Chapter 436 The Boss Went to Visit Relatives
"The market share of Lashou.com in Shanghai is about to collapse?"
The group buying market is currently focused on second- and third-tier cities, and the speed at which group buying opens up the market is unimaginable, so much so that only some people had just heard of the news until the end of the entire breakout battle.
How did Lashou.com suddenly lose such a large part of the core business district?
Did they not resist or did they lose the fight? What the hell is the background of that group buying, and why is it so weird? So, the details of the group buying operation in Shanghai began to spread gradually in the circle, and it became a nightmare for a while around the winter solstice.
"It is said that their promoters are all champions of Wulinfeng, and some are retired special forces soldiers. They are all made of iron."
"Having laid out plans half a year in advance, this website had already made plans for every website when everyone else was burning money like crazy!"
"They made a bet with the merchants..."
"We used the city layout of the chain brands to avoid direct confrontation and directly formed an encirclement..."
"Using the second- and third-tier markets to contain the capital transfers of major websites, they turned around and stole the first-tier markets..."
Never underestimate rumors, because many rumors are actually closest to the original truth. It is often the official announcements that are modified beyond recognition for the sake of profit.
So gradually, the details of the market battle in Shanghai began to be filled in through various rumors.
"The Dormancy of University Town"
"Iron Army"
《Food Festival Chain Brand》
《First Half Year Deep Cooperation Agreement》
After learning the whole story, many people felt like they were hit by a dimensionality reduction attack.
Especially those who were more deeply involved in the story, they put themselves in Robin's perspective and experienced it carefully. When they opened their eyes again, they were already sweating coldly.
The most important thing is that up to now, Lashou.com's business area in Shanghai has been shrinking, just like sand in your hand, the more you try to hold it, the harder it is to hold it.
This can't help but remind people of the last moments of Sui Xin Tuan. Their situation was similar at that time. Despite various efforts, users were still leaving at an accelerated rate.
"Hello, Mr. Tan. I am a reporter from Economic Express. May I interview Mr. Jiang?"
"Um... sorry, my boss is visiting relatives."
"It doesn't matter. I can come anytime. As long as Mr. Jiang has time, any time is fine."
“…”
"Hello, I want to interview Mr. Jiang..."
"Our boss went to visit relatives."
“…”
A wave of fast-paced attacks from Shanghai was coming to an end. Jiang Qin breathed a sigh of relief and then ran to visit Sheshan Manor.
After all, I have come to Shanghai. I have been making plans before, so it is understandable that I don’t have time. But now that the situation has stabilized, it would be a big deal if I don’t visit the uncle and aunt of the rich woman.
These are all respectable and lovely elders, and they even gave him a big gold watch.
Even if he and Feng Nanshu were not close friends, he should still come and visit for both moral and practical reasons.
At 11:30 am, Jiang Qin drove to the villa. Feng Shihua was practicing calligraphy at that time. He put down his brush immediately after hearing the sound of the car. He found that Jiang Qin had walked in with various gifts.
"Fuck you? Uncle, that's a very polite word!"
Jiang Qin looked at the large characters on the table with the ink not yet dried, and his eyes revealed a trace of genuine and unpretentious appreciation.
Feng Shihua's mouth twitched. "This is called Chunchi Yanyun, which comes from Lushan Ballad. It means that when winter ends and spring comes, the flowers bloom by the pond."
Jiang Qin suddenly realized: "Now that you put it that way, it really does look like it!"
"Don't interrupt me, you little brat. You've been in Shanghai for half a month, right? Why did you come to see me and your aunt only now?"
"Uncle, it's unfair. I should have come on the winter solstice and bought all the gifts, but I had a lot of work to do at that time, so I had to postpone it. I was so upset that I couldn't sleep."
Feng Shihua is very aware of the strong entry of group buying in Shanghai, and he and Qin Jingqiu have been discussing this matter in private.
Whenever they talked about Jiang Qin's thunderous moves, they were shocked and full of praise.
The couple had a lot of investments in Shanghai, and had met many young talents, including those with slicked-back hair, who liked to use a few English words when speaking, and who were always talking about the international situation.
But what Jiang Qin showed was much more valuable than what he said.
This cheap son-in-law is really a gold mine.
Feng Shihua said last time that even if Jiang Qin was not the apple of Feng Nanshu's eye, but just a stranger, he would probably help him because he appreciated his talent.
Facts have proved that his judgment was correct, and even more so.
Just looking at all the moves in the past half month, not a single one has missed the target. This requires not only a long-term layout, but also a strong control ability. After all, not everyone can control a layout that takes half a year.
“Has the Shanghai market stabilized?”
"Hold on. Now everyone should understand that I, Jiang Qin, am not a pretty vase." Jiang Qin said this with a look of relief on his face.
Feng Shihua was making tea for Jiang Qin and didn't hear the last sentence. He asked again: "Do you want to continue to push forward this market?"
Jiang Qin shook his head: "Lashou.com is not giving up the Shanghai market, but they just can't spare any effort for the time being. But if I push them too hard, they will do anything. After all, I hit them too hard this time. If it happens again, they may give up the second and third tier cities and come after me."
"Leaving a piece of rations behind and eating them slowly later is also a good choice. At least it is stable."
"Well, besides, my investment in the market has almost exhausted all my capital, so I need to make some money back first."
After listening to this, Feng Shihua turned to look at him and asked, "How much do you need?"
Jiang Qin took a deep breath and thought to himself that rich people are really arrogant: "Uncle, I don't need it for now. If I use your money, someone will say that I am using Feng Nanshu to curry favor with others."
See, it’s clean!
Feng Shihua sighed a little. He always felt that Jiang Qin had a clean world in his heart, which was reserved for his niece. How is it now?
Rich families receive too much courtesy and intimacy because of their business dealings. Instead of liking it after eating too much, they get sick of it.
It takes someone like Jiang Qin, who doesn't even ask for money, to make them sure that this kindness is not mixed with too many vested interests.
Jiang Qin looked up at the living room and asked, "Where's my aunt?"
Feng Shihua pointed in the direction of the kitchen: "She's cooking in the kitchen. She's been busy since this morning. She said she's going to make a big meal."
"Auntie cooks for us herself?"
"Isn't it because you are coming? Otherwise, your aunt would not be so proactive. She doesn't cook for anyone to eat."
Although Uncle Feng's words sounded a bit like a bootlicker, they were actually quite true.
The Feng family's investments in Shanghai are all decided by my aunt, and Qin's Real Estate is also managed by my aunt. Being able to eat the meals cooked by her is definitely a treatment that not everyone can have.
There were other guests when Jiang Qin came last time, so the meals they ate were all cooked by Wu Ma. But this time there were no outsiders, so Qin Jingqiu insisted on cooking by herself, and she started working in the morning.
All kinds of seafood, chicken, duck and fish, the aroma fills the air as they are cooked.
Aunt Wu was helping to prepare the ingredients and directing the cooking time, and she was very busy but happy.
Except for Jiang Qin who pretended not to know, everyone in the villa knew that the son-in-law of the family had come, because in all these years, the lady had never cooked for outsiders.
After listening to this, Jiang Qin went to the kitchen and saw Qin Jingqiu wearing an apron and holding a spatula. For a lady like her, such a scene was indeed a bit abrupt.
"Aunt, long time no see."
"Coming?"
"Yeah, don't bother making too many dishes, I just want a simple meal."
"That won't work. You can't come here many times this year. If I don't treat you well, Nan Shu will be dissatisfied. So, go sit in the living room first. The food will be ready soon."
Qin Jingqiu held the spatula and couldn't help but add: "By the way, take Nanshu with you on your business trip next time. Don't always come alone. I won't welcome you if you continue to do that."
After listening to this, Jiang Qin touched his nose and thought to himself, I came to see these two respectable and lovely elders in my private capacity, why do they always talk as if they were asking me to bring my wife back to my parents' home?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but recall the scene of him bringing the little rich woman home, the scene of the little rich woman nestling on the sofa in his house watching TV, and the scene of the little rich woman following him.
Yeah, my mom is like that too.
Ever since the little rich woman came into our family, we haven’t even received any red envelopes during the Chinese New Year.
"What did your mother say when you took back Nan Shu's childhood photo last time?"
"She's addicted. She asks me every day if I have more, but I only allow her to watch one picture a day. It's because she always controlled me when I was in elementary school and didn't let me watch Dragon Ball."
Jiang Qin's eyes were filled with nostalgia: "We still had a big-butt TV at home back then. I couldn't even sneak a peek while she was still at work. She would know I was watching TV again just by touching me."
Soon, the hot meal was served on the table. The three of them ate and chatted, with the topic mainly revolving around Jiang Qin's career and Feng Nanshu.
"Jiang Qin, do you want to buy a house in Shanghai?"
"Um?"
Qin Jingqiu picked up a piece of pork chop and gave it to him: "I have a friend who is developing a villa area. The location and environment are very good. How about I reserve one for you?"
Hearing his wife's words, Feng Shihua immediately put down his chopsticks.
He knew that his wife's mother-in-law's mentality had come back again and she had already started planning to have Jiang Qin buy a wedding house in Shanghai.
They also booked an apartment in that villa area, so that when the couple moved in after marriage, they could visit each other on a regular basis, and they could also celebrate the holidays together.
"You have made a lot of investments in your business recently, so you probably don't have a lot of money. If you agree, I will keep the villa for you."
A villa is nothing to Jiang Qin's current net worth. Even in Shanghai, it is within his reach. The reason why Qin Jingqiu said this is that she didn't want Jiang Qin to refuse.
She wanted to say, why not just give it to you as a wedding gift, but she felt it was too early and really inappropriate.
Let’s not talk about the progress of the relationship, let’s just talk about Jiang Qin, he’s not even of legal age yet.
"Your aunt's suggestion is a good one. Real estate investment is hot right now. Buying a villa in Shanghai is definitely a very stable real estate."
Feng Shihua followed his wife's words, and the couple sang in unison, with a tacit understanding.
Hearing this, Jiang Qin was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself, I have worked so hard and am so outstanding, why do I still feel like I am about to be kept by a rich woman?
