Chapter 141: Freshwater
After the villa was bought, Li Han's plan was to propose and hold a wedding in the next five months, after which he could move in and start a life without shame.
He wasn't very worried about this, after all, his relationship with Wang Man was increasing day by day, as long as he waited for a romantic enough time, everything would fall into place.
On January 5th, Wang Man should take the exam again. Li Han was still the same as before, driving Wang Man to school.
"Come on, don't be pressured." Li Han gently pinched her ears and smiled.
"It's okay, I may not be able to get a high score, but it's still easy for me to pass." Wang Manwan said, and then kissed him on the face, "Then I'll go into the examination room first, you have to be obedient outside, don't flirt." ”
Immediately, Wang Man entered the examination room while throwing a flying kiss at him, while Li Han smiled and watched the beautiful back disappear from view, and then returned to the car to take a nap.
But before he fell asleep, Liu Jiana sent him a few messages: all the cooperation was rejected.
"What the hell?" Li Han sat up in surprise, "Is it really not a shame at all?" ”
He carefully looked at the detailed report sent by Liu Jiana, and the reason why Le Tianwen Entertainment refused was because he didn't want to hand over control of the company, but only wanted money; Rip said that at this stage, they don't need so much research funding, so they won't consider cooperation for the time being.
"Well, it didn't go so well." Li Han shook his head and sighed.
But fortunately, he still has a backup plan, Jinwu Power's own scientific research department has Wu Gang, an elder, to increase some funds for him, so that he can increase research on power storage technology.
As for Company M, there are many choices, and Li Han asks the big data app to recommend another one to himself.
It's just that Li Han hopes to try his best to find an M agency here in Beichang City, on the one hand, to prevent him from going on a business trip, and on the other hand, because it is more convenient to cooperate.
The headquarters of the cat house platform is in Beichang City, and he signed M to serve the cat house platform, and when the time comes, the agency will definitely move its headquarters to Beichang City.
"Alas, let's talk about it tomorrow, it's really ......" Li Han muttered to himself a little irritably.
Since there is no progress in long-term investment for the time being, let's make a short-term investment first, improve the funds in hand, and put the two companies first.
There is no shortage of funds for these two companies now, and it does not mean that there will be no shortage in the future. As long as the offer is high enough, sooner or later they will agree.
Li Han asked the big data app to recommend a short-term investment with an amount of 150 million, and he fell into deep thought when he looked at this project: this project is a futures in the United States, and the content of this futures is actually "water", water resources.
This seems to be incredible in Li Han's eyes, if it is placed in their country, and the necessities of life such as "water" are used as futures, this must not be severely sanctioned by the state and put the bottom of the prison through?
But when he checked it on the Internet, he learned that the U.S. government had chosen to outsource water and electricity to private companies in this regard, and capital was naturally profit-seeking.
That's why the Texas blizzard caused electricity bills to skyrocket, and at one point electricity rose to the point of hundreds of dollars.
It's the same with water.
On this side of California, there is a beautiful landscape where the poor have to drive to buy bottled water for their daily use, and on the other side there are water pipes sprinkled on golf courses that irrigate large lawns.
The reason for this phenomenon is that the water resources are controlled by the private sector.
In fact, California's water shortage has always been severe, and its water resources are very unevenly distributed, with abundant precipitation in the north but uninhabitable mountainous areas, and arable land in the central and southern parts of the country but lack of water resources, and their country also did a similar south-to-north water diversion project to send water from the north to the south.
However, after 1980, the drought in California intensified, the water in the reservoirs was greatly reduced, and the U.S. government at that time chose to open the public areas of water and electricity to the private sector, so the water management in California fell into the hands of capital.
California's big farmers and private water contractors have come together to form a government-sanctioned "California Water Bank" that operates water as if it were money. If you want to transfer water, you have to pay, and the farther you go, the higher the cost.
And these capitals don't want to solve California's water shortage at all, they just want to make a profit from the water they control. So the rich put water resources into cash crops such as almonds, coffee, and pistachios, and used the advantages of water resources to quickly make a fortune, and then won the control of the California Water Bank, so that they could obtain water at a low price, and further expand the advantages of their own cash crops.
Eventually, California was a beautiful landscape: a town where the poor lived in a desert and the rich manhouses were lush with lush greenery.
A similar irony can be seen everywhere in the rich people's fruit trees that have water to drink, but the farmers who water the trees have no water to drink.
It is precisely for this reason that this amazing country has the futures of "water resources".
Judging from the project recommended to him by the big data app, I am afraid that California will suffer from a major drought in the future, so the price of water will rise sharply at that time.
But this incident gave Li Han a hint: in the future, the water will become an important strategic resource.
Of course, he personally can't change this beautiful landscape, and this water futures is just a financial management project, and after he buys it, he only makes a profit, and he will not hand over the goods in kind, so he can only watch the civilians of this state in dire straits.
But he thinks he should invest in this area in the future, invest in technology or resources, and this kind of resource is often the sooner you start, the better, because making money is to see who has more foresight.
Li Han sent the financial content of this time to the company, and asked them to trade in the US options trading market.
After completing this, Li Han got out of the car to get ready to breathe, but at this time, a fashionably dressed girl with long gray hair suddenly came to him.
This girl is still wearing a miniskirt in the winter, with a pair of flesh-through leggings, her figure and appearance are indeed not bad, but the heavy makeup makes her look much more mature than her actual age.
The girl looked at him, then at his car, and then put the milk tea in her hand on Li Han's car with a smile.
“?” Li Han was a little puzzled at the time, looked at the cup of milk tea, and then looked at the young girl.
The other party just smiled at him and raised his eyebrows, and smiled, without meaning to take back the milk tea.
Li Han then took the milk tea, and the girl threw a smug look at the passers-by around and prepared to get into the car.
However, then Li Han threw the milk tea in his hand to the trash can opposite, and then glared at the girl with disgust: "If you don't drink it, throw it into the trash can, what quality?" This is still a college student......"
The girl instantly petrified and smiled dryly at him: "Brother, don't you understand what this means? ”
"What do you mean?" Li Han asked puzzled.
The girl looked a little crying and laughing, but then smiled slightly: "Brother, can you take me for a ride?" ”
Li Han smiled slightly: "I'm sorry, I'm waiting for my boss, I'll pick her up." ”
The girl rolled her eyes when she heard this, and muttered in a low voice: "What, it turned out to be a driver, no wonder it's so ......"
But then her eyes flickered, and she came up and hugged Li Han's arm: "That...... Brother, can you introduce me to your boss for me? Don't worry, I won't treat you badly. I know a couple of girls who are very lacking in love and easy to get started with......"
"Okay, if you want to get to know our young lady, I'll introduce you later." Li Han readily agreed.
The girl rolled her eyes again, didn't say anything more, and turned away: she didn't catch anything, and she lost a cup of milk tea.
After thinking about it, Li Han felt that staying by this car was too eye-catching, so it was better to wait until the exam was over before coming back.
Therefore, Li Han went to the school for a walk, and when the exam was almost over, he returned to the edge of the examination room to pick up Wang Man.
But as soon as he returned, he saw several young people around the car discussing and taking selfies with their mobile phones.
"Good fellow, Rolls-Royce Phantom...... I saw it for the first time. A boy gently touched the car cover, almost dripping his saliva, "I dare say, driving this car around the school, I don't know how many girls can be tricked into getting into the car and shaking." ”
"I still need to get in the car, let me tell you, I can trick a few girls into opening a room with me with this photo." Another boy took a selfie with one hand on the roof of the car and the other hand holding his mobile phone, "This is a good ......"
Li Han crossed his arms and frowned at these young people touching around in his car, leaning on it to take selfies, and didn't say anything, after all, Wang Man hasn't come out yet, so let these young people take a look.
But he didn't say anything on the side, and the young men weren't very happy with his staring.
"What do you see? Is this car yours!? "One of them is dressed fashionably and has no good air.
Li Han was dressed more casually, and there was nothing of value on him, and the other party obviously decided that the car could not be his.
"This plot is a little familiar." Li Han muttered to himself, took out the car key and pressed it, "all of them" twice, and the car door was unlocked.
At that time, the group of young people dispersed in embarrassment, and Li Han rolled his eyes and shook his head and sighed: So this social atmosphere ...... It's really time to get it in order.
But the boys retreated, and the girls were eager to step forward.
Fortunately, at this time, Wang Man also finished the exam and came out of the examination room.
Li Han immediately greeted him with a smile, and said with a smile without waiting for Wang Man to speak: "Leader, I'm driving to pick you up." ”
Wang Man's beautiful eyes widened, and he looked a little confused for the first time.
"Didn't you ask me to drive your car to pick you up?" Li Han winked at her.
Wang Man glanced at the group of young girls surrounding the car, and immediately smiled at him, and whispered, "Drama spirit......"
"What kind of drama spirit, aren't you the leader of my family?" Li Han smiled, and then took her arm and walked to the car, "You have worked hard, get in the car and take a rest." ”
