Chapter 92 Which girl are you still close to?
Friday, October 15th.
The stock *ST Jintai has hit the daily limit for 11 consecutive days. Since the maximum fluctuation range for ST stocks is 5%, the overall increase is about 60%. After Ye Kai sold all his stocks, he received 500 million yuan in cash.
Currently, there aren't any suitable investment opportunities, so Ye Kai spent 120 million to buy 18 gold bars weighing 200 grams each, returned them to Shen Jiayi, and then pocketed the remaining 380 million. He planned to find a suitable storefront in Beijing and open "Dong Ge's Milk Tea" there.
After communicating with Director Jiang, Xixi's mother has made a choice.
Based on the current value and debt situation of Dong Ge's Milk Tea's core stores, Xixi's mother chose to acquire the ownership of four core stores in prefecture-level cities, as well as the founding store in Xinghua City and other small chain stores.
In subsequent expansion efforts, unless she invests the corresponding funds, she will no longer receive any equity in return.
Ye Kai and Shen Jiayi jointly acquired absolute ownership of eight other core stores in prefecture-level cities, as well as the smaller chain stores attached to them, and also enjoy absolute ownership of the brand "Dong Ge's Milk Tea".
In this way, everyone felt it was acceptable.
Within just a few months, Xixi's mother acquired a total of five core stores and nine small chain stores, making a fortune. Ye Kai and Shen Jiayi also benefited. This successful model was already running on its own, and if they wanted to continue expanding, they just needed to invest more money.
As for management and such, it's not really a difficult problem to solve right now.
With a relatively mature operating mechanism, Ye Kai and his team only need to continuously add new employees and managers, focusing on burning money.
……
Professor Xu has finally returned from the provincial capital.
She not only came back by herself, but also brought back two female college students. Both of them were quite good-looking, one with a round face and the other with a pointed chin.
"Who are these two?"
Ye Kai was somewhat taken aback when he saw the two girls.
Professor Xu has always been a loner, and he usually goes to the provincial capital or Beijing for meetings alone. Unexpectedly, he brought back two female college students from the provincial capital this time, which surprised Ye Kai.
"The province assigned me a project, and I'll also be mentoring two interns."
"Ye Kai, tidy up the rooms upstairs and make room for them in a bedroom. You can move to the third floor and make do for a few days."
Professor Xu introduced the two female college students to Ye Kai, and then began arranging accommodations for them.
"Okay."
"But I don't need to live on the third floor anymore. I'm going to the capital soon to handle some business matters."
"I expect to spend most of this summer vacation in Beijing."
Ye Kai had initially worried that Professor Xu would be bored at home alone after he went to Beijing, but now that he saw two female college students accompanying her on the project, he felt much more at ease.
Professor Xu is in good health, which puts Ye Kai at ease. His only worry is that she might be too bored at home alone and that she might eat very carelessly.
it's good now.
"Are we going to the capital again?"
"Did Jiajia go with them? What about Xiaoyu?"
Professor Xu wasn't particularly surprised to hear that Ye Kai was going to Beijing; he was just concerned about the whereabouts of his two girlfriends.
"Neither Jiajia nor Xiaoyu went over."
"Jiajia is currently cooperating with Weibo and making some adjustments in her professional direction, so she doesn't have time to go out and play for the time being. Xiaoyu has some things to take care of at home, and she also needs to do some preparatory work in advance. After all, the competition at Tsinghua University is very fierce, and if you want to stand out, you have to work hard."
Ye Kai explained.
"Why are all the girls I'm close to so outstanding?"
"I'm worried that they won't have much time to spend with you then."
Professor Xu has a very long-term perspective on this issue. She has no prejudice against Shen Jiayi and Chen Xiaoyu themselves, and even likes them very much. However, she is quite skeptical about their future lifestyle and feels that they may not be a good match for her grandson Ye Kai.
What a man needs is a partner who can live a domestic life. If he marries a wife who spends all day in the laboratory or is too busy with official business to be at home, wouldn't that be equivalent to a widowed marriage?
Why worry about things so far in the future?
"I don't even know what the future holds, so how can I think that far ahead?"
"Professor Xu, you don't need to worry about these things. Wouldn't it be better to focus on your project and publish a few more monographs?"
Ye Kai felt that his grandmother was worrying unnecessarily.
As a reborn person, there is no need to regret the mistakes made yesterday, nor is there any need to worry about what will happen tomorrow. Maintaining a carefree attitude will make life easier.
Let's not talk about this anymore.
"I brought you a gift, and also some for Jiajia and Xiaoyu. Give them to them when you have time."
Professor Xu is also a very open-minded person; otherwise, she wouldn't be continuing to explore her professional path at such an advanced age. She took out two identical bags from the side and handed them to Ye Kai.
"What's in here? Can I see it?"
Ye Kai was carrying two bags, which felt quite heavy, so he asked out of curiosity.
"Of course you can watch it, it's not like it's anything shameful."
"This is a brocade made using the traditional textile dyeing, weaving and embroidery techniques of the Li ethnic group. It is also a technique that has been included in the first batch of national intangible cultural heritage lists. Currently, there are fewer than 100 weavers who can master this technique, and fewer than 10 people who can master double-sided embroidery."
"I happened to be doing overseas promotion work in this area, so I was fortunate enough to get two sets."
Professor Xu gestured for Ye Kai to open the bag and reveal the gifts inside.
"This is a rare item!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Kai suddenly felt the weight of the two bags in his hands become even heavier.
He opened a bag, took out the fabric inside, and laid it flat on the bed to admire it.
While brocade may appear to be similar in appearance, the techniques passed down by different regions and ethnic groups vary considerably.
The Li people have a long history of traditional spinning, dyeing, weaving and embroidery techniques. As early as the Spring and Autumn Period, they used cotton fibers to weave clothes, which has a history of about 3000 years.
As can be seen from the patterns, there are many figures, animals and plants, which are simple and natural and full of ethnic characteristics. What is even more rare is that both sets of fabrics are made using double-sided embroidery techniques.
"Aren't there three sets?"
"Professor Xu, where is my share?"
Ye Kai was very satisfied after seeing it, and then he thought about whether he should also send a set to Miss Zhou, since she was the woman who was truly related to him.
For him, Shen Jiayi and Chen Xiaoyu can only be considered as backup forces at the moment.
"Which other girls are you close to?"
Professor Xu was quick-witted and immediately realized the key information behind Ye Kai's words.
