Wei Tao added some cash to maintain his shareholding ratio in Meituan at 22%.
Everyone else said that Lin'an Ma went to Songjiang and successfully obtained 23% of the share. It was a great success and Mr. Wei also opened the door to convenience.
In a situation where everyone is happy, Wang Xing needs more conveniences brought by capital, not only in terms of money, but also various hidden conveniences, which are also necessities for his development projects.
Don't look at the fact that one side only has 1% more share, and it is not obtained by one family, but the meaning is very different. Wang Xing hopes that Wei Tao can give this thin noodles, and also advised Lin'an Ma to go there in person. The other party is a cheerful person, Everyone picked up their glasses and had a drink. After drinking, there was no problem.
It feels like this. Lin'an Ma has a low profile, and every aspect of the trip to Songjiang is taken care of. Wei Tao is also very considerate, and the aura of Jianghu about him is also completely solid - talking to him has a sense of A hint of the Jianghu flavor will never be at a disadvantage.
There are also rumors that Lin'an Ma vomited three times after drinking in Songjiang, so Wei Tao is a pure drunkard. Drinking with Zhang Xuhao in the magic city is not about arguing, but about heaven.
Give him a drink, he will save his face and face, and if his body suffers a little, what does it matter? Compared with the changes in business, a drink can make a difference, that is, in the case of these reckless heroes, Only then could he take such a huge advantage.
Take a sip of wine with a comfortable expression, pick up a bite of food, chew big mouthfuls, a comfortable and satisfied smile on your face, and smack your lips, all showing the satisfaction of savoring life.
Fresh time on Anshun Street.
Old neighbors come to play in the chess and card room. To be honest, Zhou Xinglian has long stopped running the chess and card room for the purpose of making money. It is just for such a lively place. They are all acquaintances and live a large group life in an old-fashioned bungalow area. She likes it, so slowly After not caring about money, I have been able to accept the result of not making money calmly, bringing an atmosphere of laughter to everyone.
A large room was expanded at the back, and the garage in the front was divided into more detailed functional areas. When Wei Tao came here to have dinner, he didn't have to be crowded with everyone, and his daughter-in-law didn't have to eat in an environment full of smoke.
Looking at her son's happy face, Zhou Xinglian asked Cao Xiyu: "What good thing happened to him?"
Cao Xiyu, who came back with a silver medal in a big foreign competition, is now a legend in the domestic classical dance circle. She returned to family life, chose love and gave up her career, and was able to rely on her own abilities to correct her mistakes and turn dance into a It has become a part of daily life, and I can still stand on the podium of international competitions.
The fame between her and Wei Tao can be regarded as complementing each other. Neither of them accepted interviews. Both were once very popular, but they both returned to their family feuds.
Their temporary popularity will not affect their lives for too long. People have great forgetfulness, and the speed of news changes is enough for them to quickly return to calm after their short-term popularity, and there will be no more. Many people continue to pay attention to people like them who do not actively create news.
When eating in my mother's shop, people who are acquaintances, uncles, aunts, brothers, etc., nod, wave, or say hello if they are more familiar, the business atmosphere is still the same as before, and it is not because of Wei Tao's current identity has changed a lot. Maybe everyone respects him more, but this will not be particularly reflected in the level of acquaintance.
"I've made money." Cao Xiyu served Wei Tao a bowl of soup.
Zhou Xinglian didn't ask anymore. He was very innocent now. It didn't mean much whether he asked or not. He had long been unable to understand his son's business.
After several years of contact, although Uncle Leng felt that he could not understand Wei Tao at all, he was no longer as cautious as before, and his words and actions were not as restrained as before.
"I heard that Mr. Ma from Alibaba is here?" Uncle Leng asked. From his perspective, this boss who always talks about his inspiring past is very admirable. Knowing that Wei Tao can do things with him Business, I was really curious in my heart, so I spoke.
"Well, let's talk about some things. They want to invest in a project, and I will hold a larger share in it. This time, I will invest less and give them a larger share." Wei Tao raised his head, picked up his wine glass, and followed Uncle Leng clinked the glasses and took another sip of wine.
Because of their mother, they have feelings for each other. As they get older, they accompany each other. This kind of companionship is something that children cannot give.
Wei Tao thinks that those people who diss the old people should be divided. Some people are just not as good as their parents and do not have the ability to fight, but they will not bring down their parents. As children, they should stay with their parents and be a weak person. Such people It cannot be called gnawing on the elderly. The companionship they bring to their parents is something that successful children cannot give them anyway. From this point of view, it is not necessarily determined who is filial.
For Uncle Leng, Wei Tao has a little more affection between relatives. Compared with before his rebirth, after all, he spends most of the year in Songjiang, watching the life between his mother and Uncle Leng, so this affection will gradually change. As a result, he might not be so patient with others, but when he asked, Wei Tao was still willing to explain it in detail.
There were no outsiders in the restaurant where we were eating, and Wei Tao also knew that the other party might not understand his answer well, so he explained it in detail again: "Whether I give you this face or not, it won't delay anything. Drinking is just superficial. We are all superficial friends. There still has to be an exchange of benefits, and since I have received satisfactory exchange terms, I am naturally happy to give them face, and everyone is happy."
Can you be unhappy? Not only does he have some entry-level qualifications, but in terms of biomedicine, it is still only the stage that everyone is interested in. Wei Tao can get some qualifications to participate in projects brought by Alibaba Sequoia and other capital. This is just additional. What really makes him happy is this. The subject of an 'interest exchange' - he purchased some shares of Dianping from Sequoia at a relatively fair price.
In the future, if the two companies merge, what they lost this time will be recovered exponentially, and Wei Tao will also get the ticket to participate in the next round of financing of Dianping. After the merger of the two companies in the future, the real When the value takes off, the current value is just a competition of vision in the eyes of the elders.
The money is not much. Even though it costs a lot more than angel investment, in the face of the value after the IPO, big capital is a long-term operation, so the extra money is nothing.
Under the premise that money is nothing, some investments cannot be made with money alone. Everyone is replacing each other. It is not only an exchange, but also a potential cooperation model where you are one of us. If you have it once, there will be a second time. In the future, everyone It is possible to become a partner. If there are any projects that one person cannot handle with the resources, if two or three companies come together, the resources and connections behind them will become the value reflection of who takes the lead in each cooperation.
Seeing that her son was happy, Zhou Xinglian thought for a while and took out two bottles of beer to drink with her son. Cao Xiyu didn't disappoint, and took a bottle of rio pre-mixed wine, sat there, and clinked glasses. It was the same atmosphere, otherwise It doesn't make sense to sit there.
When they were like this, some regular customers who came and went were filled with envy. It became difficult for the elderly and children to meet each other at home. It was even more difficult to sit together and talk well. They were still happily sitting together drinking. Even if It's the New Year, so we just clink glasses and rely on the programs on TV to extend the meal time. Otherwise, if a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner is really a family sitting there to eat, it might just be taking care of the children on the table. The main thing was that the rest was finished in ten or eighty minutes. Most of the dishes for a large table were left, and the next few days were spent reheating one meal and the next.
Wei Tao acknowledges the convenience brought by the 4G era of smartphones, but many of these conveniences have detracted from some behaviors with established values, which Wei Tao thinks has a negative impact. A friend in the circle of friends ate first, and Wei Tao was very disgusted. Where to go to eat something or experience some projects, but he hadn’t enjoyed it yet. He was taking photos with his mobile phone. It was obvious that the hot food was delicious and fragrant, and he was immediately moved. Tachyon's feeling. As a result, I took pictures first and showed them to my circle of friends first. At that moment, most of the impact of delicious food was insignificant.
However, there is an advantage to eating first in this circle of friends, that is, during the New Year's Eve, when most people in the family will eat New Year's Eve dinner, there will not be so many people gathering together, and they can't eat anymore, so they don't think much about it. When cooking, just think of three or four dishes.
It was this group of friends who ate first, which preserved the richness of the New Year's Eve dinner. Twelve dishes, fourteen dishes, all kinds of dishes were served in turn. Many people who were unwilling to spend a lot of money on this day found a new reason to spend a lot of money.
Now everyone in Anshun Street knows that there is a big shot in this street. If anything happens on the street and they can't find anyone else, they all come to Zhou Xinglian to find Wei Tao. If nothing else, the road of this street has been restructured. Mr. Wei paid for the paving, greening, and some public facilities to be repaired for everyone.
In the past, people put broken chairs and sofas downstairs, and then they carried small horses and made some places where they could play chess and poker. Now the tables, chairs, seats, and cold drink stalls are standard. If the old people feel cold, they only need to bring a cushion down. Can.
This is the advantage of having a big boss. Zhou Xinglian is a person who doesn't care about doing business. It's not because she is rich, but because she has a carefree personality. She won't care about just a few cents. When a regular customer comes, she pretends to be someone else. Vegetables and other items are all picked up.
Zhou Xinglian's reputation in this street is good, and with a son like Wei Tao, everyone can't help but envy him when chatting with him on weekdays. If Wei Tao goes out to talk about things for a while, it's fine and he's not in Songjiang. As long as he's in Songjiang, it's okay. I always come to eat this meal with my mother in the evening, not just one or two days, but this has been the case in recent years. How could I not be envied by the older people who come and go?
The son can sit and drink with his mother. The scene is such that even though he knows that he will be asked to drink when he comes in and is embarrassed to sit down, he still has to go around and take a look. I am envious. Xiao Zhou (Sister Zhou) is such a blessing. Although when I was young, It’s a bit tough, it’s not easy to raise a child alone, but now, I’ve started to enjoy the blessings early.
After drinking two glasses of wine, snowflakes were falling outside and it was not too cold. Wei Tao and Cao Xiyu put on their thick clothes with great interest and went for a walk in the snow at night.
Zhou Xinglian and Uncle Leng also simply tidied up and went home.
Nowadays, Anshun Street Xianshiguang is basically managed by the Pang family and their daughter. There is no shortage of people doing stocking and selling here. This is the origin of Xianshiguang, and it is the place where the company's 'Old Queen' lives. I can see Aunt Lian every day, and I can always see Mr. Wei. Although the distance between them is too big and there is no overlap, everyone has the idea of being closer to the water, first comes first, so the people here are never here. There is no shortage of employees who are quick and capable, but there is also no shortage of employees who work hard and are not afraid of working overtime.
In the evening, there are young people on duty all night, which also allows some customers who like to play mahjong regardless of time to play here without worrying about the time.
There was food and drink available. Zhou Xinglian never cared about what the children were eating and drinking. Every employee had free access to fruits and drinks, even cigarettes. Sometimes when she went to the warehouse on the fifth floor of Anshun Street and saw a lot of cigarettes piled outside, she was From time to time, she would take ten or twenty items and put some of them in the store when she came back. She would never be stingy in providing these working children with some good cigarettes, and occasionally would give them boxes of cigarettes. Put it in your pocket.
Happiness that she had never experienced before in her life was changing the future that Zhou Xinglian could not even imagine. At one time, she thought that if she could provide her child with education and find him a job, it would be complete; later she thought that if she could provide her child with education and find him a job, If your child gets a house, you will have no regrets.
When she first bought that small bungalow, she had thought that even if it was close, it would still be her own home. One day, if her child got married, she would tidy up the big house and let her son get married. She would be able to live in the small house, and the cold spots would be cold spots. Who told the family to have such conditions?
The life he lives now is completely unimaginable. Even when he bought the house on the second floor opposite, Zhou Xinglian found it incredible. Every week from now on, his son would deposit 20,000 yuan into his bank card. Then It was even more dreamy. She really didn’t know how to spend the money. Her reaction at the time was all subconscious. She saved it for her son in case of emergencies. Now her son makes a lot of money. If business goes bad that day, she will have to pay for it. Well, there is also one here, which can at least solve the urgent need.
Later, there was No. 1 Anshun Street, there was Anshun Group, there was Wei Tao, a well-known businessman in Songjiang, and...
Zhou Xinglian knew that his son might never use the money in his bankbook, but did he have any money to spend?
I've always liked gold, why not buy a bracelet?
Well, bracelets, necklaces, earrings, rings, gold bars, gold ingots, and gold longevity peach ornaments. Still need to buy it? To use it, you still need to buy a better jewelry box. As for the gold bars, gold ingots, and golden peaches, you should put them in your son's safe, because you are afraid of losing them at home.
As for clothes, she didn’t even use her son this time. With so many juniors around her, she never missed anything she bought. Many clothes have not yet had their tags removed and have not been worn yet.
cosmetic? There are several sets of cosmetics at home that are said to cost thousands of dollars. Even the facial cream that my mother applies after washing her face every day is said to cost more than a thousand dollars.
Dyeing your hair and styling it? Not to mention Cao Xiyu, Guan Jinyue and other children, they regularly take themselves to the best barber shop in Songjiang. There are several cards inserted in their bags and wallets. Zhou Xinglian didn't know how to use them at first, but now he knows.
The membership card of that barber shop has a deposit balance of more than 10,000 yuan all year round.
Gas cards, every once in a while, ten thousand yuan will be deposited into it.
Well, there was a Bora parked at the door. Zhou Xinglian couldn't drive or learn to drive. She never thought that one day she would own a car. It didn't matter that she couldn't drive, Uncle Leng could.
Car insurance maintenance and some basic questions? Is it a problem? There is no need to call. The kid Lu Jiang threw a business card in the store, and Uncle Leng also recorded the phone number on it. Lu Jiang said that there were any problems with the car, including some scratches in traffic accidents or illegal deductions, maintenance, etc. Not to mention maintenance, just go to this store directly, you just need to call, no one needs to go there, someone will take care of everything.
Zhou Xinglian now enjoys a life every day that she never dared to imagine ten thousand times in the past. Wei Tao also created the most comfortable living atmosphere for her based on her mother's personality.
There is no pressure, don’t take on too much, and don’t need to think too much. You can be carefree all day long, and there are no unexpected events. Year after year, day after day, the small circle of life is constant, and there won’t be much change. She doesn't need to think about how to deal with things.
When I get home, I wash some fruits. Zhou Xinglian’s habit is not divided into living room and bedroom. Lying in bed and watching TV is the most comfortable. Now I am used to it. I take a hot shower before going to bed. The home is well heated and the temperature is 2 in winter. It's 14 to 15 degrees Celsius. It's most comfortable to take a bath and sleep.
tomorrow?
Anything to think about tomorrow? Just sleep until you wake up naturally.
Now?
I was drinking with my son tonight and delayed watching the TV series. One episode is missing and I have to watch the rerun tomorrow. Well, how about letting Xiao Yu (Pang Chunyu, the lame girl in the store) find it for herself on the computer and make up for this episode.
In the past, I was worried about electricity consumption, so I would turn off the lights and watch TV. Now I know to turn on the bedside lamp, lean on the bedside, watch TV intently, and follow the plot on TV to let my emotions rise.
Life is like this for her, going smoothly, with a little bit of nothing to do, no financial pressure, no life pressure, no pressure at all.
………………
"This Chinese New Year, find a time in the first month for the two families to get together."
He spoke ordinary words in a normal tone, but the actions that followed gave Cao Xiyu an unexpected surprise.
There was no wind, only snow. Under the street lamp, it looked like a movie or TV show. He knelt down on one knee, took out a jewelry box from his pocket, and opened it. The price of a diamond ring would not make Cao Xiyu give up the diamond ring he carries every day, under the street lamp. , reflecting a little light.
Everything fell into place, and Cao Xiyu had long since accepted everything as it came naturally. Occasionally watching romantic idol dramas, the idea that I wanted a romantic proposal and romantic wedding did not remain in my mind. Really, that was not what Wei Tao wanted. It's the team he found and designed every romantic link.
Cao Xiyu didn't care about similar vanity. Of course, if you have it, you can keep it as a souvenir, but if you don't have it, it doesn't matter. On the contrary, it was Wei Tao's sudden little romance at this moment that really moved her. After all, this was what he thought of and what he wanted to do, which was very important.
There were no tears of joy, but there were a few tears in her eyes. She smiled, knelt down, hugged the man in front of her, and whispered in his ear: "Husband, I do."
After a few minutes of romance, the two were still in the same state as before, holding hands. Cao Xiyu's hand was grasped by Wei Tao's and inserted into his coat pocket. They walked slowly in the snowy night and looked at the riverside. night view.
What you see or feel is not important.
The important thing is that two people are together. Some male and female friends seem to be together every day, under the same roof, but you do your thing and I do mine. Do you ask them if they have any communication during the day? Maybe looking at each other while eating is all communication.
Wei Tao and Cao Xiyu both like this feeling. They don't need to talk about anything, but they know very clearly that at this moment, walking in the snowy night, they only have each other. This is the time that belongs to the two of them alone. Everything you do has meaning.
There is no need to go back. After shopping, Han Tiesheng will drive over and park on the roadside.
Han Tiesheng, who has settled in Songjiang, has his daughter discharged from the hospital and going to a nearby key primary school. Everything is fine at home, his life has become infinitely better, and his future is bright. He is working more seriously. Deep down in his heart, some people have vowed not to go. The shackles of transgression are gradually opening up on Wei Tao. If Mr. Wei needs it, I can do it...
Side entrance, first floor.
Lu Jiang was in Lao He's room, and the two men were drinking.
Lu Jiang got married and only took three days off. The wedding was held grandly in his hometown, and Wei Tao also supported it.
The entire marriage is as Lu Jiang originally planned. His wife will take care of the family at home and leave him alone.
The money that should be given to the family is not a penny, and when it is time to have sex with your wife and children, I am not emotionless, but don't ask and don't care about what I am doing outside.
A man like Lu Jiang is indeed only suitable for this kind of marriage. The boss here has Han Tiesheng with him in the evening, so there is nothing wrong with him. He is not in a hurry to go home. He goes downstairs to drink with his master He Shengli. After drinking too much, he can sleep on the sofa next to him. one night.
When Wei Tao came back, Lao He was beating Lu Jiang with a cane, cursing: "Go home quickly."
Wei Tao and Cao Xiyu smiled, walked into the elevator and went straight upstairs without saying anything.
Lao He and Han Tiesheng looked at each other and nodded. The latter drove home and came back tomorrow morning.
Lu Jiang was muttering. Han Tiesheng wanted to take him home. With a wave of his hand, Lu Jiang walked to the side of the road and stopped a taxi. He knew the boss's rules and did not drive after drinking. Taking a taxi from here to home would cost 20 seconds. He didn't care about the more than ten yuan.
Lao He closed the side door and walked slowly towards the side door of the building to go back to the house. When he opened the door, he turned around and glanced at the window on the third floor of the old building opposite. He knew that even if those eyes were no longer behind the window, there would still be something there. There are several cameras facing the back door, the side elevator on the fifth floor and the platform elevator on the sixth floor.
"This bastard doesn't want to work as a newsstand anymore. He spends all his time as a moth in the house."
Li Fengshou, who no longer looks like a middle-aged and elderly man, is now an unshaven, decadent man who has nothing to do all day long. He is either playing poker and mahjong with a bunch of gangsters downstairs, or staying at home for several days without coming out or working. The neighbors around him Everyone knows that there is such a guy. According to him, his parents died in an accident. The money and compensation left behind are enough for him to live, so why do he still work?
With such a disguised identity, he regained a foothold on Anshun Street and lived on the third floor of the old white brick building behind the primary school, diagonally facing the back door of No. 1 Anshun Street. According to his own words, the big house at home was sold and it was too big for him to live in. This small house is quite good. He rented it for two years and bought it after he got used to it.
No one knows when he goes out to play, and no one knows when he is lazy at home.
He Shengli knew very well that basically the boss was not in Songjiang. He was drinking, playing cards and running around all day long. In Songjiang, Li Fengshou was lazy at home and would go out every two or three days. If it was spring, summer, or autumn, he would find a few people downstairs to play poker under the street lights. Sometimes he would even go to the back door to play under the street lights. Money size fast ten (how poker is played).
In winter, I am a lazy person. I occasionally go downstairs to buy something, or just buy cigarettes and wine. I live a leisurely life. Downstairs, facing Anshun Street, there is a barbecue restaurant, a snack bar, and a breakfast shop. They are all neighbors, and it is possible to walk there. It only takes less than three minutes to make a phone call and they will deliver the food.
Wei Tao, who has never been stingy with money, collects 50,000 yuan from Li Feng every month. From the time he found the other party until now, he has never used him once. However, this money is not late every month and is delivered three times in advance. God delivered it to him.
As for Li Fengshou's waiter's house on the third floor, apart from Wei Tao and others, only Yan Bo has been there and occasionally drinks there.
Centered on No. 1 Anshun Street, or more precisely, centered on Wei Tao, there is a small ecological chain on Anshun Street.
He Shengli didn't want a lot of money, so he just took the money from the old janitor and night shift every month. It wasn't pretentious, it really couldn't be spent. He also knew that Wei Tao bought himself a high amount of commercial pension insurance and medical insurance, and also There is a fund from a law firm that says that when you reach the age of fifty, you can receive a sum of money every month.
He didn't quite understand, but he didn't refuse. He didn't know the difference between this money and pension insurance. Xu Lang and Han Tiesheng both told him that you don't need to understand.
I usually don’t spend much money on eating and drinking. I don’t need to buy cigarettes or alcohol. Occasionally I want to buy some. I look back at the cigarettes and alcohol in the lockers in the house, and then look at the corner where the nanny upstairs helps to sort them out every day. refrigerator.
He Shengli used to be a person who had no concept of money in the army and felt that he would dedicate his life to the army.
Later, when he returned home, the heroic man was stumped by a penny, and his desire for money turned into hatred.
Now he has entered into the "money is useless" lifestyle again, and he has not rejected the future that Wei Tao left for him. Now, he has increased his monthly salary according to his previous share, and continues to mail it to the homes of his comrades who sacrificed their lives.
Back in the house, He Shengli turned on the surveillance equipment in the house and took a look at the real-time pictures of some public areas on the fifth, sixth and seventh floors. He was also looking for something to do for himself.
The entire security equipment upstairs was first done by the people from Jinfeng Security Company. He came and sorted it out again. When Han Tiesheng came over, he set it up again from beginning to end. Entering the fifth, sixth and seventh floor areas without interest, unless the level far exceeds these three parties, and if they are really that level, even if Han Tiesheng and He Shengli are by Wei Tao's side, it will be difficult to protect him.
After entering the room, he simply tidied up the table and carried the garbage out. He first went to the mailroom of the security room at the gate, smoked a cigarette and chatted with a few security guards, and then went to the security lounge on the other side of the first floor to collect all the items in his room. A large piece of untouched pork head and a large piece of sauced beef were thrown on the table: "Brothers will get hungry in a while and come to the kitchen. Let's heat it up ourselves and eat something hot while working the night shift."
