Chapter 299: Jiang Dong is Amazing
Chapter 299: Jiang Dong is Amazing
"Haha..."
Jiang Xia burst into laughter in the Pig's Foot Vinegar's embrace!
Zhou Chenglei helplessly hugged her and patted her back.
Was it that funny? She was laughing so hard she was gasping for breath.
He was telling the truth.
He was jealous, but he didn't show it.
He was jealous of himself, but he didn't let the sour mood spread.
"Stop laughing."
"Alright, I won't laugh. Let's go! We're going to eat Pig's Foot Vinegar." Jiang Xia held her stomach and walked downstairs.
She couldn't help but laugh until her stomach hurt.
Zhou Chenglei supported her, and Jiang Xia was still wearing high heels, so he was worried she might fall, "Do you want to rest for a bit before we go?"
"No need!"
It was all his fault, saying out of the blue that Pig's Foot Vinegar was sweet vinegar and not sour!
It was hilarious!
"Should I carry you?" After standing all morning, she must be tired, right?
"What if someone sees us?"
"I'll put you down if someone comes."
"Okay!"
So, Zhou Chenglei carried her down the stairs, step by step, moving very slowly.
It was confirmed; this bowl of Pig's Foot Vinegar was indeed sweet and not sour.
First Floor
Ye Xian ran down with red eyes, passing by Jiang Dong's booth. She paused and glared at him before wiping her eyes and running off.
That glare seemed to carry a thousand grievances with no one to confide in.
Jiang Dong was explaining the vacuum-sealed packaging compressor to a group of foreign merchants when he suddenly met Ye Xian's aggrieved gaze.
Jiang Dong: ??
What's going on? What does this mean?
Did she go and hit his sister again, only to be hit back by her?
Jiang Dong was a little worried about Jiang Xia, but when he remembered that his brother-in-law had just walked by to find his sister, he felt relieved!
His sister should be fine! Then he didn't have time to worry about Ye Xian and continued explaining to the foreign merchants.
Jiang Dong was a child with a strong sense of responsibility, determined to the core.
He had a clear idea of his responsibilities, and for those within his scope, he was unwaveringly dedicated.
But Ye Xian had already stepped out of his responsibility, and he no longer had to worry about her.
Moreover, after Ye Xian hit his sister, and his brother-in-law spoke up, his father also hinted in a recent phone call that Ye Xian wasn't suitable for their family, so he had completely removed her from his responsibilities.
Country first, family second, and personal matters last—this was his principle of responsibility, deeply ingrained in him since childhood by his father's disciplinary ruler.
So, now Jiang Dong had an even greater responsibility—he must promote this vacuum-sealed packaging compressor and earn foreign exchange for the country!
With so many foreign merchants around, how could he have time to think about anything else? He didn't even have time to eat! The foreign friends' chatter had completely captured Jiang Dong's attention.
After running for a while, Ye Xian turned back to look. She saw Jiang Dong seriously explaining the operation of the machine to the foreign friends, as if nothing had happened!
If it were before, he would have chased after her the moment he saw her being wronged. Even if he didn't have time to catch up, he would have worried and kept his eyes on her.
But now, he had no reaction at all?
Ye Xian felt a deep sense of crisis. Indeed, she shouldn't have acted on impulse and hit Jiang Xia the last time.
Ye Xian glanced at Jiang Dong again, and seeing that he truly wasn't looking her way, she returned to the rest area.
Yang Min and Zhu Qingqing were having lunch, and they were discussing Jiang Dong.
Yang Min: "I never expected Jiang Dong to be so amazing, selling nearly three thousand units in one morning."
Someone asked, "What's the use of this vacuum-sealed packaging compressor? Why are so many foreign merchants buying it?"
Yang Min: "I heard it's used for food packaging, and it seems it can be used for packing nuts and biscuits without leaking air or water. I don't really know; I've never heard of it before. I'm just repeating what the seniors from our school's Mechanical Engineering Department told me. Even they say Jiang Dong is amazing."
"Zhu Qingqing, Jiang Dong is amazing. He even set up a sealed bag production line, all by himself! And he's only in his second year of university!"
"Yes, many people have bought that production line too!"
Ye Xian could no longer hold back and interrupted the two, "What are you talking about?"
Yang Min noticed Ye Xian's red eyes and asked, "What's wrong? Have you been crying?"
"It's nothing. I had a misunderstanding with Sister Jiang Dong."
Yang Min became slightly upset, "Did she hit you again?"
Zhu Qingqing remained silent, only looking at Ye Xian.
"No, it was my misunderstanding. It's not her fault," Ye Xian shook her head, looking as if she had been wronged and didn't want to talk about it. She changed the subject, "What were you saying about Jiang Dong just now? What machine did he create?"
Yang Min excitedly replied, "I just heard about it too. Jiang Dong is so incredible. He invented some kind of vacuum sealed packaging compressor, and he sold over two thousand units in one morning! Many foreign merchants, overseas Chinese, and merchants from Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan are all rushing to place orders. They say this machine is more convenient and practical than the foreign vacuum machines! And it's smaller in size too... They also say it can create unlimited business opportunities."
Zhu Qingqing looked at Ye Xian, "We heard from Senior Brother that Jiang Dong collaborated with the Machinery Factory to produce it. He holds a technical stake and will receive a 20% dividend on the profits. Initially, the Machinery Factory wanted to buy Jiang Dong's technology for 500,000 yuan, but Jiang Dong didn't agree. He wanted a technical stake and only wanted the dividends."
Ye Xian: "..."
Five hundred thousand?!
She thought even five hundred yuan was a lot!
What did five hundred thousand even mean?
Yang Min nodded, "Senior Brother also said that Jiang Dong is too smart. He even applied for a patent, both domestically and internationally. He applied for the patent soon after the National Patent Office was established."
"What's a patent?" Ye Xian had never heard of it.
Yang Min: "I don't fully understand it either. Senior Brother said that once you apply for a patent, your invention is protected, and others can't use it without paying you. If they want to use your technology, they have to pay you for it. He said a patented technology is like a golden egg-laying hen! Anyway, Senior Brother said Jiang Dong is going to be rich! With dividends and patents, he'll have money even without working. Think about it! If he sold over two thousand units in one morning, isn't he going to be rich?"
Ye Xian's heart trembled slightly: Over two thousand units, a 20% dividend... How much money would Jiang Dong make?
"How much does one of those machines sell for?"
Ye Xian was so excited that she couldn't even remember the name of the machine.
Yang Min: "It's around one thousand dollars, I think. Anyway, the transaction amount for one morning was over two hundred and twenty thousand dollars. It's amazing! It's no less impressive than many machine tools!"
Zhu Qingqing looked at Ye Xian, "The two hundred thousand is just the transaction amount, not the net profit. But Senior Brother said the profit margin should be good, and Jiang Dong will likely make a lot of money."
Ye Xian couldn't help but laugh.
Yang Min: "Jiang Dong also developed a packaging bag production line! Although that production line didn't sell as much as the vacuum machine, it seems he only sold over twenty units. But that's still impressive, and that production line is quite expensive, costing over five thousand dollars per line! And there are still many buyers! Xiao Xian, Jiang Dong is so amazing!"
Ye Xian smiled and nodded, "He's indeed very capable."
Zhu Qingqing: "It's a pity you broke up with Jiang Dong. Otherwise, wouldn't it be great? Right?"
"..."
These words instantly brought Ye Xian back to reality!
Yes!
It was a pity that she and Jiang Dong had broken up!
Otherwise, it would have been wonderful!
Now that they've broken up, Jiang Dong's money has nothing to do with her!
If she had known that the things Jiang Dong was researching in the lab were so valuable, even if Jiang Fu had gotten into trouble, she wouldn't have broken up with him.
She really regretted it!
