Of these three friends, one was married, and the other two also had girlfriends. Knowing that he was going to bring Lu Jiaxin over, the three also brought their wives and girlfriends.
Nie Zhan introduced three people to Lu Jiaxin. One was Hu Zhifeng, the eldest son of Nanfeng Group. Nanfeng Group had businesses in real estate, shipping and finance, and he was now helping his father run the business. One was Fu Ye, whose family also owned a bank and was involved in many industries like the Nie family. He did not join the family company but started a trading business, which now has a market value of more than 300 million. The last one was Tao Yong, a member of the Huang family, a super-rich family in Nanyang, and he opened an investment company in Gangcheng.
Lu Jiaxin greeted them one by one.
Hu Zhifeng, Fu Ye and Tao Yong also introduced their wives/girlfriends to them. The three of them knew Nie Zhan's personality and knew that he and Lu Jiaxin were going to get married, so they were very enthusiastic about her.
The other halves of these three people are all from wealthy families. Hu Zhifeng's wife Zong Shimeng's family is in the construction business; Fu Ye's fiancée Yu Meitong's family is in the jewelry and cosmetics business; Tao Yong's girlfriend Shi Xinyu is also from Nanyang, and her family is in the rubber and real estate business.
Zong Shimeng knew that Lu Jiaxin was from the mainland, but since she now owned two companies, no one would look down on her.
Tao Yong is a golf enthusiast. After everyone got to know each other, he smiled and said, "Ah Zhan, I haven't played with you for a long time. Let's play a round."
Of course Nie Zhan had no problem with that. He looked at the other two people, and they also said they had no problem with that.
Hu Zhifeng smiled and said, "How much shall we set for the prize today?"
The so-called lottery is actually a bet. They just rely on their luck and don't bet a lot. Of course, their bets are not much, but for ordinary people, it is still a large amount.
Yu Meitong was not interested in the games between men. She enthusiastically pulled Lu Jiaxin and said, "Miss Lu, Green Forest is selling so well. How did you come up with such a good idea?"
Shi Xinyu didn't know about this, and asked in surprise, "Miss Lu, is the green forest that has been so popular in Hong Kong recently yours?"
Lu Jiaxin nodded and said, "Yes, Green Forest is my company."
After saying this, she responded to Yu Meitong's question: "I traveled to Europe last year and saw a lot of fashionable clothes there. But after I bought the clothes, they didn't necessarily have matching pants and shoes in the store. After visiting many times, I came up with an idea, which is to sell all the clothes of these brands in the store, which will definitely be popular with everyone."
Shi Xinyu was surprised and asked, "You just did it after you had this idea?"
Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "I had this idea last year, but I didn't have the money at that time. Fortunately, I made money in the foreign exchange market last year, so I started this project."
Shi Xinyu said with some envy: "Ms. Lu, Mr. Nie is so good to you. There is so much profit in foreign exchange, but Tao Yong won't let me do it, saying that the risk is too high."
The latter part of the words had a tone of complaint.
Lu Jiaxin said Tao Yong was right: "Foreign exchange speculation is indeed very risky. If you don't know how to blindly follow the trend, you can easily lose all your money. But you can give him the money and let him buy for you. I bought some first, and Nie Zhan also helped me buy some."
She bought the first two times by herself, and Nie Zhan helped her buy the third time. The third time the stock price dropped the most, by 30%, but she also made a lot of money.
Shi Xinyu did give the money to Tao Yong to trade foreign exchange, but she didn't make much, only a little over 30%.
Lu Jiaxin was a little surprised. She didn't expect that Miss Yu wanted to form a partnership with her just after they met. She didn't know much about it and didn't dare to agree rashly. She jokingly said, "Your family is also in the jewelry business. If you do the jewelry business, wouldn't it be suspected of competing with your mother's family?"
Yu Meitong said that she studied jewelry design in college and wanted to create her own brand. However, she was not sure about it alone and wanted to find a partner.
Seeing that she didn't answer her question directly, Lu Jiaxin smiled and said that her idea was good. As for the partnership, she didn't accept it.
Zong Shimeng had been listening to them quietly. When she noticed that Lu Jiaxin was avoiding the topic of Yu Meitong, she immediately changed the subject: "Ms. Lu, Mr. Nie has told my Zhifeng several times that the braised beef you cook is very delicious. Miss Lu, I would like to ask, could you teach me how to make the braised beef?"
Lu Jiaxin was not stupid, and knew she was helping her out as soon as she heard it. Otherwise, the rich like the Hu family would not be able to eat anything they wanted, and they would not be able to buy any secret recipes they wanted: "Of course you can. I will write down the process for you later, and you can just follow it."
Zong Shimeng thanked him.
Shi Xinyu asked in surprise: "Ms. Lu, you can actually make braised beef?"
Lu Jiaxin smiled and nodded: "Although I am an only child, if a girl can't cook and sew, it will be difficult for her to marry into the family in the eyes of the older generation. So my mother taught me to make noodles when I was very young, and I started learning to cook when I was seven. So I can make steamed buns, dumplings, or stir-fry."
Shi Xinyu couldn't understand and said, "My mother always said that a girl's hands are her second face and must be taken good care of. She never let me do housework since I was a child."
This is true, but it presupposes that your family is rich, so this treatment is only enjoyed by rich girls, and girls from ordinary families have to do everything.
Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "My mother believes that having many skills is always a plus. Thanks to my mother's teaching, I was able to support myself by selling snacks when I was in trouble."
Shi Xinyu's mouth was shaped like an O: "You are in trouble, why are you in trouble?"
Lu Jiaxin vaguely said it was an accident, and then she lost her memory: "For more than a month, I supported myself by selling steamed buns and other snacks. I went home only after the blood clots were gone and I regained my memory."
Zong Shimeng knew Lu Jiaxin's background. She nodded and said, "Your mother is right. You still have to learn basic life skills. You never know when they will come in handy."
If Lu Jiaxin didn't have these skills, she would have suffered more.
Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "You can learn cooking as an exercise, but you don't have to force yourself if you don't have the talent. I think the most important thing for girls is to have a skill, so that even if you get into trouble, you can find a job to support yourself. This is just my superficial idea, I hope you won't laugh at me if I don't express it well."
Yu Meitong thought she said it well: "A woman should have her own career, so that no one will dare to look down on you."
And Lu Jiaxin in front of him is the best example.
