It was because of this stone that Jiang Lei had guessed about Xia Yu's family background, and this was what he did on purpose.
Xia Yu's original idea was to fabricate a background of his family running a gold mine, and he put it into practice. He spent several million to buy two gold mines of lower grade in Ghana. Later, he found that his idea was too simple and people could trace the source of his funds.
He who strikes first gains the advantage, and he who strikes later will suffer the consequences. Xia Yu followed the clues himself and found that the sign-in salary sent to him by the system came from several African foundations, all of which had a mining background.
Well, this proves that the system is not printing money out of thin air, but using the resources of the earth itself to pay him wages. It is reasonable and legal, but it can also be regarded as a coincidence.
"Xiao Xia, sit down!"
"good!"
Xia Yu and Jiang Lei sat face to face at the desk.
"It's been ages since we've chatted like this. I'm busy, but you're even busier. You've built such a great career, you're truly accomplished at such a young age!"
Jiang Lei said as he poured a cup of tea for himself and Xia Yu.
This was not a compliment, but a sigh of emotion. He had been busy for most of his life, but he could not compare to Xia Yu's work in this year. It was really like the Yangtze River, with the new wave pushing the old wave forward, and each wave was stronger than the last.
"Uncle, you're too kind. I've only achieved this with good luck and the support of my family. You know, even with all the talk of economic globalization, there's still unrest out there. My family keeps buying properties in China because we want to transfer some of our assets back home."
Xia Yu said this modestly, but he was still talking nonsense.
Apart from those two mines, what other assets does he have abroad?
One house in every country?
He was afraid that it would be a waste of money to buy a room for the rat to live in, so his first choice when going out was still a hotel suite.
It would be better to buy a private island than a house abroad, and it must have a deep-water port that can accommodate an aircraft carrier. Xia Yuke has always been thinking about purchasing a second-hand aircraft carrier and turning it into his super yacht.
A yacht with a deck that can take off and land fighter jets and dock armed helicopters is really great to think about.
If we build an airport on the island, people can travel freely to Shanghai, spend the winter when it’s cold, and go on vacation when it’s hot.
With an airport and a circuit built around the island according to the specifications of the Nürburgring, all the cars in Xia Yu's collection can be pulled over for a run, and the F1 car he has always dreamed of can also race freely on the island without having to worry about track days or open days.
"You're doing great. You're contributing to the country's development. Unlike those rich people who just run abroad with their money, what happened is that the rich will help the poorer ones to get richer!"
Jiang Lei also couldn't help but speak out.
Is the moon abroad really rounder than the one in China?
Not necessarily. Not to mention the more dangerous country of Magnesium, the neighboring country of Maple Leaf is showing a trend of developing towards Canada. The public security in Europe has been very poor due to the influx of refugees in the past two years. Australia is full of toxic substances and the climate is extremely harsh, not to mention Africa.
After comparing around, China is still better. Although there are some problems and they often become hot searches, this is an era of comparing the worst. Exposing the problems and developing in a good direction is already half the battle won.
"There's nothing I can do. My roots are in China, and I can't lose them."
Xia Yu had no intention of becoming a world citizen. He was doing well in China. However, a scholar knows everything about the world without leaving home. He often went out, so his vision would naturally not be limited to China.
"That's right. I think so too. Letting Baiying go abroad is more about letting her gain some experience. She will definitely come back after graduation. I will hand over these factories to her then."
Jiang Lei agreed with Xia Yu's words and mentioned his future plans.
"Uncle, do you plan to continue working in the clothing industry?"
Xia Yu suddenly asked.
"Xiao Xia, is that so? The clothing industry is doing very well. I'm still catching up on orders from two years ago!"
Jiang Lei keenly sensed that there was something behind Xia Yu's words, so he opened his mouth and asked.
"The domestic clothing industry is booming, which is a benefit brought by economic globalization, but will the economy continue to prosper like this?"
Xia Yu threw the question back.
“I think so!”
Jiang Lei was also a little uncertain because he had never thought about this question.
"Then we should assume that it won't happen. The global economy will no longer be prosperous. The first things to be affected are food, clothing, housing, and transportation. People will start to tighten their belts, and factories will receive fewer and fewer orders. Previous orders may even be canceled due to breach of contract. What will you do then, uncle?"
Born in adversity, die in comfort, Xia Yu taught Jiang Lei a lesson.
"I can only close a few branches, lay off employees, reduce scale, cut costs, and wait for the economy to recover, or I will go bankrupt before I can wait."
Jiang Lei followed Xia Yu's assumption.
He didn't know about it before, but now he is shocked. He has seen many old friends and rivals in the business world fail over the years.
"This is the worst-case scenario, and the probability of it happening is very small, but uncle, you can consider investing in other industries to diversify your risks."
"Xiao Xia, do you have any good suggestions? You are so insightful and capable, so you must have some promising industries."
Jiang Lei humbly asked Xia Yu for advice.
Xia Yu has already proven himself with his achievements, and his words carry great weight.
"I am quite optimistic about the elderly care industry. After all, our country is already an aging society, and the market in this area will definitely be huge in the future."
Xia Yu expressed his thoughts.
His ultimate goal is to get Jiang Lei on board.
One person can never make all the money, and Xia Yu doesn't have the energy to get involved in all the industries he is optimistic about. At this time, the best way is to join forces with others to seize the opportunity.
We can all make money together, but these people must be close to him.
Jiang Lei and Xia Yu have a close relationship. After all, the other person might be his future father-in-law. If he were to use interests to bind his father-in-law now, wouldn't he have to stand on his side in the future?
"This market is quite large, but running a nursing home is not easy. It's hard to expand into a chain like a restaurant."
Jiang Lei thought about it carefully and found that Xia Yu's idea was quite reliable, but there would be some problems in its implementation.
"We don't do terminal business. Terminal elderly care is still small, scattered and chaotic. We can do upstream supporting business."
Xia Yu and Jiang Lei explained in detail.
"For products like ventilators and home blood pressure monitors, we need to build the framework first and not rush to make money now. We can wait three to five years before making another profit."
"Yes, you can't be too hasty in making money. You need to refine your products and build your brand over the next few years so that you can be competitive when the market opens."
Jiang Lei's vision is not short-sighted. Now is 2018, and there will be more and more elderly people in the future, and the demand will only become greater and greater. The current investment is to lay the foundation and practice internal skills.
If it is done well, you can eat meat and drink wine with big mouthfuls. If it is not done well, you can only drink some soup, which is better than nothing.
