Chapter 157: No Money, No Sense of Security Three Watches, Asking for Tickets, Asking for Subscriptions, Asking for Everyone's Safety and Health!
Lin Zitan and Lin Musen helped the other two drunk people to the car, and then sat in with Lin Musen and fastened their seat belts, with a slight layer of fine sweat on their bodies, the summer in New York came as soon as it came, and they were a little caught off guard!
Lin Zitan started the car, turned a corner and walked towards the road outside, he glanced at the restaurant from a distance, and through the glass window, he seemed to be able to see a figure flickering.
"You guys quarreled just now?" Lin Zitan asked in a cold voice.
"Oh? no. What kind of quarrel, hehe~" Lin Musen smiled unnaturally.
"No matter what, you've all been divorced for so long, what's there to quarrel about? Now that you both have a new family, you'll be fine in the future!" Lin Zi sighed.
"Yes, your mother and I!Alas~ It's been a long time coming. Lin Musen sighed thoughtfully.
The two remained silent until the car was about to enter the city, when Lin Musen suddenly said,
"Isn't your mother's restaurant not profitable?I feel like she looks at the money quite heavily~" Lin Musen asked a little apprehensively, but don't ask, his heart is unbalanced.
"It's okay, but all the people who have lived in the United States seem to value money a lot, because money is too important here, and there is no sense of security without money!" Lin Zitan replied lightly.
“......”
Lin Musen didn't know what to say after hearing this. He has also been in contact with many friends who have returned from abroad, although when he first returned to China, he seemed to have earned millions of dollars, but when it comes to money, it seems that one is more cautious than the other, to put it bluntly, it is very tight to see the money.
Unlike those nouveau riche in China, in order to save face, they are blindly poor and generous, and they wish that anyone who could open their mouths can send a few shots! Before coming this time, he thought that Li Manrui had been in the United States for so many years.
It shouldn't be a big deal to spend some money to entertain them, but looking at her calculating appearance today,
I don't know if I really want to care about this meal money, or because I bragged too much, or I didn't listen to what I said angered this woman, anyway, she must be competing with herself again!
In the remaining few days, Lin Zitan signed up for a tour group for them, a 5-day tour of the eastern United States, passing through Niagara Falls, Toronto, Thousand Islands, Ottawa, Quebec, Boston, and finally back to New York, and stayed for another day before getting on the return plane on time.
Finally sent the person away, Lin Zitan lost his initial anxiety and embarrassment, and was more of an indescribable helplessness. Lin Musen said that he came to investigate, but in fact, he came out to play a circle at public expense, and before leaving, he had to take all the bills, saying that he would be reimbursed when he went back.
Lin Zitan handed the bill neatly to him, and after thinking about it carefully, the meal he ate at Li Manrui's side made him pay for it, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise slightly.
Lin Musen also pretended to stuff money to Lin Zitan before, but this time he really wanted to leave but didn't dare to mention anything generous, Lin Zitan finally sent this father to the customs, and the person seemed to suddenly become relaxed, walked back to the car with the wind, and stepped on the accelerator and went home.
........................
Lin Zitan's second year of college came to an end soon, although his school, the company and Lin Musen had been running here for a while, but fortunately, the credits had already been completed, and there was no delay in schoolwork.
The two Chinese supermarkets he handled by himself were about to enter the acceptance time, which made him a little big recently. Because the United States has certain requirements for shopping malls and supermarkets from fire protection to purchase channels, from humidity to temperature, they have to wait for one by one inspection.
Before Lin Zitan started the summer vacation, he began to devote himself to a new round of intense work. Fortunately, he handed over the management of Hongrong Freight to Joseph before, and now the team he has formed is not bad, they are all energetic young people.
One of the two assistants is a more senior old accountant who helps run various processes and forms, and the other assistant is also a talent majoring in business administration, although it is not a famous university, but the business ability is not bad.
In addition to helping recruit the necessary staff, he can also help him take care of all chores, including accompanying Lin Musen and them to visit the attractions of New York City.
After a series of preparations, Xiao Cheng's network company was officially launched on the third day of the summer vacation, in order to save money, the company's registration and office leasing were all handled by Lin Zitan, after all, he had a ready-made team and resources under him.
The reason why Lin Zitan is willing to invest in Xiao Cheng and their Internet company is mainly because he is very interested in the creativity of these people! Xiao Cheng and their roommates wanted to do Internet services at the beginning, but because of the restrictions of funds and various conditions,
They slowly make big dreams smaller, and NYU students are required to rent their own apartments from their sophomore year, so all students basically have to find their own place to live since the second semester of their freshman year.
However, at that time, Century 21, a well-known real estate website, focused on fixed real estate sales in the United States, and leasing was not very important.
Xiao Cheng and his family plan to create such a website, which specializes in collecting real estate information in the New York metropolitan area, especially near NYU and Columbia, especially real estate rental information.
Lin Zitan didn't know about real estate before, that is, after Li Manrui transferred the two houses to him, he began to take care of the real estate leasing business.
New York State law tends to protect tenants when renting, so many property owners pay special attention to the tenant's credit in this part of renting, but many students do not have much credit accumulation at all, so finding a rental house is a very troublesome matter.
With such a website for students to share information, students can share housing information with each other, and some brothers and sisters can also publish the information if they want to sublet or something before graduation, which solves many problems such as difficulty in finding a house and renting a house.
On this day, Xiao Cheng and another creator made an appointment to meet with Lin Zitan, saying that they wanted to determine the domain name of the website, and they hesitated on several domain names, wanting the only investor who did not know much about network design to make the decision.
The three of them made an appointment at a Starbucks in the middle of Flushing Main Street, and as soon as they met, Xiao Cheng felt that Lin Zitan seemed to be a lot more lean recently.
"Did you go to the gym? Xiao Cheng looked at Lin Zitan, who hadn't seen him for more than half a month, and couldn't help but speak.
"No, maybe do manual work every day!Sit, what do you want to drink?" Lin Zitan smiled self-deprecatingly, said hello to another foreigner creator named Andrew, and took the initiative to buy coffee.
"I'll buy it!" Andrew quickly got up after hearing this, and before Lin Zitan could react, he had already walked quickly to the order counter.
Andrew is also the most educated PHD among the partners, and although his PHD is not a computer science, he is a computer science major in both undergraduate and graduate degrees.
Andrew's family is good, his parents are research-oriented talents, and they pay great attention to their children's education, this time they partnered to start a business, and Andrew's parents also took out $100,000 to sponsor him.
"Let him go, I can't let you pay every time!"
Xiao Cheng stretched out his hand and pressed Lin Zitan's shoulder, every time he asked Lin Zitan to pay for it, he also felt very inauthentic, but unfortunately he didn't have much money, and what he said was not as confident as his profession.
