Rebirth 1983: Building My Business Empire Chapter 259 - 259 248 Its Good to Be Rich

Chapter 259: Chapter 248: It’s Good to Be Rich Chapter 259: Chapter 248: It’s Good to Be Rich After hanging up the phone, Nie Zhan imdiately called Feng Qinglei and asked him to reserve the best spot for himself, “You called this morning and said you got so Brittany lobster, is it still there?”

Feng Qinglei chuckled and replied, “Most of it was taken by friends, I was planning to eat the two left for myself. Didn’t you say you didn’t have ti today? What’s changed, you’re free now?”

Nie Zhan humd a response, “Miss Lu invited to dinner and specifically asked to dine in your restaurant, so keep the lobster for .”

Feng Qinglei was surprised, “Doesn’t she have exams? How co she has ti to have dinner with you today?”

Seeing Nie Zhan busy all this ti, and coming to eat alone, he casually inquired, not expecting the young beauty was prepping for exams.

Nie Zhan knew he wasn’t interested in these matters, but if one didn’t have a child sitting for the exams, indeed there would be no concern, “She finished her exams yesterday, now she has ti.”

Upon hearing this, Feng Qinglei lasciviously suggested, “Now that she’s done with her exams and has free ti, take her on a vacation, to Hawaii, Venice, or shopping in Huadu. When she cos back, she’ll be completely obedient to you.”

Nie Zhan felt that getting Lu Jiaxin to be completely obedient to him was impossible in this lifeti. Of course, he also didn’t need it, “She has been studying while dabbling in investnts, and now she’s quite wealthy. Whatever she wants, she can buy herself.”

Shocked, Feng Qinglei asked, “What investnt did she make?”

Nie Zhan replied with a smile, “She bought Hongzhong shares, held them for half a year, and made more than double the profit. And you? You bought five million, then hurried to sell when you saw the stock drop.”

Feng Qinglei was extrely annoyed when this matter ca up. He had bought Hongzhong shares on Nie Zhan’s tip. At that ti, Hongzhong’s stock had fallen like trash. Nie Zhan happened to be abroad on business and under the persuasion of other friends, he sold the shares. Who would have thought that in three months, it would soar from the bottom at 0.41 Hong Kong Dollars per share to now 1.59 dollars per share! If he had held on to it until now, he could have made a profit of five million.

Feng Qinglei remarked, “Your little girlfriend holds her ground well, unlike , who gets nervous at the slightest provocation.”

Nie Zhan simply smiled and did not engage further, “Jiaxin likes to eat truffle and caviar. Rember to keep the good stuff for us.”

The shellfish farm business idea was Lu Jiaxin’s own, known only to Yan Yihua apart from her. It wasn’t about claiming the idea as his, but she realized that Lu Jiaxin disliked hassle. Even if soone is low-key, the dia can sensationalize and create issues, because that brings topics and sales.

Feng Qinglei said with mock annoyance, “Every ti you co, I always keep the best for you.”

Lu Jiaxin arrived outside the restaurant. She had just gotten out of her car and stood firm when she saw Nie Zhan’s car.

When she saw Nie Zhan getting out of the car, she said with a smile, “What a coincidence.”

Wansheng Real Estate was close to the restaurant, but Nie Zhan had run into a traffic accident on the way and was delayed for a bit, otherwise he would have arrived earlier.

Upon seeing Nie Zhan, Yan Yihua imdiately said, “Oh, I just rembered, I forgot to hand in a docunt to my uncle. Miss Lu, I’m sorry, I have to rush back, otherwise my uncle will kill .”

Such a far-fetched excuse, it was a wonder he managed to say it.

Lu Jiaxin replied with a smile, “Sure, another day, when you have ti, I’ll treat you again.”

“Alright.”

The two entered the restaurant and had just sat down when Feng Qinglei ca over, greeted with a smile, “Miss Lu, you haven’t been here for months.”

Lu Jiaxin smiled, “I had exams, no ti to co out. Now that I finished, I ca to taste the delicious truffle and caviar from your place.”

Feng Qinglei sat beside Nie Zhan and asked with a grin, “You’re in for a treat today. Just a couple of days ago, I got a box of Alba white truffles. I’ll prepare truffle sashimi for you later.”

“Then I’m indeed in for a treat today.”

Feng Qing Lei said generously, “Sister, this al is on , consider it an early celebration for your admission into your dream university.”

Lu Jiaxin graciously declined, explaining that Nie Zhan had helped her out a lot recently and that this al was specifically to treat him.

Feng Qing Lei joked, “Last ti you bought a second-hand car, the dia mocked him as a penny-pincher. If they see you paying for the al, tomorrow’s papers will surely label him as Grandet the Second.”

Lu Jiaxin laughed as well when he brought up the matter, “Nie Zhan, why didn’t you sue that magazine?”

Nie Zhan replied, “If I really sued, they’d just put a chief editor or reporter to take the fall. We’re not public figures—once the buzz dies down, it’ll naturally quiet down.”

Nonchalance can indeed be a good approach.

With a jesting tone, Feng Qing Lei said, “Sister, Young Master Nie is wealthy, let him buy you the latest model BMW.”

Without even confirming their relationship as boyfriend and girlfriend, how could Lu Jiaxin accept such an expensive gift? “A car is just a ans of transportation; as long as it’s safe and performs well, new or second-hand is all the sa to .”

Seeing that Feng Qing Lei wouldn’t stop talking, Nie Zhan interjected, “Boss Feng, I’m hungry. Could you check on our dishes in the kitchen?”

Feng Qing Lei noticed his expression and said with a laugh, “Sure, I’ll go check on it for you.”

Lu Jiaxin found it interesting. Nie Zhan was a man of few words, while Feng Qing Lei was much more outgoing. Two people with completely different personalities had beco good friends—quite a fate indeed.

Nie Zhan said, “We’re in luck today. He saved two Brittany lobsters in his restaurant, they were still available when I called earlier.”

Lu Jiaxin was initially surprised, then realized he was talking about blue lobsters. She thought it was good to be wealthy; what seed like legendary food to ordinary people was just commonplace for them, “I want to go to the kitchen and see. I’ve only seen pictures of blue lobster; I’ve never seen one in person.”

Nie Zhan shook his head, “They’re probably already being prepared now. Brittany lobsters co from Romantic Country. When you have ti, I’ll take you out to sea there, you never know, we might catch a few!”

Lu Jiaxin chuckled, “It’s not that easy. Big lobsters live more than seventy ters deep in the sea. Unless luck incarnate blesses you, novices can’t catch them.”

She accidentally used a modern expression.

Nie Zhan guessed the phrase ant having extrely good luck, “You seem to know quite a bit about blue lobsters.”

“I like to read books. Everything I know cos from books.”

As they were talking, the waiter brought over the lobster, Feng Qing Lei was not there. He wouldn’t really interrupt their dinner just to tease Nie Zhan.

Top-tier seafood like this is usually stead to preserve its flavor to the fullest. The blue lobster was served stead this ti.

Lu Jiaxin forked a piece of lobster at and instantly savored the rich and lush taste, as if she could also faintly detect the salty essence of the sea.

Seeing her enjoying the al, Nie Zhan couldn’t help but put down his cutlery and watch her eat.

Feeling sowhat embarrassed under his gaze, Lu Jiaxin urged, “What are you looking at? Hurry up and eat. If the lobster gets cold and the at turns tough, it won’t taste good.”
