Super Rich: Starting the game by going back ten years to buy Bitcoin

I got back to the company after 4 p.m.

Li Yichen pushed open the office door and went inside.

Ji Yanran was sitting at her workstation processing documents when she heard the noise and looked up.

"Boss, where did you go just now?"

She asked the question quite casually, her fingers still resting on the keyboard.

Li Yichen walked to his boss's chair, plopped down, and sank into the leather.

"He went out and did a good deed."

He waved his hand dismissively.

Ji Yanran stared at him for two seconds.

I didn't ask any further questions.

She knew Li Yichen too well—if he wanted to talk, he would, without being asked. If he didn't want to talk, asking him more wouldn't help.

She lowered her head again and began typing on the keyboard.

The only sounds in the office were the clatter of keyboards and the faint hum of the air conditioner.

Li Yichen leaned back in his chair and took out his phone.

I scrolled through short videos for a few minutes, got bored, and then quit.

Just as I was about to turn off the screen, my phone suddenly vibrated.

The bell rang.

Li Yichen glanced at the caller ID.

I don't recognize the number.

The place of origin is Shanghai.

He hovered his thumb over the red hang-up button, paused for a second, and then pressed the green answer button.

"Feed?"

A middle-aged man's voice came from the other end of the phone; he was very polite and had a professional enthusiasm.

"Hello, are you Mr. Li Yichen?"

"I am."

"Hello Mr. Li, I am Manager Wang from the Sales Department of Haixing Yacht Manufacturing Company."

The other person paused.

"Three months ago, you ordered a 50-meter luxury yacht from our company, do you remember?"

Li Yichen was stunned for a moment.

yacht?

He quickly went through it in his mind.

It seems... that's true.

Back then, he went on a spending spree to upgrade the system, and later he even got a superyacht ordered for him through an agent. Over time, he almost forgot about it.

"Remember."

Li Yichen said.

"The 'Xinghai' you ordered has been completed and is currently docked at Berth No. 3 of Donggang Wharf in Shanghai."

Manager Wang's voice was filled with barely concealed excitement.

"All the formalities have been completed, and we are just waiting for you to come and inspect and sign for it."

Li Yichen glanced out the window.

It was still daylight.

"today?"

"Yes, that's fine today. We have staff on duty all day."

Manager Wang quickly replied.

"However, if it's inconvenient for you today, you can come tomorrow."

Li Yichen thought about it.

"Tomorrow."

"Okay, okay!"

Manager Wang readily agreed.

"Then I'll wait for you at the pier at 10 a.m. tomorrow?"

"OK."

"By the way, Mr. Li, would you like me to send you the relevant documents and acceptance checklist for the yacht in advance?"

"Send it."

"Okay, I'll send it right away."

The phone hangs up.

Li Yichen threw his phone on the table.

Ji Yanran looked up from the pile of documents.

She just overheard the conversation.

Although I didn't hear the whole thing, I caught the key words.

yacht.

Custom-made.

pier.

"Boss."

She put down her pen.

"When did you... buy a yacht?"

Li Yichen leaned back in his chair and tapped his fingers on the armrest.

Three months ago.

"How much?"

"A few hundred million, I forget the exact amount."

Ji Yanran opened her mouth.

Several hundred million.

forget.

She couldn't speak.

It took her several seconds to find her voice.

"Why are you buying a yacht...?"

"Let's play."

Li Yichen spoke as if it were perfectly reasonable.

"When I have some free time, I'll go for a spin on the sea."

He paused.

"I'll try sea fishing too; I've had this idea for a while now."

Ji Yanran's eyes lit up.

She jumped up and walked around the desk to Li Yichen.

"Boss!"

"Um?"

"You have to take me with you when you go out to sea!"

She spoke quickly, with a hint of urgency.

"I've never experienced a superyacht worth hundreds of millions of yuan."

Li Yichen smiled when he saw her like that.

"OK."

"I'll call you when we go out to sea another day."

"real?"

Ji Yanran stared at him.

You can't lie to me.

"I'm not lying to you."

"Is it settled then?"

"It's a deal."

Ji Yanran was still worried.

"Boss, don't forget."

"rest assured."

Li Yichen waved his hand.

"I can't forget it."

"Don't worry at all."

Ji Yanran was finally satisfied and turned to walk back to her workstation.

Before sitting down, he turned back and added another sentence.

"If you dare forget, I'll... I'll go on strike."

Li Yichen laughed.

"Fine, you can go on strike."

It was five o'clock.

Off-get off work time.

Li Yichen stood up and grabbed his car keys.

"I'm gone."

"Boss, you can go now. I'll finish what I'm doing."

Ji Yanran didn't even look up; she was still typing on the keyboard.

Li Yichen pushed open the door and went out.

People were already walking out of the corridor, and when they saw him come out, they all greeted him.

"Is Mr. Li off work?"

"Um."

"Take care, Mr. Li."

Li Yichen nodded and stepped into the elevator.

Press down one layer.

The elevator is going down.

The metal car was quiet, with only the low hum of the motor running.

Li Yichen watched the floor numbers jump up and down.

He was still thinking about the yacht.

Fifty meters long.

Several hundred million.

I need to go check it out tomorrow.

The elevator doors opened.

Li Yichen walked slowly to the parking lot.

His U8 was parked in its designated spot, its black paint giving it a matte finish in the dim light.

Li Yichen walked over and opened the car door.

I had just sat down when my phone vibrated.

He took it out and looked at it.

It was a WeChat message from Xue Shanshan.

"Brother Li, don't forget about dinner tonight."

A kitten peeking out of the window emoji followed.

Li Yichen then remembered.

The promise I made in the stairwell at noon.

He responded with an "OK" gesture.

"Remember."

"I still have some things to finish, it might take me more than ten minutes."

Xue Shanshan replied quickly.

"Brother Li, could you wait for me in the parking lot for a moment?"

"OK."

Li Yichen types.

"I'll wait for you in the car."

"Thank you, Brother Li!"

Xue Shanshan replied with a bowing emoji.

Li Yichen put down his phone.

He leaned back in his seat and didn't start the car.

The air in the garage was a bit stuffy.

He rolled down the car window.

A cool breeze blew in.

Li Yichen took out a cigarette case, pulled one out, and put it in his mouth.

He lit it and took a puff here and there.

Time passed second by second.

People gradually arrived at the parking lot and drove away.

The sounds of the engine, the door closing, and the tires screeching over the ground.

Li Yichen watched as the cars drove away one by one.

About twelve or thirteen minutes later.

Xue Shanshan walked out of the lobby on the first floor.

She changed out of her business suit and wore a light blue dress with a white cardigan over it.

Her hair was down, draped over her shoulders.

He was carrying a canvas bag.

She stood at the elevator entrance, looking around.

Li Yichen honked the horn.

A short, sharp sound.

Xue Shanshan looked over in the direction of the sound.

When she saw the U8, her eyes lit up, and she jogged over.

The high heels clicked crisply on the ground.

Li Yichen pushed open the car door and got out.

I went around to the passenger side and opened the car door.

"Get in the car."

Xue Shanshan was stunned for a moment.

She didn't expect Li Yichen to get out of the car and open the door for her.

"Thank you, Brother Li."

She quickly sat down.

Li Yichen closed the car door and walked back to the driver's seat.

I opened the car door and got in.

Fasten your seatbelt.

Start the car.

The motor emitted a low hum.

The car slowly drove out of the parking space.

At the other end of the parking lot, several long-time employees who had just finished get off work were standing next to a car.

One of them pointed in the direction of Li Yichen's car.

"Was that... that new girl from the administration department?"

"It seems so."

"Did she get into the boss's car?"

"It looks like it to me."

"The boss even got out of the car to open the door for her?"

The group looked at each other.

Even their eyes have changed.

"What's her relationship with the boss?"

"have no idea."

"But for the boss to personally open the car door, it must be something special."

The discussion was very quiet.

But it was loud enough for several people nearby to hear.

Xue Shanshan knew nothing about this.

She sat in the passenger seat, looking a little reserved.

He twisted and turned the strap of the canvas bag between his fingers.

The car drove out of the underground parking garage and merged into the evening traffic.

The streets of Shanghai are always so congested.

red light.

Li Yichen stepped on the brakes.

He turned to look at Xue Shanshan.

"Where would you like to eat?"

Xue Shanshan raised her head.

"Brother Li, it's a deal I'm treating today."

"You decide."

Li Yichen said.

"Where do you want to go?"

Xue Shanshan bit her lip.

She thought about it.

"I know a place... it's just a food stall, but I think the food is pretty good."

She paused, then looked at Li Yichen cautiously.

"I hope... you won't mind."

Li Yichen smiled.

"I don't mind."

"real?"

"real."

Xue Shanshan breathed a sigh of relief.

She gave me an address.

"There's a night market on that old street, just turn in."

"OK."

The green light comes on.

Li Yichen stepped on the electric switch.

The car moved forward slowly.
