Chapter 306 Show off
In this era, there are very few motor vehicles on the road, and most people travel by bicycle. Even if two people's cars are parked on the side of the road, it does not affect the passage of other people.
"There has to be a reason for inviting me to dinner. Tell me, what is it?"
Lin Shu pulled on the handbrake, leaned back, and looked at Deng Jiaming with interest.
Deng Jiaming patted Lin Shu's black car, with envy in his eyes. He would have followed them to the New York Stock Exchange earlier in the beautiful country, otherwise he could order an imported car when he came back.
The imported cars of this era are very impressive when running on the road.
It's just a pity.
Wiping away the regret in his heart, Deng Jiaming thought of the hundreds of thousands of dollars he had brought back from his beautiful country, and his gloomy mood instantly dissipated.
He took out a cigarette from his pocket and held it in his mouth, looking a little proud, "I heard that Gu Jiu is going to open a battery factory?"
"Yes."
Gu Jiu wanted to set up a battery factory. He had passed the review from above and all the procedures had been completed. He could find out with just a little inquiry. Lin Shu felt there was no need to deny the matter.
"The money you brought back from your beautiful country is more than enough to run a battery factory. However, I think running a battery factory requires higher technology and requires a lot of hard work. It is not as profitable as the pressure cooker factory I set up."
Pressure cooker?
Lin Shu was slightly stunned after hearing this. In this era, electricity was not yet connected to the grid, so it was definitely not as stable as in later generations, where rice cookers and pressure cookers were prevalent.
In this era when electricity is not cheap, pressure cookers are very popular among housewives because they take less time to cook than ordinary pots and the rice is softer.
It can be said that in the next twenty years, pressure cookers will be the first choice for cooking in every family.
It's just that the battery factory is not as profitable as the pressure cooker factory. Lin Shu disagrees with this. As long as the technology is updated and iterated, the battery factory was still a key industry supported by the state before her death in her last life.
"What? You haven't heard of a pressure cooker. Let me tell you, a pressure cooker is"
Deng Jia's obviously arrogant expression was swaying outside the car window. Lin Shu frowned slightly. The boiling point was one hundred degrees. Of course she knew that a pressure cooker could speed up the process.
"Now that your factory procedures have been completed? Where is the factory location? I will visit your factory when I have time. Maybe it has good prospects. I can't help but invest in a pressure cooker factory to compete with you."
Deng Jiaming: "."
He swallowed and asked in disbelief: "You want to compete with me?"
He originally wanted to show off, but if it backfired and aroused Lin Shu's desire to win, wouldn't he have shot himself in the foot?
Lin Shu didn't have that much energy to build a pressure cooker factory, but she just saw Deng Jiaming deliberately showing off in front of her and deliberately teasing him.
She asked seriously: "Has your pressure cooker factory registered a brand? If so, I can avoid having the same name as you when registering. When your pressure cooker factory opens, remember to let me know so that I can visit and learn from it. .”
"This, this is not good, the domestic market is only so big. If I create a pressure cooker brand and you try to get involved, then you can't compete in the market and compete on price?" Deng Jiaming became anxious.
He really just wanted to show off today, and he never thought that his suicide attempt would provide Lin Shu with ideas.
Lin Shu seemed to be worried about the market at all. "You and I only have a share of the domestic market. There is still a lot of room. If the products we produce cannot be sold domestically, we can open up overseas markets."
Deng Jiaming stared anxiously, and was not in the mood to compete with Gu Jiu at this time, "No, overseas markets are not so easy to open. Otherwise, you should go back and think about it again. After all, you are in a clothing factory now. You are busy enough, and your restaurant and hotel need your attention to manage.”
Lin Shu restarted the car and smiled at the panicked Deng Jiaming outside the car: "You earn hard money by doing everything yourself. A truly smart person is good at managing time and managing people. I don't have time to manage, so I can recruit Management talents help me manage the factory.”
"Hey, don't leave in a hurry. Let's talk about it carefully. You can't decide this matter so hastily!"
Deng Jiaming wanted to slap himself at this moment. Why are you so mean? Why don't you read the almanac when you go out today?
If you insist on going out when it is not appropriate to go out, you are shooting yourself in the foot.
Regardless of how he tried to persuade him to stay, Lin Shu turned the steering wheel and turned out. Ignoring the people shouting behind him, he stepped on the accelerator and ran away.
After returning home and parking the car, Lin Shu took the bag and got out of the car. From a distance, he saw Liu Xiao'e doing something in the corner of the wall. She walked over and saw Liu Xiao'e transplanting bougainvillea in a big flower pot, "Mom, what are you doing? Are there bougainvillea for sale this season?"
"The wall at the back is too monotonous. It's not beautiful at all when we stand in the living room on the second floor and look down. Someone happened to be selling flowers here today. I saw some bougainvillea and bought a few. I want to plant them on the wall. Next. When these bougainvillea grow up and cover the wall, won’t they look more pleasing to the eye than when they are bare?”
At first, the front of this building was the facade, and the back was designed with stairs to go up to the house. It can be said that only the family members walked to the back. For safety, a wall was built at the back.
As Liu Xiao'e said, the rough red brick walls are not as beautiful as they are, but if the walls are covered with green plants or decorated with small flowers, they will be very beautiful.
At least it's visually enjoyable.
Lin Shu was looking forward to it.
"Mom, how many years will it take for these plants to grow up? How about we buy a few more and transplant them?"
"Ordinarily, it's almost done. If you think it grows slowly, it's okay to buy a few more."
Mother and daughter stood chatting under the wall. Under the window on the second floor, Erbao saw Lin Shu and shouted happily, keeping shouting: "Mom, Mom"
Hearing his daughter's cry, Gu Jiu walked to the window and looked down. He happened to meet Lin Shu's eyes, and the two smiled in tacit understanding.
Lin Shu turned back to Liu Xiao'e and said, "Mom, I'll go up first."
There is no mistake in every song, one post, one content, one 6 one, one book, one book, take a look!
Liu Xiao'e smiled and waved her hand: "Go, go, Brother Jiu is raising two children by himself. I'm worried that he won't be able to take care of them. You can help him take care of the children when you go back."
The daughter and son-in-law have a good relationship, and the mother-in-law is probably the one who wants to see this scene the most.
As soon as Lin Shu entered the door, Gu Jiu took a copy of the Wall Street Journal and handed it to her. He pointed at something excitedly and said, "Daughter-in-law, look here, our stock has risen by the daily limit for seven times in a row, and our principal has also reached the daily limit." It’s almost doubled in these seven days.”
Lin Shu took the Wall Street Journal from him. This newspaper was the Asian edition founded in Hong Kong City. "Where did you get this newspaper?"
"I asked a friend to bring it here from Hong Kong City."
As for what kind of friends, Gu Jiu didn't elaborate.
Lin Shu looked at the date of the newspaper carefully. It was from four days ago. No wonder it was brought from the port city by someone. If it was the same day, his friend would not have been able to deliver it to him so smoothly.
However, for stock news, the news from four days ago is also very precious, at least it allows them to know the situation of their stocks.
Lin Shu took the newspaper and sat on the sofa to read it carefully. After reading it, he and Dabao looked at each other, and both of them had smiles in their eyes.
"On the way back from collecting money today, I met Deng Jiaming. If that guy knew that the stock had gone up, I don't know how angry he would be."
"When you met him when you came back, what did he say to you? If that kid doesn't show off, he won't take the initiative to strike up a conversation."
Not to mention, Gu Jiu still knew him very well.
"He really came to show off in front of me. He heard that you were planning to build a battery factory, so he built a pressure cooker factory."
"Pressure cooker factory?"
Gu Jiu was obviously surprised, but considering that the boy brought back more than 100,000 dollars from abroad, it was not that boy's style to not bother with anything.
"Yes, I couldn't stand his arrogant look, so I deliberately said that I also wanted to set up a pressure cooker factory to compete with him. Unexpectedly, it scared him."
Gu Jiu clicked his tongue: "Your suggestion is good. If I hadn't been busy with the battery factory recently, I would have really wanted to build a pressure cooker factory to compete with him."
"You two are really childish. Mazi said you didn't deal with each other since you were young, but now I finally believe it." Lin Shu shook his head and didn't take it to heart.
When it was later found out that Gu Jiu actually built a pressure cooker factory in order to compete with Deng Jiaming, Gu Jiu's pressure cooker factory had already developed electric pressure cookers, rice cookers, etc.
