On Christmas morning, after the old man and the others had eaten the breakfast prepared by Shi Lei, Shi Lei drove into the car and planned to send the elders back to Colin's house. 】⊙，.☆m

"Let's not rush home, let's go to church first. There should be a Mass today. After the old man got in the car, he said a word, and Shi Lei hurriedly and obediently rushed towards the church.

"Oh? Grandpa, are you still religious? Shi Lei asked a little strangely, because in Shi Lei's impression, a traditional scholar like the old man doesn't seem to have such a belief.

"I'm not a devout Christian, but I do occasionally go to places like churches. For me, it's a place for self-reflection and peace of mind, not to communicate with the gods, but to ask the heart. The old man said.

"Moreover, I think it is better for people to have a little faith, save themselves fearlessly, and dare to do anything, especially some people who do their best to look at money and do everything for money.

Therefore, people should still be in awe, not just money and power. Hey......" said the old man behind him sighed, a little hateful.

"Stone, you are also in the food industry, you can't do those things that are quick success." The old man solemnly admonished.

"Grandpa, don't worry. Although I have no religious beliefs, I have always believed in two words, one is sincerity and the other is goodness. The things produced by Stone Ranch rely on quality to win, so I won't do those things that put the cart before the horse for me, I can't pass this level myself, not to mention, my dad will definitely kill me. ”

Shi Lei is also very serious when he talks about this, for children who grew up in such a family, it is completely impossible to do those things that are quick to achieve quick success, which is contrary to his own values.

After listening to Shi Lei's answer, the old man nodded with satisfaction.

After arriving at the church, Shi Lei and Laura walked in quietly and quietly watched the whole ceremony.

In such a place, in such an atmosphere. The soul is indeed susceptible to some baptism, and it feels like it has some understanding, but it is not clear.

After sending the four elders home, Shi Lei took Laura with him and rushed to the manor where Lincoln used to entertain young friends to attend the Christmas party organized by Lincoln.

Lincoln had already invited Shi Lei to be a good Laura before, and just now he happened to meet Lincoln again in the church, and he invited the two again, Shi Lei and Laura went back to change their clothes and changed into the Black Dragon SUV. I brought a little delicately wrapped small gift, and then I came to the door with a familiar way.

"Hi Stone and Laura, you're here. Merry Christmas. Lincoln stepped forward and gave Shi Lei a warm hug.

"Merry Christmas, Lincoln." Shi Lei and Laura said in unison.

Lincoln, who had to continue to greet the guests, walked into the living room together under the guidance of the butler, where several young people had already gathered to chat.

Shi Lei took a look at it, and it was basically the familiar faces he had seen in the church just now. It seems that these guys came directly from the church, unlike Shi Lei and Laura, who had to go back to the ranch first and make some preparations before coming.

"Hi. Stone, Laura. Merry Christmas. Seeing the two of them, Alexander, who seemed to be bored and had been there, was the first to come up and say hello to them.

Alexander actually still can't get rid of his house attributes. For communication with people, especially with strangers, there is still some rustiness and even cowardice. is in front of an acquaintance like Shi Lei. This product will always turn into a big chatter, and it has a fight with Tang Seng.

I don't know if it's out of recent habits, every time this thing sees Shi Lei, he always can't help but say the same thing, that is, urging Shi Lei to quickly increase the size of the dairy herd in the pasture. This time was no exception.

"Huh? That's right, the farm has a lot more cows now, is it now ready to put into production? ”

Alexander's reflex arc is long enough, and Shi Lei has been rambling for a long time, only to remember that Shi Lei has already been grinding him, and he has already expanded the number of dairy cows.

Shi Lei really had the urge to take a photo of himself covering his face at this time, and he was really speechless for Alexander's table.

"Did you just remember?" Laura forced a smile next to her, but she still showed a smile, and her eyes were bent into a crescent moon, but she had to endure not to laugh out loud, it was really hard to endure.

Curry, who didn't know when they had gathered, had already laughed out loud regardless of it, and they were all making fun of Alexander one by one.

Shi Lei glanced to the side, and was not surprised to see that the female companion brought by Robinson had changed again, this time the figure and skin color of this beauty showed that this should be from Brazil, which has always been prolific and beautiful, and it seems that she is still a Brazilian supermodel.

After making fun of Alexander, everyone began to discuss the projects they were working on this year.

Regarding this aspect, Shi Lei has always been assigned to Grimes and Liu Jie to be responsible, that is, to look at various reports every once in a while, but his perverted brain still allows him to remember the development of various industries lightly.

Shi Lei interjected a few words from time to time to participate in their discussions, while recalling the situation of the industries under his hands and doing some combing.

Shi Lei's biggest recent investment project is undoubtedly the winery project with Xu Xiaoxiao and McRae.

Shi Lei has instructed Grimes and Liu Jie to invest 5 million US dollars in this project in the early stage as their research and development funds, and will add them if needed in the future.

Shi Lei is very optimistic about the future of this project, and the situation of Greens and their last visit is also very optimistic. If nothing else, the profitability of this project is just around the corner, that is, in the last two years, it will be able to turn a profit.

When the time comes, a wine brand covering high-end and mid-to-high-end quality will be established, and the benefits will definitely be considerable.

It's just that the process of investing in this is a little longer, and Shi Lei's shares can't be completely determined now, and they still need Grims to continue to follow up on this project.

The seemingly small cheese company that worked with Alexander must have been very happy in terms of revenue. Looking at Alexander's eagerness to urge Shi Lei to expand his scale every day, as well as his attitude of being so committed but always happy, you can know how satisfied he is with the company's operation.

This company is really a cash cow for Shi Lei now, and milk is constantly being shipped in. What comes out is the silver of white flowers, and every stroke is income.

I just came here for a short time, and the smart home company that is a cooperation project to test the waters has been operating very well, and at this time next year, we can recover their investment and have more than enough.

However, with the current good momentum of development, it may be necessary to raise funds to expand the scale next year.

As for the comprehensive project of the reservoir invested in my brother-in-law, during the peak sales season around the Spring Festival this year, the part of the cold-water fish that was listed in advance was sold at a good price.

The boss Jiang Kun is very respectful of the quality of the cold-water fish in the reservoir, so the sales of these fish are basically not worried.

So. After taking into account the situation of various industries, Shi Lei is most concerned about because of his master Kane? Liu had the idea of the high-end fitness club project. Shi Lei also made a hands-off shopkeeper and arranged for Greens to follow up.

"By the way, Robinson, what's going on at the fitness center? When will it be put into use? "At that time, most of the senior talents who were responsible for sorting out this project were provided by Robinson, so I asked him more clearly.

And although this product looks like an unreliable Huahua Second Ancestor, it is actually really proficient in these industrial investments. Otherwise, there would not be the first performance of the family investment bank.

"Oh, that's all ready. Just wait for the end of this holiday season and the beginning of the new year, the fitness club can be put into operation. About the division of shares or something. It's all done, and before the opening, let's sign it again to confirm. ”

Robinson has been following the project for a long time. As for the signature confirmation, it is actually an agreement under the books. For the sake of tax avoidance and business considerations, the names of several people will not appear on the surface of the fitness center.

"Oh? How did you get it done so quickly? Isn't the fitness center renovated and you don't have to wait a few more days to put it into use?" Shi Lei asked with some curiosity.

"The place that Lincoln provided. A large part of it is running as a fitness center, and this part can be used as long as it is properly updated and maintained, while the remaining small part is made of environmentally friendly materials that can be used directly after renovation.

Also, one of the brothers provided a lot of professionals, and the fitness center quickly had enough staff, and after the holiday, all the staff were in place, so it was able to start operating so quickly.

We will notify you to come to the event when it opens, and we have prepared a lot of surprises that day, not only for the audience, but also for you. Robinson explained in detail, and at the end of the day, he gave Shi Lei a meaningful smile.

"Really? I will definitely go when the time comes. Shi Lei got the letter, so he was more relieved.

Shi Lei still has some expectations for the surprise that Robinson said, but looking at Robinson's appearance, this so-called surprise is really easy to make people think crookedly.

"Don't forget to call Master Kane with him, in addition to receiving a salary over there, he also has shares." Robinson reminded.

"I'm sure I won't forget to call the master. It seems that I will have to apply for the first batch of premium members by then, and I will have to continue to learn martial arts with Master Kane in the future. ”

In the future, Master Kane will definitely be put in the fitness center most of the time, and he doesn't know how to deal with that gym yet, so he will have to go to the master's house to give Christmas gifts, and then tell the master a piece and let him prepare in advance.

After silently writing down this matter, Shi Lei continued to talk to Robinson and them about some other topics. Curry: They all started talking about their watches on the day the fitness center opened.

On that day, some interesting activities will be arranged, and some publicity will be done, and as the finale event, it will definitely be able to give everyone a big surprise. (To be continued......)
