Chapter 300 Deciding on the Investment Direction
Autumn is the harvest season. Wild medicinal herbs have grown for a year and many of them can be harvested.
Lin Shu was busy running to the mountains for half a month, basically leaving early and returning late every day.
And Gu Jiu is also very busy.
Originally, there were a lot of things waiting for him to deal with in the company, and he was also required to attend the provincial meeting. It was obvious that the one million US dollars he got back from the United States was extremely attractive.
The higher-ups are very concerned about what his one million US dollars will be used for.
That day, Lin Shu came down from the mountain and entered the city, where thousands of houses were already dark. When he got home, Gu Jiu had not returned yet.
Her parents and children at home were already waiting for her to have dinner.
"Why did you come back so late today?"
As soon as I opened the security door on the first floor, changed my shoes and went upstairs, Liu Xiao'e was standing in the stairwell on the second floor and asked with concern.
Lin Shu patted his clothes and walked upstairs. "The herb we went to today is growing well, so I stayed a little longer. Mom, you haven't eaten yet?"
"I'm not waiting for you."
"Next time we come back late, you don't have to wait for us. Just take the children and eat first."
Lin Shu entered the house, avoided the child who rushed towards her, and went upstairs to wash up first.
After running in the mountains for a whole day, there were many poisonous substances there. I don’t know how many poisonous substances were on my body. I had to take a shower before I could interact with the children.
Otherwise, children’s skin is delicate and it would be troublesome if they get skin allergies due to the contact with the skin.
When she came downstairs after taking a shower with wet hair, Liu Xiao'e had already fed her two children.
"Are you hungry? Come and have dinner. Brother Jiu hasn't come back yet. I don't know if he will come home for dinner tonight. We left some food for him to warm in the pot."
Liu Xiao'e asked the two children to go to their room to play with toys and asked everyone to eat first. Since Gu Jiu came back too late, she would not wait for him.
Lin Shu pulled out a chair and sat down. "He might have an appointment tonight, otherwise he would have come back earlier."
Lin Dashan poured himself a glass of wine and asked with concern: "You guys are so busy every day since you came back this time, what on earth are you busy with, Brother Jiu?"
Before I went abroad, I also ran a company but I had never seen him so busy. He was so busy that he didn’t even have time to go home for dinner.
"We got one million this time, we can't just let it lie in the bank and earn interest. The higher-ups want us to invest. Gu Jiu may be considering where to invest."
Gu Jiu still had no idea how to proceed, but if he had any idea, he would definitely discuss it with her.
I just don't know what specific message the province will convey by asking him to attend the meeting this time.
In the evening, Gu Jiu came back, took a shower and lay on the bed. He then told her about the content of the meeting.
To be honest, during this period, the country was in a state of disrepair and there were many industries to enter, but it was difficult to choose a potential one, start from scratch, and make it big and strong.
Lin Shu was very curious about which area Gu Jiu would choose to invest in?
"I want to use this money to build a battery factory. The higher-ups gave me two options: either buy the battery factory in City X below, or approve the land to build a new one."
"What's your choice?"
"I choose the latter." Gu Jiu said without hesitation.
Acquiring a state-owned factory would be very troublesome in terms of subsequent personnel arrangements, so it would be better to build a new one instead of spending that energy on it.
If he wants to build a new one, he can choose the provincial capital, which will be much easier to manage.
Lin Shu knew that the most common batteries in life at this time were still dry batteries, and it would take a few years for nickel-hydrogen batteries to be used in portable electronic devices such as mobile phones and laptops.
Later, batteries were used in electric bicycles, cars and other fields. It can be said that batteries are used in many fields. Therefore, the prospects for battery factories are very broad.
"I support you. Career is only a part of life. The factory is built in the provincial capital, so it is convenient for you to go home every day and it is more convenient for us to manage it. If you are in another place, it is not a problem to be away from home for a long time."
Gu Jiu hugged Lin Shu and kissed her on the forehead. "Thank you for your understanding, my wife. Now that we have sufficient funds, we will not only produce alkaline batteries, nickel-cadmium batteries, etc., but also recruit talents to develop new batteries. I believe our battery factory will have a very bright future."
Lin Shu laughed and said, "You look so excited. Were you afraid that I would object at first?"
"I was a little worried at first." Gu Jiu chuckled and kissed Lin Shu on the mouth flatteringly, "But I believe that even if my wife doesn't understand at first, she will definitely understand and support me through my explanation."
Lin Shu pushed his head away and glanced at the two children in the crib next to her. Seeing that they were sleeping soundly, she said coquettishly, "Don't make a fuss. If they wake up later, you can go and comfort them."
"A sleeping child won't wake up even if thunder strikes. Don't worry, it's okay."
The hands under the quilt became a little restless. I have been so busy in the past half month that I haven't been able to improve my relationship with my wife.
The consequence of a night of indulgence is that when you wake up the next day, the sun is already high in the sky and your limbs are so weak that it is impossible for you to climb the mountain.
I have been busy for half a month, so today I will just take a day off at home.
The good mood of resting at home for a day was instantly shattered when I washed, changed clothes and went downstairs and saw the people sitting in the living room downstairs.
"Shushu, are you up?"
"How did you come?"
Lin Shu's voice rang out almost at the same time as hers.
The enthusiastic smile on Lin Mei's face froze for a moment. She cursed him in her heart for being so unkind, but still maintained a smile on her face.
"I went to the south to buy some goods a few days ago. They were just sold out these few days ago. My son Yongzi said he would take a break for two days before going back to restock. So, I heard that you guys came back from abroad, so I came to see you."
Lin Shu raised his eyebrows. Are you so kind?
"I appreciate your kindness. I am not yet 70 or 80 years old. I don't need you to come and see me. I am still young. I have money and free time, so I can live a good life."
Liu Xiao'e glared at Lin Shu secretly. He was a guest and there was no need to be confrontational as soon as they met.
Lin Mei gritted her teeth secretly: "Haha, Shushu's words are becoming more and more powerful. As expected, being a boss is different."
Lin Shu ignored her. He had just gotten up at this hour and his stomach was already ripping with hunger. He wouldn't have the energy to argue if he didn't fill his stomach.
The warm breakfast was brought out from the pot in the kitchen, a bowl of eight-treasure porridge and two big meat buns.
Simple and nutritious.
Lin Shu took a sip of porridge, tore off a piece of bun skin and ate it slowly, glancing at Lin Mei, "This way of speaking is not your style. I came here today to talk about something. I don't have time to practice Tai Chi with you here."
Then she asked Liu Xiao'e: "Mom, where are the children?"
Liu Xiao'e: "Jiu Ge'er pushed the stroller and took them downstairs to play. You and Mei Zi have something to say. I'll go downstairs to check on them. I don't know if Jiu Ge'er can handle taking care of two children by himself."
As soon as Liu Xiao'e left, she heard the security door downstairs slam shut. Lin Shu finished all the eight-treasure porridge in the bowl, put the bowl down and wiped his mouth, "You still haven't said anything?"
No one comes to visit you for no reason. Lin Mei must have something to do when she comes here today.
Lin Shu was so sure, Lin Mei took a deep breath, smiled and asked casually: "I heard that you got one million US dollars abroad?"
Lin Shu continued to eat the bun without saying a word, waiting for her next words.
"There are very few people with a net worth of 10,000 yuan in China now. What does one million yuan mean? And it's in US dollars. I heard that US dollars are more valuable..."
Lin Mei met Lin Shu's half-smile, and she was at a loss for words.
"... Zhang Yong and I have been dealing in clothing and electronic products from the south for a few times, and our business is pretty good. We thought we could take advantage of the opportunity to make more money and open a store in the provincial capital so that we can have a stable supply of goods and sales channels. However, we are still a little short of money to open a store, and knowing that you made a lot of money this time, we thought we could make some money with you."
“Are we on good terms?”
"what?"
Lin Shu stood up from the dining table, slowly walked into the living room, and repeated what he had just said: "I said, do you think our relationship is good now? So good that I can lend you money unconditionally?"
"Lin Shu, we are cousins after all. If we want to gain a foothold in a foreign land, we have to help each other. You helped me this time, maybe I can help you next time..."
Lin Shu didn't want to hear her empty promises, so he interrupted her, "Why do you think I would ask you for help? What can you do to help me?"
With her current strength in the provincial capital, why does Lin Mei think she can help her solve the problem that she can't solve by herself?
Just by drawing big promises?
Lin Mei was looked down upon and became a little angry. "Lin Shu, don't be so arrogant. Things change over time. Flowers don't last forever. Can you guarantee that you will never ask for help from others in your life?"
"I can not guarantee."
Just when Lin Mei was about to say something else proudly, Lin Shu continued, "But I can guarantee that I will never beg you for money in this life, so why are you so confident that I will lend you money?"
"us......"
"Don't talk about cousins. When you tried to ruin my reputation, you didn't consider that we are cousins."
When Lin Mei heard this, she felt guilty for a moment, "When did I ever want to ruin your reputation?"
Refuse to admit it.
Seeing her denying it, Lin Shu couldn't help but sneer, "I just said it, I'm not even 70 or 80 years old yet, I have a good memory. You said some specious things in front of my door in front of the neighbors, weren't you trying to mislead everyone into thinking that I'm a woman with a flirtatious personality? If my reputation is ruined, the Xie family will naturally come to cancel the engagement.
If I cancel the engagement, won't you be able to be with Jie Chunlei openly? That's a good plan, but even if I give Jie Chunlei to you, you won't be able to enjoy everything in the Jie family."
Lin Mei was shocked. She didn't expect that Lin Shu had seen through her at that time. But since he saw through her, why did she take the opportunity to reconcile with the Jie family and break off the engagement?
"Since you knew my plan, why did you break off the engagement with Chunlei? Did you hook up with Gu Jiu at that time?"
"Don't speculate about me with your dirty brain. I'm not as shameless as you. The reason why I broke off the engagement was because I knew that the Xie family was not a good match. Since I knew it was a pit of fire, why would I foolishly jump into it?"
Lin Mei's face was grim when she thought of the days in the Jie family. Seeing her pale face, Lin Shu raised the corners of his mouth slightly: "The facts prove that my choice is right. The life I have now is something that the Jie family could not give me, and the free life I have is something you can't envy."
"Since I've made it very clear, just go back and don't come to my house anymore. You and I will never be able to be sisters in love in this life."
I didn't take revenge on her in this life, which was already generous of her. It's a bit difficult to forget the grudge with a smile.
