Chapter 243 Settlement of Accounts
The cartoon clock on the wall ticked loudly in the quiet night.

He Daqi felt that this watch was much louder than the original one. It kept ringing, which distracted him and made him unable to calm down.

Zhou Huimin came out of the bathroom, wiping her hair with her head tilted to one side, and was greeted by He Daqi's annoying questioning voice: "Originally, that wall clock was fine. Why did you change it when you had nothing better to do?"

This bastard is really annoying sometimes. After I finally finish work and get together with you, he actually starts to find fault with me.

Zhou Huimin threw the wet towel on He Daqi's face and responded unhappily, "I'm happy with it. I think the boxy one I had before was ugly. I'll feel better if I change it to the cartoon bear one."

There was a faint scent of shampoo on the towel. He Daqi lay on the bed after eating the fruit without washing up. He didn't want to get well now, so he took the wet towel and wiped his face and hands.

Zhou Huimin tutted in disdain, went over and pulled the towel out of He Daqi's hand, and complained, "You're so lazy!"

She hung the towel on the clothesline on the balcony of the bedroom, and when she looked back, she found that He Daqi had taken off his clothes and was ready to go to bed. Zhou Huimin laughed angrily, and went over and pulled the naked bastard off the bed by the ear.

"Just wipe your face and hands and you don't need to wash up? You were on the set this morning and took a plane this afternoon. I don't know how much dust is on you. Are you going to rub it all onto the quilt just like that?"

After pulling and kicking He Daqi into the bathroom, Zhou Huimin turned around and got on the bed angrily.

As a result, after watching the news on her phone for a long time, He Daqi didn't come out. Zhou Huimin was afraid that the noise would disturb the two babies sleeping next door with Zhou's mother, so she got out of bed, walked to the bathroom door and knocked: "How long do you plan to take a shower?"

He Daqi opened the door and said, "I'm going to dry myself off before going out."

"You are really amazing now." Zhou Huimin replied speechlessly.

As soon as He Daqi came out of the bathroom and lay down on the bed, Zhou Huimin came over and lay on his chest.

"Let's move to a new house. This one feels a bit small. The swimming pool is inconvenient and it's still a bit cold to swim in the winter. Also, our wall is too low. People passing by can see what's going on in the yard."

He Daqi gently stroked her hair and agreed with a smile, "Then let's move on. Let's ask the real estate agent about it. We can move on to a bigger one this time, but it's definitely not going to happen in a short time. After buying a new villa, we have to renovate it, and it will take another six months to ventilate it after renovation."

"I want to develop a community myself." Zhou Huimin said softly.

"Huh? What did you say?" He Daqi thought he had misheard.

Zhou Huimin leaned forward, tilted her head back, and looked He Daqi in the eye. "I'm thinking of developing a residential complex myself. We'll use our own property management when the time comes, and we won't have to worry about reporters sneaking in. We can design the houses however we want, without having to choose ones that others have already built. I want to build a big swimming pool and a children's playground in the middle of the complex, so that when the kids grow up, we don't have to take them out to play."

He Daqi hissed, and after a long moment, he reminded him, "Our platform's public beta will cost at least 400 to 500 million yuan. I don't know the exact amount for building a residential complex, but it's probably more than 300 million, right? Penguin went public in June, and you signed an agreement to cover the cost. We don't even know how much it will cost. Do you have that much money?"

Zhou Huimin hesitated and said, "...I do."

It would be strange if He Daqi could believe it. It has been more than two years since he traveled here. He has gradually become familiar with this world and has a rough idea of ​​the prices.

When buying the office building, Zhou Huimin said that all the money she had earned before was spent on it. No matter how you calculate it, it is impossible for her to earn so much in two years, especially since Zhou Huimin also spent more than 300 million to buy Penguin shares.

"You have nothing? You run a banknote printing factory? You think you can get rich just by talking nonsense?" He Daqi said with some amusement.

Zhou Huimin stopped lying down and sat up straight, and began to settle the account with He Daqi with a serious face.

"You said our platform will burn 400 to 500 million, right? Have you forgotten that Wang Rui is going to join the market? You are not going to leave him a share? This is just Wang Rui. I guess there will be others joining in later. Do you believe that after Wang Rui starts pouring money in, a lot of people will come to discuss cooperation. By then, if we can spend 100 million, it means that our platform has no future.
Then there's the community building. Who told you I was planning to develop it myself? Lin Jianyue has been planning to develop real estate in Sijiucheng. When he gets the land, we can directly contact him for cooperation. I've seen their project plan. The 240,000 square meter community will cost less than 400 million yuan to build.
This includes buying land, landscaping, common areas, and garages. His project plans a total of eight 27-story high-rise buildings, and the rest are villas. Do you think we can get two high-rise buildings and a villa if we pay more than million?
As for Penguin, I only own a little over 300 million shares. If the stock price really falls to the point where it can't fall any lower, I can't throw in another 300 million to help raise the stock price. 100 million is a lot if I can throw in more, but wouldn't that just trap myself?"

The little mouth kept chattering, leaving He Daqi stunned.

After a long while, He Daqi asked dryly, "Tell me the truth, how much money do you have?"

"I still have some money in the Hong Kong stock market, and there are some idle properties over there. Except for those that are rented out and used by ourselves, I plan to sell the rest. Anyway, we will settle in Beijing in the future. If the sales are good, plus the existing cash in the account, it will be at least this amount." Zhou Huimin gestured happily to He Daqi.

He Daqi was completely numb. He said in a dark tone, "You are so rich, but you still cheated me out of my money. Are you still a human being?"

"We weren't married or had children at the time. I was afraid you'd suddenly change your mind, so I wanted to put all your money in my hands so you wouldn't have any money to spend on fooling around..."

The more Zhou Huimin spoke, the lower her voice became. Maybe she felt that He Daqi's eyes were a bit annoying, or maybe she was angry out of shame. She frowned, raised her head and asked in return: "What's wrong with me cheating you of your money back then? You are asking me now because you want to settle the accounts with me, right? I have given birth to two children for you. Your money is my money!" "Yes, there is nothing wrong with that!" He Daqi smiled and nodded madly.

Even so, Zhou Huimin was still unhappy. She stretched out her hand to pinch He Daqi's neck and shook it hard, saying angrily: "Don't look at me like that! I always feel like you are laughing at me with this look!"

"Help! Someone is murdering my husband!"

He Daqi stuck out his tongue and shouted softly, then seeing that Zhou Huimin still didn't stop, he immediately started to tickle Zhou Huimin.

He stopped only when Zhou Huimin was about to faint from laughing.

"You're so annoying, that's all you can do." Zhou Huimin took a deep breath, humming and moving back and forth on him.

He Daqi smiled and hugged her, not letting her move. He smiled and said, "Okay, stop making trouble. Let me tell you something serious. My uncle's baby is about to be born. Grandma told me today that they are going over to help. Should we hire two Filipino maids in a few days?"

"Row."

The two of them hugged each other and chatted for a while. After He Daqi yawned, they both felt sleepy. They didn't know who closed his eyes first while talking.

the next day.

The third floor of Yonghui Qiming Building.

A group of people gathered around Xu Weiguo's computer and watched him operate it.

As he clicked the "Follow" button on the webpage and the same account was displayed in the client, everyone immediately applauded.

He Daqi didn't understand, but he also chattered for a long time.

After the crowd dispersed joyfully, he whispered to Xu Weiguo, "Is this ready for public testing? Why are you all so happy?"

Xu Weiguo shook his head. Knowing He Daqi didn't understand technology, he explained seriously, "No, this is just fixing some major bugs. Now it can run normally. We also need to continue testing to prevent any bugs that directly crash the system. Crashes are not a big deal, but we are afraid of frequent crashes or data loss. This will give users a very bad experience during the public beta."

He Daqi nodded and asked, "Is that so... Brother Xu, another investor wants to ask when our platform will be available for public testing. Can you give us a specific timeline?"

"I really can't say for sure. If everything goes well, we'll probably be able to launch the public beta around mid-July or August. However... if some issues remain unresolved, or if there's a bug and we can't find the code, then we won't be able to predict the exact date."

He Daqi was a little disappointed when he heard this. Without saying anything else, he smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work. The sooner the better."

If He Daqi wanted to hide his emotions now, few people would be able to tell. Xu Weiguo didn't notice anyway. He thought it was the boss trying to cheer him up, so he smiled and said, "It's only right. The sooner we launch the public beta, the sooner we can grow. By then, the team will be bigger, and we won't have to work overtime every day."

As soon as he said this, He Daqi immediately asked back, "Work overtime? You don't have enough manpower? Wouldn't it be faster if we added a few more people?"

Xu Weiguo quickly waved his hand, "No! Mr. He, even if you add more people now, it will take about a month for them to get familiar with the business, and we'll have to assign people to train the newcomers. It's better to let the current team focus on development. If we really want to add more people, we have to wait until after the public beta, because by then we won't be able to do without them."

"Okay, you continue with your work. I'll go somewhere else first." He Daqi nodded happily, then turned and left the Fengyu Tonglu work area.

When I was about to go to Zhou Huimin's office, I saw Yan Jiu lying at the front desk chatting with Cui Bo.

However, Cui Bo was a little indifferent, making Yan Jiu look like a dog wagging its tail.

"You guys are actually having a secret romance in the office?" He Daqi came over and said something mean.

"Come on, who would want to have a relationship with him? He does nothing all day and just brags." Cui Bo laughed disdainfully.

Yan Jiu also waved his hand: "Mr. He, you misunderstood. I just wanted to ask Sister Cui about the gossip in the entertainment industry."

Well, there was no fun to watch. He Daqi shrugged and said, "You guys continue." Then he went to Zhou Huimin's office.
