Hearing the familiar voice, Li Mu turned around subconsciously. His father, Li Daoping, was sitting in the brand new Passat, looking at Li Mu with a smile.
"Dad, why are you here?" Li Mu blurted out and asked. Then he came to his senses and saw that his father was actually sitting in the cab. Could it be...
"Dad, is this your new car?"
Li Daoping nodded and said with a smile: "I just mentioned it a few days ago, so I didn't tell you. I wanted to give you a surprise."
Only then did Li Mu understand why his father repeatedly asked him where the bus stopped. He told him it was at the Haizhou Hotel, but he didn't expect him to drive over and pick him up.
Zhao Kang also came over to greet Dad Li at this time: "Uncle Li!"
Li Daoping responded quickly and said with a smile: "You two get in the car quickly, the family is waiting."
Li Mu laughed, opened the passenger door and got in. Zhao Kang also sat in the back seat.
The Passat that Dad Li mentioned was this year’s new 1.8T automatic transmission. Li Mu sat in and looked at the configuration. It should be mid-to-high configuration. The car was very clean. The leather seats were specially covered with cotton seat cushions. Dad Li started the ignition cautiously. , start in gear, and drive quite steadily.
Li Mu asked him: "Dad, why did you think of buying this car?"
Dad Li said with a fond look on his face: "When I was young, I knew that Santana was a good car. It is a big German brand. After getting my driver's license, I went to Jinling to look at cars. This car has a reasonable price, enough space, and a stable appearance, so After discussing it with your mother, I decided to buy this."
At present, the two specialty stores run by Li's father and Li's mother have a combined monthly net profit of more than 500,000 yuan, and December is the most profitable season. From now to the Chinese New Year, one can earn hundreds of thousands a month. It's not a problem. Li Mu has weighed his parents' current financial resources and earning capacity, and feels that it is very easy for his father to buy a Mercedes-Benz and BMW. But he didn't expect to actually buy a car, and he actually bought a Volkswagen without saying a word.
Li Mu is not a Volkswagen fan. The design of Volkswagen matryoshka makes it difficult for him to feel the beauty of Volkswagen models. The only model that surprised him was the Volkswagen CC, but later it became a mediocre person. For people like Passat, The township government provides buses as standard, and Li Mu is even less interested in them, but it doesn't matter, as long as dad likes them.
Zhao Kang was sitting in the back seat, looking around at the interior of the Passat. He was thinking in his mind that he couldn't spend his money randomly at the moment. He had to invest in a taxi company for his father first, but now he had the ability to make money. He is very strong. After returning to Yanjing, he will be able to save a few months and buy a car for his father. He has nothing to pursue in his life. He just wants to save face. He hopes that his son can succeed. Now he has made a lot of money with Li Mu. , it’s time to repay him.
Li Ma prepared a lot of fruits at home. She knew that Li Mu had eaten dinner on the plane, but the food on the plane was not delicious and nutritious. She just wanted to wait for him to come back so she could eat some fruits and then take a bath and sleep well. Sleep.
The bed had been made for him a long time ago. After a day in the sun, the bedding was very comfortable. Knowing that he was used to heating in the north, she was afraid that he would not be able to bear the cold and wet when he came back. She had just installed three air conditioners in the house a few days ago. At this moment Two heating units were turned on so that he could feel the warmth of home as soon as he entered the house.
After everything was ready, Ma Li sat on the sofa in the living room and waited to hear the sound. When her husband came back from his car, he would usually drive the car directly to the door of his bungalow. There are not many private cars in the whole community now, so as soon as he heard the sound of the engine, he could basically I concluded it was my husband's car.
The sound of the engine finally came closer and closer, and slowly came to the door. Li's mother strained her ears to listen to the sound of the car door opening and closing. She quickly came out of the living room and walked through her small courtyard to the bungalow at the door.
As soon as he opened the door, Li Mu saw his mother rushing towards the door. He smiled, went up and hugged his mother, smiling like a child: "Mom, I'm back."
Mother Li was extremely happy. Although she had not been separated from her son for long, she had already missed him so much that she quickly pulled Li Mu into the house, for fear that he would be freezing outside.
Li Mu also discovered as soon as he entered the house that his home was similar to a heated room in the north. It was warm. Unlike previous winters, it would even feel colder than outside after staying in the house for a long time.
Li's mother pulled Li Mu to sit down in front of the sofa, and began to urge Li Mu to eat some fruit. Li's father came in behind her, and the couple sandwiched Li Mu on the left and right, asking him about his recent study and life.
Li Mu reported in an understatement: Studying is easy and life is comfortable.
When his parents asked if 3321 was tired of things, Li Mu said that 3321 was on the right track and he was no longer in charge of things, and others were in charge.
Dad Li said seriously: "3321 is a good project. Since you are determined to use it for charity, you must stick to it. First, you are not allowed to give up halfway, and second, you are not allowed to be greedy and misappropriate the student funds in 3321. If you are short of money, Parents sponsor you.”
Li Mu said: "The money from 3321 has only two uses. In addition to maintaining the operation of 3321, the rest is used to assist students."
Dad Li nodded: "If you are short of money, remember to tell your parents."
Li Mu hesitated for a moment. He had also struggled with the issue of whether to tell his parents about Makino Technology. He had given up the idea at the end before, but now that he has even done something as big as 3321, he revealed a little bit about it. It should be easier for parents to accept the Makino Technology thing, right
Thinking like this, Li Mu followed what his parents said and said, "You don't have to worry about whether I have money to spend in Yanjing. In fact, in addition to 3321, I also established a company in Yanjing."
Li's father and Li's mother both looked surprised: "You also opened a company? What does it do?"
"The Internet." Li Mu said, "Now that the Internet is in its development stage, it is easier to get into the industry."
Li Ma asked: "How can you have time to start a company while you are in school? Don't delay your studies anymore."
Li Mu comforted him: "Don't worry, Mom, the study pressure at school is not heavy, and I don't interfere with the company's affairs every day."
Li Ma nodded, still a little uneasy and said: "Why don't you stop running a business? Your parents will give you all the money earned in the store from now on, and you will be responsible for keeping an eye on the money in your bank card. If you have enough money to buy a house, just buy one and put it there. I always feel that house prices in Yanjing will rise very sharply in the future. If you buy more houses to live in, you won't have to worry about it in the future."
Li Mu smiled slightly. His mother had always said that she wanted to buy a house in Yanjing. This vision was very accurate. However, for me, buying a house was really not challenging, and the price-performance ratio was not good. I had the money to buy a house. It is also good to use it for investment. There will be so many successful Internet companies in the future. If you have money, just invest more. A hundred times the profit will be nothing.
However, Li Mu couldn't say this to his parents, so he said to them: "Now is indeed a good opportunity to invest in real estate. Real estate in Yanjing, real estate in Jinling, and commercial properties are all high-quality investments that can be considered. Target, but this kind of investment is still too conservative. I feel that now that the economy is on the upswing, investing in real estate will be a bit of a disadvantage.”
As he spoke, Li Mu brought up the matter that he wanted his parents to invest money in opening a taxi company. He first briefly told them about his and Zhao Kang's plans, and then added: "In the taxi business, I The main consideration is the issue of qualification certificates in the future. The city government cannot allow the number of taxis to increase and eventually the streets will be full of taxis. Therefore, it will definitely be controlled at a certain point in time. Once controlled, the threshold will be high. The taxi qualification certificate is only valuable.”
Dad Li said: "Investing in a taxi company is similar to hoarding a house, right? While the house appreciates in value, you can also collect monthly rent."
Li Mu nodded and said with a smile: "Dad's metaphor is correct, but investing in taxis is more cost-effective than investing in real estate in all aspects. On the one hand, the current ratio of rent to house price is too outrageous. A house of one hundred square meters costs about two hundred thousand yuan." , with all the home appliances, you can rent it for a few hundred yuan a month, but a taxi only costs 50,000 to 60,000 yuan, so you can earn more than 2,000 yuan a month, and it’s free to get a qualification certificate now. , whatever you sell in the future will be your net profit.”
Father Li and Mother Li exchanged a look. Father Li took the initiative to take a backseat and said, "Daughter-in-law, you are better at doing business than me. You decide."
Mother Li said with a smile: "My son said yes, so it will definitely be good. Mr. and Mrs. Zhao are also down-to-earth people, so I think there is no problem."
Dad Li said: "If you think it's okay, then it's okay for me too."
…
Zhao Kang's living room.
Zhao Kang's parents looked at their son in shock, who had just finished talking about a lot of taxi company concepts. Zhao Kang's father smoked a cigarette, half-smoked and even forgot to smoke it. He didn't shake it away until it was hot, and the ash got all over it. A coffee table.
Zhao's mother hurriedly picked up the cigarette butts and threw them in the ashtray, then wiped off the ashes with a rag. At the same time, she looked at Zhao Kang and asked him, "Is this Xiao Mu's idea or yours?"
Zhao Kang said: "Of course it was Xiao Mu, I don't have his brains."
Zhao's mother glanced at her husband and said, "Xiao Mu has a great business acumen. Look at the two stores he opened for his parents, making hundreds of thousands a month. Who would dare to think of making so much money?"
Dad Zhao said: "It sounds quite reasonable, but I don't know what it will be like in practice. Besides, how much money will our family get if we invest 40%?"
Zhao Kang said: "Dad, don't worry about money. Li Mu said that the maximum investment is more than 1 million, and I can still afford 40% of the money."
Zhao's parents and Zhao's mother were shocked when they heard this: "Where did you get so much money?!"
Zhao Kang said: "It's profitable. Xiaomu started a company and earned hundreds of thousands before. Now he is still doing some other businesses, with a guaranteed monthly income of tens of thousands, so Dad, you can do it boldly." , as long as you do your best, I believe you will be fine."
Zhao Kang didn't dare to say that he could earn at least six figures a month by doing plug-ins. After all, plug-ins were just a side project, so it was better to keep a low profile. After returning to Yanjing, he had to prepare for opening an Internet cafe. Since Li Mu said he would Be more cautious, then you must be more cautious.
At this time, Father Zhao smacked his lips, looked at Zhao Kang, and said excitedly and eagerly: "Son, I am willing to try this!"
