My courtyard shelter

The next morning, Xu Dong took his mother to Xia Jian Group to sign the share transaction contract.

After signing, Xu's mother couldn't help but complain:

"You run around all day, can't you sign all at once?"

In the past week, after Xu's father's hard work in promoting, Xinke Haizao has become a little popular, at least in the capital's business circle, it has a considerable reputation.

Then came various investment applications.

Although the investment amount is not too high, most of them are in the millions and tens of millions, but Xu Dong basically accepts all comers based on the principle of more is better.

And in order to express his sincerity, no matter how big or small the amount is, he will bring his mother to sign the contract in person.

No wonder Xu's mother complained endlessly.

"Mom, you've worked so hard. This was the last time. I'll postpone the rest until after the New Year. When Ye Hui comes back, we won't have to go through so much trouble."

"It's so annoying. I should have known to register it under your dad's name." Xu's mother said impatiently.

With Xu's personality of showing off, she should have liked to attend this kind of signing ceremony, but she had a lot of chores before the New Year and couldn't spare the time.

Especially the grandchildren, who would fight every now and then. If she didn't keep an eye on them, she would really be worried.

The mother and son had just returned home and actually ran into Xu's father at the door. Xu's father had a smile on his face, and it was obvious that he had encountered something happy.

"Dad, why are you back?"

Xu Dong asked curiously.

"The city plans to invest in Xinke Haizao. I'm going to take your mother to sign the contract when I get back."

Mother Xu looked helpless: "Are we going now?"

"Let's go after dinner. The contract will be signed at 1 pm."

Mother Xu glanced at her phone and saw that it was already 11:30 pm, so she quickly said:

"I'm going to cook. I'm a bit pressed for time."

After that, she hurried into the kitchen.

Xu Dong continued to ask about the details.

"How much does the city plan to invest?"

"Ten percent." Father Xu replied.

"Ten percent? Does the city have so much money?"

The city has money, but no matter how much money it has, it's not enough to spend. Moreover, such a large sum of money is out of budget. It may not be easy to get it together.

Father Xu shook his head: "Mayor He didn't plan to pay at all."

"Is it land again?"

Xu Dong frowned.

The new company already has 20,000 acres of land under its name. It is really enough. Any more would be a waste.

"It's not land this time."

"What is it?" Xu Dong was very curious.

"Use the water and electricity bill to pay off the bill."

"Water and electricity bill?"

Xu Dong finally realized that it was not before the big flare, and water and electricity bills were a considerable expense for any company.

"Yes, a total of 2.5 billion."

"The price is fair, but with so much money, how many years will it take?"

Xu Dong smiled bitterly and shook his head.

According to the current electricity price, this amount of money is almost equivalent to 1 billion kWh; if it is converted into water price, there are more than 8 million tons of tap water.

Half of each is enough for ten years.

"There is no way, the city is also short of money."

Xu Dong could only nod and say: "Forget it, it's better to have it than not, no matter what, it's much better than using land as a share."

"Mayor He is not the kind of unreasonable person."

Xu's father sighed.

"Dad, I just heard a message from Mr. Wu that the higher-ups seem to want to reopen the stock market, do you know?"

Xu Dong immediately changed the subject.

"I've heard rumors, but the stock market won't open for a while. There are too many old accounts, and some of the higher-ups are probably having a headache."

"What's the headache? Just cut the Gordian knot!"

Xu Dong muttered.

The U.S. stock market reopened two years ago, but the United States was really ruthless. Before the market opened, it had already filed for bankruptcy for all its listed companies, which was equivalent to going into battle lightly.

It's okay for major shareholders, who are full of compromises and exchanges with each other.

But for small shareholders, retail investors, and foreign investment institutions or individuals, it's really cruel. They were directly skinned and devoured clean.

This move has triggered imitations from various countries.

Back in China, it seems a little different from abroad. After all, the state-owned economy accounts for half of the country, and the eyes of stockholders are sharp. If you want to play the trick of stealing the beams and replacing the pillars, it will be more harm than good.

Dad Xu didn't hear clearly, so he asked directly:

"What did you say?"

"I said it would be great if the stock market could open earlier. Then we could let the bakery and Xinke Seaweed go public directly, and we would definitely be able to raise a lot of money."

"What market? Our family is not short of money."

Dad Xu was not very interested in the stock market, and even a little repulsive. He wanted to make the company a family business, and there would be too many constraints after going public.

"Dad, Xinke Seaweed is definitely a gold-eating beast."

Xu Dong reminded.

"What are you afraid of? Mayor He and I have already talked about it. If the company can't survive in the future, the city will take over."

"So easy?"

"I forgot to tell you." Dad Xu patted his head, "After Mayor He's recommendation, our company's 'Jade Algae Series' has been successfully selected into the National Forward-looking Plan, and the future is promising."

Xu Dong was excited: "Are there any subsidies?"

"Of course there are, and the amount of subsidies is not small. The total amount is more than 100 million yuan every year. Speaking of which, it's really thanks to Mayor He."

"So much? That's great."

"This money is not free. It requires corresponding research and development results every year. According to Professor Huang, it is equivalent to publishing a heavyweight paper in some scientific journal every year."

"Is it "Daxia Biological Sciences"?"

Before deciding to acquire Xinke Seaweed, Xu Dong did a lot of preparation work and even read many cutting-edge scientific papers for this purpose.

Although I can’t quite understand it, I have a pretty good grasp of the general direction. At least I’m not “blind”. By the way, I also memorized the names of many top domestic and foreign journals.

"It seems like this is it."

"It's not easy!"

Xu Dong sighed.

As far as he knows, "Daxia Biological Sciences" is one of the top three journals in China. Compared with the declining "Cell" magazine, it is likely to catch up.

In fact, this is related to the international environment.

Needless to say, in Daxia, as a large number of plant factories have been put into production one after another, relevant research results are simply emerging one after another.

In the beautiful country, it seems that the technology tree has been distorted and it is making rapid progress in the electronics industry. In contrast, the results are obvious to all.

The most typical representative is "Yuan World"!

Father Xu smiled and said, "Professor Huang is very confident."

"With this subsidy of more than 100 million, it seems that we need to recruit a few more authoritative professors. No matter what, we must get this money."

"Do you think experts and professors are just cabbage? You can get as much as you want?"

Father Xu said angrily.

Xu Dong waved his hand: "If we don't have enough at home, why don't we have to go abroad? After the new year, I will go to several headhunting companies and try to dig a few more corners."

"Is it reliable?"

"It should be no problem. The political situation in Europe has been unstable recently. It's a good time to poach someone. You might even be able to poach someone of Nobel Prize level, which would make a lot of money."

Dad Xu was very excited after hearing this. The old man had read a lot of "successful studies" and almost regarded "scientific research" as a magic weapon to win, completely ignoring the huge hidden dangers hidden behind it.

"Then you should pay more attention."

"I have a way here, don't worry!"

Xu Dong nodded.

…

After lunch, Xu’s father and Xu’s mother hurried out.

Xu Dong played "Yuan World" for three and a half hours, and then drove out. Gao Yuemei treated her to dinner in the evening, so it was a good opportunity to get together.

When we arrived at the parking lot, we happened to meet Director Li.

Xu Dong stepped forward and said hello: "Uncle Li, you come here quite early, don't you?"

"Hmph, do you still have the nerve to see me?"

Xu Dong felt a little baffled:

"What's wrong?"

Director Li explained smoothly: "Your Dabao played that crappy game with my Li Tao, and the result was good. As soon as he came back, he was clamoring to buy it.

I didn't take it seriously at first, thinking how expensive a game console could be? I agreed on the spot.

Later, when I asked about it, I was like, wow, it actually costs 1.5 million, and I have to queue up. Isn’t this a fool rushing to give money to others? "

"Uncle Li, don't you bury someone like this?"

"Hey, that brat keeps messing with me every day. I'm almost annoyed to death. You are the one who caused this problem. What do you think we should do to solve it?"

"What can I do?" Xu Dong spread his hands, "If you ask me, if the kid is ignorant, just give him a beating."

"To put it lightly, have Dabao and the others been beaten?"

Xu Dong smiled and nodded: "Of course I have. I failed the exam and got beaten every time I failed. I'm not like someone who is reluctant to beat their children."

Xiaobao won’t say anything anymore.

The IQs of Dabao and Erbao are absolutely normal, and they are even a little smart.

With the difficulty of learning in primary school, failing the exam is absolutely useless. There is no other reason than this. This is the red line Xu Dong draws for the children.

Of course, this is limited to primary schools.

In junior high school and high school, adjustments need to be made based on the actual situation. For example, Coco and Lele often fail in math and English, so they have to lower their standards.

The full score is one hundred and fifty, and the minimum score cannot be less than sixty points.

It would be a bit unreasonable if they couldn't even score sixty points. Fortunately, the two sisters always strive for success and have never made Xu Dong feel sad so far.

With no choice, Director Li could only say harshly:

"Education must pay attention to methods, it is wrong to do it with hands!"

"If you don't want to let go, just say you can't let go. Why are you looking for so many excuses?" Xu Dong joked.

"Ahem!" Director Li covered up his embarrassment, "Seriously, you have to help me find a way."

"If not, just buy one!"

"How can our family have so much money? I have saved six or seven years of salary, and I have saved less than one million, which is still short of 670,000!"

"Ask me to borrow it!"

"No, no, let's try another method."

Director Li quickly shook his head.

It's not that I don't want to give up money, it's mainly that the children are too young and play too many games, which not only hurts their bodies, but also probably makes them crippled.

"Then there is only one last way. Ask my aunt to visit my house often. I will go back and tell Dabao and ask him to take your Li Tao to play with him."

"This method is good, that's it."

Director Li had long been waiting for the other party to take the initiative to speak.

This is a great way to kill two birds with one stone.

First, save money and trouble;

Secondly, it can also bring children closer to each other.
