Rebirth 1983: Starting from taking back the family property.

Chapter 692 Oil Price Soars
Since the tension between Iraq and Kuwait, everyone thought that oil prices would rise, and everyone rushed to buy crude oil futures. And as Nie Zhan expected, crude oil prices began to rise at the end of July.

Zong Shimeng called Lu Jiaxin and said, "Jiaxin, oil prices have risen again today. I have already bought two million green coins. Don't you want to buy any?"

Crude oil has been rising just like gold in the past few years, and she was itching to invest all her liquid funds.

Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "I can't buy it now even if I want to."

It's boring to buy 3-5 million, but you can't buy more. Everyone knows that crude oil will rise, and if more people enter the market, you won't be able to buy it in the later stage. Fortunately, Nie Zhan listened to the advice and bought 100 million green coins of crude oil futures, and he made a lot of money.

It’s a pity for Zong Shimeng.

Lu Jiaxin didn't regret it, and said with a smile: "It's impossible for me to make all the money, then I really would become the daughter of the God of Wealth."

Zong Shimeng laughed out loud: "I heard that the stores you opened in the mainland are doing very well. You didn't buy futures, but you can make money in other places just as well."

Lu Jiaxin said: "This is just the beginning. Once the stall is set up, the money will roll in."

She doesn't have big ambitions, just managing the companies she has. She doesn't want to be the richest person, she just wants to live a comfortable life with money and leisure. Life is short, so she has to enjoy it. She doesn't want to die early from exhaustion and illness like in her previous life, leaving too many regrets.

Zong Shimeng suddenly asked, "Jia Xin, do you think my beauty salon can be opened in the mainland in the future?"

Lu Jiaxin groaned and said, "Of course you can! Women dress to please themselves, and those wealthy women or wives will definitely be willing to invest in themselves. But I think your beauty salon can add new projects, such as setting up a confinement center, which is very lacking in the mainland now."

"Postpartum care center?"

Lu Jiaxin hummed and said, "The current policy in the mainland is that each family can only have one child. The conditions are very good, and they don't want their mother-in-law or mother to take care of them during the confinement period. Going to a confinement center is their best choice."

Of course, even after a few years, the services provided by confinement centers will only be enjoyed by wealthy women, but the money made by them will be from these wealthy people.

Zong Shimeng thought this was a new idea and she needed to think about it carefully. She treated the beauty salon as a career and operated it seriously, not as she told Hu Zhifeng, just for a place to communicate. With her careful management, the beauty salon is now doing very well, especially the medicinal bath, which is praised by everyone who has taken it. However, the number of medicinal baths is limited and there are few places available. According to Lu Jiaxin, this is also hunger marketing.

Crude oil prices kept rising, from 7 green coins per barrel at the end of July to 21 green coins per barrel in mid-October, an increase of more than 10%. Everyone made a lot of money, and Nie Zhan also made more than 46 million green coins.

Nie Zhan said he would transfer 200 million to Lu Jiaxin: "I was only going to buy 50 million, but you insisted on buying 100 million, so I'll give you half."

Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "You were originally planning to buy 100 million green coins, but you hesitated because I didn't buy them. You shouldn't give me half of them."

"We are husband and wife, why do you have to be so clear about this?"

Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "Let's put it this way. If you want me to transfer 200 million to spend, I will definitely take it. I just happen to need to buy a lot of things recently."

The wedding will be held in two months, and many things need to be prepared. In particular, the wedding will be a grand one, inviting relatives, friends, partners, government officials, and business celebrities. One hundred and sixty tables are tentatively scheduled for the banquet, but fortunately, this matter is handled by the man, so she doesn't have to worry about it. She is responsible for the wedding dress and the dresses for the best man and bridesmaid, and the wedding process is handed over to the wedding company, and the process is monitored by two secretaries. Oh, there is one more thing she is watching, Nie Zhan's house in Repulse Bay is redecorated as a wedding room. Nie Zhan smiled and apologized: "My bad, my bad, this money is for me to buy you wedding things."

Lu Jiaxin was also joking: "Use this money to continue buying! The situation is so tense now, the price of oil will definitely rise again. It would be a pity to withdraw now."

"I'll listen to you." Nie Zhan said.

The next day at noon, Nie Zhan received a call from Nie Jingwen. Hearing that Nie Manlin was missing, he frowned and asked, "What does missing mean?"

Nie Jingwen said that Nie Manlin went out early yesterday morning and said she was going shopping, but she didn't come back at night. I thought she was too excited to play outside, but when my aunt cleaned her room this morning, she found that there were a lot fewer clothes in the closet.

Zhang Lanlan got the news and went into the room to see that not only her clothes were missing, but also her jewelry. She reacted quickly and immediately asked someone to check and found that Nie Manlin flew to Bangkok yesterday afternoon.

Nie Zhan asked, "Didn't grandpa seize her passport? How did she leave the country?"

Nie Jingwen was very depressed: "She reported the loss and applied for a new passport. She did all these things without letting the assistant and the driver know. I don't even dare to tell my grandfather now, for fear that he would be angry."

Nie Zhan felt that there was nothing he couldn't say: "There's no need to hide it. Grandpa knows her better than us, and if he knew, he would just scold her. The problem now is what to do with the children? Grandpa is so old, and the child is delicate and cries a lot. If she stays with Grandpa all the time, it will affect her."

Nie Jingwen said, "Grandpa likes Nina very much. He leaves her with him during the day and she lives in our building at night. There are nannies and aunties to take care of her, so it should be fine."

They have three children of their own, and Zhang Lanlan has been busy helping Nie Zhan with his wedding recently. They can hand over the children to the nanny and aunt! They have been taking care of them these days, so Nie Jingwen thinks it should be no problem.

Nie Zhan said: "This is not a long-term solution."

Nie Jingwen asked: "Do you have a better idea?"

He knew that Nie Zhan would not take the child. With Lu Jiaxin's temper, there was no way she would help raise the child, so he didn't even have the idea.

Nie Zhan wanted to send someone away, but he knew it was impossible. First, Mr. Nie liked Nina and would not agree, and second, the Nie family could not afford to lose this person. So if he wanted to send someone away, he had to do it secretly and only abroad.

Nie Zhan said coldly: "Freeze her card, and don't give her the living expenses from the family fund this year. If she runs out of money, it will naturally come back."

Nie Jingwen said that this would require the old man's approval.

Nie Zhan said: "If he disagrees, Nina doesn't need to worry about it, just let him take care of it himself. If he wants to do it, then he can do it himself, don't throw the burden to us."

When he abandoned him in his infancy, Mr. Nie should have imposed economic sanctions. If he had been restrained at that time, he would not have acted so recklessly as he does now. In the end, he could not bear to let them do this, and they had to bear the bitter fruit. He was lucky because Mr. Nie was young and energetic to raise a child when he was born; the father of Mina and her siblings loved the child and was responsible; but Nina was not wanted by her father and her mother did not love her, and the old man could not raise her.
