Chapter 154: Lord Tong's New Year's Blessings
The next day, Qi Sheng hugged his sweet-smelling girlfriend and fell asleep naturally.
"Lazy pig, Auntie has called us several times."
When Tan Huan saw that Qi Sheng finally woke up, she pinched Qi Sheng's nose in embarrassment.
She was so tired yesterday that she only wore a thin nightgown.
She fell asleep in Qi Sheng's arms in a daze.
As a result, in the morning, Zhu Min came and knocked on the door.
She couldn't break free from Qi Sheng's arms and could only pretend to be asleep awkwardly.
What made her even more angry was that Qi Sheng hadn't woken up yet.
But she couldn't break free and could only endure it silently.
Looking at my girlfriend with blushing face and charming eyes.
Qi Sheng had just woken up and was already very angry, so naturally he had to put out the anger first.
By the time the two of them had packed up and came out, it was almost noon.
Normally, during the Chinese New Year, everyone has nothing to do.
Even though they were very careful, the noise was still heard by the old couple.
Although the old couple felt a little embarrassed, they thought that Qi Sheng and Tan Huan were making efforts for them to have a grandson.
I'm happy to see this happen, so I turned up the TV volume.
"Mom and Dad, is the meal ready?"
"It's all ready. Go eat now. Mom will take Huanhuan to buy hardware later."
"Uncle and aunt, good afternoon."
Tan Huan's face turned red, and she really wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
It’s all Qi Sheng’s fault. When he heard the volume of the TV in the living room got louder, he didn’t restrain himself at all.
"Buying hardware?"
Qi Sheng's mouth twitched, "This is a bit too early."
"What do you know? The price of gold has been rising over the past two years. If you don't buy it now, it will double in price."
Zhu Min rolled his eyes at Qi Sheng, took Tan Huan's hand, and became kind-looking.
"Hanhuan, don't feel pressured. Auntie has decided on you as her daughter-in-law. We have to buy the hardware sooner or later anyway, so we can save money if we buy it in advance."
"Thank you, Auntie."
Tan Huan smiled sweetly and accepted the kindness of her future mother-in-law.
Hardware isn't that expensive anyway.
She can also take this opportunity to buy a bracelet for her future mother-in-law.
"You two can just go, why drag me along?"
Qi Sheng was not interested in gold jewelry and originally wanted his mother to take Tan Huan to buy them, but Zhu Min insisted on asking her to come along.
"Just go when I tell you to. Why so much nonsense?"
Zhu Min glared at Qi Sheng. She was afraid that the hardware she bought was too expensive and Tan Huan would not accept it.
Let Qi Sheng follow along and help persuade him.
"Just go ahead."
Tan Huan also blinked at Qi Sheng. She had the same thought.
"Well, there's nothing we can do with you two."
Qi Sheng went back to the house, changed his clothes, drove the A8, took Zhu Min and Tan Huan, and headed straight to the department store.
When buying gold, traditional brands such as Chow Tai Fook are more reliable.
As the Chinese New Year approaches, many people buy gold.
Usually this is also the peak period for blind dates and engagements.
If you can agree on the price, it won’t take too long to talk about marriage.
Looking at the combination of Qi Sheng and his wife and mother-in-law.
The shop assistants at Chow Tai Fook were naturally very enthusiastic in introducing the products.
Qi Sheng did not express any opinion throughout the process, allowing Zhu Min and Tan Huan to express themselves freely.
"Pick out the best hardware jewelry in the store for our daughter, regardless of the price."
With the 1 million given by Qi Sheng, Zhu Min's tone was particularly confident.
"Okay, wait a moment."
The female clerk's eyes lit up and she immediately knew that the order was a sure thing.
Soon, the salesgirl came back with a red jewelry box.
Inside was black velvet cloth and several exquisite gold ornaments.
"Auntie, take a look at our wedding collection, including necklaces, bracelets, rings, earrings, and pendants."
"It's perfect for your daughter-in-law and son to wear for future wedding photos and at the wedding."
Zhu Min looked at the exquisite gold ornaments, his eyes flashing with a hint of obsession.
Women have no resistance to gold.
Back then, when she married Qi Zhizhong, she didn't have such conditions.
"How much is the total?"
Zhu Min didn't think much about it. As long as it was within the budget, he would just get it.
"These five items weigh a total of 105 grams. Based on the current gold price plus labor costs, you will need to pay a total of 36,750 yuan."
"Swipe the card."
Zhu Min breathed a sigh of relief. She thought it would be hundreds of thousands, but it turned out to be only tens of thousands.
"Okay, wait a moment."
The female clerk happily went to get the POS machine, thinking that no wonder the daughter-in-law was so beautiful.
If she had such a generous mother-in-law, she would definitely try her best to marry into this family.
"Auntie, I want to give you a gift, too."
While the female salesperson was introducing the items, Tan Huan's eyes were wandering over each piece of gold jewelry.
Finally, I decided on a solid gold bracelet.
"You child, I appreciate your kindness."
Zhu Min smiled and waved his hands, unwilling to let Tan Huan spend money on him.
"Ahem...Mom, since Huanhuan is willing to give it to you, just accept it."
Qi Sheng saw Tan Huan signaling to him, and after some eye contact, he contentedly helped his girlfriend persuade her.
"But I really don't need anything, so let's not waste that money."
Zhu Min also realized that the gift Tan Huan gave him must be worth tens of thousands.
"Look, I transferred another 5 million to you. You and my dad can keep it for pocket money. If someone tries to sell you financial products, don't buy them."
Qi Sheng transferred another 5 million to Zhu Min's account and gave him some instructions casually.
"How many?"
Zhu Min thought he had heard it wrong.
But the text message alert that suddenly appeared on her phone told her clearly.
Qi Sheng actually transferred another 5 million to her.
In a small fourth-tier city like Qi, with 5 million in savings, you can just lie back and live happily ever after.
"You have more than 5 million now, do you still feel sorry for the bracelet worth tens of thousands of yuan given by your daughter-in-law?"
Qi Sheng smiled and put the phone back into his pocket, letting his mother digest her excitement.
"You kid..."
After receiving the 5 million, Zhu Min's mentality did change.
"Auntie, can you accept my gift now?"
Tan Huan took Zhu Min's hand and pointed at the bracelet she had just set her eyes on.
"Please take out this bracelet."
"OK."
The female clerk didn't hear much, but just sighed that the family was quite wealthy.
The mother-in-law bought more than 30,000 yuan worth of hardware jewelry for her daughter-in-law.
The daughter-in-law wants to buy a bracelet worth more than 20,000 yuan for her mother-in-law.
"Auntie, the bracelet you are looking at now weighs 71.55 grams. According to the real-time gold price and labor cost, the selling price is 25,042 yuan."
The female clerk was very enthusiastic in helping Zhu Min try it on.
The bracelet weighs 70 grams, so it’s naturally heavy.
It just so happens that at their age, this kind of bracelet is their favorite.
Seeing that Zhu Min liked it so much, Tan Huan also smiled.
He praised how good the jewelry looked on Zhu Min, and even spoke more eloquently than the female salesperson.
"These things are all included, just swipe the card."
Qi Sheng looked at his girlfriend and mother who were concentrating on studying what kind of clothes to match the bracelet with, and directly took out his CCB private banking card.
"Yes, sir."
It was the first time for the female clerk to see this kind of card, and she looked at the row of 8 card numbers with some curiosity.
"Sir, please sign this."
Qi Sheng signed and took back the bank card.
Zhu Min and Tan Hua were admiring each other's bracelets.
Only then did I realize that Qi Sheng had actually paid the bill secretly.
"Kid, I told you I would buy hardware for Huanhuan."
Zhu Min complained to Qi Sheng in a low voice, feeling a little annoyed that she had been too excited just now.
"We are all family, there is no need to calculate so clearly."
Qi Sheng took his girlfriend and mother away from Chow Tai Fook and bought a lot of clothes for his mother in the department store.
With the presence of Tan Huan, a professional salesgirl, my mother was able to look several years younger.
His mother, who had more than 5 million yuan in savings, refused to let Qi Sheng spend any more money this time.
It was only after leaving the department store that Zhu Min realized that he had spent 50,000 or 60,000 yuan.
"Oh my goodness, we spent more than 100,000 yuan today?"
Zhu Min thought of the hardware, bracelets, and the clothes she had just bought, and couldn't help but feel emotional.
This kind of life was something she had never imagined before.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
But I have to say, it’s really happy.
How can you not be happy if you spend money?
"You'll get used to it slowly. I'll make the money, and you and dad will just enjoy it."
Qi Sheng looked at his mother who had a sentimental expression on her face, and he felt mixed emotions.
In his previous life, even if he wanted to honor his mother, he didn't have the ability to do so.
Fortunately, the dog author gave him a chance to be reborn and arranged for him to be with Master Tong.
…
On New Year’s Eve, every family reunites.
The system, which rarely pops up, gave him a big New Year gift package.
Qi Sheng opened it without thinking, wanting to see what good stuff was inside.
[Ding, congratulations on acquiring 100% equity of Banyan Tree Group (current market value is 400 million US dollars)! ]
[Ding, congratulations on getting the delicious +100% buff (can only be bound to one catering brand)! ]
[Ding, congratulations on getting the Elite Talent Recruitment Card x10! ]
[Ding, congratulations on obtaining the Expert Talent Recruitment Card x2! ]
[Ding, congratulations on getting the Master Talent Recruitment Card x1! ]
Looking at the awarded rewards, Qi Sheng was also very surprised.
The very famous Banyan Tree Hotel in Shanghai is the highest-end hotel brand under the Banyan Tree Group.
Qi Sheng also didn't expect that the system would reward him with a hotel group.
Qi Sheng was originally worried about what would happen after Shengxuan Financial Center withdrew from the TAG Heuer Hotel.
Where can I find a hotel brand with brand influence that can reach the level of a five-star hotel?
As soon as I dozed off, the system sent me a pillow.
Lord Tong, I love you! Banyan Tree Group, currently has a market value of around US$400 million.
It owns 18 hotels in the country.
In terms of strength and brand influence, it ranks among the best among luxury hotel brands.
Moreover, Banyan Tree Group has never entered Chengdu.
This wave of rewards from the system is like delivering food to Qi Sheng’s mouth.
In addition to the Banyan Tree Group, the talent recruitment card also solved Qi Sheng’s urgent needs.
Given the size of Banyan Tree Group, he would feel uneasy if there was no master-level management talent in charge.
The prerequisite for being a hands-off boss is that the employees under you can be loyal to you.
As for the buff effect of deliciousness + 100%, just look at how popular the Lawang business is.
It hardly needs any publicity. Relying on repeat customers and word of mouth, it quickly became the top 1 online celebrity restaurant in Chengdu! With this buff, expert chefs can also be used as master chefs.
Qi Sheng plans to use this buff on Yu Tu.
Compared with Zifei, who is already quite famous in the southwest region.
Yu Tu, who is undergoing a brand reshaping, needs this buff even more.
Only then can you successfully stand out in the fiercely competitive Cantonese cuisine market.
It didn't take long for this wave of rewards to arrive.
Qi Sheng received a cross-border call.
Seeing that the number above is from Singapore, it is obvious that the system's equity transfer procedures have been completed.
As the call was connected, a somewhat uneasy and nervous voice was heard.
"Excuse me, are you Mr. Qi Sheng?"
"It's me, who are you?"
Qi Sheng walked to another empty bedroom and vaguely guessed the other party's identity.
"Hello, Mr. Qi. I am Shi Fulai, CEO of Banyan Tree Group. I am very presumptuous to call you during the Chinese New Year."
"But now everyone in the group is in a panic and hopes to get your latest instructions as soon as possible."
Shi Fulai was not speaking nonsense.
The current Banyan Tree Group, from top to bottom.
There is no one who does not worry about the future.
The lower-level employees are okay.
No matter who becomes the boss, it will not affect the money they earn.
But it’s different for the executives. They used to fight with each other.
Now, all the original shareholders have withdrawn.
The new owner directly and wholly owns Banyan Tree Group.
Today's Banyan Tree Group can be said to belong to Qi Sheng.
Even a CEO like Shi Fulai has to see whether Qi Sheng nods in agreement for him to continue.
"I will arrange for the finance and personnel to take over the situation as soon as possible. All you need to do is maintain stability. I will go there after the New Year."
Qi Sheng also wanted to test Shi Fulai's ability.
If you can't even stabilize the situation, it's better to get out as soon as possible.
"Please rest assured that Banyan Tree Group will restore stability as quickly as possible."
Shi Fulai was able to reach the position of CEO, so he was certainly not a fool, and he immediately issued a military order.
"That's it, see you next year."
Qi Sheng hung up the phone and returned to the master bedroom in a very good mood.
"Honey, what are you so happy about?"
Tan Huan was applying skin care products on her delicate and pretty face. She was a little curious when she saw Qi Sheng walk in humming a song.
"My friend and I have teamed up to acquire a hotel group. After visiting your parents after the New Year, we will go on a family trip."
In his previous life, Qi Sheng also wanted to travel abroad.
Not only do I have no money, I also don’t have a beautiful girlfriend.
Now he has money, a girlfriend, and his own hotel group.
It’s so cool.
"You teamed up with someone to acquire a hotel group?"
Tan Huan was so shocked by Qi Sheng's casual words that she even stopped taking care of her skin.
Listen, what kind of Versailles word is this? Everyone else is staying in a hotel, but my boyfriend actually bought a hotel?
"Well, it's mainly because my friend invested more money and I'm responsible for helping with management."
Tong Ye will contribute 100% of the capital, and Qi Sheng will be responsible for providing a few people.
Is there anything wrong with saying that they are jointly acquiring? "That's also impressive, husband, what is the name of the hotel group you acquired?"
Tan Huan no longer cared about taking care of her skin and pounced on her like a curious baby.
She blinked her beautiful eyelashes, looking extremely curious.
"Banyan Tree Group doesn't have a hotel in Chengdu yet, but it will soon."
"When the time comes, I'll ask them to reserve a presidential suite for us, and we can stay there whenever we want."
Qi Sheng is also considered a super VIP of the Waldorf Astoria and the Boshe Hotel.
But how can it be the same as the treatment I get in my own hotel? "Wow, then I will share this good news with the sisters in the group."
Tan Huan knew without even thinking that the sisters in the group would be furious when they heard the news.
"That's not urgent. If I remember correctly, your relatives are supposed to be here tomorrow. We have to hurry."
Qi Sheng didn't want to run a red light on New Year's Day, so he carried Tan Huan towards the bed.
"You have the best memory!"
Tan Huan blushed with embarrassment and gave Qi Sheng a cold look.
Qi Sheng knew the days when his relatives would come better than he did.
But when she thought that Qi Sheng had no substitute, Tan Huan couldn't help feeling a little guilty.
The following process will naturally be as gentle as possible.
Although she had been to Qi Sheng's house once, her position as the future daughter-in-law was basically secured.
But who knows if there will be other sisters who will please the two elders more.
In order to be able to come to Qi Sheng's house again next year, Tan Huan was willing to give it her all.
As for relatives coming, the worst that can happen is that I'll just have to talk a few more times.
