I am reborn and just want to concentrate on my studies

In the coffee shop, soft music lingers. The guests are all extremely well-educated people. Most of the conversations are gentle and harmonious in the background of the music. Occasionally, there is the honking of cars outside the window and the fragrance of coffee. Jiang Lili hears There were faint footsteps outside. He raised his neck slightly, raised his head and looked at the ceiling above his head quietly, thinking about something in his mind.

Yi Yang was still massaging her feet gently.

In fact, although she acted somewhat calmly at this time, her heart was actually throbbing. She did not expect that Yi Yang would be willing to do such a thing for her.

It's not a particularly exaggerated thing. Whether it's in romance novels or on TV, you can seem to see such scenes, but if a boy is willing to hold his own feet, rub and massage them, he will be so careful and numb. The touch was transmitted from the soles of my feet and spread to my heart bit by bit.

She slowly put away her feet, then adjusted her posture and gently leaned on Yi Yang's shoulder.

"My feet are not tired anymore. Let me lean on you."

"Um."

"Yi Yang, do you know what I like about you?"

"I know, he's handsome."

Jiang Lili pinched Yi Yang, smiled sweetly, left his shoulder, looked at Yi Yang seriously, snorted, and continued to lean in.

"There are many, one of them is, gentleness."

Yi Yang nodded.

"Yi Yang, do you know what gentleness is?"

"I don't know...sister, tell me." Yi Yang said casually, gently grabbed Jiang Lili's hand and started playing with it.

"Have you ever heard of a sentence? A person with a clean heart, clear thinking, and no unnecessary emotions or delusions will give people a sense of security, because he does not hurt others or himself. He does not cause trouble and is not troublesome. other people."

"I heard it."

"Have you heard of it?"

"That's what Lin Yutang said."

"Huh? I hate it, so you've seen it before."

"hey-hey."

Jiang Lili stopped talking and leaned quietly on Yi Yang's shoulder. Yi Yang didn't speak either and quietly enjoyed the little time at this moment.

The setting sun dyed the clouds on the horizon red, and the buildings in the distance became hazy silhouettes.

…

The quiet time with Yi Yang didn't last long. Hou Lin invited him to have dinner in the evening. He couldn't refuse, so he had to send Jiang Lili back first.

This is one of the benefits of falling in love with a mature sister. She knows that you have important things to do, so she won't bab in a pretentious way, and she will have to think hard about how to coax her.

Jiang Lili said that he was a gentle person, but wasn't she the same?

Yi Yang feels that gentleness is not a personality, such as having a good temper, speaking softly, and speaking slowly. Real gentleness is an inner power, a rational power. This kind of power is that after seeing many people, one knows that healthy What is a love relationship like? Know how to restrain your desires, have clear eyes, but not abstinence, and also pursue passionate emotions.

Jiang Lili said: "Waiting for you at home, come back soon."

While talking, Jiang Lili looked at him with a provocative look, which made him feel a little itchy, and even had the urge: Uncle Hou, I'm sorry, I have to refuse your dinner... After calming down, he fiercely She thought to herself, beauties are a disaster, beauties are a disaster, and then he gently put her into a taxi.

Then he thought, But I am still willing to drown in such a disaster.

…

It was Xiaolong who came to pick up Yi Yang.

Tomorrow is the groundbreaking ceremony for the project. Today I specially brought Yi Yang over to talk about matters related to tomorrow.

Xiaolong drove the company's A8 over to pick up Yiyang. This car is new. Now the company has made a little money. Real estate is like this. After a project is successfully completed, the size quickly expands like a balloon. It's natural to switch to a better car and feel more confident when doing business receptions.

The car drove to the agreed place, and Xiaolong saw Yi Yang on the roadside at a glance. He couldn't help it, he was too conspicuous, standing there quietly, with a slender and strong figure, just like a star. Xiaolong even thought, Yi Yang If Yang participates in a celebrity talent show, it is very likely that he can also make money.

But of course, this idea is just a thought.

If we could go back a few years, we would still be envious of those glamorous celebrities, but in the past two years, Hou Lin has managed to get ahead, and the level of people and circles he has come into contact with has continued to increase. Following him, Xiaolong has also come into contact with some entertainment circles in the past two years. Of course, it's just the 18th-line kind, but I also roughly understand the true shape of that circle, and understand more deeply that it's not easy to get mixed up in any profession, and there is no need to be envious.

For someone with such good luck as Yi Yang, it would be... not smart to become a star.

Well, in Xiaolong's eyes, Yi Yang is a very lucky person.

Of course, this understanding is not based on contempt. He simply thinks that Yi Yang is lucky, but he will not be jealous of him because of it.

Naturally, he understood Yi Yang's growth trajectory: he worked hard and was admitted to one of the most prestigious universities in the country, but what he has now, in his opinion, has nothing to do with studying. relation. Xiaolong just felt that he had a powerful father, and at the same time, his father also had an affectionate brother, so by some combination of circumstances, he could own 40% of the company's shares.

That is a wealth that many people cannot strive for in their lifetime.

Of course, he also knows that the company has made a lot of money from the previous commercial street projects, but in general, their real estate company can only be regarded as a small company, and now all bets are placed on the square project in the north. On the market, there was not much cash flow, and he owed a large amount of foreign debt to the bank. However, he had experienced too many storms and understood that this was business. Before riding the next wave and leaping high, he needed to go through a short period of time. A small low point.

The future Mr. Yi doesn't need to do anything, just wait patiently for the wave to hit.

Very lucky...

The car slowly stopped next to Yi Yang.

Yi Yang got into the car and asked, "Where are you going?"

"Mr. Hou's home."

"oh."

Xiaolong was a little older than Yi Yang. Yiyang felt a little awkward calling him Xiaolong, but it was also inappropriate to call him Brother Long. After thinking about it, he said, "Aaron, how much do you know about our project?"

Xiaolong thought for a while and said, "To be honest, I don't know much about it, but I think there should be no problem with Brother Hou Lin's decision."

Yi Yang nodded, thoughtfully.

Along the way, Yi Yang casually asked Xiaolong some questions and silently learned some things about the company.

Twenty minutes later, Yi Yang followed Xiaolong to Hou Lin's house.

Although the company is developing well, Hou Lin has no plans to change his house for a while, because he bought it early and his house is not small. If he wants to change, he cannot change to a large flat or villa. In fact, it is meaningless. Under the current conditions It seems that buying a villa or a large flat is still very difficult.

And for him, now is not the time to enjoy it. He has just completed his first big project, and his desire has expanded accordingly. Only by completing the next project will he feel that he has entered the "boss" position. "level.

Hou Lin also has several company managers in his family.

Today, the company's equity structure is very simple, because the current strategy is still steady and step-by-step. At the moment, there is only this one big project in hand, and the demand for funds is not that large, so there are no plans to increase capital or expand shares for the time being... And it is very important. The key point is that he is a relatively conservative person at heart. More investors mean the separation of control rights, and he cares about the power at the helm.

However, he gave shares to individual executives and did not touch Yiyang's shares. He knew that only in this way could he encourage them to sincerely contribute to the development of the company.

At this time, they were chatting in a lively manner.

Li Meng said: "Be strong first, then grow big. This is a truth that has been repeatedly proven by countless cases. Strength is the foundation. Without strength, you cannot make it big. In the real estate business, it is actually easy to make it big, but if Without a strong foundation, if it grows bigger it will be like a river bank hollowed out by termites, unable to withstand the wind and waves.”

"Commercial street projects are the most difficult project type for a real estate company. The easiest is residential. Our first big project was a commercial street. The success actually involved a lot of luck. When working on this project, how much management experience have you accumulated? Do you have your own competitiveness? What mistakes have you made, and have you found them out? These are all questions worth thinking about, and I think we haven’t thought about it enough.”

After Yi Yang came in, Hou Lin motioned for him to sit next to the main seat.

Yi Yang listened for a while and then understood what they were discussing. It turned out to be the topic of whether to expand the company's size.

Now that the company is in the spotlight, many people are a little bloated and think they can try to expand, but Li Meng firmly opposes it.

As Li Meng said, real estate companies can expand their company scale very quickly compared to other types of companies. The essence is that they can repeatedly copy the model of "use the money from this project to do the next project". If everything goes well. , within a few rounds, the number of large projects to be managed would have sprung up like mushrooms after a spring rain.

But the hidden dangers are huge. When expanding the scale, once the sales of the next project are not satisfactory, the cash inflow is insufficient, and the existing funds are not enough to complete the previous project, it is very likely to create the embarrassing situation of not being able to deliver finished houses. , which is the reason why unfinished buildings explode.

The bigger the stall, the greater the risk.

Hou Linwen asked with a smile: "Yi Yang, please tell me your opinion."

Yi Yang was of course firmly opposed to this.

He knew that the commercial plaza in the Xigu Industrial Park would be difficult to generate sufficient cash returns for at least two or three years, which meant that expansion would be almost suicide for a long time to come. Others did not know the future trend. They believe that after the commercial plaza starts pre-sales, funds will be collected quickly. And with the rapid development of real estate in the past two years, speed equals money.

Yi Yang couldn't help but glance at Li Meng again.

Yi Yang thought for a while and said: "The capital-intensive nature of the real estate industry determines that financing is the top priority of real estate operations and is also the basic guarantee for real estate development companies. There are many forms of real estate financing. Common ones include development loans and mergers and acquisitions. Loans, corporate bonds, corporate bonds, asset securitization, trust financing, etc. However, our company is currently very small and cannot meet the threshold of the latter financing methods. Moreover, the company does not have talents in this area and cannot solve the financing problems. Difficulty, then there is no way to expand the scale. I think that we must at least win the current project, accumulate experience, increase the company's net worth, and at least reach the baseline of 60 million corporate debt before we can think about expanding the scale. "

After a pause, Yi Yang smiled and said, "It's just something I learned from books. If it's wrong, please criticize and correct me."

Li Meng nodded repeatedly and said, "I heard that Yi Yang studied finance and spoke very professionally. Financing is indeed a difficult issue that we need to think about. I think the lecture was very good."

"Going back to the topic I just talked about, a company that wants to grow bigger must be strong enough. The standards for strength here are different for different industries. For a real estate company like ours, what is strength?" He said After looking at Hou Lin, he found that Hou Lin had no intention of interrupting him, so he continued, "As Yi Yang said, the first thing is funds. Are our financing channels stable enough? Is financial management scientific enough?"

"In addition to financing, there is also marketing. To put it bluntly, our marketing is currently very poor. This is my responsibility. I need to criticize myself. Next, I will focus on this aspect of work. The essence of real estate It’s still about sales. Only when you sell it can you play the capital game.”

"Right now, let's finish the project in the Xigu Industrial Park first. We have our own construction team. Next, we should concentrate our manpower and energy on completing the shopping mall building as soon as possible." After Li Meng finished speaking, he picked up his wine glass. Said: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have talked about this today. I'll punish myself with a drink first, and then Chairman Hou will bring the first glass of wine!"

Hou Lin looked at Li Meng, smiled and said nothing.

Soon, the food was served, and everyone stopped talking about work and chatted about home affairs.

The wine bureau is naturally very harmonious. There is no middle-level female person present today. Apart from Xiaolong, Li Meng is the CEO of the company, and there are two old people from the former engineering team. One is responsible for managing other small projects, and there is no one else. .

Yi Yang drank wine, but not much, only half a liang.

This is also something that needs to be gradually adapted to, just do it little by little.

Late at night, Xiaolong sent him to the downstairs of Jiang Lili's house.

He walked quietly into the house. The lights had been turned off. It was estimated that Jiang Lili had also rested. Thinking back to what Jiang Lili said during the day, she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Then I went to the bathroom to wash up briefly, and then went back to my room to rest.

Not long after I lay down, I suddenly heard a "click" and the door to the room was opened.

Yi Yang narrowed his eyes.

The lights outside were on, and Jiang Lili stood at the door, looking at him calmly.

When Yi Yang saw Jiang Lili's dress, he couldn't calm down.
