Chapter 394: Dream Quest (1)
The reason why Li Xin feels relaxed now is because he has determined the direction. After that, the rest of the things are up to you, so leave it to time, and you just have to wait.
Today is the weekend, and after being busy with these things, Li Xin suddenly feels that the next Saturday and Sunday are very free, and she doesn't know what to do.
He thought for a while, picked up the phone and called Xia Xiaona: "Are you free the day after tomorrow?"
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"Do you want to hang out?"
"Okay, where are you going?" said Xia Xiaona with great interest.
"Didn't you say you wanted to eat the stewed chicken that you ate on the southern expedition that year? I'll take you to eat it tomorrow. ”
"Really, don't fool me. ”
"Of course it's true, why am I fooling you?"
"Didn't you say that it would take six or seven hours to go back and forth, and that tomorrow would be enough time for a day?"
"So I discussed with you in advance, I want you to go back and ask your parents, see if they are at ease, let you go out with me for two days, stay outside for one night tomorrow night, and come back the day after tomorrow." If not, then we'll leave early tomorrow morning, and you will drive on the way there, and I'll drive when we come back. In this way, even if it takes six or seven hours to go back and forth, we can still come back at nine o'clock in the evening. ”
Xia Xiaona said: "It is definitely not okay to stay out for one night, and my parents definitely do not agree." I can't tell them about it, I can only tell them that I'm going out to play, I don't have to tell them to go that far, and I'll be back by 9 o'clock tomorrow night. ”
Li Xin said: "That's fine, then I'll pick you up downstairs at your house at 8:00 tomorrow morning, and we'll go directly to that place." After that, after lunch, I rushed back, on the way you can take a look at the scenery along the way, dinner or go back to Jiangcheng to eat, send you home before 9 o'clock. ”
"Okay, then I'll be waiting for you downstairs on time tomorrow morning. ”
Early in the morning of the second day, Li Xin got up early and went downstairs to eat breakfast, drove to the gas station to fill the fuel tank, and then went to Xia Xiaona's house to pick her up.
When Li Xin came downstairs to Xia Xiaona's house, Xia Xiaona was already standing on the side of the road.
After Xia Xiaona got into the car, Li Xin said, "You can drive." ”
"I don't know how to go, so I'd better drive it. ”
"It's simple, get on the highway and keep going, there are not many intersections. ”
"No, no, I've never driven on the highway before, so you better drive." ”
"It's okay, take the highway on the way to go, I'll drive, don't you want to see the scenery along the way on the way back, then you have to take the national highway, and you will drive when the time comes." ”
"Okay. ”
Li Xin asked while driving, "Did your parents ask you where you are going today?"
"I didn't ask, I didn't tell them, I just said that we were going to go on a spring outing today and go to the mountains to see the scenery. ”
"It seems a bit early to go up the mountain to see the scenery in the past two days. ”
"Yes, but that's the only way to tell them, otherwise they won't worry about me going. ”
The car pulled onto the highway and sped towards its destination.
Xia Xiaona looked at the scenery outside the window with great interest and asked, "Wasn't this the road we took at the beginning?"
"No, the highway wasn't open to traffic at that time. ”
"You were so stupid back then!" Xia Xiaona laughed.
Xia Xiaona was very happy to be able to relive that journey again.
At that time, it was almost exactly the same as now, and Li Xin was also sitting next to him. But at that time, the relationship between the two was like a stranger, and during the whole trip, Li Xin did not take the initiative to talk to Xia Xiaona.
Because there were Wu Bin and others in the car at that time, coupled with Xia Xiaona's reserve, even if she had a good impression of Li Xin, she couldn't find a chance to get close to Li Xin.
This time is different, this time the two are traveling as lovers, and there are no outsiders next to them, so Xia Xiaona is full of expectations for the romance of this trip.
"Why do you say I'm stupid?" Li Xin said.
"It's stupid, don't admit it!" Xia Xiaona said.
In her eyes, although there were many regrets on that half-month trip, it was also a very good memory.
If Li Xin was not so wooden at that time, the relationship between the two would have changed a lot for such a long time, and it would not have been until now that the relationship between the two was determined.
You know, many years have passed since then. Xia Xiaona didn't know what Li Xin thought over the years, but she had been in love with Li Xin bitterly in her heart, and it was completely a state of unrequited love.
Fortunately, I finally got what I wanted now, otherwise I don't know when it would have to.
Xia Xiaona's gentle beauty also made Li Xin feel like a spring breeze. Especially her empathy, even though the two have been colleagues for many years, it still makes Li Xin feel that they hate to see each other late.
He also felt that if he had discovered Xia Xiaona's beauty at the beginning, he might not have taken so many detours emotionally.
In Li Xin's heart, agreeing to take Xia Xiaona on this journey again is not only a compensation for her, but also hopes that this journey that once brought her good luck can bring good luck to her again.
Li Xin felt that the good luck that that trip brought to him was the first meaning of Xia Xiaona's good impression of herself. Regarding this, Li Xin only learned about it after she recently confirmed her relationship with Xia Xiaona.
As for the second meaning, that is, during that journey, Li Xin made his biggest money at that time in sugar futures.
Now, the same thing happened again, because the natural disaster caused the futures price to go up, and he bought another 1,000 lots in the futures.
So he hopes that revisiting this journey will bring him good luck again, and in a few months, he will be able to make another big profit on this 1,000 lots of cane sugar futures list.
He didn't say either of these things to Xia Xiaona.
Maybe Xia Xiaona could feel Li Xin's first-layer meaning, but she couldn't guess Li Xin's second-layer meaning.
Hearing Xia Xiaona say this, Li Xin said generously: "If you're stupid, you're stupid, just don't be stupid now." ”
At this time, he also had to admit that he was really missing a tendon at that time.
It is not unreasonable to say that Xia Xiaona is smart and empathetic.
Based on her experience as a colleague with Li Xin for many years, she knows that Li Xin has talked about at least two girlfriends after that.
If other girls talk about it to this point, they will definitely ask Li Xin about her previous love experience. In that case, it will make the atmosphere more awkward.
But Xia Xiaona wouldn't do this, she knew that she hadn't confirmed her relationship with Li Xin at that time, and what Li Xin did made sense, and it had nothing to do with her. Since you can't control what happened before, you shouldn't ask questions and dwell on it, because that will only cause trouble.
Her eyes are now on the future of the two, and in her eyes, only these are the most important.
Isn't there such a saying? I can't participate in your past, but I will firmly grasp your future.
"You're really not stupid now, but you're bad!" Xia Xiaona said.
"Am I bad?" Li Xin laughed.
"Aren't you bad yet?"
"Then do you like me bad?" Li Xin glanced at Xia Xiaona and reached out to shake her white wrist.
The smart Xia Xiaona found that the topic was a little off, and quickly retracted her hand: "What are you thinking?
Li Xin smiled awkwardly, retracted his hand, and held the steering wheel tightly: "Obey!"
Xia Xiaona suddenly remembered something, changed the subject and asked, "Didn't you say that you are bullish on the price of sugar?
"I've already bought it. ”
"When did you buy it?"
"Yesterday afternoon. ”
"Oh. Are you sure? How much did you buy?"
"I bought 1,000 lots at a price of 4,531 yuan, and I should be sure. ”
"How many tons is 1,000 lots? 10,000 tons?" Xia Xiaona asked.
"Yes, 10,000 tons. ”
"And how much more do you expect it to rise?"
"It should go up another three or four hundred yuan per ton. Li Xin said.
"So how long does it take to make a profit of three or four million dollars?"
"That's expected, but it's hard to say when, maybe a month, maybe three or four months. ”
"Oh, that's right. This is the first time Xia Xiaona has heard Li Xin explicitly say that she is investing in a certain asset, so she didn't know what to say for a while.
Many years ago, when Li Xin was still working as a warehouse keeper at the railway station below, he once asked for some data on the export of cane sugar. At that time, she knew that Li Xin was investing in sugar futures, but at that time, she and Li Xin were just colleagues, and she didn't know at what price Li Xin bought and how much she bought, so she didn't have any concept of profit and loss.
But now it's different, Li Xin told her all the data of this deal. And he and Li Xin are now boyfriend and girlfriend, and Li Xin's profit and loss of this investment have more or less been related to him. This makes it impossible for Xia Xiaona to listen to it as before and put it on the back burner.
She roughly calculated in her heart that it now costs about 40 to 50 million yuan to buy 10,000 tons of sucrose in the market, and the futures market is a margin transaction, and the proportion of margin is about 15%. According to this ratio, Li Xin's investment in these 1,000 lots of cane sugar futures is at least seven or eight million yuan.
This amount of money is an astronomical amount for her, and 10% of the profit and loss is 700,000 or 800,000 yuan.
She wanted to say a few auspicious words to Li Xin, but she didn't know how to say it. I wanted to tell Li Xin two sentences to make him more careful, but I was afraid that I would say the wrong thing.
She was not superstitious, but at this time, she suddenly had a lot of worries and didn't know what to say.
Seeing that the price of sugar stopped falling, Ma Tianming was not in a hurry. He thought to himself: This price drop a little slower will be beneficial to my shipment, and when I sell all the goods, wouldn't it be better for you to fall again?
On Saturday morning, Ma Tianming slept lazily and slept until 11:30 before getting up. After getting up, he immediately called Lin Li: "How is the shipment situation in the past two days?"
Lin Li followed Ma Tianming's instructions and worked overtime to ship. He was not idle early on Saturday, and came to the warehouse early to watch the delivery.
