Chapter 272 The World Has Changed
For some reason, he felt a sense of respect.
If it weren't for his studies, such a person would probably be even more capable than him.
Oh, he's more capable than him anyway; he's a student at Peking University.
And Grandpa actually knew these people.
Therefore, the crisis of distrust can be resolved.
As for why Professor Wu knew these people, it all came down to Xiao Taohua.
That's how people's circles are; it's always the same people, they're all in the same circle.
Professor Wu finally took Li Zhen's hand and said, "I'll have to ask that person you know for help. My grandson is good in every way, but he's too stubborn. Once he decides to do something, he has to do it. He doesn't even think about how he's unfamiliar with the area in the south. If something happens, he won't have anyone to back him up. I trust you guys. It's good to cooperate with him so he won't be so focused on pushing forward without anyone to help him. To be honest, Shihao actually benefits from this."
"No, it's also because Comrade Wu Shih-hao himself is quite outstanding."
"How can you compare to us? Going to university is the best path to success. After graduation, you'll have a secure job."
"Who knows? Things change every day. Maybe one day going to university won't be as profitable as doing business."
"This might happen in the future, but it's unlikely in the next twenty years." Professor Wu, as a professor, isn't really pedantic; if he were, he wouldn't have persisted until today. However, as the saying goes, being able to see things clearly doesn't mean you can feel at ease knowing your loved ones are far from home.
"But given the current situation, Comrade Wu Shih-hao would have made great achievements in the Southern Association in the past."
"I don't care about whether I do anything or not, I only care about his safety."
"Don't worry, the people I know are very reliable. They've never been caught in all those years."
"You mean..." The sentence was left unfinished, but everyone understood. Even Wu Shih-hao couldn't help but look at Li Zhen.
Li Zhen shrugged: "It's all in the past, there's nothing to be ashamed of. He's been dabbling in things on the black market, and now that he's heard there's been some change in the south, he's thinking of going to try his luck. Comrade Wu Shihao will be with him then. He's a very loyal guy, and he has quite a few men under him. Professor Wu, don't worry."
"Thank you so much, Shihao. Come over here and thank Li Zhen, Song Yi, and Comrade Lin Xiaoguang."
Wu Shih-hao bowed and said, "Thank you all."
"Oh, it's nothing. It's all about teamwork. Comrade Wu Shih-hao actually has to do more. We can't all go over here, so we can only rely on him to make this happen."
Professor Wu shook his head: "No, we just have a big advantage in terms of connections."
Li Zhen didn't respond to that. The other person had made it clear, and he wasn't the kind of person to fool people.
The preconditions have been agreed upon by everyone, which will facilitate close cooperation in the future.
“I can contribute 10,000,” Li Zhen said with a smile.
“Mine is also ten thousand,” Song Yi added.
"I only have five thousand here," Lin Xiaoguang said after a moment of silence.
Good heavens, 25,000 in one go!
Even Professor Wu, with his extensive knowledge, was taken aback. These days, having ten thousand people is a big deal, especially since they are just college students.
This, this, this...
Professor Wu took a deep breath.
Li Zhen, however, said in front of him, "This money is all earned by us in the capital."
Professor Wu changed the subject: "Did you earn that in the capital?"
"Yes. We told you before that we have connections, and we can get some things from other places and then sell them at a higher price."
hiss!
Professor Wu and Wu Shih-hao were even more shocked.
How did you make so much money just like that?
Even those who don't care about money can't help but feel a little tempted, let alone Wu Shih-hao, who wanted to go south from the very beginning.
He took a deep breath and looked at Li Zhen with a firm gaze. After all, Li Zhen was the leader among the three: "I only have five thousand on hand. Since we are cooperating, I will only take ten percent."
Professor Wu didn't say anything, but it was obvious that he approved of his son's approach.
"One percent is not enough; you've gotten too little."
"No, you have more funds than me, and you've also introduced me to quite a few people."
Li Zhen has to put in a lot of effort to maintain his network, something Wu Shih-hao understands. And, as he said, even a ten percent is quite a lot.
Twenty-five thousand plus five thousand equals thirty thousand!
You have to understand how huge a sum of 30,000 is.
If we only talk about money making money, there's even more to it.
With such a large amount of capital, earning more seems like no problem at all.
However, the prerequisite is making money.
Wu Shih-hao continued, "If I lose money, I might not have the money to pay you back."
Therefore, this is also a huge risk.
Li Zhen naturally knew why Wu Shihao said that. He waved his hand dismissively and said, "Since we're cooperating, we know that risks and opportunities coexist. Don't worry, we won't come after you if we lose money." If they really lose money, it's just bad luck. In business, it's normal to make and lose money.
Seeing that Li Zhen and the others didn't care, Wu Shih-hao became even less concerned about it.
Li Zhen stopped worrying about the profit sharing.
Soon, a simple contract was produced. The group discussed a few more points and added new content to the contract.
They spent the whole day working on just this one contract. When they finally left Professor Wu's house, each of them had a signed and sealed contract in their hand, which meant they had reached an agreement to cooperate. As for the money, they would give it to Wu Shih-hao when he left.
With such a large sum of money, Li Zhen and his group naturally wouldn't let Wu Shihao go to the south alone, so they also started contacting their own connections.
Everything is proceeding smoothly.
So by the time they found out that Xiao Peichuan had gotten a job at Peking University's library, it was already the next day.
The three people: ...
Good heavens, they feel like the world has changed in just one day!
These professors are really something...
The three of them really had nothing to say to each other.
All we can say is that things have come to this, what else can they do but accept it whether they want to or not.
Moreover, the three of them had to admit that they were no match for Xiao Peichuan.
The more I think about it, the more heartbroken I feel.
It's just a girlfriend, is she as capable as her brothers? And she's got a whole host of illnesses.
That's all they can do to comfort themselves now.
Yes, he's a sick patient. Normal people don't argue with a sick person. Don't let it cause any harm; it'll only hurt your own little peach blossom (a metaphor for a romantic partner).
Thinking about it this way, I felt much calmer.
This is truly the highest level of self-deception.
Well, none of the three admitted that they were deceiving themselves; they were just being considerate of the patient and were magnanimous.
However, Xiao Peichuan was also capable, and Xiao Taohua was a celebrity at the school. In just one day, rumors spread throughout the school.
"You guys don't know, Lin Xiaotao's boyfriend is really handsome, he's just too handsome. He's like the kind of gentleman described in books, gentle and refined, a peerless young master. Seeing him is like seeing a noble young master from ancient times standing in front of me. I even feel ashamed of myself."
"Don't even mention you, me too. Wow, no wonder you're called Little Peach Blossom, you're amazing yourself, and your boyfriend is so good-looking. I don't think anyone in school can compare to you."
