Wang Dongxue has never seen much of the world, he has only seen such a big mansion on TV before, or when he passed by the door of someone else's house, it was the first time he really stepped in as a guest.

I don't know how much the cigar he smokes is worth, otherwise he might not be willing to light a fire at all, working in a supermarket for more than half a year, and his salary can barely buy such a royal million-dollar cigar, as mentioned before, although they have not seen each other for more than two years, there is a huge gap between them, mainly referring to the material aspect.

Being treated as a guest by Ye Dongqing made Wang Dongxue feel uneasy, he seemed to be the only one in the whole room who was out of place, this was an inferiority complex in his own mind, in fact, Ye Dongqing welcomed his arrival, at least more popular than Richard Rockefeller.

The past gradually came back to my mind, and I vaguely remembered that I would occasionally lend my homework to Wang Dongxue to see, and I was caught by the teacher, which was already a relatively distant memory, sitting and chatting at the moment, there was not much topic, just asking how Chinatown was doing, what the original classmates were doing now, etc.

"I just thought about it, there is a job for you to do, on the land on the other side of the island, I don't know if you see people working on it, I plan to build a botanical garden there, you can help me manage it. ”

Ye Dongqing cut to the point, feeling that his tone was a little formal, he coughed dryly and added: "Accumulate some work experience first, and I will help you arrange a better position in the future, in terms of salary...... At the beginning, you will be given 5,000 US dollars, and then you will be promoted after the botanical garden is completed, and all you need to be responsible for is to help plant plants at that time, and there are some other aspects of management, and I will say hello to the project director at that time, and if you are interested, you can report directly. ”

It is about equivalent to an annual salary of 60,000 US dollars, not counting other benefits, such as medical insurance, bonuses, etc., all of which are definitely higher.

At the end of 2004, with this kind of income, he was able to reach the threshold of promotion to the middle class, Ye Dongqing was too lazy to care about these little things, and someone helped him to build a botanical garden, but he also knew that the annual income of 60,000 US dollars was not bad.

With an income of almost $2,000 higher than when he was a security guard, Wang Dongxue was already very pleasantly surprised, he only had a high school education, but any slightly better job would turn him away.

There is a saying called Shengmien, fighting Mi hatred, saving the emergency but not the poor, the philosophy of life summed up by the Chinese ancestors, there is a great truth in just over ten words.

Ye Dongqing is willing to give him a chance, if he works hard and his ability improves, he won't mind giving this old classmate a higher-paying job in the future, but he won't give money directly, so that the other party can develop a sense of dependence for nothing.

Speaking of which, there are not five hundred but two hundred people who have been classmates with him, and that's only in middle school, and even more after college.

Just as rich people don't just pay for strangers' medical bills and help them get out of poverty, because once they do, more people who get the news will come in like mosquitoes, and there are so many people in the world who are short of money, even people of Bill Gates's worth, can only say that they do their best.

Philanthropists are not so easy to be, and even if one person doesn't get the help they want, and throws dirt at all costs, it's enough to ruin the reputation of someone who has done a lot of charity.

Saying thank you, this made Ye Dongqing quite satisfied with the attitude of his old classmates, took out his mobile phone and made a call out, told the project leader about his recruitment, and told the other party the name "Bruce Wang", and then looked up and smiled: "Okay, when you have time, go through the entry procedures, the management team of the botanical garden has just been set up, if you have a good relationship with your boss, maybe you can get a better position, and you will definitely not be too busy in the future." ”

Wang Dongxue didn't know what to say except for thanking, so she held back until her face turned red, and she couldn't hide her joy while being excited.

He was a little embarrassed in the atmosphere, so he simply called the housekeeper directly and asked the housekeeper to take him to go through the entry procedures first, until the old classmate left, Richard lazily asked: "The people you knew when you didn't start doing business?"

"Yes, I can see my shadow in him at that time, at first I thought that if I could make 5,000 dollars a month and be able to support myself, it would be a very happy thing, but now the fun of making money is suddenly much less, and it seems that I care more about success itself, solve troubles, and then push the company to expand the market and achieve my ideal goal.

I gradually discovered that maybe this is the reason why Mr. Warren Buffett and others still insist on working every day even after they are old, and life will become boring and boring without work. ”

Ye Dongqing was telling the truth, and Richard was thoughtful after listening to it.

However, salted fish is salted fish, Richard did not have the idea of struggling and surpassing the achievements of his family ancestors, but instead said: "The realm is too high, I guess I will never have the opportunity to appreciate it in my life." If my grandfather is willing to leave me a large inheritance, I will exchange cash to buy a private jet, buy a super luxury yacht, and then move out of the estate to live on my own, buy the island next door and be your neighbor, and buy the rest of the money into stocks and national bonds, and eat dividends comfortably every day. ”

“...... Your grandfather would have been very happy when he heard that, and he gave it all his money, and the reason why the Rockefeller family didn't have any more great people was probably because you guys were so good at enjoying it. ”

Sure enough, they are all friends of wine and meat, only Edward Johnson Jr. is slightly more reliable, and even dares to pit Ye Holly for the sake of profit.

For example, when Apple was in company, Ye Dongqing always felt that it was little Edward's instruction to rob and buy a few percent of Apple shares halfway.

The approach is very cheap, but at least it can show that he is still self-motivated, and knows that he has to make money by himself, rather than waiting for the inheritance one day in the future, Ye Dongqing and Little Edward are not all the way, but they are not all the way with Richard, they can barely get along with each other while reserving differences, and they can't care too much about anything.

Able to accept this level of joke, Richard shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said: "That's none of my business, when I die, I don't care about the flood, I like this sentence of the French Emperor Louis XV."

Now I have saved some money, which is enough to make me comfortable for the rest of my life, provided that you don't make a mistake with your investment advice, my financial advisor has already asked me to sell it, so I fired that financial advisor, and I would rather trust your advice than him......"
