I am doing well in the Siheyuan
Chapter 348 Lao Fei, It’s You
Hearing this, Ye Ming reached out and patted his shoulder, sighing:
"Old Fei, it really is you."
The foreigner who bowed to Ye Ming was named Fellowes. He was the butler of Ye Ming's adoptive parents. Speaking of Fellowes, many years ago he was the heir of a small noble family in the country of Fa. However, when Fellowes came of age, his family gradually declined.
Having lost his livelihood and without any special skills, Ferode could only start a wandering life. About thirty years ago, Ye Ming's adoptive parents, who were nobles of a country in the Philippines at that time, met Ferode wandering on the streets while traveling in Europe. Seeing Ferode's plight, Ye Ming's adoptive parents felt pity for him and gave him food and water.
Facing the kind-hearted adoptive parents of Ye Ming, Ferode knelt down without hesitation and begged them to take him in. Seeing that he was pitiful and that they were in need of a servant, Ye Ming's adoptive parents agreed to his request and took him back to the Philippines after the trip.
Ferode followed Ye Ming's adoptive parents to Fiji and became their servant. In order to repay their kindness, Ferode worked hard. In less than ten years, he was promoted from an ordinary servant to a housekeeper, and won the high trust of Ye Ming's adoptive parents.
Ye Ming trusted Felode very much. Therefore, when he inherited the family business, even though his adoptive parents had passed away, he still let Felode continue to serve as the housekeeper and handed over all the affairs of the family to him. When Ye Ming received the news from Longguo and decided to return to China to find his relatives, he asked Felode to look after the house while he boarded the flight back to Longguo.
Recalling everything with Felode, Ye Ming couldn't help but sigh softly. After sorting out his thoughts, he said to Felode: "Old Fei, didn't I ask you to look after the house? Why did you come to Dragon Country?"
Felode heard Ye Ming's question and replied, "Master, when you decided to go to Dragon Country, you told me that you would be back within half a year."
"But half a year has passed and you haven't come back yet."
"I was very worried about you. I waited for a few more months, but you still didn't come back. I had no choice but to come to Dragon Country to find you."
After hearing Felode's answer, Ye Ming thought about it and realized that it was true. He did tell Felode before he went to Longguo that he would be back within half a year. Alas, he was negligent. Poor Felode came all the way to Longguo to find him because he was worried about his safety.
Ye Ming immediately apologized: "After I returned to Dragon Country, I was careless and forgot to send you a message. I'm sorry, Lao Fei."
After hearing this, Ferold replied: "Master, it's okay. Now that I know you are safe, I feel relieved."
Hearing Ferold's words and seeing the fatigue on his face, Ye Ming couldn't help but reveal gratitude in his eyes.
......
After talking with Ferode for a while, Ye Ming took him into the courtyard. After entering the courtyard, Ye Ming asked Ferode to rest.
In the evening, Ye Ming asked Qin Jingru to prepare a table of sumptuous dishes to entertain Ferold.
In the courtyard's restaurant, Ye Ming and Felode sat down on either side of the dining table.
"Mr. Fei, how was your rest?" Ye Ming asked with a smile.
Hearing this, Ferold immediately replied: "Master, I rested well."
After that, he respectfully filled a glass of wine for Ye Ming. Ye Ming heard the answer and nodded slightly, "That's good."
"Mr. Fei, try Jingru's cooking. Let me tell you, her cooking skills are outstanding." Ye Ming said.
Ferold responded, "Okay, Master."
Afterwards, Ye Ming and Felode began to enjoy dinner. An hour later, they finished their meal and went to the living room to continue their conversation.
"Mr. Fei, how is the family business going?" Ye Ming sat on the chair, took a sip of tea, and asked Felode.
The "home" here refers to the business left by Ye Ming's adoptive parents in a distant African country. Hearing this, Fellow replied: "Master, the family business is going well at the moment."
Ye Ming nodded, "That's good." Then he asked, "Mr. Fei, how much money can the family mobilize now?"
Fellow thought for a moment and replied, "Master, after deducting necessary expenses, we can currently come up with about five million US dollars."
Ye Ming whispered, "In a few months it will be the 1970s. Although Dragon Country will not allow business at that time, I can set up overseas businesses. With five million US dollars, I can do a lot."
Thank you for your reading and support!
Thank you for the rewards and flowers!
Since his life in Kyoto stabilized, Ye Ming began to plan overseas investment. After all, during this special period, Dragon Country prohibited commercial activities.
Asking Zhong Yuemin and Zhang Haiyang to help collect antiques a few years ago was just an attempt by Ye Ming. Although Ye Ming has made plans for overseas investment, due to his special status in Longguo, he cannot invest in person.
Therefore, the overseas investment plan was temporarily shelved. However, the arrival of Butler Fellowes once again inspired Ye Ming to invest overseas.
Felode is not a Dragon, he can represent Ye Ming to invest overseas. Ye Ming is not worried about Felode's loyalty, because Felode is one of the people Ye Ming trusts most in this world.
Ferold came all the way to Longguo for Ye Ming's safety, which was enough to prove his loyalty to Ye Ming. Ye Ming looked at Ferold and said, "Mr. Fei, I have a plan and I need you to help me execute it."
After hearing this, Ferold immediately responded: "Master, please give me your orders, and I will do my best to complete them for you."
Ye Ming nodded slightly after hearing this and said, "Wait for me for a moment."
After that, he stood up and walked towards the bedroom. A few minutes later, Ye Ming came back with an investment plan in his hand.
Ye Ming handed the investment plan to Felode and said, "Mr. Fei, when you go back, register an investment company first, then take five million US dollars to the United States and several European countries, and invest in dozens of companies according to this investment plan."
In Ye Ming's investment plan, the companies that will be invested in are all the future Fortune 500 companies, such as Walmart, PepsiCo, Coca-Cola, KFC, BP, Boeing, Sony, etc.
Ye Ming did not directly acquire the two companies for a simple reason: he felt that managing the companies was too troublesome. Any of these companies would naturally grow into a future giant even if Ye Ming did not intervene in the management.
Sit back and enjoy the dividends, how worry-free. Why bother to keep in touch with Felode and guide the company's operations? It would be better to accompany Zhou Xiaobai and have a pleasant meeting with Zhou Xiaobai.
Although Ye Ming's five million dollars was spread among dozens of companies, he might only get a few percent or even less of the shares of these companies.
But if a few years later, as the value of these companies soars, Ye Ming's five million dollars will become tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of dollars.
This is just the result a few years later. If it were in the new century, Ye Ming's wealth would be an astronomical figure based solely on the equity of these companies.
At that time, Ye Ming's wealth could be described in one word: rich enough to rival a country.
