It was not until there were only two people in the restaurant box that Nie Zhan said, "You don't have an account in Wansheng Bank, so I asked my eldest brother to transfer the money to my account. Don't worry, I will have someone transfer the money to your account tomorrow."
Lu Jiaxin understood that if the money was not transferred to his account, Nie Jingwen would suggest that she open an account at Wansheng Bank. In fact, this was not impossible, but the problem was that she was not yet an adult, and the guardian's signature was required to open an account. She had a good relationship with Su Heyuan, but she didn't want him to know everything.
"I didn't expect that. Thank you."
Nie Zhan smiled and said, "I didn't lie to you, brother. I really wanted to take you to invest, but you just didn't want to."
Lu Jiaxin joked, "When I have some spare money to invest, I'll consult you first. But you're not allowed to charge me for the consultation."
She felt that Nie Zhan had a more accurate grasp of the international situation than she did, which was closely related to the fact that he grew up abroad and had his own circle. When the time comes, she could ask Nie Zhan more questions, so that she could get some information faster than outsiders, and get first-hand information, so she would be one step ahead of others. As for investment, she knew the general direction of global development, so she would not bother Nie Zhan.
Nie Zhan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I promise I won't charge you a cent, and I'll be there whenever you call me."
When she returned home in the evening, Lu Jiaxin called Zong Jinghua and told him that she was going to Wall Street and asked if he could go with her.
On the third day after receiving the money, Zong Jinghua's daughter underwent a bone marrow transplant. The operation was successful, and the child was out of danger the next day. Now she needs careful care.
Zong Jinghua said that there was no problem on his end: "Miss, I'll book the plane ticket!"
"Can."
Qian Xiaoxiao knew they were going to Wall Street and she couldn't go, so she was a little worried: "Brother Feng and Zong Jinghua are both men, so they can't follow you into the bathroom."
Lu Jiaxin said: "Your passport has not been processed yet, so you can't go with me for the time being. Don't worry, I'll go to Wall Street to take a look. There are rich people there, and the public security is still very good.
Qian Xiaoxiao said: "Sister Xin, I also want to become a Hong Kong citizen, so that I can get a passport quickly."
Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "Before you go abroad next time, make sure to get your passport ready."
Nie Zhan was surprised to know that she was going to Wall Street and asked her what she was going to do there.
Lu Jiaxin had already found a reason. She smiled and said, "Wall Street is the financial center of the world. I want to go there before school starts to see the world and broaden my horizons."
Lu Jiaxin was born in the 1990s. She only knew about the Plaza Accord and Black Friday, and nothing else. This was why she wanted to go to Wall Street. She planned to buy US stocks, but the information in Hong Kong was not so comprehensive.
"I'll go with you."
Lu Jiaxin immediately refused: "I heard from Sister Yadan that you have been very busy recently and your schedule is full. Nie Zhan, I don't want to delay your work because of me."
Nie Zhan smiled and said, "Then I'll come find you when I'm done."
Lu Jiaxin did not object to this.
Two days later, Lu Jiaxin went to Wall Street. Since she was very low-key, not much was known about her. Gu Wenfeng studied English hard after returning from Hawaii and can now communicate with people in a simple way.
Wall Street is a magical place where you can see people of many skin colors, all of them in a hurry.
Lu Jiaxin stayed in Wall Street for a week and then returned to Hong Kong. This time she stayed at the Furama Hotel, which, like the Peninsula Hotel, is a five-star hotel and is very famous.
The next day, Nie Zhan transferred the money from the antique mortgage to her two accounts at HSBC and Standard Chartered Bank. After a day off, Lu Jiaxin went to the two banks and asked a manager to help her buy stocks, including McDonald's, Volvo, Altria, and Disney.
One of the reasons why she bought these four stocks was that when she was chatting with Nie Zhan, Nie Zhan said that the consumer goods and service industries in America have grown rapidly in the past two years. After she went to learn more about it, she found that it was indeed as Nie Zhan said. She was holding it for a short period of time and buying according to the general trend, so she would never lose money.
After finishing her business, Lu Jiaxin went shopping again, which lasted for most of the day. When she returned to the hotel, she felt exhausted and called a female technician to come over for a massage.
Lu Jiaxin likes shopping, firstly to understand the fashion trends, and secondly because shopping makes people happy: "You don't understand the fun of shopping."
Xiao Xiao immediately said that she didn't want to understand. The cost of understanding was too high, and her eyelids twitched every time she saw Lu Jiaxin buying something.
In the evening, Nie Zhan called Lu Jiaxin: "My grandpa is sick. I will stay at home with her today. I will come to see you tomorrow."
Lu Jiaxin said she will return to the mainland tomorrow: "When will I come back? I am not sure yet, maybe half a month, maybe a month."
"Why does it take so long?"
"Go do some work, and then go for a walk around the area."
Visit the Xi'an City Wall and Drum Tower, then climb Mount Huashan and see Laojun Mountain. If possible, visit the Terracotta Warriors.
Nie Zhan asked, "Can I go a few days later with you?"
Lu Jiaxin shook her head and refused. It was fine for the two of them to travel abroad, but forget about returning to the mainland together. The mainland was so conservative, and who knew what would be spread.
Nie Zhan was a little disappointed.
Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "When I come back from the mainland, if you have time, let's go to Venice for a few days."
Venice is known as one of the most romantic tourist destinations in the world, and it is a perfect place to go with Nie Zhan.
Nie Zhan's mood improved immediately: "It's settled then."
Even if you don't have time, you have to squeeze out a week.
When they arrived at the ancient capital, they saw Master Qian as soon as they got out of the train station.
After taking a look, Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "Master Qian, you have changed a lot in a year."
Master Qian said cheerfully: "What big change? Why not just say I gained weight? Now I don't have any worries and I eat and drink well every day. I just gained some weight on my face."
Not only did he gain weight, he also became much whiter. Lu Jiaxin said, "Master Qian, you can't gain any more weight now. If you gain any more weight, you will get all kinds of diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure..."
Master Qian felt overwhelmed after hearing this.
Qian Xiaoxiao: "Old man, did you hear me? Eat less meat or no meat in the future. Then you won't have any problem living to 88."
Master Qian was not happy: "If you can't eat this or drink that, it's meaningless to live to 88. It's better to eat and drink well. I'll accept living to 68."
Qian Xiaoxiao looked at Lu Jiaxin, hoping she could help persuade her.
Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "Master Qian, as people age, their gastrointestinal functions deteriorate, so they should eat light food and avoid fried or spicy food."
"Don't say that living to 68 is enough. If you can close your eyes and die, that would be a blessing. The only thing you're afraid of is having a stroke and lying half-dead in bed, with someone taking care of you, and suffering every day you live."
Master Qian was speechless.
