The Birth of Shanghai's First Conglomerate

Chapter 23 Paramela
The two long-lost golden dice have reappeared.

The first one landed on the number four, and the second one landed on the number two.

[Congratulations, host, you have received a six-fold random boost.]

[Ding! Your Alipay account has received 96 million yuan, leaving a balance of 97 million yuan.]

It's wonderful, absolutely wonderful.

This is only the first day of the recharge event.

It seems that his previous decision to insist on investing in a second branch in the best location in Beixin'an has been well-received.

That's quite correct.

Although the first day will definitely see the highest foot traffic due to the May Day holiday, it will decline somewhat later.

But earning nearly a million in a single day, this feeling requires rewarding yourself with something you like to calm down.

Men love cars, and he's no exception. He didn't have the means before, but now he can take a look.

As a small business owner who spans both the fruit industry and the entertainment industry, how can he keep driving his wife's car?
That's not appropriate.

Fortunately, mobile internet is so developed now, and there are all kinds of apps on mobile phones.

He then called Song Yanxi over to watch it together.

Since there were no outsiders in the office, he pulled his wife to sit on his lap.

"Yanxi, which car do you think I should choose if I buy one?"

Are you looking to buy a car?

"Of course, the Audi at home was bought for you. It wouldn't be appropriate for me to drive it every day."

"Oh okay."

After thinking about it, Song Yanxi also felt that he should buy one for himself.

Open the Autohome app on your phone, and you'll find all kinds of cars.

There is also a detailed introduction.

I'm once again amazed by the power of the mobile internet.

"Honey, which type do you want to buy?"

“For family use, your Audi is enough. I mainly want to buy a bigger car, preferably one that will be more comfortable for long-distance driving.”

"So what's your budget?"

"Five or six hundred thousand, even a used car that's only been driven for a few years would be fine."

There's a wide range of new cars to choose from at this price point.

For long-distance driving, sedans are undoubtedly the most comfortable, while SUVs are the most comfortable to ride in due to their spaciousness.

After looking around for a while, Song Yanxi selected three target cars.

These are the premium versions of the BMW 530 and Mercedes-Benz E300, and the mid-to-large-sized Lexus GX.

All things considered, Chen Pingsheng still prefers the Lexus GX the most.

There's plenty of space.

"Honey, when do you want to go buy it?"

"Wait for two more days."

Chen Pingsheng suppressed his slightly agitated heart.

Fortunately, my wife was right beside me, so I could have sex with her anytime I got carried away.

Although they have been married for six years.

Chen Pingsheng's love for her remained undiminished; on the contrary, he found her more and more beautiful.

They get extremely excited when they get things done.

He felt that the most accomplished thing he had ever done in his life was marrying Song Yanxi.

The ancients said that a virtuous wife brings prosperity to three generations, and that's no exaggeration at all.

Two days later, after the second store deposited another 500,000 yuan, Chen Pingsheng took Song Yanxi to look at cars.

At the price point he chose, he could only buy a mid-range luxury car; anything more high-end would cost at least a million.

Song Yanxi just goes along with him; she's gotten used to it now.

My husband seems to have some other sources of income, but he has never touched the profits from the fruit shop.

According to him, that small amount of profit was all for her own living expenses.

Let her have flowers, take care of her, whatever she likes.

This man is just too good; I have to reward him with a pink nurse outfit when he gets home tonight.

It has to be a vacuum type.

The two first went to the largest used car market in North Sinan.

To be honest, a used luxury car that has been driven for two or three years, as long as it hasn't been flooded or damaged, can be driven for another four or five years without any problems.

With a budget of 500,000 to 600,000 yuan, the only options for a new car are the BMW 5 Series and the Mercedes-Benz E-Class.

For used cars, you can choose a BMW 7 Series or a Land Rover Range Rover Sport.

After much deliberation, Chen Pingsheng fell in love with a Porsche Panamera that had clocked 0 kilometers. It had only been registered for two years, had never been transferred to another owner, and the used car dealership absolutely guaranteed that it had no accident or water damage repair records.

He's the kind of person who can tell at a glance whether someone has been in an accident or not.

This is a real luxury car.

The 2.9T executive extended version has a new car price of about 150 million yuan.

A secondhand one costs only 750,000, which is half the price.

Chen Pingsheng patted the car door; it was clear his wife liked it too.

That's normal; what woman could resist a white Panamera?

Just look at the admiring look in his wife's eyes, I have to win her over.

His first car was a white Panamera.

Even though it's secondhand, it won't affect my ability to drive it around.

Getting a license plate is easy if you have a few connections, just like housing purchase restrictions, which only apply to those with genuine housing needs.

For those who have the ability to speculate on real estate, it's simply a matter of going through a few more procedures.

Song Yanxi's love for this new car is simply overflowing.

While sitting in the driver's seat, that pert butt kept shifting left and right.

This is her family's new car.

Just by parking in the yard or opening the car door to get out, you can attract countless envious glances.

"Honey, I never imagined that one day my family would be able to drive a luxury car like a Porsche."

There are many things you haven't thought of.

Chen Pingsheng smiled and said, "By July at the latest, I will definitely let you move into the big house you bought yourself."

"Really? It feels like a dream."

Song Yanxi felt it was all so unreal; the changes in her family were happening too fast.

In less than six months, she was no longer the only one driving an Audi.

My husband even drives a Panamera, and more importantly, he owns five large fruit supermarkets with very stable business.

Life seems to be getting better and better.

“Honey, yesterday Dujuan was telling me that women need to take better care of themselves. She said that women age quickly, and men change their minds quickly too.”

Song Yanxi looked at him with a half-smile; this topic was a huge trap.

Women's thought processes are so strange; one second they're marveling at how much better life is going to be.

The next second she could say that men become bad when they have money.

"She takes good care of herself all the time, so you can go with her. I reckon that when I'm so old that I've almost lost all my teeth, you can still sit on me and pretend to be Diao Chan."

"Tch..." Song Yanxi gave him a charmingly disdainful look. Her fascination with various female warrior costumes was also to add more fun to their marriage.

Those kinds of things can only be talked about at night; you wouldn't talk about them in broad daylight.

She gets shy too, you know.

“You know, Du Juan is quite interesting. She only makes six or seven thousand a month, but spends thirty or forty thousand a year on beauty salons. I think she’s really crazy.”

"so tall?"

Song Yanxi nodded. "She also said that this is very little. Compared to those rich women who spend millions a year on skincare, 30,000 or 40,000 is only enough to maintain facial skincare for a year."

"That beauty salon is really making a killing."

“Who says otherwise? I went with her yesterday and topped up a 5,000 yuan membership card.”

What was said in jest was taken seriously by the listener.

With this golden touch, Chen Pingsheng's best business is undoubtedly making money from the future.

That is, selling prepaid cards.

According to Du Juan's understanding, those who spend three to five thousand yuan at high-end beauty salons are usually small-time customers.

Those with tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands in revenue are the real big clients.

If he could invest in a beauty salon, it would definitely be just as good as a fruit shop.

More importantly, he really wants to open his own luxury beauty salon for his wife in the future.

Of course, he was very familiar with the fruit shop.

Beauty salons are different; they require technical skills.

The industry has high barriers to entry; it's definitely not something you can do just by having money.

Let's put this idea aside for now and see if there's a suitable opportunity in the future.

Let's get the fruit shop up and running first, then we can talk about buying the house.

Only after the house is settled can he truly make large investments without any worries.

As for now, settling down is the top priority.
