My Siheyuan Shelter

Chapter 723 A Year in a Hurry

After dealing with Aunt Zhang's funeral, everyone sat together and held a family meeting, mainly to arrange the life of Ma Xu and his wife.

"Enya, are you going to stay in Qindao, or go back to Sydney with us?"

Xu Ting took the initiative to ask.

"Mom, Enya will take the college entrance examination this year, let's wait and see!"

Ma Xu hurriedly replied.

"Isn't Sydney the same university? Coco and Lele are studying at the University of Sydney, and the three of them can just be companions together. Besides, if you graduate next year, you will have to go back sooner or later."

Xu Ting insisted.

There are still four years left in Enya University, so the young couple can't be allowed to stay in the country forever, can they?In case the two have children, the family can help take care of them.

"Xiao Xu probably doesn't want to part with his daughter-in-law!"

Xu Dong laughed and joked.

Zhang Enya pulled Ma Xu, and persuaded in a low voice:

"Brother Xiaoxu, just listen to the mother. I haven't seen Sister Keke and the others for several years. I miss them. This time we can finally get together."

As soon as this word comes out.

Xu Ting suddenly felt that her daughter-in-law looked more pleasing to the eye!

"Okay, you can go back to Sydney first." Ma Xu nodded, and then changed the topic: "Uncle, is my sister recruiting interns? I want to go there for a while."

"Didn't you say you were going to prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination?"

Xu Dong deliberately teased.

"Hey, I want to work for a few years before taking the postgraduate entrance examination."

Ma Xu explained with embarrassment.

"That's fine. Your sister is very busy now. Go and help her. I'm sure you can learn something."

Xu Dong forced himself to hold back his smile, young people are impatient and don't even want to wait for a year.

Ma Xu shook his head immediately: "Uncle, my major in college is biotechnology, not business administration. I want to enter your company's laboratory."

"It's really stupid, and you won't enjoy the blessings." Xu Ting patted her son lightly, "What's so good about the laboratory, people are stupid in it."

"Mom, you are a stereotype, my uncle's company is not simple."

Ma Xu paused, then introduced:
"Xinke Seaweed has just published a blockbuster paper in "Big Xia Biological Sciences". Even our teacher said that this is another milestone in the history of human agriculture and has epoch-making significance."

"Is it so mysterious?" Xu Ting asked in surprise.

"Then let me put it another way. In the future, the seaweed powder produced by my uncle's company may replace potatoes and sweet potatoes and become the new staple food."

"Seaweed powder? Can that stuff be eaten as a meal?"

Xu Ting was full of doubts.

Ma Jie couldn't help but interjected: "Why can't you eat it? You forgot that the bread of Coke Bread Factory has added seaweed powder. Don't you all eat well?"

"Replacing the staple food is a bit exaggerated. There is still a long way to go. There may not be results in ten or eight years. But I support Xiaoxu's choice. Although the scientific research work is boring, it will not be less than Lingling's income."

"Really?" Xu Ting expressed doubts.

"Hey, the first author of the thesis that Xiao Xu talked about is a female researcher in our laboratory. As a reward, she herself got [-]% of the company's shares."

Xu Dong gave an example.

"That's not much, is it?"

Xu Ting replied subconsciously.

Ma Xu immediately reminded: "Mom, the market value of Xinke Seaweed is about to exceed 300 billion. 24% of the shares may not seem like much, but it is worth [-] billion!"

"There are more than 20 billion? I remember that your brother-in-law seems to have more than 200% of the shares? If you calculate it this way, isn't it [-] billion?"

Xu Ting was stunned.

Although she knew that her brother was worth a lot of money, she never had a specific idea. Until the other party sat on the throne of the richest man, she only knew that he was at the level of hundreds of billions.

"You are old Huang Li." Xu Dong waved his hand, "The company has introduced many strategic investors before, and with my several cash-outs, the current shareholding is only a little over 20.00%, which is less than 100 billion."

"100 billion is not enough?"

"Mom, don't be fooled by my uncle. The stock price of Xinke Seaweed has risen quite a lot recently. I estimate that my net worth will at least double before the end of the year."

Ma Xu immediately added.

"How much is it doubled?"

"It must be more than 300 billion."

Xu Dong hurriedly said modestly: "The stock price is all fake, and I can't cash out all of it, maybe it will fall back at any time."

"Dongzi, your sister, I really can't imagine that you can have the achievements you have today. I haven't seen how smart you are since I was a child?"

Xu Ting was puzzled.

"Maybe I'm God's illegitimate child!"

Xu Dong really felt so.

"Stop talking nonsense, I'll leave Enya's transfer to you, it's best to do it quickly."

"Okay." Xu Dong turned his head to look at Zhang Enya, "Enya, don't be burdened after transferring to another school. My uncle has connections at the University of Sydney, and he can get in even if he almost gets a score."

"Thank you uncle."

Ma Xu quickly pulled his daughter-in-law and said gratefully.

Zhang Enya's academic performance is not top-notch, and the probability of being admitted to a university is at most only [-]% to [-]%. With the guarantee from her uncle, the couple finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Why are you being polite to my uncle? Do you two have other things? While my uncle is still here, let's help you solve it together."

"No, uncle." Ma Xu shook his head.

"Uncle." Zhang Enya said suddenly, "Can you help me sell our house?"

"Why sell the house? Isn't it good to keep it as a souvenir? Maybe I can come back for two days in the future."

Xu Dong was puzzled.

"No need, grandma specially ordered the house to be sold before she was alive. After Xiao Xu and I left, she didn't want the house to become empty. You also know that grandpa and grandma usually like to be lively..."

Zhang Enya burst into tears as she spoke.

"Well, you don't have to worry about selling the house. Uncle will definitely help you find a reliable family with many children and loves cleanliness."

Reminiscent of Aunt Zhang and the old couple's normal and unremarkable life, Xu Dong decided to help Aunt Zhang realize this simple wish no matter what.

……

A week passed in the blink of an eye.

Xu Dong and his party finally set foot on their way home.

As for Ma Xu, he won't practice until the summer vacation, and there are still more than three months left!

After returning to Sydney, Zhang Enya naturally lived in the manor, and usually lived with her father-in-law and mother-in-law. They lived on the third floor of the villa.

The eldest family lives on the second floor.

Xu Dong lives on the first floor with Xu's father and Xu's mother.

Of course, it is impossible for the two families to live in the manor all the time. It is just a special situation at present, and they will eventually move out when they see the sun again.

Xu Ting and his wife bought a house years ago, together with Tan Bangxiang's family, Lao Yang's family, and Lao Pan's family, the four families bought in the same community.

The community is not too far from the manor, only three blocks away. It is a well-known civil servant community in the local area. Both the security environment and supporting facilities are first-class.

On June 6, Zhang Enya took the college entrance examination as scheduled.

Not surprisingly, the little girl did not do very well in the exams. After all, because of Aunt Zhang's death and the subsequent transfer of schools, many courses were delayed.

In the end, with the help of Xu Dong, Zhang Enya successfully got the admission letter from the University of Sydney.

On July 7th, Ma Xu couldn't wait to arrive in Sydney, and then started his internship career.

On August 8, Xinke Seaweed won the National Science and Technology Progress Special Award, and was selected into the "National Foresight Plan" for three consecutive years.

On October 10th, the 9th anniversary of the founding of the Great Xia, the government held a grand military parade again after many years, which made people imagine.

On October 10, after more than two years of war, the Europa Allied Forces and the Uzreel and other countries signed the final armistice agreement.

The two sides are bounded by 28 degrees north latitude.

The north belongs to the Europa Condominium, and the south belongs to the newly established Persian Gulf Alliance.

After this battle, the European countries finally obtained the oil reserves they had dreamed of for a long time, which effectively guaranteed their own energy security.

Two months later, Xu Dong returned to the capital on a yacht. He was going to participate in the first annual meeting of entrepreneurs of Asia Mutual and accept a series of official honorary awards at the same time.
