Reaching the age of thirty, my income randomly doubled

Chapter 42: Elder Sister Chen Yao

After Big Sister Chen Yao arrived, she naturally stayed in their small villa.

There was still an empty room on the first floor, right next to Chen Qi’s.

The small villa wasn’t too big, but it felt very spacious, accommodating over a dozen people.

When she arrived in her Navigator, Chen Yao thought the car was nice and that if she used it for Didi, it could surely join the ranks of luxury vehicles.

The charges would be much higher.

It was rare for the whole family to gather, so Song Yanxi went to cook herself, and Chen Pingsheng also listened to his big sister talk about her own affairs.

At her age, what she talked about the most was naturally her children.

For some reason, despite being from the same family, her two kids were extremely talented at academics.

They didn’t need much nagging, always ranking in the top ten of the entire school.

They had never fallen below that, which made Chen Pingsheng envious.

He almost asked what they ate and drank every day.

Although Chen An’an was still young, her academic talent was already showing, but ranking near the top was unlikely.

Whether she could make it to the middle depended entirely on the teacher’s help.

Wasn’t the difference too big?

“Big Sister, how do you teach them?”

“I don’t really teach them. What can someone with only a primary school education teach?”

Envy, pure envy.

Big Sister had finished primary school, and her husband was about the same.

Both were of similar educational levels, neither highly educated.

Yet their children had exceptionally good academic performance. Could this be the fabled fate, luck, and geomancy?

Sometimes, it’s hard not to believe in these seemingly nonsensical things.

Big Sister didn’t have much experience anyway, and her children were still just in primary school.

There was still middle school, high school, and university to go.

Being able to do well in high school and enter a good university would truly indicate a talent for learning.

“Little Brother, just one child isn’t enough for you, right?”

“We’re definitely thinking of having another one this year.”

As the talent of the elder one was already evident, the only option left was to try for a younger one to save face.

Song Yanxi cooked quite quickly. It was just a few days ago, on the fifteenth of September, when the dividends were distributed.

She received the lowest record for the past half-year.

The total from all the stores that ended up in her hands was only one hundred and thirty thousand.

Of course, part of it was because the Shijingshan store had just opened, but the key reason was that her husband had given away half of his dividend shares.

Her income had truly halved overnight.

However, while they had less on their side, the employees were exceptionally excited.

The company suddenly started paying out more than double the wages.

With various bonuses and rewards, their monthly income was now comparable to two and a half months’ worth before.

The employees were happy, which also helped her to understand a bit better.

Whatever she lost here, she could only make up for by speculating in real estate.

After more than a month of property speculation, she indeed formed a set of business operations for it.

Now, during the meal, she shared her strategy with Big Sister Chen Yao.

Chen Pingsheng felt she was ignoring reality. If Big Sister had the means to speculate in property in the Capital City,

would she need to travel all the way from Sha City to rely on him?

“Yanxi, are you addicted to buying houses?”

“Wrong.” Song Yanxi rebutted with conviction, “I’m addicted to making money. Big Sister, you have no idea. Last month, I bought a two hundred square meter apartment in the Dongcheng District along the second ring. The price was forty-one thousand per square meter when I bought it. It hasn’t been long, and the price in that community has already risen by more than a thousand. I made thirty to forty thousand just lying at home.”

“Our family will have another big recharge event in October, and I estimate we could get a few million in November. By then, I’m definitely going back there to speculate on property.”

Chen Qi said, “Sister-in-law, it’s because of people like you that housing prices are driven up.”

“You don’t understand,” Song Yanxi countered, “What we’re doing is nothing. Go check out those big conglomerates. Their legitimate businesses aren’t doing that well, but when it comes to real estate speculation, they’re really fierce.”

Speculating in property has never been about actual needs.

But people like them no longer needed to buy a house for living.

They are fiercely speculating in real estate.

It’s a financial product, those with the ability and means are all playing this relay race.

The real unlucky ones are those who buy a single property and honestly pay off the mortgage—the essential buyers.

Even more unlucky are those who buy at the peak of the market.

After a meal, Chen Yao felt a profound difference between herself and her sister-in-law.

It wasn’t that Song Yanxi was doing it on purpose, but when the gap was so blatant, casual topics could bring about such feelings.

For Chen Yao, making a steady ten to twenty thousand a month would be quite good.

For the current Song Yanxi, ten to twenty thousand a month, that’s not even a matter, right?

She probably didn’t even know how to seriously make that ten to twenty thousand.

Just knew that by casually buying a property, it could gain tens of thousands in a month.

Therefore, she was seriously sharing her money-making experience.

It was Pingsheng who saw clearly; if his eldest sister really wanted to stay in Capital City and develop her career, he would naturally arrange it.

If she went back to Sha City, at the very least, he would give her a property.

The reason for not gifting a car was that, for most families, a car is just a consumable.

As long as it’s functional.

What’s there to talk about comfort?

Chen Qi, the younger sister, was different. She had her own goals, set on recruiting staff to open a beauty salon.

As long as she could get the beauty salon up and running, her income would certainly not be low.

In the afternoon, Song Yanxi drove the Panamera, taking her eldest sister to visit various parts of Capital City.

The difference between the capital of a country and the capital of a province was naturally very clear.

This difference was most evident in housing prices.

The small apartment within the third ring that was not very big had already been decided by Chen Pingsheng to be given to Chen Qi.

This was also the last big present he was giving to his sister as her brother.

By resolving the issues of housing and transportation in Capital City for his younger sister, her future quality of life wouldn’t be too poor.

The apartment was considered small only when compared to their family villa.

Song Yanxi also took her big sister Chen Yao to see with her own eyes that the house was fully furnished with exquisite decorations.

With such high real estate prices in Capital City, surely these homeowners wouldn’t just hastily decorate after purchasing.

An eighty-square-meter apartment with two bedrooms, one living room, and a large balcony—fully equipped and delicately decorated.

If Chen Qi wanted to move in, she could do so at any time.

She was not this generous with her own sister.

A house worth several millions was given just like that, and with housing prices still on the rise, it could be worth ten million someday.

In less than half a year after coming to Capital City, Chen Qi inexplicably had everything.

So, she was also very hopeful for her big sister and her family to come over as well.

Here, for sure, it would be more promising than paying a mortgage in Sha City.

The third ring was already close to the center of Capital City.

The dazzling allure of prosperity and desire—a collection of high-end office buildings and big corporations.

The current Tengsheng Group was still confined within the fourth ring.

With the development momentum they had now, it was only a matter of time before they would make their way into this third ring area.

Even more ambitiously, some dreamed of having their own headquarters within the third ring.

At that time, it would indeed be a moment of great pride.

A feeling that everyone could brag about for a while.

Chen Qi felt this day was very possible; Song Yanxi had not thought about it.

What she mainly thought about was buying up an entire residential complex.

However, big sister Chen Yao’s heart was already swaying, even if not for herself, then for her two young children.

The educational resources in Capital City were not something Sha City could compare with.

There’s a vast difference there.
