Financial freedom starts with smiling at life

Jiang Beicheng's mistresses are scattered across various industries, and initially they all depended on the industries that Jiang Beicheng invested in within their respective sectors.

Many of them have now become representative figures in their respective fields.

The lovers maintained close ties, creating an ecosystem of interests centered around the Jiang family, much like the close relationship between state-owned enterprises and the government.

To put it bluntly, all the money they earn ends up in the hands of these lovers.

All the scrambling for face and honor ultimately comes down to the Jiang family's reputation.

Now, Liu Yifei, Wu Wen, Haitangxi, and Wu Keqing from Gangcheng have begun to focus their attention on the international stage.

Taking this step will be difficult, but for them, Jiangbei City's international influence is a very favorable condition.

As Wu Wen said, by using the name of Jiangbei City to hold this high-end fashion week, which has never been held in China before, it will definitely be much smoother to get in touch with all parties.

Mr. Jiang laid such a solid foundation for these women, and accumulated such a wide network of connections that they could never use it all.

Jiang Beicheng's last words, "If they can't handle it, I'll personally come and help them," put Wu Wen and Liu Yifei at ease.

After a year of silence, Liu Yifei's comeback is sure to be glamorous, making her the focus of attention in the Chinese entertainment industry, no, it should be the international fashion world.

After all, her status is different now. She is still the "Queen of the Chinese Entertainment Industry" and the head of Yizhi Culture Media. Her inner goals are better and her sense of honor is stronger.

Jiang Beicheng's gaze finally fell on his concubine, Li Xingying, and he smiled slightly.

Does the concubine have anything else to report?

Wu Wen answered for her: "Xingying is the red carpet host that Xixi and I decided on."

Liu Yifei smiled and nodded at Jiang Beicheng.

Jiang Beichen raised an eyebrow and joked, "Aren't you afraid it's a trap?"

Li Xingying smiled and replied, "If I fall into a pit, it can only be said that I am not capable enough."

She understood what Jiang Beicheng meant.

It's not that Liu Yifei and Wu Wen are setting a trap for her, but rather that they're asking her why she took on such a demanding job.
Having just made a name for herself in the entertainment hosting field through a Hunan TV program, she immediately took on international events like this. Those stages demand extremely high personal qualities and don't allow for mistakes.

Even the slightest mistake can be magnified and could even ruin your career.

Wu Wen and Liu Yifei were really daring to invite them, and Li Xingying was also really daring to accept.

Looking at his wife's calm and composed expression, Jiang Beichen praised her, "You've matured."

“I’ve always been following in my husband’s footsteps,” Li Xingying replied.

She no longer has the aura of an internet celebrity; she's more like a socialite who seems to blend in with any circle or occasion.

Her identity as a TV host amplified her wealth.

Jiang Beicheng said with satisfaction, "You will be serving me tonight."

Li Xingying nodded with a smile.

Wu Wen shrugged. "What is this? Mr. Jiang has just extinguished the hope that had just been ignited?"

Liu Yifei pointed to her best friend with her finger, smiled, and got up to wash up and rest.

"Goodnight, everyone." Wu Wen pouted, stood up to say goodbye, and looked at Li Xingying, who was lying in Jiang Beicheng's arms. "Sweet dreams."

Li Xingying replied with a smile, "Sweet dreams."

……

"It's been a while since I've been this intimate with my husband."

Li Xingying emerged from the bathroom, naked before Jiang Beicheng, wiping the water droplets from her body with a towel while reminiscing about the passionate moment they had just shared.

Her pale, delicate skin was still incredibly alluring to Jiang Beicheng.

Jiang Beichen took her hand, pulled her into his arms, and teased his little wife, "Criticizing me?"

“It’s a sigh!” Li Xingying shook her head and said, “My career is getting better and better, my life is becoming more and more affluent… everything seems to be developing in the direction I expected, but the time I spend with my husband is getting shorter and shorter. Before, if we wanted to, we could do it anytime, but now…”

Jiang Beichen smiled, hugged her, and kissed her neck. "So you were short first. I'll make it up to you tonight."

"Hahahaha, honey~"

The room was filled with laughter and cheerful conversation.

His breathing gradually became heavier.

……

Jiang Beicheng woke up very late. When he woke up, he learned from Aunt Shen that his concubine had already had lunch and flown to Changsha.

"Are you still able to get up?" Aunt Shen asked Jiang Beichen with a smile. "How about we go somewhere else to report on our work?"

He glanced at the bed.

It means reporting to him from bed.

Jiang Beichen glanced at the bedside table. Shen Jun picked up a cigarette from the bedside table, walked over, lit it for Jiang Beichen, took two puffs with her red lips, and fed it to Jiang Beichen, mocking, "How long did you go through last night? You don't even have the strength to hold a cigarette."

"Aunt Shen underestimates young people. I just don't want to move."

Shen Jun sat on the edge of the bed, smiled, tidied her hair, turned her head to look at Jiang Beichen, and joked, "Still think of yourself as that young man from two or three years ago?"

Jiang Beicheng frowned, not understanding what Aunt Shen meant.

Shen Jun laughed and said, "Back in Jiangbei City, people would even put their hands inside women's clothes while drinking tea, and they would even kiss women's lips while getting up in the middle of the night to drink water..."

Jiang Beicheng smiled after hearing this.

There was no response.

But they both understood what it meant.

On the surface, it was saying that Jiang Beicheng's energy was not as vigorous as before, but in reality, it was reminiscing about their past.

Aunt Shen was lamenting that she was no longer young.

Jiang Beichen continued to lie there smoking, while Shen Jun remained sitting on the edge of the bed watching him.

They didn't say much, but the smiles on their faces never disappeared.

After Jiang Beicheng stubbed out his cigarette, Shen Jun came to his senses and reported to his superior in a secretary-like tone: "President Miao of the Wharf Chamber of Commerce has sent over the agenda and guest list for the first general meeting of the International Wharf Chamber of Commerce."

He opened the tablet and handed it to Jiang Beicheng.

Jiang Beicheng read it carefully.

He was quite concerned about this matter. Previously, the wharf chamber of commerce had been managed by his sister-in-law, Miao Zhi, who was the vice president. He was only responsible for coordinating relationships between various parties, building connections, and making major decisions for the association.

The globalization of the port chamber of commerce is a development strategy he proposed.

The inspiration also came from the development and management ideas of the Hongmen and Chaozhou Chamber of Commerce, two social organizations, after my trip to Southeast Asia.

The port chamber of commerce has grown at an astonishing pace in China.

In just six months, it has spread from a few western provinces to all parts of the country.

At first, each province and city chose its own name, learning from the Jiangnan City Wharf Chamber of Commerce. Later, they directly adopted the "Wharf Chamber of Commerce" model, only adding the place name of the province or city in front of it.

It's somewhat like the relationship between a general association and its branches.

Gradually, many overseas Chinese also responded, and Jiangbei City simply incorporated them all, letting Miao Zhi coordinate this global conference.

"I'll greet President Ma and Chairman Liu. As for the other guests, Chairman Miao will handle the reception," Jiang Beicheng instructed Shen Jun.

The "Mr. Ma" and "Chairman Liu" he mentioned are Ma Huateng, the honorary chairman of the Shenzhen Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce, and Chairman Liu, the chairman of the International Hongmen Chinese General Association.

Both of them came specifically to offer their congratulations. (End of Chapter)
