Reborn 92's Business Tycoon - Chapter 625: Focus on picking up the leaks

Chapter 625: Chapter 625: Focus on picking up the leaks

Just as Jin Ling was comforted, Feng Yiping once again recklessly abandoned this pile of work and continued to have fun without a care in the world?

No, no, he naturally had other things on his mind this time he went to the east.

But before getting down to business, of course, he had to accompany Huang Jingping on an in-depth tour of the United States.

This trip was probably the one where they took the most photos together, which was an added bonus of having an assistant.

The funniest thing was when they were in front of the White House, Huang Jingping suddenly said, ‘So it’s here, I always thought it was in New York,’

Well, you can’t expect lesbians to have common sense in this area, and you really can’t blame them. In the minds of the general public, New York is definitely more well-known than Washington DC.

This time in New York, Feng Yiping took her for a ride. Last time he came on his own, he saw Manhattan by boat, but this time, he saw New York from a bird’s eye view in a helicopter.

As the helicopter soared through the blue sky, taking in the view of all the skyscrapers in Manhattan, Huang Jingping couldn’t sit still and kept jumping up and down, hugging Feng Yiping’s arm.

When they flew past the Statue of Liberty, Feng Yiping suddenly felt a sense of triumph, like Ah Q. The symbol of the United States of America is now right under my butt, isn’t it?

However, that feeling of triumph only lasted a short while. In the afternoon, Huang Jingping went to Fifth Avenue, while Feng Yiping went to Wall Street to visit some financiers he had met before.

It was necessary to go to Nasdaq to raise funds and strengthen ties with them.

‘Ah, you’re not going to accompany me?’ Once abroad, Huang Jingping, like Feng Yiping, became much more outgoing. In public, she actually pulled Feng Yiping and started to act spoiled.

‘There’s nothing I can do about it. I’ve spent so much time with them already, it’s not easy to change. Go ahead, have a good time, finish my share of the shopping, and wait for me for dinner tonight,’ said Feng Yiping with a very apologetic look.

Men really are like this. After getting together, they accompany women shopping, and even if it can’t be called suffering, it’s definitely not a pleasure.

This afternoon, Feng Yiping kept on the go, visiting the four major investment banks: Goldman Sachs, Merrill Lynch, Morgan Stanley, and Citigroup.

There was no real business to be done, just meeting to chat about recent developments and introduce himself and his company. After all, the people he was meeting knew exactly what he was up to.

The next day was when the real business would begin. He would be allocating two hundred million dollars in succession to a number of investment companies, all buying September futures contracts. This was a rare opportunity to engage in short-term trading, so how could he not take advantage of it?

Buying and investing in so many companies in the US and buying so much property was very expensive.

How can I not make a profit to supplement my funds?

…

In Corning, Jingping Huang took Yiping Feng’s hand as they strolled along the comfortable streets. ‘The greenery here is really nice, like a park, but also quiet like a nursing home. It’s really nice. Tell me, if only our town could be like this!’

‘That depends on Mayor Chengzhong Huang,’ Feng Yiping said with a smile.

Huang Jingping gave him a quick smack.

‘But in the future, we can rely on the greenery here for our greenery. As for tranquillity, forget about it. How many people are there in the United States? How many people are there in our country?’

…

Corning Inc. Joanna, who had received Feng Yiping last time, has been very busy recently.

Entering this year, the impact of the bursting of the Internet bubble is deepening, and the impact on Corning Inc. is also intensifying.

In terms of the optical fibre business, many of the contracts that have been signed have become worthless, because many of the companies on the other side of the contract no longer exist.

In such an environment, the signing of new contracts is really a matter of chance.

The company’s senior management have taken the initiative to go out and find new business, and it is said that layoffs or salary cuts are already being considered. The employees below them are generally under a lot of pressure, and none of them are working any harder than before.

She was working on a reception plan when she heard that a Mr Feng was visiting. She was momentarily confused before remembering, Could it be him?

Who else would be in the reception room but Feng Yiping?

‘Hello Joanna, sorry I didn’t make an appointment. This is my girlfriend Huang,’

‘Hello Huang,’ she is a very gentle and pretty girl.

‘Hello Joanna, thank you for the kitchenware and tableware you sent, they are all very useful,’ Huang Jingping said with a smile.

‘Thank you for your praise,’ Joanna saw as soon as she entered the door that they were carrying several bags, and on closer inspection, they were the goods for sale at their own glass museum.

‘These are some small souvenirs we brought from China. I hope you like them,’ Huang Jingping handed her two beautifully packaged boxes.

‘Thank you,’ Joanna opened them on the spot and immediately exclaimed, ‘Wow, they’re beautiful,’

They were not the same old souvenirs that fool foreigners, but a cloud brocade notebook with a very Chinese style and a cloud brocade well frame with a dragon pattern and the character ‘fu’. Although they were not exquisite, they were splendid in colour and finely made, as beautiful as clouds and flames. They were of a high class even if we used them ourselves.

‘This silk is so beautiful, it’s almost all art,’ said Joanna, touching the two items.

This is art!

Feng Yiping also didn’t tell her the difference between silk and brocade, but simply said, ‘This kind of silk handicraft cannot be processed by machines at present, and can only be hand-made. Do you know that the emperors of our country used to have their dragon robes woven with this kind of brocade?’

The words hand-made and emperor deeply impressed Joanna, and they liked such things. ‘Thank you very much for the gifts, I will definitely take good care of them,’

‘Feng, are you travelling with Huang this time?’

‘I forgot to tell you, starting in the autumn I’ll be spending a year as an exchange student at Stanford Business School. Before the semester started, I brought my girlfriend to the East to see the sights. Yesterday in New York, she heard me describe your glass museum and was very interested, so I took the liberty of coming today,’

‘You’re spending a year at Stanford? That’s great news! Just, Feng, you should have called me during your visit so I could have been a tour guide for once,’ Joanna said with a smile.

‘It’s not a bother. By the way, is Mr Benjamin here? I’ve brought him two souvenirs this time,’ said Feng Yiping, pointing to the other bag.

The souvenirs for Benjamin were more high-end, containing a tapestry and a brocade tie.

‘I’m sorry, President Benjamin is out on business,’

‘That’s understandable. It seems your company is doing very well,’ Feng Yiping said with a smile, his tone sincere. Only he knew that he was speaking ironically. ‘Then please give it to him,’

‘We won’t bother you anymore. Goodbye!’

Although Feng Yiping was envious of the Chemcor glass they had put on the shelf, and that was the reason for his visit this time, he never mentioned it once from beginning to end.

It is not easy to pick up bargains from these century-old stores. If they feel that you are being too deliberate, these old foxes will definitely be on their guard.

Feng Yiping firmly declined Joanna’s repeated entreaties, saying, ‘I’m really sorry, but I have to go to Chicago tomorrow to attend a signing ceremony. We have successfully acquired a stake in a company.’

He said this without any intention of showing off, but the effect was just the same. He was not poor, and he had many interesting projects.
