Siheyuan: Yan Jiekuang's carefree life

"He's in the villa!" Lou Xiao'e responded instinctively and asked, "Second brother, are you looking for him?!"

Lou Shiming said: "I just went to see the machines he has in his warehouse. Those machines are the most advanced machines currently. I want to keep them all. But the price of these machines is too high. At present, my company does not have that much money in its account. I just want to ask him if he can accept installment payment."

Lou Xiao'e thought for a moment and said, "I'll call him and ask for you." Then she picked up the phone on the table and dialed the number of Yan Jiekuang's villa. But the phone rang for a long time and no one answered. Lou Xiao'e frowned immediately and muttered to herself, "Where did this guy go?!"

"Knock! Knock! Knock!" Just as Lou Xiao'e put down the phone and was about to call again, there was a knock on the office door. Lou Xiao'e shouted, "Come in!"

Yan Jiekuang pushed the door open and walked in. Seeing Lou Shiming was there too, he immediately greeted him, "Second brother!"

Lou Xiaoe said: "I thought you went to the country of polar bears?!"

Yan Jiekuang asked: "What?! Are you looking for me?!"

Lou Xiaoe replied: "It's not me who is looking for you. It's my second brother who is looking for you."

Yan Jiekuang looked at Lou Shiming. Lou Shiming said hurriedly, "Jiekuang, the machines you got this time are the most advanced machines at present. I want to keep them all. But my company does not have that much money in its account. I want to discuss with you whether it is possible to pay in installments? But don't worry! I will definitely pay off all the money within a year."

Yan Jiekuang looked at Lou Xiaoe. Lou Xiaoe smiled and said, "This is your business. I won't interfere."

Yan Jiekuang said, "There is no problem with paying in installments. I agree."

Lou Shiming knew Yan Jiekuang would agree. But he didn't expect Yan Jiekuang to agree so readily. Seeing Lou Shiming in a daze, Yan Jiekuang couldn't help but call out twice. Seeing Lou Shiming come back to his senses, Yan Jiekuang reminded him: "Second Brother Lou, many of these devices are banned by the West. When you transport them back to China, be careful. Don't let certain people target you."

Lou Shiming laughed and said, "Jie Kuang, don't worry! I will have my own people transport these equipment. The things you worry about will not happen."

Yan Jiekuang said, "Just keep in mind the situation." Then Yan Jiekuang looked at Lou Xiaoe and said, "I gained a lot from my visit to America this time. Some of my friends on Wall Street told me that America is planning to acquire Xiaorizi. It's already in operation and it will probably produce results in one or two years at most. Ask someone to pay attention to the stock and futures markets over there. If possible, we can get involved. At least we need to take a bite out of Xiaorizi."

Lou Xiao'e said: "I will let the branch in Xiaorizi pay attention to this."

Yan Jiekuang said, "I have some things to deal with tomorrow. After that, I will go to the Polar Bear Country."

Lou Shiming immediately took out the letter he had written last night from his pocket and handed it to Yan Jiekuang, saying, "Jiekuang, this is a letter I wrote to my classmate. Thank you for your help!"

Yan Jiekuang took the letter, put it in his pocket, and said, "Second brother, don't worry! I will definitely help you get things done."

Lou Xiao'e said, "Jie Kuang, Mr. Rong wants to have afternoon tea with me this afternoon. Are you interested in going with me?!"

Yan Jiekuang asked: "Which Mr. Rong?!"

Lou Xiaoe replied: "It's the Mr. Rong you were thinking of."

Yan Jiekuang thought about it and said, "Okay! I'll go with you."

Since the matter had been settled, there was no need for Lou Shiming to stay any longer. After saying hello to Yan Jiekuang and Lou Xiaoe, Lou Shiming left Lou Xiaoe's office in a hurry.

After Lou Shiming left, Yan Jiekuang pulled out the chair opposite Lou Xiaoe and sat down, asking, "Why did the Rong family come to you?!"

Lou Xiaoe said: "It's probably the same as last time. They want us to invest money in the mainland."

Yan Jiekuang said: "Investing in mainland companies now probably won't make money. If we take this opportunity to buy some land, it's still okay."

Lou Xiao'e said: "The land is bought to build something on it. It cannot be left there abandoned forever."

Yan Jiekuang said: "The mainland is short of everything now. The only thing it lacks is people. In this case, we will build residential communities."

Lou Xiaoe pondered for a few seconds and asked, "You mean the urban village renovation?!"

Yan Jiekuang gave Lou Xiaoe a thumbs up and said, "Great!" Then Yan Jiekuang picked up a pen and a piece of paper, drew a sketch on the paper, and said, "It's only a matter of time before Magic City is developed. It's better to help them in times of trouble than to add icing on the cake in the future. Our Hualong Bank can cooperate with Magic City. We pay to buy their land, and then build houses or office buildings according to their plans. Ms. Chen can collect rent from Wangfujing. We can collect rent from Magic City."

Lou Xiaoe said: "If this is the case, our initial investment will be huge. But in the long run, this will be a good thing for our bank with more benefits than disadvantages." Then Lou Xiaoe sighed and said: "I am really a hard worker! You only need to talk. I have to run my legs off."

Yan Jiekuang said: "This can be done not only in China but also in Hong Kong. While the land price in Hong Kong is still affordable, we can take more land to build apartment buildings. Then we can rent them to the workplace elites. Even if we can't rent them out, renting them to our bank employees can be considered a benefit."

Lou Xiao'e rolled her eyes at Yan Jiekuang and muttered, "Is there still a house in Gangcheng that can't be rented out?!"

"Ding-ling-ling! Ding-ling-ling!" Just then the phone on Lou Xiao'e's desk rang. Lou Xiao'e picked up the phone and said, "I'm Lou Xiao'e, who is this?!"

"Lou Xiao'e! It's me! The Bao family is having a family dinner tonight. Come over here."

Lou Xiao'e replied: "I'm not free tonight, so I won't go over. And! Don't call me again in the future. I have nothing to do with your family anymore." After that, Lou Xiao'e hung up the phone.

Yan Jiekuang noticed that Lou Xiaoe looked a little strange and asked, "What's wrong?! Who's calling?!"

Lou Xiaoe replied, "Who else could it be?! My short-lived husband's mother. There's a family dinner at the Bao family tonight. I guess she wants to invite me over to help her out. After all, my short-lived husband is just the nephew of the Bao ship king."

Yan Jiekuang asked, "If you don't go, aren't you afraid that they will come and cause trouble for you?!"

Lou Xiao'e stared at Yan Jiekuang for a while and said, "Yan Jiekuang! I want to thank you. You gave me the confidence to break away from them."

Yan Jiekuang understood what was going on immediately and said, "You don't have to thank me! Thank yourself! If you don't have the ability, it will be useless no matter how much I help you."

Lou Xiao'e laughed. Her smile was very bright, as if the shackles on her body were finally released. Lou Xiao'e looked at the time and said, "It's getting late. I'll treat you to dinner!"

"Okay! I'll treat you to a good meal today!" Yan Jiekuang stood up. Lou Xiao'e took a meal card from the drawer and said, "I'm afraid you'll be disappointed. I'll treat you to a meal in the cafeteria today."

Yan Jiekuang shrugged noncommittally and said, "It seems that my plan today has failed!"
