Chapter 239 Life is not easy
Qin Shaoyan sent the happy Zhou Dao away and agreed on a time when he would go to work after the year. The two would talk then.
Although Zhou Dao came to monitor Qin Shaoyan, the relationship between the two was like friends.
We are all working as workers, so why make things difficult for each other.
Qin Shaoyan glanced at the time, said hello to the company's employees, and went out directly.
The company's driver was already on vacation, and Qin Shaoyan decisively chose Wuling Hongguang as his car.
Purely because Wuling Hongguang is large and spacious, and it is easy to drive.
As the Spring Festival approaches, there are fewer cars on the streets. Qin Shaoyan slowly drives to the train station.
Finding a place to park the car, Qin Shaoyan got out of the car and followed the overpass to the station square.
At this time, people were coming and going in the square, everyone was carrying big and small bags, and they followed the crowd towards the waiting hall.
They have to board the train back home and go through a long and bumpy journey, just to get back home before New Year's Eve and enjoy the leisure time with the flavor of the New Year.
Qin Shaoyan came to the station not to take a ride home, but to pick up someone.
Because the journey home is difficult, not only do I have to ride a green car for a day and night, but I also have to transfer to a long distance and it takes two to three hours to get home.
So Qin Shaoyan's father and mother decided after discussion that the whole family would stay in the capital for the New Year to save their children the hassle of going back and forth.
At the same time, it is also a trip to the capital to relax.
The sun hung high in the sky, but I still couldn't feel any warmth. The strong and cold wind blew from time to time, causing the exposed skin to feel a little raw.
Qin Shaoyan stood on tiptoes in the cold wind and looked at the exit, waiting for his parents to arrive, rubbing his hands and occasionally breathing through his mouth.
Seeing that the arrival time of the train has arrived, a crowd of people suddenly came out of the station.
Qin Shaoyan immediately cheered up and stared at everyone who came out carefully, for fear of missing them.
After a few minutes of waiting, two familiar human-shaped hills were squeezed out from the exit, and Qin Shaoyan hurriedly walked forward to greet them.
"Dad, Mom!" Qin Shaoyan shouted as he walked through the crowd in reverse direction and walked closer. Then he was dumbfounded.
"What are you bringing?!"
Qin Shaoyan stared at the luggage and packages on his parents' bodies in shock.
The big bag on the back is several heads taller, there is a backpack hanging on the chest, and two hands are carrying four or five bags.
"Why do you bring so many things?!" Qin Shaoyan quickly reached out to unload the bag on his mother's body. He almost missed it when he took it, and the heavy package fell directly to the ground.
My mother gasped and complained: "It's all thanks to your father, everything has to be turned over."
My father retorted with a dark face: "You have stuffed things into your bag too much."
"Don't bring so much next time." Qin Shaoyan had a headache, "I don't lack anything, and you guys won't be tired of carrying these big and small bags."
"Just a few I have clothes and two quilts. Is it cold in winter?" My mother took off her bags and relaxed, asking with concern.
"Not cold, not cold." Qin Shaoyan said while hanging the big package on himself, "I happened to drive here, otherwise it would be difficult to get it."
Dad stretched his neck and glanced at it, and asked hurriedly: "Where is the car? Where is it?"
"We have to cross the road. There is no place to park in front of this station." Qin Shaoyan gestured while carrying a heavy bag. After a while, "Let's go across the overpass first."
"Can the car hold these things?" Mom asked with some worry, "What if they can't fit in?"
" You can definitely put it down, the van I drive," Qin Shaoyan responded while walking quickly.
He only felt that the package on his body was getting heavier and heavier, and he just wanted to unload the things quickly and throw them into the car.
All the packages from his mother were transferred to Qin Shaoyan, and he also took two packages from his father.
The heavy package buried Qin Shaoyan's upper body, leaving only his eyes looking at the road.
With someone to share the luggage, my father straightened up and gave all the bags in his hands to Qin Shaoyan's mother.
A family of three crossed the overpass and walked two to three hundred meters before finding the parked van.
Qin Shaoyan quickly unloaded the package, took out the key, opened the rear door, and loaded the luggage there
"Well, the van is good, and the space is big." Dad Qin Donghai kept praising while helping to stack the luggage, "This van is good, sturdy and easy to use. Where did the van come from?"
"Company I'll drive out the car and use it." Qin Shaoyan said smoothly, "You two get in the car first."
My mother Xun Xiaohui asked a little worriedly: "Is it okay if you use the public car?" Did you make a mistake?"
Qin Shaoyan was dumbfounded, "Mom, I'm the boss of the company, what's wrong with using a car?"
"Oh, that's okay," Xun Xiaohui smiled. The son is successful and has become a boss.”
Qin Donghai interrupted and said: "Every boss drives a car, but I've never seen any boss drive a van, so why don't you brag about it?"
Qin Shaoyan was stunned, "I'm really the boss."
"Get in the car." Qin Donghai waved his hand and got into the passenger seat first.
Qin Shaoyan helped his mother get into the car, closed the door and sat in the driver's seat, "Is it cold or not? I'll turn on the air conditioner to blow some hot air first."
"It's not cold or cold. " Qin Donghai looked at the inside of the car carefully and nodded, "It looks brand new. It hasn't been used a few times. "
"I've only driven this car twice, so why would anyone drive it?" Qin Shaoyan started the car.
"Is this the only car in your company?" Qin Donghai asked curiously.
“There are five of them, two business cars and two Audi cars.” Qin Shaoyan replied casually, “Those cars are used to entertain customers, and this one is used to pull goods.”
Qin Donghai said expressionlessly: "Drive a car to entertain guests, and drive a van to pick up your parents."
"..." Qin Shaoyan angrily kicked the accelerator and muttered , "What's wrong with the van? As a company boss, I usually drive a van. As long as it can be used."
"If you feel that the ostentation is not enough, I will drive an extended-length Lincoln to pick you up next time."
"No need, you can afford a Santana first." Qin Donghai poked his head and looked at the streets of the capital. "This capital has changed a lot."
"Well, have you been to BJ?" Qin Shaoyan asked in surprise, "Why didn't I know?"
"You were at that time I'm only two or three years old, so of course I don't remember it." Qin Donghai sighed, "I went to the Forbidden City and took a ride on the subway that time."
"I'll take you there in a few days. "Let's take a look at the Summer Palace." Qin Shaoyan said with a smile, "I will accompany you to look around during the Chinese New Year holiday. I have plenty of time."
Xun Xiaohui asked worriedly: "Aren't you the boss of the company? Are you not open for business?"
Qin Shaoyan said nonchalantly: "There are employees here. Besides, it doesn't matter if the company has me or not."< br>
“With or without you, it won’t matter?” Xun Xiaohui was a little confused, “Then what does this company want you to do?” He could only explain, "I am the boss and the major shareholder. The company cannot survive without me."
Qin Donghai turned his head and glanced at his son, "The major shareholder does not provide money The most? Where did you get the money?”
"It's not my money." Qin Shaoyan explained, "It's the money given by investors."
Qin Donghai nodded, "I remembered, you told me last time."
"You just turn investors' money into your own money, and then invest it in the company and become the major shareholder, right?"
"Dad, please let me drive well." Qin Shaoyan I couldn't stand it any longer and decisively stopped the topic.
Qin Donghai and Xun Xiaohui kept communicating along the way, while Qin Shaoyan concentrated on driving the whole time without saying a word.
Driving back to the community where Qin Shaoyan rented, he found a spot to park the car, and the family of three carried large and small bags upstairs.
After entering the room, Qin Donghai and Xun Xiaohui looked at the situation inside the room.
“Isn’t this house nice?” Qin Donghai walked around, “Two bedrooms and one living room, isn’t it cheap?”
“The rent of three thousand and five thousand a month is certainly not cheap. Got it." Qin Shaoyan began to sort out the packages on the floor and put them on the floor of the living room.
“What, three thousand and fifty a month?” Xun Xiaohui was shocked, “Why is it so expensive?”
"Houses in the capital are of course expensive, and this is close to Wudaokou, and Zhongguancun is nearby, which is full of Internet companies." Qin Shaoyan explained, "I finally found such a place, which is close to the company."
Qin Donghai nodded, "This place is quite good. It's comfortable and spacious."
"The rent is expensive." Qin Donghai turned to look at his son and asked with concern, "You Is there enough money to spend every month? I can’t pay you enough.”
“Of course it’s enough,” Qin Shaoyan said proudly, “renting a house is nothing. ?”
“Twenty thousand?” Qin Donghai and Xun Xiaohui looked at each other, “Are you just talking nonsense?”
"Besides, aren't you the boss? The boss also has a salary?"
"Let me explain it to you." Qin Shaoyan said dumbfounded, "The boss also needs a salary to support himself."
Then He gave his parents a good introduction to simple concepts such as entrepreneurship, venture capital financing, and equity allocation.
Qin Donghai thought thoughtfully after hearing this, "In other words, the money actually belongs to the company, not you."
"Yes." Qin Shaoyan was very pleased, Dad Finally I didn’t understand.
"In other words, you are just a boss in name only." Qin Donghai continued to ask, "Is this the salary you earn?"
"The current situation is like this." Qin Shaoyan nodded and replied.
"So how is your company? Can it make money?" Qin Donghai asked with concern, "Don't let it take two years to become a loser."
"Well, it's hard to say. "Qin Shaoyan pondered his thoughts, "As long as the website always has users, those venture capital investors will keep investing money to keep the company running."
Qin Donghai suddenly asked: "Didn't you say that your company was going to be listed last time. Going to cheat money? How’s it going?”
"Uh, not bad." Qin Shaoyan replied awkwardly, "The company will operate for another year or two, and then it can go public in the United States."
"Hey, you still want to go to the United States." Qin Donghai was greatly surprised, "Isn't there enough money for you in the country?"
"The main reason is that there is more money in the U.S. stock market." Qin Shaoyan sighed, "Let's not talk about this and unpack your luggage. What are you bringing?"
Xun Xiaohui took a sip of hot water and put the cup aside. "I'll do it. Don't help me. I'll put the things away, so don't mess them up for me. ”
Except for a change of clothes and daily necessities for two people, the other packages contained a dazzling array of items.
"These two quilts, this thick winter cover, this thin spring and autumn cover." Xun Xiaohui dragged the thick quilt out of the backpack and handed it to Qin Shaoyan.
"There are two more blankets. You spread them on the bed. These are sheets, quilt covers, pillow covers..."
Qin Shaoyan reluctantly put these things in the bedroom, "Mom, these They are available in both the east and west capitals, so you don’t need to carry them all.”
“Things in big cities are expensive, not as cheap as ours,” Xun Xiaohui insisted and continued to take out things from the package.
Qin Shaoyan didn't say anything and just helped organize the things. Until he saw his mother taking out two bags of rice from the package, he couldn't hold himself any longer.
"Mom, why are you carrying the rice?" Qin Shaoyan couldn't help but ask.
“The rice in Beijing is not as delicious as our Northeastern rice.” Xun Xiaohui walked into the kitchen and looked around, “You have nothing, not even soy sauce and vinegar?!”
"How do you live every day?"
"I always eat at the company and don't usually cook." Qin Shaoyan sighed and explained
Xun Xiaohui frowned, "Then Hurry up and buy it, otherwise what will happen during the Chinese New Year?”
"You don't usually bring your girlfriend back to cook during your breaks?"
Qin Shaoyan was stunned for a moment and said smoothly: "How can you have a girlfriend?"
"You don't have a girlfriend yet? !" Xun Xiaohui became even more dissatisfied, "You are already 27, and you are still a bachelor?"
Qin Shaoyan was even more shocked, "Mom, I haven't even passed my 25th birthday yet, why am I 27? ?”
“You are already 26 this year!” Xun Xiaohui said nonstop, “Aren’t you just rushing to 27?”
"It's not my 25th birthday yet!" Qin Shaoyan emphasized.
“It’s 26 years old whether you have passed it or not.” Xun Xiaohui said dissatisfiedly, “Your mother is not confused yet, please stop interrupting, do you have a girlfriend?!”
“Not yet, It's not urgent." Qin Shaoyan said quickly with a smile.
“Aren’t you in a hurry?” >
Qin Shaoyan didn't know how to refute for a while, so he turned to look at his father, "Dad, come with me to the supermarket downstairs to buy something, otherwise I won't be able to cook for a while."
Xun Xiaohui looked up at the time and remembered the business, "Go quickly, go quickly, I almost forgot about this."
Qin Shaoyan felt like he was pardoned, and quickly picked up his coat and ran out of the door.
Dad slowly followed Qin Shaoyan, curiously looking at the community to see the scenery, and suddenly asked: "How much is the house price per square meter in this community."
Qin Shaoyan was about to answer, when the money in his pocket The phone rang.
I picked it up and saw that it was a New Year greeting message from the vice presidents of Sohu and NetEase.
Qin Shaoyan thought for a while, pasted the text message, changed his name and sent it to Xiong Xiaoge, Zheng Nan, Xu Xin and others.
Zheng Nan and Xu Xin quickly replied to the messages, to the general effect of thanking Mr. Qin for his blessings and wishing Mr. Qin a happy New Year. At first glance, it was from their secretary assistants.
But there was no movement from Xiong Xiaoge's side, as if a stone had disappeared into the sea.
