The Birth of Shanghai's First Conglomerate

"Master, do you believe in love?"

The first question the young lady on the bus asked was a big one.

Chen Pingsheng couldn't figure out what she was up to. After giving a simple answer, the understanding fairy took the initiative to ask, "Master, you must pay a high commission to the platform for taking orders online, right?"

"Yes, about a quarter of it is removed."

"Then why don't you just switch to offline? It's not easy for you guys to make money. I'll transfer the money to you privately later."

"It's also okay."

The young girl was quite considerate, so Chen Pingsheng had no suspicions.

After canceling the online order, even Chen An'an was overjoyed, thinking she had received a great help from a kind person.

Once the car started moving, the little fairy felt that the car was comfortable to sit in.

I even asked him if he bought it for over 100,000 yuan, since that's the typical price for a Volkswagen.

Chen Pingsheng casually mentioned that it was less than 200,000, and the little fairy never asked again.

Perhaps in her heart, no matter how good a car is, it's not as reassuring as a BBA (BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi).

Chen An'an even turned to chat with her, and the two had a pleasant conversation.

They chatted and laughed all the way. When the car arrived at its destination, Chen Pingsheng asked her to pay. Little Fairy's words almost broke his composure.

"Sir, do you know what a helpful citizen is?"

"What do you mean?"

The fairy said, "Master, it seems you can't take orders offline. If I report you to the platform, the consequences will be severe."

He'd been tricked. Chen Pingsheng asked, "Hey girl, that's not what you said when you came up here."

"That's because you're not smart enough."

The fairy said in a serious tone, "Master, I see that driving is not easy for you, so just give me three hundred yuan and we'll call it even."

Chen An'an was dumbfounded. Could this really be done?

It turns out that her father not only didn't make any money on this order, but he also had to pay out 300 yuan.

"Girl, do you do this kind of thing often?"

"It's not much, mainly because I didn't bring any money with me when I went out, and I don't want to take the bus, so I'm sorry to trouble you."

"Okay." Chen Pingsheng was a big businessman after all, and he knew that the wickedness of human nature was everywhere in the business world.

I never thought I'd get to experience this while driving for a ride-hailing service; it's unbelievable.

"Girl, aren't you afraid of retribution for making money like this, without any conscience?"

"You still want to curse me?"

The young woman shouted that she would pay more money or she would call the police. How could Chen Pingsheng argue with her over a few hundred yuan?

"Young lady, let me scan your WeChat QR code. You've broadened my horizons a bit."

The fairy immediately pulled out her fruit machine; she had done this many times before and always succeeded.

She also frequently shares these money-saving tips with her colleagues.

It's not just about saving money on ride-hailing services.

You can also easily save money on food delivery and online shopping.

If you ask her to leave a bad review, people basically won't dare to take her money.

Chen Pingsheng had her phone number and now he transferred several hundred yuan to her.

Finally, we managed to get this little fairy off the bus.

"Dad, are we going to do a losing business?"

"It's not very obvious."

"Dad, you'd actually do a losing business?"

"That's normal. There's bound to be something hateful about a shameless person."

Chen Pingsheng sent her information to Zhang Wanyi, asking her to find out where this fairy-like girl worked.

The result came quickly; it was a recent female college graduate.

She also found a very good company as an intern, and now it's time for her to become a full-time employee.

Chen Pingsheng asked his secretary to contact her boss and tell him that someone like that shouldn't be promoted.

Keeping them around will only cause trouble.

Her good mood for a stroll was completely ruined, and she took her big kid home. Little did she know, her father was the kind of person who wouldn't suffer any loss.

No way you can take advantage of him.

Especially in a small place like Shanghai.

After the two drove home, Chen An'an vividly recounted what had just happened to her mother.

Her father even loses several hundred yuan for each order he completes; it's really not easy for ordinary people to make money.

She accidentally tricked even her father, who was thoroughly outmaneuvered.

It's not a big deal, but it shows that many people are shameless when it comes to taking advantage of others.

Song Yanxi sighed, "Honey, it seems that it's really necessary to let them experience life in ordinary families for a few years."

"That's exactly right."

Chen Pingsheng thought so too, “Human nature is simple in some ways, but complex in others. Our family will probably be living there for the next few years.”

"You won't be driving for ride-hailing services very often from now on, will you?"

"We can't let her run around all the time, we just let her run with us when the older child has some free time."

"Alright."

Song Yanxi invited her relatives from Shanghai over; given the scale of their family's actions, they definitely needed to inform them in advance.

In addition, we need to communicate with both mothers in advance.

From now on, only the older kids and the younger girls will come back here during their holidays; they will stay over there normally.

There won't be any major changes in the next few years.

As for Chen Lu, the mistress, he couldn't come back until he went to university.

The family went to great lengths to support their several heirs.

By evening, Song Wu, Song Shuiqing, and Jiang Peiyao were all dumbfounded.

Single young women simply cannot understand the significance of children in their parents' eyes.

To avoid raising an arrogant and domineering rich kid, even Michelle Song had to give up her current life of ultimate wealth.

Thus, they reintegrate into the community of ordinary people.

He wasn't exactly an ordinary person, given the kind of life he arranged.

They are definitely a high-yielding family.

A small apartment with four bedrooms, two living rooms, and two balconies, plus two disguised luxury cars worth millions.

This configuration is unaffordable for middle-class families.

After he had communicated with all his relatives in advance, the whole family drove their "Beijing BJ80" SUV there.

The community is a relatively new development, built 12 years ago, and the current housing price is around 15 yuan per square meter.

He bought three parking spaces in the community. His wife's parking skills are average, and she can't park easily without two spaces prepared for her.

The building is neither too tall nor too short, just 12 stories, with four units per floor.

Excluding the shared area, it's 180 square meters; including the shared area, it's 220 square meters, definitely considered a large apartment.

The monthly loan repayment is approximately 50,000 yuan, with a repayment period of thirty years.

The layout is also very meticulous, considering that every middle-class family has some debt.

The layout includes four bedrooms and two living rooms, a master bedroom, a guest bedroom, and two children's rooms.

If you don't compare it to villas in Shanghai, this kind of house and its location are quite different.

That's definitely the ceiling for middle-class families.

The guest room is a small, but well-equipped room with all sorts of amenities.

There's a computer desk, a small study, and other amenities.

As for Erpiya, she's already four years old and has her own children's room.

The area here has also shrunk considerably, making it too small for her to roll over.

The interior layout is still very cozy.

Today, let's take a look and see what's missing.

Once that's been completed, we'll try to reduce the use of high-end features in the future.

Everything still needs to be in line with their family's income. (End of Chapter)
