CHAPTER 1858: CHAPTER 1683: UNBEATABLE

Evening.

At the dinner table.

"Delicious."

"Tasty."

"Silly crab, I missed you so much." Tang Qing said, and Qin Shiqi got used to calling it that too. As for why it got this name, Tang Qing’s answer was simple: If it’s not silly, how could it get caught?

Qin Shiqi thought it made a lot of sense.

And so.

Silly pig.

Silly cow.

Silly sheep.

Silly rabbit.

Became her ’nicknames’ for these delicious ingredients.

"You all should eat too!"

"..."

Watching her daughter gobble the food, as a mother, of course, she felt sorry, constantly adding food to her plate. Qin Shiqi also had a physique that didn’t gain weight, and in a month, she had tasted the delicacies from all around the country.

However.

Disappointingly.

The variety was vast.

But the taste was less than satisfactory, and it didn’t look as good as on TV. After experiencing great things, plain ones no longer appealed. Luckily, her university life was spent in Qingyan City, so she could come back anytime she wanted to eat.

"Sis, slow down."

"I won’t."

"Wipe your mouth."

"It’s okay."

"Drink some soup, don’t choke."

"Okay."

Gulp gulp.

With family around,

There’s no need to mind appearances.

Qin Shiqi’s tomboy nature was revealed completely. Tang Qing felt sorry too, but flowers in a greenhouse need to learn how to withstand storms besides basking in sunshine and gentle rain.

After binge-eating.

In just five or six minutes.

"I’m full."

Qin Shiqi lay back in her chair, a satisfied expression on her face.

Beside her.

Her friend who came along remained refined. At someone else’s house, she didn’t dare eat freely, but the food here was beyond words, the opportunity was rare, if she didn’t eat to her fill these days, she wouldn’t leave the table.

"Brother."

"Hmm?"

"I want to do part-time work."

After playing enough.

Qin Shiqi wanted to take university more seriously. She wasn’t interested in how carefree other people’s university life was. She wanted to take Tang Qing as a role model, studying while working, rather than recklessly wasting her youth.

"What do you want to do?"

"You decide."

Qin Shiqi believed that Tang Qing’s advice would be the best.

Thinking about it.

Street cleaning.

Flyers.

Selling clothes.

None quite fit.

Tang Qing said, "How about working at Sky Eye? Your major is Business Administration, it’s related. At the start, you can do some assisting tasks, like starting with customer service."

"As for the time, one to two hours a day, you can arrange it yourself."

"Okay."

Qin Shiqi immediately agreed.

Customer service.

Not bad.

"You can get exposure to a lot of things, a company, an industry, in a company like Sky Eye, the customer service requirements are high, Shiqi can give it a try."

Tang Kai added.

"How much is the wage?"

Qin Shiqi instantly showed her true nature.

"No base pay, more work, more pay, twenty-five an hour, once you’re proficient, it can increase." Tang Qing offered a fair rate, equivalent to formal customer service at Sky Eye.

"Great."

Twenty-five.

Qin Shiqi was very satisfied, working two hours after school every day equals fifty bucks, fifteen hundred a month, if she worked overtime on weekends, perhaps she could earn two to three thousand, oh my, she’s going to be a little rich lady.

At night.

After washing up.

On the bed.

Qin Shiqi hugged her sister and wouldn’t let go.

"Sis."

"Mm?"

"Hot."

"I’m not hot."

"..."

"Sis, never travel alone in the future, it’s too dangerous, at least let Brother send a bodyguard, no, two, got it." Qin Shiqi worriedly advised her sister, mindful of her simple nature.

"Got it."

Qin Shiyu obediently agreed.

"Also, don’t believe those smooth-talking men, a few words of flattery and you lose your head. I ran into several on the road, they’re downright scum."

"Those bastards even devised a whole theory on how to tempt girls step by step, tricking them into bed, those tricks and language, using women’s psychology to achieve shameless ends."

"..."

That night.

Qin Shiyu listened and almost lost sleep.

Outside.

How scary.

...

The next day.

August seventh.

Morning.

"Let’s go!"

Qin Shiqi returned to her usual self, hollering, with a fist towards the sky. Tomorrow was the Olympic opening ceremony, but she couldn’t wait. Though she couldn’t get in today, it was good enough to see it from outside.

An hour later.

They came back.

Too crowded.

Afternoon.

Chai Ren and Zheng Lin arrived.

Chatting away.

Drinking tea.

Soon enough.

They got down to business.

"On the eleventh, Jinghua Real Estate is going public. Nowadays, in Huaxia’s high-end real estate, we’ve led the market. In the next ten years, I think we can start expanding horizontally and vertically."

"Office buildings."

"Tourist real estate."

"Projects."

"Building materials."

"..."

A long list followed, in essence, diversification to boost risk resistance, though diversification itself has risks. But Bao Kaiyu didn’t think this group of people needed to fear risk, gathered as they were.

"What’s your take?"

Chai Ren looked towards Tang Qing.

This matter.

Asking Tang Qing made the most sense.

"Take steady steps, advance with caution." Tang Qing gave eight words. Diversification is risky, but if a company has no shortage of projects, such diversification becomes profit points.

The average company.

Would likely fail, but for these few here.

They have power.

They have influence.

They have connections.

As long as they don’t act recklessly, they can make money anyhow.

The four smiled.

It can be done.

That’s good, reaching a consensus.

"Speaking of projects, Myanmar is soon offering project loans to many countries, can we get a piece of that? I heard it’s at least two hundred billion." Zhai Zhihua suddenly said.

"Who said so?"

"My dad."

"Then it must be true." Bao Kaiyu nodded.

However.

Chai Ren shook his head.

"Don’t get your hopes up, first, these projects are mostly high-difficulty ones that its own national enterprises can’t handle, like airports, hydropower stations, railways, etc., which we can’t do for now."

"Second, if they’re general low-difficulty construction projects, their national enterprises can take them on, leading to intense competition, plus being foreign projects increases all kinds of difficulties."

Private enterprises.

Can manage housing construction.

Large projects are hard to fight for.

"Aren’t you a chamber of commerce member? Isn’t there a way?"

"No."

"That’s a pity."

As they were disappointed.

Tang Qing spoke up, "There’s nothing to pity, if you really want to do it, work hard to make up for whatever’s lacking. Talent, technology, equipment, spend money, spend time, you can eventually catch up."

This remark.

Revitalized them.

Yes indeed.

Not being able now doesn’t mean not in the future.

Zheng Lin said:

"How true, it seems we’ve gotten used to doing easy business and lost some enterprising spirit. Jinghua Real Estate should not lack technological pursuit, we need to look ahead to go further."

"Exactly."

"We can speak with strength too."

"..."

Tang Qing smiled inwardly.

Great.

There’s still hope.

As for Jinghua Real Estate’s future, Tang Qing was quite optimistic. Huaxia is not short of rich people, nor those willing to spend. Profits are assured, let alone with this group of young lords.

It can’t fail.
