Chapter 203: Start to Flirt
Hao Wang was just thinking about how to change the topic to the flower girl, but Yu Yaoyang was too powerful. Whenever Hao Wang opened his mouth to talk about this, Yu Yaoyang would interrupt the topic by raising his glass to toast as if he had predicted the future.
Yu Yaoyang worked hard for half the meal and finally tried to make up for the loss, but Xiaoyue's words made all his efforts go to waste.
"This flower was sold to me by my friend. Isn't it beautiful? She is a very honest person." Hao Wang said happily.
Rutang held his forehead with his hand, Xiaoyue really brought up things that were not relevant to the topic.
Yu Yaoyang felt a little embarrassed as he touched the wine glass. The conversation had already come to this point, and if he interrupted again, it would seem a bit deliberate.
The atmosphere was frozen. Although Xiaoyue didn't know what she said wrong, she realized that this topic seemed inappropriate and subconsciously looked at Guining.
Gui Ning often tutors Xiao Yue in her homework, and the two of them have developed a tacit understanding without realizing it. When she received Xiao Yue's signal for help, Gui Ning, despite her social anxiety, spoke up to help: "This is Clivia. I saw on the news that L City in J Province is selecting a city flower, and it is said that Clivia has the highest votes. It must be a candidate for the city flower, so many people must like it."
"What other flowers were selected?" Yu Yaoyang took over the topic and praised Gui Ning in his heart.
He is worthy of being the child his wife has chosen, he is really smart.
Seeing that no one came to pick up the flower girl, Hao Wang felt a little depressed and grabbed the wine glass and took a sip.
Rutang was attracted by Guining's casual words of relief, and a memory about orchids emerged in his mind.
When she saw the orchid, she didn't remember it until Gui Ning said "city flower" and then Rutang remembered it.
In the previous life, Clivia really became the city flower of L City, and the price of Clivia was also hyped up.
The local government proposed the "windowsill economy", calling on every household to grow 2 or 3 pots of Clivia. The intention was good, but the situation gradually got out of control.
The price of orchids has been rising all the way, from a few cents to some rare varieties that can even be sold for thousands or even tens of thousands, and are called "green gold bars."
The price rose too quickly, and the government finally stepped in to control it, limiting the high prices of orchids. The price of orchids plummeted 100 times. This period of history is known as the "Clivia Incident", and many people lost their fortunes because of orchid speculation.
In her previous life, she and Yu Yaoyang started doing business later than they do now. At this time in her previous life, he was still tinkering with agricultural products and did not have much capital, so it was naturally impossible for him to participate in the high-cost speculation of orchids.
But now, things are different.
Rutang thought of the 100,000 yuan that his family would soon receive, and then thought of the orchid boom that was about to arrive, and his breathing suddenly became rapid.
If orchids can fall a hundredfold, that means they will rise a hundredfold in the next year.
Rutang's breathing became increasingly rapid, and he began to calculate simple math problems in his mind.
Her family’s original capital is 200,000 yuan, and a hundred times that is... 20 million yuan!
No, that's not right, you can't calculate it like that.
Rutang took a deep breath to calm himself down.
This was the 1980s, and 200,000 yuan was a considerable sum of money. If she invested the entire amount in orchids and made 20 million yuan in one go, it would definitely attract the attention of relevant departments. Being arrested herself would be a small matter, but changing the course of history would be a big matter.
The safe way is to take out a portion of the funds and invest in batches. Don't make too much noise. It's best for the whole family to do it separately so that people don't see that they are a family. Stop after making a million or eighty thousand.
Rutang quickly found his reason.
After all, she had been a wealthy woman in her previous life. She had followed Yu Yaoyang through the ups and downs of the business world for decades and understood the laws governing the operation of capital.
When doing business domestically, you must have a good grasp of the policies.
Many businessmen can punch out and show their edge.
But the real skill is to be able to pull back your fist once you have thrown it out, to know when to stop, and to prefer to earn less to ensure that you are not targeted by your superiors.
But Rutang was still a little excited. Her "restraint" also brought her millions of profits!
What did millions in profit mean in the 1980s?
You can buy more than 20 courtyard houses within the second ring road of Beijing! If you go to Pudong to buy a house, you can buy more than 20 houses!
How could a reborn person not know how outrageous the housing prices in these two places will be in the future?
As long as this deal can be done, the Rutang family will have completed the initial capital accumulation in advance. With these assets, she and Yu Yaoyang will be more confident in working hard in the business world!
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Gui Ning saw that Rutang's expression changed several times in a short period of time and her breathing became heavier, and she couldn't help feeling worried.
Before Rutang could answer, Hao Wang, under the influence of alcohol, placed the wine glass heavily on the table.
Bang!
The wine glass made a loud noise, and Hao Wang stood up. He said under the influence of alcohol, "Yangzi, Rutang, are you two going to do big business with your uncle? Give me a good time!"
He really wanted to make Yu Yaoyang and his wife rich, and the couple's ambiguous attitude made Hao Wang anxious.
Seeing that he couldn't avoid it anymore, Yu Yaoyang wanted to stand up and answer directly, but a small white hand pressed on his wrist.
Rutang stood up before him.
"Uncle, the smuggling you mentioned is not a good business. It's too risky. I have a better business that can make more money than smuggling. Most importantly, it's legal."
"What?" Hao Wang didn't understand. The alcohol made his reaction much slower, and it took him a few seconds to react.
"What business is more profitable than this? And legal?" Hao Wang didn't believe it. "Rutang, even if you don't want me to go, there's no need to lie to me, right?"
"I swear on my father that if I tell a lie, Chen Fu will fall into the stinky ditch and drink his fill!" Ru Tang raised three fingers and swore.
Hao Wang sat back in his chair in despair. After a long while, he said, "If you don't want me to leave, just say so. Why swear on him?"
The atmosphere was originally quite tense, but upon hearing this, everyone burst into laughter.
Chen Fu has now become a tool used by the whole family to adjust the atmosphere. After his family became rich through business, the shadow cast by Chen Fu on the family became increasingly insignificant.
Rutang also smiled. Seeing that the atmosphere had eased and her uncle's emotions were no longer tense, he started to talk about business.
"Uncle, I have a new project in my hands. It is definitely much better than your smuggling. If you trust me, just follow us and do it."
"Of course I believe in you. Without you, I wouldn't be able to make any money. But what project are you talking about?" Hao Wang was interested.
He still believed what Rutang said.
Rutang had told him the same thing when the couple was doing clothing business. No one was optimistic at the time, especially his conservative mother, who refused to let him go.
I think Rutang and his wife are young, and if they listen to her and go to other places, even if what she said is not true, the travel expenses will be a considerable amount.
Hao Wang pretended to be polite to his mother, but secretly packed his luggage and went straight to the station, which led to the current situation.
Now, history repeats itself. Rutang extends an olive branch to him again, and his uncle makes the same choice as before, and completely changes his destiny.
