After chatting for a while, Chu Xinghua decided to treat Shen Dong to dinner out of his own pocket.
Shen Dong said, "I'll skip the dinner. I need to go back to the hotel to be with my wife."
Chu Xinghua's eyes widened, and he said, "Your sister-in-law is here. Why didn't you say so earlier? Come on, let's go to the hotel to pick her up."
Shen Dong said, "It's not her, it's them."
Chu Xinghua was taken aback and asked, puzzled, "What do you mean?"
Shen Dong held up four fingers and said, "You have four younger siblings."
Chu Xinghua was immediately dumbfounded and said, "They all came with you?"
Shen Dong nodded and said, "They're all here."
Chu Xinghua said, "If I invite them to dinner, will they start arguing at the table?"
Shen Dong was both amused and exasperated, saying, "They've been living with me for a long time, how could they possibly be arguing?"
Chu Xinghua said with admiration, "I am truly impressed by your ability to get four wives to live peacefully under the same roof."
Shen Dong said smugly, "There's nothing I can do about it, I'm just too good in that area. None of my four wives can handle me."
Chu Xinghua was speechless upon hearing this.
At noon, Chu Xinghua hosted a banquet for Shen Dong and Li Xinxin and their three daughters at an upscale restaurant.
Seeing the four women's stunning beauty, refined demeanor, and harmonious relationship, Chu Xinghua once again gave Shen Dong a thumbs up in her heart.
There's really no one else who's gone this far.
Shen Dong spent three days in Shenzhen, inspecting the construction progress of the beverage factory and the bicycle factory.
Ahua and Jimmy rushed back from out of town the next day and reported to Shen Dong on the development of the clothing company and the instant noodle company during this period.
Tengfei Clothing Company now has more than 100 designers, and has completely broken away from the past practice of copying popular clothes on the market, and has begun to create its own trends.
According to Shen Dong's development strategy, Tengfei has already occupied 25% of the low-to-mid-range apparel market share, while its share in the high-end apparel market is smaller, less than 5%, but its development prospects are broad.
Last month, Tengfei Clothing Company's profits reached a staggering 88 million Xia Yuan, just a step away from 100 million Xia Yuan, giving it the imposing presence of the number one clothing company in Xia Country.
Ahua's convenience store is even more impressive.
After the new factory went into operation, Tengfei Instant Noodles' market share once exceeded 40%.
Instant noodles with various flavors are widely praised by consumers.
In particular, boxed instant noodles have become the first choice for people traveling or on business trips.
Last month, Tengfei Instant Noodles' profits exceeded 100 million yuan for the first time, reaching 130 million yuan.
It can be said that the instant noodle market in inland China has reached a point where it has no competitors.
Upon meeting Shen Dong, Ahua and Jimmy both made the same request: to continue building the factory to meet market demand.
Without saying a word, Shen Dong agreed immediately.
Furthermore, he demanded that the two increase their advertising spending, ideally by jointly sponsoring this year's Spring Festival Gala.
Li Xinxin and her three friends knew that Shen Dong was doing business in the mainland, but they never expected that his monthly profit could reach more than 200 million yuan.
Haitang sighed, "Our husband is really good at making money."
Qiu Ti said, "This is just the beginning. At the current rate of development, in another two years, I estimate that the monthly revenue of these two companies will exceed 300 million yuan, which translates to an annual profit of about 1.4 billion US dollars. They are veritable treasure troves."
Li Xinxin laughed and said, "I used to think that 200 million yuan in donations every year was a bit too much. Now it seems that 200 million yuan is obviously a bit too little."
Ou Yongen said, "Then let him add another two hundred million, so he can accumulate more good fortune."
Upon hearing this, Li Xinxin and Qiu Ti both fell silent, their faces gloomy.
Haitang noticed that the two of them looked a little off and asked, "What's wrong?"
Li Xinxin said with a wry smile, "Qiu Ti and I have always wanted to have a child for Dong Ge, but it has been more than two years and we still haven't been able to fulfill our wish."
Haitang frowned slightly and said, "Could it be that there's something wrong with his health?"
Qiu Ti said, "A year ago, Brother Dong went to the hospital for a checkup. The results showed that his body was incredibly strong and his fertility was perfectly fine. Sister Xin Xin and I also had checkups, and the results were the same."
Haitang said, "Perhaps our time hasn't come yet."
...
The next day at noon, Shen Dong and his group appeared at Yandu Airport.
Chen Yongren had arrived in Yandu long ago and made arrangements in advance, renting twelve luxury cars alone.
Shen Dong's car is a Rolls-Royce worth tens of millions of yuan, which is also the best reception vehicle of Yandu Hotel, with a daily rental fee of up to three thousand yuan.
Of course, this amount of money is nothing to Shen Dong, whose net worth is in the tens of billions of US dollars.
In addition to Chen Yongren's motorcade, people from the Education Department also arrived.
Leading the group was Chu Xinghua's second uncle, Chu Jianqiang, the deputy director of the Education Department of Xia Guo.
Chu Jianqiang is fifty years old this year. He has a refined appearance and a peaceful look in his eyes.
He is one of the pillars of the Chu family, and has been serving as the deputy director of the Education Department for three years.
Reports indicate that Chu Jianqiang will make further progress before the end of the year.
"Hello, Mr. Shen."
Chu Jianqiang smiled and extended his hand to Shen Dong.
Shen Dong held Chu Jianqiang's hand and smiled, "Uncle Chu, you are Hua Ge's elder, just call me A Dong."
Chu Jianqiang was taken aback, seemingly not expecting Shen Dong to say that.
Chu Jianqiang already knew about Shen Dong's situation from Chu Xinghua.
In Chu Jianqiang's mind, a super-rich man who possesses billions of US dollars in assets before the age of thirty must be incredibly arrogant.
Chu Jianqiang was even prepared for Shen Dong to disdainfully shake his hand.
Unexpectedly, Shen Dong was not only not arrogant, but also very low-key and showed great respect to Chu Jianqiang, which made Chu Jianqiang feel much more favorably toward Shen Dong.
Chu Jianqiang patted Shen Dong's hand and chuckled, "Alright, then I'll take the liberty of calling you A-Dong. We've already booked a table at the hotel, how about we go over and have a meal first?"
Shen Dong said, "When in Rome, do as the host says. I will follow your arrangements."
Soon, everyone got into their respective cars.
The four women were riding in that Rolls-Royce.
Shen Dong was riding in Chu Jianqiang's government vehicle.
Besides the driver, only Chu Jianqiang and Shen Dong were in the car.
Chu Jianqiang asked, "Adong, I heard from Xinghua that you are going to donate 200 million yuan every year to build Hope Primary Schools. Is that true?"
Shen Dong nodded and said, "Yes."
