Chapter 369: Complacency

In the afternoon, Yuan Yuqi and Zhang Xiaoyan were going shopping together to buy clothes. Zhang Xinzhou had already talked to them about this before the holiday. Li Tongwen was not embarrassed to go together, so after dinner, he took the subway back to school alone.

There was no one in the dormitory.

Zhang Xinzhou and Yan Qing went outside to play together.

Yang Fei also invited agents from various schools of the trading company to have dinner during the three days of New Year's Day.

Not to mention Xu Ye, even if he doesn't have holidays, he usually spends very little time in the dormitory.

Li Tongwen pulled out his chair and sat down, recalling what happened in the morning in his mind, and a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.

After resting for a while, he began to clean the dormitory.

It wasn't until five o'clock in the afternoon that the three roommates came back one after another.

"Come on, let me try the snowflake hawthorn I bought for you. It's sour and sweet, so delicious." Yang Fei held a box of hawthorn and gave a few to his three roommates.

Xu Ye ate two and thought they tasted good, so he asked, "Where did you buy them?"

"There is a new shop in the University of Technology. It just opened recently. I bought some when I passed by."

Just when Xu Ye was about to take two more, Yang Fei immediately backed away: "That's all. Don't finish them all by yourself."

"Get the fuck out of here."

Xu Ye stretched out his legs and kicked him. Yang Fei twisted his butt and dodged, but Xu Ye still ate two more.

Xu Ye had no intention of telling Yang Fei about his encounter with Li Lulu at Earl No. 1.

Anyway, the two have completely broken up now, and bringing her up again will only make Yang Feitu more troubled.

Zhang Xinzhou asked with a smile: "Xu Ye, where have you been wandering these past three days?"

"My mother-in-law is here, where else can I go? I just stayed in the hotel for three days and didn't go anywhere."

Zhang Xinzhou sighed and said with emotion: "Really, there are people everywhere during the holidays. I will definitely not go out to play during the next holiday. I will just stay in the dormitory like Li Tongwen."

"Tongwen, have you wiped my table? Why is it so clean?"

"I just wiped it off. I have nothing to do in the dormitory anyway."

Xu Ye asked with concern: "Have you passed CET-6?"

"The results will be released in February, so there shouldn't be much of a problem."

Li Tongwen paused for a moment. He suddenly thought of taking an online car-hailing ride with Zhang Xiaoyan in the morning, so he took the initiative to ask: "Zhang Xinzhou, how much did you spend to take the driver's license test at school?"

"About three thousand."

Zhang Xinzhou asked back: "You also want to take the driver's license test?"

Li Tongwen hummed and nodded, but he quickly asked: "Does it take a lot of time to learn to drive?"

Just as Zhang Xinzhou was about to speak, Xu Ye responded quickly: "Don't worry about this. The final exam is a small problem for you. The company doesn't have many things to do now. You must take the driver's license test anyway, and there are half a year before the winter vacation." It’s been many months. If you sign up now, you might be able to pass Subject 2 before the year ends. If you don’t have enough money, I’ll transfer it to you.”

"Enough."

Li Tongwen's monthly salary now exceeds his living expenses by a lot. Not only does he not ask for his family's living expenses, but he transfers a sum of money back every once in a while.

He knew very well that the fact that he could get his current salary had little to do with his ability. The main things in the investment department were done by Lu Cheng and Ge Pingping. He didn't do much in the company, so now that he has He would look at relevant investment cases every time, and he would often ask Lu Cheng for advice in the company. He had long been prepared to continue working in Qingye Investment.

…

The next Monday, there is no class in the afternoon.

Xu Ye went to the company with Zhang Xinzhou after eating. Li Tongwen had already left early because he had to bring food to Zhang Xiaoyan and Yuan Yuqi.

After the fruit store was transferred, he has been driving one of the electric vehicles used for delivery, which is quite convenient to go to the company.

Before entering the company, Xu Ye saw Zhang Xiaoyan at the front desk lying on the front desk chatting with Yuan Yuqi. Both of them were wearing new clothes they bought yesterday, and it was hard to tell who they were just by looking at their backs.

As soon as Xu Ye walked in, he put his arm around Zhang Xinzhou's shoulders and praised: "Look, look, they have changed their clothes. I can hardly recognize them anymore."

Hearing Xu Ye's voice, Zhang Xiaoyan quickly turned around, and Yuan Yuqi also stood up.

Yuan Yuqi wore a high-collared milk-white sweater, a black and white plaid skirt underneath, and a pair of high heels, giving her a high-end white-collar look.

As for Zhang Xiaoyan, she was wearing a gray women's suit, also lined with a black sweater, and paired with a pair of jeans. She looked like a woman in the workplace.

Yuan Yuqi took the initiative to turn around and asked with a smile: "Mr. Xu, do you think we can do this?"

"sure."

Yuan Yuqi muttered: "This dress costs hundreds. If the company didn't reimburse us, we wouldn't be willing to buy it."

"I tell you, girls your age must learn to invest in yourself. There are two ways to invest in yourself. One is material investment, and the other is spiritual investment. Material investment means investing in yourself every day. Dress up beautifully, so that people will be confident. People with confidence will tend to do things much more smoothly. Mental investment is to read more books, learn more things, and be full of poetry and calligraphy. The former To improve the outside, to improve the inside, you need to take a long-term view.”

Xu Ye paused for a moment and continued, "It's hard for ordinary people to turn over because they like to be content with the status quo. They can reap long-term rewards by spending a few years to improve themselves, but they would rather stay in their own comfort zone and then be complacent."

Both of them were stunned.

Xu Ye smiled, and regardless of whether the two of them listened or not, he walked back to his office.

Not long after he sat down in the office, he received a call from Zhao Ming. This time he was talking about work. The money invested by Yingke had almost been burned, and now they wanted to conduct a second round of financing. Zhao Ming called to ask Xu Ye's opinion.

In fact, Lu Cheng has always been concerned about the situation of Yingke Live. The company spent part of the money invested in the previous investment on software optimization and part of the money on promotion. From the recent background data, it can be seen that Yingke Live already has a group of loyal users.

Xu Ye did not answer immediately, but asked: "Do you want to follow up with the investment?"

Zhao Ming quickly said: "I have already got their company's financial statements. Judging from the data above, I think it is possible to follow up with the investment."

"The old rules, how much you follow up with, I will follow up with the same amount."

"They want to raise 30 million in the second round. If we each pay half, you will have to pay 15 million. Do you want to reconsider it?"

"No need."

"Okay, if you dare to follow up with a small company, then why should I not dare."

The two chatted for about a quarter of an hour and then hung up the phone. After Xu Ye told Lu Cheng about this, he returned to the office and sent a message to his mother-in-law:

"Auntie, I don't have classes tomorrow morning. Do you need me to go to the hospital?"

Jiang Meilin quickly replied: "The doctor said that after the operation, it is best to stay in the hospital for two days for observation. You can come if you have time. I am afraid that I can't handle it alone."

Xu Ye: "Okay."
