I earn really hard money

Chapter 160 Beauty Cake King
Pan Lanxin tilted her head to look at He Xia, and muttered, "Strange."

"What's so strange?" He Xia asked.

"It seems like a week ago, I also had lunch with you at noon, you sold... art, and then the auction house transferred the money to you!"

Pan Lanxin said thoughtfully.

He Xia raised her eyes: "Is there? Such a coincidence?"

He really didn't pay attention to this matter. He only remembered it after Pan Lanxin mentioned it. It was indeed the case. After returning from the Journey World last time, he also received a call from Ruby when he was having dinner with Pan Lanxin.

This time it was the same again.

"It seems that you are quite prosperous, so please make me prosperous in the future!"

"What are you talking about...you are Wangcai." Pan Lanxin stuffed the steak into her mouth, her cheeks bulging.

After the two had dinner, He Xia drove the car back to the community and parked it, and then found a commercial vehicle from the taxi app.

About half an hour later, a Mercedes-Benz V260 stopped at the gate of Yishui Xiaoyuan.

"Mr. He, I am your driver, Xiao Yang, and I will serve you wholeheartedly."

The driver was a young man with a clean and square face. He looked about one or two years older than He Xia, and he must be under thirty. He Xia opened the door very enthusiastically.

He Xia waved to Pan Lanxin, sat in the car and closed the door, and the car drove towards Beijing International Airport.

Sitting comfortably in the second row, He Xia's phone vibrated slightly, and it showed that the money had arrived. She glanced at the account, and the balance: $42!

The generous savings made He Xia feel that life is full of brilliance, and everything he sees is particularly pleasing to the eye, even the shared bicycles lying on the side of the road are full of artistic sense.

Lying in the car and listening to the music, he suddenly discovered something. Although there are two cars at present, one is a two-door four-seater GT sports car, and the other is an authentic super sports car...

That is to say, there is not even a serious car, so if you really want to take a few more girls for a ride, or take a long trip, it is not convenient.

"Well, that doesn't make sense."

Of course it's unreasonable. As a bigwig with over 50 million cash deposits and over [-] billion high-quality real estate, how could he be so shabby?

Thinking of this, He Xia chatted with the driver.

"Xiao Yang, do you bring a car or a full-time driver?"

Xiao Yang smiled and said, "Mr. He thinks highly of me, I can't afford a big Mercedes... The car belongs to the company, and I'm a full-time driver hired by the company."

"How many years have you been in this business?" He Xia asked.

"Three years."

"How is the treatment?"

"It's okay. It's impossible to get rich. It's not a problem to have a full stomach. I can save a little bit every month."

Xiao Yang replied with a smile, optimistic and positive, and was quite satisfied with the current life and work.

"If you had to choose between your current job and being a personal driver for your boss, which would you choose?"

He Xia asked.

Xiao Yang was overjoyed, he was not stupid, he understood the meaning of He Xia's words, but he didn't answer directly, but said: "Then...hehe, it still depends on how much the boss pays the driver for a month, and other things. The treatment is not perfect.”

"Haha, it's pretty comprehensive. It's 100 a month, the insurance is [-]% paid, and the rest time is not fixed. Anyway, I rest when I have nothing to do."

He Xia planned to hire a full-time driver, and was too lazy to ask the HR department to bother him. When he met him, he just asked. He felt that Xiao Yang was okay, and he looked pleasing to the eye.

"Such a good treatment is simply wished for!"

Xiao Yang directly expressed the desire in his heart. He only had more than 8000 a month in the most three years of his employment, but he could not be disturbed even if he was off duty.

But if you want to earn more, you must pay more.

"Haha, you're pretty good at talking, can you drive any car?"

He Xia asked.

"Almost, it's B-book at present, and you can take A-book if you need it."

Xiao Yang answered confidently.

The A1 book needs to be at least 26 years old. He has just reached the age, but there is no need for the A1 book in his current work, so he didn't spend time and money to take the test.

"OK, then join my company after completing today's order, and become a full-time driver in the future, is there any problem?"

He Xia asked.

"I can't ask for it, thank you, Mr. He!"

Xiao Yang thanked him repeatedly, he didn't expect to get a promotion and raise his salary when he made a trip and met a nobleman, and the future prospects will be even better!

He decided to study the relevant knowledge and precautions of full-time drivers after he went back, and he must seize this opportunity.

While chatting, the two arrived at the Beijing International Airport.

At the airport pick-up port, Xiao Yang vigorously held up a sign with the two English names of Fisher and Frankel written on it.

After a while, a woman about 1.7 meters tall walked up to He Xia, followed by two Westerners.

"Hi, is this the person from the Cambridge Biomedical Laboratory?"

The woman swept her moth eyebrows lightly, her long black hair was draped behind her back, and a strand of her hair hung down from each temple to her shoulders. No matter in appearance, manner or dress, she was very elegant.

He Xia's eyes lit up, the woman in front of him gave him a feeling of deja vu, coupled with the other party's question, an extremely reliable guess immediately popped up in his mind.

"Excuse me, are you Zhou Shiliu's sister?"

"Excuse me, are you the one Zhou Shiliu said that the dairy factory needs to test the nutritional content of milk?"

The woman didn't answer the question, but asked back, the corners of her mouth naturally turned up, and she supported the sun hat on her head.

He Xia smiled and nodded: "It's me, He Xia, hello."

"Zhou Shiyu, Zhou Shiliu's sister, hello."

Zhou Shiyu looked at He Xia with strange eyes, she knew her sister too well, she would not think about it if she couldn't beat her, the small boy in front of her couldn't beat Zhou Shiliu...

In this way, it is very likely that the two are really just simple business partners, which makes her feel a little disappointed.

He Xia also looked at Zhou Shiyu without hesitation.

Well-proportioned figure, elegant outfit, delicate facial features that are more restrained than Zhou Shiliu's, the corners of her mouth are beautiful, always with a faint intellectual smile, giving people the feeling of a big sister next door.

It's easy to imagine Zhou Shiyu sitting under a big tree cross-legged and reading a book.

"My sister roared and pulled up the weeping willows, and my sister held up her sleeves and played the pipa. This contrast, it seems that I am not a child of my father..."

He Xia felt interesting in her heart, and was very interested in Zhou Shiyu, who was beautiful, intellectual and highly educated. At the same time, she was also a little puzzled. Zhou Shiliu never said that her sister would come, which was strange.

"Student masters are a thing of the past..."

Zhou Shiyu didn't know what He Xia was thinking, just like He Xia didn't know what she was thinking, she pointed to the two behind her and introduced: "This is Fisher, a laboratory researcher, Frankel, a genetic engineering major Graduate students, follow the tutor to do the project, come to help."

He Xia shook hands with the two of them one by one.

"You guys get busy. I'll come back to see grandpa. By the way, I'll meet Zhou Shiliu and He Xia. Do me a favor. Don't tell Zhou Shiliu that I'm back. I'll go back and scare her. Goodbye!"

After all, Zhou Shiyu dragged the small suitcase and walked towards the taxi stop.

"So Zhou Shiliu didn't know either..."

He Xia muttered to himself, then greeted the two researchers to get into the car and left the airport.

Fortunately, He Xia has a good command of English, and it was very easy to communicate. He expressed his meaning, and the other party said there was no problem.

He Xia asked the driver, Xiao Yang, to send the two lab personnel directly to Shishi, and notified the people from Xia Muye to receive them, so he didn't need to worry about the rest.

He Xia came to the company in the afternoon. After yesterday's decentralization, it was obviously much easier. The department managers of the company can finalize the plans for many things. They don't need to do everything personally, but report the situation more.

He Xia learned that the staff of the art management team had already started work at the audition location, and the location, temporary staff, recording team, etc. were all ready, and the audition was just starting!
When He Xia was busy working in the company, Zhou Shiliu was sitting on the sofa at home looking at his elder sister with a depressed face.

"Shiliu, I saw the guy you mentioned, he looks pretty good, but...he doesn't look like the guy you like."

Zhou Shiyu put her legs together elegantly and asked with a smile.

"You flew [-] kilometers and came back just to gossip about me? Go, go, grandpa is playing chess with Uncle Jiang in the senior center, go find grandpa!"

Zhou Shiliu was very speechless, she was discussing the effect of the reality show with the design company on the Internet, never thought that her sister would come back suddenly, and ask about her boyfriend as soon as they met, vulgar!

"I'm not going. There are too many people there. It's so uncomfortable to ask questions...Grandpa will come back naturally during dinner."

Zhou Shiyu complained that she was very repulsive to social interaction, especially when dealing with elders.

"And you said that you are not active at all when you come back to see grandpa. What are you doing back here..." Zhou Shiliu asked.

"Well, of course I have something important to do when I come back."

While talking, Zhou Shiyu leaned back on the sofa with a look of helplessness on his face.

Zhou Shiliu saw that her sister seemed to be in a low mood, and asked, "Did you feel frustrated? By the way, the one who chased you at the beginning of the year, how is it going? When do you plan to meet your parents?"

"What kind of parents do you see? His family used to buy cheap international crude oil, and then went bankrupt. His mother was admitted to a mental hospital, and he followed his father to South America to avoid debts..."

"puff……"

Zhou Shiliu laughed directly. She knew that the price of international crude oil fluctuated a few days ago. Many people, whether long or short, had their positions liquidated. It can be called a feast of capital!

"I didn't expect that he was right!"

Before, He Xia teased that the guy chasing after Zhou Shiyu, the so-called heir of a big family, might be from Xibei, but now it seems that it doesn't matter whether he is from Xibei or not!

"Him? He Xia? Why do you tell him everything!"

Zhou Shiyu looked at her sister dissatisfied.

"He asked me about you, and I told him not to make up his mind, and just said that you are already with the contemporary heir of a big family in England..."

"What kind of big family, at most they can be regarded as upstarts, and now they are no longer upstarts."

Zhou Shiyu spread his hands helplessly, and then said sternly: "I reminded me of one thing, little girl, you spend every day in the financial market, be careful when you fall into it, why don't you think about it, stop playing, and do something else!"

Zhou Shiliu shook his head again and again: "I don't want it. I just like the excitement of the financial market. Why don't I play? I have a good grasp of it. From stepping into the financial market to now, I have earned more than I lost!"

"Okay...Actually, the most important thing for me to come back this time is..."

Having said that, Zhou Shiyu paused, and looked at Zhou Shiliu seriously.

"Tell me, what's the matter?" Zhou Shiliu was very anxious, and couldn't stand showing off.

"You know that I have been doing experiments with Professor Smith, so do you know what kind of experiments it is?" Zhou Shiyu asked.

Zhou Shiliu shook his head: "I know it's a biomedical experiment, so tell me, what's going on..."

"We are doing genetic research and experiments. The purpose is to modify the gene sequence in a controllable way, so as to achieve the purpose of improving human physique, further making human beings immune to diseases, and at the same time preventing and curing diseases!"

Zhou Shiyu said slowly.

After listening to this, Zhou Shiliu was thoughtful, his eyes lit up after a while, and said: "Does it mean that if you want to be smart, you can become smart, if you want to be beautiful, you can become beautiful, if you want to be strong, you can become strong?"

"You are talking about changing your physique, which is theoretically supported."

Zhou Shiyu replied with a smile, but their experiment is still far from the theory.

"God..."

Zhou Shiliu looked at Zhou Shiyu in disbelief, and said, "Are you planning to do what God wants to do?"

Zhou Shiyu closed her eyes and shook her head, "Why do you react like those guys!"

"Who are those guys?" Zhou Shiliu asked.

"Recently, Professor Smith released his latest research results, and announced the future plan and direction of the laboratory. The results were rejected by mainstream academics. In addition, several years have passed, and the experiment has not made significant progress. The college stopped appropriating funds to the laboratory. ..."

"Those who are negative also say like you, that we try to be God, but what does that have to do with being God?"

Zhou Shiliu thought for a while, and said, "Every one of us is born randomly in this world, but according to the theory you just said, once this technology matures, it can completely determine a person's... well."

Seemingly unable to find the right words, Zhou Shiliu thought for a long time, and said: "Parameters, yes, you try to determine the parameters of a person in all aspects, this is not what God is..."

Zhou Shiyu argues: "If this technology gets a breakthrough, it can solve many problems, won't it?"

"The defects of the human body can be corrected to the greatest extent, and human beings can also be free from diseases. There will be no more so-called terminal illnesses, and even regenerate telomeres to prolong life. Shouldn't this be the direction of scientific efforts?"

"There's nothing wrong with what you said..."

Zhou Shiliu took a deep breath, she did not go to a bad university, and her education was not low, so she could naturally see the impact behind this incident.

"But how can you ensure that the science and technology you mentioned are applied to all mankind, and not controlled by a small group of people? You must know that it will form a very terrible, solidified, and irreversible class division!"

Zhou Shiyu pursed her lips, she knew all these things, but these things are not issues that scientists should consider!
"The birth of every cutting-edge technology cannot benefit all mankind in the first place. Looking back at history, you will find this. Technology must always move forward. We are the promoters, and the rest is out of our control... "

"What's more, the current research is still in a very immature stage. At present, we can only do experiments on animals, which is far from the theory. It is meaningless to argue about these things now, just like imagining that the uneven distribution of funds in the jackpot leads to the divorce of couples. as stupid as..."

Zhou Shiliu spread her hands, agreed with her sister's last example, and said, "Okay, let's get back to the topic itself, and talk about your current difficulties..."

Even though there were many difficulties, Zhou Shiyu still had a faint smile on his face, and said in a gentle manner: "The experiment cannot continue due to the limited funds. I came back this time to ask you to raise part of the experiment funds..."

"Huh?" Zhou Shiliu sat cross-legged, scratching her feet with her fingers, and looked at the elder sister in confusion.

"Sister, are you okay? You ask me to borrow money... You ask Dad for it. Funding experiments is not easy. I am a poor man who begs in the financial market every day. You ask me to raise money?"

Dealing with tens of millions of funds at every turn, but claiming to be poor, this makes the real poor very sad...

Zhou Shiyu stroked her hair and said, "How do you know that I haven't contacted Dad..."

"Ah?" Zhou Shiliu said incredulously, "Dad doesn't agree?"

"I didn't say I disagreed, but I made a request, and then I thought I couldn't do it, so I didn't agree to him, and then there was no more..."

Zhou Shiyu spread her hands helplessly. She has hardly made money in a serious way. She only set up a street stall when the school held activities, and played a few days with other students during the university practice week...

Missy doesn't understand the difficulty of making money at all.

From childhood to adulthood, she only needs to study hard, and when she has no money, tell her parents that she will have enough money to spend...

It wasn't until the laboratory was blocked by the college and her parents didn't give her money that she realized that money was so important and hard to get.

Of course, not only Zhou Shiyu, but all the participants in the project are trying to find ways to raise money. Unless you don't want to continue the experiment, funding is the first step!
"What request?"

Zhou Shiliu was curious. Compared to herself, she felt that her father liked her sister more, and she almost responded to every request, why this time was an exception.

"Let me find a suitable person to fall in love with before the end of the year, and don't ask for marriage..."

Zhou Shiyu pinched her forehead when she mentioned this, she only wants to do experiments now, genetic engineering is a part of the future of mankind, but his father is obsessed with love and love, which makes her very sad!

"This...it's really not easy to do, Dad is really amazing."

Zhou Shiliu nodded empathetically.

If it's just a relationship, it's extremely simple, as long as you are perfunctory with someone who is interesting to you, go shopping and take pictures, and you can get through it easily in a few clicks.

But it is not easy to add the condition of "appropriate".

Zhou Shiliu is very clear about the concept of suitability in his father's mouth, which means that his family background and his own conditions can match him.

In other words, to find a suitable partner for Zhou Shiyu, at least one must have graduated from a world-class prestigious school, and the family conditions should be comparable, so it is very difficult!
Anyway, if this condition is added to him, Zhou Shiliu will also feel very difficult. It is not easy to find someone who can cooperate with the acting. He will definitely find it, but it will take some effort, and there is no guarantee that the other party will agree. After all, the other party also has to consider the influence .

"So I can only look for you and grandpa... Yes, Mom and Dad are on the same front. I have already asked, so don't think about it!"

Zhou Shiyu shook her head helplessly, love is just one of human emotions, and even said that as long as one part is taken from the gene sequence, human beings will not care about love at all!

I really don't understand what is important about love. There are more important things than love, such as rewriting the gene sequence.

"It stands to reason that your project is led by a well-known professor, and there is enough theory to support it, so you can't attract investment?"

Zhou Shiliu asked.

Zhou Shiyu shrugged and said, "I don't know much about attracting investment..."

"Okay... how short is the funding gap for your experiment? How long is the expected return? What is the rate of return?"

Zhou Shiliu studies finance, and investment scientific research is also investment. Naturally, when investing, one must be clear about the return period and rate of return.

Zhou Shiyu smiled slightly, a small dimple appeared on her cheek, she shook her head slightly and said, "Maintaining the continued operation of the laboratory requires 600 million pounds per month. As for the payback cycle and rate of return, it's hard to say at the moment..."

Part of the £600 million is spent on labor costs, mostly to maintain state-of-the-art equipment, proprietary software and rare raw materials.

"For a cutting-edge scientific research and development, 600 million pounds a month is not much...but I really can't afford an investment for a few months without a clear return, sister, I... Hehe, I'm sorry I can't do anything."

Zhou Shiliu waved his hands in embarrassment.

As she said, 600 million pounds a month is less than [-] million pounds a year, which is nothing compared to some large-scale research and development projects, such as the Large Hadron Collider, which has a budget of tens of billions of dollars. ...

If there is a clear prospect, Zhou Shiliu can think of a way to raise funds for about a year. It is a gamble.

But if there is no clear future, it is more like a business that is doomed to lose money. As a qualified investor, you can't do things that are sure to lose but not make money.

This kind of project can only be handed over to the government, or chaebols and consortiums with extremely strong funds and who don't care about the return cycle.

Zhou Shiyu gave his younger sister a shallow look, and said: "A little money fan will know the benefits and rewards every day. Once the experiment is successful, the Nobel Prize will be sent home to you. The initiator of the singularity of genetic engineering is the pioneer who will be praised by future generations!"

"Just like the Medici family in the Renaissance, whenever people mention the Renaissance, they will never forget that great family. If our experiment is successful, the investors will definitely pass it on forever!"

Highly educated people are no worse than politicians when they draw cakes. They are filled with sesame seeds and sauce, and they are delicious and crispy.

Zhou Shiliu would like to make the elder sister a new generation cake king!
"How much is the Nobel Prize? Things like eternal life will be even more depressing..."

"I never expected to have my own bronze statue. The great cause of promoting human development is left to you. My ambition is not that great. I just want to buy stocks, crude oil, gold and foreign exchange, earn a little money and spend it, hehe .”

Zhou Shiliu is very realistic...

　Thanks to my emperor i for the 1500 reward.
