Chapter 251 Little Sister
Starting this semester, they would be living in the Big Wave Bay mansion.
The mansion gifted by his grandfather was so expensive that even renting it out for a year could earn two or three million Hong Kong dollars. It would be such a waste to rent elsewhere instead of living in such a good house.
Although it was a bit far from school, it was in a beautiful environment and the space was spacious.
Moreover, Jiang Yu had already learned to drive and was planning to buy a Porsche 911. During the winter vacation, she had made an appointment with Nangong Tian to see the car, so getting to and from school wouldn't be a problem.
The next morning, after getting up, Su Yehao saw Nangong Tian and Jiang Yu squatting by the pond feeding the fish, and he stretched, basking in the sun.
His relationship with Jiang Yu was still the same as before, neither distant nor close.
It was the little girl who was getting closer and closer to Jiang Yu. When they were studying at Donghuang Rose Middle School, they were clearly just acquaintances, but now they were as close as best friends...
There were six bodyguards, four security guards, and three nannies at home, as well as a specially hired gardener and a professional pool cleaning team.
Everyone was serving their food, drink, and daily life, so life was naturally wonderful.
Apart from not hiring some young and beautiful girls as domestic workers, there was nothing else to complain about.
It wasn't that he couldn't afford to hire attractive and pretty girls, but this idea was nipped in the bud by Nangong Tian, which made Su Yehao slightly regretful.
Fortunately, the current three nannies were diligent and quite skilled at cooking.
For breakfast, he had a bowl of noodles with nine fresh ingredients, mainly kidney and eel slices. Su Yehao had a great appetite and ate until he burped.
"Brother Hao, so delicious! I knew it was better to listen to you, living here is more comfortable!" Nangong Tian said.
Su Yehao patted his stomach, looked around, and said with a smile, "It's good, but it lacks a bit of a homely feel. It always feels like living in a show flat. Maybe it's because we don't live here often enough, and it will take some time to get used to it. By the way, are you two going to class today?"
Jiang Yu nodded, "Yes, I haven't bought a car yet, so I'll take your car to school."
Su Yehao was secretly delighted. He planned to go see Nong Qingying later. It had been more than ten days since they last met, and if he didn't try to get closer, she would disappear into the sea.
He said, "Then I'll have Driver Ni take you. I haven't been to the company for a long time, so I'll deal with some things later."
Nangong Tian didn't think much about it and joked, "Skipping class on the first day of school, be careful the school expels you. That would be a joke."
"How could they be willing to expel me? The school also knows that I'm busy with business ventures. I'm barely one of the faces of Hong Kong University. Wouldn't it be a slap in their own face to let me pack up and leave?"
Su Yehao's tone was calm. With the initial success of his business, there was a lot of media coverage about him.
Hong Kong University had produced a business genius, and the school was benefiting from it. Therefore, even though he didn't take the exams at the end of last year, his grades in all subjects were excellent. He only needed to show up on campus occasionally. The principal had even suggested inviting him to give a speech and introduce some of his entrepreneurial experience.
In addition, among the many graduates of Hong Kong University every year, as early as November last year, the dean of the School of Business and Management had asked Su Yehao to hire more alumni and provide internship and employment opportunities.
He really didn't have to worry about studying.
Nangong Tian rinsed her mouth, wiped it clean, and was about to go out after finishing her makeup when she suddenly remembered something and asked, "Brother Hao, the thirty million in capital you lent me has made a lot of money now. When should I return it to you?"
"Just return it when I ask you to. The bank isn't urging you, so don't worry. Just leave the account alone. The stocks have great potential for appreciation. Once you finish this deal, you can retire and live off it for the rest of your life. It'll be enough to eat and drink."
Su Yehao sent her to the courtyard and looked at Jiang Yu while speaking, asking, "What about you? Why don't you open an account and buy some too?"
Jiang Yu instantly felt guilty.
In fact, seeing that Nangong Tian had made a lot of money, she had used all her savings from childhood at the beginning of the winter vacation to buy Yahoo, which Su Yehao often talked about.
So far, she had earned more than 40,000 Hong Kong dollars in half a month. Yahoo's stock price had repeatedly hit new highs, rising all the way to sixty-five US dollars.
This made Jiang Yu deeply regretful, because Su Yehao had suggested that they buy Yahoo at the bottom in late October last year. Nangong Tian had listened and ran to her mother to ask for money, but Jiang Yu didn't take it seriously and missed out on earning two or three hundred thousand.
Feeling that Su Yehao would laugh at her if she said she had already bought it, Jiang Yu pretended to be indifferent and said lightly, "I don't have any money!"
Sometimes, Su Yehao felt quite helpless.
He knew that his ideas were correct, but others often didn't listen to his advice, such as asking his father to invest in internet companies, or Uncle Qiu's son Qiu Yaohao's pager business.
More recently, there was Zhao Yimeng, whom he had just met.
Judging from Zhao Yimeng's attitude during their meeting yesterday, she probably took Su Yehao's suggestion as a passing breeze, continuing to focus on "cost reduction" and ignoring how to "increase revenue."
If she had listened to Su Yehao, as long as she took out one billion Hong Kong dollars to invest in Silicon Valley giants, the debt of more than ten billion Hong Kong dollars would be nothing. Perhaps before the arrival of the millennium, she would have the opportunity to reduce the debt ratio of Donghuang Group to zero.
Of course, given the size of Donghuang Group and the complexity of its management, it was inevitably difficult to make decisions, far less easy than it was for Su's father and son.
Thinking of Zhao Yimeng, Su Yehao made a call and said directly after it was connected:
"I want the residential land on Taipa Island first, and it will take about a week to raise the funds. Also, my dad is interested in the Donghuang Central Plaza near the Lisboa. The price still needs to be discussed. Have your mother ask about it when she has time. I can't guarantee it. Whether or not to buy it still depends on my dad's intention. I'll come over to sign the contract when I have time."
"...Thank you, but you're buying land yourself? What are you planning to do?" Zhao Yimeng's voice came through the phone.
Although it was just a project of more than two hundred million Hong Kong dollars, it was a drop in the bucket compared to the debt, but she didn't want to miss any opportunity to cash out at the moment.
According to the situation of Donghuang Group, the key was how to resolve the current difficulties. Once the loan could not be repaid, the entire capital chain would collapse instantly, countless creditors would come to the door, the bank would blacklist them, and the partners would retreat one after another. Even an enterprise with a total market value of hundreds of billions of Hong Kong dollars would be difficult to sustain.
Su Yehao lazily said:
"Of course, I'm buying land to build buildings, hoarding it for five or ten years, and going door-to-door to collect rent all day long. My dad's friend Qiu Wanfeng is a little interested in your family's hotel. I'll let you know after I've confirmed it."
"...Okay, then should I have someone prepare the contract for you to sign first?"
"Yeah, just encountered a little trouble. Why does your voice sound so weak? Why don't you follow me? Brother Hao will take you flying?"
Habitually teasing her, Su Yehao had already gotten into the car.
Zhao Yimeng had a smooth journey from childhood to adulthood, and her ability to withstand pressure was a little weak. At this moment, she was too weak to argue and only said, "Is there anything else? If not, I'm hanging up. I heard that you've been earning a lot lately. Why don't you buy some more?"
"Buying is no problem, how about throwing in a wife?"
"Sure, one for every five hundred million Hong Kong dollars spent."
"???"
Zhao Yimeng continued in a lifeless tone, telling him, "I'll give you my sister, anyway, she said you're handsome..."
