Chapter 258 The Great Capitalist
"concentrated!"
The crackling sound echoed, Xie Jingxing put on a pair of trumpet target on both hands to defend, and fists as big as cantaloupe fell one after another.
His feet went weak and he was hit on the chin, causing him to fall backwards to the ground.
"No more fighting, I'll owe you the rest."
关宁摘下拳套,昨天打猎她胜二负三,两两相抵乖儿子要挨四顿揍,这小子去年挨枪子后遗症比她想的严重今天揍的不尽兴。
Xie Jing Xing rubbed the bruised corner of his mouth with a grin, feeling cheated. It was because of the woman that I shouldn't have taken the family photo last night.
Song Anli suddenly got sick and regained her confidence. She was so happy to get her revenge that she went to Queenstown with Concubine Pei this morning to avoid the limelight and go shopping. Yu Tong couldn't save face and went to a small island bought by his mother in northern New Zealand to see the sea. Yuan Jin was taken by Zhou Fenglan to Christchurch to meet friends.
Thousands of beauties sharing the same pillow scattered in the blink of an eye, but there are still tens of thousands of beauties to admire in the room.
The old mother created a wonder, using four greenhouses to simulate the corresponding landform environment to transplant thousands of rare plants and cultivate the elegance of flower arrangement and gardening.
"What gift did you give them?" Xie Jingxing finally had the chance to ask.
Guan Ning was wearing a short blue jacket, a green flower doll watch and a jade bracelet, and he was pruning flowers like a Taoist priest.
Xie Jingxing honestly confessed his thoughts: "I think there may be information gap."
"It doesn't matter. They want to do this, and their families condone it."
Guan Ning put down the scissors and said helplessly: "It is also possible that they really just think that you are too philandering and I am overthinking it."
"Nothing, you're right. I won't accept them holding a large number of shares in Taihe Grapefruit and Yunshan anyway."
"I mean, you really don't think you're overly philandering?"
Xie Jing Xing was speechless. He had a little experience with it before Yuan Jin, but now he was completely enjoying it.
"The Belt and Road Initiative is a good opportunity. With the relaxation of currency controls, Mr. Xie can be more aggressive in his overseas investment strategy. I can feel some changes from their attitudes this time." Guan Ning turned to the main topic and sounded a little pessimistic.
International confrontation and economic downturn and even recession are all conservative drivers, and even children know that.
However, Xie Jingxing felt that it was sufficient for Yunshan Group to invest steadily in a few energy projects, and aggressive and large-scale investment overseas might not be a good thing.
If one wants to become a home port for international capital, one must inevitably go through a period of pain with outflows and then returns, a process that will be accompanied by so-called necessary sacrifices, and he does not want to be part of the necessary sacrifices.
"The key is whether you can do it? I think you are taking a greater risk. You are speculating and gambling." Guan Ning inserted the flower branch into the water bottle.
"You haven't been back home for too long."
Xie Jingxing shrugged: "At least in the next five years, my judgment is that the overall situation will be positive. There is no gambling. It's just the unity of knowledge and action."
"So this is the reason why you are so determined to spend money and rush into the logistics real estate industry?"
Guan Ning was vaguely touched. His good son was certain that he was in an upward elevator and that he would make money in the future whether he did push-ups or lifts.
Xie Jingxing and Old Xie seldom discuss business topics. He thinks his father is a country bumpkin, and his father thinks he is a dog capitalist. They don't agree on anything.
It is a different situation with my old mother. She was a college student in the late 1980s and her thinking was limited by the times.
Regardless of his biological father and mother, although they were much more willing to humble themselves and admit their shortcomings than some of their peers, Xie Jingxing had achieved results that were enough to prove himself.
But they are still trapped in extreme path dependence because they are really, really successful - refutation = denial = murder of their lives over the past few decades.
Therefore, discussions usually end unpleasantly at this stage, and today was no exception. The old mother stormed out and locked herself in the temple, sulking and waiting for someone to comfort her.
Xie Jingxing went back to his room to sleep and recuperate. He would never admit that he was wrong. He was a reborn cheater!
I slept until the afternoon and sent a message to Song Anli, who was enjoying herself so much, telling them to come back in the evening. I was a bit tired of the conventional way of playing, so I decided to try something new tonight.
When Concubine Pei came back and saw that he had a bruise on the corner of his mouth and was gloating, she was inspired and had an idea to take the two of them to the northern island to find Yu Tong overnight.
"Our mother beat me, and she will beat me again tomorrow."
"I don't know anything. I didn't provoke her. What did you guys talk about last night?"
"Oh, forget it, just hit me if you want. Just think of her as making the decision for you. I have indeed been excessive recently."
"No, you guys should go to bed early. I can't sleep so I'm going to the beach to get some fresh air."
"You really don't have to follow me. I'm fine. I love you. There are bruises on my arms and legs. Don't rub them. You said so. I'm not unwilling. How could I tell Zhou Fenglan? I swear!"
Although I didn't get to try out any new things, I did get unexpected surprises by unlocking new scenes, and it effectively eased the conflicts between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Xie Jingxing enjoyed three days of comfort. He couldn't pretend to be so miserable any longer. If he continued, he would be really miserable.
After using all her skills to appease Yu Tong, who wanted to go home with him to plead with his old mother, the first wife was able to live in harmony with Song Anli and at least she would not sink them into the sea.
After all, if you can't understand the true principles of the Dao, the Empress Dowager knows a little bit about martial arts.
Xie Jingxing hurried home alone and walked into the ring actively, "Mom, come and beat me up, a real man should admit defeat, you can do whatever you want to me with my hundred-plus pounds of flesh, just frown, I'm not yours to raise!"
"Ask the doctor for a detailed physical examination report."
This time it was even less satisfying. Guan Ning frowned and carefully observed the scar on his son's chest.
Xie Jing Xing jumped up and down in pain to indicate that he was fine, with a strange satisfied smile on his face, looking very excited.
"Add another mental examination report." Guan Ning was worried, and her business views were expressed in a much softer tone. She suppressed her dissatisfaction and coaxed her son. As a mother, she really wanted to get closer to her son after not seeing him for a long time.
As a result, the little bastard became more and more arrogant after being spoiled in every way. That night, he found fault with the ghost and said that he could not feel the warmth, so he ran away again at night.
This time, Ms. Guan was really angry, and ordered all her old farmers to take turns guarding the airport on horseback and carrying bows, and to capture Xie Jingxing on the spot regardless of his life or death.
"It's so scary! My mom is trying to kill me. Luckily I ran fast. If I had been a little slower, the baby would have been born without a father!"
"It's all because of you. Stop pretending. Yu Tong and the other two felt so guilty that they compensated me for three days."
"How can I make it up to you? I swore not to tell you. Don't worry, I will never tell them. I swear! I swear to the lamp, if it goes out, I will turn it off!"
When Zhou Fenglan led Yuan Jin to the bed and the lights went out, Xie Jingxing was determined to break this oath even if he died. It was so exciting!
…………
"What are you doing to him? You have no shame at all!"
A small yacht slowly approached the farm's natural lake, and Yu Tong angrily got off the boat and cursed.
Zhou Fenglan adjusted the collar of his Hanfu and retorted, "What have you done to me? How interesting!"
"They are about to board the boat." Yuan Jin reminded weakly.
"Pah, just shoot him to death with one arrow and the world will be at peace. Do you just like being a masochist and being bullied by him?"
Yu Tong spat and quickened his pace: "No one is allowed to secretly send him food. Anyway, it's his fucking intention. Whoever dares to send him food will try it."
"Don't blame others for your mistakes. You should look at the owner before you beat the dog."
The two of them quarreled and walked away in a car. Song Anli and the other two, who were dressed in gorgeous Hanfu, followed behind them, feeling tearful and questioning their lives. Didn't we bear everything silently?
"Thank you, come down quickly and we won't shoot you. If you surrender you'll lose half the battle!" A dozen old farmers on horseback on the shore didn't have time to rush onto the boat, and they started laughing and teasing and shouting.
Xie Jingxing stood on the boat and raised his middle finger in response, then put on his flashy sunglasses and made a gesture like Captain Jack setting sail, steering the yacht back to the center of the lake.
He took a sip of wine leisurely: "Clouds are flying, flowers are blooming. Let's spend our time leisurely. This is life!"
By the evening, life became difficult, and the two wives, both husband and wife, took away the loving supplies that were sent to them in anger.
There were still two bottles of wine, a few slices of ham, and a palm-sized fish left on the boat, which were his entire day's catch yesterday.
Three days, during these three days he only had a good meal at noon and used up the energy immediately.
"Good night, thanks."
Three ghostly old farmers on the shore smiled at Xie Jingxing, who had swam ashore armed with weapons like a starving victim.
"I want to eat roasted lamb legs, I want to drink hot water, and I demand the treatment of an honorable surrender!"
The middle peasant smiled with his full white teeth: "If we were five women and two of us were pregnant, you would obviously be our conqueror and we would obey all your will. But unfortunately we are five strong men and you have no choice but to accept unconditional surrender."
"Can you please stop fighting? I need to see my mother. After all, I am your boss, right?"
In the early morning, a young man wearing a green Taoist crane cloak, with a pale face and looking a bit like a frail and gentle nobleman, strolled into the Taoist temple.
He stood beside his old mother who was kneeling in front of the Three Pure Ones and said, "I have figured it out."
"What did you figure out?" Guan Ning leaned over and lit a green lamp.
Xie Jingxing looked up at Sanqing: "I don't think I'm too philandering. This is one of my motivations. I can sleep with whoever I want."
"It sounds a bit simple, but also quite interesting, a symbol of some kind of power." Guan Ning commented.
"Indeed, so there are other things, such as setting a goal of becoming the richest man in the world."
Xie Jing Xing stated in the calmest and most indifferent state since his rebirth: "There are too many fools in this world. They need a decent capitalist to control the most resources."
Guan Ning stood up and was silent for a long time before he reached out and stroked his face: "Too great."
"I know a capitalist who builds rockets. He wants to lead humanity in exploring the world in the future. In fact, this is pretty unrealistic in nature, but he seems to firmly believe in his heart." Xie Jingxing complained.
Guan Ning smiled: "You look handsome in a crane cloak. Go to Qingcheng Mountain if you have a chance. Burn some incense for me."
"When will you return to China?" Xie Jingxing frowned.
Guan Ning shook his head: "Anytime is fine, but I don't want to go back for now. It's fun to compete with my daughter-in-law here, and it also gives me motivation to work. I will go back when you get married next year."
Xie Jingxing did not comment, that is, next summer, Yu Tong and Zhou Fenglan's due date is around April or May next year, and the wedding will be after that.
Three days passed, and in the blink of an eye, I had been in New Zealand for ten days. In the second half of the month, I would return to China to visit Yu Tong's home and then go back to my hometown in Northeast China. That's it for now.
Xie Jingxing said goodnight to Master Sanqing, then turned around and immersed himself in the scent of powder again.
This vacation was worthwhile. I probably won't need to be tied down by love anymore. Women are very obedient, unless he doesn't make money fast enough.
Just thinking about it gives me a lot of motivation. Well done, Xiao Xie, keep up the good work!
He said so to himself.
