Chapter 352: Chapter 341: an Chapter 352: Chapter 341: an Nie Zhan left the study and was preparing to head to work when Nie Manli stopped him, “Ah Zhan, that mainland girl…”
But the rest of her words were swallowed back under Nie Zhan’s intimidating gaze.
Nie Zhan spoke with a cold face, “Aunt, you can dislike Jiaxin, but I hope you can maintain the most basic politeness and not be so an. Otherwise, if word gets out, our Nie Family will beco a laughingstock once again.”
Seeing him call her an, Nie Manli’s face flushed with anger.
Nie Zhan continued, “Aunt, if you have so much free ti, you should properly educate Second Brother. The hotel incident resulted in a man’s death, yet he listened to a woman’s words, hid away and let Grandpa clean up the ss at his old age, completely unmanly.”
Since the Nie Family hotel’s incident beca public, it had turned into a hot topic for gossip, and Nie Jingshu had beco a negative example for other families to teach their children. Nie Zhan wondered why she didn’t guide her own children and always fixated on him and Jiaxin.
Nie Manli was stunned by his barrage and didn’t even notice when he left.
As the car left the Nie Family Old Mansion, Wang Shi finally said to him, “Boss, Miss Lu called earlier saying she had sothing important to discuss with you and asked you to call her back as soon as you’re free.”
Actually, he missed Jiaxin’s first call because he happened to be in the bathroom. He called her back as soon as he returned.
Today was Saturday, Jiaxin didn’t have classes, and Nie Zhan didn’t call back, instead instructing the driver to head straight for Cadogan Hill.
Midway through the drive, Wang Yadan called, “Boss, a magazine reported that you splurged tens of millions on a ten-thousand-square-foot garden villa for Miss Lu, and it said it had misunderstood you before. You’re not a stingy rooster, but a lavish and wealthy young master.”
Nie Zhan was not at all interested in such an assessnt.
Upon arriving at the Lu Residence, Nie Zhan saw Jiaxin’s furrowed brows and said, “Don’t worry, this can actually be easily solved. If you reveal that you’re a greenback and a major shareholder of Qirui Company, the public will stop questioning you.”
Lu Jiaxin rejected this suggestion, “I thought about that too, but after considering it, I decided not to go public. I can’t justify myself every ti they question ; that would be giving them too much credit.”
“If that’s the case, you’ll face a lot of unfriendly voices.”
Lu Jiaxin smiled lightly and said, “This matter definitely needs to be clarified, but we can’t directly clarify it.”
Hearing her thod, Nie Zhan smiled and agreed.
Lu Jiaxin then talked about her plans, “Nie Zhan, my biggest dream is to beco a landlady. Now that I have money, I want to acquire a real estate company and later collect rent from premium properties.”
She didn’t co forward to clarify, but after a few months, when she acquired a real estate company, it wouldn’t possibly still be considered a gift from Nie Zhan. If anyone thought so, then what’s on their neck must just be for show.
Nie Zhan had heard her express her desire to beco a landlady before, so he wasn’t surprised, simply saying with a smile, “The company selection needs to be well thought out.”
Lu Jiaxin said with a smile, “A company that breaks even is fine. No one would sell an asset with great performance. I’ll handle this myself; you just help vet it when the ti cos.”
She had no experience acquiring a company and feared mistakes. With Nie Zhan, an experienced tycoon, vetting for her, the other party wouldn’t dare to play any tricks.
“Okay.”
Nie Zhan felt that investing in property to collect rent was better than speculating in stocks and foreign currencies. He would only speculate with spare cash, unlike Jiaxin, who would put all her money into stocks and forex.
Although he didn’t ask, he knew from their last conversation that Jiaxin had suddenly gotten rich from forex trading. He had no idea where she had gotten her information, but he did not approve of the way she risked her entire fortune; it was too risky.
There was so much preliminary work before acquiring a company, by then she must have definitely reached adulthood. But Su Heyuan had always been kind to her, and he was sure he would speak up for her if he heard the news from soone else.
It was too much to explain in a phone call, so Lu Jiaxin simply made a call and invited him over for dinner.
Su Heyuan arrived with a bunch of tonics, including bird’s nest, fish maw, dried sea cucumber, and more. After placing the items down, he joked, “Nowadays, you invite to eat at ho instead of going out. What, did you buy a mansion and run out of money?”
Lu Jiaxin snorted, “I have money. I’m actually planning to acquire a company for fun!”
Su Heyuan didn’t take her seriously and laughed, “You’re thinking of acquiring a company for fun as if running a company is child’s play? If you had that much money, we could start a real estate company together.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Jiaxin imdiately refused, “I’m never going to partner with soone in a business again in the future, it’s how friends beco enemies. However, if you’re in need, I’m open to investing.”
There’s a difference between partnering in a company and investing. The forr involves engaging in the company’s day-to-day affairs while the latter just requires investing capital and waiting for dividends. Of course, there’s also the possibility of losing everything.
Su Heyuan had actually noticed this issue too; both he and Jiaxin were strong-willed. It was fortunate that Jiaxin had never gotten involved in the specifics, or they would have certainly clashed.
“Was your comnt about acquiring a company serious, not a joke?”
Lu Jiaxin rolled her eyes at him and said, “When have I ever had ti to joke with you? I’ve already spoken to Nie Zhan about it, and had people helping to inquire.”
Su Heyuan was genuinely shocked and said, “Acquiring a listed company, that would require at least hundreds of millions. Jiaxin, do you have that much money on hand?”
Lu Jiaxin shook her head, “I’m planning to acquire a real estate company, an unlisted one. Those office buildings or towers with good locations and convenient transportation, if I have the money, I’ll buy them. Then I can just lie back and watch the money co in every day.”
Su Heyuan burst into laughter, “Jiaxin, do you know how much it costs to buy a tower? Even one with an ordinary location and not so large size costs hundreds of millions.”
If it’s a central location or one of those landmark towers, they could cost tens of billions or even more. Lu Jiaxin really dares to dream big!
Lu Jiaxin stated that dreams are necessary, otherwise, what’s the difference from a salted fish?
Su Heyuan, observing her expression, felt she really could co up with that much money, so he couldn’t help asking, “Jiaxin, where did you get all that money?”
Lu Jiaxin laughed, “What a question, of course I earned it, do you think I’d steal or rob? Even if I wanted to, I wouldn’t have the ability.”
Su Heyuan never doubted the legitimacy of her money. With her ability to make money, she had no need to resort to dirty tricks.
Seeing that he was about to continue, Lu Jiaxin imdiately changed the subject, “Did you dispose of that five million?”
Speaking of this, Su Heyuan’s mood improved, “The greenback/Japanese Yen exchange rate fell by more than 20%, and I think it will drop further, so I haven’t exited the position.”
Lu Jiaxin said, “If you think it will continue to fall, then you should exit. With five million in capital, a leverage of twenty tis, a rise of more than 20%, and after deducting taxes and fees, you still have more than seventeen million. Then continue to short sell, with ten or twenty tis leverage, that way you’ll earn even more.”
Su Heyuan nodded, “I’ll go back and discuss it with my father. He should agree.”
