The high-speed train departs from Shangjing and reaches Daicheng in more than an hour.

Lu Cheng was not clean when he returned home because many people came to pay New Year greetings. He had to go out to return the gifts and also went to Jiang's house to pay New Year greetings.

Huang Yingyi is both his mother-in-law and his graduate tutor.

He found a car and pulled out a round table with a diameter of two meters, six chairs, and a retro writing desk. When he placed these furniture outside Jiang's house, the furniture gave off a golden luster and attracted a lot of attention.

Neighbors came over to watch, including some who came out to pay New Year greetings.

Many people were talking around the furniture:

"What kind of wood is this? Why is it so beautiful?"

"Did you apply gold powder on it?"

"Did you use special paint?"

"This seems to be golden nanmu! I saw an advertisement on TV two days ago. I heard that there is a woodware factory in Daicheng that produces a batch of golden nanmu furniture. This thing is very expensive, easily worth tens of millions!

"

Jiang Fangsheng opened the door and saw the furniture. His eyes also shone, and he thought to himself: "This son-in-law is really awesome! He actually gave me such a high-end gift!"

Someone next to me asked: "Mr. Jiang, who is this young man? Why do I give you such a heavy New Year's gift?"

Someone not far away laughed and said, "You are really a mortal! As a native of Daicheng, even Lu Cheng doesn't know you!"

"Lu Cheng? It sounds familiar."

"You live in a mountain village? Do you have internet access at home? How come you don't even know about such a big thing?"

Another person said: "Congratulations to Mr. Jiang, you have such a good son-in-law!"

Someone echoed: "How enviable! During the Chinese New Year, I will give you tens of millions of dollars in gifts! This young man is not an easy person!"

Jiang Qiuyun came over and twisted his arm: "Humph! You are acting strange again! Why don't you send the furniture directly to your home? Why put it outside!" What she meant was: "You have storage equipment, and I also have storage equipment.

My parents also have amulets, and they are not afraid of you showing off your ability to store things. Why do you put the furniture outside? Isn’t this intentional for people to see?"

Lu Cheng didn't mean to show it to others, but it was out of habit. In addition, there was already more furniture in the room, and he couldn't put it away when he suddenly moved it in.

Jiang Fangsheng is coming to move the table.

Jiang Qiuyun said: "Dad, don't move, let us come."

"The desk looks heavy. Can it be moved?"

"no problem."

Lu Cheng and Jiang Qiuyun carefully moved the furniture out of the house and moved the new furniture in.

Jiang Fangsheng liked that writing table very much. He stretched out his hand to touch the tabletop and said with a smile: "If I write on such a table, I can improve my calligraphy skills by at least 20%!"

Jiang Qiuyun said: "How can it be! Dad, you are too exaggerated!"

Lu Cheng said: "It is really possible! This is not an ordinary golden nanmu. The pattern on it is similar to the 'Thunder Cloud Pattern'. Observing it more will help you understand the way of heaven."

Jiang Qiuyun asked: "What to do with the furniture left outside?"

Lu Cheng originally wanted to say: "I'll take it with me when I leave."

Jiang Fangsheng said, "I'll post a post in the friend group and if anyone needs it, I'll drag it away."

So Lu Cheng left it alone.

I went into the room and sat for a while, talking about the Spring Festival Gala.

Jiang Qiuyun said: "I saw you on TV. You were standing on the stage, wearing sportswear and no makeup. You looked a bit silly."

Lu Cheng said: "What's so stupid! That's called simplicity and simplicity! It's both popular and professional!"

"Where is it popular? Where is it special?"

"Take responsibility for the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation! Strive for glory for the Olympics and keep fit! A strong youth will make a country strong, and a wise youth will make a country wise. The sky is blue and the earth is yellow. Even though there are thousands of years, there are eight wastes. The future is like the sea, and the future is long.

!”

"Huh? How do you remember these words?"

"Hey, I'll remember it after reading it once."

"You are 25 years old, you are still a teenager!"

"If I could live to be 160, wouldn't I still be a teenager at 25?"

Jiang Qiuyun remembered what he said, practicing "Three Flowers Gathering Five Qi Chaoyuan" could live 300 years. When she heard that 160 years old, she felt it was normal.

The two bickered and grinded their teeth for half an hour before Lu Cheng returned to the Mid-level Villa.

He began to cut the 20 rough jade stones. In order to buy these rough stones, he spent 130 million.

He used a cutting machine to remove the skin and reveal the jade flesh.

Sure enough, among the 20 rough stones, there were 10 waxy ice types, 6 ice types, 3 high ice types, and 1 glass type.

These rough stones are relatively large, at least 30 kilograms or more, and the largest one is 280 kilograms. After grinding off the skin and cutting off the stone, the remaining jade materials add up to a considerable amount. The disadvantage is that there are not many high-quality pigments.

Lu Cheng knows that this is a normal thing. It is very rare to find a piece of high-ice color material in a rough stone store. Colorful glass materials are as scarce as rare flowers. This is the market in 2029.

There are fewer and fewer good jadeite rough stones. Because of the use of large machines for mining in recent years, many mines have been dug out.

Then, he took out the "Water Escape Talisman" and the "Earth Escape Talisman" and pondered for a while.

"I can't try these two talismans easily, because there is no air underground, and I haven't advanced to the innate level yet. I will be out of breath when I get underground, and it is easy to suffocate to death underground. Unless I bring an oxygen bottle!"

So, he put away these two kinds of jade talismans. He would not use them easily unless absolutely necessary.

In the blink of an eye, it’s the seventh day of the first lunar month, which is February 20th.

Early that morning, Lu Cheng drove to pick up Jiang Qiuyun, rushed to the high-speed rail station, and took the first train to Shanghai.

They sat in first class because it was still during the Spring Festival and there were not many people around.

Jiang Qiuyun said: "Did you know that among the current novel websites, Fanghua Novel Network occupies half of the sky for female channels, and Chinese Novel Network is the main male channel. Fanghua Novel Network is also a listed company, and its current market value is similar to that of Hanwen."

Lu Cheng asked: "I remember that there is also a channel for girls in Chinese, right?"

"It originally existed, but later it was sold to Fanghua Novel Network. Fanghua Novel Network also merged with a number of novel websites, and its original male videos were sold to Hanwen, and only the female videos were retained."

"Are you the youthful Nanpowan now?"

"In 2028, although I have very high subscriptions for several books, my total income is not the first, but only the third."

"Who's number one?"

"Jia Yuanchun."

"Why is it called such a name?"

"It's a pen name, my real name is Huang Sigu."

"Haha, this name is even weirder."

"Sigu Huang is a veteran author. She currently has ten books online, so her income is relatively high. Three of her books have been made into movies and TV series."

"Is this man forty years old?"

"I don't know. It always happens when you are in your thirties."

Lu Cheng asked again: "Who is second?"

Jiang Qiuyun replied: "The second name 'Guo Hongxiu' is her real name. She is also an old author."

Lu Cheng asked again: "Why does the novel website hold an annual meeting?"

"Because it is a listed company, it needs to promote its business, publicize its achievements, and reward authors."

"So there's a bonus?"

Jiang Qiuyun replied: "Yes, this time, options will be awarded directly to great writers. According to last year's income, one option will be awarded for every 10,000 yuan of income. Options are not equal to stocks. They are a right to purchase stocks. The exercise price is

5.4 yuan per share. One lot is 100 shares.”

Lu Cheng asked: "What is its current stock price?"

"The current stock price is 18 yuan."

"In other words, it's 70% cheaper."

"My subscription income last year was 88 million, and rewards were 37 million. Including TV drama licensing fees, and peripheral development of audio comics and the like, the total income was 220 million. To exercise the option and buy shares, I need to spend 11.88 million."

"This is equivalent to increasing the capital of Fanghua Novel Network."

"Well, maybe someone gave up on exercising their rights."

Lu Cheng said with a smile: "I won't give up and buy it! This little money is nothing."

This was the first time he knew about Jiang Qiuyun's financial situation. These were only the income from Fanghua Novel Network. There were also two books, including "Ruan Lang Gui" and "Barefoot Ah Zhen". They took the physical publishing route, and the income did not include

Inside.

He thought to himself: "This girl is a treasure trove. Writing novels is not a one-time deal. Just like Jin Yong, his novels have been filmed and remade again and again, and I don't know how many times they have been remade."

Similarly, Jiang Qiuyun knew that he bought jade, made endorsements, and sent jade items to auctions, but she didn't know exactly how much money he made. She didn't need to know clearly, anyway, she had many top-notch jade bracelets in her hands.
