Mixed in 1980

Chapter 232 Graduation
Chen Fan trembled slightly. It was only a few months away.

Chen Fan couldn't help but have a headache when thinking about having another child in the family, but he couldn't go back on his word, otherwise Zeng Ali would be really angry.

But it’s also good to have a child. You can learn from the people born in the 1990s and 2000s and treat your child as a toy, which can add a lot of fun.

Well... Chen Min already has one in her belly, so she can practice on her future nephew first.

Chen Min's belly began to bulge, and she was now staying at home to take care of the pregnancy. She had a very bad temper, and Chen Fan usually avoided her and didn't dare to provoke her easily.

As for the furniture factory, Chen Min no longer cared about it and handed it all over to Zhang Yunfan. With the help of Sun Hongyu, it is operating normally and its scale has expanded a lot. The 20 acres of land originally acquired have all been built into factory buildings and put into use.

The couple, including Sun Hongyu, have now mastered the technique.

Chen Fan helped to make a plan and acquired a piece of land in Yangcheng to build another factory. He is about to establish his own furniture brand and office furniture brand.

In addition, the couple mortgaged the factory in Hong Kong, borrowed money from Chen Fan, and bought a piece of commercial land of only 10 acres in Hong Kong at a low price, planning to build a furniture mall.

The price is really cheap!
Chen Fan originally planned to lend out some more money to build the furniture mall, but Chen Min and his wife refused to take it as they had already taken a lot from their younger brother.

"Then wait two years. Once the property market heats up, you can directly ask the bank for a loan."

Chen Min agreed and didn't take care of too many things. Now he just stayed at home and was thinking about when to move the company's headquarters to Beijing.

Seeing Xu Jinqiu coming back from the next yard, Chen Min called her over: "Qiu'er, when will your foundation's office building be completed?"

“It is estimated that it will not be completed until the end of next year.”

The foundation’s office building and residential quarters were built at the same time and have been underway for several months. It is expected to be completed in two and a half years.

When constructing the office building, the higher-ups presented several plans, but all of them were rejected by Chen Fan. He wasn't aiming for the tallest building, but he couldn't be petty either.

Chen Fan didn't want to give people the impression that he was outdated after just a few years, so after discussion between the two sides, he came up with a plan to build a 2000-story building with a single-story area of 16 square meters, equipped with 12 elevators and 4 elevator entrances reserved.

This way you can use it for decades without getting out of date.

However, once the plan changed, the location of the office building also changed. Chen Fan originally planned to build it near the residential area so that employees could walk to and from get off work.

However, it was a waste to build such a luxurious building near a residential area, so a new piece of land was demarcated that was closer to the city center.

This means that employees will have to ride a bike four or five kilometers to and from get off work, or take the bus.

"After it's built, leave me an office."

"I'll leave you one layer."

The office building was divided between the two parties, with Chen Fan occupying the top 6 floors and the bottom 10 floors belonging to the government.

The Xu Jinqiu Charity Foundation has a lot of staff, but the office building is large, so one floor is enough for use, and the rest will probably be rented out.

Chen Min thought about it and agreed.

Anyway, they all belong to my younger brother, so I’ll use them first, in case he has no place to work when his business expands in the future.

The days passed one by one.

Chen Min's belly was getting bigger and bigger, but the house became much quieter. Zeng Ali and Zhao Yuanyuan went out again, traveling between Hong Kong and Guangzhou.

One wants to build a factory and the other wants to create a brand.

Unlike Zeng Ali, Miss Zhao has no passion for entrepreneurship. Since she was a child, she has always wanted to be a salted fish, a rich salted fish, not a rich ox or horse.

As money was spent one by one, Miss Zhao had to pay attention to it. It was a full 2000 million US dollars, and she felt painful to spend it.

Especially in the area of research and development, money is spent one after another, just like burning money.

If it weren't for Zeng Ali's help and Chen Fan's frequent visits to help, Zhao Yuanyuan would have wanted to quit. She was frustrated about spending so much money but there was no sign of the product.

Miss Zhao is very worried now. She is afraid that in the end, she will spend 2000 million US dollars but not even produce a product. It would be better to waste it.

It's not impossible.

Chen Fan has extremely high requirements for products, and the R&D center is finding all kinds of ways to spend money. No one can predict what the final result will be.

However, Chen Fan gained a lot.

After receiving clear instructions, Zhou Wenya and Yu Jing took big actions, continuously acquiring supermarkets in Xiangjiang and the property rights of supermarket stores.

In a short period of time, a lot of gains have been made.

In addition, there was the second land auction in Hong Kong in the first half of 1984, which also involved 15 plots of land. Chen Fan borrowed US$1 million from the bank and won 6 plots.

The number of plots of land on hand has grown to 31, and there are also 8 industrial plants.

As the land auction ended, graduation was approaching.

Chen Fan returned to the capital, packed his luggage and moved back to the dormitory. Everyone was about to go their separate ways, so they took advantage of the last bit of time to get together more and live a life of drunkenness and dreams for a few days.

Anyway, it’s all about gatherings and drinking!

"I can't drink anymore today. I need to slow down, buddy."

Xin Yingjie yawned and rubbed his temples vigorously, feeling his scalp numb: "You guys are such a drinker, why don't you drink yourself to death?"

Chen Fan shook his head vigorously and said teasingly, "Brothers are here to help you adapt to society in advance. Don't be ungrateful. There will be many drinking opportunities in the future. You need to practice!"

It is undeniable that Xin Yingjie drank a lot during his internship, and he couldn't help but complain: "Alcohol culture is dregs, you write an editorial and scold these bastards to death." "Go to hell!"

Chen Fan raised his thumb and cursed directly: "Brother, you are a businessman now, and you still criticize the drinking culture? In the future, if you ask someone to do something for you, it will be strange if you don't get drunk to death at the table."

"Once you are in the arena, you have no choice!"

Xin Yingjie took out a cigarette, lit it, and threw one to Chen Fan: "You are lucky, you have a big family and a lot of money, no one will make things difficult for you, but we are miserable, from now on, when we sit at the table, we will just have to eat and drink with you, and we don't know when it will end."

Chen Fan took the cigarette and thought about it before lighting it. He just felt that the smell was unpleasant: "Climb up as hard as you can. In the future, I will have to beg you to buy me a drink."

"Then I will work hard!" Xin Yingjie said with a smile.

"Then I'll wait." Chen Fan smiled. The future might not be impossible. After graduation, Xin Yingjie would be able to fly freely in the sky and fish in the sea, and eventually become a powerful boss in the ministry.

"What are you waiting for? If he dares not to give me face next time, call us brothers and beat him to death." Cao Yang jumped down from the upper bunk in his shorts.

Xin Yingjie teased, "Even if I don't give face to anyone else, I have to give face to you. If you go to ICBC, you will be the God of Wealth. Brothers, hurry up and worship the God of Wealth first."

"May the God of Wealth bless you!" The brothers were very respectful.

It’s hard to say if we are not in the same place, but if we are in the same place, we will definitely not be able to avoid Cao Yang in the future.

The brothers all planned to eat him for the rest of their lives. The diary clearly stated: Cao Yang broke up on what date, why he broke up, why he cried, and what he said when he cried...

Cao Yang grinned and lit a cigarette: "Brothers, you have to be sincere when you worship the God of Wealth. You have to put some offerings, right? You want to make a wish without spending a penny. What good are you thinking?"

"Go away, the real God of Wealth is here."

Sun Pingan also lit up a cigarette and said jokingly, "If you want to attract investment in the future, it's definitely right to look for Chen Fan. It's useless to look for you. You won't get much out of it."

"I believe that!"

Cao Yang put his hand on Chen Fan's shoulder and said, "God of Wealth, we will graduate soon. Please show us a way to make money and narrow the gap between the rich and the poor."

Chen Fan took a puff of his cigarette and teased, "Student Cao Yang, you have great potential to be greedy. In a few years, we will only be able to visit you in prison."

"Don't curse me. I love money, but I earn it in a proper way. As a college student with ideals and consciousness, I won't do anything that violates the law."

Cao Yang sat down and smoked a cigarette lazily: "Hurry up, I know you are capable, you can't just watch your brothers eat coarse food."

"There really is a way to get rich."

Chen Fan put out the cigarette. He hadn't smoked for a long time and the taste was not right. "But before that, there is something I need to explain to you guys, especially Jianye."

Chen Jianye smiled and said, "You emphasize me?"

Chen Fan hummed, "I think you are the most motivated kid, but the more motivated a person is, the easier it is for him to get in. Maybe one day he will be trapped."

Chen Jianye took a book and threw it over, scolding with a smile: "Brother, do you think you can't stand the test?"

"Who knows what will happen in the future."

Chen Fan dodged it and said with a smile: "Just take it as a reminder to you. In life, it's nothing more than power, money, and sex. When you guys get to work, you have power in your hands, but when power, money, and sex are mixed together, it's easy to get into trouble."

The brothers fell into deep thought.

Chen Fan smiled and said, "Don't take it so seriously. I just mentioned it casually. I'll tell you guys how to make money first, so you don't get into trouble for money in the future."

"Hurry up!" Cao Yang's eyes lit up.

"After you guys get to work, it will be easy to get wine tickets. After you get the tickets, go buy some wine. Remember, only buy Moutai."

"Huh?" Everyone was suspicious.

"Once the bills are liberalized, prices will skyrocket. In recent years, grain has become increasingly abundant. If the law is gradually liberalized, the price of alcohol should also rise soon. It will take at most three years."

If you had a ticket, you could buy Moutai for just a few yuan a bottle. In 87, the price was directly raised to 128 yuan.

That’s ten times the profit!

"Don't ask me why I know this, I have inside information. As for why I chose Moutai instead of other brands, don't ask me either, because if you ask me, it's inside information."

"When the money from selling alcohol is earned, we can use it to buy a house. Once we complete these two steps, we will never be short of money in our lives."

Chen Fan stood up and stretched his muscles. "I've been drinking with you guys for several days. I have to go home and rest for two days. Come back the day after tomorrow and we'll continue drinking."

Leaving the brothers looking at each other in bewilderment, Chen Fan drove home alone. As soon as he entered the house, Zeng Ali, who had rushed back specially, came over to him.

Then he said with a look of disgust: "You smell like alcohol and cigarettes, are you smoking again?"

"I never saw you dislike smoking before, who are you showing this expression to now?"

Zeng Ali rolled her eyes at him and said, "I'm used to the lack of cigarette smell, and you want me to adapt again? Go take a shower and come to my room later."

"Is something wrong?"

Zeng Ali hummed, looked around, and whispered, "I ordered a few sets of underwear. I'll wear them for you to see later. I'll start making a little man today."
