Chapter 5 Investment.
Looking at the female walking over, Lu Xia searched the original owner's memory to find out the other party's identity. It was Duke Lan Ya who often hung out with the original owner. Because the two were of similar age and had similar interests, they often accompanied each other to do evil.
Lu Xia looked at the other party walking in familiarly and said, "You came at the right time. Recently, I plan to restart the No. 1 Institute. I am short of funds. Please invest some."
She said it straightforwardly and naturally, as if she was not asking for money from the other party, but just saying that the weather was good today.
Duke Lan Ya opened his eyes wide and looked at Lu Xia in disbelief: "What are you crazy about? If you don't manage it recklessly
, you will make money. Don't mess around!"
Obviously, even Duke Lan Ya, who had similar interests, didn't trust Lu Xia's business acumen.
Lu Xia naturally knew that this was a legacy of the original owner.
"You can invest with confidence this time. If you make money, I will give you money according to the investment ratio." The expression on Lu Xia's face was very serious, not like a joke.
Lan Ya stared at her for a long while: "No, you are serious, what do you think?"
The little friend who played with her suddenly started to make progress, which was really unexpected for her.
"I just don't want to mess around anymore, I want to do something good, how about it, are you interested in joining us?" Lu Xia raised the corners of his lips, looking like an active invitation.
Duke Lan Ya's family is rich, she knew from the original owner's memory that instead of letting Duke Lan Ya use the money to hang out outside and bully males, it would be better to use it to do something serious.
"How much do you want?" Duke Lan Ya was a little tempted by Lu Xia's serious look, but he was worried about losing money. After all, the two of them have been together for so many years, and she knows Lu Xia better than anyone else.
"Take 5 million first, and we'll talk if it's not enough." When Lu Xia said the 5 million, her tone was as relaxed as if she was saying 5 yuan.
"So much!" Duke Lan Ya was stimulated. She thought that 1 or 2 million would be enough at most. Unexpectedly, Lu Xia asked for 5 million at the first moment, and asked for "take it first", which means that the 5 million might not be enough. So, "What are you going to do? Will you really not lose money?"
"As long as you do business, there will be risks. I can't guarantee you that it will be foolproof, but I can promise that I am serious this time."
Hearing this, Duke Lan Ya was shaken again: "Okay, I'll go back and prepare and call you, but what exactly do you want to do?"
These research institutes in Duke Lu Xia's family were indeed profitable in the past, but with the death of the previous duke, Lu Xia took over and almost collapsed. Now Lu Xia wants to revive, Duke Lan Ya is still uneasy, but she thinks contradictorily, what if, what if Lu Xia really succeeds, then won't she make money with him!
"You don't need to know what it is for now. It must be a profitable business. You hurry up. I can only wait for you for two days. If I can't raise the money in two days, I will find another way." Lu Xia looked like she didn't need you, which made Duke Lan Ya take this matter to heart. He even felt a sense of crisis, as if he missed this opportunity and missed it
. He nodded and promised, "Okay, I know, I will go back to prepare now." Watching Duke Lan Ya leave in a hurry, Lu Xia thought that the initial investment of 5 million should be enough.
I didn't expect to have an unexpected gain on this trip today.
The gardeners hired by the old housekeeper worked very efficiently. When Lu Xia left, the cleaning work in the garden had been completed. If nothing goes wrong, pruning and replanting can be carried out tomorrow.
Compared with the renovation of the garden, hiring professional researchers is much more troublesome, but Lu Xia is not very worried. As long as the salary and benefits are in place, she believes that people will still come. As the saying goes, money makes the devil work. No matter where you are, there will always be people who bow to reality.
So her reputation, good or bad, is not an issue at all.
After returning from Courtyard No. 1, Lu Xia felt that her body was unusually weak. She obviously did nothing but walk a few steps. The original owner's physical fitness was really poor. It seems necessary to exercise.
Rubbing her sore shoulders, she returned to the room and prepared to take a hot bath to relax. Unexpectedly, she fell asleep in the bathtub.
When she woke up, she saw Grace kneeling beside the bathtub. At that moment, it was as if she had returned to the night before in her dream. She was startled: "Why are you here?"
When she moved, she found that the water in the bathtub had become a little cold. Did she sleep for so long?
Grace was holding a bath towel in her hand, which was obviously prepared for her: "I just came back. The housekeeper said that you haven't come down for dinner and is a little worried, so he asked me to come up to see you. I just want to carry you out. If you soak for too long, the water will be cold and you will catch a cold."
Lu Xia reached out and took the bath towel from his hand: "I know, you go out first, I can do it myself."
Hearing this, Grace stood up from the ground: "Then call me if you have anything, I'll be outside."
Lu Xia nodded, and when Grace was about to turn around, she couldn't help but say: "Don't kneel casually in the future, I don't like it."
She really couldn't stand it. This behavior of kneeling at every turn made her feel like a slave owner.
Grace, who was walking out with her back to her, stiffened her back. Obviously, she didn't expect Lu Xia to say this. She didn't turn around, but just responded lightly: "Okay."
It's not an illusion. As she gets more and more opportunities to get along with Lu Xia, she can naturally feel the difference from the other party from the rumors.
It's just that there are many females who can act, and Grace has also encountered that kind of female who is very approachable outside, but has a devilish face in private.
But Lu Xia was the opposite. People outside didn’t have a good opinion of her, but she was not like that at all in private.
Grace didn’t understand. If Lu Xia was not the kind of person rumored by the outside world, why did she behave like that? Could it be that Duke Lu Xia had some unspeakable secret?
Although she guessed this way, Grace didn’t dare to take it lightly, because being cheated was not terrible. What was terrible was being cheated after giving one’s true heart.
Lu Xia quickly got dressed and came out of the bathroom. A good sleep relieved her fatigue a little, but she had no appetite.
However, Grace’s performance in the evening was not bad. He didn’t stand by her while she was eating, but knew to sit down with her. This saved Lu Xia a lot of trouble.
Even after dinner, Grace seemed to have nothing to do. He was always by her side, not talking and being quite quiet. However, it was not a good feeling to have someone around her no matter what she did. Finally, Lu Xia turned to look at the man: "
Don't you have anything to do?"
Grace was slightly startled, as if she didn't expect Lu Xia to ask this. After a moment of silence, she said: "Don't you need my service?"
As the most humble husband in the family, all his behavioral rules must be based on the female master, and the female master's needs always come first. So no matter what his status is outside, as long as he returns home, he must ensure that when Lu Xia needs him, he can be the first to appear and be on standby at any time.
