The leisurely life of a reborn dad

Chapter 1088 Popularity (60008000)

When I got home, I helped my grandfather lie down in his room. Mengmeng also jumped upstairs and told her mother how brave she was just now.

"Mom, I rode the roller coaster twice by myself." Mengmeng stretched out two fingers seriously to emphasize this point to her mother.

She looked very proud.

Cheng Xiaolin saw her daughter's happiness, and she also laughed: "I'm not crying."

"Why am I crying?" Mengmeng asked.

Cheng Xiaolin was really confused and didn't know how to answer the question.

"Mengmeng, go take a bath quickly and get ready for bed." Cheng Xiaolin said to her.

But Mengmeng didn't want to sleep. She had just come back from outside and she was excited: "Mom, I'll go to bed later. Where is my brother? I'll play with him. You can rest for a while."

She's pretty good at talking.

She also worked hard to stay up late.

But Cheng Xiaolin said to her: "Your brother has gone to bed long ago. Go take a bath quickly. You have to get up early to go to school tomorrow."

Mengmeng wanted to say a few more words, but seeing her mother's face change, she also became more honest, lowered her head and walked towards her room: "Okay then."

Why didn't Cheng Xiaolin know Mengmeng's little thoughts? Seeing her daughter deliberately wasting time, Cheng Xiaolin urged her again: "If you don't want to sleep, just keep playing. I won't call you tomorrow morning."

The cute little face is completely straightened out, and it looks neat this time.

When Cao Shujie came up, Cheng Xiaolin said to him: "Shujie, after you left, I just watched TV and seemed to see the top leader in our city taking office."

"Huh?" Cao Shujie was stunned for a moment.

Since Xiang Yuheng resigned from all his jobs in Yiling City and took up his post in Quancheng, Cao Shujie has not paid much attention to the affairs of the city.

Besides, he had a very good personal relationship with Xiang Yuheng. It was a chance meeting. He was not interested in joining in the fun every time someone came. That was not his character.

Cheng Xiaolin saw that her husband was not very interested, so she said directly: "It seems to be called Wang Xuelia, yes, that's the name."

Cao Shujie thought about it carefully, but unfortunately, he had no impression of this name at all.

He had been staying in the capital in his previous life, so he really didn't understand what was going on in his hometown.

Even if you say a few rumors from hearsay, you will forget them later.

"Love whoever you want, we won't provoke them anyway." Cao Shujie said.

Cheng Xiaolin nodded: "I know, I was just watching the news, and I happened to see it and let you know."

"You have been busy these days and are quite tired. Please rest quickly." Cao Shujie said.

"You don't want to sleep?" Cheng Xiaolin wondered.

Cao Shujie shook his head: "I took a nap in the office at noon today, and I'm not sleepy now."

They were already an old couple, so Cheng Xiaolin ignored him and lay down to rest.

Cao Shujie was afraid of disturbing his wife's rest, so he closed the bedroom door again, went outside, and checked the news on his mobile phone.

It's just that there is nothing new in the news at the moment, and most of the international news at the moment is reported around the old wolf who has just taken office.

Netizens' enthusiasm for this matter exceeded Cao Shujie's imagination. Many people are quite optimistic. They feel that the economy will rise from the ground.

But Cao Shujie knows that the future situation is not as optimistic as netizens think.

Especially starting next year, the trade war and the shift to global loose monetary policy will disrupt the market balance.

"As the saying goes, what is supposed to come will always come." Cao Shujie smiled brightly. He is just a small man in Shengdou. He is developing well now, but a Xuemeng food factory is a drop in the ocean and is too inconspicuous in the world.

Instead of worrying unfoundedly, it is better to live well in the present.

Anyway, even if the economy is really bad in the future, he still has enough savings to let his family live a good life.

But this global economic uncertainty also brings about another related problem.

Risk aversion!

Many investors or people with money are worried that their assets may depreciate in the next period of time, so they want to buy something that can preserve their value.

But what to buy in the current environment?

Some people buy houses to preserve their value. Cao Shujie remembers that in the past two years, house prices have indeed soared again.

But unfortunately, he has no need for the house now, and he will be strong if he has no desire.

Some people also started to buy gold, thinking that antiques in prosperous times and gold in troubled times remain unchanged through the ages.

But there is a wave of people who are not satisfied with houses or gold at all. They invest in an emerging market.

For example, Bitcoin.

After swiping and swiping, Cao Shujie came across this news.

He watched with gusto.

The content in the news cannot be said to be wrong, and it makes sense to some extent. But the problem is that the rise of Bitcoin is not entirely like this.

For example, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange released news that they are preparing to launch Bitcoin-related derivatives and spot index contracts. This means that it can also be shorted.

After hearing this news, many capital investors began to gear up and think about flexing their muscles in this emerging market.

“According to relevant reports, after Bitcoin broke through 820 US dollars on the afternoon of the winter solstice, it hit a new high in two years and 10 months, and then continued to exert strength. As of now, the price of Bitcoin has exceeded 1,170 US dollars. Since it first broke through the 2013 high of US$1,156 on the 24th, it has been consolidating at a high level for a month. Let us wait and see how the price of Bitcoin will go next.”

Cao Shujie was reading the news he had just found and looked at what was written in the news. He really didn't notice that Bitcoin had returned to the range of more than 1,000 US dollars.

But this is normal. When I saw it a year ago, it was already over 800 US dollars.

Now three months have passed, and the elasticity of this thing is so active. It is normal for it to rise and fall.

After Cao Shujie read it, he turned off the news. He planned to sell part of it if the price rose again.

We have almost spent all the money on building a laboratory. There is still a lot to invest in in the future, including purchasing relevant equipment and recruiting troops.

If you sell it again, you can get your blood back.

When I came back to my senses, I looked at the time on my phone. It was almost 11 o'clock in the evening.

When I was scrolling through the news on my phone just now, I really didn’t realize how fast time passed.

I felt sleepy now, so I went into the bedroom to rest.

When he got up the next morning, Cao Shujie went to the dam and took four dogs for a run around the dam.

I suddenly felt refreshed.

When he took Mengmeng to school this time, Mengmeng repeatedly told him on the way: "Dad, don't forget to pick me up at noon."

"Mengmeng, don't worry, dad will definitely not forget this time." Cao Shujie swore.

Unfortunately, Mengmeng didn't believe it and finally replied: "It depends on your performance."

Cao Shujie: "..."

He really wanted to beat Mengmeng up.

This is a pure naughty kid.

When he arrived at the school gate, Cao Shujie found it quite interesting to see Mengmeng jumping and running into the school with her schoolbag.

But as soon as Cao Shujie arrived at the company, something happened that made him find it more interesting.

In the office, when Cao Shujie came in, his buttocks had not yet been warmed by the chair, and then he heard He Ruijia report to him that the new leader in the city would come to visit their company next month.

"Visit? Who said that?" Cao Shujie frowned.

He just heard from his wife last night that the new boss in their city was going to visit Xuemeng Food Factory. He was puzzled that Xuemeng Food Factory was located in the whole city, both in terms of scale and operating income. Even if they are not top-notch, shouldn’t the new head of the family check out those top-ranked companies first?

Besides, since you just arrived, shouldn't you first understand the work and visit your hometown in the city?

Why come to Xuemeng Food Factory for investigation first?

Cao Shujie was deep in thought, and He Ruijia saw that her boss was silent and had no expression on his face. She was still wondering, isn't this a good thing when a leader comes to visit the company?

Judging from the boss's expression, it doesn't seem like that's the case.

He Ruijia couldn't understand the question. When she was distracted, Cao Shujie asked her again: "Xiao He, is the name of the person you are talking about Wang Xuelia?"

He heard his wife talk about it yesterday, but he hasn't forgotten it yet.

He Ruijia nodded, that's the name.

"Are you sure? What is the specific itinerary?" Cao Shujie asked.

He Ruijia handed a piece of paper to Cao Shujie, which clearly recorded Wang Xuelia's itinerary for visiting Xuemeng Food Factory.

Wang Xuelia came to visit on April 25th, the Tuesday of the last week.

What Cao Shujie didn't expect was that there was not only an itinerary for a visit to Xuemeng Food Factory, but also an itinerary for a visit to the county chemical plant. There are also itineraries to visit Caojiazhuang Children’s Theme Park.

During this trip to Pingyuan County, we visited a total of three places, and Cao Shujie occupied two of them.

This made Cao Shujie a little flattered.

But on the other hand, he felt even more abnormal.

The first stop was a visit to the county's chemical plant, which he understood.

After all, it is a subsidiary of Sinochem, a serious state-owned enterprise with an annual output value of more than 4 billion yuan.

Regardless of its turnover, Wang Xuelia will definitely give it a try based on its background.

But Xuemeng Food Factory?

Cao Shujie remembered one thing. The current turnover of Xuemeng Food Factory seems to be the number one in Pingyuan County!

"His grandma's wife is very popular!" Cao Shujie complained about himself.

"Xiao He, go tell each department to clean up their respective areas before the 25th of next month. Leaders are welcome to visit." Cao Shujie said to his assistant.

He Ruijia nodded and left Cao Shujie's office.

But she always felt that her boss was not particularly welcoming to superior leaders when they came to inspect the work this time, or was not as enthusiastic as when Xiang Yuheng came before.

"How strange?" He Ruijia muttered.

But she didn't think much about her boss's affairs and went to complete her task first.

In the office, Cao Shujie was still thinking about this matter, but he knew too little about Wang Xuelia and had insufficient information at hand to analyze anything useful.

In addition, it was almost time for his daughter to get out of school at noon, so he put Wang Xuelia's matters aside for now and went to pick up his daughter.

Otherwise, the little guy should be angry again. (End of chapter)
