"Brother Xuan, Brother Xuan..." Chen Yina ran into Chen Haoxuan's house, calling out loudly.
"I'm here!" Chen Haoxuan replied loudly from the room where he was counting money.
Chen Yina rushed into Chen Haoxuan's room and saw him holding a thick stack of cash. She couldn't help but joke, "Brother Xuan, did you make a big deal today?" Chen Yina had come home early because Chen Haoxuan was busy, so she didn't look for him but instead helped her mother in the kitchen, quietly supporting Chen Haoxuan. It wasn't until Zhou Xiang and the others had all left that she went to find him.
"Yeah, I sold all the stones I've collected during this time. I made over 1.6 million in total. After deducting my investment, I probably made around a million!" Chen Haoxuan said happily.
"Wow—Brother Xuan, you're amazing! You've made so much money so quickly. Brother Xuan, should we go find your brother and the others? Let them see your skills," Chen Yina suggested. She wanted to stand up for Chen Haoxuan; she had never seen a family like his, one that abandoned their own and often bullied him.
"Forget them. Once I develop slowly, even if I don't go looking for them, they'll know just how capable I am. Hmph, they think they can act superior just because they run a small business. Just wait until I open a big supermarket next to your little shop; let's see if they dare to be so arrogant then," Chen Haoxuan said coldly.
"Yes, Brother Xuan, I believe you can do it! Keep it up," Chen Yina said firmly. She liked Chen Haoxuan and had an instinctive trust in him since childhood. She knew he was actually very smart; it was just that his family treated him poorly, hitting and scolding him, which made the previous version of Chen Haoxuan seem so dull and foolish.
"Nana, I'm planning to open a Mobile Factory in New City. What do you think?" Chen Haoxuan said proudly to Chen Yina.
"Open a Mobile Factory? Brother Xuan, it's not that I'm being nosy, but opening a Mobile Factory is completely different from buying things. You need to understand how to make phones and also manage... You have no experience in these areas. I think it would be better for you to work at the Mobile Factory run by Zhang Tianqi for a while before starting your own," Chen Yina suggested.
Chen Haoxuan stood up, walked over to Chen Yina, and playfully poked her nose with his finger while smiling. "Hehe... Nana, you underestimate me too much. Just because I've been low-key before doesn't mean I can't do anything. I've self-studied all the courses on electronics. Don't even mention making phones; if given the resources— I could even build a root server."
"You're just bragging! You talk as if it's easy. There are only 13 root servers in the world, created with countless people's efforts. If you could make one by yourself, you'd be a god," Chen Yina laughed while covering her mouth. It wasn't that she didn't believe in Chen Haoxuan; it was just that root servers were too advanced for ordinary people to even touch, let alone manufacture.
"You'll find out whether I can or not in the future," Chen Haoxuan said mysteriously with a smile. He was destined to be the Chief Professor; not only could he create root servers from the 21st century but also those from the Future Century.
"Chen Haoxuan said, 'Nana, I will be very busy for a while, so I won't be attending classes. When it's time to eat and I'm not around, you don't have to prepare my meals—understood?' Chen Haoxuan gently told Chen Yina. He felt touched that Chen Yina often waited for him to return before eating, but he also complained that she didn't take care of herself well enough. If he didn't come back, wouldn't she starve?
'Okay, I understand,' Chen Yina replied, her voice tinged with disappointment. She felt that as Chen Haoxuan became smarter, their time together decreased. Now she realized that every advantage comes with a disadvantage. However, if given a choice, she would still choose the current Chen Haoxuan; at least he wasn't someone who could be easily bullied.
That evening, Chen Haoxuan had dinner at Chen Yina's home. During the meal, he briefed her on some business matters. He instructed Chen Yuebin and Li Ping to assist Miao Yuxiang in managing the rural business. As for the online store at New City University, Chen Haoxuan didn't mention it at all because he planned to hand it over to someone else. For now, it was temporarily managed by Chen Yina and Zhang Qing.
The next morning, Chen Haoxuan left Chen Family Village and took a bus back to New City. He realized that making big money was faster in the city because there were more wealthy people there. Upon returning to New City, he called Zhang Tianqi and asked him to drive to the station to pick him up.
Twenty minutes later, Zhang Tianqi arrived in a BMW and waved at Chen Haoxuan, saying, 'Hey buddy, get in.'
Chen Haoxuan hopped into the car and told Zhang Tianqi, 'Let's go to Villa Hotel; I'm treating you to drinks.'
Zhang Tianqi turned around jokingly and said, 'Did you make too much money yesterday and want me to share some of it?'
'I'm not making as much as you! I'm treating you because I want to discuss some business with you. Just drive; we'll talk when we get to Villa Hotel,' Chen Haoxuan replied with a wry smile. Zhang Tianqi was a rich second-generation heir who didn't like studying, so he started doing business early on. His family owned Mobile City in many places, but he was only responsible for New City. Perhaps because of his youth, his family didn't dare entrust all their business to him.
Zhang Tianqi drove fast, and after about ten minutes, they arrived at Villa Hotel. In a private room at Villa Hotel, Chen Haoxuan ordered an extravagant feast along with a bottle of red wine worth over ten thousand. He believed that when doing big things, one shouldn't be too frugal.
'Haoxuan, why are you being so generous today? Come on, tell me if there's something important you need my help with,' Zhang Tianqi pressed.
'There is something important, but it's not about help—it's about collaboration. I've recently developed a phone called the All-Purpose Phone. It has MP4 functionality, a touchscreen interface, and it's a smart phone. I guarantee that once this phone is released, everyone who loves using phones will go crazy for it. Oh, I forgot to mention—the camera has 12 million pixels and is clearer than most cameras,' Chen Haoxuan explained.
Hearing this, Zhang Tianqi exclaimed in disbelief, 'No way! Are you kidding me? Is there really such an amazing phone? You should know that MP4 is still under development; no one else has made it yet! You developed it all by yourself? And it's a touchscreen smart phone? Is this for real?' Zhang Tianqi's family made money from phones; he understood the industry better than anyone else. They not only sold phones but also produced and developed them. Although they mostly worked on generic brands, developing phones required strong capabilities. Yet here was Chen Haoxuan claiming he had developed an All-Purpose Phone—how could he possibly believe it?"
