Lin Chaoyang was confused.

But now his own pig wants to pay other people's cabbage, so he has nothing to worry about.

"Yan Yan!" He called out to his own cabbage passing by.

"Um?"

Yan Yan chewed the chocolate, her big eyes were cute.

"When you were in the fourth grade of junior high school, did you go out together to have something to eat?"

"Yes, I'll invite them too."

"Let me ask someone to come home, and my dad cooks them a delicious meal."

"Really?" Yan Yan was excited when he heard this.

"Of course it's true. When did Dad cheat you!" Lin Chaoyang promised.

"Then I'll call them now!"

Yan Yan couldn't wait to go into the house to call. Lin Chaoyang observed his daughter's expression and found nothing unusual.

That's good.

This time, you have to make a few more special dishes and develop your eyeliner to prevent problems before they happen.

Xiao Sun next to him was speechless, Boss, are you a bit too double-standard?

You don’t care about the cabbage you have from others, but you can see it very hard.

Everyone does what you do, and the resources of cabbage will become more and more tense in the future.

The next afternoon, Lin Chaoyang came to Gongjian Hutong to visit him and heard Tao's mother talk about something that happened in the morning.

Two days ago, Ji Xianlin's disciple named Liu Bo suddenly came to visit Tao's father and brought a set of "Books of History" published by his company, saying that he wanted to give it to Tao's father, but Tao's father refused.

"The Book Collection of History? Is it the set of books edited by Uncle Ji a few years ago?"

"yes."

"The Books of History" is a large series of books covering important Chinese dynasties from the pre-Qin period to the late Qing Dynasty. The whole book is divided into classics,

The four libraries of history, science and technology are divided into several categories.

It is said that there are more than 30,000 volumes in total, totaling 276 million words.

During the publication of a few years, it was once a legend in the domestic publishing industry and was included in the national "Eighth Five-Year Plan" key book publishing project, with a price of up to 68,000 yuan, which is quite valuable.

"I have seen that Liu Bo. I heard that business has been very big in recent years. But he has no merits and has not received any rewards. He suddenly came to my house to deliver me a book, and I was afraid that he had something to ask for, so I politely refused."

Tao's father was old but not confused. He had a good relationship with Ji Xianlin, but Ji Xianlin's disciples had no reason to give him tens of thousands of dollars for free.

His statement is very polite. If Lin Chaoyang said it, he could summarize it in one sentence:

If you have nothing to do, you will either be traitor or steal.

Liu Bo, who later generations knew him basically because of his relationship with actress Xu Qing.

This person was known as a "child prodigy" when he was a child. He was admitted to the Chinese Department of Wuhan University at the age of 14. Four years later, he entered the Hunan Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine and obtained a master's degree.

In 1984, at the age of 20, he became a doctoral student in the Department of Philosophy at Peking University, studying Oriental Philosophy under Ji Xianlin.

After graduation, he first served as the deputy editor-in-chief of the News Picture Newspaper in zZ City, Hunan, but failed to do business in his spare time. Then he rushed to Hainan, and was airborne as an editor-in-chief of the Hainan Special Zone Newspaper, and was also a guest, making a great success.

In 1992, he racked his brains and finally came up with a "stunning trick": editing and publishing "The Book of History".

This is a huge cultural project that "shocks the world and the earth and makes ghosts cry". The book has a total of 123 volumes, and has collected academic classics from various categories and disciplines in my country for 5,000 years, comparable to the "Yongle Ceremony" of the Ming Dynasty.

For authority and sensation, Liu Bo also successfully convinced his mentor Ji Xianlin to be the editor-in-chief of the book.

The launch of the compilation project of "The Book of History" does show that Liu Bo is a man of some ability, but his ability is not ordinary business ability, but a fraud.

The start-up capital of "The Book of the World" was borrowed through a bank loan, and the editor-in-chief deceived the instructor to put the name on it. The money was not paid until the eve of his escape in 2003.

In 1995, the "Collection of Books of History" was unveiled, with a total of 10,000 sets printed, and the market price of each set was 68,000 yuan.

From the perspective of cultural heritage, this series of books naturally has certain social and historical significance.

But from a business perspective, it is 100% impossible to make money.

Liu Bo understood this truth from the very beginning, so he did not tinker with the book collection to sell books, but to gain fame and play capital games.

Last year, he acquired 20.91% of the shares of a poorly managed listed company in Wuhan, becoming its largest shareholder, and renamed it "Chengcheng Culture".

Then he put in the "Collection of Books of History", which made Chengcheng Culture suddenly increase its book profit of more than 50 million yuan out of thin air, and then obtained the operating rights of the girl's fashion magazine "Hope".

With this series of capital operations, Chengcheng's cultural fame increased greatly, and its stock price once rose 4 times, bringing huge wealth to Liu Bo.

Of course, his wealth is only on paper.

In 2003, Liu Bo was suspected of owing 4 billion yuan in loan black holes and ran away from Japan with debts. He was included in the red notice list in 2014, 17

Nian Gu died in Japan.

If the 1980s was a period of wild growth when the grassroots rose, then the 1990s were a period of cultural films like Liu Bo's rampant.

In China's capital market, there are more than Liu Bo who is disguised as a guise of intellectuals.

When Lin Chaoyang was talking to Tao's father, Tao Yucheng walked in from outside and heard the name of "Liu Bo", and he took over the conversation.

"This man had asked me to have dinner before, wearing a double-breasted blue cloth shirt, footwear, and his mouth was the day of the day. The poem said, "

"Have you had dinner with you? Why did you come to my house alone to deliver things to my dad and didn't take you?"

"That man is speechless. I don't think it's reliable. After having an appointment with me, I will avoid him.

There is a Zhang Zuolin's old house in Yude Hutong, do you know? He rented it down and told the public that he bought it, fooling a group of people to sing and sing every night."

Tao Yucheng looks careless and has a lot of friends, but he has been in the Yanjing cultural circle for twenty or thirty years.

But I have never suffered any losses, so I naturally have my own unique principles and cleverness in dealing with things.

He has seen too many big fools like Liu Bo, so how could he be easily fooled?

"It's interesting to me when I look at the newspapers praising Liu Bo, and I don't know if they really don't know or fake.

Do you know how to evaluate Liu Bo in a newspaper?

New Confucian businessman.

Blow, these reporters nowadays, for the little car and bust, they don’t even want their faces.”

Tao Yucheng's tone was rare because he guessed the purpose of Liu Bo deliberately making friends with him and his father.

It is true that the Tao father and son are both professors from colleges and universities, but they are not considered academic masters. The only one that many people are worthy of flattery.

It’s just that there is a daughter/sister like Tao Yushu.

If it were some friends who knew the truth, Tao Yucheng wouldn't mind using his sister's name to help him a little.

But there was a problem with Liu Bo's businessman. Tao Yucheng heard from a friend that this guy had borrowed 8,000 yuan from the bank when he first graduated, but he has not paid it back yet.

How dare he have a person like this? How dare he provide him with resources and convenience?

Listening to Tao Yucheng's story, Tao's father frowned with the word "chuan" and said, "How come Yan Da has such a person?"

"Blind, do you really think Yanda is an ivory tower? Are there still few such things in recent years? If you don't have any trouble, they are just cultural merchants, famous teachers and disciples.

Look, this person has been so serious for a few years." Tao Yucheng said firmly.

"Why?"

"Who do you think are the people entering and leaving his yard? - There are so many people who can't get into it, and his incident can't be discovered."

Tao's father shook his head helplessly, and could only sigh that the world was getting worse.

Tao's father couldn't stand these things in society, and the more he listened, the worse he felt. Lin Chaoyang changed the topic and asked about the follow-up of Tao Xiwen's last visit to Zhou Mei's house.

"Your eldest nephew was stunned for a moment, but the conditions were there. Can other parents not be satisfied?" Tao Yucheng said with satisfaction.

He continued, "Xiao Zhou said that she was planning to take the CET-4 exam recently, so she would not be distracted. We plan to arrange a meeting again on May Day. It is inconvenient for parents to go out now, so it will be time for Xiao Zhou's family to come to Yanjing for two days."

The so-called meeting on May Day naturally means setting the wedding date for the young couple.

Speaking of which, Tao Xiwen is 26 years old this year, which is the age of marriage, but Comrade Xiao Zhou has just turned twenty after the New Year.

Lin Chaoyang suddenly felt that this scene was a bit familiar.

"Xiao Zhou is quite motivated."

Lin Chaoyang refers to Zhou Mei’s CET-4 test. Now, the English test is open to the society.

"Yes. Xiao Zhou is good at this girl, but her education is a little lower, and it is a good thing that she is motivated.

Now when you are in love, you can't see any problems. You can get married later. If the couple has no common topics, it will be a big problem." said Tao's father.

"I want me to tell you, and I will ask Xiao Zhou to quit that job. I will take advantage of the past two years of youth to improve myself."

"The reason is so reasonable, but you can't mention this matter. You have to consider Xiao Zhou's feelings." Tao's father jingled.

"I understand. I think this can be left to Manting. They are of the same age. After they get to know each other, they can make friends."

Tao's father looked relieved, but he didn't expect that Tao Yucheng, who has always been careless, had such a careful side.
