The Birth of Shanghai's First Conglomerate

The first cohort of interns from Shuiyun Academy has graduated.

For Chen Pingsheng and his team, this meant the more than thirty stores in Shanghai that had already been renovated.

They're all ready to open for business.

Their family has gained another super source of income.

For these young women, these two years were the best two years of their lives.

I can study without any worries and still earn 3000 yuan a month.

During holidays, the college also organizes a variety of activities.

He met with one celebrity after another.

These two years are the best of my life.

In this final graduation season, Chen Pingsheng also invited them to have a three-day party.

He paid for all the expenses.

It's only a few tens of millions, just a drop in the ocean.

In the midst of this peaceful period, a video of a massive fire suddenly surfaced online.

Big-nosed Chen An'an even showed him his phone, saying, "Dad, you're famous now!"

The little kid with less than a thousand followers has eyes full of stars.

Her father did nothing but stand on the stage and give a speech, how could it still get over 100,000 likes?

I'm so envious of her, this little Karami in the short video field!
Chen Pingsheng took the Huawei phone from her. The video wasn't very clear, so it must have been filmed privately by one of the students from Shuiyunjian.

Going on stage that day was an accident; there was no prior notice that filming and uploading videos to the internet was prohibited.

That's when the unexpected happened.

Chen Pingsheng glanced at the comments below and found that most of them didn't believe it.

There were doubts and even complaints.

He called Bai Xin, the top secretary in Beijing, and immediately deleted the speech video.

Despite being wealthy, he still doesn't like to be too high-profile.

Seeing the little girl's eyes sparkling, Chen Pingsheng gave her a big diaper without saying a word.

"Still dreaming of becoming an internet celebrity? You've moved, go pack your things."

Big Baby has finally graduated, and his family will be settling down in Shanghai from now on.

I will still come back to the capital often, but I won't stay here for long anymore.

Chen An'an sat on the steps outside the courtyard, just like him. She rested her chin on her hands and said, "Why bother cleaning? Out with the old, in with the new."

"You want to go to Shanghai to buy a new one again? No way, your dad doesn't have any money right now."

"Tch... Dad, I'm not stupid. You don't need to lie to me like this. I've been seeing news about my family on my phone every day this month. Grandma also told me that you've invested tens of billions in Shanghai again."

Chen An'an was particularly carefree, and she had no idea how much money her family had.

Anyway, you can grow vegetables anywhere in a house where land is so valuable.

Moving house is easy; you can just take someone with you.

If you encounter someone who doesn't know their place while you're out, the security affairs team will immediately step in to warn you.

If you try to cause any more trouble, the Ministry of Justice will send you a leaflet that will travel thousands of miles.

She lives in such an environment, what worries could she possibly have?

Chen An'an is on summer vacation, which means two months of non-stop activity. "Dad, I heard from Uncle Zhao that you bought a super big helicopter in Guangdong. When are you going to take me there to play?"

"Whenever you have time."

"I have free time every day."

Big Paw seems to have lost a little weight, but I don't know if it's just his imagination.

She can eat and sleep so much and still stay thin, that's unbelievable.

Chen An'an laughed exaggeratedly, "Dad, I'll play with you every day for the next two months of vacation."

"You'd better give me a break. You'd better behave yourself when you get to Shanghai."

After Chen Pingsheng reminded her, he prepared to move his whole family to Shanghai.

The only thing that the old lady Peng Ying was reluctant to part with was the vegetables she had grown. When she heard that the Shanghai courtyard was three or four times larger than the one in Beijing, her eyes lit up and she packed her things and set off.

As for Liu Fen, she will definitely go too.

Having lived in Beijing my whole life, it's perfectly fine to take a trip to Shanghai, especially with such a large house.

As for Chen Xinyi, who just turned two years old, her little bottom still wobbles when she walks.

He's not very steady on his feet, and his speech is still very incoherent.

Perhaps in another year, she will be able to express what she wants in a childish voice.

There's not much tidying up at home; Shanghai has everything.

This villa in Tan Palace covers nearly four acres and also has its own independent garden.

The style is French, and the exterior walls are all ceramic white.

This is much more comfortable than living in a traditional courtyard house, mainly because it's so big.

It's so big that people can play freely inside; it's hard for ordinary people to imagine the extravagance here.

In particular, it has a huge, independent swimming pool on the first floor.

Even the water temperature inside remains constant throughout the year.

The water temperature can be adjusted at will, but the annual maintenance cost of this water temperature control system is particularly high.

The house has a total of 12 master bedrooms, the best of which are on the second floor.

If you sit on the large terrace outside your room in the evening and brew a couple of cups of tea, life would be incredibly pleasant.

Chen An'an still loved this super big villa at first sight. Although she could no longer see the big fish from inside the room, she could still enjoy the beautiful scenery in the yard through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

The key is that my own garden is too big.

It was so big that even a little martial arts prodigy like her, who had practiced martial arts since childhood, couldn't run out of it no matter how hard she tried.

The best synonym for French-style villas is romance, and this Tan Palace Villa certainly deserves the title of luxury as well.

Too luxurious.

Regardless, they will definitely host a housewarming party when they move to their new home, which is a way of celebrating their new home.

Although we have quite a few houses, this one has a different significance.

They will be staying permanently from now on.

There's a Tenghui Department Store not far from my doorstep, making it convenient to buy groceries and such.

Song Yanxi called her sister and invited her to her house for dinner.

Chen Pingsheng then notified Chang Fu to bring his wife Yang Qian over as well.

Jiang Peiyao had just arrived in her convertible Phantom.

She had originally intended to help with the cooking, but there was absolutely no need for it.

Chu Qiuyan and the others are very efficient at cooking.

She looked rather haggard after not seeing her sister-in-law for a while.

Perhaps the main reason is still unsuccessful relationships.

Song Yanxi is very busy right now and can't comfort her as often as before.

The first meal at the villa in Shanghai had to be a lively affair.

His wife will mainly be staying in Shanghai from now on, and the headquarters of Shuiyunjian is located here.

With more than 30 stores opening here every day, the number of stores here has surpassed that of Beijing.

Chen Pingsheng also went to tease Chang Fu's children.

The chubby little boy is quite handsome.

Peng Ying happened to see this scene, and she seized the opportunity to run over and say, "If you like boys, you two should hurry up and have another one."

The older generation still holds very traditional views. They think that if a family is so wealthy, what would it be like if they didn't have a son?

Chen Pingsheng actually wanted to have another child, "Let's talk about it when Xinyi is five years old."

The old lady Peng Ying had urged him about this several times. Seeing that Chen Pingsheng had just relented, she wanted to say something more, but Liu Fen was like a loudspeaker calling for dinner.

Unfortunately, we had no choice but to wait until after dinner to discuss it further.

That's how it was with the older generation; even if a family was this wealthy, it wouldn't be possible without a male heir.

Doesn't that mean we'll have to hand over this family business to someone else in the future?

Peng Ying had always thought this way, and Liu Fen thought almost the same.
