Chapter 148: Chapter 148: What little sister, that’s your mom
"Huh?" The young girl looked at Jiang Xu with confusion.
Jiang Xu said with a bright smile, "Our Secret Base is all set up. When are you planning to move in?"
That one sentence made her cheeks turn pink.
She said softly, "I...I'm not moving in, you're a jerk..."
With that, she ran into the residential area.
Looking at her graceful figure from the back, Jiang Xu grinned.
She says one thing but means another, hehe.
The seven-day holiday quickly came to its last day.
In the afternoon, Fu Yanjie came.
This guy had been playing for a few days and was almost as black as charcoal.
His looks were already on the low side, now it was even worse to look at.
If it weren't for his wealth, Jiang Xu would doubt if he could ever find a wife.
He brought a lot of food and distributed it to several employees.
Then he dragged Jiang Xu into his office.
"Ah, my little sister's here too."
An Nuonuo instantly lowered her head, blushing a deep red, and whispered a denial.
But nobody heard her.
Jiang Xu punched Fu Yanjie, "What are you babbling about, she's your mom."
Fu Yanjie: "Scram!"
After a bit of roughhousing, Fu Yanjie pulled out two boxes from his backpack.
He handed them to Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo respectively.
He said, "Gifts for you, check them out. Hope you like them."
"Thank you." An Nuonuo seemed somewhat flustered to accept.
Jiang Xu opened his box to see.
Goodness, a gold brick.
Two pounds heavy.
Considering the current gold price, it must be worth around 200,000.
This gift was straightforward without any frills.
Yet, I like it.
An Nuonuo's was much more exquisite.
It was a bag made of pure gold.
The weight was over a pound, but if sold, hers might be more expensive.
An Nuonuo was startled and didn't dare to accept it.
"Take it," Jiang Xu said, "It's a gift from your son. Who wouldn't accept it?"
An Nuonuo: "..."
Actually, Jiang Xu knew, it was probably Fu Xinghan's idea.
After all, he had helped him earn two entire buildings, a bit of gift-giving was only right.
Perhaps it was only because Jiang Xu was still young.
If he were already in college, probably Fu Xinghan would be gifting him luxurious cars and beautiful women.
An Nuonuo still refused to take the gift as it was too precious.
She hadn't done anything to deserve it.
It was only when Jiang Xu whispered something in her ear that her face turned red and she finally accepted the gift.
Seeing that, Fu Yanjie gritted his teeth, "You two are sickening, stop showing off your love in front of me. Damn, I'm leaving."
Jiang Xu called out, "What about dinner tonight?"
Fu Yanjie: "I have plans with Zhang Yuanyuan, I don't have time to bother with you."
Jiang Xu laughed, "Seems like there's something going on between those two."
"Wait a minute!"
Fu Yanjie turned back, "Almost forgot the most important part, how's the website doing now?"
That was his main purpose for this visit.
Jiang Xu pointed at the computer, "See for yourself."
Fu Yanjie sat down and took a look, swearing in shock.
"This data is enough to shock me for a hundred years!"
Jiang Xu just smiled and said nothing.
On the sixth day of the long holiday, Jiang Xu's Weibo fans officially broke through 100,000.
At that point, he posted the link to "Martial Universe."
With a thought-provoking headline: speechless. Originally planned to start a new book, but suddenly found this hidden gem.
That diverted my attention for the past days and I didn't write a word for the new book.
The headline was provocative enough to attract a lot of clicks.
And the outstanding quality of the novel ensured its success.
By the afternoon of the seventh day of the website going online.
The total number of visits reached 1.6 million.
The total number of registered users was 300,000.
And over 130,000 users made payments.
The total recharge amount was as much as a million and two hundred thousand.
The average subscription to "Martial Universe" was six thousand.
The average daily income was a little over five hundred.
This was about what Jiang Xu had forecasted at the outset.
By the end of the holidays, the total recharge amount had crossed the one million mark.
The total initial investment was one million five hundred thousand.
Given normal development, they could have been profitable by the end of the month.
However, they also needed to guard against any shenanigans from their competitors.
The most common tactic was, of course, to plagiarize from the popular books on their website.
Fu Yanjie took a deep breath.
Then, with glittering eyes, he looked at Jiang Xu, "So, our company has great potential.
Do we have the potential to go public in the future?"
Jiang Xu patted his shoulder, "Definitely, one hundred percent.
The shares you currently hold will be worth at least one billion in the future."
Fu Yanjie felt like he was floating.
He laughed like a big fool, "Hehe, in the future, remember to call me CEO Fu.
No, I need to buy a few more suits and pairs of leather shoes, otherwise, my status won't be reflected properly."
Watching him prance around in such a frivolous manner,
Jiang Xu shook his head in resignation, calling out, "Remember to ask your father to transfer the rest of the money once you get home."
So far, Fu Xinghan had transferred money twice, adding up to three hundred thousand.
With these results, he should send the remaining seven hundred thousand all at once.
After work, Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo went for a big shop at the supermarket.
They went there on a tricycle.
Bought a massive amount of stuff.
For a new home, if you can use new things, you must use new things.
Bed sheets, quilts, slippers, and such.
They brought back a lot of items, and then began to arrange them at home.
Jiang Xu also brought over some of his clothes.
He wouldn't be staying at the office building anymore.
As the number of employees increased, the first floor would soon not be enough.
Two customer service representatives had already been hired.
Going forward, they needed to hire more programmers.
They also needed reviewers, but there was no immediate need for editors.
While Jiang Xu was organizing various items, An Nuonuo was cooking in the kitchen.
This was their first meal in their new home, and it was just the two of them eating.
Ever since Chen Yue and Jiang Shan found out about the huge value of Jiang Xu's two buildings, they started becoming lazy.
They seldom went to the restaurant.
They just let the employees handle it.
They went here and there, dined around, they were completely carefree.
Moreover, they even planned on closing the restaurant and turning it into a small supermarket once the houses were all rented out.
All they needed was to hire a store clerk.
Around eight, Jiang Xu finished tidying up everything.
The whole house looked bright and clean.
And it felt warm and welcoming.
This was a place where Jiang Xu planned to settle down.
It was a common memory between him and An Nuonuo.
"Dinner's ready"
An Nuonuo brought out the last dish.
Wearing an apron around her waist, her bright eyes and white teeth shone as she exuded a charming and virtuous aura.
Jiang Xu washed his hands, sat down, and took a deep breath, "It smells great."
Three dishes and one soup.
Minced meat aubergine, boiled pork slices, pickled cabbage fish, and corn and spare rib soup.
Her cooking skills were definitely not worse than any chef outside.
Even if she opened a small restaurant in the future, she could definitely support herself.
By the time they finished the meal, the food was all eaten up.
An Nuonuo then went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.
Meanwhile, Jiang Xu sat in the living room to make tea.
Occasionally, he would glance at the kitchen, looking at An Nuonuo's perfect figure, and feel incredibly content.
Such plain and simple life was indeed very good.
After his university graduation, making a hundred million or so would be enough.
He was not greedy.
Then, he would marry An Nuonuo, have children, and live a worry-free life.
While he was thinking about this, a message came in on QQ.
