In the evening, Zhang Ling and Guo Xiang returned to the courtyard together, and she decided to stay here during this time and not go home for dinner, delaying time back and forth on the road.

Of the 300 yuan given by Lin Jing'an's parents, Wang Guixiang took some of it for her to eat, so that she didn't have to run around to affect her studies.

In the next preliminary examination, Guo Xiang, Lin Jing'an and Zhang Ling won the top three in the city, the principal of the second middle school happily closed his mouth, and the director Zhang of the first middle school regretted his intestines.

When I got home from school that day, the doorman of the teacher's village ran over to Guo Xiang and said that someone had called her to find her.

Guo Xiang hurriedly ran to answer the phone, knowing that there was only Gu Zhennan on the phone, and it must have been a call from him.

"Husband......" Guo Xiang picked up the phone, a little out of breath.

"You live far away?" Gu Zhennan frowned.

"No, it's just running fast, aren't you afraid that you'll be in a hurry?" Guo Xiang said with a smile.

The corners of Gu Zhennan's mouth hooked, "I looked for you once last week, and you weren't ......"

"Oh, Lingling was injured and hospitalized last week, and I took care of her in the hospital." Guo Xiang said.

"Hurt? Is it serious? Gu Zhennan asked.

"It's okay, it's all right, something happened, and we all transferred to the second middle school." Guo Xiang said.

"It's okay, you should be safe over there by yourself." Gu Zhennan said uneasily.

"Well, I'm not afraid, few people can beat me, I can run if I can't beat me, and I'm not stupid." Guo Xiang grinned.

"Daughter-in-law, tell you good news......" Gu Zhennan exhaled heavily, as if he was taking a deep breath, which made Guo Xiang nervous.

"The last time about the patent fee, the superior gave instructions, saying that now that the reform and opening up, science and technology are the primary productive forces, and the transformation of scientific and technological achievements into real productive forces, the labor of scientific and technological workers should be fully respected, so all patent fees are issued to ......individuals."

"Ah," Guo Xiang screamed, "Really? Are you sure? ”

Gu Zhennan laughed, and guessed that Guo Xiang would have such a reaction, her performance was even more exaggerated than she imagined.

"More than a million dollars are yours? Are you sure? Guo Xiang shouted.

"It's true!" Gu Zhennan smiled.

"I'm going to faint!" Guo Xiang was excited, "Let me do the math, 1.68 million US dollars is ......, oops, if it is nearly 10 million yuan according to the black market, but it is less than half according to the exchange rate of the Bank of China, it is really not cost-effective!" ”

"But even so, husband, you're a millionaire!" Guo Xiang laughed happily.

"Hmm!" The corners of Gu Zhennan's mouth curled.

"Did you say how to give you the money?" Guo Xiang asked.

"Not yet, I said I would like to hear my personal opinion, what do you say?" Gu Zhennan asked Guo Xiang, he knew that his daughter-in-law was far better than himself in this aspect.

"I suggest not to convert the money into renminbi yet, it's too cost-effective." Guo Xiang said, "And the current personal income tax threshold is only 400 yuan, and you have to pay hundreds of thousands of taxes!" ”

"The best way is to ......" Guo Xiang suddenly thought of a very important thing, next year the Ministry of Petroleum will be restructured, petroleum, offshore oil, petrochemical divided into three, all set up joint-stock enterprises, some employees can become shares.

Gu Zhennan's side belongs to the oil part, this is the PetroChina of the later generations, the market value of the later generations is trillions of yuan, Gu Zhennan puts his money into any factory, not to mention accounting for one-thousandth of the shares, that is, only one-ten-thousandth, and then he is also the boss of the 100 million yuan club, so he must not redeem the money now, it is too much of a loss.

"You go and ask if you can invest in the oilfield as a foreign investment enterprise, so that you can directly invest in the dollar, no need to compete for RMB, and if you can successfully invest, the enterprise will become a Sino-foreign joint venture, the state has preferential policies, the first three years are exempt from income tax, and there are various exemptions and exemptions later!" Guo Xiang said.

Gu Zhennan was very surprised, he didn't expect his daughter-in-law to know so much, and told her that it was really right.

"Okay, I'll ask the leader tomorrow." Gu Zhennan said.

"Husband, you're going to be a big boss, I have to hug your thighs!" Guo Xiang said flatteringly.

Gu Zhennan smiled, "Wait for you to come back and hug it!" ”

The next day, Gu Zhennan called Minister Zhang of the Ministry of Petroleum, because the money had not yet arrived in the factory, it was useless to ask Director Yang, and he did not necessarily know more than Guo Xiang.

The phone call came to Minister Zhang, and Gu Zhennan said that he wanted to invest in shares.

Minister Zhang smiled, "You kid has a keen sense of politics, how do you know that the Ministry of Petroleum is going to be restructured?" ”

Gu Zhennan was stunned, Guo Xiang didn't say anything about the Ministry of Petroleum's restructuring, but just asked if she could invest in shares, did she guess?

"Yes...... I overheard someone else say it when I went to the capital last time to hold a commendation meeting. Gu Zhennan lied.

"They're well-informed!" Minister Zhang smiled, "I have this intention, but it has not yet been decided." But your idea is very good, our country now has this policy, and those who have foreign exchange can invest as overseas Chinese, you do have this qualification, and you can think of using funds to invest in state-owned enterprises, we welcome it! ”

"When there is confirmed news, I will inform you, then the patent fee will not be remitted, and you will be deposited in an account abroad first, and then used as investment funds later!" Minister Zhang said.

"Thank you, Minister!" Gu Zhennan nodded.

The amount of this fund is not small, even if it invests in state-owned businesses, it should be able to account for a large part of the shares, and he is one of the shareholders, so it will be much easier to do anything in the future.

Gu Zhennan was instantly full of ambition, feeling that he could do something big, and once again felt that being able to marry Guo Xiang was the greatest blessing in his life.

"Can I use some of it first? For example, one or two thousand dollars? Gu Zhennan asked.

"Of course, the money is yours now, and you have the power to do it freely." Minister Zhang said with a smile.

With money, Gu Zhennan immediately thought of buying something for his daughter-in-law, when she was in the capital before, she bought clothes for herself and her family, and at that time he said that when he had money, he must give her a better one, and he would do it.

Wait for the next time my daughter-in-law comes back to surprise her.

……

Guo Xiang returned to the courtyard in a happy mood after making the call, but he didn't expect that the patent fee would be given to Gu Zhennan, which was really unexpected.

The little money he has now is nothing in front of him, look at others, it's a big deal, it's like a small fight.

But it's also a little bit of a family life that depends on his own small fights, otherwise, like before, it's really unimaginable, so poor that he can't even eat.

Entering the courtyard, Wan Jiafa was already waiting for him in the courtyard.

"Xiao Guo, how about you come to see my gas stove?"

Guo Xiang looked at it, and it really looked like a gas stove in later generations, there were two kinds, one with a single stove and one with a double stove.

It's hard for him to see that the shell is completely handmade.

"I can't see it, I'll have to try it." Guo Xiang said.
