Jiang Xu redialed Jiang Xiaoyan, “What’s up?”
“Um… it’s just that I’ve run into some trouble right now, and I need another two billion. Do you have it?”
Jiang Xiaoyan’s voice could be heard with weariness and a bit of embarrassment.
After all, she had already borrowed two billion from Jiang Xu before.
“Okay, I’ll transfer it to you right now,” Jiang Xu agreed without hesitation.
Jiang Xiaoyan was astonished, “You’re not even going to ask me what I need so much money for?”
Jiang Xu laughed, “No need, we are good friends, and I trust you.”
Jiang Xiaoyan spoke in a dejected tone, “You’re so good to me. Other than offering myself to you, I really don’t know how else 1 could repay you.”
“Okay, let’s not talk about this, I’m transferring the money.”
Jiang Xu didn’t want to discuss this topic any further.
He ended the call proactively.
Upon reflection, he decided to send two and a half billion to Jiang Xiaoyan.
Just yesterday in Mei Country, Jiang Xu had once again received information from Liu Dahai about Jiang Xiaoyan.
She had sold all the assets her father gave her, including buildings and publicly-listed company stocks.
Now she was staking everything to snatch back the shares of her father’s company at all costs.
The two times Jiang Xiaoyan had borrowed money from Jiang Xu were also to acquire the shares held by individual investors and small shareholders.
Standing in place, Jiang Xu’s gaze flickered as he quickly calculated in his mind.
On Jiang Xiaoyan’s side, he needed to lend a hand himself and quickly resolve this matter.
Additionally, he had another very important thing to do.
That was to give An Nuonuo a big gift for their upcoming two-month anniversary.
The gift Jiang Xu wanted to give her required a lot of money.
Right now, he was truly stretched thin financially.
After much thought, Jiang Xu decided to sell the 6% stake in the Magic City taxi company that An Feng had given him.
Before DD taxis emerged, the taxi business was good and was now very valuable.
The 6% stake Jiang Xu held was worth around ten billion.
After selling it, his funds would be much freer.
With that in mind, Jiang Xu immediately made a call.
Shares of such a company were in high demand.
By that afternoon, it had already been bought off.
Afterward, Jiang Xu took out five billion and began purchasing the stocks of Jiang Xiaoyan’s father’s company on the market.
Of course, he did it covertly, and anyone intentionally trying to investigate would find it difficult to trace it back to Jiang Xu.
As soon as he stepped out of the airport, he saw An Nuonuo waiting there.
She wore a face mask and dressed simply, not standing out in the crowd at all.
But Jiang Xu spotted her immediately.
An Nuonuo saw him too.
The two ran towards each other and hugged tightly.
Neither spoke, as everything was communicated without words.
“Tsk, tsk, tsk, that’s enough, huh? In broad daylight, in front of everyone, what kind of example is this?”
After releasing An Nuonuo, Jiang Xu saw Fu Yanjie and Zhang Yuanyuan walking over hand in hand.
Jiang Xu had also told them a few things about his return.
“Let’s go,” said Fu Yanjie, draping his arm around Jiang Xu, “I’ve already booked a room to give you a welcome back dinner.”
“Okay, I also have something to discuss with you.”
Once inside the private dining room of the restaurant.
After taking their seats, An Nuonuo and Zhang Yuanyuan were huddled together choosing dishes.
Jiang Xu turned to Fu Yanjie and said, “I’m thinking of making you the vice president of the gaming company and giving you 10% of the shares, what do you think?”
“Good, no problem.”
Fu Yanjie trusted Jiang Xu completely at this point.
He would do whatever Jiang Xu asked him to.
In any case, as long as it wouldn’t harm him.
After finishing the meal, Fu Yanjie took Zhang Yuanyuan home first.
Jiang Xu first dropped An Nuonuo off at home and then went to visit some people.
They were the wealthy local girls from Magic City whom Lin Xiaoxian had introduced to him before.
Jiang Xu had always kept in touch with them.
From time to time, he’d send holiday greetings and such.
And after they learned that Jiang Xu had become this year’s national college entrance exam top scorer, they all elevated their regard for him to a new level. As for the purpose of visiting them, it was simple.
It was to borrow money.
To buy An Nuonuo a birthday gift.
He planned to acquire a cosmetics company that had a decent market share domestically.
The company was called ‘Yue Mei.’
Their products were widely distributed.
Facial masks, lipsticks, blushes, perfumes, etc., they had it all.
Jiang Xu had also sent people to thoroughly investigate the company.
In recent years, there were no tax evasions or employee disputes, nor any incidents that had harmed consumer interests.
He even had all the company’s products bought and sent for inspection by relevant organizations.
The products were all qualified.
With that in mind, Jiang Xu decided to acquire the company.
Yue Mei had over a thousand self-operated stores nationwide, ten factories, and more than twenty thousand employees.
Last year, they applied for an IPO but were sniped by a competitor.
Not only did they fail, they were also greatly weakened.
The current industry valuation was about 3.6 billion yuan.
And last month, the owner of Yue Mei announced that he wanted to sell the company in its entirety.
Jiang Xu went to visit each of the local rich girls in person.
Basically, all of them were willing to lend to him.
More or less.
The least amount was twenty million, the most was ninety million.
The interest Jiang Xu offered was not low, a hefty five percent.
After a full round of visits, Jiang Xu successfully borrowed 4.8 billion.
He’d need to give Lin Xiaoxian a proper thank you.
Along with his own cash in hand, which was about ten billion yuan.
For the rest, he could use assets to mortgage with the bank.
Actually, Jiang Xu could have borrowed all of it from the banks.
The reason he borrowed from the local rich girls was to make their relationship with each other even closer.
This time, he borrowed their money and returned it on time with a decent interest rate.
After laying this foundation of trust,
if he ever encountered a similar situation in the future and needed to borrow even more money, they would most likely be willing to lend it to him.
To complete the acquisition of Yue Mei, Jiang Xu took several days off.
He kept everything about what he was doing confidential, not even letting An Nuonuo know.
Finally, on October 10th, he bought Yue Mei in full.
For this, Jiang Xu took on tens of billions of debt.
But he thought it was all worth it.
An Nuonuo had been with him for so long, always helping him unconditionally.
Jiang Xu had yet to give her a serious and decent gift.
At the same time, he also renamed Yue Mei to ‘Nuomi Cosmetics Company.’
This company had only one shareholder, which was An Nuonuo.
One hundred percent ownership.
Although due to the failed IPO, the company had been weakened and sales had declined,
for Jiang Xu, that wasn’t a big deal.
With integration into e-commerce, it could take off.
Today marked two months, sixty days, since he’d been together with An Nuonuo.
Jiang Xu had prepared a table full of sumptuous food at home before he called An Nuonuo over.
Before long, An Nuonuo arrived.
The moment she opened the door, An Nuonuo’s action took Jiang Xu by surprise.
