"Mom and Dad, don't you miss me at all?"
"Don't want to ×2"
The decisive and forceful denial was like two knives stabbing into Xia Yu's chest. It was a little different from what he had imagined.
"Ahem, let's go to security first."
Smart people will break the awkwardness themselves.
I asked my parents to go to the counter to check in their boarding passes, checked in their luggage, and then went straight to security.
"Xiaoyu, come here and line up!"
Old Xia, who had been on a plane before, grabbed Xia Yu and wanted to queue up.
"Why queue? We bought first class."
Xia Yu waved the plane ticket in his hand, and the couple only then noticed this detail.
"First class, that must be so expensive, how can you waste money like that, kid!"
Lin Shuqin cares most about money, even though she knows Xia Yu can make money.
"Mom and Dad, why would you save so much money when you rarely go out? Your son can earn these three tickets in a day."
Xia Yu said nonchalantly that he felt it was necessary to change his parents' spending habits. They could save where necessary, but there was no need to compromise themselves when going out to play.
"Three first-class tickets a day, Old Xia, can you calculate how much that would cost?"
"A first-class ticket from Shanghai to South Africa would cost around 60,000. That's almost 200,000!"
The couple exchanged glances and then looked at Xia Yu in unison.
"Two hundred thousand a day, that's seventy million a year. When did you become so profitable?"
"The vegetables on my farm are more expensive than pork ribs. How can I not make money? And didn't I tell you before? I invested in another project and opened a restaurant. Now the turnover alone is over a hundred thousand."
After the previous preparation, Xia Yu can reveal more of his assets to his parents without worrying that they will not be able to accept it.
"Are you that powerful?"
Both of them looked doubtful, wondering if Xia Yu in front of them was their son.
"Of course, luck is unstoppable. Bitcoin is now almost $3,000 a coin. It's more than doubled since I went back."
Using Bitcoin as an excuse is more reliable than lottery or sports betting, and it is easier to understand than stocks and futures. The rise and fall can be seen with just a chart that can be searched online.
"Old Xia, we have to go and sweep the graves when we return from Africa. I hope your ancestors are high officials down there and bless our son."
Middle-aged women are generally superstitious. Lin Shuqin still believes in science, but what she sees now is not scientific at all.
"Of course. Once isn't enough. I think we should go every month."
Old Xia had the same feeling. If he wasn't afraid that moving the grave would change the feng shui and ruin his son's current fortune, he would have wanted to buy a larger piece of land for the cemetery.
This is what happens to ordinary families when they suddenly become rich. Xia Yu has to help his parents get used to it, and this is also the reason why he arranged this trip to Africa. Once a habit is formed, they will naturally not make a fuss.
I took my parents through special security and arrived at the VIP lounge inside.
Xia Yu was no longer unfamiliar with this place, but his parents, who were visiting for the first time, found it very fresh and were a little restrained in their every move.
Adaptation always takes time. Xia Yu did not advise them to relax. They would probably get used to it when they came back.
It's just a first-class cabin, and it doesn't arrive a few hours earlier than the economy class cabin. There's nothing special about it. What's really rare is the legendary private jet, which is a mobile palace.
After waiting in the lounge for about half an hour, the boarding notice came, and Xia Yu took his parents to board the plane.
This time they took the Airbus A380. Compared with the previous A320, this super-large double-decker aircraft has two more engines and a clear division of first class, business class and economy class in the popular sense.
There are a total of eight first-class seats on the main floor, and Xia Yu's family directly booked nearly half of them. The luxurious and spacious seats can even be folded down to serve as beds. This journey will surely be very comfortable.
The flight attendant serving them was white. Her appearance did not conform to the aesthetic standards of Oriental people, but she could speak Chinese and there was no communication barrier.
Xia Yu ordered a glass of champagne, while his reserved parents only ordered mineral water.
This time the advantages of a large passenger plane were demonstrated. Passengers in each cabin were separated and did not affect each other. Xia Yu didn't even feel the plane sliding out, and only then did he realize that the passengers had been boarded.
It was not until a few hours after takeoff and after lunch that Xia Yu took out his cell phone.
Nowadays, mobile phones still have to be turned off throughout domestic flights, but there are not so many rules on international flights. Although you can't make phone calls, WiFi is provided.
10MB for free, and then 500MB for $1, the price is quite cheap. Xia Yu connected to the WiFi and started looking for someone to chat with.
"Secretary Jiang, have you worked hard today? — The Boss's Gaze.JPG"
"Senior, I have done my job well."
Jiang Baiying, who was feeling a little sleepy after lunch, suddenly responded quickly.
Xia Yu is probably the most unscrupulous capitalist, forcing people to work 997 for just two meals. However, Secretary Jiang himself is very happy to be exploited.
She had to take over on the first day Xia Yu was away. Under Manager Jin's special arrangement, Jiang Baiying not only had to deal with various trivial matters, but also had to conduct various surveys with customers with a smile. She was so busy that she only had time to take a nap after lunch.
It was a little tiring, but it also improved her communication skills.
In the past, Jiang Baiying was as sullen as an iceberg, with an aura of keeping strangers away, but now she has become more approachable.
Jiang Lei and Bai Lu both saw this change.
They used to be worried about whether their daughter could adapt to studying abroad, but now they have no such concerns at all.
"I know, I just care about you."
Xia Yu was the only one who could describe Cloud Supervisor as someone who cared about him.
"By the way, Senior, have you been to Africa?"
"We're still on the plane for ten hours. I plan to sleep straight after dinner until we land."
Because of the time difference, South Africa's time is 6 hours behind China's. Xia Yu and his team set off in the morning and flew directly for 14 hours, arriving in Johannesburg around 4 pm on the 16th.
"Then you should have a good rest, and take more photos for me."
Jiang Baiying specifically said that she knew Xia Yu was good at photography and was also very interested in the legendary Africa.
It’s good to look at the photos even if you can’t go.
"Okay, it's all small stuff. I'm also planning to shoot a vlog and send it to you later."
Speaking of vlogs, a certain pigeon spirit didn’t even finish editing the Sanya vlog last month, and this time he jumped directly abroad to Africa. He is really a younger brother.
I postponed June, and now more than half of July has passed. Why not just postpone it all?
It's a good idea. After all, he won't be home until the end of the month, so he won't have time to edit videos.
Thinking of this, Xia Yu felt at ease. He chatted with Secretary Jiang for a while, then threw away his phone and started taking a nap.
The seat was extremely soft after being reclined, and Xia Yu fell asleep quickly. When he opened his eyes again, it was already evening in China.
