Only after being reborn did I realize how fascinating the world of the rich is.

After listening to Li Xiaofeng's analysis, Lü Zhendong looked at him with some emotion and couldn't help but ask, "Third brother, how did you come up with these ideas?"

If I hadn't been your classmate and watched you grow step by step over the years, I would never have believed you were still a student. I would have thought you were a cunning old fox!

Li Xiaofeng rolled his eyes at him, annoyed: "Get out of here. If you have something to say, say it. If you don't, don't cause trouble. The Cheng family is at a critical moment right now, and no one is here to waste time talking nonsense with you!"

Cheng Zhiyuan sighed, his tone heavy, "It's truly heartbreaking to watch our Cheng family's business empire crumble on the verge of collapse!"

Li Xiaofeng, who was standing next to him, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Fourth brother, we can't worry about that now. The most important thing is to preserve the vitality of your Cheng family. As long as you have money, your Cheng family can make a comeback in the future."

In addition, the domestic environment is getting better and better, and there are countless businesses to do. Does your Cheng family really want to hang yourself on this one tree?

Besides, this is a gray industry after all. Local governments might be a little more tolerant of your industry now, in order to boost GDP and tax revenue.

As the domestic economy develops, your industry's share of the economy will decrease, and the government, for the sake of its image, will inevitably crack down on this industry severely!

Let me put it this way, this industry has no future!

Cheng Zhiyuan sighed again and said, "Third brother, the method you mentioned is the only way out for our Cheng family right now. Although we will inevitably suffer some losses, we should still sell at an 80% discount."

"Thank you so much. Without your suggestion, our Cheng family would have suffered a huge loss this time. Before you came, I had already decided to sell the shares at half price!"

Li Xiaofeng smiled and said nonchalantly, "No need to thank me, we're good brothers, helping each other out is only right!"

Then, he turned to Lü Zhendong beside him and said, "Second brother, the fourth brother's family must be very busy right now. Let's not bother them here. Let's go back!"

Cheng Zhiyuan quickly grabbed Li Xiaofeng and said sincerely, "Third brother, what are you doing? You've come all this way to my house, you should at least eat before you leave!"

Li Xiaofeng waved his hand and said with a smile, "Fourth brother, don't worry, you'll definitely have to have this meal later. But for now, you should take care of your family matters first!"

You're overwhelmed with problems right now, your head is full of lawsuits, you can't even enjoy this meal. Once things have settled down in your Cheng family, my second son and I will come find you again!

Lu Zhendong, standing to the side, also said earnestly, "Yes, Lao San is right. We're all brothers. Why can't we have this meal today? Business is important. You go and do your thing!"

After another argument with Cheng Zhiyuan, Li Xiaofeng and Lü Zhendong resolutely left the Cheng family.

Cheng Zhiyuan is a precocious guy, and this is a major test in his life. As long as he can get through it, I believe he will become more and more mature in the future.

On the way back, Li Xiaofeng jokingly asked Lü Zhendong, "Second brother, how's your relationship with that chubby little woman named Shen Jiayi going?"

"Not bad!" Lu Zhendong grinned slyly.

Seeing his demeanor, Li Xiaofeng guessed most of the story and said with a smile, "That little fat woman hasn't already won you over, has she?"

"What are you saying? What do you mean she got me? It was me who got her!"

"Alright, alright, it doesn't matter who wins over whom. We'll graduate in six months. What are your plans after that?"

"What other plans do I have? I'll just go back to work at the family company. With the Shen family's help, my dad is also thinking of entering the real estate market!"

"That's great! This way, your Lü family has taken another step forward!"

Lu Zhendong said listlessly, "Actually, I shouldn't like this industry. Working in a construction company means dealing with all sorts of big and small things every day. There are just too many troubles. For example, my dad has been busy almost every day since I can remember."

I feel that this is not the life I want!

"So what kind of life do you want?"

"Hehe, I wish I could have three meals a day with plenty of meat and fish, be surrounded by beautiful women, and make money just by lying down every day!" Lu Zhendong's eyes gleamed as he said this.

Li Xiaofeng smiled but didn't say anything.

Lu Zhendong immediately lowered his head, sighed, and said, "I guess I can only dream about this kind of thing from now on. That woman Shen Jiayi is watching me like I'm a thief all the time!"

"Actually, I don't quite understand either. Your dad has been busy all his life, what is the purpose of making money? Is it for his wife and children? But from what you're saying, it seems that apart from giving you money, he hasn't really taken care of you much!"

Now that your family is so wealthy, why would you marry someone you don't like and do things you don't enjoy?

Lu Zhendong sighed and said, "I don't know either. Maybe it's to earn more money! Sometimes, I hear my dad say that it's not that he doesn't want to stop, it's that he simply can't stop."

The moment he opened his eyes in the morning, he felt as if countless people were opening their mouths, begging him for food. If he stopped, what would happen to the brothers who had followed him all these years?

Li Xiaofeng sneered and said irritably, "If a person wants to stop, there's no such thing as not being able to stop. What do you mean by so many mouths to feed? If your dad quits, do you think these people will really starve to death?"

Second brother, don't blame me for being blunt, but the so-called "eating with your mouth open" is just a self-aggrandizing compliment, only expressed in a humble tone.

The reason he says he can't stop is simply because he doesn't want to stop. He wants to earn more money, and this career can bring him honor, social status, and satisfy his desire for power and influence.

Lu Zhendong glanced at him but didn't say anything.

Li Xiaofeng smiled again and said in a calm tone, "When you reach your father's position one day, you'll understand that feeling!"

However, I'm different. I don't like to build a business myself; I prefer to be an investor behind the scenes.

In fact, I also hope that I will be able to live a life free from financial worries, surrounded by beautiful women, and make money while lying at home. I believe this is the ultimate goal of all men.

However, you only think about it in your heart, while I am moving towards this goal step by step!
