Three days later.
Shen Xinghai returned to the Magic City and reported to Tang Song and Yuan in the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
Tang Songyuan asked with concern: "How is it going? Have all the things at home been taken care of?"
Shen Xinghai said: "It's okay. My parents are very open-minded and support me starting to work early."
Tang Songyuan smiled and said: "It seems that I misunderstood you. Originally, I thought you would have to rest for at least ten days and a half."
"We have just completed the registration of the company. I expect to invest one billion yuan in the initial stage. If necessary, I will make additional investment in the future. The main business is finance, investment and asset management."
"I'm going to let you choose your own office location. What do you think?"
Shen Xinghai was stunned for a moment and did not answer immediately. He thought about it seriously and said:
"I'm not too familiar with Magic City, so I need to investigate before I can decide."
Tang Songyuan hummed, sighed and said, "Actually, I planned to choose the World Financial Center at the beginning. After all, the conditions here are very good and there are many conveniences for doing finance."
"But then I looked it up and found out that this place has a Japanese background, so I instinctively disliked it."
"Leaving this to you can be regarded as giving you great autonomy. I will support you wherever you like."
They all said they supported it, but even though he had made his attitude clear, Shen Xinghai didn't understand what he meant.
We need to avoid Japanese backgrounds and have conveniences, etc...
So he nodded and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Tang, I will choose carefully."
Tang Songyuan added: "Someone once told me that to become a super rich man like Musk or Bezos, you not only need to be able to make money, but also learn to spend money reasonably."
“To put it in simpler terms, it’s about using good steel on the blade.”
Shen Xinghai nodded in agreement and said: "I think the most important reason why Musk and others are successful is that they maximize the value of wealth."
"For the same one million, some people may use it for consumption, some may invest in future potential stocks, and some may invest in real estate and other physical assets,"
"But in my opinion, Musk and Bezos's smartest investment is to spend money to buy lessons."
Tang Songyuan was very interested in this statement, and he motioned to Shen Xinghai to continue.
Shen Xinghai said without hesitation: "They think that if they spend millions to buy a lesson, then the lesson is worth millions, or even more expensive than this price."
"As Mr. Ma of Ali said, invest today in order not to invest tomorrow."
"In their view, problems that can be solved with money are not problems. The most difficult thing is that you have no money and no ability to make money. This is the most terrible thing..."
Many people believe that early-stage companies should save all expenses, and it is best to operate at zero cost.
But the views of the Tang, Song and Yuan Dynasties were the opposite.
He believes that money must be spent when it is time to spend it, and it must be spent generously.
Instead of scrimping on some small-dollar projects, it's better to take a big gamble on a large-dollar project.
Because only by succeeding in big projects can you have more resources and opportunities.
If successful, the reward will be hundreds, thousands or even tens of thousands of times.
Even if they failed, they would have to start over again. Tang, Song and Yuan also had the capital and ability to start over again.
What Shen Xinghai said coincided with his ideas.
Tang Songyuan was in a good mood. He smiled and asked, "In your cognitive circle, are there any better projects you would recommend?"
Shen Xinghai said frankly: "I just came back and I am a little out of touch with the market. I don't know enough yet and I am not specific enough."
“It takes some time and manpower.”
Tang Songyuan nodded and said: "It doesn't matter, I'm not in a hurry."
"And if you have someone you trust, such as a partner from your previous team, who is willing to continue working with you, you can come over and get favorable treatment."
"Thank you very much, Mr. Tang!" Shen Xinghai responded happily.
Tang Songyuan said again: "You don't have a place to live in Magic City yet. I will take you to buy one in a while."
Shen Xinghai said with emotion: "Ah, this... Mr. Tang really doesn't need this, I've already rented an apartment,"
"If you buy a house, after the company gets on the right track and generates profits, you will reward me and I will not refuse."
Tang Songyuan laughed and said: "That's okay. When the company starts, I will leave all the power to you. Everything is difficult at the beginning. If you need anything, call me anytime."
The new company was named Songyuan Capital by Tang Songyuan, which was simple and convenient, but also had certain connotations.
The Song Dynasty was one of the dynasties with the most developed industry and commerce in history, and the Yuan Dynasty was the dynasty with the largest territory.
After Shen Xinghai left, Tang Songyuan sat in his office, observing the working conditions of everyone in the company through the door, while using his ability to control animals.
When returning from the sea, Tang, Song and Yuan selected twenty sea fish and asked them to continue to help him find the remains of the sunken ship.
Get ready for your next trip to sea.
But there is no good harvest yet.
However, the remains of two sunken ships were discovered, but they were not of salvage value.
Tang, Song and Yuan were not in a hurry, and just continued to search slowly.
Those twenty fish were not particularly rare fish, and it would not be a pity if they died after more than ten days.
In the afternoon, Yang Sijia went to the office to find Tang Songyuan and reported to him:
"Mr. Tang, we have basically reached an agreement with the delegation headed by Boss Chen from Jiguzhai. They are willing to buy our 23,000 pieces of sea-sourced porcelain at an average price of 50,000 yuan per piece."
50,000 yuan per piece, 23,000 pieces, and the transaction volume reached 115 million.
This is considered the largest transaction order of Yang Sijia since she started working.
Tang Songyuan hummed and said, "I promised Chen Sinian privately that I would give them a 5% discount after we negotiate a deal."
"The total is over 50 million. When settling the bill, you helped me cash it in for him."
Yang Sijia responded: "OK, I understand Mr. Tang."
"In addition, I have also contacted the staff of SOtheby'S and ChrisStie'S today. Does Mr. Tang need to talk to them in person?"
Tang Songyuan frowned slightly and suddenly asked, "What does Mr. Yang usually do after get off work or on holidays?"
This question was somewhat private, which made Yang Sijia stunned for a moment. After a while, she responded:
"I usually go back to the apartment to rest after get off work and do some company plans and the like,"
"On weekends, I usually go shopping, drink coffee, go to art exhibitions, listen to concerts, or attend literary salons held by some friends."
When she spoke, there was no sudden acceleration of her heartbeat, which proved that she was not lying or talking nonsense.
Tang Songyuan nodded slightly and said somewhat directly:
"Maybe Mr. Yang has a lifestyle that he pursues personally, but I don't like the way he speaks in English at work when it's not necessary,"
Yang Sijia was suddenly alert, stood up with some fear and said: "Don't worry, Mr. Tang, from now on, nothing like this will happen in the company from me on down..."
Tang Songyuan smiled and nodded: "Go to work!"
