Reaching the age of thirty, my income randomly doubled

Chapter 186: Chapter 158 Guangdong Inspection

Back home.

The custom-made 12-seater Coaster had already been delivered to the doorstep.

It was the general manager of the luxury car center who personally delivered it. Chen Pingsheng opened it up for a look.

Indeed, it was pretty good, with plenty of space. The middle two rows consisted of four standard airline-style seats, which could fully recline for a good sleep at any time.

The back row also had four seats that could fold down.

Turning into a standard double bed.

Additionally, it came equipped with a television and a mobile karaoke system, which is a song-selection system.

You could freely sing whatever songs you wanted on the bus.

That was quite impressive.

Driving this kind of minibus wouldn't be possible with a C1 driving license; you'd need a B1 license instead.

But that's hardly a big issue since it wouldn't be him driving anyway.

Chen Pingsheng thought that if there were ever a long trip or a family vacation, this vehicle would be the most comfortable option.

Compared to those impractical small RVs, the Coaster was superior in both comfort and prestige by more than just a little.

His model was the top-of-the-line version worth two million on the road.

All the configurations had been maxed out, so there was basically no need for further modification.

Having a vehicle like that at home would be a lot more convenient.

This year, his eldest sister and her husband were coming back, which worked out just right.

Chen An'an hopped in for a sit but soon lost interest—such a spoiled brat didn't understand.

A few days later, the last session of the President's class for 2014 arrived.

Wang Yanfeng's Male Cat Live Streaming was growing increasingly popular, with numerous articles online hailing him as the strongest wealthy second-generation born in the '80s.

Starting with five small goals his family set for him, he made several billion in just a few years.

His personal fortune had reached over thirty billion.

Most of that came mainly from the valuation of Male Cat Live Streaming.

As for the others, in this thriving economy, everyone had made substantial progress.

What's that saying? You can't tell who's swimming naked until the tide goes out.

When the tide recedes, then you discover who's not wearing underwear.

People kept persuading him to play the stock market. To be honest, Chen Pingsheng was even a little tempted, considering how good the stock market had been that year.

He had tested it out, and the money earned in the stock market couldn't simply multiply randomly.

If that were possible, then he could've made purchases with his eyes closed.

After all, even if prices fell, they wouldn't plummet as fast as they could potentially double.

He Bijing, who was into pig farming, came to see him again. They were the best of friends in the class.

Mainly because their business philosophies were similar; both disliked taking huge risks and believed that making steady money was the key to a long-lasting business.

"Old Chen, how come I heard you spent a billion on a department store?"

"It wasn't that much. Most of it went into purchasing commercial real estate."

"That's a pretty good idea."

He Bijing sat beside him, "In our situation, investing a bit more in commercial real estate is definitely a good move. Don't look at Wang's current triumph with his live streaming, but his platform loses one or two billion each month. If his upcoming financing doesn't go well, it's basically worthless."

That's how internet start-ups work.

When financing goes smoothly, everything shines; when it doesn't, valuations in the tens and hundreds of billions are a joke.

Chen Pingsheng agreed with this point. He Bijing wasn't there to talk about Wang Yanfeng, however.

They were mainly discussing when Fei Yangyang would go to Guangdong.

He was quite determined, managing to raise over a hundred thousand pigs in the mountains—you'd need real strength for that.

Chen Pingsheng had intended to go right after the New Year, but unfortunately, Fei Yangyang's 1.5 billion valuation for the C round had not been completed.

They had to wait for Hua Qiangu's airing and Zhao Liying's rise to fame to easily achieve that valuation.

But investing ten million in a Fei Yangyang internal culinary training institute first was possible.

Guangdong was a large province with tastes completely different from the south and the north.

You must adapt to the local conditions and spend some time researching.

The actual visit would probably have to wait until after the New Year.

He Bijing wanted to discuss a dedicated pork supply as Chen Pingsheng not only owned Fei Yangyang but also Tengsheng Fresh. The daily consumption of pork was enormous. If he could secure this distribution channel, it would be extremely beneficial.

It was similarly advantageous for Chen Pingsheng; after all, He Bijing raised his own pigs.

The prices were certainly cheaper than market purchasing costs, and the pork quality came guaranteed.

"Old Chen, after these three days of classes, do you want to join me on a trip to Guangdong to take a look at my pig farming? It's a good opportunity."

"Of course, I'm eager to learn some breeding techniques from you."

Many classmates were from Guangdong.

North, south, east, west—head to Guangdong to make your fortune.

The earliest land of reform and opening-up.

After Chen Pingsheng agreed, he prepared to notify Zhang Tao and the others to join as well.

Tengsheng Fresh had already opened quite a few stores, and it was possible that in the future they wouldn't be satisfied just with buying and selling stock; they could become a major breeder.

An industrial chain from top to bottom, covering everything.

While it was a possibility, he wasn't planning on pursuing it this year.

It was mainly because the timing wasn't right.

Whether it was Tengsheng Fresh, Tenghui Department Store, or Fei Yangyang, all were still in their initial stages.

None had reached maturity and stability yet.

Only once everything here stabilized would he consider becoming a top breeder.

The three-day President's class ended hurriedly, and during that time they had two gatherings.

One was initiated by Huang Bin, and the other by Old Yang, who managed a hotel.

Tong Zelan's Honglan Capital had just recently been founded. The projects they invested in could take a year or two for fast returns, or it was quite normal for it to take three to five years or more for slower ones.

He planned to visit Guangdong to inspect the pig farming business and wanted to take Zhang Tao and Liu Jing with him.
