Chapter 705: Chapter 513: Another January 1

Chen Pingsheng sat at home, and money came from the sky.

By the end of December, Water Cloud Space in Capital City, Xiangjiang, Shenzhen, and Guangzhou were all holding Splendid Night events.

The rich ladies in these areas had money, and they were very willing to spend it on themselves.

Within just three days, the four cities together achieved a total of 3.6 billion in top-ups.

After deducting various costs and product expenditures, combined with his own shares,

He still had 1.9 billion to play with at random doubling.

Chen Pingsheng drew out that familiar golden bead, and after shaking it, it eventually stopped at four.

This was considered extremely good luck.

A single wave down, and yet another 78 billion was made; it looked like a lot, but it was still not enough to cover one quarter’s operation of Tengfei New Energy Cars.

Chen Pingsheng transferred 60 billion there, just enough for the expenses from January to February 2019.

Even though mass production was achieved, the current sales volume could not support the over 30 billion R&D costs per year.

He needed to persevere for at least another three years until new energy cars could account for more than 50% of the overall car market.

Only then might there truly be substantial profit to be made.

This was not something to rush; any tech enterprise couldn’t be built in just one or two years.

At the end of the month, he also took the headquarters team to Golden Mountain for a visit, where the total investment exceeded 60 billion.

It had been built for nearly two years now, and the exterior frameworks were all completed.

Eighteen 22-story headquarters buildings flanking a 38-story skyscraper known as the technology tower.

The reason it was called a technology tower was mainly because it incorporated numerous technological elements.

Matched with the unique Forest City.

Besides these headquarters buildings, there was also the Tengying high-end apartment community,

And Tengying Eastern Courtyard.

These were high-end employee neighborhoods built from his few billion land acquisition; they were used in conjunction with the headquarters’ Forest City.

Moreover, not far away, there was a newly built Tengying Management University.

Aside from the latter invested university, other headquarters and neighborhood buildings had already completed their exterior topping-off.

In another year at most, the entire scattered Tengying headquarters could all be relocated here.

Forming one of the top private tech enterprises in the country, just the thought of it was quite exciting.

In its initial design, this place had its own headquarters buildings, neighborhoods, apartments, as well as shopping streets, hospitals, hotels, schools, etc.

It could be said, just waiting for everything here to be completed.

It would entirely form a separate small kingdom, having everything one might need, and also completely avoiding the frustrating city traffic during peak office hours.

Here, there was no need to drive to and from work, walking less than twenty minutes was sufficient to reach the employee neighborhood.

It was indeed very convenient.

In about ten more months, they were generally able to move over.

Both the headquarters buildings and the employee neighborhoods needed to complete a unified decoration before people could move in.

It wouldn’t be bare-shell buildings, as that would be inconvenient.

After becoming wealthy, Chen Pingsheng also quite enjoyed the extravagant life; a big group of relatives went to help Chen Sai and his eldest sister Chen Yao with their planning.

In Magic City, if one opened a common clothing store, it wouldn’t make much money.

Chen Qi, after much thought, decided to open a cheongsam store, specifically selling those Republican Era cheongsams from Old Shanghai.

This type of clothing was especially expensive, with slightly better ones costing a few thousand.

As for Chen Sai, because she lacked business experience, the eldest sister even suggested she open a convenience store.

This was really not a smart idea, realistically speaking, her rented premises alone would not cost less than two million a year.

What kind of convenience store could make that much money in a year?

That would have to be located by West Lake, selling a bottle of water for at least five yuan to make it work.

The convenience store idea was ultimately rejected, and foreign tourists who came here for shopping still preferred clothing with distinctive characteristics.

Why would she buy something on Nanjing Street that’s available everywhere?

Everyone knows the rent there is frighteningly high.

Chen Sai, undecided at the moment, simply made a call to Song Yanxi.

His wife is reliable–don’t sell clothing; everyone knows clothes at Nanjing Street are definitely more expensive than other places.

Chen Qi and Chen Yao are different; they have no pressure.

For them, opening a store is just a way to pass time; best if they make money, but they can still secure a steady income of over ten million a year from other places.

That’s quite different from Chen Sai’s situation.

She suggested that Chen Sai sell coffee and open an Antler Coffee.

An annual rent of 12 million is unprofitable, even possibly resulting in a loss of over two million.

But ten thousand a year for rent would be different.

The gross profit margin from selling coffee is still very high, at least seventy percent or more.

With that rent, an Antler Coffee shop could definitely profit no less than three million a year.

The most important thing for Chen Sai was to earn money first, to feel secure.

Otherwise, even an annual rent of ten thousand would stress her.

Having her cousin around saved her hundreds of thousands in franchise fees.

Why look to sell clothes when there’s a surefire business to run?

Only Chen Qi has the luxury to do whatever she wants.

Chen Sai hardly hesitated before following Song Yanxi’s advice, turning her store into an Antler Coffee.

Put up a couple of sunshades outside, place a few small tables, and there you have a classy coffee shop.

As for big sister Chen Yao, she’s still planning to sell handbags.

Several relatives were busy helping them out; only Chen Sai’s business turned profitable in the first month.

Chen Qi’s qipao shop and big sister Chen Yao’s handbag store are still uncertain.

When his wife returned from Capital City, it was already the day before New Year’s Day.

Every New Year’s Day, their family would gather at home, and this year was no exception.

“Dad, are we going to Xiangjiang this New Year’s Day to play with that super yacht?”

“New Year’s Day is just a three-day holiday, a bit too short.”

Chen Pingsheng said, “Let’s wait for your winter vacation, and then bring the whole family to roam the seas.”

A billion-dollar super yacht, a true luxury at the billionaire level.

Taking dozens of family members on a half-month Spring Festival trip is no problem at all.

It also allows the grandparents to experience the thrill of sailing the seas.

Chen An’an thought about it and also liked the idea; as for Er Piya, her chubby face couldn’t wait to play on the family’s big yacht.

“Honey, let’s go have dinner at Grandpa’s tomorrow!”

“Sure, it’s perfect for everyone to gather on New Year’s Day.”

Chen Pingsheng said, “Also invite your sister Song Wu, she’s expecting her second child, your mom probably already has the names figured out.”

“This child will take her daughter’s surname; how could she not be happy?”

Song Yanxi slightly tidied up the hall; Little Third wasn’t home, and they had always lived in this large flat upstairs.

The space is truly spacious at over six hundred square meters.

The advantages are obvious, and so are the disadvantages.

That is, cleaning is quite challenging.

Several cleaning robots roaming about still can’t thoroughly clean the house.

Chen An’an is okay, she already loves cleanliness.

Er Piya, on the other hand, causes destruction wherever she goes, uniquely notorious in the family.
