Chapter 477 - 479: Engagement
Chapter 477: Chapter 479: Engagement
The whole family had lunch together at noon.
Mr. Xu began by asking Mr. and Mrs. Qin, “Do you think it’s too early to talk about engagement now?”
Qin Hao and Xu Siyao were startled, engagement?
Wow, so soon?
Qin Youguo and Li Shujie were also taken aback, but Li Shujie said with a smile, “We have no objections.”
Mr. Xu, “Then it’s settled. We’ll pick a good day and then we’ll decide on the children’s engagement.”
...
With Qin Hao’s limitless potential, and since Xu Siyao was wholeheartedly devoted to him, Mr. Xu felt it would be best to settle things sooner rather than later.
Qin Hao didn’t say much; things had reached this point so he just had to go along with it.
Xu Siyao’s cheeks were slightly flushed, and she was actually very happy, keeping her head down, not daring to look at Qin Hao.
She could hardly believe that she was engaged to Qin Hao, that she was now his fiancée.
In the afternoon, just after two, Qin Hao’s family left Xu Jiekang’s home.
Mr. Xu’s family saw them to the door, as they were now relatives through marriage.
Qin Youguo had drunk quite a bit, his cheeks rosy with alcohol, “Mr. Xu, you go back first; I’ll pick a good day, and then we’ll arrange the engagement.”
“Alright, take it easy on the road,” Mr. Xu nodded slightly.
Qin Hao’s motorcade left, and Mr. Xu turned to look at his granddaughter, Xu Siyao’s face red and shy, adorable, “Thank you, Grandpa.”
Mr. Xu sighed, “What should I say about you, ah, you’re really worrying me.”
…
When Qin Hao’s family got home, Mr. and Mrs. Qin began to select an auspicious date to prepare for the engagement.
Upon seeing Mr. and Mrs. Qin flipping through the old lunar calendar, Han Meng asked curiously, “Uncle, Aunt, what are you doing?”
“Looking for a good day to set the engagement for Xiao Hao,” Mr. Qin said with a smile.
He was very pleased with Xu Siyao as a daughter-in-law; she was beautiful, virtuous, came from a well-connected family, and would be a help to Qin Hao.
She was simply the perfect match tailored for Qin Hao.
Han Meng was surprised and then said with a smile, “Really? What needs to be prepared? I’ll go buy it.”
Qin Youguo, “No need for now, your aunt and I will first look at the dates,”
Li Shujie remembered a matter and asked, “Are we following the traditions of our hometown or the customs of Gujing City for the engagement?”
“Let’s follow our hometown’s customs; after all, she’s marrying into our family,” Qin Youguo replied.
Li Shujie looked at Qin Hao, “What did Xiao Hao say?”
“Just go with whatever my dad says; I’m hands-off.” Qin Hao was sitting on the sofa with a bit of a headache.
He was feeling uneasy, having not expected Mr. Xu to bring up the engagement today.
He and Xu Siyao were just freshmen, still young; this was all happening too quickly.
After pondering for a while, Qin Hao decided not to think about the issue further; he was more concerned about the affairs of the Jiangshan Group.
He wanted to merge Huafei Clothing Company and Huamei Company into the Jiangshan Group.
Thinking of Tianmei Skincare, Qin Hao hurried into the study room, where he opened the system mall.
Then he exchanged for a set of skincare product development technologies called Tianmei Skincare.
This skincare had different effects than Tianli Cosmetics, with better results for acne removal, blemish removal, and scar healing.
Using Tianmei and Tianli skincare products together would yield even better results.
After spending five thousand achievement points to complete the exchange, Qin Hao began looking for the appropriate skincare product.
Tianmei Skincare for the middle-aged and elderly: anti-aging, wrinkle reduction, and hydrating moisturization.
Tianmei Skincare Children’s Line: Nurtures children’s skin, maintaining continuous hydration and smoothness.
Qin Hao redeemed the research and development technologies for these three types as well, including Tianmei Men’s Skincare.
The four skincare R&D technologies together consumed twenty thousand of his achievement points, leaving him with only one hundred and thirty thousand points now.
Qin Hao stayed in his study, writing down all the details of these R&D technologies.
That afternoon, Jiangshan Group’s revenue from the previous month was finalized.
Jiangshan Delicatessen’s revenue was nearly seven hundred million, with a profit of one hundred and eighty million. The same amount was reinvested in development, leaving the company with a liquid capital of thirty million.
Xinghui Wine exceeded seven hundred million in turnover, with an even higher profit of two hundred and ten million. An Linxuan retained one hundred and ten million.
The remaining billion was transferred to Qin Hao’s account.
Huafei Clothing’s profits were around sixty million, all of which was reinvested into development, while Huamei Skincare suffered losses for the month.
Yuan Kang Pharmaceutical Group didn’t earn much, and since Qin Hao only held a twenty percent share, he barely received twenty million.
These added up to around four hundred and seventy million, but the money that reached his account was only one hundred and twenty million.
Most of it he had invested in the companies’ development.
Xinghai High-tech Company made a profit of three and a half billion four hundred million. Although recently established, the profit capability was extremely terrifying.
This was the frightening advantage of advanced high-tech technologies.
Even though Xinghai High-tech made substantial profits, the cost of launching a single production line was also quite high, often several hundred million.
“Congratulations to the host for completing the main task, awarding five hundred thousand achievement points and one random item.”
“Drawing random item now…”
“Congratulations to the host on obtaining ten free attribute points.”
“Stage main task initiated, the company’s monthly profit to reach ten billion, reward one million achievement points, random item.”
Qin Hao felt somewhat deflated, for he thought he might draw some game-changing black tech, but it turned out to be just attribute points.
Last time he had drawn a Laser Pistol, whose power was truly formidable; Tang Qi died under the blast of his Laser Pistol.
After distributing the attribute points, he stood up and left the study. Then, he informed his parents in the living room before he left.
“I’m heading to Huamei Cosmetics,” Qin Hao said.
On the way, he took out his mobile phone and called Zhao Dongqiang, “Mr. Zhao, prepare yourselves, I am planning to merge Huafei Company into Jiangshan Group.”
Zhao Dongqiang paused, “Mr. Qin, how do we proceed with this merger?”
Qin Hao replied, “To be a subsidiary under Jiangshan Group, but nothing else will change for now.”
His intention was to enhance the influence of both Jiangshan Group and himself.
At four o’clock in the afternoon, Qin Hao arrived at Huamei Cosmetics Company.
Both Su Mingzhi and Su Meilan were in the office; Su Meilan had been learning management under her father for some time and was quite skilled now.
“Mr. Qin,” Su Mingzhi was startled to see him enter.
Su Meilan quickly poured Qin Hao a cup of tea, “Mr. Qin, please have some water.”
Qin Hao nodded, “Miss Su, no need to be so polite. Mr. Su, this is the new product development technology.
Another matter is about merging Huamei Company into Jiangshan Group; we must finalize the process as quickly as possible.”
“Understood, Mr. Qin,” Su Mingzhi took the USB drive and nodded.
At that moment, Qin Hao’s phone rang; it was a call from He Tingting, “Mr. Qin, the research has yielded results, come over and have a look.”
“I’ll be right there.” After hanging up, Qin Hao stood up and said, “Mr. Su, Miss Su, please continue with your work, I have to leave for another matter.”
