Chapter 265: Making Money as Fun
The next morning, Li Hualong and Cheng Yueru were woken up by a knock on the door.
Cheng Zhenglong knocked on the door and shouted, "Dad, Mom, I'm going to school." ”
After Li Hualong and Cheng Yueru woke up, they looked at each other a few times, the two got up, sat on the bed, Cheng Yueru looked at the door and shouted: "You go, be careful on the road." ”
"I see, goodbye!"
After a while, Li Hualong muttered, "I should let him take a few days off, I want to have a good chat with him." ”
Cheng Yueru smiled and said: "It's not that you won't be able to see each other in the future, what's the hurry?!" ”
"Ugh!" Li Hualong replied and asked, "How did he go to school?" ”
"He'll ask the vineyard staff to help drive him to San Francisco, and when he gets to downtown San Francisco, he can take the bus to school."
"Isn't Napa a county, and there is no bus station in the county?"
"Yes, but it's not very convenient."
Li Hualong nodded, stared at Cheng Yueru for a moment, and asked with a smile: "Yueru, do you say you are stupid?" ”
"I'm stupid!" Cheng Yueru pursed her lips and smiled, she knew what Li Hualong meant when she said this, pointing out that she should not hide the birth of a child, "Then you say, do you owe me?" ”
"I owe it." Li Hualong held Cheng Yueru in his arms.
The two were silent for a while, and Li Hualong asked in a low voice, "How do you want me to compensate you?" ”
"I want you to stay with me every day in the future, hehe, I know it's impossible."
Li Hualong let go of the hug, looked at Cheng Yueru's face with a smile, and said: "You should go to Hong Kong with me, although I have other wives and concubines, I promise that I will spend more time with you than them in the future." ”
"Forget it, I don't want to be hated." Cheng Yueru smiled, "In a few years, Zhenglong will marry a wife and have children, I can help him take care of the children, and I won't feel empty and lonely." ”
"Do you feel empty and lonely all these years?"
"It's fine." Cheng Yueru said lightly. "Hungry?"
"I'm a little hungry."
"Then let's get up and wash up, and after breakfast, I'll show you around."
More than half an hour later, Li Hualong and Cheng Yueru had breakfast. Sit in the gazebo next to the Emerald Lake and chat.
After chatting for a while, Li Hualong asked confidently, "Can you change the name of Zhenglong?" ”
Cheng Yueru was slightly stunned, and asked with a smile: "Do you want him to have your surname?" ”
"That's what I think, and if you don't agree, I won't force it."
"I'm not married. If he wants, he can take your last name. ”
"If he has my surname, then the name should also be changed, and his name should be changed to Li Shenglong, what do you think of this name?"
"It's okay." Cheng Yueru smiled, "I know that your son's name has 'Sheng' in it." ”
"Not only my son, but also my eldest brother and fourth brother's son have the word 'sheng' in their names."
"There was a question before, do you have a second brother at home?"
"That's right. My second brother is a member of the Communist Party of China, and he joined the Communist Party of China before the victory of the Anti-Japanese War. Before the liberation of the magic capital by the Chinese Communist Party, my father brought his family to Hong Kong, and my family and my second brother have not been in contact with each other for all these years. ”
"That's right...... Do you know if he's still alive? Cheng Yueru asked.
"You want to help me find my second brother?" Li Hualong asked rhetorically, without waiting for the other party's answer, and continued, "I know who your father is. ”
Cheng Yueru smiled faintly and said, "You don't need me to help you, you are a big capitalist." If you want to ask the CCP government for help, it is not difficult to find your second brother's family and take them to live in Hong Kong. ”
"Maybe." Li Hualong paused. He continued, "Now that the CCP government has undergone some changes, I feel that the land of China is about to undergo great changes, and in a few months, I will entrust the CCP government to find my second brother's family, as for whether to borrow my second brother's family to live in Hong Kong." It's up to them to think about it. ”
"You're very concerned about politics, aren't you?" Cheng Yueru asked with a smile.
"A successful businessman is more or less sure to pay attention to politics." Li Hualong said with a smile.
"In 1967, many wealthy businessmen in Hong Kong sold their Hong Kong businesses at a land price and emigrated overseas, and you bought a large amount, what did you think at that time?" Cheng Yueru asked curiously.
"Looks like you're paying attention to me." Li Hualong smiled and replied, "I don't think it is very likely that the CCP government at that time will recover Hong Kong, although there is a risk, but seeing the stock price plummeting at that time, housing prices plummeting, and land prices plummeting, I couldn't help but take action." ”
"Did the oil crisis have a big impact on you a few years ago?"
"It's big." Li Hualong nodded, he was not wrong when he said this, the impact of the first global oil crisis on him was quite large, he invested in oil futures, as well as invested in gold, and obtained rich returns, most people's assets shrank, and he greatly improved.
"Are you content with what you have?" Cheng Yueru asked with a smile.
"There are places of contentment and there are places of discontentment." Li Hualong smiled, saw Cheng Yueru with a puzzled expression on her face, and explained, "Unlike many businessmen, my working hours are not very long, and I don't want to do everything myself......"
"There are so many companies under your umbrella, and there are only a few tens of thousands of people working for you, and it is impossible for you to do it yourself." Cheng Yueru interjected.
"That's right." Li Hualong smiled and nodded, "Although I often take the initiative to think of some ways to make money now, this can't be said that I am not satisfied, people live in this world, and they always have to find some fun." ”
"You make money for fun?" Cheng Yueru laughed.
"Isn't it interesting to make money legally?" Li Hualong asked rhetorically, smiled, and continued to ask, "You regard experience vineyards and wineries as your own business, right?" ”
"Sort of." Cheng Yueru sighed lightly, "If I didn't have this career, I would feel that life is very boring, and I may not be able to eat well." ”
After chatting a few words, Cheng Yueru smiled and said: "You said that your two eldest sons, one is studying at Cambridge University and the other is studying at Harvard University, it seems that your children are well educated." ”
"The children are very smart, very sensible, and very studious, plus they study in good schools, and often ask famous teachers to be tutors, and it is normal for them to have good grades. Zhenglong ...... No, I'll call him Sheng Long in the future, hehe, he said that he was admitted to Stanford University last year, and he was sixteen years old last year, so it's not easy to be admitted to college at such a young age. ”
Li Hualong smiled and took Cheng Yueru's hand, kissed her on the back of her hand, and continued: "Thank you for your hard work. ”
"Positive...... Sheng Long, a child, has been sensible since he was a child, and rarely let me worry about it, when he was very young, he knew that he loved me and would take care of me. Cheng Yueru smiled proudly, "The girl who marries Sheng Long in the future will definitely become a happy woman." ”
"I haven't been with Sheng Long for a long time, and I can feel his maturity and stability." Li Hualong was pleased, "He will definitely be able to achieve a great career in the future." ”
"People who become big things are not necessarily happy." Cheng Yueru said in a low voice.
"I know." Li Hualong smiled, "I won't force Sheng Long to live any kind of life, as long as he feels that he is happy, I will be very happy." ”
"If Sheng Long listened to you and asked for your opinion, what kind of work would you suggest he would do in the future?" Cheng Yueru asked with a smile.
"I wouldn't suggest that he go to Hong Kong to take over my business, and I've invested in a number of companies in the United States, including one that makes computers. Sheng Long is majoring in computer science, and after he graduates from university, he can enter this company to work, and if he wants to start his own business, I will also support him. I believe that for a long time to come, the computer industry in the United States will make great achievements, and there may be many college graduates who will become super-rich after a good idea to create a business and become super......-rich after years of development." )
