of his hand, had unknowingly reached the age of 30.

"My father is a hero and my son is a hero! Who dares to say that my Bocheng is not making progress?" Zheng Long drank the bayberry wine in his glass in one gulp, with a proud smile on his face. Even his wife Lin Yue'e echoed him and kept pouring wine for Zheng Dad: "Husband, Bocheng is really becoming more and more like you when you were young and just started your business! Just this drive, it's exactly the same as yours!"

As soon as the words fell, the couple smiled at each other and stared at Zheng Bocheng's departing back, their eyes full of relief as if "the landlord's stupid son has made it".

……

Chen Jue didn't know that the scandal between him and the female star would actually turn out to be a blessing in disguise, leading to a surge in the sales of Rubik's Cube Yachts in the country.

However, the chaos on the Internet gradually faded away as Cube 002 sailed away.

Three days later, the port of Zarubino in the Far East.

The timber purchasing group, which had experienced an ocean-going high-speed yacht trip, finally arrived at this natural ice-free port at noon that day.

The old businessman who was in charge of the reception had been waiting for a long time at the berth at the port terminal with several Red Flag commercial vehicles.

Seeing Chen Jue leading a large group of people down, Lao Shang's eyes sparkled with the green light of US dollars. He trotted over to greet them and said, "Welcome to the Far East! I am Chen Shang, the general manager of Red Star Trading, and also Chen Jue's cousin. I will arrange the itinerary for everyone in the next few days and make sure you have fun."

After that, a group of Russians dressed in traditional Russian costumes surrounded them, presented wreaths and black bread to everyone, and started singing and dancing.

After all, this trip is for business, so this kind of reception must be arranged.

The old businessman took the opportunity to secretly make an OJBK gesture to Chen Jue, indicating that his boss Yuandong had made all the arrangements.

As for Zhang Chengcheng's girlfriend and Mu Tou's buddy, they have been having fun with Chen Jue on the yacht these days, some going sea fishing, some enjoying the scenery, and having a great time.

After spending a few days together, I also learned a lot about the details of Red Star Trading from Chen Jue's drunken nonsense.

I know that this is a large-scale trading group spanning many countries, involved in industries ranging from food to timber, steel, oil, etc., and its methods in the Far East are extremely rough.

Not to mention the distant future, the wood that they planned to purchase came from the hands of this big-nosed merchant.

So after everyone got off the boat, before they had time to adapt to the switch from sea to land, Zhang Chengcheng and others hurriedly greeted each other politely: "Hello, Mr. Shang, we'll have to trouble you to entertain us for the next few days!"

Everyone behaved in a friendly manner as soon as they met.

As for the big star Zhang Ruonan, she followed her best friend throughout the whole process, looking at this scenic ice-free port.

It is now September, the time when summer and autumn meet. When the group left Shanghai, everyone there was still wearing short sleeves.

But the weather in the Far East began to turn cold, jumping from summer to late autumn.

Even some areas further north have seen the first snow of the year, which has also made the sea level in Zarubino Port very high.

Standing on the pier and looking into the distance, the blue sky and the autumn sea level complement each other. The dry and cold sea breeze blowing on people is a bit chilly but very pleasant.

However, what interested Zhang Ruonan the most was that after the convoy took the group to customs inspection, they were taken to a super-large cube-shaped warehouse.

The size of this enclosed warehouse is terrifyingly large. It looks much bigger than those integrated shopping malls such as Wanda, Tianjie and Wuyue in China.

As the electric gates of the warehouse opened, the piles of logs acted like a magnet, pinning the experienced timber merchants nearby to their spots.

"So thick! So big! So much material!"

"Look at these growth rings, my goodness! They are as dense as toilet paper!"

"Mr. Chen didn't fool us. These are indeed top-grade ecological woods!"

"Old Zhao! You have the best nose among us. Come and smell the bark. Is there even the slightest smell of pesticides on it?"

When everyone saw the logs appear, they could no longer contain their excitement and ran over to look around.

The timber merchant named Lao Zhao couldn't even contain his excitement and asked with a trembling voice, "Mr. Shang...Mr. Shang, how much material do you have here?"

Having been in the timber business for half his life, Lao Zhao had only seen logs of this size in the International Timber City in Manzhouli.

If all the inventory in this warehouse is exclusive to Red Star Trading, then this connection is truly incredible!
The old merchant smiled and pointed out three fingers: "Not much, this warehouse has only about 30 cubic meters, and we plan to ship it to Yangshan Port by sea. If you can eat it all, I have more new goods at my lumberyard."

As soon as these words were spoken, the dozen or so timber merchants present at the scene couldn't help but take a deep breath of cold air from the Far East.

"30 cubic meters? And they are all ecological wood of this specification!"

"Oh my god! Isn't this warehouse worth at least 3 or 40 billion?"

"So damn arrogant! I have been dealing with wood all my life, and this time I finally met a real master in the industry."
