Reaching the age of thirty, my income randomly doubled

Chapter 116: Chapter 102: Enter the Circle



Jiang Peiyao's dormitory was tiny.

In one room, there were six people, bunk beds style.

She didn't have many belongings, just two people could easily carry them over.

Chen Pingsheng was waiting below, and after a little while, when they came down with her things, he was ready to drive off.

Previously, the place he rented wasn't too far from here, but he moved to Shijingshan after the conditions had improved.

Jiang Peiyao also got in the car, the Black King Kong was a bit exaggerated, she even seemed a bit nervous after sitting down.

Guo Wen was also quick-witted, immediately running over to find her.

"Peiyao, can I come with you?"

She had realized that this small, broken factory wasn't going anywhere. Following Jiang Peiyao, she surely would be exposed to a much broader world.

Jiang Peiyao glanced at Chen Pingsheng, Guo Wen was her only friend in Capital City.

She really wanted to go out with her.

Chen Pingsheng nodded, allowing her to get in the car. Guo Wen, not wanting to waste time, decided to leave her things in the dormitory.

The group set off.

This place was a village in the city, the roads weren't even asphalt, but rather the earliest type of rural roads.

They weren't full of potholes, nor were they completely smooth.

Chen An'an was still intoxicated in her own "cool and heroic" antics from earlier, sitting in the front passenger seat.

She stood up, looking at Jiang Peiyao and asked, "Auntie, wasn't I amazing just now?"

"You still have the nerve to ask?"

Chen Pingsheng couldn't bear it and turned to ask her, "What's with this straw hat? It wouldn't cost more than five yuan in our village, and you spent over eight thousand on this thing, are you foolish?"

Chen An'an felt that her dad was becoming worse at speaking. Was this really the time to discuss the price of hats?

Still, she explained, "Dad, this is what my classmate called 'cool-chic', isn't over eight thousand pretty normal?"

"Normal my ass." Chen Pingsheng swore, "Just adding 'cool-chic' doesn't change it from a straw hat, and your leather pants, eleven thousand, are you stupid?"

She had her own pocket money, and Chen Pingsheng usually didn't control her spending.

But what mainly bothered him was spending so much money to buy these ugly things.

He just couldn't stand it.

The Little Fart Kid completely lacked a proper sense of taste.

Chen An'an ignored him, huffily reveling in her charming entrance just moments before.

Jiang Peiyao and this cousin-father didn't meet often, only during festive occasions at their grandfather's home.

She knew they were wealthy, but had no idea they were THIS wealthy.

Chen An'an's casual shopping could amount to their half-year's salary.

This was really outrageous.

"Brother-in-law, how is my cousin doing right now?"

"She's due to give birth at the end of next month, she's still at home resting up."

Chen Pingsheng also asked her, "By the way, why didn't you call ahead before coming to Capital City?"

"I didn't expect my phone to be stolen on the train. It's my own incompetence."

Jiang Peiyao lowered her head, a bit embarrassed.

"That's nothing to worry about," Chen Pingsheng consoled. "You just haven't traveled much before. What are your plans after arriving in Capital City?"

"I want to find a job here, to work and earn money at the same time."

Chen Pingsheng observed her appearance, she was quite beautiful for her young age, with clear, curved eyelashes and a cherry-like small mouth, complemented by her excellent figure.

He said, "You're quite suited for the entertainment industry."

"What?" Jiang Peiyao knew she was beautiful, but she had never considered a career in the entertainment industry.

Mainly because she never dared to think about it. Being from a rural area without much education, how could she entertain thoughts about entering the entertainment industry?

"Auntie, you look so beautiful! My dad owns an entertainment company, and my tutor is also a big star. You can become a big star in the future as well."

Jiang Peiyao hardly dared to dream of such things, but she was still very surprised.

After arriving at their home, Song Yanxi came out to welcome her younger cousin.

Jiang Peiyao had been beautiful since she was young.

Many liked her in the village and at school; everywhere she went, she turned heads.

"Cousin."

Jiang Peiyao was delighted to finally meet her cousin.

As for Guo Wen beside her, she was already numb to everything.

Driving around in luxury cars, living in a large mansion, this new friend of hers really had a wealthy family connection.

"Peiyao, you come to Capital City and don't visit your cousin first. If you do this next time, I won't let it slide."

"Got it, cousin."

Jiang Peiyao held her hand and giggled. She had always loved clinging to her older cousin since she was little.

It was the same even now.

"You guys haven't eaten yet, right? Let me call Gao Hu, and we can all go to Fei Yangyang together."

Song Wu was also there, and so was his sister Chen Qi. With so many people, they didn't want to hassle with cooking at home.

Going out to eat was more convenient.

After Gao Hu returned the car to him, he went to drive the Porsche Cayenne.

Since Song Yanxi couldn't drive now, Chen Pingsheng had lent him the car for the time being.

Fei Yangyang had already opened five branches in Shijingshan, and in July, they would simultaneously launch another five branches in the second ring road area.

He now simply maintained the standard of investing ten million each month.

Until the end of the year.

By noon, Fei Yangyang was doing great business; there were even lines of customers waiting.

They naturally did not have to wait; a large private room had been reserved for them.

Chen Pingsheng told them to order whatever they wanted since it was their own restaurant.

Jiang Peiyao, who liked fish, ordered a chopped chili fish head.

Song Wu, who preferred pork, thought the Dongpo pork knuckle here was particularly good.

His wife couldn't eat very spicy food now, so he ordered two bowls of plain congee.

As for Chen An'an, there's no need to say much; she liked everything her Uncle Gao Hu cooked.

As long as her dad made it, not commenting and just eating a bowl was proof enough that it was the best.

Usually, she'd have at least two bowls.

Her actions plainly showed that her dad's cooking skills were slightly lacking.

Chen Qi had been looking at properties recently. Last month, Water Cloud Space made a big deal, and this month she could split at least ten million.

That's the power of owning 25% of the shares.

This was after setting aside thirty million as a risk fund for the store.

That is, from last month's cash flow, they put aside thirty million right off the bat, and there were about forty million left.

"Sister-in-law, should I buy my third apartment in the second ring, or is Shijingshan still a good choice?"

"The property prices around the second ring area have already reached over fifty thousand heading towards sixty thousand, and Shijingshan is almost at thirty thousand now."

Song Yanxi thought for a moment, "You're better off buying in the second ring; it's more convenient for you to live in the future. Since you already have two apartments in Shijingshan, there's no need to buy another one here."

Chen Pingsheng looked at his younger sister, "Chen Qi, I've noticed that you've really been getting richer lately, huh?"

Chen Qi chuckled, "Isn't it all thanks to your great guidance, brother? In this lifetime, I'm utterly in awe of you, like the vast and endless river,"

"Cut that out,"

Chen Pingsheng put down his toothpick, "That's not going to work; what's the use of earning so much money when you're not even married? I tell you, if some jerk ends up benefiting from it I'd be unhappy. If you ever find a boyfriend without my approval, you must break it off immediately."

Marrying the right person is extremely important for a woman.

His sister's situation now was somewhat complicated.

In Capital City, those with good conditions look down on people from outside, their sense of superiority is outrageous.

Those locals with average conditions earn just seven to eight thousand in salary, entirely relying on their family's housing, inherently lazy.

Such people definitely couldn't match with her.

It's troubling.

He couldn't think of anyone suitable for his sister, who was already quite wealthy at a young age.

"Brother, don't worry, I definitely won't blindly choose,"

"It's good that you understand."

Chen Pingsheng also likewise reminded Jiang Peiyao; she was truly beautiful, almost catching up to her older cousin from her youth.

Even in the talent-filled entertainment industry, her beauty stood strong.

Not to say she was far ahead, but she was definitely top-tier.

Guo Wen was really stumped, and had been silent, casually listening and learning from the conversation.

Having a wealthy relative was totally different; they effortlessly made everyone around them wealthier.

It was obvious.

Since he specifically reminded Jiang Peiyao, that meant he really valued her.

Otherwise, he probably wouldn't have said anything, just like he hadn't mentioned his younger aunt's daughter.

It's unclear what was going on there.

Chen Pingsheng thought for a moment and then said, "Peiyao, you're still young. There are many scumbags in Capital City, so just stay at my place for now. I'll have someone coach you in acting; later on, you can enter the entertainment industry. Tengying Entertainment has just signed an artist; I'll sign you up to be her apprentice."

Starting there was already a high starting point; entering the circle with a big company's support.

With personal guidance as well.

Chen Pingsheng truly felt she had the potential to be a star, and even a big star at that.

With such looks, which man wouldn't be captivated?

First, she had to be protected, later she could be of great help to him in making advances.

As for how far she could go, that was up to her own fate.

"As for your friend, come along too; start as an assistant."

Guo Wen's looks were quite ordinary; she definitely couldn't play a lead role.

If she worked hard enough, she could be a decent supporting character in the entertainment industry.

Both of them entering the circle together would mean they had each other for support.

Speaking of which, it was about time his Tengying Entertainment started its own artist training program.

Training several famous personalities would also increase Tengying's valuation in the future.

Making money in the entertainment industry was like cheating; it didn't happen by chance.

Earning big money still depended on Tengying's future market valuation.

With a few words, he arranged his wife's younger cousin's future, a bit domineering yet like a head of the family.

Nobody objected.

They were too young to know what choices to make.

If his sister didn't listen to him and carelessly chose a boyfriend, he would definitely cut off all her financial resources.
