Take Arada back to the past

Chapter 873, When One Person Attains Enlightenment, Even His Chickens and Dogs Benefit.

When Yang Xiaole returned to Beijing, it was already the eve of the Lunar New Year.

Now that it's the holidays, there's naturally not much people at home.

Supermarkets are busy during the Chinese New Year; I guess it's the supermarket area that's busiest.

I drove to the place.

really.

Upon arriving at the destination, I immediately spotted the two little ones.

A large table was set up at the entrance of the supermarket, with lots of sunflower seeds and peanuts on it, and my father was busy roasting them there.

The little guy was naturally in charge of selling things.

The mother was inside looking after the supermarket.

Business is pretty good.

"dad!"

Yueyue was greeting people, so she naturally saw him immediately and called out with a smile.

Xingxing weighed him, saw him, and called out with a smile.

They started settling the bills for the customers.

Yang Xiaole nodded and went to the side.

He looked at his father and called out, "Dad!"

"You're back! This time it's been quite a long time!"

Yang Xiaole nodded, looked at the stove fire, frowned and said, "Why are you roasting nuts and seeds?"

Seeing this, Yang Guangzhi laughed and said, "It's almost Chinese New Year! Your mother and I were thinking of getting some roasted nuts and seeds. Otherwise, how can we manage if we don't have any when people come over?"

Yang Xiaole was speechless for a moment. He looked around and said, "Dad, let's forget about it this year. After the New Year, the supermarket can't sell it anymore. You can contact a store with good quality products and get some to sell."

"Won't all that money go to someone else? Besides, if a roasted nuts and seeds shop is set up at the entrance, customers who come to buy things can buy some roasted nuts and seeds, and those who buy roasted nuts and seeds can also buy some supermarket items!"

Yang Guangzhi was puzzled.

Yang Xiaole nodded slightly: "I know what you're saying! It's not that we're not allowed to sell. We just put the goods up at the entrance to sell. We run a supermarket, not a production company. Our main business is sales."

Didn't I tell you? If you're going to open a chain of supermarkets, in a year or two you'll need to start hiring, setting up your own company, and expanding your distribution channels…

The father's idea wasn't actually wrong.

They can mutually drive traffic to each other.

Upon hearing this, Yang Guangzhi thought about it and realized it made sense.

"Okay then, I'll do it this year and not next year."

Yang Xiaole hummed in agreement.

It seems that opening a supermarket for them might not be the right thing to do.

His initial intention was to avoid making things so tiring for both of them.

Once we figure out the routine, and with the support of Huang Xintong's chain stores, things will be much easier in the future.

No wonder the parents were unwilling to give up the roasted nuts business; the business was just too good.

The group worked until 8 p.m. when there were hardly any customers left, and then they started to pack up.

Yang Xiaole naturally went home to cook first.

……

The family sat there in the evening, chatting idly.

"Hey, Xiao Le, I have something to tell you! Good things are going to happen to our family in the second half of this year!"

My mother said with a smile while eating.

Yang Xiaole asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

"Your younger brother has been transferred to work in ZJ province. Your younger sister has also been transferred to the bank's head office, your eldest sister has been promoted, and so have your sister-in-law and your eldest brother..."

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole pondered it.

Several members of my family were among the first batch of college students, and some even have master's or doctoral degrees.

Previously, upgrades were usually at the maximum level, and only one level was upgraded when the time limit was reached.

It hasn't been long since the last upgrade.

It's strange that it's been upgraded so quickly, and with so many people involved.

Because the higher the level, the slower the leveling speed.

After all, there's a specific role for everyone.

After thinking about it for a moment, I realized it might have been Old Wang or someone else's doing.

It's a good thing to return a favor!
He snapped out of his thoughts and smiled, "This is a good thing!"

Ordinary people really can't do that.

"Yes, that's good news!"

Father Yang Guangzhi said with a smile, "Our family has finally made something of itself!"

Yang Xiaole smiled upon hearing this.

I can understand my parents' thoughts; they all hope their children will succeed.

Now some members of the family have become successful.

Even though Yang Xiaole isn't part of the system, he's still a wealthy man.

The family ate their meal and chatted.

“Mom and Dad, Qu Ying can’t come back this year. How about we go to Hainan for the New Year together? It’s not cold there and it’s comfortable to stay in.”

The mother shook her head and refused: "The shop is so busy right now, you should take the child instead!"

After hearing this, Yang Xiaole thought about it and didn't press the matter further.

Agree.

……

After the meal, Yang Xiaole took the two children back home.

Huang Xintong has given birth and has now returned to Hong Kong Island with her family.

As for Huang Qiujing and Hua Yourong, since Zimo and Qiqi went to university in the United States, the two of them flew to the United States together to celebrate the New Year.

I visited Uncle Suo before the Lunar New Year and sent some gifts to my friends here, including Lao Wang and Feng Guanhua.

Feng Xue is already more than five months pregnant and her pregnancy is starting to show. She expects to give birth in mid-June.

She's very busy too.

After spending a few days in Beijing, Yang Xiaole took her child to Hainan Island for the Chinese New Year.

……

Although Qiqi and Zimo were born later than Xingxing and Yueyue.

However, primary schools on Hong Kong Island are five years long, so students start university a year early.

After the New Year, Yang Xiaole sent his child back to school and flew to the Arabian Sea again, storing the cruiser that Victor had prepared into his spatial storage.

The time is almost up.

I flew back to the mainland and quietly arrived in Weihai.

They then quietly left the high seas.

As soon as it got dark, he launched the cruiser into the open sea.

Ivanka's small team was also on the way.

Responsible for navigating the boat.

The ship was moving quickly toward the Bohai Bay.

Half an hour later, he was spotted outside.

We've communicated before.

After a brief exchange, the people from the mainland were allowed to board the ship.

Meanwhile, the helicopter gradually boarded the ship.

Soon the ships were taken over by people from the mainland.

After the communication, Ivanka's team was taken off the ship and directly to Hong Kong Island.

These people will leave from here.

There are concerns that Ivanka and others might leak information if warships enter port.

Now that the warships are on the high seas, the situation is clear; in any case, no one saw the warships enter the port.

Yang Xiaole accompanied these people during the handover.

The journey of less than 100 kilometers took most of the night to tugboats to bring the warship into the prepared dock.

There is a covered shed on the dock, which is not visible to satellites.

Once the people on board are familiar with the place, they will sail the boat to the port of Huludao at night.

That's a port specifically for docking large blackfish, and it's also a supply port, so there's absolutely no problem with its safety.

……

A lot happened this year.

The semiconductor foundry project negotiated with mainland China has also been established in Shenzhen.

The mainland company contributed land and policy benefits, holding 30% of the total shares. This 30% stake was also acquired through various cross-shareholding channels by the mainland. On the surface, it is still solely owned by Yang Xiaole's company.

It covers an area of ​​20 hectares and is valued at 1.2 million yuan.

Yang Xiaole's investment of $3 million accounted for the majority.

This made it the largest contract manufacturing plant in Asia.

He already holds more than 35% of the shares in companies like Intel, plus his operations.

These large semiconductor companies gave the company huge orders.

This was the treatment TSMC received back then.

Now he's taken it.

This year was also a year of great change and change.

The decline of the Russian bear is already evident, and there have been protests in many areas, with calls for a separation.

Although it hasn't been finalized, the general trend is basically irreversible.

That year, the Bald Eagle felt that the Russian Bear's power was waning and changed its attitude towards the mainland, canceling many high-end cooperation agreements.

It has been reinstated to an embargo state.

Of course, transactions in the low- and mid-end industries are still proceeding normally.

Meanwhile, Xingxing and Yueyue were admitted to Tsinghua University and Peking University respectively, and both received government-sponsored opportunities to study abroad.

Xingxing went to America, while Yueyue went to the Royal Academy in England.

However, Yang Xiaole did not use the government's money.

I paid for the trip myself.

The children of my older brother and sister have also graduated and gotten married one after another.

……

1991 12 Month 21 Day.

Yang Xiaole boarded a plane bound for Russia.

Because he knew that today was the day the Russians signed the agreement, and also four days before the official announcement of the separation.

In Moscow, Yang Xiaole brought together the city's leaders.

Huang Xintong, Huang Qiujing, Viktor, Usoyan and Ivanov.

As for Ivanka...

After several years of operation, it finally officially took over on December 5th.

He was also in charge of signing this agreement.

It was already afternoon when Yang Xiaole got off the plane.

Having made prior arrangements, the group gathered at Huang Qiujing's manor here.

The security outside is very tight.

As everyone waited anxiously, Yang Xiaole stepped into the manor.

"gentlemen!"

Upon seeing him approach, Ivanka and the others all stood up.

Huang Qiujing and Huang Xintong sat there with smiles on their faces, watching the two of them.

Yang Xiaole approached and smiled, "Alright, everyone, sit down!"

However, these people did not move.

Instead, they waited for him to come and sit next to Huang Qiujing and Huang Xintong before taking their seats.

Yang Xiaole looked at the two people beside her and smiled, "How have you been lately?"

Huang Qiujing shrugged: "It's alright! It's finally over. I didn't expect what you said would actually come true. We've made a fortune this time."

Yang Xiaole smiled and nodded.

He glanced at Ivanka and the others and said, "Alright, Ivanka might be very busy later. We'll have a quick meeting, and you can go now."

Ivanka agreed: "Okay!"

Yang Xiaole looked at the group, pondering where to begin.

Finally, he turned his gaze to Huang Qiujing beside him: "What's the current situation with the layout here?"

He only knew the general idea.

Huang Qiujing smiled upon hearing this: "With everyone's cooperation, we occupy 70% of the market in the mineral and energy sector, and 60% of the market share among large-scale enterprises and companies. The official exchange rate is currently 170 rubles to 1 ruble, while the black market exchange rate has reached 3800 rubles. Of course, we cannot liquidate our assets for the time being."

Yang Xiaole nodded slightly upon hearing this: "Okay, I understand. Once the Russian bear splits up, you can continue to hold the energy shares for the next few years, but you will need to sell them all."

When the future emperor comes to power, these energy oligarchs will all be taken advantage of.

He certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to continue holding onto it.

We'll find some international buyers to take over when the time comes.

Vanta used this method to make money back then.

"As for the company, have you prepared all the technical data and personnel I asked you to compile?"

Huang Qiujing nodded: "Many companies have already gone bankrupt, and technical data and some important equipment have been transported to Er Mao through Wusuoyang, and then shipped to Hong Kong Island and the mainland by sea."

Yang Xiaole nodded slightly upon hearing this.

Now that Ivanka is in power, he can no longer do these things.

These kinds of things are now being handled by two mafia bosses, Usoyan and Ivanov.

So far, we have sent more than two thousand scientists from various industries, not to mention countless engineers and senior technicians.

Half of them were kept by their own company, and the other half were transported to the mainland.

These are referring to the people and equipment on the Russian side.

As for Er Mao's side, there haven't been any major moves for the time being, since that will be his base of operations in the future.

Of course, just to be on the safe side, a lot of people, data and equipment were transported to Hong Kong Island, Myanmar and the mainland.

He didn't spend these past few years in mainland China for nothing.

Meanwhile, the people from Myanmar were secretly transported to the mainland.

Of course, this number is somewhat different from the 1.6 scientists who emerged back then.

But it takes time.

The most concentrated period for these scientists to leave is this year and next year, and they will continue to leave gradually thereafter.

We'll slowly snatch them up later.

Yang Xiaole was pondering over there.

This strategic move with the Russians has proven to be quite worthwhile.

If he sells these assets gradually over the next few years, he will hold more than ten trillion US dollars in his hands in the future.

With so much money, even thirty years from now, a slight movement of it would be a terrifying amount.

This money can generate more money.

The future will see a shift to a money-spraying model.

Pulling herself back to reality, she looked at Viktor: "How's the surgical missile launch system?"

Viktor laughed upon hearing this.

"Thanks to the fact that many of the scientists who left this time are experts in this field, we intercepted quite a few. The system has been developed and we have begun to secretly modify the previous system. It can be cut off at any time, and we will be able to improve these systems within the next two years."

Yang Xiaole smiled and nodded after listening.

He then looked at Ivanka and asked, "Have you been contacted by anyone from the Bald Eagles recently, asking them to destroy these things?"

Ivanka smiled and nodded: "Yes! And I've already agreed."

Yang Xiaole smiled.

Agreeing to these people's demands was naturally a delaying tactic.

With him around, how could it possibly be destroyed?

Keep them all.

It's always better to have it in your own hands than in someone else's. If you really don't like someone, you can just give them a piece of your mind.

Well, that's good too.

Then he looked at Huang Xintong next to him.

"Things must be doing quite well over there!"

He still needs to stabilize things a bit more with Er Mao.

Such operations inevitably lead to some people from Da Mao going to Er Mao's side, but overall it can still be controlled.

When the time comes, Ivanka will just have to use her methods.

Huang Xintong smiled and nodded: "It's not bad there now. At first, very few people planted it, but more started to plant it in the second year. This year was the peak year, with 70% of the grain seeds being used. I estimate that we won't have enough seeds next year. In addition, some foreign companies have already contacted us about providing seeds, but we have refused them."

Yang Xiaole smiled and nodded, "Never mind them, we don't even have enough for ourselves right now!"

The mainland has also benefited from this in the past two years, consuming half of the supply.

There's really no need to worry so much.

Degeneration takes time.

Even the third generation yields more than normal seeds, so we could use that time to gather more seeds.
