Chapter Forty-Seven: An Invitation from the Other Side of the Ocean
Just when the floods in the Huai River basin swept in May and the whole country was plunged into a flood relief voice, on the other side of the Atlantic, Chen Lirong received an invitation letter from Bloomsbury Publishing Company, which was written by Newton, the company's president.
"Dear Mr. Zhenyi-Zhang and Ms. Lirong-Chen, on behalf of Bloomsbury Publishing Company, we are honored to invite you to the book launch of HarrypotterandThesorcerer's Stone in London on June 1 this year. Location - Newton Canai"
Looking at the invitation letter in her hand, Chen Lirong suddenly looked a little excited, she was about to graduate in June this year, and she was still thinking about whether she should return to China last year, but she didn't expect to bump into that magical teenager by mistake, and even accepted his employment by mistake and became his plenipotentiary representative, although she didn't know what confidence the teenager was confident that the book would sell well in the English home country, but looking at the invitation in her hand, she knew that the magical teenager was really successful, at least successful.
Returning to the apartment with the invitation letter, Chen Lirong couldn't wait to make a phone call back to China, and asked her cousin to inform her that today was the 22nd, presumably he had enough time to arrange this trip, but she already knew that her little boss had asked her cousin to apply for a visa on her behalf more than a month ago. With grandpa's relationship, it should be approved soon.
Looking at the calm lake on the campus in the distance, a charming smile suddenly bloomed on the girl's somewhat calm face.
"London, are you ready to meet him?"
At this time, the young man who was in the far east was looking at the old man in front of him with a sad face, without saying a word.
"Shinichi, you tell Grandpa, is this really possible? Don't talk nonsense with me, that's a full 300,000 yuan, and the money you gave your uncle, which adds up to a full 550,000 yuan, enough for the family to eat and drink for a lifetime, and you just threw it out? ”
Originally, in the old man's opinion, his little grandson said that opening a supermarket and opening a bookstore would be at most a hundred thousand, but he didn't expect that this store had not yet opened, and it had already cost 500,000 yuan.
"Grandpa, this can really be done, you just believe me this time, if I am not a little sure, I dare to invest so much money? And you don't have to worry about the cost of that house, I tell you, just that house, now 300,000 yuan to buy, in the future, I will not open a store, just sell the house and land, don't want to get each million, do you say that I can lose money in this business? ”
The young man said a little depressedly. It's really a concept that kills people, and my own master is probably poor and afraid, worried that he will lose all his money, but he really works hard for himself, and he can't tell them why he will succeed.
But he didn't know that the more he explained, the more problematic it became, and it was okay not to explain, but this explanation would be terrible.
"What? Ten million? Isn't your kid dizzy by money, no, hurry up and call your dad back, let you take him to return the house, and pay back 10 million, you think the house is made of gold? It's nice to have 100,000, I know you're messing around. ”
"Dad, don't be foolish, he knows the proportions, you see that for such a long time, several of the decisions he made were wrong, which one was not the best, he said that the 10 million will not be sold until later, the price of the house will rise, and not now, besides, the eldest brother-in-law went to the city to contact the merchant, and it is not a delay for you to call him back."
"Okay, Dad, don't worry about this stubble, Zhenyi is not an ordinary child, don't you often praise him, why don't you believe him today."
Second Aunt Ping Ai looked at the young man's distressed look and couldn't help but say a word.
"You--I see you've all forgotten how you got over the years, the smell of bark and wild vegetables, and the chaff steamed buns. Now it's okay to forget about it, I don't care, just don't cry with me when the time comes. ”
As soon as the old man's temper came, everyone fell silent, and at this moment, suddenly an unfamiliar voice sounded in the courtyard.
"Hello, is anyone home?"
Lin Zhengfeng looked at the courtyard in front of him, and was extremely shocked, when did such a family come to the county, looking at the appearance of the courtyard of the house, I am afraid that it will not be successful if there are no thirty or forty thousand, plus the things in this house, I am afraid that it will be more than 100,000, no wonder the eldest brother asked me to pay attention when I came, don't be blind, especially in front of a teenager.
"Huh? You are? ”
I saw Liu Hongyuan looking at the young man in front of him with a puzzled expression, and his family didn't seem to have such an acquaintance or relative, so he asked casually.
"I'm here to deliver something, it's Mr. Chen from the People's Bank who asked me to bring something to Zhang, Zhang Zhenyi, huh!"
After speaking, he took out a white envelope, which was quite thick, but Lin Zhengfeng didn't dare to open it boldly to take a look, and he was a little excited when he thought that he could work in the bank, but he didn't expect his eldest brother to have this way.
"Zhenyi, I came to you, and it was what Mr. Chen gave you."
Liu Hongyuan saw Chen Lijun once, and when he followed his nephew to withdraw money, he was stunned, but he didn't dare to look at it more, that woman was so charming, he couldn't understand how such a woman who seemed to be educated and statused could come to Wannan County to be the head of a branch, and she was so familiar with her nephew.
"What's that?"
As a result, the envelope handed over by the young man in front of him, and he knew what it was when he pinched it in his hand, and immediately showed a hint of ecstasy.
"Oh, thank you, please go back and tell Sister Chen, just say I know, and I will definitely thank the old man when the time comes!"
With an inexplicable sentence, Lin Zhengfeng left the courtyard, Zhang Zhenyi walked into the house with an envelope, opened it in front of everyone, and saw that it was indeed a passport and a visa, as well as an identity certificate, it seems that the old man of the Chen family really has a few brushes, this thing can be done in less than a month, and next time I have to thank him for the old man.
"Shinichi, what do you want a passport for, do you want to go abroad?"
Liu Hongyuan had seen this thing once, and he knew it at first sight, so he immediately asked it in public.
"What? Go abroad? Shinichi, what are you doing abroad, isn't our country very good? ”
When the second aunt heard this, she hurriedly asked.
"Don't guess, I just went to the UK for some things, didn't I write a book last time, you know, there is a company in the UK that has taken a fancy to publish, just on this June 1st Children's Day, let me go to the press conference, it only takes a few days, what are you in a hurry."
The teenager seems a little helpless, it is terrible to have no knowledge, it is even more terrible to have no culture, and it is terrible to have backward concepts.
Looking at the pink note in the envelope, the young man's heart had crossed thousands of miles across the ocean and flew to the country on the other side of the ocean.
