Chapter 14 Steady Happiness
Huo Xiang's face was filled with thirst for knowledge, as well as a hint of flattery and guilt.
"Or how much consulting fees do you need? Let's settle it one by one. I'll see if I can afford it."
Li Guixun laughed a little.
"My consulting fee is indeed not cheap. But... if you ask..."
Huo Xiang stared at Li Guixun nervously, afraid that he would say an astronomical figure, and even more afraid that he would say it was free.
The more favors he owed, the more he was afraid he would not be able to repay them.
But there is no one around me who is more suitable to ask for advice than Li Guixun.
"Then let me invest in a stock!" Li Guixun said.
Huo Xiang didn't expect him to say that.
This is quite reasonable. Nowadays, there are things like “technology investment” and “management investment”!
"Sure. I have two more questions. How about giving you more shares? 30%? If we lose money in the end, it won't be your fault. How do you think?"
Li Guixun raised an eyebrow: "You trust me so much?"
Huo Xiang said: "Anyway, you must know more than me. As for losses, there are risks in doing anything, and no one can guarantee a steady profit. I took the initiative to bring you here, so naturally I can't let you bear the burden together."
Moreover, to put it bluntly, this is actually just a blank check, or in simpler terms, it is just a pie in the sky.
Li Guixun smiled with curved eyebrows and said: "Okay, I will give you the plan tomorrow afternoon."
He wished he could be entangled with Huo Xiang for the rest of his life!
Huo Xiang took the opportunity to talk about the steamed bun shop. Li Guixun's intention was to develop a national chain model.
"I'll give you the specific plan as soon as possible. What's the other question?"
Huo Xiang pulled his chair closer and lowered his voice.
"Well, I won a lot of money in a street lottery a few days ago, and I feel a little uneasy. Mr. Li, you are knowledgeable, please help me analyze it and see if there are any risks. Do I need to call the police or something?"
Seeing how sneaky and cute he was, Li Guixun almost couldn't help but rub his head.
"Oh? Street scratch lottery? How much did you win?" he asked with pretended interest.
Huo Xiang looked around and made sure that no one was paying attention to them before he lowered his head even more.
Li Guixun immediately leaned over and listened carefully, but Huo Xiang was at a loss.
Seeing Huo Xiang staring blankly, he urged in a low voice, "How much?"
"Ahem, 660 million."
After saying that, Huo Xiang quickly sat down, as if he was a spy who had received the secret code for the meeting.
Li Guixun was surprised for a moment, then he leaned back in his chair and commented, "It's really an auspicious number."
"The money was deposited into the account immediately, and there is no tax to pay." Huo Xiang added in a low voice.
Li Guixun laughed and said, "No wonder you called the police. Are you afraid of being scammed?"
Huo Xiang nodded honestly.
Li Guixun tapped the beer bottle gently and said meaningfully: "In my opinion... this is not a windfall, but a blessing in disguise."
Huo Xiang was overjoyed to get Li Guixun's affirmation: "So... it can be used?"
"It can be used, but...how do you plan to use it?"
Huo Xiang did not hide anything and told Li Guixun his thoughts.
6.6 is an astronomical figure for ordinary people, but for Li Guixun, it may be a luxury yacht or a private jet.
So he was not worried at all that Li Guixun would have any bad intentions towards his huge sum of money.
"I want to invest two of my shares in Dazhuang'er, oh, that's my good friend Zhuang Yan. He opened a fresh food logistics and distribution company, and he helps me distribute the ingredients for the steamed bun shop and the restaurant. His company now integrates centralized food procurement, processing, sorting, cold chain warehousing, packaging, distribution, and logistics services. I am very optimistic about it."
Li Guixun nodded.
He had been wondering before, why did Huo Xiang want to run a chain of steamed bun shops and restaurants when he knew nothing about the catering industry.
Moreover, since the restaurant is not doing well, he can simply transfer it.
But he wanted to renovate the place and change direction to continue the catering business.
Now it seems that, apart from the reason of Yi Zhazha, he should also be helping his friend!
I'm so envious of that Zhuang'er!
However, the fresh food delivery is good. We can ask the canteen manager to contact them later.
Huo Xiang continued, "Give the other two to Qiao An and set up an entertainment company to support her. It's not easy for her to work in the entertainment industry alone. She has a straightforward personality and is easy to offend people."
Joan?
Is she the female singer who was on the trending search list with Huo Xiang before?
"Add 0.6 to what the Yi family gave us and set up a charity fund specifically for women and children. However, this seems quite troublesome, but I don't want to donate it directly. Take your time!"
Li Guixun nodded again: "It's a good arrangement. Setting up a foundation is a good thing, count me in as one! What about the rest?"
Huo Xiang hesitated for a moment and said, "Don't laugh when I tell you. For the rest, I want to find a reliable bank to deposit it and earn interest..."
Li Guixun curled his lips, raised his head and took a sip of beer, and said, "I won't laugh. There is nothing wrong with this plan."
Huo Xiang was a little surprised: "I thought you would persuade me to invest it or buy stocks or something."
After all, for a business genius, money has to flow in order to make more money.
Li Guixun looked at Huo Xiang and said seriously, "I often feel that when wealth reaches a certain stage, it becomes a symbol, it's just a matter of getting bigger or smaller. It may sound a bit Versailles, but that's the truth.
There is nothing wrong with keeping your money in the bank and getting a decent return if it can bring you more security, stability and happiness. ”
Huo Xiang also looked at Li Guixun, and suddenly his eyes felt a little sore and swollen, as if he was understood by others.
He was an orphan who had been displaced when he was young. Later, he met Yi Qian. He thought he had been redeemed, and tried his best to repay him and wanted him to stay in his life forever.
As a result, he never belonged to himself.
All Huo Xiang wanted was a home and a stable happiness, nothing more.
"Table 16, the skewers you ordered!"
The waiter's voice broke the silence between the two.
Li Guixun picked up a skewer of grilled gluten and handed it to Huo Xiang, whose eyes were a little red, and said in a gentler voice: "You must be hungry. Try Lao Hei's cooking."
Huo Xiang thanked him and took it.
Although he didn't look at him again, Li Guixun's smiling face kept appearing in his mind and lingered for a long time.
The barbecue tasted really good. After a while, the boss came over personally with the grilled fish they ordered.
"Mr. Li, I'm so sorry for not welcoming you in person! You also brought your friends to show your support, which really brings honor to my humble home. Thank you so much, hahahaha..."
Li Guixun rolled his eyes: "Boss Hei is becoming more and more elegant. Will you not use some classical Chinese that I can't understand next time?"
Then he introduced them: "This is my friend Huo Xiang, Huo Xiang, this is Lao Hei."
"Hello, Brother Hei. Everything you bake is delicious, especially the baked gluten."
Huo Xiang naturally gave face to Li Guixun's friend.
Lao Hei smiled cheerfully: "Brother Xiao Huo, thank you for coming to support us. I will grill ten more skewers of gluten for you later. I will make sure you eat and drink well, hahahaha..."
Although Lao Hei is a big and strong man, his smile is very contagious and Huo Xiang couldn't help laughing as well.
Li Guixun was chewing on a kebab while looking at Lao Hei who was greeting customers in the distance, and said softly:
“I also met Lao Hei in there.”
